149: Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit, Zi Yan is about to soar into the sky

By the time they realized something was wrong, it was too late to retreat.

Gu Fei naturally wouldn't care about the lives of these people; he had already discovered the existence of these Demonic Beasts, but simply hadn't paid them any mind.

When the spatial storm ended, a colossal object slowly appeared before everyone.

What appeared before everyone was a magnificent palace, its size astounding Xiao Yi Xian and Caier.

The new holy city of the Snake-People Tribe seemed tiny in front of this palace, and compared to the surrounding mountains, the palace was not inferior in the slightest.

The only thing that could rival this palace was the great hall of the Ancient Clan.

The entire palace was crimson, looking from afar like flames burning on bones, with lingering Seal Qi permeating its surroundings, highlighting the palace's majesty.

"Is this an Ancient Ruins?"

Xiao Yi Xian was incredibly shocked.

"As expected of a palace left behind by a Dou Sheng, just the palace itself is enough to astonish people." Caier couldn't help but exclaim, her heart filled with a renewed hope for the Dou Sheng.

"Alright, the Ancient Ruins has opened. The real good stuff is inside the palace."

"Let's go in!"

After Gu Fei finished speaking, he made a gesture of invitation to Zhu Li, who understood and was the first to enter the palace.

Zhu Li was a Half-Saint cultivation and proficient in spatial power, so having him enter the palace first to scout for dangers was ideal.

The Demonic Beasts that had been lurking around, coveting the Ancient Ruins, were almost annihilated in the storm.

For a short time, there was no need to worry about others coming to snatch the treasures.

Zhu Li was the first to enter the palace, and with Gu Fei, the Transmigration, reminding him, he didn't encounter any dangers. The mysteries beneath the fire path didn't affect their progress at all.

"Let's go get the first good thing!"

Arriving below the fire path, Gu Fei walked ahead of Zhu Li, moving through the Ancient Ruins.

Zhu Li was a bit surprised by this, observing Gu Fei as if he had been here before.

But he didn't say anything, guarding Zi Yan and quickly following.

Caier and Qing Lin protected Xiao Yi Xian and Xian Le, preventing any accidents from befalling them.

"Is that... a Puppet?"

Soon, everyone arrived before a large door, and in front of the door was a group of silver Puppets.

"They are Peak Dou Zong Puppets; are they gatekeepers?"

Qing Lin couldn't help but exclaim.

"Is this door the real entrance to the Ancient Ruins?" Zi Yan noticed something amiss.

"These Puppets are Earth Demon Puppets. Although they are only Peak Dou Zong, they can unleash the power of a Dou Zun by relying on a special formation!"

No sooner had Gu Fei spoken than the surfaces of ten Earth Demon Puppets shimmered with silver light. As if sensing danger, they immediately began to converge, intending to form a formation.

"Shatter for me!"

Gu Fei directly slapped out, and three or four Earth Demon Puppets were immediately caved in and shattered, losing their mobility.

He dealt with the remaining Earth Demon Puppets in a few more moves.

Once all the Earth Demon Puppets were dealt with, the tightly shut stone door suddenly emitted creaking mechanical sounds, and then the massive stone door slowly opened, revealing a gap wide enough for passage.

"Keep going!"

Gu Fei once again led the way into the gap in the door. Inside the gap was still a solemn great hall.

However, this was not Gu Fei's destination. Gu Fei scanned his surroundings, confirmed his direction, and then shot out again.

"Big Brother Gu Fei, where are we going?" Qing Lin asked Gu Fei doubtfully.

"To find treasures, of course."

Gu Fei smiled mysteriously, urging everyone to speed up.

Soon, they arrived before another massive stone door.

However, there were no guards in front of this stone door. Gu Fei scanned the area and then stepped forward to push the stone door open.

As the stone door slowly opened, everyone was surprised to find a vast forest behind it.

"I smell a medicinal fragrance! It's very strong, definitely a top-tier Heaven And Earth Treasure!"

Zi Yan suddenly exclaimed. Her sense of smell for Heaven And Earth Treasure was extremely keen.

"Your nose is quite sensitive. That's our destination."

Gu Fei smiled slightly, once again leading everyone to rush through the forest.

They had originally expected to encounter some dangers in the Ancient Ruins, but following Gu Fei all the way, it had been a smooth journey.

Soon, a lake appeared before everyone. The lake was not large, only about ten zhang wide, and its surface was incredibly clear, yet one could not see its bottom.

In the middle of the lake was a floating piece of land, like a small island, and on the island was a uniquely shaped small tree.

The small tree was entirely silvery-gray, its branches intertwined like vines, forming a very strange arc. If viewed from a distance, one would feel that this small tree resembled a pregnant woman, and the protruding part of the small tree was the pregnant woman's belly.

At this moment, a faint golden light shimmered from that position.

"That is our goal, the Soul Infant Fruit!" Gu Fei pointed to the shimmering golden light.

"It looks delicious, I'll go pick it!"

Zi Yan said, and was about to retrieve the Soul Infant Fruit, but as soon as she rushed over the lake, the calm surface suddenly churned with huge waves.

A massive figure splashed out of the water, opening its blood-red mouth and biting towards Zi Yan.

"You beast!"

Zhu Li roared, and a terrifying aura pressed down. The figure attacking Zi Yan suddenly trembled, stopped its offensive, and fell back into the water, looking at Zhu Li like a child who had made a mistake.

The Demonic Beast that suddenly appeared in the lake was a Heaven-Connecting Flood Dragon. It was powerful due to possessing the Ancient Dragon Bloodline, but in front of the true Ancient Dragon Clan, it could only tremble.

"Hmph!"

Zi Yan snorted coldly, walked to the Soul Infant Ancient Tree, and retrieved the Soul Infant Fruit.

Just then, Zi Yan suddenly felt a little disoriented. Zhu Li, fearing Zi Yan was in danger, quickly stepped forward.

"What's wrong, Young Miss?" Zhu Li asked anxiously.

"I feel something calling me."

Zi Yan finished speaking, looking deeper into the Ancient Forest.

"That is the great Opportunity I want to give you. Get ready to go!"

Gu Fei stepped forward at this moment.

"Isn't the Soul Infant Fruit the greatest Opportunity?"

Caier was a bit shocked. The Soul Infant Fruit was already a legendary item. What could an even greater Opportunity be? Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin exchanged glances, equally unable to imagine.

Seeing that Zi Yan was unharmed, Zhu Li no longer worried. Following Gu Fei and Zi Yan's sensing, they continued to move through the Ancient Forest.

Everyone arrived before a plain. The plain looked ordinary, but Zi Yan landed on the ground, took a few steps, and extended her hand. A golden light appeared without warning before everyone, then formed a protective shield.

"Golden light shield... Zi Yan, drop a drop of your essence Blood on it."

Zhu Li seemed to have thought of something, and the expression on his old face unconsciously turned to shock.

Upon hearing this, Zi Yan bit her finger, and a drop of golden Blood dripped onto the golden light shield.

A crack appeared on the golden light shield, and the crack slowly opened.

"Let's go in!"

Zi Yan was the first to enter the golden light shield, with Gu Fei and the others following closely behind.

Inside the golden light shield was a desolate plain. On this plain, there was an incomparably massive stone altar. A terrifying pressure emanated from the altar, causing those with weaker strength, like Xiao Yi Xian, to feel their Dou Qi stagnate somewhat.
