“Do you remember going through these ruins, Fairy Xiangyue Haven't you found anything else besides those trees and strange plants here” Scenery Xiang asked.
“I came here to look for medicinal herbs. I've been through many places, but of all the things you can find here, there are only these huge trees and the odd plants. I didn't see any herbal gardens and there aren’t mountains here either; you can watch the entire ancient holy place from above.” Fairy Xiangyue replied.
Scenery Xiang felt that this place was not as simple as it seemed. It could be called the Ancient Holy Place for a reason, so there must be something special about it. This reminded him of Wu Changhong's situation; Wu Changhong was the King, so if this place were truly an Ancient Holy Place, then it would most likely be where the King族 originated from.
Although Wu Changhong gave him the map, she must have seen it herself and didn't mention anything when she gave it to Scenery Xiang.
However, Scenery Xiang still believed that this place could very well be where the King族 was born. It would not be wrong to call it an Ancient Holy Place.
“These trees are huge. I could have lived in them!” Scenery Xiang observed the far apart giant trees around him. The canopy of these huge trees blocked out the sunlight, creating a humid atmosphere below them while still having very fresh air.
“Technically, yes, but there's nothing good here. Even medicinal herbs are scarce. I was very disappointed when I came last time, Fairy Xiangyue said as a mage searching for spirit herbs can have very frustrating experiences. Sometimes it takes years of effort to find nothing at all in one place.
Therefore, mages like Fairy Xiangyue have traveled to many places before.
“Maybe you're just too unskillful in your N涅槃 realm, Fairy Xiangyue. You couldn't find that herbal garden.” Scenery Xiang said with amusement.
Fairy Xiangyue was still in doubt, and if this place weren't too dangerous, she wouldn’t have accompanied Scenery Xiang here even though he was very alone in his decision to come.
“Those thunder beasts don't seem to enter these ruins!”
Fairy Xiangyue nodded. “They're tied to Bloodthunder Ocean. If they don't receive thunder strikes daily, they wouldn't survive. So if you get chased by them, as long as you can flee into these ruins, you'll be safe.”
Scenery Xiang became more puzzled. He felt that the thunder beasts were not born by chance in Bloodthunder Ocean.
“So, these thunder beasts can protect the ancient holy place. Perhaps there's a race hidden here or something.” Scenery Xiang said.
Fairy Xiangyue shook her head. “I've been here for two years, and all I see are these huge trees blocking out the sunlight and strange plants. I haven't seen anything else.”
After resting, Scenery Xiang stretched and realized his body was stronger now. “Xiangyue, your blood is really good stuff. It made my body stronger, and I feel like I'll be able to enter the Immortal Body stage XIV soon!”
“What” Fairy Xiangyue said, shocked. “You're already in the XIV stage of the Immortal Body”
Scenery Xiang grinned. “Isn't that impressive”
Fairy Xiangyue thought warmly about Scenery Xiang, but also felt a little shy because of the situation. Then she said, “Let's go! After I find that herbal garden, Fairy Xiangyue, you can leave before me and stay here. I need to stay inside for some time.” Scenery Xiang said, wanting to see what secrets were hidden in this place. He also needed time to cultivate the ingredients and fruits he would need for Life Reversing Pill and Creation Fruit.
“No way! You must come back with me, Scenery Xiang. It's too dangerous for you to stay alone here. What will I tell Meng'er then” Fairy Xiangyue said.
Scenery Xiang grunted. “Alright, then. Since I've been here once before, it won't be difficult to enter again next time. I have the Rostrum Gate here. If I record its coordinates inside, I can use it to directly travel through space next time. It's very convenient.”
Scenery Xiang suddenly remembered that there might already be coordinates of this place recorded inside the Rostrum Gate since it was given to him by Wu Changhong.
Scenery Xiang had now fully trusted Fairy Xiangyue, so he naturally wasn't afraid of revealing the secret of Rostrum Gate. So he took it out.
Seeing Scenery Xiang take out a small stone plate with some spirit patterns and ancient symbols on it, Fairy Xiangyue's eyes were caught by its beauty.
“What is this” Fairy Xiangyue asked.
“A good thing. If I'd known Bloodthunder Ocean was so dangerous, I wouldn't have let you risk crossing space with me. Hehe, who knows if I would be able to take advantage of you otherwise.” Scenery Xiang said with wickedness, thinking about Fairy Xiangyue's beautiful jade body and his touch of her during their recent activities.
“Bad boy! You're still talking about it, huh” Fairy Xiangyue pouted and punched Scenery Xiang's chest lightly.
Scenery Xiang smiled and started pouring divine energy into Rostrum Gate. Surprisingly, he quickly found a left side that was in the ancient holy place and cursed himself for being stupid. Wu Changhong would have been one of the many people on Great King Continent, so there should be the most coordinates from her recorded there. He should have thought about using this Rostrum Gate sooner.
Looking at the locations recorded on Great King Continent, there were many throughout that entire land. Scenery Xiang felt the need to have a complete map of Great King Continent, so he could see if there were any good things hidden in those locations.
The rings on the stone plate started rotating automatically, and his essence energy was being sucked in.
A beam of light suddenly shot out from the center of the plate, heading forward. A door formed before them, leaving Fairy Xiangyue in awe since she felt spatial energy and realized Scenery Xiang opened a space there.
“W-What kind of magic tool” Fairy Xiangyue asked in surprise.
“A gift from an old senior. Impressive, right Let's go!” Scenery Xiang said, pulling Fairy Xiangyue into the Rostrum Gate.
In Fairy Xiangyue's knowledge, only martial artists can open spatial doors using advanced fighting techniques that consume much energy. She could do it too, but only for short distances and would require a large amount of essence energy.
After entering the Rostrum Gate, Scenery Xiang and Fairy Xiangyue arrived at a ruined area. This surprised Fairy Xiangyue.
“Here... Is this in the ancient holy place” Fairy Xiangyue looked at the broken, giant stone buildings, many of which had collapsed likely from a fierce battle.
Those buildings were very huge, and she saw bricks the size of houses. This meant that there was once a group of very powerful people living here, those being the first King族.
Scenery Xiang looked around and saw some large trees in the distance, confirming that they were still inside the ancient holy place. There was also a spatial array protecting this ruin, and there were spirit patterns on the ground releasing weak energy.
“This ruin has always been protected by an array, and it can't be seen from outside.” Scenery Xiang said.出一粒地玄丹，這粒地玄丹蘊含的能量非常多且品質高。可以讓他快速煉化成真氣。就在他打算吃下這粒丹藥的時候，天空中突然飄來一片五彩雲。雲小刀、蕭仇、朱榮、騰鷹、徐偉龍和連明東立刻睜開眼，表情嚴肅且有些難看地盯著那片飄來的五彩雲。這片散發著五彩霞光的厚雲飄來，他們浸泡的黑色熔岩突然沸騰起來！隨之便是一股逼人的熱氣籠罩而下。“這是……五行天火劫嗎？”段崇瞪大了眼睛，眼中閃過一絲恐懼。“是五行天火雷劫！”龍...
