"Are we almost there?"
Now that Li Ming is a first-rank Celestial Martial Saint, he is naturally qualified to enter the cabin. Hearing the commotion outside, he came out out of curiosity.
This place is very close to the Azure Sky Ancient Domain, so the flying boat naturally can't just fly in directly.
The flying boat stopped not far away outside Youyue City, which has now become an extremely popular place, attracting many people from various major sects and ancient families.
"This land is so beautiful, it has attracted countless heroes to bow down before it..."
Looking at the scenery of this world, Li Ming couldn't help but sigh, he had never seen such a magnificent scene in his previous life.
"This person is so young, yet his cultivation is unfathomable. I wonder which family's genius he belongs to."
"What's so strange about that? The holy sons of the Nine Yang Sect and the Divine River Sect have come. It is said that many geniuses from holy lands and great sects of other continents, as well as the successors of ancient families, have come. Even the true disciples of the Myriad Laws Heaven Sect have come."
"They say these people are all extraordinary individuals in their twenties or thirties. It's truly infuriating to compare oneself to others..."
Seeing Li Ming walk out of the cabin, his figure was tall and slender, his appearance was like jade, and his temperament was like that of an immortal. As he walked, it seemed that there was an immortal aura surrounding him, which made him look even more extraordinary and otherworldly, as if he had been banished from the immortal realm.
Many martial artists on the deck whispered among themselves, only glancing at the young master before daring not to look any longer, for fear of displeasing him.
There were also some female practitioners present who were immediately captivated and eager to rush over and fawn over her.
This is thanks to Li Ming's "Peerless Beauty" entry; before we knew it, the entry was almost purple.
Its function is very simple: it gives him a little bit of special effects, making it a perfect tool for showing off.
Even though Li Ming's appearance isn't what it used to be, he's still quite handsome, and with the added special effects, he's devastatingly good-looking.
"I didn't expect that the Qingtian Ancient City would emerge so quickly."
Li Ming thought to himself.
His original plan was to secretly retrieve the treasure left behind by the Azure Sky God King, but unexpectedly...
On the way, I learned about the emergence of the God King's ruins.
This made him somewhat depressed.
After all, this means that countless forces will be paying attention, and it may be much more troublesome for him to obtain it smoothly.
"I hope His Majesty the God-King has already made arrangements."
Boom!
Just then, a deafening sound erupted from the distant mountains.
Even from hundreds of miles away, the air ripples with endless waves of energy.
"What's going on?"
"That's the site of the Azure Sky Ruins!"
As the shockwave rose into the air, the martial artists on the spirit boat were not alarmed but delighted. Some of the martial artists who were originally inside the cabin came out one after another, and some even rushed out without regard for anything else.
Because they saw an extremely dazzling golden light shining in the distance, and among those mountains, they could clearly see an incredibly magnificent mushroom cloud rising into the sky, then continuously spreading out shockwaves, tearing apart the sea of clouds for thousands of miles.
Within that golden light, those with exceptional eyesight could vaguely discern magnificent and resplendent palaces emerging, their ancient and imposing aura seemingly emanating from thousands of miles away.
"Could it be that the ancient city of Qingtian has been reborn?"
"The rumors are true. Those forces have torn through the outer barrier and are able to enter the interior of the Azure Sky Ruins directly."
At this moment, countless people suddenly appeared outside the Azure Sky Ancient Domain; they were all rogue martial artists who had received the news and were trying their luck.
Many years ago, after the Azure Sky God King disappeared, the entire Azure Sky Ancient Domain was activated by an unremovable divine array that would suppress the cultivation of martial artists and greatly reduce their strength.
The outer regions of the Azure Sky Ancient Domain are teeming with monsters and are extremely dangerous.
Furthermore, the inner area, specifically the Qingtian Ancient City region, is so heavily guarded that even martial gods dare not enter.
After all, this was a restriction set up by the Azure Emperor and the Azure Heaven God King, and no one wanted to go and die.
Over the years, at most a few daring rogue cultivators risked their lives to go to the outer perimeter, but those who went to the inner area to take a gamble never returned.
However, the world has changed drastically, and most of the formations in the outer areas have become ineffective. Many martial artists have benefited greatly from them. Now it seems that the formations inside the area may also be gradually becoming ineffective.
It's also possible that some powerful formation masters from the sacred ground broke the spell.
all in all.
At this moment, the thoughts of many independent martial artists were very simple.
Even if they don't go to the inner areas, they can still make some profits on the outskirts!
唳~
Almost at the same time, a bird's cry rang out in the sky, deafeningly loud.
The cry was incredibly loud and piercing, as if it were about to tear everyone's eardrums apart. The moment it rang out, many people immediately covered their ears, feeling a wave of dizziness.
Boom!
Then suddenly a gale arose in the void, and all kinds of grass, trees and sand were blown into the air and spun around by tornadoes. Even some martial artists with low cultivation levels were swept up into the air.
A dense pressure filled the air, making it difficult for the birds, beasts, and spirits in the mountains and fields to move.
"It's demonic energy again!"
Amidst the howling wind, Li Ming's white robes billowed in the wind, but given his current physique, he was naturally unaffected.
He instantly understood the true nature of this oppressive aura.
It wasn't caused by human warriors, but rather, like the pressure from the Heavenly Dragon they had experienced before, it was the aura of the demon race, though not that of a dragon.
Meanwhile, the many independent cultivators on the spirit boat were in dire straits, almost all of them being swept away from the ground.
"Grass!"
"It's over...I'm going to die!"
"There's a demonic aura!"
"Could it be an attack by a powerful demon? How is that possible!"
Some people screamed in agony, unable to withstand the evil wind, while some martial artists with high cultivation immediately circulated their qi and blood, activating their true qi and true essence to resist the evil wind.
This was not a naturally formed gale, but rather something deliberately created by a powerful demon. It seemed to have formed a giant mouth, sweeping them upstream and devouring them completely.
Li Ming looked up at the sky and, through the overwhelming demonic aura, saw a golden-winged roc that blotted out the sky, appearing and disappearing in the air.
The moment it appeared, everyone in the area could no longer see the great sun in the sky.
A massive shadow stretched for miles, enveloping the cities.
The figure was thousands of feet in the sky, and could cause a devastating attack simply by flapping its wings.
"The Golden-Winged Roc is the king of the Heavenly Roc Clan!"
"This great demon is at least one of the top celestial demons. Is he also here for the God King's secret treasure?"
At this moment, countless martial artists were filled with despair.
The Tianpeng Clan is the royal family among the birds of the demon race, and the Golden-Winged Roc is the king among kings. It is naturally powerful and blessed by the heavens. Its physical body is like that of the dragon race, which is the best in the world. It is no weaker than the divine body of the human race, and its speed is the best among all races in the world. It is considered to have unparalleled combat power among its peers.
Legend has it that when the Golden-Winged Roc truly matures and stands high in the sky, it can devour hundreds of cities and countless living beings with just a flap of its wings and an open mouth.
They are an invincible race that can rival true dragons and true phoenixes.
A sudden gust of wind arose in the mountains and forests, and a tornado swept up countless plants and living creatures.
In mid-air, many martial artists shouted loudly.
This scene was extremely terrifying, and Li Ming's eyes flickered slightly as he gazed at the sky:
"It is said that the heart of the Tianpeng Clan is a precious pearl, which gathers all its essence. If a human warrior can devour and refine it, the benefits will be immeasurable."
"This Golden-Winged Roc's Heart Pearl must be even more precious."
He could sense that the Golden-Winged Roc contained a vast amount of blood energy, like a sea, and its physique was much stronger than the Heavenly Dragon he had killed before.
He had a premonition that if he could refine the Heart Pearl, it would be of great benefit to him!
However, Li Ming turned his gaze to a point a hundred miles away on the ground.
There was a powerful aura there.
It seems that many of the most outstanding talents of the human race have gathered here.
