We made you practice martial arts, and you've mastered the Great Golden Body?

Chapter 124: The Unfolding of the Divine Ruins (Transition)

hum~
An invisible and intangible wave of light suddenly spread outwards from the very center of the wasteland, covering not only the ground but also the underground.

The light waves spread rapidly.

The area quickly covered a radius of several hundred miles, reaching a height of three thousand meters at its highest point, almost encompassing most of the first buffer zone.

Sudden.

When~~
It was very abrupt.

Shen Bailian suddenly felt a pain in his brain, as if his head had been hit by a heavy object, causing him to frown slightly.

This pain is nothing compared to the pain I've experienced before.

Meanwhile, a second wave of attacks arrived.

Boom~~
Shen Bailian felt as if an invisible force was squeezing his body from all sides, just like the water pressure from all sides when diving.

Even with the [Iron Body] skill, he felt that he could not move as freely as before. There were obstacles in all directions, making him feel increasingly uncomfortable.

“￥#XX￥XX&”

In just a short while, the third wave of attacks arrived. Shen Bailian was shocked to find that he heard a series of incomprehensible babbling words in his ears, which seemed to have a special rhythm and cadence.

Even with his ears covered, the sound still clearly reached his ears. It wasn't a sound transmitted through sound waves, but rather a resonance of living beings.

"What exactly is going on?"

A hint of confusion flashed in Shen Bailian's eyes, but the next moment, his pupils shrank sharply, and his confusion turned into extreme terror.

What did he see?
The ferocious beasts that had not yet retreated or died on the wasteland were also affected, but the impact seemed to be greater, and they roared in pain after only a moment.

The sound was shrill and terrifying, echoing across the vast wilderness.

Bang!Bang!Bang!
Several sounds rang out in succession, and the giant beasts crashed to the ground, writhing in agony as their fur and flesh fell away with each movement.

From the distorted expressions and frantic struggles of those ferocious beasts, it was clear that they were experiencing unimaginable pain.

then.

bang bang bang
Like firecrackers exploding, the bodies of those ferocious beasts burst open at the same time, blood and internal organs splattering everywhere, creating a bloody slaughter scene.

The wasteland was instantly filled with a strong stench of blood and the aura of death, sending chills down one's spine.

What was most terrifying was the blood, which seemed to be alive, and began to mix with the blood of the previously dead beasts.

Finally, it transformed into a pillar of blood that shot into the sky.

No, not just one, but dozens. All the blood on the wasteland gathered together, shot into the sky, streaked across the horizon, and all headed in the same direction.

In an instant.

Shen Bailian's body instantly froze on the spot, a chill ran straight to his head, and he stared blankly at the pillars of blood shooting into the sky, a deep unease rising in his heart.

Even if he lacked understanding of the matter, he could sense that something extraordinary was happening at that moment.

boom!
Shen Bailian glanced at the smart bracelet briefly, and after determining the area with the most people, he concentrated all his strength and his figure quickly disappeared from the spot.

Its speed instantly soared to 70 m/s, and it raced towards the locked-on direction.

Although he didn't know exactly what was going on.

However, we can no longer stay in this wasteland. It's far too eerie here, as evidenced by those ferocious beasts that resemble different creatures.

And not far from the wasteland.

"Ah~~"

Some of the weaker martial arts students showed pain on their faces, covering their ears, their faces flushed, and their blood was flowing uncontrollably.

After that eerie sound rang out, their blood flowed even faster, as if it were about to detach from their blood vessels, and veins bulged and were clearly visible all over their bodies.

Fortunately, everyone here is a martial artist at the Life Establishment Realm, whose bodies have been tempered by the power of heaven and earth, and whose bodies are not as fragile as those of martial arts apprentices.

Even so, their bodies trembled in pain, as if they were experiencing one of the most horrific tortures in the world.

A martial arts student named Afei, whose physical fitness level was only 12.6, suddenly stopped trembling, and a look of fear flashed in his eyes.

Then the next moment.

boom!
Afei's body suddenly exploded, just like a bursting watermelon.

His companion, Zhai Tianning, was stronger, with a physical fitness level of 12.9, which allowed him to last longer.

"Ah Fei, hold on!"

Even though Zhai Tianning was initially immersed in physical pain, he knew that A Fei was relatively weak, so he continued to encourage A Fei not to give up.

but.

But when the warm flesh and blood were splashed onto his body, and he smelled the warm, metallic scent of blood near his nose, he suddenly regained a moment of clarity.

Click~click~
Zhai Tianning mechanically turned his head, and when he saw the pool of shattered flesh on the ground, his pupils contracted sharply, his eyes trembled slightly, and tears instantly blurred his vision.
"no no"

His eyes widened as he stared at the pool of Ah Fei's mangled flesh on the ground. A surge of grief welled up inside him like a raging flood, almost overwhelming him.

"hooligan!!!"

Zhai Tianning's voice trembled and became hoarse, his blood surged, and large tears dripped onto the ground. His face turned increasingly red, and his veins bulged. He was about to repeat the same mistake.

boom!
With a dull thud, Zhai Tianning was instantly knocked unconscious, and the bulging veins on his body subsided considerably.

"You've got the strength just right." Li Shaoyang looked at the wooden stick in Qin Wuyang's hand and couldn't help but praise, "Looks like you've done this kind of thing quite a few times."

To be precise, this invisible pressure does not pose a significant threat to martial arts apprentices with a physical fitness level of 13.0 or higher.

Furthermore, the true core area is on the wasteland, which is the location where Shen Bailian was before.

"Get lost." Qin Wuyang glanced at Li Shaoyang, said nothing, turned around, hoisted the temporarily unconscious Zhai Tianning onto his back, looked at Li Feiyu behind him, and asked in a deep voice:
"Feiyu, what do we do next?"

As soon as he finished speaking, more than a dozen gazes focused on the burly figure, since Li Feiyu was the strongest person there.

"Look, what's that thing?"

In an instant, a sudden cry of alarm broke the silence. No one had time to grieve; all eyes were fixed on the sky, or more precisely, on the pillars of blood shooting into the heavens.

Everyone's face was filled with solemnity and unease.

"What exactly is that thing?" one person murmured, his voice filled with doubt about the eerie scene.

Li Shaoyang stood to the side, staring intently at the pillars of blood, his body trembling violently, his face as pale as paper.

"It is the Divine Ruins, where a blood sacrifice is taking place." Li Shaoyang took a deep breath and spoke with difficulty. Although his voice was weak, it sounded exceptionally clear at this moment.

"What is the Divine Ruins? What is blood sacrifice?"

The unsuspecting martial arts student immediately turned his attention to Li Shaoyang, looking at him with eager eyes, full of longing.

After all, no one here wants to die without knowing why.

"Divine Ruins." Li Feiyu stared solemnly at the pillars of blood, a chill instantly creeping from the soles of his feet to his mind, his voice becoming low and deep:
"The ruins of the divine kingdom: after the fall of the gods, the shattered fragments of the divine kingdom were scattered across the earth. If one wishes to rebuild it, without pure divine power, the first thing to do is a blood sacrifice."

"So... will we also become one of the sacrifices?" a martial arts student asked in a trembling voice. "No."

Upon hearing this, the other martial arts students immediately relaxed a little.

“But we’ll become prey. The Divine Ruins can only be opened by those favored by the gods or other powerful beings who wield divine power.” Li Feiyu took a deep breath. He knew he had to shoulder the responsibility of being the strongest. He glanced at his smart bracelet and said in a deep voice:

"Let's get our forces together; the first wave of beasts will be coming for us soon."

Li Feiyu pursed his dry lips, hesitated for a moment, his eyes flickering, and continued, "Of course, the best-case scenario is to find out where Shen Bailian is first."

Although he was very reluctant to say it, he had to admit that Shen Bailian's strength was far ahead of all the martial arts students.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to fight against twelve heroes alone in the first round of trials.

When disaster strikes, having a leader is extremely important, as it can not only unite people's hearts but also inspire them.

Especially in a world like this, the first criterion for becoming a leader is strength.

This is not about individual heroism.

Shen Bailian's existence is like a beacon of light. As long as this beacon remains lit, no martial arts student will ever completely give up hope of survival.

In other words, if even the strongest, Shen Bailian, is dead, then most of these people will fall into despair.

Tiangang Academy, in the square.

"Hey, what's going on?"

"What happened? The screen suddenly went black. This has never happened before. Could it be that the Heavenly Eye was destroyed by a ferocious beast?"

"How could all the Heavenly Eyes have been destroyed by the ferocious beasts at the same time?"

Seeing this, the second-year martial arts student stared at the black and white screen with a puzzled expression.

Generally speaking, ordinary martial arts students rarely encounter a Divine Ruins event during their entire university years, especially within the Great Xia territory.

However, some people's expressions turned serious, and they vaguely guessed what was going on. Without hesitation, they soared into the sky.

Tian Shu Building, inside the conference room.

The entire conference room was completely silent; you could hear a pin drop. Everyone was waiting, waiting for a message to come from the other end of the communication line.

"The school principal sizzled."

"Xiao Wu." Upon hearing the voice, Ji Chenghu's face lit up with joy, and he quickly asked, "How are things going? Have you gotten in yet?"

"I'm sorry, we were unable to enter and were blocked outside the Divine Ruins. This time, the restriction on strength should apply to martial artists below the Transcendent Realm."

"Alright." Ji Chenghu said in a deep voice, "Then you guys scout ahead first. Teachers will be arriving soon to cover the area covered by the Divine Ruins this time."

"it is good."

After the call ends.

boom!
Ji Chenghu's palm struck down like lightning, and the sturdy solid wood conference table instantly collapsed under his furious palm force, with wood chips flying everywhere and falling to the ground like snowflakes.

He stood up, his face horribly grim, his eyes burning with fury, and roared uncontrollably, "Who exactly was in charge of selecting the trial locations this time? I'm going to send him to a military court!"

When the teachers and deans below heard the news from the other end of the communication channel, their hearts sank.

That's the Divine Ruins. Even if a Moon-Embracing Realm expert went there, it would take half an hour of relentless bombardment to open it before the core of the Divine Ruins was controlled or destroyed.

But if that were all, Duan Wuyai and the others wouldn't be sitting here blankly.

There is a common rule in the divine kingdom: when the divine kingdom is damaged or about to break, all the creatures within the divine kingdom must share the damage.

Similarly, this rule remained within the Divine Ruins after the shattering of the divine kingdom.

The moment the outer protective barrier of the Divine Ruins was shattered was also the moment when all living beings inside perished; not a single one could escape.

After a moment, Ji Chenghu shook his head helplessly, took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and sat back down.

He knew he had just said those words in anger, and he thought he could send someone to a military court based on that?

dream!

There were no signs before the Divine Ruins unfolded, and there are currently no predictive methods in the world that can detect its existence before it unfolds.

This world has always been like this; God never explains rules to a group of mortals.

Duan Wuyai sat down with his head down, clenching his fists tightly, his eyes burning with rage, and his primal force surged instantly.

boom!
The window shattered in an instant, and before the broken pieces even hit the ground, Duan Wuyai had already disappeared from the Tian Shu Tower.

accelerate!
accelerate!!

Duan Wuyai swiftly traversed the sea of ​​clouds. After locking onto his direction, his primal force surged forth continuously, and with a deafening boom, his speed instantly surpassed 340.3 m/s.

Moreover, this speed is constantly increasing.

340.3 m/s, 470 m/s, Mach 2, Mach 3, Mach 4
Duan Wuyai's speed increased, the wind howled around him, and the clouds were torn apart by his speed, leaving a long trail like a meteor streaking across the sky.

After Duan Wuyai left, the others also got busy, trying every possible method even if there was no hope.

Just give up?

This is absolutely unacceptable to the martial artists of the Great Xia Dynasty!

"Test it out, see if we can still contact the martial arts students inside. Try different frequency bands, and report immediately if any abnormalities are found."

"Check if the technology-based weapons can be deployed there."

"."

"Eh." Zhou Yuan, the dean of the Third Academy, suddenly stood up, as if he had remembered something. Looking at everyone in the conference room, he said:
"Do we still have a few space fighters that haven't returned yet? Space fighters are usually equipped with quantum communicators. Could we use them to contact the martial arts students inside?"

"Correct!"

"Dean Zhou is right. Quickly, check the driver numbers of those who haven't returned and try to contact them immediately."

These words were like a wake-up call, and many faculty members and deans showed joy on their faces. This was undoubtedly great news.

If we can actually make contact, at least we can transmit some information about the Divine Ruins and provide some guidance.

It's better than being completely powerless.

The first buffer zone is the narrow passage between two narrow passages.

The wreckage of the crashed spaceplane was scattered haphazardly in a valley. The wings were completely broken off, and only the fuselage was relatively intact.

Inside the cockpit.

Zhou Xiaowei had fallen into a coma due to the violent impact, but the quantum communicator next to him was constantly making sounds.

"Sizzle~~"

"Xiaowei, Xiaowei, can you hear me? Please reply immediately if you hear me, please reply immediately."
