I create patterns, regardless of your level of expertise.

The jump point for the Fallen Gods' Relics is at Broken Cloud Peak. Although it will be some time before it opens, the place is already packed with people.

The gathering of top-tier forces from the entire Fengjue Continent, regardless of their exact purpose, was extraordinary in its scale, naturally attracting many onlookers.

It hasn't started yet, and most people are gathered in the town at the foot of the mountain.

This place is a desolate, godforsaken place, far from any normal town. It's a ghost town most of the time, with buildings but no people. It only becomes lively when the Fallen God Ruins are opened.

Normally, it's a pure loss, but once the ruins open, the foot traffic alone can earn a lot of spirit stones. It's like not opening for ten years, but making money for ten years when it does.

As for the ownership of this city...

Aside from the Medicine Tower, what other force in the human realm would be so keen on doing something like this?

In short, with the ruins about to open, this usually deserted ghost town has suddenly become bustling with people.

The streets and alleys were packed with people, who were either excitedly discussing who would be able to enter this year or arguing heatedly about it.

If neither of them can convince the other, then they should go outside the city and have a showdown.

The one who has generated the most discussion is undoubtedly the top disciple among the current generation of the four first-class forces in Fengjue Continent.

And one of the four top leaders, the eldest sister among the current disciples of Fengqi Palace, is Chi Man.

That is, the one who met Li Hao.

At this moment, she had changed out of that high-profile bright red dress and replaced it with a close-fitting outfit that was mainly light blue with dark red cloud patterns.

Her long hair had been tied up in a high ponytail, making her look more androgynous than before, but her aura had softened considerably and was no longer as sharp as it had been.

Then there was a knock on the door, and a beautiful woman pushed the door open and walked in.

Chi Man, who had been pondering, quickly regained his composure, stood up, and said, "Greetings, Seventh Elder."

The beautiful woman simply raised her hand in a gesture of reassurance, indicating that there was no need for formalities, and then sat down beside her.

"How was the trip?"

Chi Man did not speak directly, but instead raised her hand.

Then, a surge of yin energy gathered in her palm, and a small clump of pitch-black fluid began to appear in her palm.

Chi Man said, "That beast was more troublesome than we expected, and it took us a little longer. But thankfully, we finally got our hands on the Ice Profound Fiend."

There are seventy-two types of Yin Sha in the world, and this Ice Xuan Sha is the thirty-third among them.

Although the level is a bit low, it is quite suitable for Chi Man.

With this item's assistance, she was more confident in this trial of divine fall, which is why she arrived a little late.

Upon seeing this item, the Seventh Elder smiled slightly and said, "Now that you've obtained it, that's for the best. While you still have some time, make sure you recover quickly, and don't let anything go wrong later."

Having said that, the Seventh Elder was about to get up and leave.

However, at this moment, Chi Man hesitated for a moment and called out, "Seventh Elder, please wait."

"When I passed through Fengying Port on this trip, I sensed a very mysterious aura. It was not the usual strange fire or yin energy, but something that seemed to be at a higher level."

"Furthermore, the yin and yang within this aura are perfectly harmonious. Does Seventh Elder know what that is?"

Upon hearing this, the Seventh Elder frowned and pondered for a moment before slowly shaking his head and saying, "There are countless treasures in the world, and even I dare not say that I recognize them all."

"But that old bastard Yuan Ye is here, I can go ask him for you."

"Any other characteristics?"

Upon hearing this, Chi Man couldn't help but recall the scene when he first sensed that aura.

She was rushing in this direction when she suddenly sensed something and instinctively looked in the direction of the aura, only to see a man wearing a white robe with cloud patterns.

"Speaking of which," Chi Man said cautiously, "that aura seemed to emanate from a person, and that unknown treasure may have already been refined by that person."

The Seventh Elder frowned slightly: "Already refined? Who was that person? What were they doing at the time?"

Chi Man replied, "It was just a fleeting glance at the time, so I can't be sure if it has really been refined."

"As for his identity? He looks completely unfamiliar; I have no recollection of him."

"He was probably eating at the time, right?"

The Seventh Elder was genuinely taken aback.

"Have a meal?"

After reaching the fifth stage of Core Formation, one no longer needs to eat; absorbing spiritual energy is sufficient to meet the body's needs.

Could it be that the person Chi Man was talking about hasn't even reached the fifth stage of Core Formation?

If that's the case, then things are simple.

"At this time of day, most people are just here to join in the fun."

"Keep an eye out for him after that, and let me know when you spot him. I'll go talk to him."

"It would be best if we could buy that unknown treasure."

Chi Man has a special physical constitution and her cultivation techniques are even more advanced, so these extremely yin or extremely yang treasures are of great benefit to her.

That's why they specifically go out of their way to collect strange fire and yin energy.

However, this kind of treasure always takes an extreme approach, and in terms of its value to Chi Man, it is definitely a level lower than the kind of treasure that embodies both yin and yang that she mentioned.

If I hadn't known before, that would have been fine, but now that I've encountered this situation, there's absolutely no reason for me to give up.

If we can buy it, spending more spirit stones is fine; if we can't buy it...

Then she'll have to bring up the prestige of Fengqi Palace.

"You rest first, I'll go ask Yuan Ye."

After saying this, the Seventh Elder left.

……

Yuan Ye.

The chief master of the Fengjuezhou Medicine Pagoda.

He naturally couldn't miss such a grand event.

The population in the city has now reached a threshold, and various conflicts have arisen one after another. Fortunately, the Medicine Tower is experienced in maintaining order, so no major chaos has occurred.

At this very moment, he was sitting in his office, holding a list that had just been handed to him.

This is the list of those who have been included in the ruins of the fallen gods.

That's right. They say it's free competition, where everyone relies on their own abilities, but in reality, it's pretty much decided inside the box.

Each of the four top-tier forces has two, and the Medicine Tower also occupies two.

Even that's not enough.

In recent years, the connection between the two jump points has become increasingly weak, and that ruin is getting further and further away from the human world.

The limit is that eight people can be sent over, but the five families need ten slots.

It's really a headache.

Yuan Ye's gaze slowly swept over the list, and he thought viciously, "Let them fight it out. The top eight will get in."

Anyway, the rules for external matters are the same: it's all about competition. This year, it seems like things will really be fair for once.

If you can't beat them, it's because you're not skilled enough, and you deserve it.

I was just thinking about it.

A knock came at the door, accompanied by a slightly urgent voice.

"Lord Tower, someone saw Li Hao's flying boat heading this way from the port."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Ye's thoughts were interrupted, and he abruptly stood up and went to open the door.

"Is the news accurate? Has Li Hao really come here?!"

The news that Li Hao had given away ten low-grade Heaven-rank weapons had already spread among the chief tower masters of each state.

Just yesterday, that bastard Ye Lin even used a jade talisman to contact him, his smug face was extremely despicable.

Wasn't Senior Li Hao supposed to be heading back to Donglizhou? Why is he here?

Never mind! His fortune is coming!

"Summon all the cadres currently in the city and prepare to welcome Senior Li Hao with the highest honors!"
