Led by Wang Zheng and Qin Yao, the group of geniuses from blessed lands, who had finally reunited, began their journey toward the floating island.
After such a long journey, these pampered young masters and ladies were already exhausted. They thought things would get better once they reached the vicinity of the floating island and the spiritual energy recovered, but they didn't expect that there was a restriction on flying spells on this stone pillar.
This is absolutely terrible!
The long stone pillars made the group of young people complain bitterly, which was in stark contrast to the young master Wang, who was full of energy and completely unaffected.
At this moment, Wang Zheng and Linghu Yiyun walked in front, and the senior brother also started chatting with Wang Zheng.
Despite Wang Zheng's previous explanation, Linghu Yiyun was still somewhat worried because the beast soul had come from such a strange place.
"By the way, Junior Brother Wang Zheng, you arrived before us and have experience exploring ancient ruins. Is there anything we should be careful about on this floating island?"
Wang Zheng smiled and shook his head. Having already known the whole story, he naturally felt no pressure.
"Aside from that barrier, there are no other dangers, and the great demons within have probably long since vanished in the erosion of time."
However, these are never the most dangerous parts of the ruins. The most important thing is that this time there are only a few of us brothers in the ruins. As long as no superhumans or demon kings from outside the country enter, there will definitely be no danger.
Even if we're really that unlucky, there are still a few True Immortals and Grandmasters outside. If others can get in, they definitely can too. Senior Brother, don't worry too much. The right thing to do is think about how to bring those ancient books back..."
Upon hearing Wang Zheng's remarks, Han Xiaozi, who was holding on by her inner beliefs and following closely behind the two, even though her legs were already trembling, also joined in the conversation while panting heavily.
“Junior Brother Wang Zheng is right! Our sect has records that those…beast souls can no longer be considered living beings, and they have no consciousness.”
I suspect that the void passage may have been opened long ago, and the spiritual energy here in the ancestral land has drawn out the beast souls that entered the passage from outside.
Perhaps it hadn't sensed the presence of any living being for a long time, and that's why it instinctively attacked us upon suddenly encountering us. Senior Brother, don't worry too much about it..."
With his junior brother, who was practically an expert on exotic beasts, speaking up, Linghu Yiyun's expression improved considerably. However, the question Wang Zheng continued to ask left him somewhat helpless.
Wang Zheng first expressed his appreciation for Han Xiaozi's self-proclaimed conjecture, and then continued to ask:
"While collecting those ancient books is of paramount importance, there's still one problem. I wonder if any of you fellow disciples are from the Duntian Sect? I have a not-so-good theory to share..."
Linghu Yiyun quickly shook his head and asked:
"The Duntian Sect has high requirements for mathematical aptitude when accepting disciples, and because their actual combat ability is also insufficient, there is a shortage of qualified disciples. This time, apart from Master Wusuan, there are no other candidates."
"If you have any speculations, please share them. We can brainstorm together..."
Upon hearing this information that he already knew, Wang Zheng deliberately feigned concern, and then slowly said:
"According to our Chinese records and my personal experience, the damage and energy surges caused by the appearance of any ancient site should not be underestimated."
But we entered so smoothly this time, and we didn't encounter anything unusual outside before, so I'm worried that this ruin was created because the divine consciousness of the ancient demon that was the guardian suddenly dissipated.
The desolate landscape we've witnessed along the way proves this point.
So while it's highly unlikely that anyone else will come to compete with us for the benefits of these ruins, figuring out how to get out is another matter entirely!
In response to Wang Zheng's explanation, Han Xiaozi suddenly asked:
"Didn't Junior Brother say before that the ruins would dissipate on their own after breaking through the barrier? Then we can just go out then, right?"
Wang Zheng slowly shook his head.
"It's not that simple. Who knows if we'll end up on Earth after these ruins disappear? If we get lost in the spatial turbulence, we'll be completely helpless."
"Besides, last time I escaped through a temporary void passage after the ruins collapsed, thanks to my teleportation and location abilities. I wouldn't have gambled if I hadn't been forced to..."
Look at what he's saying! Young Master Wang doesn't want to gamble with his life, and the proud son of the celestial realm is even less willing to gamble!
However, we are all in the same boat now. Let alone the fact that there are no juniors from the Duntian Sect here, even if there were, they would only count if they could cast the formation.
Moreover, if there really were such rare geniuses, they would probably have gone to Gushan Town for an internship with Master Wusuan long ago, and wouldn't have had time to fool around with them!
Under Wang Zheng's guidance, negative emotions spread instantly, and even Han Xiaozi felt that the inheritance he was about to obtain was ominous.
Just as everyone was feeling gloomy, Qin Yao, the junior sister who was climbing the mountain while sitting on Bai Cang's back, suddenly burst out laughing.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were on her, the junior sister wasn't shy at all, and said with a grin:
"Fellow senior brothers, it's one thing if Senior Brother Wang Zheng doesn't understand, but have you all forgotten that we still have the secret mark of Uncle Xiaoyao on our bodies?"
It's likely that our martial uncles already knew about us from the moment we entered these ruins. Since they couldn't sense our presence, they're probably searching for us everywhere right now.
Moreover, we haven't concealed the tracks we left while chasing this beast, so I believe they'll come to pick us up soon. Don't worry..."
Upon hearing this, Linghu Yiyun slapped his forehead, feeling relieved.
"Junior Sister Yao Yao is truly intelligent. Senior Brother had actually forgotten about this incident. Unexpectedly, Uncle Xiao Yao's unintentional act has become the key to breaking our current predicament."
Haha, it seems we're safe now. We can finally take a real risk and try to collect as many valuable items as possible beforehand!
Although Young Master Wang brought up this topic on purpose to deceive people and prevent the mirage beast's departure from being exposed, his worries were genuine.
Now that this worry has been resolved, Young Master Wang is overjoyed, at least he no longer has to worry about not being able to get out.
Moreover, upon learning that powerful reinforcements were on their way, these individuals immediately changed their demeanor.
However, Young Master Wang also hoped that these big shots could arrive as soon as possible, since he couldn't guarantee when the ruins, which had lost their chaotic energy and mirage beasts, would be unable to sustain themselves.
They won't even need to break the restrictions; the ruins will collapse on their own...
'Since that's the case, let's appease them for now. We'll advise everyone to put aside the restrictions on the main hall for the time being. After all, what I said wasn't a lie; the disappearance of the main hall's barrier would indeed cause the ruins to collapse!'
