Chapter 256 Entering the Ancient Ruins

Luo Li looked at Barrett silently. Barrett coughed lightly and looked up at the sky.

If he said that he had forgotten about these two people, would she believe him?

Luo Li turned around and walked over to pull the two of them up. "Brother Wanbai, Azhou, how are you? Are you all okay?"

"No, no." The two shook their heads. The spiritual master's body was strong and the gravel could not hurt them. It was just that his clothes were a little dirty.

After Song Wanbai stood up, he used his spiritual power to cleanse his body, then turned around and looked around, saying helplessly, "Are we really being dragged into the ancient ruins?"

Luo Li sighed and spread her hands, "That's right."

Mo Yizhou was shocked. "We're so unlucky! How could we be pulled into the ancient ruins that opened in advance even though we're so far away from the center of the red fog?"

Lord Bai Sheng walked over and said gently, "Since we're here, we should make the best of it. Since we got in before others, why don't we look for Young Master Luo's friend first? I remember that the people from Tianyu Palace seem to be looking for her as well. If we find her first, it will save us a lot of trouble."

Luo Li's eyes flickered, and she turned to look at Lord Bai Sheng, and said directly,

"I wonder what the purpose of Lord Bai Sheng's trip is? Cang Yanhai crossed the Beiming Canghai and almost half of the continental plate to come here. He can't really be here for sightseeing, right?"

Song Wanbai and Mo Yizhou took a deep breath beside her and silently gave Luo Li a thumbs up, saying that she was indeed A'li.

Lord Bai Shengwang smiled and did not feel offended. Since it was a cooperative relationship, honesty was naturally the most important thing. No one wanted to be in the ancient ruins and have to keep an eye on their partners to see if they would do anything else that would be detrimental to the team.

He said calmly, "Of course, I am following the orders of Lord Yan. I have something important to do. As for what it is, it is the secret of my Cang Yanhai. It is really inconvenient to tell Young Master Luo."

Luo Li touched his chin and said calmly, "I'm not interested in the secrets of Cang Yanhai. The purpose of our trip is just to find my friend. It seems that what you mean does not conflict with our purpose, that's enough."

Lord Bai Sheng curled his lips and smiled. It was easy to deal with smart people.

He stood up and brushed his sleeves. "Young Master Luo, please rest assured. Since this is a partnership, I will naturally not do anything that is detrimental to our cooperation. I will first help you find your friend, and then it won't be too late to do my thing."

Luo Li looked around and said, "In that case, let's find a way first. If we come across something that Lord White Saint needs along the way, we will certainly not stand idly by."

Lord Bai nodded, his expression gentle, "Okay."

He thought for a moment and said in a deep voice, "Young Master Luo, could you please give me the sound transmission stone that you and your friend have? I'll try to contact her. If I can find out her approximate location, we can save a lot of time."

Luo Li had just tried to contact Lan Xiaoxiao but couldn't. After hearing what Lord Bai Sheng said, she took out the sound transmission stone and handed it over, "Excuse me Lord."

Lord Bai Shengwang took the sound transmission stone, smiled and said nothing more, and radiated the power of light from his body, which was injected into the sound transmission stone.

Taking advantage of this time, Luo Li walked to the wall and observed the four passages in the palace.

This palace is empty except for some low-grade elixirs and spiritual weapons.

Luo Li sensed that there was no danger in the entire palace. They were indeed on the outskirts of the ruins.

If what Lord Bai Sheng just said is true, the entrance to the ancient ruins should be in the south, and they should head north to get deeper into the ancient ruins.

However, the structure of ancient ruins is different from that of ordinary ruins. It is very likely that the direction they think is correct is getting farther and farther away from the center of the ruins.

Just as Luo Li was thinking, the voice of Lord Bai Sheng came, "Young Master Luo."

Luo Li responded, turned around and walked over. Seeing the sound transmission stone in his hand glowing white, she was delighted, "Xiaoxiao?"

Song Wanbai and Mo Yizhou also came over immediately, "Xiaoxiao?! Can you hear me?"

Lan Xiaoxiao coughed twice over there, her voice muffled, "I can hear you."

Hearing that her voice was still quite energetic, Luo Li and the other two breathed a sigh of relief.

Luo Li asked calmly, "Xiaoxiao, time is running out, I'll be brief."

"We've already entered the ancient ruins, but the situation inside is complex. Please observe your surroundings and tell me if you've encountered any landmarks in the past few days. Only then can I find you as quickly as possible."

Lan Xiaoxiao has calmed down in the past few days. After getting used to the darkness, life here is not so difficult anymore.

Moreover, her luck was not too bad. She had been here for such a long time and had only encountered the soul of a high-star divine beast. She had two contracted beasts at the divine beast level, but she had not suffered any harm.

Listening to Luo Li's quiet and gentle voice, she hummed softly and said calmly,

"I've been heading north these past few days, roughly crossing two palaces. The best-priced beast soul I've encountered is at the seven-star divine beast level, and the elixirs and spiritual weapons are all of the imperial grade. However, I haven't encountered any ruins guardians."

Luo Li lowered her eyes and listened to Lan Xiaoxiao's words. She could see the emperor-level spiritual weapon...

She breathed a sigh of relief. It was only in the middle area of ​​the ancient ruins, or even just entering the middle area.

That makes it easy.

"As for where I am now..."

Because she was alone, she did not dare to light the longevity candle in the palace.

Lan Xiaoxiao let the person next to her lean against the wall, stood up, ignited a cluster of spiritual fire on her fingertips, walked to the end of the passage, and observed the palace in the dim light.

She looked around and said, "Well... I'm next to a palace now. As for the iconic things."

Lan Xiaoxiao walked down the stairs and saw a sculpture on the side. Her eyes lit up. Yes, it was a sculpture!

She immediately spoke into the sound stone, "Every palace I've come across along the way has a sculpture of a man!"

Luo Li was startled. "Sculpture?"

Lan Xiaoxiao nodded while holding the sound transmission stone, "That's right!"

Luo Li pursed her lips, feeling strange. When she was observing the palace just now, apart from some sacred-looking sculptures of magical beasts, she didn't see any sculptures of men.

She pressed, "What kind of sculpture?"

Lan Xiaoxiao walked to the foot of the tall sculpture, raised the spiritual fire on her fingertips, looked up at the sculpture and said, "It's a statue of a man, very tall and large, holding a scepter in his raised hand, wearing a long robe and a hood."

She thought for a moment and added, "By the way, his eyes are closed."

Luo Li listened to Lan Xiaoxiao's words and wrote them down one by one. She comforted him, "Okay, I'll remember it. You..."

Before she could finish her sentence, the voice stone suddenly disconnected again.

After the sound stone suddenly disconnected, in order to prevent A'li from not being able to find her, Lan Xiaoxiao decided not to continue running. She held the sound stone tightly in her hand, turned around and walked back to the passage she had just been in.

She didn't notice that the moment she turned around, the eyes of the lifeless sculpture flashed with white light and slowly opened their tightly closed eyes.

A compassionate expression.
