Chapter 438: Entering the White Fox Ruins
After returning to the cave, Ye Changsheng saw Bing Feng waiting there as soon as he entered the door.
"Have you got the Wind-Fixing Pearl?" Bing Feng hurriedly came up to him after seeing him, and asked with a hint of concern in her tone.
"Well, we have got it. We will set out to go deep into the Luoyue Mountains next month!" Ye Changsheng said softly.
Bing Feng was a little worried when she heard this, and couldn't help but say, "Not to mention how dangerous the ruins are, there are many obstacles on the way to the ruins. I'm afraid we might even encounter a combined beast!"
"With your current level of cultivation, it is too dangerous to enter there!"
Ye Changsheng smiled softly when he heard this, walked forward and put his arms around her slender waist, and whispered: "Don't think that I am only in the late stage of the Spiritualization Realm now, but even if I meet someone in the late stage of the Void Refining Realm, I have the confidence that I can fight him!"
"Although I can't defeat a beast in the Fusion Stage, I can always escape!"
"Moreover, I have studied the art of talismans over the years, and have been able to refine a new Taiyi Huaqing Talisman with even stronger concealment power. With the help of this talisman, I will be able to hide from the spiritual sense of a cultivator in the fusion stage!" Ye Changsheng said to comfort her.
In fact, with his careful study over the years, his understanding of the field of talismans has made more than just leaps and bounds.
Not only was he able to refine the more powerful Taiyi Huaqing Talisman, he also had a rough grasp of the other two talismans on that half page of the Golden Que Jade Book.
They are Jia Yuan Fu and Jiu Gong Tian Qian Fu respectively.
The Jia Yuan Talisman is a puppet talisman. When this talisman is cast, it can summon a shadow puppet with the same cultivation level as Ye Changsheng to fight the enemy.
The Nine Palaces Heavenly Stems Talisman is a kind of talisman formation.
The so-called talisman formation, as the name suggests, is to use talismans to form an array.
The Nine Palaces Heavenly Stems Talisman is quite troublesome to refine, and requires a large amount of materials, but after this talisman is successfully refined, it forms a very powerful talisman formation.
The only function of the talisman array is to trap the enemy, and it can trap powerful enemies inside.
If he could refine a set of such talisman arrays, Ye Changsheng would be much more confident when he met a cultivator who had achieved the state of fusion.
As for the last talisman in the Golden Palace Jade Book, the attacking Tian Ge Talisman, Ye Changsheng still has not been able to comprehend it.
This kind of talisman is even more terrifying, and it seems that it is not something that can be accessed by people at his level of cultivation.
Hearing Ye Changsheng's words, Bing Feng's worry did not lessen. She whispered, "I will go with you this time and stay in your spirit beast bracelet!"
"Although I can't help you in battle, I want to stay with you!" Bing Feng said with a hint of tenderness in her eyes.
In fact, her strength is also quite amazing. Although she is in the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, she is not afraid of those in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm.
But unfortunately, Ye Changsheng's fighting power was too extraordinary and he had already reached the level of refining emptiness.
Now, no matter how amazing Bing Feng's talent is, she cannot cross the realm to fight the enemy in the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation.
Therefore, there is little she can do to help Ye Changsheng in his current battle.
But even so, she still wanted to stay with Ye Changsheng and didn't want to wait for him in this cave in fear.
"Okay, let's go together. You stay in my spirit beast bracelet. As long as I'm alive, I will definitely protect you!" Ye Changsheng hugged Bing Feng tightly, lowered his head and said softly.
…
A month passed as scheduled. After Ye Changsheng cleaned up the cave, he met up with Yuan Lie and the other two at the city gate of Yubi City near the Luoyue Mountains.
"Brother Ye is here too. Let's go!" After seeing Ye Changsheng's arrival, Yuan Lie called everyone and flew towards the Luoyue Mountains.
"If this trip goes smoothly and I can get the Tianxin Liquid, it will be easier for me to practice the Little Big Dipper Star Yuan Gong in the future and save me a lot of trouble!" Ye Changsheng thought to himself.
For him, the two most important things on this trip were to get the Tianxin Liquid and the thick earth bead in Yuan Lie's hand.
Yuan Lie promised to give him the Thick Earth Bead after he arrived at the site where the Tianxin Liquid was stored.
As long as he had this item, Ye Changsheng would have mastered another spiritual item of the Five Elements. The only thing left was the gold element, which he had no idea about.
He followed Yuan Lie and others, recalling the various maps related to the Luoyue Mountains that he had obtained over the years.
The outer area of Luoyue Mountain is not a secret to Yubi City. It is easy to obtain information about which places are relatively safe and which places are very dangerous.
But after arriving at the core area shrouded by black gale, the relevant intelligence dropped drastically.
Very few!
However, after trying every possible means, Ye Changsheng still got some related things.
"There may be some dangers on the road from the outer area into the core area, but generally speaking, few people will die!"
"Only after we actually entered the White Fox Ruins did the danger level suddenly increase!"
"But I still have to be careful on the next leg of the journey!" Ye Changsheng thought to himself.
…
Three months later, Ye Changsheng and three other companions appeared on a mountain peak with pale faces, gazing at the dark and gloomy world ahead.
It was an area shrouded in thick black fog. It was impossible to see what was going on inside. One could only see the fierce wind stirring the fog into various shapes.
Looking up at the sky, no matter how high the place is, it is shrouded in this thick fog.
Ten thousand feet, one hundred thousand feet, one million feet...
It was as if this dark fog and strong wind were hanging from the highest point of the sky, blocking the entire world. If one wanted to enter the White Fox Ruins, one could only force their way through the dark fog and strong wind.
According to the information we had obtained previously, the higher we go, the stronger the gale will be.
The wind-fixing beads on Ye Changsheng and others can only ensure that they can safely enter the White Fox Ruins from the lowest place. Once they fly too high, their safety cannot be guaranteed.
"We're finally outside the ruins. Let's rest and adjust ourselves to the best condition before going in!" Yuan Lie looked at the dark fog for a moment, then turned around and said.
Ye Changsheng and the other two all nodded. Judging from their expressions, it was obvious that they had lost a lot of energy on the way here.
It was because they had encountered several ferocious beasts that were difficult to deal with before.
Among those fusion-level ferocious beasts, there are some that specialize in speed and are quite difficult to deal with.
It was difficult to escape as the opponent's speed was even faster than theirs. In the end, Ye Changsheng and the others paid a huge price to get rid of the ferocious beast.
But because of this, all four of them looked pale.
With such a badly damaged appearance, it is definitely impossible to enter the ruins directly.
Therefore, the four of them immediately found a cave, surrounded the cave with a formation, hid inside it, and began to regulate their breathing.
Just when Ye Changsheng and the other four were hiding in the cave to recover their strength, human figures appeared on the mountains in other directions outside the ruins.
Some of these people were alone, while others were in groups, and each of them had an extraordinary aura.
Among them, the most conspicuous is a group of more than a dozen insects with extremely fierce aura. Some of them look like flies, some like dragonflies. Their shapes are different in details, but their aura is extremely similar.
Mayfly tribe!
This tribe, which can be called the strongest tribe in Fengyuan Continent, also has a large number of people appearing here.
More than a dozen mayflies, all of whom had the aura of a virtual refining level, stayed on a mountain peak for a while, and then flapped their wings and flew towards the area shrouded by strong winds and dark fog.
He didn't even have the intention of taking a rest and went straight into the ruins.
In another direction, seven or eight creatures with human heads and bird bodies, human-shaped arms on their chests and two bird claws below, stood on a mountain peak and looked quietly at the ruins.
"The White Fox Ruins is a rare opportunity for us. If we can get some chance from it, maybe we can break through and become a celestial bird-level existence, and thus become a powerful figure in the clan!" One of them said in a deep voice.
“Hehe, it’s not that easy to break through and become a Sky Bird. There are only one or two thousand of this kind in the entire clan. Fortunately, the monsters in the Holy Nest didn’t come. If they had come, we would have no chance!”
"I heard there are hundreds of people coming this time, but the only ones who can suppress our Guli tribe are those guys from the Mayfly tribe. As long as we don't run into those people from the Mayfly tribe, the rest of them are nothing to be afraid of!"
"We don't have to be afraid of those people from the Mayfly Tribe. They have come from such a far place, and they are not the core members of the Mayfly Tribe. We may not be unable to deal with them if we meet them!"
"No matter what, we should be careful and try not to conflict with the Mayfly Clan. Let's go in now and take the lead!"
"Let's go!"
…
After some discussion, this group of ancient Li people flew into the dark fog. In addition to them, teams from some large tribes also broke into the ruins without staying for long.
More people found a safe place and planned to adjust themselves to the best condition before entering.
After Ye Changsheng and the other three had adjusted their breathing in the cave for a few days, they all adjusted their conditions to the best state and then gathered on the mountain again.
"It's time for us to set off. I hope no one has the same goal as ours!" Yuan Lie said lightly, looking at the dark fog in the distance.
"Let's go!"
A group of four flew towards that area. A light green bead appeared in Ye Changsheng's hand. He stared at the bead for a while, then raised his head and swallowed it.
Then, a faint green light appeared on his body, completely enveloping him.
The other three people also made the same move at this time.
This is the Wind-Fixing Bead. After being swallowed into the body, the green light it emits can isolate the surrounding strong winds outside the body.
After flying for a while, Ye Changsheng and the other two arrived in front of the dark and gloomy area.
There is thick evil fog ahead, which can have a serious suppressive effect on spiritual consciousness. It is said that even if a cultivator is in the state of combined power, his spiritual consciousness cannot leave the body more than a hundred feet away from it.
And in this evil fog, there was a strong gale blowing. Now the gale that Ye Changsheng and the others saw had already been severely weakened.
Standing at the edge of the evil fog, Yuan Lie slapped his storage bracelet, and a magic weapon appeared in his hand. He threw the magic weapon into the evil fog.
The magic weapon emitted a bright light and entered the fog.
"boom!"
In the blink of an eye, the magic weapon was shredded by a gust of dark wind and exploded into a pile of fragments.
Seeing this scene, everyone's heart trembled, and the two people from the Yungang tribe and the Changshen tribe showed a look of retreat on their faces for a moment.
But Yuan Lie just chuckled and then stepped into the black fog without hesitation.
The strong wind rolled in, but when it flew in front of Yuan Lie, it was blocked by the layer of misty green light.
"Everyone, it seems that this Wind-Fixing Bead can indeed resist the strong winds here!" Yuan Lie turned around and said.
Upon hearing this, Ye Changsheng and others smiled at each other and walked towards it.
After entering this dark fog, Ye Changsheng immediately felt that his spiritual consciousness was severely suppressed and could not leave the body too far.
"There are so many weird things about this place. How did this environment come into being? Just because a star fell from the sky, it wouldn't cause such a phenomenon!" Ye Changsheng thought to himself.
The information he could get about this site was really limited. After all , there was no mention of anything related to it in the original time and space.
Walking forward slowly and entering the core area, the ground in front of us became much flatter, unlike the outside world with numerous peaks and valleys everywhere.
Although there are mountains in this area shrouded in dark fog, their number is much smaller and most of the area is flat.
The biggest feature of this place seems to be its quietness. After walking for half a day, no sound could be heard except the footsteps of Ye Changsheng and his three companions.
Looking around, there was deathly silence all around, without any signs of life, as if there was no other living being in this place except the four of them.
However, the four did not relax their vigilance. Instead, they became more alert, holding magic weapons in their hands, ready to strike at any time.
There must be a reason why this place had such a high casualty rate in the past. Apart from anything else, the various remaining ancient prohibitions here are enough to take lives.
Not to mention, this is actually an ancient battlefield, with some frightening things left behind.
"roar!"
Three days later, when the four men came to a small lake, suddenly, an earth-shaking roar erupted from the lake.
Immediately afterwards, a nine-headed monster snake emerged from the lake. Its huge body was a hundred feet tall, and it exuded an extremely terrifying aura. As soon as it appeared, Ye Changsheng and the other three immediately held their breath.
"Phantom beast!"
Information about the ferocious beast that suddenly appeared before his eyes quickly flashed through Ye Changsheng's mind. That was the intelligence he had specially collected after he decided to enter the ruins.
