People fight and become emperors in advance

Chapter 281 Get Out

Time flies, the years are like a shuttle.

In the blink of an eye, a full month had passed since Chen Xiao and the others entered the ruins.

Amidst the eager anticipation of countless people, the ruins located in the Sand Shadow Mountains finally reappeared, and the spatial seal was completely dispelled.

Although the shattered spatial seal fragments caused hundreds of anxious individuals to perish on the spot, such deaths and injuries could not dampen the enthusiasm of the remaining powerful individuals for exploration.

Therefore, after confirming that there was no more danger as the spatial seal dissipated, large numbers of powerful individuals flocked in.

The number of people entering was no less than the number entering last time!
...

Qifeng Mountain.

The atmosphere here is not much different from the fiery atmosphere of the Sand Shadow Mountains.

Even from a distance, one can see a huge, cold white barrier, like an inverted porcelain bowl, covering the entire Qifeng Mountain, completely impenetrable.

Above the barrier, thousands of feet away, in the void, black mist stretched like clouds, covering half the sky. One could vaguely see many figures dressed in black robes moving about within it, and from time to time, several scarlet eyes shot out from within.

Upon receiving news that the ruins in the Sand Shadow Mountains had been fully opened, the black mist surged, and then more than ten figures stepped out.

"The Five Heavenly Venerables!"

"Six Heavenly Venerables!"

"Hehehe, this Purple Cloud Pavilion really is a turtle shell. However, the farce ends here!"

The leader of the Five Heavenly Venerables let out a sinister laugh, waved his sleeve, and led a group of powerful figures to the outside of the barrier of Qifeng Mountain.

Inside the grand formation, on the plaza below the Thunder Tower.

The Iron Sword Venerable, who was taking a nap, sensed something, slowly opened his eyes, and looked up at the group of Soul Hall experts who had come outside again and again, seemingly ready to make a move.

With a long sigh, the Iron Sword Venerable glanced at the black-robed monsters with disdain, turned to the side, and continued to doze off in a different direction.

Not to mention the Iron Sword Venerable, even the inner and outer disciples and elders showed no surprise, let alone fear, when the Soul Palace came to their door.

The main reason for this is that during this period, the Fifth and Sixth Heavenly Venerables have led their people to attack more than ten times.

I still remember that at the beginning, all the elders and disciples were on high alert.

However, after Little Fairy Doctor appeared with Venerable Heavenly Fire and others, she ignored the Soul Palace experts who were bombarding the outside world, simply activated the protective formation of the pavilion, and then watched coldly from the sidelines.

The Fifth and Sixth Heavenly Venerables of the Soul Palace were actually quite powerful; one was a Second-Rank Dou Zun, and the other was a Third-Rank Dou Zun.

Unfortunately, with this level of skill, it's absolutely impossible to break through the grand formation that Chen Xiao painstakingly set up. Moreover, this grand formation has been reinforced by Elder Qingshan.

Without the appearance of the Battle Saint, the city is truly impregnable!

And so, the Soul Palace's first attack ended with nothing more than a few harsh words before hastily coming to a halt.

Since then, the Fifth and Sixth Heavenly Venerables have been like clocking in for work, leading their subordinates to bombard the area every day, at least once, and sometimes three or four times.

Over time, the people of Zixiao Pavilion had become accustomed to this swarm of annoying flies, which is why they were so indifferent to seeing them come to their door again.

Anyway, Little Fairy Doctor has already given the order to stay indoors, and since a fight can't break out, we can only go about our business as usual...

Inside the main hall of Zixiao Pavilion.

Although the Purple Cloud Pavilion outwardly adopts a cold and abusive attitude towards the Soul Palace experts outside, its higher-ups have been paying close attention.

"These rats in the sewers are such a nuisance!"

In the guest seat, Hei Qing began to complain with a hint of annoyance.

Hei Qing returned on the very first day of the Soul Palace's attack.

Not only Hei Qing, but also a familiar Dou Zun powerhouse, the guest elder of the Cao family, Venerable Ku Yi, was present in the guest seats at this time.

And a Dou Zun elder from the Dan Tower.

They all have one thing in common: the forces behind them are closely related to Chen Xiao, which is why they came to help after Zixiao Pavilion was targeted by the Soul Palace.

"Brother Hei Qing, don't worry, they won't be able to keep this up for long," Little Fairy Doctor said with a smile, gently reassuring him.

The Five Heavenly Venerables and the Six Heavenly Venerables alone pose no threat whatsoever.

These two probably don't know that the protective array not only has defensive functions, but also contains the full power of a Dou Sheng expert, which can be used at any time.

Moreover, even without the power of the great formation, Zixiao Pavilion could repel these two people, or even capture them!
It should be noted that Venerable Tianhuo's strength has also reached the peak of the second-stage Dou Zun.

Although Little Fairy Doctor has not yet reached the Ninth Rank, with her Calamity Poison Body and extremely high configuration, her strength is not to be underestimated, not to mention the many Dou Zun level puppets and Iron Sword Venerable and others.

Her reason for avoiding battle was simply to buy time.

If we really kill all the Soul Hall experts outside, then the next ones to come will definitely be even more terrifying experts, perhaps even half-saints, or even true fighting saints!

At that point, if Zixiao Pavilion wants to deal with it, it will have no choice but to use all its trump cards.

This is not the outcome Little Fairy Doctor wanted.

Now that Chen Xiao is gone, she has chosen to prioritize stability, and that is the fundamental reason.

As they were talking, suddenly, Little Fairy Doctor sensed something and took out a communication jade slip from her storage ring.

Although the disciples and elders of Zixiao Pavilion have ostensibly withdrawn, many are still mingling in the Shaying Mountains, so it's impossible for them to be completely unconcerned.

"The ruins are fully open!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the expressions of everyone in the hall changed slightly.

With the ruins fully opened, the stalemate between Zixiao Pavilion and Soul Palace may also be broken.

After all, it was no secret that Chen Xiao led people into the ruins.

If the Fifth and Sixth Heavenly Venerables cannot defeat the Purple Cloud Pavilion, they may change their strategy and set their sights on Chen Xiao, who is in the ruins. In that case, the Purple Cloud Pavilion will have to take action and will no longer be able to simply defend itself.

As if on cue, just as everyone had sorted out their thoughts, they all sensed that the Fifth and Sixth Heavenly Venerables had returned!

"Jie Jie Jie!"

"Little Fairy Doctor, you should be in charge of the Purple Cloud Pavilion now. Hand over the Soul of the Prison and surrender. This is the final ultimatum. Otherwise, once I, the Heavenly Venerable, capture Chen Xiao, everyone in the Purple Cloud Pavilion will find that death is actually a luxury!"

The gloomy voice of the Five Heavenly Venerables echoed throughout the entire Qifeng Mountain.

Sure enough, he and Little Fairy Doctor and the others had the same idea.

However, despite his threats, Little Fairy Doctor and the others in the hall ignored him and paid him no attention, continuing their familiar cold violence.

"These two are just clowns, no need to worry about them. If the Pavilion Master really makes a move, they probably won't even be able to escape. As for Tianmingzi in the Sand Shadow Mountains, although that old fellow is not under the command of these two, he is still a threat if he enters the ruins," said Venerable Tianhuo.

Even a half-saint is still a saint. Once you have the word "saint" on your head, it becomes an insurmountable barrier for nine out of ten Dou Zun powerhouses.

Even a peak-level Nine-Turn Dou Zun cannot withstand a Half-Saint expert for long.

Those who can threaten a half-saint with the strength of a Dou Zun are extremely rare on the entire continent.

Although Venerable Tianhuo and the others had great confidence in Chen Xiao, when Chen Xiao entered the ruins, he was only an eight-star Dou Zun, which was far inferior to the half-saint level.

Little Fairy Doctor nodded slightly, "Then we'll deal with whatever comes our way!"

Cao Ying, who rarely spoke up, also offered a suggestion: "I can send a message to the teacher and cause trouble for the Tianming Sect. The Tianming Sect has already sided with the Soul Palace, so it is only right to settle accounts with them. However, the Tianming Sect still has the old demon Tianming in charge, so it is uncertain whether we can lure Tianmingzi back."

Elder Danta, who was sitting not far away, also nodded in agreement.

Little Fairy Doctor pondered for a moment and said, "Let's take a two-pronged approach. Even without Tianmingzi, the Soul Palace might bring out other half-saint powerhouses. If that's the case, then we must also prepare a response." As she spoke, Little Fairy Doctor turned to look at Hei Qing.

However, just as she was about to ask Elder Qingshan to protect her secretly, a rather familiar female voice suddenly rang out in the hall.

"Little Fairy Doctor, leave Chen Xiao to me!"

The sudden sound startled everyone present.

Even Hai Bodong, who was relatively weaker, was at the Dou Zong level, and Tianhuo Venerable had already reached the peak of the second-stage Dou Zun.

Even so, not a single one of those powerful individuals noticed her arrival beforehand!
Outside the formation.

After making threats for a long time without receiving a single response, the Fifth and Sixth Heavenly Venerables became increasingly annoyed.

"If you don't eat the toast, you will be punished with alcohol!"

"I, the Celestial Venerable, refuse to believe that you will still be so at ease in a few days!"

After uttering a few harsh words, the two men, unusually, refrained from making any futile attacks and left with their troops.

...

Inside the ruins.

Compared to the previous batch of people who came in, the strong individuals who flocked in today are truly fortunate.

Although the entire ruins had been thoroughly searched and left completely empty, without a trace of soup, those who entered today did not encounter any danger other than human cultivators.

The main hall where the Devouring Serpent Saint passed away is the center of the entire ruins. Its magnificent appearance is also extremely eye-catching. It is like the center of a vortex, constantly attracting countless powerful people.

Among them was Tian Mingzi.

Not long ago, Liu Cang, the deputy sect master of the Tianming Sect, along with two elders at the Dou Zun level, led a group into the ruins.

Knowing that only those below the Nine-Star Dou Zun level could enter the ruins at that time, the Tianming Sect originally thought that Liu Cang would return with a full load.

Who would have thought that the result would be a complete annihilation!
What's even stranger is that the three Dou Zun, including Liu Cang, died earlier than the other disciples!

Filled with doubt and confusion, Tianmingzi decided to come and find out the truth.

The simultaneous fall of three Dou Zun, including a vice sect master, is a devastating blow even to the Tianming Sect. How can they be satisfied without thoroughly investigating the matter?

Therefore, Tianmingzi entered the ruins the moment they were fully opened.

Subsequently, he used some underhanded methods to learn the last location of Liu Cang and the other two from some people who had entered the area beforehand.

What's quite a coincidence is that it's very close to the location where he was teleported!
"More than ten Dou Zun went up, but only four or five came out, and they all remained silent. What exactly happened in this second-level space...?"

Upon arriving at the first floor of the main hall, Tianmingzi gazed at the top of the stone pillar and muttered to himself.

He couldn't figure it out, so Tianmingzi shook his head slightly and didn't look at the hall again.

This place has already been completely looted.

He took a step and arrived at the top of the stone pillar.

With his exceptional skills and daring, Tianmingzi went straight to the second level without much hesitation.

Soon, the view of the second floor came into his view.

An enormous altar, and an ancient celestial serpent statue over a thousand feet tall.

A series of fierce auras locked onto him, and Tianmingzi focused his gaze.

All he could see were nine puppets of varying degrees of damage and five Dou Zun powerhouses with blank expressions, all staring at him, as if they would launch an attack the moment he made the slightest move!

Suddenly, a crimson color on one of the giant snake heads of the ancient celestial serpent statue caught Tian Mingzi's attention, and he immediately looked towards it.

It was a young girl!
No, two!

One of them, dressed in a crimson dress, exuded an aura only at the Dou Zong level. She stood obediently behind the other person, looking aggrieved.

Strangely, despite Tianmingzi's strength, he didn't immediately notice when he arrived in this space!

He shifted his gaze slightly, looking at the stunningly beautiful woman in a purple dress standing in front of the girl.

With just one glance, even someone as powerful as Tian Mingzi's body trembled involuntarily.

In his perception, the place where the woman stood was empty!

At this moment, his perception and vision seemed to contradict each other.

As a semi-saint level expert, it's impossible for him to have any flaws. There's only one explanation for this.

That means this woman is very strong!

That's unbelievably strong!
He is countless times stronger than the Heavenly Demon!
In her presence, Tianmingzi was like a frog in a well looking at the moon in the sky!
Instantly imagining the cause of death of Liu Cang and the others, Tian Mingzi dared not inquire about the slightest detail, clasped his hands together, and bowed deeply.

"Tianmingzi greets Senior!"

The woman on the snake's head glanced at him, then calmly looked away.

After waiting for a long time without receiving a reply, Tian Mingzi's heart was in his throat.

"Aren't you leaving yet? Do you want me to turn you into a puppet?"

The tone, tinged with disdain, sounded like heavenly music to Tianmingzi.

Survived!

"Thank you, senior. I'll be going now!"

After thanking him, without any hesitation, Tianmingzi retreated at the fastest speed he had ever seen.

After flying around aimlessly for a long time, he still couldn't find a way out. He was like a headless fly, running around aimlessly in the altar space.

Just then, a message from the Soul Palace's Five Heavenly Venerables came through the communication jade slip in his storage ring. Upon sensing it, Tianmingzi was so angry that he almost cursed. He angrily replied with a single word, and the next moment, he felt an irresistible force strike him, throwing him out of the altar space.

After casually dismissing Tian Mingzi, the woman turned her gaze to the entrance to the third level.

Immediately, she saw something and couldn't help but slightly purse her lips.

...

outside world.

The Fifth and Sixth Heavenly Venerables acted swiftly, and after leaving Qifeng Mountain, they began to contact Tianmingzi.

Chen Xiao's battle record is verifiable. Ordinary Dou Zun level experts would definitely be unable to deal with him. To suppress and capture him, it would require the intervention of a half-saint level expert.

As luck would have it, Tianmingzi has also come this time!
Therefore, the two decided to simply ask Tian Mingzi for help. After all, since Tian Mingzi and the Soul Palace were in the same boat, he would most likely give them this favor.

After all, a semi-saint level expert could easily defeat an eight-star Dou Zun.

Beside the Fifth Heavenly Venerable, the Sixth Heavenly Venerable, seeing the strange expression on the other party's face after contacting Tianmingzi, felt a surge of curiosity.

"Fifth Brother, what did Tianmingzi say?"

The Five Heavenly Venerables' faces were grim, and their gloomy voices were filled with barely suppressed rage.

"He told us to get out!"
