148: Ancient ruins! The three elders of Donglong Island!
An Advanced Demonic Beast of the eighth tier was already quite powerful within the Nine Serene Earth Python Clan, and its status in the clan would not be too low.
Venerable Skyfire killing it would inevitably alert the high-ranking members of the Nine Serene Earth Python Clan soon.
Although Gu Fei was not afraid, his objective was, after all, the Ancient Ruins, and getting entangled with the Nine Serene Earth Python Clan here was not rational.
“Let’s go quickly, this is the territory of the Nine Serene Earth Python Clan after all!”
Xiao Yi Xian pushed Gu Fei, because Xian Le was still sleeping soundly in Xiao Yi Xian’s arms.
She was worried that more powerful individuals appearing later would threaten Xian Le’s safety.
“Alright, let’s go!”
Gu Fei and the others did not linger. The two powerful Nine Serene Earth Python Clan members controlled by Qing Lin were taken into Qing Lin’s unique space, and Qing Lin would later absorb their energy.
The group continuously moved through the deep forest, searching for the location of the Skeleton Mountain Range.
“There are really many snake-type Demonic Beasts here.”
Cai’er, being a Seven-Colored Sky Swallowing Python, not only possessed a top-tier Bloodline among Demonic Beasts but was also a Peak existence among snake-shaped Demonic Beasts.
Even the Nine Serene Earth Python Clan, one of the three great Families of the Demonic Beast world, could not compare to her.
It was just a pity that the number of Seven-Colored Sky Swallowing Pythons was too scarce; so far, Gu Fei only knew of Cai’er as the sole Seven-Colored Sky Swallowing Python.
“A bunch of annoying poisonous snakes…” Zi Yan was very displeased with this Clan due to the Nine Serene Earth Python’s recent offense against her.
Gu Fei and his group continued to advance for a long time until a dazzling, stark white color suddenly appeared before their eyes. This stark white color, appearing in the lush green mountains, seemed extremely out of place.
“Skeleton Mountain Range, we’ve finally arrived!”
Upon seeing this mountain range, a relieved smile appeared on Gu Fei’s face; they had finally successfully found it.
Zi Yan looked at this eerie place, always feeling that it was not very auspicious, and asked Gu Fei, “Brother Gu Fei, this Opportunity you mentioned isn’t related to those annoying poisonous snakes, is it?”
“This eerie place… it’s a bit annoying.”
Qing Lin, hearing this, disagreed with Zi Yan: “I actually feel very comfortable. My eyes have become much brighter here.”
Cai’er didn’t feel anything unusual.
The snake Clan here had an aura very similar to her own people.
“What kind of Opportunity will be here?”
Xiao Yi Xian overlooked the mountain range, holding Xian Le close, worried that she would be affected by the gloomy environment.
“Don’t worry, what I’m giving you is the greatest Opportunity in the world!”
Gu Fei patted Zi Yan’s head.
“I once received news that there is an Ancient Ruins here, and this Ruins is related to your Void Ancient Dragon Clan ancestors!”
Gu Fei’s explanation was quite perfunctory and vague; after all, it was a rumor. He couldn’t possibly say he was a Transmigration who had read the original work, could he?
“But with such a large mountain range, do we have to search for it bit by bit?” Zi Yan was impatient.
“What else? Cheer up, this is an Opportunity that can make you soar!”
“Let’s start searching from here!”
Under Gu Fei’s persuasion, Zi Yan finally mustered some spirit and searched the Skeleton Mountain Range with Cai’er and Qing Lin.
As their search deepened, they gradually arrived at the central area.
“There are spatial fluctuations there!”
Zi Yan, relying on her outstanding spatial talent, was the first to discover a fragmented spatial Seal.
“The Ancient Ruins really exists.” Cai’er had also heard some secrets within her Clan, but never expected them to be true.
“Is the great Opportunity inside here?”
Zi Yan was incredibly excited at this moment, but Gu Fei knew that it was not yet time to be happy.
“Although there is a fragmented spatial Seal here, we still cannot determine the exact location of the Ancient Ruins. Fortunately, we finally have some clues, so let’s continue searching!”
Upon hearing this, everyone’s heads drooped again.
“Not yet?”
Zi Yan, helpless, could only continue searching along the fragmented Seal for the location of the Ancient Ruins.
They did not know that a large number of Demonic Beasts had already secretly gathered around them.
“It seems these outsiders are here to search for treasure… As the saying goes, the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. We’ll make our move once they find it!”
Their extensive search activities were too obvious, attracting the attention of many powerful Demonic Beasts.
Among them, there were also some from the Nine Serene Earth Python Clan.
The Demonic Beasts hid without alarming Gu Fei, but Gu Fei and the others searched for several days without any clues, even Zi Yan’s Void Ancient Dragon Clan’s spatial talent yielded no results.
Gu Fei was completely bewildered.
“It seems I can only ask the Elders of the Clan for help!”
Gu Fei was just thinking this when Zi Yan spoke first.
“Brother Gu Fei, perhaps the Elder of my Clan can discover the location of the Ancient Ruins!”
Afterward, she took out a spatial Jade Slip.
Upon crushing it, a spatial rift appeared, and a white-robed old man emerged.
The aura of this old man was very powerful, likely having reached the Advanced Half-Saint level.
“The territory of the Nine Serene Earth Python Clan?”
“Zi Yan, what happened?”
The old man frowned, asking Zi Yan.
“Elder Zhu Li, it’s like this. We are searching for an Ancient Ruins here, but we can’t find its exact location. Please help us.”
Zi Yan quickly explained the situation.
“Ancient Ruins?”
Zhu Li agreed, looking at the mountain range before him. A moment later, the surrounding space continuously trembled, as if resonating with Zhu Li.
Gu Fei felt this strange energy and was shocked by the abilities of the Void Ancient Dragon Clan.
Soon, Zhu Li’s gaze fixed on an area, and he said in a deep voice, “It’s there!”
As Zhu Li finished speaking, spatial fluctuations suddenly emanated from not far away. The scene before them became distorted like a lake, emitting a splashing sound like water being struck. As the tremors continued, the sound grew louder and louder… “Let’s retreat!”
Gu Fei knew that a huge spatial storm would occur when the spatial Seal shattered, so he reminded Xiao Yi Xian and the others. They quickly retreated with Gu Fei, creating a safe enough distance.
“This, could it be the Ancient Ruins!”
As the distorted space in the center of the Skeleton Mountain Range became visible, the eyes of the snake-human powerhouses secretly following Gu Fei immediately gleamed with light.
“Everyone, be careful, the Seal is about to shatter!”
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!”
The sound of the distorted and trembling space continued to grow louder, making it difficult even for Zhu Li, a Half-Saint cultivator, to stand there.
He continuously manipulated his Dou Qi to impact the Seal, causing its trembling to become increasingly violent.
Finally, the distorted space made a “crack, crack, crack” sound, shattering into countless pieces before everyone’s eyes, like a broken mirror.
“The Ancient Ruins has opened!”
The moment the Seal exploded, the eyes of these snake-human powerhouses turned red, and they greedily surged towards the center of the bone sea.
However, the fragments of the exploded spatial Seal suddenly paused, and a violent spatial force, like a storm, swept out in all directions.
The snake-humans who rushed forward were almost swallowed by the storm in the blink of an eye.
The violent spatial ripples, like cutting wheat, destroyed those snake-humans.
