If they really started killing people for the sake of loot, they would be the ones to die!
In that instant, everyone quieted down, and amidst the silence, a voice rang out.
“Sending three Perfect Completion Golden Core explorers to scout for us, this kind of treatment, I’m afraid we won’t find a second instance in this entire relic.”
As the voice fell, people around him scattered in all directions.
In just an instant, within three yards of his surroundings, not a single person could be seen, only he stood alone in the original spot, exceptionally conspicuous.
The chubby man looked at the dispersing crowd with a speechless expression, then the next moment, he too ran off in all directions, “Don’t mind me, I’m just unlucky, don’t pay attention to me, don’t make me scout the way.”
Cao Zhen gave that chubby man a glance and did not watch him any longer.
This chubby man seemed like a complete oddity, and Cao Zhen had no time to care about him, instead, he turned to Ling Xi and the others, saying, “They have already entered, and we haven’t heard any screams.
There should be no danger inside, let’s go in.”
Saying this, he stepped into the ruins.
Suddenly, a series of intense winds blew, carrying with them a faint stench of blood.
Cao Zhen saw nothing but ruins as far as the eye could see.
Collapsed city walls, abandoned buildings, and skeletons.
Almost all of these skeletons were human.
And under the skeletons, there were innumerable broken weapons and shattered treasures.
In his mind, an extremely tragic scene flashed—countless experts battling in this place so many years ago.
One cultivator after another died, their Divine Weapons broken, their treasures shattered, and their bodies left here.
After endless years, their corpses decayed, weathered, and dispersed, only their skeletons and broken artifacts remained.
“An ancient battlefield!”
Li Ke looked at the scene before him and exclaimed softly, “This is definitely a battlefield from ancient times.
It’s unknown what kind of great wars have taken place here, and while many of their Divine Weapons and treasures are damaged, there must be even more Divine Weapons that have been preserved.
What we need to do is find those usable Divine Weapons or treasures.”
“But how do we find them?” Ling Xi asked with confusion, pointing to the ground around them: “We can’t possibly search through everything one by one.”
“Of course, that’s unnecessary.
This should be the outermost battlefield; the strength of the people who fought here is limited, and their Divine Weapons might be destroyed after endless years.
So, if we want to get better Divine Weapons and treasures, we need to keep moving forward to find the core battlefield, and scour for Divine Weapons there!”
As Li Ke spoke, a look of regret appeared on his face, and he said sternly, “We were all wrong before; this is not a dangerous relic at all.
Now, Young Master Lian Hua and his group have entered ahead of us, they must have already delved deeper to explore the core battlefield, and that’s turned out to their advantage.”
“So, there’s no need to waste time here, we should also go and explore the core area,” Yan Yourong’s words had hardly fallen when another figure appeared at the entrance.
It was the odd chubby man from earlier.
Upon entering the ruins and seeing the skeletons before him, the scene prompted him to exclaim in shock, shouting, “An ancient battlefield!
This relic is actually an ancient battlefield!
This…”
Suddenly, his eyes landed on the few people opposite him.
His heart stirred, and he flew straight toward them.
Immediately, Yan Yourong stepped forward, blocking the path of the chubby man, looking at him coldly, “What do you want to do?”
The chubby man stopped in his tracks and raised his hands high, saying, “No, no, I mean no harm, don’t be nervous, don’t be nervous…”
As he spoke, he seemed to realize something himself and said loudly, “That’s not right, with your strengths, you wouldn’t be nervous.
The one who should be nervous is me.
Err, I have a good character, I never partake in anything immoral, I’m certainly not like Young Master Lian Hua.
I’ve come to you wanting to cooperate.”
“Cooperate?” Yan Yourong heard this and immediately rejected coldly, “We are not interested in cooperating with a stranger like you.”
They were already strong enough and naturally did not need to cooperate with others.
“No, Immortal, don’t reject me so quickly,” the chubby man urged, not running away but quickly started to sell himself, “Ladies and gentlemen, I tell you, I am very skilled in geomancy and calculation, especially for such ancient relics.
These kinds of battlefield relics generally don’t have inheritances, and the treasures inside are various treasures and Divine Weapons.
Even their Qiankun Bags are left behind, and to find these treasures and Divine Weapons and Qiankun Bags, one must go to the core battlefield.
But the core battlefield is not easy to find.
And my specialty is calculation.
I can calculate where the core battlefield is.”
Yan Yourong replied coldly, “Calculation?
Indeed, this island is not small, but if we fly with all our might, I’m afraid it won’t take long to fly over the entire island.
Why would we need to calculate where the core area is?”
The chubby man, upon hearing this, showed a clearly astonished expression, full of puzzlement, “To fly over this island, who knows how big it actually is, how to fly over it!”
