Battle Through the Heavens, Reborn as Xiao Yan's Sister

As time went on, the crowds in the Bone Mountain range grew ever larger, and the noise reached the heavens.

Countless people are eagerly awaiting the opening of that ancient ruin.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye. When the first rays of dawn pierced the darkness and shone on the mountains, the entire mountain range seemed to be awakened, bursting forth with amazing vitality.

Xiao Yue and the others were already fully prepared and stood on the mountaintop. Looking at the overwhelming crowd, she couldn't help but shake her head. The attraction of the ancient ruins in Zhongzhou was beyond imagination. She wondered who would have the last laugh.

Xiao Yue waved her hand lightly, her figure transforming into a streak of rainbow light, and she took the lead in rushing towards the center of the mountain range. Little Fairy Doctor and the others followed closely behind.

Due to her identity, Bei Ming Xiaomeng did not go with Xiao Yue and the others, but followed them secretly.

On her way to the ruins, Xiao Yue, with her extraordinary soul perception, sensed that the long-dormant, hidden auras in the surrounding mountains were also starting to move. Powerful figures transformed into rainbows and flashed out from the mountains, clearly heading towards the ancient ruins.

Soon after, the mountain peak where Xiao Yue and the others were located was close to the center of the mountain range.

A distorted space appeared ahead, the entrance to an ancient ruin. Xiao Yue moved and landed on a towering ancient tree. Looking around, she saw a huge basin, but this basin was already covered with white bones, forming a chilling sea of ​​bones.

A dense array of figures stood around the sea of ​​bones, their burning gazes fixed on the distorted spatial entrance.

Once the spatial seal dissipates, these figures will surge into the ruins like a tide. Xiao Yue's gaze swept across the surrounding crowd, pausing slightly in some places, a strange light flashing in her eyes. This battle for the ruins will be an unprecedented fierce struggle.

Even so, Xiao Yue never backed down. Only by forging ahead could she gain a foothold in this world full of powerful people. Bei Ming Xiao Meng, Xiao Yi Xian, and others followed closely behind, ready to provide support for Xiao Yue at any time.

The first opening of each ancient ruin is often accompanied by the birth of a Heavenly Rank Battle Technique!
In this mountain range full of unknowns and dangers, seizing a Heaven-Rank Battle Technique is by no means easy. "A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime." Even for a powerful Battle Venerable, whether he can leave safely after obtaining a Heaven-Rank Battle Technique is an unknown.

"I wonder, how does the martial art I've deduced compare to the Heavenly Rank combat techniques of this world?" Xiao Yue's eyes flickered, a surge of indescribable curiosity and anticipation rising in her heart.

After all, we can learn from others' experiences to improve ourselves!

"boom!"

Just as Xiao Yue's thoughts were racing, a subtle and strange fluctuation suddenly surged between heaven and earth, instantly drawing everyone's attention to the vast and boundless sea of ​​bones. There, the space began to distort, as if some ancient and powerful force was awakening.

The ancient ruins are finally about to reveal their mysterious veil once more. The distortion in the space intensifies, gurgling like flowing water, as if it were the most primal symphony of nature, telling the secrets of antiquity.

As they gazed at the gradually blurring energy seal, a fervent and greedy gleamed in the eyes of countless people outside the sea of ​​bones. Their breathing became heavy, and they gripped their weapons tightly, as if ready to rush into that unknown territory at any moment.

Xiao Yue frowned, staring at the distorted space. Amid the strange whistling sound, she sensed an unprecedented and terrifying energy fluctuation, a kind of rage and unease suppressed for countless years, like a harbinger of an impending volcanic eruption, making her heart pound.

"Crash!"

Another strange sound rang out, and the distorted space of the Bone Mountain Range suddenly froze. Then, a crisp cracking sound rang out, and the seemingly indestructible energy seal shattered into countless tiny fragments like fragile glass, scattering in all directions.

"Charge! The ancient ruins have been opened!"

With this deafening shout, the crowd around the Bone Sea instantly erupted into a frenzy. Like locusts swarming across the land, they rushed madly toward the center of the Bone Sea, their eyes filled only with desire and greed for the treasure.

However, amidst this frenzy, Xiao Yue remained remarkably calm. She grabbed Zi Yan beside her and retreated swiftly, moving away from the impending danger zone. Xiao Yi Xian, Mu Qing Luan, and the others reacted quickly, following closely behind and retreating just as fast.

As they retreated, many figures suddenly appeared on the giant trees that had been floating above the sea of ​​bones, hastily retreating. Clearly, they too had sensed the impending danger.

"Oh!"

With a deafening roar, the violent spatial power that had been suppressed for countless years finally erupted, raging out like a storm.

Those who charged at the very front were the first to be swallowed by the storm, their shrill screams echoing across the sea of ​​bones.

This sudden spatial storm ruthlessly reaped lives like the scythe of death. Those who were originally full of confidence now fled in all directions like frightened birds. For a time, the area outside the Bone Sea was plunged into chaos and panic.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when the storm gradually subsided.

Looking around, all that could be seen was a scene of devastation, with countless figures lying on the ground groaning in pain, their crimson blood staining the stark white sea of ​​bones, a stark and glaring sight.

"What a terrifying spatial seal! It has endured countless years and still possesses such terrifying power. It truly lives up to its reputation as a relic of a Dou Sheng powerhouse..." Little Fairy Doctor and the others exclaimed in awe as they gazed at the scene before them.

"Let's go... These guys were too impatient and are reaping what they sowed." Xiao Yue smiled slightly, waved her hand, and transformed into a streak of rainbow light, rushing towards the depths of the Bone Sea.

At the same time, the other powerful individuals who had also avoided the spatial storm also used their movement techniques, transforming into blurry figures and rushing into the sea of ​​bones.

As they ventured deeper into the Sea of ​​Bones, they discovered that the scenery here became increasingly bizarre and magnificent. A colossal silhouette, as majestic as a mountain peak, faintly emerged from the Sea of ​​Bones, resembling a sleeping ancient beast that inspired awe.

Seeing this, Xiao Yue and the others slowed down.

Judging from the previous spatial storm, this place is definitely not a benevolent place and caution must be exercised. As they approached the sea of ​​bones, the white mist in the sea of ​​bones gradually thinned, and the enormous thing was finally fully revealed to the world.

It was a huge palace thousands of feet high, its entire body crimson as if it were enveloped in flames, standing out conspicuously and out of place in this sea of ​​white bones.

Compared to this colossal palace, any building Xiao Yue had ever seen before seemed insignificant. Looking up at this enormous structure standing between heaven and earth, a sense of insignificance and awe arose spontaneously.

Many powerful figures were also gathered around the giant hall. They were all shocked by the sheer size of the crimson hall and stopped in their tracks, looking at each other with expressions of awe and wonder.

"Is this the relic left by a Dou Sheng powerhouse? It is indeed extraordinary!" someone in the crowd exclaimed in a low voice.

"Swoosh..." One figure after another slowly moved forward and finally stopped a hundred meters away from the giant hall.

Standing here, one can feel the immense size and majesty of the great hall even more, as if one can hear the whispers and echoes from ancient times.

"No wonder such a powerful spatial seal is needed to conceal the scale and aura of this giant palace. If one hadn't seen it with their own eyes, who could imagine that such an astonishing secret is hidden beneath this seemingly desolate sea of ​​bones..." Xiao Yue pondered to herself as she looked at the giant palace before her.

As they approached the grand hall, the doors slowly opened, and an ancient and mysterious aura wafted out, as if beckoning them to step into this unknown world... The crimson grand hall, wherever it was placed, became the center of attention.

Xiao Yue gazed at the scene, sighed softly, and shook her head. She led the group to leisurely retreat to a distance of a hundred miles. This ancient site of the Battle Saint was vast in scale and must contain extraordinary treasures. This trip was indeed a wise choice.

Outside the hall, powerful figures thronged like a tide, yet none dared to easily cross the line. This was because those who could reach this place were either from prestigious families or possessed extraordinary strength, and no one wanted to be the one to stand out.

Xiao Yue was not in a hurry, knowing that such a treasure must have many traps and mechanisms. Only a fool would believe that it was safe without a thorough plan.

Suddenly, the long-silent land trembled violently, as if a sleeping behemoth was slowly awakening. The majestic, unmoving palace erupted with a deafening roar, and then a massive, blood-red, and incredibly heavy door slowly rose, revealing a pitch-black passage leading to the unknown.

"The gates have opened!"

This shout ignited a frenzy in the crowd, and greed and desire instantly burned in everyone's eyes.

Unable to contain their impulses, some people moved with lightning speed to the entrance of the passage, laughing loudly as they resolutely stepped into the unknown abyss.

This scene triggered a domino effect, causing a chain reaction among the crowd. Countless figures surged toward the passage like a tide, each afraid of missing the opportunity and being beaten to it by others.

However, amidst this fervor, Xiao Yue and her group remained remarkably calm.

How could the ruins left by a Dou Sheng powerhouse be so easily trodden upon? Sure enough, just as everyone was scrambling to get there, an unexpected turn of events occurred.

The pitch-black passage was suddenly filled with crimson light. The ground cracked open, and scalding magma gushed out. At the same time, eerie blue pillars of fire shot out from the four walls of the passage. These flames seemed to have the power to devour everything, and any living thing that came into contact with them was instantly reduced to ashes.

Screams and cries of terror mingled together, turning the passageway into a living hell.

Those who were about to step into the passage were so frightened by this sudden turn of events that they all stopped in their tracks.

However, in the chaos, many people were still pushed and shoved into the sea of ​​fire by the crowd behind them, and shrill screams rose and fell, plunging the area outside the giant hall into chaos once again.

After a brief period of chaos, the crowd gradually calmed down.

The threat of death made them less greedy and more cautious. At this moment, the major powers finally began to show their strength and resources.

Although the fire path was dangerous, it was not insurmountable. People with powerful backgrounds released their boundless battle aura, enveloping themselves in it and transforming into streaks of light as they sped towards the depths of the fire path.

These powerful individuals clashed fiercely with the flames using their formidable battle aura. Although occasionally those with insufficient battle aura were consumed by the flames, most were able to carve out a path to survival in the sea of ​​fire using their own strength.

Looking at this scene, Little Fairy Doctor couldn't help but chuckle, "As expected of a relic left by a Dou Sheng powerhouse, this fire path is indeed extraordinary."

"Come on, let's go in too."

After speaking, Xiao Yue lightly flicked her sleeves, and her figure instantly transformed into a blazing silver shadow, like a shooting star streaking across the sky, swiftly rushing towards the end of the fire path.

Led by her, the group followed closely behind, traversing the passage engulfed in flames. Along the way, they occasionally glimpsed a few somber lone rangers, but what was even more perplexing was that the other groups vanished from sight without a trace, like morning mist.

Something's not right...

The Little Fairy Doctor frowned slightly, and finally spoke in a deep voice.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yue slowed down slightly, her eyes flashing as she gazed at the seemingly endless fiery red abyss ahead.

“This fire path is probably an elaborate trap,” she whispered. “The path beneath our feet is not the true entrance to the ruins. If we keep going, we may exhaust all our strength.”

Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked, their brows furrowing even more deeply. Their gazes turned to the solid walls on either side, built of unknown crimson rocks, and they secretly pondered the extraordinary nature of these rocks.

Xiao Yue fell into deep thought. After a moment, her gaze locked onto the surging crimson magma below, and she slowly said, "The real passage may be hidden beneath this scalding magma."

"Sister Xiao Yue, are you saying... the real path is below?" Little Fairy Doctor's tone was filled with disbelief. She couldn't help but murmur, "The master of this ruin is truly cunning. Who would have thought that the entrance would be hidden in such a dangerous place?"

Xiao Yue smiled knowingly and explained, "It seems the owner of these ruins is more interesting than we imagined."

After speaking, she waved her sleeve, and silver-purple lightning and fire, like outstretched wings, tightly enveloped everyone. Then, without hesitation, the group leaped into the boiling lava.

The intense heat of the magma was nothing more than a minor test for them. As they continued to sink, about a minute later, a strange power suddenly emerged, and they felt their feet sink into the ground before landing steadily on solid ground.

Everything around was completely different from the scene in the fire tunnel; an indescribable tranquility and mystery permeated the air.

Looking up, they saw that dozens of feet above them, the crimson magma twisted and entwined like living things, forming spectacular circular curtains. The fire path they had struggled to traverse now hung silently overhead like a giant dragon imprisoned.

"The scenery at the Youhai Ruins is nothing special..." Little Fairy Doctor murmured to herself.

What was said in jest was taken seriously by Xiao Yue. She was slightly taken aback, thinking of the giant bronze gate in the dark sea. If the two were of the same level, things would be much more interesting!
