Chapter 625: 0626 Ruined Ancient City! (Second Update)

Bursting through the haze that was like a murky fog, their eyes met a world of gray.

The scene before them was too shocking for those who were entering for the first time, even the disciples from the ancient lands who had seen much and knew a lot couldn’t help but show their amazement.

It could be seen that the Ji Clan’s Ji Lingchen, the Mu Clan’s Mu Cannan, and the Shi Clan’s Shi Qingbing stood at the forefront, not moving immediately but observing the Great Emperor’s tomb that was vastly different from the ancient lands.

There was no sign of thriving life in front of them, only desolation as far as the eye could see, with broken limbs and ruins— an ancient city in decay lay before them, emitting an aura from a distant era, as if they had returned to ancient times.

Encountering such a scene upon entry was beyond everyone’s expectation.

Ji Lingchen’s expression changed slightly, "This Great Emperor’s tomb is strangely peculiar, it’s quite different from what my father described. Could it be that the scenes inside can change at will?"

Ji Lingchen was puzzled; according to his father, when he first entered the Great Emperor’s tomb there had been no ruined ancient city but an endless forest filled with powerful spiritual beasts. However, the scene before them was clearly very different from the last time the Great Emperor’s tomb was opened.

Tang Surou, Ye Qiu, Tang Ze, and others stood in one place. Although Tang Ze and his companions disliked Ye Qiu, now was not the time to settle personal grudges; upon entering here, everyone was thinking about opportunities.

"How did an ancient city suddenly appear here?" Tang Surou murmured to herself, not understanding, only feeling that the Great Emperor’s tomb was becoming more and more mysterious.

The geniuses from the other clans saw that Ji Lingchen and the others were not moving, so naturally, they did not dare to wander off either, standing still and looking around.

"They have gone in!"

In the eyes of the crowd, Ji Lingchen, Mu Cannan, and Shi Qingbing, leading people from their clans, headed straight for the interior of the ancient city without abandoning it.

"The people from the three great clans haven’t given up, which means there are opportunities inside. We should follow them," and soon after, the five prodigies of the War Clan closely followed.

Entering the Great Emperor’s tomb for the first time, everything seemed mysterious. Although there were descriptions from the elders about the Great Emperor’s tomb, the current situation was completely at odds with those narratives, and many people were unsure of what to do.

However, at present, the entry of the people from the three great ancient clans moved many others, perhaps the people from these ancient clans knew something, and there really might be opportunities in the old city.

As the War Clan followed, the other geniuses from the ancient clans set off one after another, unwilling to take a detour, following the people from the three great ancient clans, perhaps they could take fewer wrong turns.

With more and more people entering the ancient city, the few people from the Tang Clan outside could not see clearly what was happening inside the city, which was shrouded in a mist that could block Divine Sense’s exploration.

"Su Rou, we should go in too. The three great ancient clans must have discovered something. We can’t fall behind; otherwise, if the opportunity really is snatched away, it’ll be a great loss," said Tang Ze.

"I also agree. Since the Ji Clan is taking the risk ahead, even if the opportunity is taken by them, leaving some soup for us is still acceptable!" Tang Hao said.

Tang Surou pondered for a long time; apart from her Tang Clan not being in a rush to enter, most of the ancient clans had gone into the ancient city. If there was danger, by now they should have heard some noise.

"Alright, let’s go in," Tang Surou decided with gritted teeth, followed closely by Tang Ze and the others, who sneered deliberately as they passed by Ye Qiu.

Ye Qiu looked deeply at the ancient city, feeling that it wasn’t so simple inside, but with Tang Surou’s decision to enter, he had no choice but to follow. As for Tang Ze and his companions’ provocation, Ye Qiu couldn’t be bothered to contend with them for now; obtaining the opportunity was his priority.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh...

Only after Tang Surou and the others entered the ancient city did they discover that it was indeed a different world within.

The mottled city walls they had seen earlier were only the outskirts; it was by entering further inside that they could get a clearer, more thorough view of the entire ancient city.

Everywhere were collapsed and broken buildings devoid of any signs of life, not even a single strand of weed could be seen. It was like a dead city, an empty city, without any breath of life.

The wind blew, picking up sheets of yellow sand, some collapsed houses had thick layers of sand accumulated beneath them.

There were some pillars on either side of the old road, made of a special kind of stone that was rare and extremely hard. Some lay across the old road, others still stood erect, while some were broken in two.

"Did Great Emperor-level powerhouses live here in the past? It feels like it used to be a very large ancient city, probably very prosperous," Tang Ze said.

"Regarding that period of history, there’s really little described in the ancient books. This place can be said to be the ancestral land of the ancient times, but for some unknown reason, a great war broke out, turning this gathering place of Emperor-level powerhouses into a sea of blood. The heavens and earth were overturned in battle, leading to the fall of numerous emperors, bringing upon the gods’ twilight," Tang Surou revealed a piece of history, although fragmented, it profoundly moved the other few.

Ye Qiu ran his hand over a white broken dam stone pillar, which bore many cracks. He quickly discovered a palm print on it. He had just tried it, and found that he could only scratch the stone by invoking the power of his black flames, yet leaving a palm print would be exceedingly difficult.

Ye Qiu was shocked in his heart, inexplicably guessing that the person who left the palm print on the stone pillar was probably an invincible being.

"There are remains..." someone suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

Tang Surou, Ye Qiu, and Tang Ze saw ahead that Ji Lingchen, Mu Cannan, and Shi Qingbing, the three most powerful prodigies, were gathered in one place, staring at a huge skeleton.

The few of them quickly rushed over.

This skeleton was clearly human, but unlike ordinary skeletons because its bones were golden. From a distance, it was as if they were coated with a layer of gold, devoid of any flesh.

No one knew how many years had passed, the flesh long gone, leaving only a skeleton behind.

"This was an Emperor Level myth realm powerhouse," Ji Lingchen said calmly, his eyes not showing much concern.

Myth realm bones are golden? Many were puzzled, but someone explained, "In the myth realm, whether it is blood or bones, one has undergone complete transformation. This is the pinnacle of the myth realm, a sign of the strongest. This powerhouse was probably just one step away from breaking through to an even stronger realm. It’s a pity that they perished here without even leaving a name behind!"

An existence at the pinnacle of the myth realm, placed in the ancient lands of today, would be a transcendent being. Yet, in the ancient city, they were just like an unnamed soldier, which was quite lamentable.

Both Tang Surou and the other ancient clan geniuses present revealed a touch of melancholy.

However, this also indirectly proved how terrifying the war was back then. Even a powerhouse at the pinnacle of the myth realm had merely died there. So, in the deepest parts of the ancient city, could there still be remains of even stronger beings?

While many had not yet come to their senses, some people had already taken the lead and rushed towards the deepest part.

Even Ji Lingchen and the others weren’t as fast.

"There are bodies of even stronger beings inside... it means a great opportunity!"

Swish swish swish...

The various clan descendants who were originally gathered around the skeleton all rushed towards the depths of the ancient city, feeling that a great opportunity was not far away.
