NOVEL NEXT Chapter 231: The Ruins Appear
The Fairy Lingxia's delicate eyebrows slightly furrowed as she spoke with an air of arrogance, "Zhao Yu, why haven't you made your move?"
Zhao Yu glanced at the Fairy Lingxia, and with a wave of his hand, a pitch-black Spirit Coffin flew out. The lid of the coffin flew open and the Gold Corpse Emperor walked out from within, sweeping the Fairy Lingxia with an icy gaze, as a fierce aura emanated from its body.
"A Fourth Order mid-grade corpse demon!"
All the present Nascent Soul Cultivators, with their extraordinary experiences, showed a hint of gravity in their eyes after seeing the Gold Corpse Emperor.
Fairy Lingxia herself stepped back several paces, her beautiful eyes filled with dread as she stared intently at the Gold Corpse Emperor, clearly perceiving its terrifying nature.
A hint of dread passed through the eyes of the Old Monster of the Black Clouds, "He has actually cultivated such a ferocious corpse demon; no wonder he could kill True Monarch Tianli! I've never seen such a corpse demon before, but it's definitely one of the very best!"
The Sanjue Scholar and the True Monarch of Dry Wood, two other Nascent Soul Cultivators, also showed a trace of dread in their eyes.
Under the deterrence of the Gold Corpse Emperor, Zhao Yu studied leisurely for three days before finally placing his hand on the groove, infusing it with the mana of the Mountain Sutra.
The seemingly ordinary cliff wall immediately began to tremble, and a huge earthy-yellow gate appeared before the four, slowly opening.
"Success!"
Upon seeing the fully opened gate, a trace of ecstasy flashed across the eyes of the Old Monster of the Black Clouds.
The other three Nascent Soul Cultivators also showed delight on their faces.
The most precious treasures within these ancient relics are the Spiritual Medicines that have grown for untold tens of thousands of years. Should cultivators find the ancient relic's Spiritual Medicine gardens, they can make a fortune.
Zhao Yu had previously obtained many ten-thousand-year-old Spiritual Medicines in the Mountain Sect's medicine garden, but of course, the largest number of ten-thousand-year-old medecines was found within the Earth Immortal Map.
When the gate was fully opened, the whole island began to tremble continuously and then began to rise from the sea.
The entire sea area surged as a continent with a diameter of over a hundred thousand miles rose from the Blue Sky Sea.
An enormous ancient relic, too vast to measure, appeared before the five, and an incredibly rich spiritual energy emanated from it, spreading in all directions.
Excitement shimmered in the eyes of the Sanjue Scholar, his voice trembling slightly, "This is the spiritual energy of a Fifth Order Spirit Vein! No, it's a Fifth Order high-grade Spirit Vein! There is a Fifth Order high-grade Spirit Vein here!!"
The other Nascent Soul Cultivators' eyes brightened, reflecting a scorching desire.
Within the Blue Sky Sea domain, there are also Fifth Order Spirit Veins. However, even Hao Hai, the Lord of the Sea God Meeting, merely occupies a Fifth Order mid-grade Spirit Vein.
That Fifth Order high-grade Spirit Vein is the foundation of a powerful force. Even Nascent Soul Cultivators who do not wish to establish forces, if they could occupy a Fifth Order high-grade Spirit Vein, could increase their cultivation speed and cultivate various top-tier Spiritual Medicines.
The most important point is that within such a Spiritual Land nurtured by a Fifth Order high-grade Spirit Vein, it is much easier to give birth to ten-thousand-year-old Spiritual Medicines. The lower the grade of the Spirit Vein, the harder it is to produce ten-thousand-year-old Spiritual Medicines.
The Old Monster of the Black Clouds quickly regained his composure, "Quick! The disturbance here is too great, impossible to hide from the beast tribes of the Blue Sky Sea! They will send someone to investigate soon!"
The Sanjue Scholar asked, "Who goes in first?"
No one knew what lay beyond the gate, and if the ancient relic within was filled with creatures like Gold Corpses, even Nascent Soul Cultivators could be besieged and killed.
"I'll go!"
Fairy Lingxia slapped her Spirit Beast Bag at her waist, and a very beautiful second-order high-grade white cat demon beast leaped out from it.
Fairy Lingxia said, "Xiao Bai, go and explore! If there's no danger, come back!"
The white demon cat beast nodded slightly, leaped into the door, and after a short while, jumped out from the door, emitting a series of cries.
Fairy Lingxia said, "There is no danger near the door!"
"Then I'll go in first!"
The Old Monster Heiyun stepped directly into the door.
Zhao Yu had the Nine Extremes Corpse Emperor follow behind Old Monster Heiyun into the door, while he himself followed behind the Nine Extremes Corpse Emperor and entered as well.
The other three Nascent Soul cultivators also stepped into the door one after another.
Upon entering the door, everyone saw spiritual peaks appearing before their eyes, many of which seemed to have been cut in half by someone, and were badly damaged.
Some spiritual peaks were bare and lifeless, evidently because of battles between Nascent Soul or Divinity Transformation cultivators. The power of their magical treasures remained to this day, causing those areas to be devoid of life.
Yet more spiritual peaks were lush with greenery, with various spirit plants growing on them.
Among the multitude of spiritual peaks, there was one that reached tens of thousands of feet high, upon which exquisite and luxurious palaces sat, clearly the main peak of this ancient ruin.
The five Nascent Soul cultivators exchanged glances and quickly moved towards that main peak.
Below the sea floor of that oceanic domain, there lay a cluster of exquisite and luxurious palaces.
A young cultivator wearing blue clothes, with incomparable handsome features and dragon's horns on his head, was lounging on a jade couch, enjoying the beautiful dance of clam maidens in front of him.
Several stunning maidens knelt beside the blue-clad cultivator, attending to him.
The palace suddenly shook violently, and numerous plates fell to the ground.
The shrimp soldiers, crab generals, clam maidens, and snake maidens all looked panicked and scattered in all directions.
"What on earth happened?"
The handsome young cultivator with dragon's horns slightly furrowed his brow and turned into a streak of Escape Light, flying outside the palace, where he saw the continent rising from the seabed.
The handsome cultivator with dragon's horns flashed a look of burning desire and said, "This surge of spiritual energy! An ancient ruin has emerged!! And from these tremors, it's definitely a God Transformation Grand Sect!"
Many powerful demon races lived underneath the sea of the Blue Sky Sea domain, which was also rich in spirit veins, including Fifth-Order Spirit Veins. The ocean contained many Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures rarely seen on land, and conversely, the land also had many treasures rarely seen at the sea bottom.
Sites left behind by human God Transformation Grand Sects were also very useful for those oceanic demon beasts.
"Young Master! This is a heaven-sent opportunity! If you can find some top-notch millennia-old Spiritual Medicine inside, you could advance to Fourth Order Middle Grade!"
A Fourth Order Low-Grade Great Demon of Transformation, three zhang tall, covered in blue patterns, with a head resembling a shrunken whale, appeared beside the handsome cultivator with dragon's horns.
The handsome cultivator with dragon's horns said, "The emergence of an ancient ruin will certainly attract many coveters! General Lan, I request your assistance!"
General Lan cracked a smile and said, "Rest assured! The enemies of the Young Master are my enemies!"
The handsome cultivator with dragon's horns and General Lan turned into two streaks of Escape Light, flying toward the ancient ruins. Following behind them were dozens of Third-Order demon beasts, along with hundreds of Second-Order demon beasts.
Elsewhere above the sea, a column of water rose into the air, as a demon in black clothes with a sinister face, a Fourth-Order Great Demon of Transformation, flew towards the ancient ruins.
