"It's better to be safe than sorry. I think it's better not to take risks easily." After hearing what Jiang Yuzhe said, Qu Shanling regretted his previous suggestion a little bit. He changed the subject and said that as a senior charlatan, he has always been much more cautious than ordinary people.
"Master Qu's concerns are not without reason. We should be cautious," Tang Bufan said. Except when he was unleashing his innate magical powers and turning into a madman, he was even more calm and cautious than Qu Shanling.
"But it would be such a shame to give up just like that. Seeing how those people just tried everything, even the legendary Primordial Contract, the treasures in these ancient ruins must be extraordinary, perhaps even ancient artifacts. Besides the Frost Sky Sword, Han Yan doesn't have any more powerful artifacts, so it's perfect for self-defense," Ye Yanran said somewhat unwillingly. This was consistent with her personality. After all, she was a female thief, so it was impossible for her to return empty-handed after visiting a mountain of treasures.
But this time, she was not doing it for herself, but for Mu Hanyan. She could see that as her strength increased, the enemies Mu Hanyan faced became stronger and stronger, and the use of the Cangxuan Cloud Silk was becoming less and less.
"Even if it's a divine weapon, it still needs someone to use it," Jiang Yuzhe said unhappily. This time, his IQ seemed to finally be on point.
Several people started arguing with each other accidentally.
"Stop arguing and let Hanyan make the decision." Huayue said with a frown.
Mu Hanyan glanced at Ye Lanxun and did not make a rash decision.
"No matter what you decide, I will stay by your side. If there is any danger, I will do my best to protect them." Ye Lanxuan held Mu Hanyan's hand and said gently.
Of course he knew what Mu Hanyan was hesitating about, and he also knew that she was not worried about her own safety, but did not want to put Hua Yue and others in danger because of her momentary impulse.
"Okay, then let's go in and take a look." With Ye Lanxun's words, Mu Hanyan's heart calmed down and she quickly made up her mind.
Although the sorcery used by Zhao Lingxian and the others was too cruel and bizarre, as Ye Yanran had said, it would be a pity to abandon this ancient relic knowing that it contained a rare treasure. The path of cultivation is full of twists and turns and dangers. Hesitation will never lead to reaching the pinnacle. That is not Mu Hanyan's character.
"Do you know how to get in?" Jiang Yuzhe realized at this time that they had been arguing for a long time, but had overlooked the most important issue: it was not so easy to enter this ancient ruins, otherwise Zhao Lingxian and others would not have had to go through so much trouble. It must be because they could not open the door that they had to use the Honghuang Contract to try to open the door from the inside.
"It shouldn't be too difficult." Mu Hanyan smiled slightly, then flew up.
Others didn't notice it, but she had noticed it a long time ago. Just above the stone gate, where the golden light of the ancient contract had flashed, there was a small depression, and the shape was exactly the same as the dragon and phoenix jade pendant on her body.
The ancestors of the Han and Tang families were not very powerful back then, so it was obviously impossible for them to open the door directly, let alone use strange techniques like the Primordial Contract to enter the ancient ruins. The only thing they could rely on was this dragon and phoenix jade pendant.
"Click." With a slight sound, Mu Hanyan had embedded the jade pendant into the door.
In an instant, golden rays of light appeared again, but they were so peaceful, so harmonious, and so sacred.
The huge and heavy stone door slowly opened, and golden light shone through the gap in the door.
Everyone opened their eyes wide and looked into the palace.
Ye Yanran was fine, but Hua Yue and the others were all stunned. This palace was exactly the same as the palace carved out by the Aolai divine beast with a single claw in Feilai Peak.
Since the ancestors of the Han and Tang families had visited the palace many years ago, there were not many rare treasures left in the palace. There was only an ancient mirror inlaid on the high stone throne, and the brilliant golden light came from this ancient mirror.
Looking at this ancient mirror, everyone felt a strange feeling in their hearts, as if under the illumination of the peaceful, harmonious yet sacred golden light, their bodies became unusually light, as if they had broken free from the constraints of the body, traveled through time and space, and arrived in a completely different world.
Mu Hanyan also looked at the ancient mirror and her heart was shocked.
If I remember correctly, every time the memory inheritance of the Aolai divine beast awakens, the chest position of the mysterious and powerful female armor that appears in my mind is embedded with such an ancient mirror, exactly the same.
Could this be a relic she left behind?!
It turned out that the palace didn't hide any vicious beast or killing weapon, but this ancient mirror. Actually, it made sense. If it really was a vicious beast or killing weapon, how could the ancestors of the Han and Tang families have escaped so easily?
Unless someone saw it firsthand like Mu Hanyan did, no one could possibly imagine how powerful that mysterious woman was. Nor could anyone imagine the allure of the artifacts she left behind for practitioners.
Even Mu Hanyan was not immune to this. She felt excited and walked towards the ancient mirror involuntarily.
"Be careful!" Ye Yanran flew ahead of Mu Hanyan.
Before coming to the ancient mirror, Ye Yanran carefully examined it, not missing a single detail, whether it was the stone base under the mirror or the bricks and stones around it.
Everyone then understood what she was doing. Just as there are often ferocious beasts guarding rare treasures, many people who collect rare treasures will often set up mechanisms or defensive barriers around them. Ancient ruins are no exception. As a female thief, Ye Yanran is of course very familiar with this.
Everyone was moved. Although Ye Yanran was familiar with the art of traps and had extensive experience, her strength was far inferior to theirs, let alone Mu Hanyan's. This was an ancient relic, not some aristocratic family's treasure trove. If there were any traps or barriers, she wouldn't be able to withstand them.
But she didn't hesitate at all and rushed ahead of Mu Hanyan as fast as she could.
After checking three times, Ye Yanran did not find any mechanism or barrier. Hua Yue and others were relieved, and Ye Yanran also breathed a sigh of relief.
"It seems that I was overthinking it. There is no mechanism or barrier here." Ye Yanran showed a light smile and turned her head to say.
"Be careful!" At this moment, Ye Lanxuan exclaimed.
Almost at the same time he spoke, suddenly, a golden light flashed on the ancient mirror, and a huge pillar of lightning came fiercely towards Ye Yanran with a roar.
