Qishan is very close to the capital, even the eighth prince Zhao Li knew that the ruins were there.
Even with the key in hand, he was still helpless and could not open the underground palace of the ruins.
There were about a hundred stone pillars in front of me, each one was about ten feet in diameter and three feet high.
It can be moved and seems to be arranged according to some pattern.
The ground was paved with stone slabs and slides, on which time had left deep marks, and the cracks were filled with weeds.
In the center of these stone pillars, a round stone door is quietly embedded in the ground.
The middle of the round door is hollow, and now lies a jade key that fits it.
This is what the Eighth Prince left here.
However, this stone door cannot be opened easily. If you want to open it, you need to break the formation.
At this time, a large number of martial arts masters were scattered around.
In groups of three or five, or alone, they hide in various places.
Among them, those who are confident in their own strength settled in a position closer to the ruins.
Those who are not confident in their own abilities will be left far behind, but they also hope to get a piece of the pie.
"Teacher, so many people have come, why hasn't anyone been able to open the door yet?" The eighth prince hid in a place, blending in with the surroundings, without any followers.
Seeing the interconnected array marks on the ground, he inserted the key.
However, he failed because he did not understand the formation.
At this moment, the old man Baihun in the ring sighed and said, "I never thought that this key could not open it, but you spread the news.
I believe that those who understand the art of formations can come and hopefully open it."
The eighth prince Zhao Li was a little confused when he heard these words.
In the past, my teacher knew everything about elixirs and formations, so why can't he open this door now?
Even if the secret of this formation cannot be opened by even my teacher, can the people who come now open it?
However, although Zhao Li had doubts, he still found a reason.
Perhaps it was because the formation was inherited differently, and this was the only idea he could come up with. He had never thought about it in depth.
The claim that it only takes three months is of course false.
If you say it's too short, then those who can't come won't come.
If you say that time is long, then some people will become slow, which is something the Eighth Prince Zhao Li cannot accept.
So after much thought, I decided to set a time of three months.
"What the hell is inside this ruin? Is it just this stone that's trapped us?"
A grandmaster of a wandering cultivator waited for a whole day, but still no one could open the ruins.
Feeling impatient, he didn't want to wait any longer, so he took action.
He circulated his internal energy and struck the stone plate on the ground with his palm.
If it were an ordinary stone plate, it would surely shatter into powder after being hit by the Grandmaster.
Seeing him like this, everyone did not stop him.
With a loud "bang", smoke and dust scattered everywhere.
The Grand Master only felt his arm go numb, with smoke and dust scattered everywhere, but he found that the stone gate was intact.
"What the hell is this? I've never seen such a hard stone in my life." The grandmaster struck again, this time using all his strength.
But the result is still the same, there is no effect.
Seeing that the man who had taken action was somewhat angry, the Grandmaster of a white-robed swordsman said with a smile: "Don't try. If it can be opened, it won't be your turn."
"Ha." The Grand Master who had taken action sneered at this.
"Who did I think it was? It turned out to be an ungrateful person? I remember you were also from the Central Plains, so why weren't you there when the Central Plains Blood Demon invaded?"
The white-robed swordsman was stunned and a little embarrassed when he heard this, but he immediately found an excuse: "I'm just in seclusion."
"Haha, I laughed my teeth off.
Then why do you seem to have come out of seclusion since the ruins were discovered?" The man who had attacked taunted again, but then stopped attacking.
Sit aside and wait to see who can open it.
The white-robed swordsman snorted coldly, unable to find any words to refute, and then said, "Don't waste your energy. Not even the Supreme Grandmaster can open this thing."
This relic was naturally discovered by a supreme grandmaster, and someone even tried to attack it with the supreme will, but it had no effect.
And not just one, but most of the supreme grand masters did not show up.
Most of them are hiding far away, and only the leaders of some major martial arts sects show up in person.
Among them are Tiangang Sect, Tiexue Sect, Guxuan Sect, and Luohong Sect.
Four of the two sects and five schools in the Central Plains came, and brought with them some grand masters and elders, so it was quite lively.
There are also some from other sects and families.
However, the ancestors of the three major families in Jiangnan did not come. It seemed that the parchment scroll of the third prince fascinated them even more.
Similarly, the royal family also sent secret guards and Luowang here, which shows that they are well prepared.
The entire ruins are a mixed bag, with people of all kinds and of course, people of the righteous side as well as those of the evil side.
There were also many people with blood feuds who gathered together and fought continuously.
However, since the ruins have not been opened yet, you still have some rationality.
After all, they didn't know what was inside, so they just waited here and no large-scale fight occurred.
As for the fairy island, it is said that someone has come, but it is not known whether it is true or not.
At least he hasn't been seen at the scene yet, or he may not show up even when he arrives.
At this moment, a burst of urgent voices and the sound of weapons clashing suddenly filled the air, breaking the original silence.
A team of martial arts masters came like a violent storm, holding all kinds of weapons and aggressively clearing a passage.
There were also several great masters among them, who, with their aura, made those who wanted to resist move away silently.
The leader was Boss Wu, one of the seventy-two island masters. He had sharp eyes and a gloomy face, and held a Green Wave Fragrance Dew Knife in his hand.
He shouted loudly: "Get out of the way, get out of the way! Anyone who doesn't want to die, get out of here!"
With such words, this scene immediately attracted the attention of countless people, and even the supreme grandmasters hiding in the dark couldn't help but stick their heads out to take a peek.
But behind these dozen people, there were six women protecting them, four of whom were pretty, which was not surprising.
What was strange was that of the remaining two people, one wore a veil and did not want to show his face, and he was carrying extremely strange weapons.
The other one looked like a little girl of eight or nine years old, and she looked innocent and cute.
But it also looks old-fashioned and weird to the extreme.
Boss Wu respectfully cleared a space, then bowed his head and saluted the little girl, saying, "Grandma, we're here."
