Chapter 53: Ancient Ruins! Green Snake Mistakenly Enters Killing Array!
The mountain peak where Yun Yi resided was now shrouded in a deathly silence.
The surroundings were so quiet it seemed as if time had stopped; only the occasional passing wind sound, like a sharp blade, sliced through this stillness.
"Intruder, leave at once! Otherwise, death!"
That icy, bone-piercing warning voice seemed squeezed out from cracks deep within the earth, circling and reverberating around the mountain peak.
Every word seemed to carry frost, chilling the hearts of those who heard it.
However, those ferocious beasts, violent by nature and knowing not what danger was, paid this warning no heed.
They stared with blood-red eyes, letting out bursts of low roars, and relying on instinct charged madly toward the mountain peak.
In an instant, beams of dazzling blood-red light suddenly erupted around the mountain peak; the lights crisscrossed and intertwined, manifesting a massive and complex blood-colored array.
Shaluo Tianda Zhen!
All the ferocious beasts that had disregarded the warning and intruded were instantly locked tight by the array's power; they struggled frantically, letting out miserable howls, trying to break free from this invisible cage.
But it was all in vain; the array was like a ruthless meat grinder, grinding their bodies to bits bit by bit.
Accompanied by desperate screams, their flesh and blood were absorbed by the array, fusing into the array plate.
With each portion of flesh-and-blood energy fused, the array's light grew a degree stronger, its power rising accordingly, like a terrifying existence constantly evolving amid slaughter.
This array of Yun Yi's could be called a treasure.
A peerless treasure that can keep growing amid slaughter!
Just like this, Yun Yi and Yun Yun had been in seclusion on this mountain peak for a year already.
One day.
A masked green-skirted girl fled in headlong panic toward the vicinity of this mountain peak.
Her steps were staggering, her hair disheveled, sweat soaking through her clothes; clearly she had exerted every ounce of strength on the road of escape.
Behind her, two middle-aged men followed like shadows, pursuing relentlessly.
Both of these middle-aged men were Dou Zun Strongmen, their bodies emitting a terrifyingly powerful aura.
With every step they took, the ground would tremble slightly, as if unable to bear the weight.
"The smell of blood is so heavy!"
The girl could clearly perceive the dense, bloody qi pervading the vicinity of the mountain peak.
Her heart tightened fiercely, her steps unconsciously slowing as she warily scanned the surroundings.
And the two middle-aged men chasing from behind, the moment they saw this mountain peak, their expressions instantly turned ugly.
Their steps seemed nailed to the ground; they no longer dared to move forward a single fraction.
"How did we end up here?"
Both were Nine Nether Earth Underworld Python Clan Strongmen.
The middle-aged man with a goatee spoke with a slightly trembling voice, his brows tightly knitted into a "chuan" character.
The other, burly man's eyes revealed deep dread.
"The Clan Leader ordered... no unauthorized entry..."
Some time ago, quite a few clansmen had attempted to force their way into this mountain peak.
As a result, their clan lost two Dou Zun inside.
Upon learning this, Clan Leader Yao Ming strictly forbade any Nine Nether Earth Underworld Python clansman from setting foot within a hundred-li radius of the mountain peak.
This place has always given off an eerie vibe.
So now both are very wary of this place.
And the girl they were pursuing with all their might is the Snake-People Tribe's great enemy.
The girl possesses the Green Snake Three Flower Pupils.
This constitution innately exerts a powerful suppressive effect on the Snake-People.
In the eyes of the Snake-People Tribe, she is like a thorn in the eye, a splinter in the flesh.
An absolute threat that must not be left in the world!
"They actually didn't follow?"
Discovering the two middle-aged men had actually stopped, the girl instantly understood that staying near this mountain peak was temporarily safe.
However, the bloody, dangerous aura emanating from this mountain peak filled her heart with unease.
She also had to find an opportunity to leave here as soon as possible.
Therefore, she carefully circled around this mountain peak, each step light as a cat's, eyes vigilantly sweeping the movements around her.
However, despite her utmost caution, she still inadvertently triggered the array at the edge of the great array.
Only a "swish" was heard; a blood-colored blade light, like red lightning, wrapped in fierce killing intent, slashed ruthlessly at the girl.
That blade light was extremely fast; in the blink of an eye it reached before the girl, who only felt a chill rush at her face, as if death was already within arm's reach.
At this critical moment, the girl erupted with all her strength, dodging sideways with everything she had; her whole body barely grazed past the blade light, narrowly avoiding this fatal strike.
In this moment, the girl who had survived the calamity already had her back soaked in sweat, her face pale as paper.
If not for her quick reaction, she would now have been cut in two by the blood blade.
This made her dare not linger in the slightest; she swiftly withdrew from this dangerous mountain peak.
And during this period, the entire Beast Domain fell into chaos.
Rumor had it that an Ancient Ruins in the White Bone Mountain Range was about to emerge.
Once this news spread, it instantly swept the entire continent, attracting countless Strongmen who spared no distance, all rushing toward the Beast Domain.
It was said that a Heaven Rank Dou Skill was hidden in those ruins; for these Strongmen, it was simply a dream existence.
Heaven Rank Dou Skills are extremely rare existences on the entire continent!
Every single volume can become a top-tier sect's Foundation/Heritage!
Besides that, there is also the Soul Infant Fruit.
This fruit has a miraculous effect on repairing the Soul.
In a certain stretch of Sky, three figures tore through the long sky, flying over swiftly.
These three people are precisely Yao Chen, Xiao Yan, and Mu Qingluan.
The current Yao Chen has already successfully resurrected, and his strength has also recovered to the level of Nine Revolution Dou Zun Peak.
He is merely a single step away from that Half-Saint Realm.
However, because his Soul previously suffered severe damage, this one step is like a natural moat difficult to cross, always obstructing his Breakthrough.
And the Soul Infant Fruit is precisely the key to repairing his Soul injuries.
Perhaps, once the Soul repair is complete, he will be able to shatter this shackle in one go and step into the Half-Saint rank.
Therefore, the moment he received the news, he brought Xiao Yan and Mu Qingluan and rushed over.
This trip to the Ancient Ruins, with Yao Lao by his side, Xiao Yan can be said to be full of confidence.
They flew all the way, and for some unknown reason also arrived near this Mountain Peak filled with a bloody smell.
Along the way, they had already heard quite a few rumors about this Mountain Peak.
It is said that quite a few curious people have lost their lives inside this Mountain Peak.
"Such a fierce Array; the person who set up this formation is truly a great talent……"
Yao Lao gazed at that Mountain Peak emitting a Dangerous aura, his eyes full of admiration.
He has been immersed in the Dao of alchemy and Arrays for many years, his attainment in Arrays is extremely high, so naturally he can see the extraordinary aspects of this grand Array.
Even the natural Array of his Starfall Pavilion, in his eyes, appears quite inferior compared to this formation.
"Wonder which Strongman set up this formation."
While speaking, Yao Lao slightly frowned, falling into deep thought.
He tried hard to recall in his mind some Strongmen skilled in Arrays, familiar faces flashing rapidly through his mind.
But soon, all were denied by Yao Lao shaking his head.
