757: 226 757: 226 “Such ancient ruins!”
“Go, we must visit these ruins!”
“Who knows how many years it takes for a Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth to appear, and such ruins only emerge after several of these eras.
Once such ruins appear, they cannot be missed!”
“Quick, notify all the experts within the sect.”
“For this, we must come out in full force!”
“Retain a certain level of strength, then send out the experts!”
For a time, all the major Immortal Sects and powers began to discuss how to venture to the ruins, and even their previous plans were interrupted.
Within the Hundred Peaks Sect, one by one, the Golden Core Stage experts and Peak Masters gathered in the Five-Element Pill Ground.
“Sect Leader, peerless relics have appeared in the world.”
“Sect Leader, what should we do this time?
Who should we send?”
“Sect Leader…”
Cao Zhen, faced with the people from the Hundred Peaks Sect coming to him, felt a great headache, having little interest in what ruins or not.
What about the ruins?
How peerless can the peerless relics be?
He had China Cloud.
What kind of ruins could compare to the China Cloud?
The first connection he had with the China Cloud was to someone like Zhang Daoling, a Daluo Golden Immortal.
Could these ruins have relics from a Daluo Golden Immortal?
In this world, he had not found any records of Daluo Golden Immortals.
So, as long as he continued to practice alchemy and then broke through to the Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection, he would be considered fully equipped and ready for battle.
It would be a good idea to come out of seclusion after that.
Now, to compete for the ruins?
His strength was high now, yet who knew how many people were secretly scheming against him.
Better to remain within the Hundred Peaks Sect, refine the pills in peace and security, and then break through.
After thinking it over, Cao Zhen said to the people, “I also saw that phenomenon, but the world is too chaotic right now.
Those ruins, who knows how many will vie for them.
Let’s not even mention whether we can compete for them; if too many of us leave, what will become of our Hundred Peaks Sect?
The Sun and Moon Demon Sect, the Red Refinery Demonic Sect, and the three major Immortal Sects of the Great Lai Dynasty, even if behind them truly lie remnants of the former dynasty, what if they attack us once we leave the Hundred Peaks Sect?”
“This…”
The people around were suddenly at a loss for words.
After a while, someone finally spoke up in a low voice, “But, Sect Leader, haven’t you already redeployed the mountain-guarding formation?
Moreover, such ancient ruins will tempt all the major powers, the Sun and Moon Demon Sect and the Red Refinery Demonic Sect they won’t likely miss out either.”
“Yes, such ruins might only appear once every several tens of thousands of years, or even every hundred thousand years.
The fact that we have encountered them is already an enormous opportunity that we cannot overlook.”
“Our Hundred Peaks Sect, with so many peak Golden Core Stage experts, stands a great chance of seizing the opportunity.
If we were to seize it, it could even allow our faction to stand out from the top ten Immortal Sects and leave them far behind!”
The surrounding people spoke up one after another.
After all, Cao Zhen was the Sect Leader of the Hundred Peaks Sect and also a reincarnated being of great ability, so they could only subtly suggest their thoughts.
Having said that, Cao Zhen thought of the Sun and Moon Demon Sect and felt inspired to connect with the Eclipse Demon.
With such a relic appearing, he wondered how the Sun and Moon Demon Sect would react.
Soon in his vision, the figure of the Eclipse Demon appeared.
The Eclipse Demon was still in seclusion; however, a sect’s chart materialized in front of him, followed by some text that appeared in the view of the Eclipse Demon.
“Relic appeared, rush to the site of the relic, this relic must be ours, Sun and Moon Demon Sect.”
Seeing this text, the Eclipse Demon’s brows immediately furrowed.
“Damn it, that Sun Moon Demon, he never sought me out before, and now that he’s going to the ruins, he’s remembered me.
He wants the relics, and I want them too!
Unfortunately, Overbearing Sky Demonic Master has not sought me out otherwise, with his assistance, and if I were to obtain the relics afterward…
I must go to the ruins, but Sun Moon Demon inviting me is most likely to use me as cannon fodder.
Yet I can’t not go.
Fortunately, I got quite a few good things in the ruins previously, and those, the Sun and Moon Demon Sect are not aware of.
If there’s a chance, I might even get that Sun Moon Demon killed and take his place as the Sun Moon Demon!”
Cao Zhen, listening to Eclipse Demon’s monologue, was suddenly struck with an idea; this meant the current Sect Leader of the Sun and Moon Demon Sect was named Sun Moon Demon, and the Sect Leader of the Sun and Moon Demon Sect, was going to the ruins.
If he went, what would happen if he directly eliminated the Sect Leader of the Sun and Moon Demon Sect?
The Sun and Moon Demon Sect would certainly choose a new Sect Leader, so what if, he killed all the experts of the Sun and Moon Demon Sect, leaving only Eclipse Demon behind?
Wouldn’t Eclipse Demon become the new Sect Leader of the Sun and Moon Demon Sect?
If he became the Sect Leader, wouldn’t all the actions of the Sun and Moon Demon Sect and even the remnants of the former dynasty be under his own watch?
This matter seemed worth pursuing.
With Eclipse Demon present, if the people of the Sun and Moon Demon Sect wanted to do anything or be at any location, he would know, killing Sun Moon Demon in the relics wouldn’t be difficult.
However, if the ruins were to open again after some time, after his breakthrough to the Ten Different Phenomena of the Golden Elixir Great Perfection, it would be better.
Going now seemed a bit risky.
Cao Zhen was contemplating when Li Ke, with little regard for pleasantries, directly said, “We cannot always avoid exploring any ruins because of potential dangers that may or may not be there.
