"Old Xie, didn't you say there were illusory creatures in the ruins? Why is there nothing now?" Chen Shu asked. Even though he knew the ruins were problematic, he couldn't withdraw on the spot. With his self-preservation abilities, as long as the Yinglong wasn't revived, he was confident he could escape with everyone.
"Nothing anymore?" Old Xie also leaned over, looking at the situation outside. The giant slime was suspended in the sea of clouds, surrounded by vast white clouds, with no trace of any living beings, like a dead land.
"It might be due to changes in the ruins," Fang Si stepped forward, a hint of surprise in his eyes.
Chen Shu asked, "Then how do we break through and get the rewards?"
"Don't know…" Xie Sunan shrugged and said, "The rules of these ruins have been subverted; there are no checkpoints at all."
"It's all up to self-exploration, huh…" Chen Shu's mouth twitched, and he looked blankly at the sea of clouds. His experience with ruins was quite extensive, but at this moment, he still didn't know what to do…
"Guji! Guji!" Little Huang shook its buttocks and flew forward aimlessly.
"Sky ruins…" Chen Shu looked down, wanting to see what the ground looked like. However, no matter how he peered, below was nothingness, as if the ruins had no ground, only sky.
"Can we only fly?" He touched his chin. It was somewhat similar to the geography of the [Endless Swamp]. However, Little Huang's [Gale Flight] could continue indefinitely, so there was no need to worry about a place to land.
Time gradually passed. Not only did they not see any illusory creatures, but they didn't even find a single Dragon Tamer; it seemed everyone was teleported to different locations. Just as they were flying aimlessly, a small white dragon suddenly flew out from the clouds ahead.
"Hmm?" Chen Shu's eyebrows rose. He immediately ordered the slime to give chase, finally seeing the first illusory creature. The small dragon's aura was not apparent, but its speed was monstrous, and it was immune to all control skills.
"Trying to outrun me, huh?" Chen Shu stopped Little Huang and gave the Space Rabbit a look. In an instant, the Space Rabbit disappeared, using its teleportation skill to appear directly in front of the small dragon.
"Wuwu~~" The Space Rabbit scratched its butt and directly took out a giant carrot.
Boom! Its attack speed was extremely fast, and it instantly swung the carrot out. In an instant, the small dragon was instantly killed, unable to resist at all.
Swoosh—— The Space Rabbit teleported again, returning into Little Huang's mouth. Chen Shu also saw the battle scene.
"So weak?" He muttered to himself. It turned out that besides its speed, it had no combat power at all.
"But the problem is… where are the rewards?!" He opened the panels of his four contracted spirits, but there was no change at all.
Fang Si, who was nearby, heard Chen Shu's words, but his expression was not surprised at all.
"According to the previous activation rules, the probability of obtaining rewards is 2%. How could killing just one give you anything?"
"Is that so?" Chen Shu frowned. It was indeed different from other ruins.
Just then, another small white dragon appeared before them. Chen Shu, following the same pattern, once again had the Space Rabbit use its skill to instantly kill it. Originally, according to the rules of the ruins, spatial skills were prohibited because they were too fast. But now that the rules were subverted, there were no longer any restrictions.
An hour passed. Chen Shu and the others had already reached the depths of the ruins, and the Space Rabbit had killed quite a few small white dragons. His expression gradually turned grim.
"Not a single reward?!" Chen Shu's mouth twitched. Did the owner of these ruins forget to include the rewards when they didn't complete the rules…
Boom! The Space Rabbit yawned and with another swing, the illusory creature was scattered into nothingness. Just as it thought it had gained nothing and was about to return, the surrounding clouds churned violently.
"Hmm?" Chen Shu was slightly startled, a hint of surprise in his eyes.
Roar! As the clouds churned, a ten-meter white flying dragon appeared, its hollow eyes gazing at the Space Rabbit.
"Finally, some change!" Chen Shu raised his eyebrows and quickly told the Space Rabbit to attack. He thought it was an elite monster, but the Space Rabbit directly struck it with a blow, successfully killing it instantly…
"Silver-ranked?" Chen Shu sensed the strength of the white flying dragon and was surprised it was so weak. Just as he was about to open the contracted spirit panel with no expectations, a look of joy appeared in his eyes. The level 3 Gale Flight had indeed leveled up! In an instant, Little Huang's flying speed increased significantly.
"Finally, I see a reward!" Chen Shu breathed a sigh of relief. If there was no incentive, he really wouldn't want to explore anymore.
"There's a reward?" Fang Si saw Chen Shu's expression and had a guess in his heart.
"Yes, it improved my flying skill." Chen Shu nodded and said, "How about we take turns killing them later?" It was only him who was improving; the other five were like spectators.
Just then, Xu Xingxing's expression changed slightly, and he looked at the mutated thunderbird beside him.
Caw! Its body was once again surrounded by lightning, and there was a hint of madness in its eyes. Chen Shu asked, "Little Xing, what's wrong with your bird? Is it acting up again?"
"I don't know." Xu Xingxing's brows furrowed, and he said, "It seems to want to go out…"
"Hmm?" Chen Shu opened Little Huang's mouth wide.
Swoosh—— In an instant, the mutated thunderbird flapped its wings and rushed out of Little Huang's mouth. Its body turned into a blue stream of light, directly charging into the depths of the ruins, disappearing without a trace…
"No! I haven't even gotten on the bus yet!" Xu Xingxing's mouth twitched, and he was instantly stunned on the spot. It seemed he had been abandoned by his contracted spirit…
"…" Chen Shu and the others looked on sympathetically, seeing a contracted spirit abandon its master for the first time. But after a while, the mutated thunderbird flew back, finally remembering what it had forgotten…
Xu Xingxing breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the thunderbird's back, saying, "Do you guys want to come up?" Before his words could even be fully spoken, the mutated thunderbird screeched, turned into a stream of light, and flew directly towards the deepest part of the ruins…
"What the hell! It's out of control?!" Little Xing, prostrate among the thunderbird's feathers, kept issuing commands to the mutated thunderbird. However, the thunderbird did not stop, as if it had received a summons, and a phantom gradually appeared in its dazzling eyes. It was a golden dragon with wings on its back…
