The Legend of the Great Saint: Start from the Sign-in at Mount Tai

Chapter 522 Sign-in at the Ruins City
After Lu Zhou and Bai Jie Dao Ren were taken away by Qing Huang Dao Ren.

The Nebula Tower was bustling again. Many people in the tower had no idea that a Great Sage was actually secretly discussing opening the Imperial Tomb here.

Many people are eagerly awaiting the final decision made by the Great Sages, hoping to get the information as soon as possible and see if they can also get a share of the spoils.

There were many people in the building trying to get close to Qing Shi and Ye Fan, especially to the fairy-like Qing Shi.

They were spouting all sorts of nice things.

The meaning is self-evident.

Naturally, it's because Lu Zhou is already on a completely different level from the other young powerful figures.

Now, the Overlord Immortal has arrived in the Ruins City, and the protectors have invited him to discuss the important matter of opening the Imperial Tomb.

These small details all reveal to everyone that Ba Xian has long since become one of the players on the ancient path, and has already moved on to playing high-level games, instead of following the crowd in low-level games like them.

To be honest, this is actually quite stimulating for Di Tian and the Great Demon God, these young supreme beings of the same generation as Lu Zhou.

But since their strength didn't allow it, they could only turn the stimulus into motivation.

In the following days, whether it was Ye Fan, Qing Shi, or Lu Zhou's followers...

Basically, no matter where they went in the ruins, there were people trying to get close to them.

Those people all wanted to see if they could get any details of the Great Sage's secret discussions from Qing Shi and the others.

They all believed that Ba Xian would definitely not hide these things from those around him.

And this is indeed the case.

Shortly after the secret meeting ended, Lu Zhou told Qing Shi, Ye Fan, and the others everything that had happened.

Other Great Sages who attended the meeting did the same as Lu Zhou.

Although it was called a secret meeting, they never intended to hide anything from the beginning. They all told their close friends, disciples, and so on about the entire meeting shortly after it ended.

This is actually one of the reasons why, in the original work, the cultivators gathered in the ruins city all rushed to the scene as soon as the Great Sages launched their attack on the Emperor's Tomb.

"Sign in!"

The Nebula Tower is adorned with starlight that falls like a curtain of water, creating a dazzling and dreamlike spectacle.

Lu Zhou stood atop the Nebula Tower and silently signed in. Soon, the system's voice rang out in his mind.

[Ding! Host has checked in to the Ruins City and has obtained a peak-stage combat power experience card for the Supreme Quasi-Emperor Xing Yunzi, which has been stored in the Host's Chaos Pearl!]

Xingyunzi, Xingyunlou!
Lu Zhou found out that the rumors were true.

The one who left behind this Nebula Tower was Xingyunzi.

He was a supreme quasi-emperor who almost attained enlightenment. He had once fought against Wushi 110,000 to 120,000 years ago, but was ultimately defeated by Wushi.

Wu Shi's strength made this supreme quasi-emperor question his own existence, and in the end, he died alone in this Nebula Tower.

Lu Zhou was very satisfied to have gained another Quasi-Emperor combat power experience card, which can be considered a good start to his trip to the Star Ruins.

A few days later, the city was in an uproar again.

Because this day was the day when all the great sages agreed to march on the Emperor's mausoleum.

Before this day, the entire ancient road was shaken. Many powerful beings, and even the guides from various cities, hurriedly set off to arrive at the Ruins City before the Great Sage's departure.

The imminent discovery of a great emperor's tomb is enough to stir the hearts of all living beings who hear of it.

There were figures everywhere.

There were large armies, one after another.

They traversed the stars, their horses galloping across the sky, banners fluttering, raising their battle flags high, converging from various places in the ruined city or the starry sky to the Yellow Springs that seemed to have fallen from the heavens.

This Yellow Springs seemed to flow from nothingness, steaming with an incomparably intense deathly aura.

Even someone as powerful as the Great Sage wouldn't want to get even a drop of it on him.

Only those guys from the underworld felt like they were coming home after getting close to the Yellow Springs River.

Some time ago, a great sage made a deduction that the entrance to the imperial tomb was in this void where the Yellow Springs fall.

By following the downward flow of the Yellow Springs and breaking through that void, one can find the entrance to the imperial mausoleum and enter the true imperial mausoleum.

At this moment, both sides of the Yellow Springs were already packed with people. All the powerful figures who had come here were waiting for the Great Sage to descend and for him to personally take action and blast open the entrance to the Imperial Tomb.

Soon, beings from the underworld appeared.

They were like a ghostly army passing through, their entire bodies covered in black armor, exuding a repulsive and intense aura of death.

There is an ancient bronze coffin, covered in rust, which is guarded at the very center by the forces of the underworld.

In recent days, most of the cultivators in the Star Ruins have seen this group of Netherworld soldiers swaggering around the Star Ruins and even the Ruins City, investigating the situation of the Imperial Tomb.

Not long after the powerful figures from the underworld appeared, a chief god from the divine organization also arrived, once again sparking whispers among the crowd.

Many cultivators on the ancient path were wary of, and even deeply resentful of, the Divine Organization.

There's no other reason; it's just that the God Organization gives off the impression of being a group of terrifying interstellar pirates.

Throughout history, the Divine Organization has roamed the Ancient Road, frequently engaging in robbery and plunder, ambushing cultivators on the Ancient Road, and extracting various secret techniques from them to strengthen themselves.

Decades ago, the God Organization suffered significant losses due to its excessive actions, which led to a major purge launched by the Ancient Road Protectors.

Since then, the God Organization has become much more restrained.

Some people didn't expect that the Divine Organization would openly appear before the imperial tombs this time.

Moreover, the one who came here was an extremely powerful chief god of the divine organization.

His appearance made many people present, including some of the protectors of the ancient human path, look even more solemn.

What surprised many of the cultivators present was that the main god had set his sights on the people of the underworld as soon as he descended upon this place.

The chief god of the divine organization, urging the cauldron in his hand, smashed it towards the cultivators of the underworld, engaging in a world-shaking collision with the Great Sage lying in the bronze coffin of the underworld.

Few people know that the divine organization and the underworld have been mortal enemies since ancient times.

This involves the earth-shattering event at the end of the mythological era.

That is, the Heavenly Court built by the Emperor collapsed overnight!

The divine organization is terrifyingly ancient, dating back to the end of the mythological era, and was founded by the survivors of the Heavenly Court.

The sudden collapse of the Heavenly Court established by the Emperor appears to be related to the Underworld.

Therefore, since ancient times, the divine organization and the underworld, these two ancient and mysterious forces, have always been mortal enemies.

The clash between the Supreme God and the Great Sage of the Underworld did not continue; they only exchanged one blow before both withdrew.

It's hard to say who's stronger or weaker, or who wins or loses.

Perhaps it was because they all understood that this was not a good time for them to fight; the imperial tomb was the most important thing, and everything else had to be put aside for the time being.

Following this, one after another, powerful beings and terrifying forces arrived at this place. These included holy spirits, high-ranking monks from the Amitabha Ancient Starfield, and ancient races like the Mighty Bull Demon Clan!
The leader of the Mighty Bull Demon Clan also clashed with the Holy Spirit after arriving at this place.

The two sides have clashed before.

The reason is that Shi Ling killed members of the Mighty Bull Demon Clan several months ago.

Their confrontation, much like the clash between the Supreme God and the Great Sage of the Underworld, did not continue.

The fighting stopped after just one strike!

Some of the protectors stepped forward to persuade them, urging them to prioritize the imperial tombs, as this was the most important matter at hand.

When Lu Zhou arrived at this place with Qing Shi, Ye Fan, and others, it caused quite a stir and discussion.

A barrage of gazes, each brimming with a variety of emotions, were cast upon them the moment they appeared.

They all keenly sensed that some of the gazes directed at them were filled with intense killing intent.

Standing atop the Holy Spirit's dragon head, Lu Zhou raised his eyes and casually glanced in the direction where the Holy Spirit Clan was located.

"Hahaha"

"Overlord Immortal, it seems someone is quite unhappy with you!"

"Perfect timing! I, Old Bull, also have a grudge against the Holy Spirit!"

"Why don't we clear them out together before opening the imperial tomb?"

The Bull Demon King's voice was deafening, causing the stars to rumble.

This guy is definitely an unruly fellow. Judging from his posture, he really wants to drag Lu Zhou along and take care of all the Holy Spirits present first.

Lu Zhou didn't care about this.

Just as he and the Holy Spirit were about to say something, Qi Tian suddenly spoke first, expressionless.

"Gentlemen, I think we should not let personal grudges ruin the important matter of opening the imperial tomb!"

"If you truly have any grudges, you can settle them after this matter is over!"

With the Great Sage echoing Qi Tian's sentiments, no one wanted to cause any accidents when the time came.

Lu Zhou glanced at Qi Tian, ​​who remained expressionless, neither avoiding nor backing down from Lu Zhou's gaze.

Some things seem to be ordained by fate, and Qi Tian still finds himself on the opposite side of the protagonist.

This time, however, Qi Tian's biggest desire was to kill Lu Zhou.

More than twenty years ago, during the tenth level, the old madman who was with Lu Zhou had fought with Qi Tian for the 'Holy Spirit Elixir', and at that time, the old madman even punched Qi Tian away.

During the great calamities that followed along the ancient road, Qi Tian also disguised himself and stealthily attempted to seize the immortal liquid.

Several times, it seemed that the immortal liquid was about to fall into his hands, but in the end, it was snatched away by Lu Zhou or the old madman.

On one occasion, during a chaotic fight, Lu Zhou slapped Qi Tian across the face and then kicked him, seriously injuring him.

All of this made Qi Tian hate Lu Zhou intensely.

He had long harbored murderous intent towards Lu Zhou, but due to his own lack of strength, he had kept his murderous intent towards Lu Zhou well hidden all these years.

Little did he know that Lu Zhou had long since sensed his murderous intent towards him and had included Qi Tian on his kill list.

If Qi Tian hadn't been so slippery all along, preventing Lu Zhou from finding another opportunity to run into him, he would have been killed by Lu Zhou long ago.

If you think about it carefully, today is the first time Lu Zhou has met Qi Tian since he decided to kill him.

At this moment, Lu Zhou did not intend to cause any more trouble. He would wait until the entrance to the imperial mausoleum was opened before making any further decisions.

Perhaps it was because his mastery of the Former Word Secret Technique was becoming increasingly profound, but Lu Zhou had a feeling that this trip to the Imperial Mausoleum would bring some unexpected situations.

"boom"

Seeing that everyone who was supposed to appear had appeared, the Great Sages present all took action.

The first to make a move were several human protectors. They joined forces and each unleashed a strike towards the void where the Yellow Springs were descending.

Following them were the chief god from the divine organization, the Great Sage from the underworld, the Holy Spirit, and the Bull Demon King, among others.
They unleashed their powerful weapons, or quasi-emperor weapons, and bombarded that void.

Lu Zhou was no exception. He also casually took out a quasi-emperor weapon, a blood-red battle spear, which he had obtained by signing in at the trial grounds of the fifty-fifth level.

Lu Zhou held the gun and thrust it towards that void.

The barrier of that void was already loose and not very strong; otherwise, the waters of the Yellow Springs would not have flowed out of the imperial tomb.

Under such circumstances, how could the barrier there withstand the powerful attacks of one Great Sage after another?
Therefore, the already loose barrier quickly cracked under the bombardment of the Great Saints.

An ever-surging torrent of Yellow Spring water gushed forth from the barrier.

The void there was completely shattered, and amidst the flashing and dancing of various divine lights, a pair of enormous stone gates, tens of thousands of feet high, appeared in the void.

The stone gate is quite ancient, and it is decorated with various ancient beasts, strange insects and other patterns.

It was not closed, but rather wide open, as if welcoming visitors to the tomb.

Through the open doorway, those outside could vaguely see a corner inside, which seemed to be a celestial realm, with the roars of dragons and the cries of phoenixes emanating from within.

This situation startled many people present, who then showed surprise and delight.

They all knew that it must be the stone gate leading to the imperial tomb.

They hadn't expected everything to go so smoothly, without any danger whatsoever; it was unbelievably successful.

But at this moment, with the imperial mausoleum gate wide open, people didn't have time to worry about anything else.

The emperor's mausoleum was simply too tempting; it was hard to imagine what kind of amazing treasures awaited them to discover within.

At this moment, apart from a few people who are usually quite cautious, no one wanted to fall behind and everyone wanted to be the first to rush into the imperial tomb to seize the initiative.

The first to rush toward the imperial tomb, attempting to cross the pair of stone gates, were still the Holy Spirit Stone Men mentioned in the original work.

He was only a little over a meter tall and didn't look very big, but he was very brave.

He steered his chariot straight toward the pair of open stone gates.

Soon after, he lost face because of his greed.

His chariot was overturned by the pattern emerging from the stone gate, and the stone dragon and the stone tiger that pulled the chariot were both severely injured.

Even he himself was injured, and Holy Spirit blood flowed from his mouth.

This is the mausoleum of the Demon Emperor; who dares to be disrespectful? Who dares to act recklessly here?

Isn't this just courting death?

With the Holy Spirit Stone Man as a living example, none of the remaining monks dared to act recklessly.

Ultimately, nothing unexpected happened. When people attempted to pay their respects at the imperial tomb, they successfully crossed the stone gates and entered the tomb.

Next, everyone entered the imperial tomb in this way!
