217: The discovery of divine relics

“This guy!”

Seeing Saint Ming act so recklessly, Wu Luo and the others' expressions changed.

“Don’t give him a chance to breathe! His spatial teleportation power is disappearing. He’s absorbing blood sacrifices to resist the side effects on his body!”

A Hui spoke, having come from the Netherworld, he clearly understood Saint Ming’s condition!

Saying that, he rose and pounced towards Saint Ming.

Everyone heard this and realized that Saint Ming's power was gradually dissipating. Now, he could only fall to the cultivation of a Four-step Perfection Quasi-God.

Seeing this, the three of Wu Luo could only grit their teeth and attack.

“Damn it!”

His recovery interrupted, Saint Ming was furious. He pounced directly into the Fallen God Mountain Range.

He was well aware of his situation; A Hui was not wrong. He now needed to absorb as many blood sacrifices as possible to resist the side effects of his disappearing power.

While there were many Martial Artists around, they couldn't quickly accumulate more energy for him.

So he set his sights on the three Quasi-Gods in the Fallen God Mountain Range.

“Not good! He wants to absorb those three Fellow Daoists, stop him!”

A Hui immediately saw Saint Ming's intention. The Glazed Bowl glowed brightly, transforming into a hundred-zhang giant bowl that suppressed Saint Ming.

“How dare you!”

Saint Ming's expression changed. He punched his chest, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood that transformed into a bloody light, enveloping him as he escaped the attack range of the Glazed Bowl, instantly entering the Fallen God Mountain Range.

Soon, he found the first Quasi-God. Instead of absorbing him, he Sealed him and took him into his Origin World, then went to search for the next one.

He no longer planned to stay, otherwise, once his cultivation disappeared, he might very well perish here!

Before long, the second one had also been taken into his Origin World.

Just as he was searching from memory, arriving in the direction where the third Quasi-God had fallen, Wu Luo and the others had already arrived a step ahead of him and rescued that person.

“Saint Ming, hand over the two Fellow Daoists, and I can give you a respectable death!”

Wu Luo said with a serious expression.

“Do you really think you can stop me?”

Saint Ming sneered. Although his cultivation was still continuously regressing, who was he? How could he compromise with Wu Luo and the others?

“You won't last much longer!”

A Hui shook his head.

“It's not certain who will win yet!”

Saint Ming laughed loudly, countless tentacles extending from behind him, attacking Wu Luo and the others.

“Stubborn!”

Wu Luo shouted, charging forward.

A Hui and the other two also didn't hesitate. However, Ji Liantian and another Two-step Quasi-God, despite their seemingly boundless Origin and fierce Moves, secretly held back some strength.

Wu Luo and A Hui naturally sensed this and understood their intentions. They were afraid of Saint Ming's counterattack, so they held back some power and slowly engaged Saint Ming.

“This old fox!”

Ji Liantian frowned but said nothing.

Saint Ming chuckled coldly in his heart, thinking these people believed they could exhaust his power this way?

Little did they know, this was exactly what he wanted, as he could seize the opportunity to absorb the power of the two Quasi-Gods within his Origin World.

However, to avoid being noticed by the others, he acted very carefully.

Even though both sides harbored ulterior motives, a Quasi-God's strike contained terrifying power, causing countless lands to crack and ancient peaks to collapse in the Fallen God Mountain Range.

And so, an unexpected change occurred.

Within a piece of land torn apart by both sides, streaks of immortal light suddenly shot into the sky, incomparably brilliant, enveloping a million-mile radius.

At the same time, an ancient, long-standing aura of time emanated from underground!

And those immortal lights did not dissipate, but flowed ceaselessly, reflecting visions, and the visions were constantly changing.

There were majestic divine mountains reaching the Nine Heavens, deep and boundless giant valleys, Dragons roaring, Phoenixes soaring... countless precious and rare immortal medicines and Auspicious Beasts could be seen in this world.

Furthermore, above the sky, there was an ancient and mysterious Heavenly Gate, within which magnificent immortal palaces appeared faintly... “This is an ancient ruin!”

Wu Luo and the others all stopped, their gazes shocked as they looked at these visions.

“It’s a ruin!”

“Legend has it that the Fallen God Mountain Range is where gods fell. Could it be true? Is this a ruin left by a Heavenly God?”

“It looks very similar, these visions are almost identical to what’s recorded in ancient texts!”

At this moment, whether it was Quasi-Gods or Emperors in the Fallen God Mountain Range, they all erupted in excitement, realizing that an extraordinary ruin had appeared.

“Judging by the style, it seems to be from before the Dark Era?”

“Could the legend of the Fallen God Mountain Range be true?”

“If so, it’s worth exploring!”

“Looking at these signs, it will still take three months until it opens!”

And above Wu Qian Ancient City, Divine Thoughts intertwined again, this time filled with excitement.

Everything happening in the Fallen God Mountain Range also did not escape the notice of other territorial powers.

The moment the two sides began their great battle, countless eyes from outside the Wuqian Territory were already fixed on this conflict, including top Holy Lands or Emperor Sects. However, these individuals were not as close as those few Quasi-Gods.

Otherwise, more than just these few would have moved against Saint Ming earlier.

And now, seeing these visions, these forces were stirred, because the immortal light and visions were extraordinary, indicating at least the ruins left by a powerhouse above the Quasi-God realm.

At this moment, within the Eastern Thirteen Territories, the old monsters and Old Ancestors of various major forces awakened from their sealed slumber. Some forces had even immediately assembled armies and dispatched strong individuals to the location.

This commotion was also noticed by other Holy Lands, and after some investigation, they learned about the matter.

“A Heavenly God ruin! I remember the last time one appeared was during the Hongyuan Era! It is said that the rise of the Tianwu Empire was related to the ruin from the Hongyuan Era!” an elder Martial Artist said.

“I heard that there are invincible Cultivation Techniques in the Heavenly God ruin. As long as one Cultivates one, they can become invincible in the world. The currently most powerful Cang Xuan Divine Gate obtained divine arts from that Heavenly God ruin, and later became the strongest Sect after the Tianwu Empire!”

A Sect Head of a Holy Land said with great excitement.

“I heard that within the Heavenly God ruin, rank seven Sacred Medicines are more common than weeds, and there are many Quasi-God medicines. Furthermore, it contains Heavenly God Qi. Cultivating there for an hour is equivalent to a hundred years of arduous Cultivation outside.”

“It’s more than that. I heard that there are legendary divine weapons inside, and divine weapons are comparable to Emperor Weapons.”

For a time, rumors flew across the Eastern Thirteen Territories, and these rumors became increasingly exaggerated. By the end, it seemed as if entering the Heavenly God ruin would allow one to achieve Godhood and become an Emperor!

The entire Eastern Thirteen Territories was thrown into chaos. Countless Cultivators rushed towards the Wuqian Territory. Some rode Sacred Beasts through the sky, some forces led thousands of warships... For a time, most of the Sects and Legacies in the Eastern Thirteen Territories poured out, regardless of whether they were Emperor Sects or ancient Schools, or even Loose Cultivators, all wanted a piece of the pie.

Even forces from other regions had heard about it and sent out their respective powerhouses.

“With the Heavenly God ruin opening, various major forces are eyeing it covetously. This is not only a place of opportunity but also a place of great danger. It’s best for people like us not to invite disaster upon ourselves!”

In this torrent, some forces managed to remain calm. Although the Heavenly God ruin was appealing, the risks involved were immense.

Thus, these forces either sent a small number of people to simply observe, or they outright sealed their mountain gates and went into secluded Cultivation, refusing to get involved in this turmoil.

“Run!”

Although Saint Ming coveted the Heavenly God ruin, he knew that if he continued to stay, he would surely die. So, he made a decisive Move, taking advantage of Wu Luo and the others being attracted by the visions, and fled into the distance.

“Stop!”

Wu Luo reacted immediately, his expression changing.

If Saint Ming escaped, then the Ancient Martial Emperor Sect would have to constantly face his threat in the future, and he would never allow such a thing to happen.

But it was already too late. Saint Ming had already appeared a million miles away and had vanished into the Void Realm. With a difference of one realm in their cultivation, he couldn't possibly catch up.

“Pop!”

Just then, a lotus leaf suddenly appeared, then extended into the Void Realm.

“Crack!”

With a soft sound, Saint Ming was pulled out of the Void Realm.

Then the lotus leaf expanded, transforming into countless lotus leaves that firmly bound him, leaving him no room to struggle. Afterward, another lotus leaf extended into his Origin World, bringing out two figures with decaying auras!

After doing all this, the lotus leaf, dragging Saint Ming, vanished into the Void Realm.

“Seven-step Quasi-God?”

Ji Liantian’s expression was startled!

“It was Lord Sacred Lotus who acted!”

A Hui was overjoyed.

And his voice was clearly heard by Ji Liantian, who couldn't help but feel a sinking sensation in his heart.

Wu Luo, on the other hand, let out a sigh of emotion.

“Surrender or die!”

From afar, Xu Duoduo’s voice came…

“Surrender and live!”
