Chapter 363 The Truth About the Ruins

Looking at the small fire outside freely and easily flying among tens of thousands of sand shadows, Luo Diandian's heart relaxed a little.

Then she was able to concentrate on conquering the formation in front of her, and the little puppets around her were assisting her in an orderly manner.

After an unknown amount of time, it seemed as if the dark elements in the formation were becoming increasingly scarce, and there were even signs that they were being absorbed from the outside in.

At this moment, the sand shadows in the ruins suddenly rose up, and all the sand began to gather into a huge sand giant, revealing only a pair of dark pupils.

The speed was so fast that Xiaohuo couldn't react for a while. Just as he finished clearing the ones on this side, the ones on the other side gathered again and moved forward.

As soon as it left, the sand on the ground quickly gathered again.

So as the sand shadows continued to gather faster and faster, although the small fire also burst out at a faster speed, the surrounding sand shadows were still getting closer and closer to the center.

Suddenly, Luo Diandian focused his eyes and finally found the key point of the formation. He stopped to sketch and add something on it.

Just around the barrier, a huge sand shadow giant raised his sledgehammer and smashed it hard at the barrier in front of him. It was too late for Xiaohuo to come from another direction.

At the critical moment, Luo Diandian directly placed the last stroke in the formation.

In an instant, the formation under the ground seemed to be activated, and a dark light emerged.

At this moment, the surrounding sand shadows seemed to have their backbones pulled out, and the sand under their feet suddenly loosened. The huge figure lost its support and knelt on the ground.

A thick dark aura slowly emerged from their bodies, converging from all directions towards the formation in the center.

"Okay, Xiaohuo, take a break!"

The bad woman's voice in her mind was relieved. Xiaohuo was so tired that he shrank and came in to lie beside Luo Diandian.

Seeing it panting, Luo Diandian touched its head with pity.

"Thank you for your hard work, Xiaohuo."

"Hmm..."

Xiaohuo shook his head to indicate that it was okay, it just needed to rest for a while, then raised its head and enjoyed Luo Diandian's touch.

After everything returned to silence, only the spread of sand remained in the endless ruins.

The dark elemental mist that had condensed around was also absorbed by the formation, and all the scenes in the ruins were exposed.

There are some white bones scattered in the yellow sand, which look like the skeletons of monks, and some remnants of buildings. These survived because the spiritual energy above can withstand the erosion of wind and sand.

The best preserved is the altar in the center.

As for the things underground, Luo Diandian planned to wait until all the dark elements were collected before opening the formation and taking them out.

Then she stood up and began to explore the ruins in front of her, but after walking around, she found nothing.

Finally she came to the bones. It seemed that the answers to the questions about the ruins could only be obtained from these remains.

Luo Diandian searched in her mind for a formation that might work.

Thinking about this, he actually came up with an idea for a formation that could deal with this situation, and began to outline it on the bones.

Xiaohuo lay on her head and looked at her curiously.

Not long after, a spirit-inquiring array enveloped the bones and began to read the lingering spiritual energy within them.

Soon, many incomplete and blurry scenes appeared above, and Luo looked at them frame by frame.

A man dressed in black clothes, surrounded by more than ten monks.

Faced with this situation, a black crystal core suddenly appeared in his hand, and he used both hands to form a formation on the crystal core.

Under his operation, the thick dark gas on the crystal core dispersed and transformed into black humanoid spirits blocking his way.

The next frame shows the black spirit fighting with the monk in front of it.

The last scene was that all the monks fell to the ground, and the person holding the crystal core was also seriously injured.

He dragged his broken body, temporarily used the formation to construct an altar, buried the crystal core in his hand underground, set up the gate to the secret realm, and quickly escaped.

The clip ends here, and the spiritual inquiry ends.

Although the fragments were missing and blurry, Luo Diandian roughly figured out that the ruins in front of him were left for the black crystal core.

It seems that the man could not bear being hunted like this any longer, so he chose to seal up the aura of the crystal core first, probably thinking of taking it back later.

But so many years have passed, and the key still found its way out. It goes without saying that the person is in great danger.

After such a long time, this secret realm has gradually developed into the ruins-like appearance before us.

Luo Diandian had been curious before, why this place looked like both a relic and a secret place. If it were a relic, there shouldn't be a special key.

So now the truth is revealed.

However, Luo Diandian was quite interested in the formation in the man's hand in the previous phantom. It could actually communicate with the crystal core and summon so many dark spirits to fight.

And it looks like he is quite powerful.

I think the sand shadows around were affected by the remaining formations, so they were slowly generated, and they were not simple spirits formed by dark elements.

So, when all the dark elements in this world were absorbed, Luo Diandian quickly returned to the altar.

Cooperating with the little puppet again, he opened the formation below.

The thing in front of them, which released a strong aura of dark elements, appeared in front of the man and the beast.

Just put on the formation prepared in advance to prevent the dark elements from escaping.

Luo Diandian began to observe the crystal core-shaped object in front of her. When she probed into it with her spiritual energy, she discovered that it not only contained powerful dark elements, but this was not her primary concern.

As she continued searching, her eyes lit up slightly, and she was pleasantly surprised to find some remaining formations set up by the man in the previous video.

Her guess was correct. It seemed that the previous sand shadow was affected by the leaked power of the formation.

For Luo Diandian, who is good at replenishing formations, the formation fragments in front of him are like a new toy.

"Xiao Huo, let's stay here for a while until I finish this formation."

As soon as these words were spoken, Xiaohuo knew that Luo Diandian was going to study the formation again, so he yawned and nodded.

…

After an unknown amount of time, Xiaohuo felt something cold and eerie poking his face in his sleep.

It stretched out its claws and scratched itself, then turned over and continued to sleep carefree.

But the thing seemed to be stunned, looked at the butt in front of it, and then reached out and poked it.

Xiaohuo paused, as if he sensed something was wrong, and suddenly opened his eyes the next second.

Turning around, he saw dozens of pairs of cold eyes slowly staring at it.

Some were standing, some were squatting, some were hugging their chests, some were lying sideways, some were putting their hands behind their backs... those dark humanoid spirits just stayed quietly in front of it.

Xiaohuo quickly jumped up and after transforming, he was about to bite.

"Stop, stop, stop, we're on the same side!"

Xiaohuo was slightly stunned until Luo Diandian's figure appeared behind them.
