926: Ancient city ruins, encounter with the strong man of the Demon Palace

The road the vehicles were traveling on was actually not smooth.

This area was sparsely populated and not maintained by anyone.

Everyone could only see a stone road mostly covered by wind and sand.

Fortunately, the vehicles in the convoy had some black tech from this era, so those riding inside didn't feel much bumping.

It was high noon.

While eating dry rations, Du Xingchen, as if sensing something, saw a massive structure situated in the Desert slowly revealing its full appearance in his field of vision!

“Is this the Relic Ancient City?” Liangcai Sword, who was also in the carriage, saw the striking building.

Even though it was mostly covered by wind and sand, even though time had passed.

But this vast structure standing in the Desert was still moving!

“It is said that this Relic Ancient City is a great structure that completely separates our Mountain City Kingdom from the Outer Domain.”

As Liangcai Sword looked at the structure, he began to tell Du Xingchen about its origin: “A thousand years ago, this area was not a Desert.”

“It is rumored that at that time, our borderland was vast and rich in resources, and this area deep within was an exceptionally fertile land of blessings, where the crops grown supplied dozens of Big Cities in our borderland!”

“And that Relic Ancient City was the largest great City on the fertile land of blessings.”

“A thousand years ago, it could even be compared to the God's Temple Main City today!”

“However, Heaven did not fulfill Human wishes. When we thought this fertile land belonged only to us Humans, the beast groups also grew rapidly on this land!”

“In just a hundred years, this place produced ten fifty-thousand-year-old beasts that could crush Grand Sage Masters! As well as thousands of ordinary ten-thousand-year-old beasts!”

“We Humans began to be driven out by these beasts, and even more powerful beasts from the Outer Domain were attracted by this fertile land and migrated here, further squeezing our Human living space.”

“The struggle for territory completely unfolded from that time.”

“When our Human Experts painstakingly eliminated all Beast King-level existences in this area, they turned around and found that the real threat in this area was not those top Beast Kings, but the countless thousands and hundreds of years old beasts!”

“These beasts are endless and cannot be completely eliminated!”

“They reproduce and grow too quickly, so fast that this fertile land could no longer support their numbers, causing them to form beast tides and advance towards the Cities on the edge of the kingdom!”

“The Relic Ancient City, as the frontline City holding firm against the beast tide, also began to decline at that time.”

“This is an unsolvable problem. It seems we can only let go of this land, only give this land to the beasts, but in that case, the kingdom will have to constantly withstand the impact of the beast tides bred from this fertile land.”

“At the final moment, the three Supreme Experts of the Relic Ancient City made a shocking decision.”

“They jointly communicated with the God in Heaven!”

“Praying for the God to bring disaster upon this land, to let barrenness exist forever in this fertile and rich land!”

“They succeeded.”

“Under the means displayed by the unknown God, this land became a Desert, a Desert without any vitality!”

“The beasts felt the barrenness of this land and began to leave, retreating to the Outer Domain where they should have been.”

“Relatively speaking, the Outer Domain has more vitality than the Desert we are currently in.”

“Unfortunately… we can only search for a little information about the green mountains and clear waters that once existed in this Desert, through this Relic Ancient City.”

Liangcai Sword sighed.

Du Xingchen remained silent; of course, he knew all this.

Thinking about it, he also felt a bit emotional.

The means of a God can dominate all living beings.

But the minds of the God in this World cannot escape themselves.

Looking at the entire continent, there are too many God who are engrossed in schemes and calculations.

The God of this World are not like God, but more like Experts with powerful strength who claim to be God.

Essentially, there is no difference from Humans.

Of course, that's thinking a bit too far ahead.

What should be considered now is how to deal with the current crisis.

He subtly glanced at the White-Haired Old Man sitting quietly on the beast's back in the convoy.

Du Xingchen could see that the other party's originally calm facial expression was gradually beginning to show a curve at this moment.

Like a fake doll, he shamelessly revealed that chilling smile.

He was no longer deliberately hiding!

In the convoy, several other Demon Hall members who had infiltrated it also exchanged glances and began to size up the main characters.

“Quick, faster!” Wang Lie was the most excited and happy one in the crowd.

After seeing the Relic Ancient City, he felt as if the inheritance within was beckoning him!

In just half an hour.

The convoy arrived in front of the Relic Ancient City, and this massive Relic Ancient City was completely presented before everyone!

The majestic structure was now covered with a layer of sand and dust.

Like a high-ranking person wearing a cape, exuding majesty!

The convoy also stopped under Wang Lie's command.

After all, in his opinion, it was time for him to get off and find the inheritance with his Master.

“Bang~”

The Giant Rhino, however, walked out of the vehicle at this moment.

His external state was still that of a sickly person.

“Relic Ancient City, have we arrived?” The Giant Rhino looked up at the massive structure in front of him, turned his head, and asked Wang Lie.

“Arrived? Not yet?” Wang Lie said frankly.

“Heh, stop pretending, I've already sensed it.”

Wang Lie scratched his head: “Sensed what?”

As his puzzled question fell, another voice from the ancient City in front attracted everyone's attention.

“Teacher, you've come too?!”

The moment this voice appeared, all members of the main characters recognized the other party's identity from the familiar voice.

“Moyun?” The Giant Rhino looked at the young man walking out of the building and the beautiful woman beside him, his thick eyebrows habitually furrowed, only tighter than before: “Why are you here?!”

“I came here to avoid the Jiangshan City pursuers.” Moyun didn't feel anything was wrong and said truthfully.

“Then why are you with these people?!” The Giant Rhino immediately spoke, his tone already changing from questioning to demanding!

Listening to the Giant Rhino's voice, everyone's gaze also shifted from Moyun to the area behind him.

Only to see.

Behind him.

In the entrance area of this Relic Ancient City, stood casually dressed, seemingly ordinary passersby.

“These people?” Moyun turned his head to look, not understanding what the Giant Rhino meant.

“Hehehe, this must be the famous Rhinoceros Grade A Grand Sage Master from ten years ago, right? I've long admired you.” Among the eight or nine disguised people, a White-Haired Old Man walked out.

As he spoke, he lightly cupped his hands in greeting.

If you look closely, you can see that this person's right hand is missing a finger!

“You've been planning for this moment for a long time, haven't you?” The Giant Rhino's expression was calm, but his aura still showed signs of weakness.

“Of course, we've waited too long for this moment.” Feng Executive, who was missing a finger, said leisurely and gleefully: “But it's also your own fault for not knowing how to hide. The information about the Eternal Night Kingdom Prince is only over ten years old, and you thought our Demon Hall wouldn't care?”

The conversation between the two… was not on the same wavelength.

The Giant Rhino was asking about the poisoning incident two days ago, while the Demon Hall was answering about their search for the Eternal Night Kingdom Prince for over ten years.

However, the one who connected the next sentence was Wen Xiucheng.

“If Moyun hadn't exposed the information, how could you have discovered my existence?!”

“Moyun! You're not even pretending anymore! If my guess is correct, finding the huan ling grass was just an excuse, and your real purpose was to get us to come to the Outer Domain with you, so you could join hands with the Demon Hall people here to deal with me! I, Wen Xiucheng, will never rest until I've taken revenge on you!”

Wen Xiucheng roared these words at Moyun.

This caused the Demon Hall people to raise a few question marks while they slightly sorted things out.

They looked unexpectedly at the seemingly harmless young man beside them who was with a woman.

So it was this guy who spread the information about the Eternal Night Kingdom Prince.

No wonder they said that.

Given the cautious nature of this Eternal Night Kingdom orphan, how could he expose unnecessary information about himself when recruiting a convoy?

“Good kid, your mind is ruthless enough, it suits my taste. Are you interested in joining our Demon Hall?” Feng Executive looked at Moyun with appreciation.

However, Moyun himself.

At this moment, he was in a brainstorm.

He… what did he do?

“Moyun! I've been hiding for over ten years just for the day I can restore my Eternal Night Kingdom, and now it's all ruined by you. Die for me!” In Wen Xiucheng's view, Moyun's current 'silence' was mocking him, and it further confirmed his identity as the mastermind behind everything!

How could he tolerate this?

Amidst the roar of Dragon might, four shimmering cards exploded in front of Wen Xiucheng. The moment the fourth purple card flashed, Wen Xiucheng's right hand was suddenly covered with Dragon scales.

In an instant, like a cannonball shot out of a barrel, it arrived in front of Moyun with a bang!

“Hmph! Little brat, you can't jump around here.” Feng Executive sneered, then raised his four-fingered hand towards Wen Xiucheng.

“Lay a hand on my Student, ask me first!” The Giant Rhino roared furiously, while getting up and rushing towards Feng Executive!

“You? Hehehehe, you're already poisoned to this extent, why don't you think about how long you can last?” Amidst a chilling laugh, a Ghost-like figure suddenly appeared behind the Giant Rhino.

This person was none other than the Master of Wang Lie, who had been hiding in the convoy!

That White-Haired Old Man whose presence had always been extremely low!

The moment he attacked, a dark, Ghost-like Miracle, carrying a gust of cold wind, instantly surged forth!

Grand Sage Master, he was also a Grand Sage Master-level existence!

Although from his aura, this person's aura was unstable, belonging to someone who had forced their way up to this level.

But compared to an ordinary Saint Master, he was still much stronger!

Feeling the cold wind behind him, the Giant Rhino's expression gradually became ferocious: “Caught you.”

“Boom!” Power that was raging to the extreme condensed into a fist with the Giant Rhino's punch, directly hitting the rapidly approaching phantom behind him!

With just one blow.

This person was sent flying backward with a bang, dragging their heavy feet through the sand, moving dozens of meters while maneuvering!

“Pfft!” A mouthful of blood was spat onto the scorching sand, and the White-Haired Old Man's pupils trembled, unable to accept it: “You weren't poisoned?!”

“What do you think?” The Giant Rhino smiled, his entire aura suddenly changing.

Completely returning to its Peak!

“Trash, you can't even handle a small matter and were even tricked by the other party. If you can't even play dirty as well as them, how did you become a member of the Demon Hall?!” Feng Executive saw the White-Haired Old Man coughing up blood after attacking the enemy, his face darkened, and he cursed angrily.

He stopped his action of attacking Wen Xiucheng and turned to look at the Giant Rhino.

The situation of being attacked by two Grand Sage Masters was already very stable, but now this Man had single-handedly turned the tables.

However, for now, everything was still under control.

The weakest among the people behind him were Six-Star Soul Card Masters, so the plan wouldn't be affected, it would just be a bit more troublesome.
