Chapter 519: Sunlight Saint King Scene

"Ancient ruins? Can you determine the origin of those ruins?"

Chu Tai narrowed his eyes slightly. When talking about the Avenue of the Saint King now, the human race is respected. However, the Saint Kings in the ancient times were not necessarily human.

For example, the sage king Xi, who left behind the River Map and Luo Shu, was born into a clan of gods. Although some people within the human race have always believed that Xi had been reincarnated as a human before becoming a sage king, the arguments within the immortal way are still dominated by the fact that he was from a clan of gods.

Secondly, King Yu, the owner of the original version of the River Map in Chu Tai's hand, was also a half-human, half-god being.

And these are still considered good among the Saint Kings. Before Saint King Xi, the number of Saint Kings who were not of human origin far exceeded that of human Saint Kings.

Therefore, in the ancient times, that is, the era when many holy kings were still active in the world, the relics and treasures left over to this day are also divided into levels.

The first class are naturally the relics left behind by the human race during the period of the Holy King. The things preserved in them not only have a power that has not faded after a long time, but also have the bonus of the current remaining Holy King Avenue.

The second category is the relics left behind by the human race during the period of the Holy King of alien relatives.

The third category is the relics left behind by non-human races during the period of the alien saint kings.

Further down are the relics left behind by non-human races during the period of the human Saint King.

"According to Lu Nian's mother's guess, this should be a cave left behind by a non-human cultivator during the Saint King Jing period."

Shang Zhu's answer made Chu Tai frown slightly. He thought carefully before finding some records about Saint King Jing.

This holy king is somewhat similar to King Yu, and is of half-human, half-god bloodline.

If we trace back his bloodline, we can probably find a connection with the sage Wang Xizhi.

Legend has it that the sage Wang Xi gave birth to a son named Xianniao, who is the spirit of fire and the god of the sun.

According to the internal records of the human race, Xianniao gave birth to a son named Chengli, Chengli gave birth to a son named Houzhao, who founded a major branch of the human race.

However, in the records circulating within the immortal world, there is a saying that the salty bird gave birth to an alien species, and even the identity of the salty bird is not simply a spirit of fire or a god of the sun, its true form is a divine phoenix of the sun.

Saint King Jing is the inheritor of another lineage of Xianniao, but his paternal line seems to have intermarried with Houzhao's lineage, so this Saint King has a certain proportion of human blood in his body.

In the records circulated within the human race, Saint King Jing is mostly regarded as a Saint King of the Houzhao lineage, or his records are confused with those of several other Saint Kings who lived in a similar time period and had similar achievements.

But in fact, although Saint King Jing, as a saint king whose non-human bloodline is higher than that of the human race, is close to the human race, under his rule, the paths and status that non-human cultivators can take have been greatly improved.

"So it's the third rank?"

Chu Tai muttered to himself that the third-class ancient ruins were already worth exploring.

After all, most of the treasures in this kind of ruins bear traces of the interweaving of inhuman and human paths. As long as they can withstand the impact of the Saint King's Avenue cutting off the inhuman paths, they basically have unique mysteries that current magic weapons do not have.

In comparison, although the fourth-class ruins may also contain some more powerful and mysterious treasures, those things will inevitably be more excluded by the Saint King Avenue and are not suitable for use in the Central Plains at all.

After figuring this out, Chu Tai asked again, "Can you confirm the current situation of the ruins?"

"It's because I'm not sure that I'm in a hurry to find you to confirm your identity. Otherwise, I can just cast a spell to contact your original body in the cave." Shang Zhu's answer made Chu Tai hesitate. He was silent for a moment and said, "I'll go take a look first."

After saying that, he turned into a wisp of green smoke and flew in the direction Shang Zhu pointed.

However, Chu Tai's action was still a little late. When he arrived, Lu Qing had already entered the ruins. The magical restrictions inside also began to change, and some fluctuations in vital energy spread outward, which was basically impossible to suppress.

However, through this subtle fluctuation of vital energy, Chu Tai also noticed some traces within the ruins.

"The King of Chi Jing, your achievements will be remembered for thousands of years. He established the red sun in the sky and offered sacrifices to me..."

The faint sounds echoing around made Chu Tai's eyes light up slightly.

'It turned out to be a relic left by a foreign wizard who was worshipping Saint King Jing.'

Chu Tai, who discovered this, immediately hid in it. A thin mist rose up, obscuring his breath and figure. He avoided some remaining protective measures in the ruins and quickly caught up with Lu Qing who entered first.

Lu Qing was in a rather miserable state at this moment, with traces of burns all over his body, and three-colored flames flowing on the vermilion whisk in his hand.

Of course, the three colors here are not complementary to each other, but rather they deplete each other. It is obvious that Lu Qing had encountered some danger before, and he introduced the flames on his body or encountered into the whisk, and used the fire energy contained in it to suppress it.

However, Lu Qing obviously did not expect that the flames in the ruins had a very strong solar attribute, which made the Bing and Ding fire energies in his Hongfu incompatible, resulting in a situation where he was neither good nor bad.

What's more troublesome is that with the opening of the ruins, many sacrificial images and texts around them also lit up one after another, and the shadows of divine birds gradually emerged and gradually began to move towards Lu Qing.

'It seems that the ancient records of the Holy King Jing's preference for birds as symbols are not groundless. Even the later saying that some Holy Kings used birds as officials may have originated from this.'

Chu Tai looked at the phantoms of the divine birds and could naturally see that they were not simply magic, but the embodiment of some kind of spirit, symbol, or concept.

According to the destruction of the inhuman roads caused by the Avenue of the Holy King, these phantoms of the divine birds can be preserved, and the corresponding magical powers can still function normally. It is obvious that they have a certain connection with the development of the human race.

Compared with Chu Tai's exploration, Lu Qing, who was facing these phantoms, seemed very nervous.

With some pain in his heart, he took out a feather fan from his sleeve. There were three colored feathers on it, and each feather was adorned with three fire seeds. He waved it fiercely at the phantom in the air.

The nine fire seeds quickly ignited the three feathers, which turned into three phantoms of divine birds that flew out.

Lu Qing himself took the opportunity to run deeper into the ruins.

After Chu Tai recorded the pictures and texts on the wall, he went downstairs and saw many broken utensils scattered on the ground.

After just one look, Chu Tai knew that the original materials of these things were first-rate. It was a pity that the principles contained in them belonged to inhuman ways, and they were directly destroyed when several saint kings cut off the inhuman ways.

Not only were the tools destroyed, but the spirituality and vitality of the materials used to make them were also wiped out. All that was left here was some relatively solid scrap iron.

Chu Tai simply noted down the pattern, then continued to move forward following Lu Qing's breath, gradually approaching the depths of the ruins. Slowly, some instruments with faint spiritual light appeared in front of him.
