Chapter 270 Heading to the Beast Realm
The next day, on the top floor of Danta, Xiao Yun packed up his belongings and found Yao Lao."What? You are going to the Beast Territory now? Not waiting for the Little Medical Fairy?" After hearing Xiao Yun's words, Yao Lao said in surprise.
"No need to wait. Last time I was in the Beast Domain, I found a relic that contained the treasures I needed. However, due to the seal on the space, I didn't go in to explore it.
Calculating the time, it will only take two days to completely break the seal, but Xian'er will need another half a month, so we will go ahead."
Then, Xiao Yun took out a space jade token from his ring and handed it to Yao Lao, and continued, "Yao Lao, when Xian'er comes out of retreat, please give this to her and crush the jade token. Then I will ask someone to open a space channel."
Half a month was enough time for him to turn the ancient ruins upside down. When the Little Medical Fairy came out of retreat, Xiao Yun himself was not sure whether she would be on the Ancient Dragon Island or run to the Nine Netherworld Python Clan.
He simply left a space jade token to the other party, so that the Little Medical Fairy wouldn't come looking for him all over the Beast Domain after coming out of retreat.
"In that case, I will give this to her after she comes out of seclusion..."
Upon hearing this, Yao Lao nodded slowly, accepted the space jade token, and continued: "The place you are talking about should be the ancient dragon ruins that have been making a lot of noise recently, right?"
"Huh? Ancient dragon ruins? Where did you find out?" Hearing what Yao Lao said, Xiao Yun was confused and asked three questions in a row.
“No need to ask, this ancient dragon ruins has long been known throughout Zhongzhou. This is a Dou Sheng-level relic, and you should know how attractive it is. Most of the first-class forces on the continent have sent people to guard there, waiting for the ruins to be opened.
If our Xingyun Pavilion had not been attacked by the Soul Palace before, Feng Xian would have also gone to join in the fun."
“Have most of the forces gone?”
"That's right, and this is the place left by a true Dou Sheng. The number of strong people there is probably greater than the ruins we found in the Northern Territory before.
But those forces are fine, I am just worried about the Soul Palace, with their background, there is no need for them to get involved in this matter, but if they knew of your existence, they might send a large number of strong men." Yao Lao said with some concern.
Xiao Yun nodded slowly. With the personalities of those rats in the Soul Palace, they would really do this. Moreover, they would not treat him like they did in the original time and space, only sending a Heavenly Master who was slightly stronger than them.
However, this ancient relic is in the Beast Realm, the base camp of the Taixu Ancient Dragon. Even if Hun Mie Sheng comes, there is nothing to be afraid of!
"Don't worry, have you forgotten Zi Yan? She will go with me this time. Her tribe is the supreme in the world of Warcraft!"
Hearing this, Yao Lao also remembered Zi Yan's identity, the Taixu Ancient Dragon. The Soul Palace could do nothing about such a mysterious race, so he immediately felt relieved.
"In that case, I will not say anything more. However, you still need to be careful in everything. I am here with Danta. I will tell the Little Medical Fairy as soon as she comes out of seclusion."
"Yeah..." Xiao Yun nodded and agreed softly.
……
After confirming that there were many powerful men stationed outside the ancient ruins, Xiao Yun no longer hesitated and set off immediately. With the help of Elder Zhuming, who opened a space wormhole, the group flew directly to the southern part of the Beast Domain.
There are five people in the team. Xiao Yun's strength is naturally needless to say. Medusa and Zi Yan's cultivation has reached the nine-star Dou Zun. Relying on the powerful bodies of the magic beasts, they can fight against even an ordinary first-level Dou Zun when they work together.
As for Qing Lin, although he has the lowest cultivation level, only a five-star Dou Zun, he has the Green Snake Three Flower Pupils, controls many snake-shaped monsters, and can also burst out the combat power of a high-level Dou Zun.
With such a lineup, it is really a waste of talent to go to an ancient ruins of the Dou Sheng level. According to the trajectory of the original time and space, there will be at most a group of low- and middle-level Dou Zuns there.
Even though his reputation has risen greatly and there is interference from the Soul Palace, with the strength of Xiao Yun and others, they can deal with it as long as they don't meet a true Dou Sheng.
……
The Beast Domain is located outside the southern region of Zhongzhou and is the southernmost part of the Douqi Continent. The ancient ruins are located in the southern part of the Beast Domain, and the distance between it and the Dan Tower is quite far.
Fortunately, with the help of Elder Zhuming, the distance and time were greatly shortened in the space wormhole. Xiao Yun and his party set out in the afternoon, and before it got dark, they had already entered the Ten Thousand Mountains.
"There are a lot more people here than the last time we came. Are they all waiting for the ruins to be opened?" In the air somewhere in a mountain range, a space crack quietly tore open, and then several figures walked out of it.
Looking at the dense white mountains in the distance, Xiao Yun's face showed a hint of surprise. He just roughly sensed it and found that there were many powerful auras. Although they were not as strong as his, they were all above the Dou Zun.
The number was even closer to three digits! This was just his rough sense, there must be many Dou Zun hiding in the dark, and they would only show up when the ruins were opened.
Nearly a hundred Dou Zun masters, this terrifying force is likely to be able to wipe out most of the top forces in Zhongzhou, but unexpectedly they are all gathered here.
And now, as the day of the opening of the ruins approaches, from time to time a figure would appear, whistling by like a strong wind, flying towards the distant Skeleton Mountain Range.
"Huh! Huh!"
Above the crowd, several streams of light quickly streaked across the sky, so fast that Xiao Yun also looked sideways. It was not until their figures rushed into the Skeleton Mountain Range that the sound of breaking wind reached his ears. "What a fast speed..." Xiao Yun exclaimed. According to his perception, the group of people before were only at the Dou Zun level, but their speed was so fast that even he, an eighth-level Dou Zun, could not catch up.
"They are the Heavenly Demon Phoenix, of course they are fast." Zi Yan on the side frowned and said with a pout.
Hearing this, Xiao Yun showed a look of realization on his face. If it was the Sky Demon Phoenix, then it would not be surprising. After all, the latter was also from the Warcraft King family. Without tearing the space, even the Taixu Ancient Dragon could not catch up with them.
Suddenly, Zi Yan seemed to remember something, her eyes rolled around in her eye sockets, and she laughed, "Xiao Yun, I heard that the wings of the Sky Demon Phoenix can be refined into flying fighting skills. If you have the wings of the Sky Demon Phoenix, I'm afraid even a Half-Saint..."
"Stop talking. For the time being, don't even think about getting the Sky Demon Phoenix. I don't need wings like this either."
Xiao Yun had been with Zi Yan for so many years that he was almost like a worm in her stomach. How could he not understand what she meant?
Taixu Ancient Dragon has always treated the Heavenly Demon Phoenix as food. The little brat said this simply because he is greedy and wants to taste the other's flesh.
If it were any other time it would be fine, but now is a critical moment and the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit cannot have the slightest mistake.
If they did as Zi Yan said and went to cause trouble for the Sky Demon Phoenix Clan, their identities would inevitably be exposed. Then the entire ancient ruins would pay attention to Xiao Yun and the others, and their every move would be infinitely magnified.
By then, the Soul Palace will also notice them, which might affect the acquisition of the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit.
"Hmph, if you don't need it, then you don't need it!" Zi Yan turned her head to look aside and said dissatisfiedly after being rejected by Xiao Yun.
"Little brat..." Xiao Yun rubbed her head, then ignored her and looked forward, saying, "There are a lot of forces gathered here now, and it's a mixed bag. We'd better not cause any trouble."
Upon hearing this, everyone except Zi Yan nodded in agreement. Then, under the leadership of Xiao Yun, everyone put on a wide black robe, wrapping their bodies in it, and attached a layer of fighting spirit barrier, making it impossible to tell the real from the fake.
After seeing that everyone was ready, Xiao Yun took the lead and flew towards the distant Skeleton Mountain Range. Afterwards, Medusa and others quickly followed.
……
As Xiao Yun and his group continued to approach the Skeleton Mountain Range, bursts of noise continued to be heard from the front, and from time to time people would even start fighting, causing violent energy fluctuations.
However, most of the people who took action had low cultivation levels, most of them were Douhuang and Douzong. After all, a true strong person still needs to retain his fighting spirit and prepare for the next battle.
Xiao Yun ignored the fight below and continued flying until he reached the sky above the dense white mountains, where he stopped.
Standing on the top of the mountain and looking down from a high vantage point, one can only see densely packed crowds of people, their heads rising and falling like a black ocean.
"The space over there is in a mess. It should be the entrance to the ruins, right?" Medusa beside him looked around and soon fixed her eyes on the void in the center of the mountain and spoke.
"Well, judging from the fluctuations of the space barrier, in two days, this relic will be completely opened!"
Hearing this, Xiao Yun nodded and continued, "It's still early, let's find a place to rest."
"Isn't it okay here?" Zi Yan asked doubtfully. In her opinion, this mountain was empty except for them, so it was a perfect place to rest.
However, Xiao Yun shook his head and said, “It’s not possible here, unless you keep the others out for the next two days. This mountain is the tallest one in this mountain range.
Anyone who comes to this ancient ruins will definitely climb up the mountain to observe it first. If we rest here, I am afraid that some trouble will arise."
After explaining to Zi Yan, he said no more. He immediately lowered his head and searched below, trying to find a place that was not occupied by others.
But because they arrived too late, the Skeleton Mountain Range was already overcrowded with people, and even a small hillside had been occupied by various forces.
"Xiao Yun, have you found it? Or should we go to the territory of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix?" Zi Yan was still obsessed with the delicious food that her tribesmen had mentioned, the Heavenly Demon Phoenix.
"Don't make a fuss. You can't go there no matter where you go! Once we enter the ruins, there will be plenty of opportunities for you to cause trouble for them!"
Just when Xiao Yun was about to give up, his eyes suddenly stopped on a small hill. There, there were many fiery red tents with flame patterns on them. It was the logo of his old acquaintance, Fenyan Valley.
"We have a place to go..." Xiao Yun chuckled, then pointed downwards and said with a smile: "That is the territory of Burning Flame Valley. Let's go there to rest. We can also get some information there."
The Skeleton Mountain Range today is different from the original time and space. Both the number and quality of Dou Zuns are far superior. Various forces and powerful people gather here. If they don't understand the situation at all, even Xiao Yun and the others will have some troubles.
"Hmm..." Everyone had no objection to Xiao Yun's decision. They immediately moved and rushed towards the camp where Fenyan Valley was located below.
