Reaching the pinnacle from Doupo

Chapter 408 Entering the Ruins
"Hey, let's talk business!" Lin Yuan coughed dryly and brought the topic back: "On the way here just now, I noticed that some monsters were coming here. Has the existence of this ruin been discovered by someone?"

"Yes!" The little medical fairy nodded to confirm Lin Yuan's guess, and then told him the details.

"In fact, when Qinglin and I came to the Beast Territory two months ago, there were some signs of the space seal being exposed. After we came here this time, the signs are much more obvious!"

"However, according to our observations and calculations, it will take several years for the seal to naturally dissipate..."

"According to the information we received, several Warcraft families near the Skeleton Mountain Range once tried to work together to block the information about the ruins. However, the truth will eventually come out, and the fact that there are ruins here was finally leaked half a month ago..."

"Over the past half month, powerful members of the Warcraft clan from other places have been coming here to investigate."

"However, so far, no truly powerful person has come to investigate. The strongest person is only a Tiger Tribe Three Star Dou Zun who came the other day."

"That three-star Dou Zun from the Tiger Clan was quite impatient. He actually tried to force his way in. As expected, he was met with a fierce counterattack from the space seal, and was severely injured and on the verge of death."

"Because of this incident, things have become much quieter here. All the tribes are mainly watching and waiting, with no intention of actively entering."

"We have been observing and testing here for several days, and we have discovered some patterns." After a pause, the Little Medical Fairy's eyes became more serious, "Whether the space seal will counterattack depends on the intruder's cultivation level..."

"The situation is just as Sister Xiao Yixian said!" Qinglin took over the conversation and informed the results of the investigation.

"I've had my followers experiment. When a Dou Zun breaks in, he will trigger different levels of counterattacks based on his cultivation. For those below the Dou Zun, no counterattack will be triggered."

"But the ancient ruins are full of dangers. There are powerful ancient corpses guarding them, and there are some strange and bizarre mechanisms. Even a Dou Zun strongman may not be able to escape unscathed. It is difficult for people below the Dou Zun to survive."

"Although I have controlled some Dou Zong followers to go in with Zi Yan's cooperation, I still haven't found much useful information and still know very little about the situation inside."

At this point, Qinglin frowned slightly, and there was a hint of distress and worry in his voice.

Without sufficient intelligence, it would be extremely dangerous to rashly break into the unopened remains of the Dou Sheng. The differences between each star of the Dou Sheng are huge, and the danger levels of the remains of a one-star Dou Sheng and a nine-star Dou Sheng are obviously not on the same level.

“Don’t worry!” Lin Yuan waved his hand and said calmly: “I have already found the owner of this relic in Danta’s database. There is no need to worry too much…”

The Little Medical Fairy was a little surprised: "You know the identity of the owner of the ruins? Which powerful person is it?"

Lin Yuan smiled slightly, relying on the information from his previous life in his mind, and revealed: "This relic should have been left by the Saint of Creation!"

"According to the information I have found, the Saint of Creation was a three-star Dousheng from long ago, and his famous skill was the Great Heavenly Creation Palm. Based on the experience of many ruins that have appeared in the past, as long as we can get in, the dangers in the ruins will not exceed the scope of our strength to deal with."

"Even if something goes wrong, Zi Yan can use the space jade slip and summon the Great Elder Qingshan of Donglong Island to solve any problem."

"That's good!" Qing Lin heaved a sigh of relief after hearing that and his slightly frowned brows relaxed.

"Oh, right, sir. As you instructed, I have set up a surveillance network with the ruins as the center. I have also set up sensing nodes at some nodes along the way for all the Warcraft families within three hours' walk from here."

"If there really is a strong person who notices something and rushes over here, I am 90% sure that I can sense it in advance."

"Three hours? That's enough!" Lin Yuan thought about it for a moment, nodded, and said to everyone, "Let's go, take me to see the situation. After I confirm it with my own eyes, I will make specific arrangements for the treasure hunt in the ruins..."

Soon, several streaks of light flew out from the dark clouds and headed towards the bone-covered mountains below.
-
Three days later, Skeleton Mountains.

In the center of the mountain range is a huge basin that is a thousand miles wide. This basin is filled with skeletons. From a distance, it looks like a sea of ​​bones, which is dazzling and horrifying.

In the center of the sea of ​​bones is a mysterious space with slightly twisted arcs, which is the entrance to the Fighting Saint ruins.

Near the center of the mountain range, there are many peaks standing tall.

On one of the peaks, four figures, one man and three women, stood quietly, looking into the distance at the distorted space not far away.

"Qing'er, Xiao Yixian, Zi Yan, let's work together to seal this place... prepare to clear the area!"

Turning around, Lin Yuan looked at the person in front of him seriously and said in a deep voice.

After saying that, his eyes became stern, and he stretched out his hands, forming a series of mysterious hand seals smoothly. The three women who were connected to his energy did not hesitate at all, and formed exactly the same hand seals as he did while flipping the hand seals.

"Space blockade!" Accompanied by a low shout, a mysterious wave suddenly spread out with the distorted space as the center, and the space began to wriggle and twist violently.

In just a few minutes, a huge space barrier covered and blocked the Skeleton Basin within a radius of 100 miles.

Lin Yuan tilted his head and looked at Qing Lin: "Qing'er, clear the area!"

Hearing this, Qing Lin nodded in understanding, green light flashing in her eyes. Nearly a hundred black shadows emitting a cold aura appeared behind her strangely, and the powerful aura of either Dou Zun or Dou Zong swept out in an instant.

"The Netherworld Sky-trapping Formation!"

Qinglin's handprint changed, and a surging cold black fog surged out from the bodies of his followers, covering the area within a hundred miles.

"What's going on? What is this?"

"What is this black mist? For some reason, I have a bad feeling..."

"Space barrier, a space barrier has been set up here."

"Oh no, under the cover of black fog, my communication tools and space jade slips seem to be unusable!"

"Who did it and what was the purpose?!"

Panicked and noisy sounds came one after another in this blocked barrier.

At this time, four huge snake-like black shadows, each hundreds of feet long, suddenly expanded and appeared in the east, west, south, and north of the barrier. Four strong and strange auras with enough strength to be a seven-star Dou Zun firmly sealed off the world within the barrier.

Afterwards, a hoarse and sinister voice, along with the chilling aura of the Nine Netherworld Python, echoed in the barrier.

"The Nine Netherworld Python Clan is doing business. All outsiders must retreat to the edge of the barrier and stay where they are. Do not make any unusual movements. Otherwise... you will be killed without mercy."

As soon as he finished speaking, dozens of Dou Zun and Dou Zong-level followers started from the center of the mountain and cleared the area quickly and accurately.

Anyone who makes any unusual move will be eliminated without any explanation.

Soon, this blocked world was stained with blood and wailing. In less than half an hour, many monsters were driven to the edge of the barrier, and were enveloped and suppressed by the aura of the huge snake shadows lurking in all directions.

The monsters looked towards the center, only to see that the area within a ten-mile radius was completely covered by thick black fog, and they could not see what was happening in the center. On the top of the mountain, Qing Lin dispersed the green light in his eyes and nodded slightly to Lin Yuan: "Master, it's done!"

"Thank you for your hard work!" Lin Yuan opened his eyes and a satisfied smile appeared on his face. He then withdrew his soul perception and ended the last round of investigation.

Then, he looked at the purple figure beside him: "Zi Yan, what's the situation?"

"Soon!" Zi Yan replied simply, her delicate purple eyes flashing with a strange purple light as she stared at the space seal in the center of the mountain.

At a certain moment, a tiny ripple suddenly appeared at the seal of space, and an extremely small crack appeared.

"Right now...Split the sky!"

Zi Yan and Lin Yuan looked at each other, and they quickly formed seals with their hands at the same time, and then suddenly swung out with their palms.

Two rays of purple light shot out from the palms of the two men and landed on the tiny space crack. The space crack that should have disappeared not only did not disappear, but instead slowly expanded and turned into a space vortex about ten feet in size, surrounded by purple light.

"Crash-"

The space vortex twisted violently, making a sound like flowing water.

As the sound spread, the fluctuations in space became more and more violent, and the space vortex became hazy, making it impossible to see the specific situation inside.

Seeing the passage opened up, Lin Yuan did not hesitate at all. He suddenly changed his hand seals and shot several purple lights at the three women, using the sealing technique that he had perfected for a long time on them.

"Heavenly Fire Tribulation: Ancient Dragon Suppressing Spiritual Seal."

Without any doubt about Lin Yuan, the three women allowed the purple light to enter their bodies and turned into a dragon-shaped seal inside their bodies. The aura of the three people dropped rapidly, and in just a few minutes, they had dropped to the peak level of Dou Zong.

Lin Yuan himself also dropped to the level of Dou Zong.

Since the space seal will not counterattack those below the Dou Zun level, wouldn't it be enough to lower the cultivation level to below the Dou Zun level?

After several days of experimentation and consuming some of Qing Lin's followers, Lin Yuan finally found out the secret - the Ancient Dragon's Spirit Seal that seals the power, combined with subtle adjustments to the secret method of concealing breath, can "trick" the restriction to a certain extent.

At the side, Zi Yan's somewhat anxious voice suddenly sounded: "Lin Yuan, hurry up and follow me, this passage won't last much longer!"

Before she finished her words, a rich purple light surged out of her body, turning into a stream of purple light and rushing directly into the crumbling space passage.

This time, she entered the passage very smoothly without encountering any strong counterattack.

"Let's go!" Lin Yuan stretched out his hands and held Qing Lin and Xiao Yixiang's waists. A rich purple light instantly emerged from his body, wrapping the three of them. Then he turned into a stream of purple light and followed Zi Yan into the space passage.

After Lin Yuan was able to enter, the purple light on the passage dissipated and the space passage disappeared as well.

Lin Yuan and the others' eyes flashed, and after passing through a hazy white mist, they appeared in another extremely vast sea of ​​bones.

Not far away, a huge outline as majestic as a mountain came into the eyes of several people. From afar, it looked like an ancient ferocious beast crawling in a sea of ​​bones, which made people tremble in their hearts.

The four of them approached quickly, and the white mist floating in the sea of ​​bones gradually became thinner, and the huge monster finally came into their sight.

It was a large hall, nearly a thousand feet huge, almost as huge as a small mountain peak.

The huge palace was completely red, and from a distance it looked like a flame rising from it. It was particularly dazzling in this sea of ​​white bones.

Several people stopped a hundred meters in front of the huge palace, looking at the huge structure that seemed to be holding up the sky, and a sense of insignificance arose spontaneously.

"The work of the ancient fighting saint is indeed amazing!"

Looking at the huge palace in front of him, Lin Yuan sighed, then turned around and unlocked the Ancient Dragon Spirit Seal for himself and the three women in turn, regaining his strength.

Myself, Little Medical Fairy, Zi Yan, and finally Qing Lin...

Lin Yuan placed his hand on Qing Lin's shoulder and removed the seal for her while asking, "Qing'er, is your contact with the relatives outside normal? What's the situation outside?"

After carefully sensing for a moment, Qing Lin gave a reassuring answer: "Don't worry, sir. I have no problem controlling my followers."

"As for the situation outside the ruins, most of the monsters within the barrier are very obedient, and those that have made unusual movements have been dealt with by my followers. Outside the barrier, I left my followers outside to deal with all those who wanted to approach the barrier."

"If nothing unexpected happens, blocking the information from the ruins for a day... shouldn't be a problem."

"That's great!" Lin Yuan heard this, his face showing a hint of satisfaction, and he smiled and said to the girls, "In that case, let's not delay any longer and go into the ruins..."

After saying that, he took off into the air and flew to the red stone door in front of the hall.

As if some mechanism was triggered, the earth suddenly began to tremble slightly.

"Rumble--"

The huge palace, which had been silent until now, suddenly made a loud noise. A red stone door that seemed as heavy as ten thousand pounds suddenly rose up slowly, revealing a dark passage behind it.

Lin Yuan reached out his hand, grabbed Zi Yan who wanted to rush into the ruins, and protected her behind him. He then took a step forward and said in a deep voice: "I will lead the way, and you follow behind me. Little Medical Fairy, I'll leave the back to you..."

As soon as he had a thought, a dry blue icy flame swept out from his body, and with a roll, it turned into a long shuttle of fire, which wrapped himself, Xiao Yixian and the other two girls.

With a wave of his sleeves, the flames carried everyone out and dived into the dark passage.

Soon after rushing into the passage, something unexpected happened in the dark passage: the hard floor suddenly cracked, and red magma gushed out from it. At the same time, gorgeous blue flames suddenly spurted out from the walls of the passage.

The dark passage, which was originally somewhat cool, turned into a scene of scorching purgatory in just a few blinks of an eye.

As they went deeper, the temperature around them quickly increased by dozens of times.

The surrounding hard red rocks were burned red, and the hot magma below continued to gush out like a spring.

The hot gravel contained in the magma now possesses a very strong killing power - even an ordinary Dou Zong will have his Dou Qi pierced through if he is not careful, and his intestines and stomach will be ruptured in an instant.

However, for Lin Yuan and his group, this level of attack was of no use at all...
