Let me go with you; if there truly is danger, having someone to assist will be conducive to escaping.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Hua Changxi looked at Jing Liao, feeling the benefits of having teammates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tong Yao also said: \"Jing Liao is right; going in alone is too risky.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hua Changxi said: \"Then it's settled; Jing Liao and I will go in first, and you others enter only if there is no danger.\" She paused, then looked at Hua Liulang, \"Sixth Brother, you must stay close to Tong Yao.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hua Liulang nodded and said with concern: \"Ninth Sister, you must also be careful yourself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hua Changxi uttered an 'Mm,' then looked at Jing Liao: \"Let's go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately after, Tong Yao, Yan Zhenzhen, and Hua Liulang watched as the two of them entered the spatial rift one after the other, flying into it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Zhenzhen felt somewhat worried: \"If this really is the City Lord's Mansion of Xuanyuan City, there shouldn't be any danger inside, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tong Yao said: \"There probably won't be any other dangers, but we must fear the presence of prohibitions.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Important and critical locations like Sacred Lands or City Lord's Mansions usually have various prohibitions set up to prevent outsiders from sneaking in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hua Liulang, however, nervously silently counted the time: \"Ninth Sister and the others haven't come out yet; does that mean there is no danger inside?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tong Yao said: \"Not necessarily; it is also possible that they have been trapped.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hua Liulang's face tightened: \"Then what should we do? Should we notify the Great Elder and the others to come over and rescue them?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Yan Zhenzhen laughed dismissively: \"Don't think of calling for help the moment you encounter a problem; we still don't know the situation inside.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If there are opportunities inside, and you call a large group of people to come and divide them up, Hua Changxi would be angered to death by you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hua Liulang: \"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tong Yao patted Hua Liulang on the shoulder: \"Don't rush; Changxi and Jing Liao both possess the strength to protect themselves; exploring an unknown ruin shouldn't result in a life-or-death crisis.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hua Liulang breathed a sigh of relief and said apologetically: \"I haven't undergone many trials; I've made myself look foolish in front of Senior Sister Yan and Senior Brother Tong.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tong Yao smiled: \"It doesn't matter; you are just anxious because you care too much.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Zhenzhen estimated the time: \"It's almost been a quarter of an hour, hasn't it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tong Yao looked at the spatial rift before him, took a deep breath, and said: \"Let's go in as well!\" Then, looking at Hua Liulang, he instructed once more, \"Stay close to me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hua Liulang nodded with a mix of apprehension and excitement, followed behind Tong Yao and Yan Zhenzhen, and flew into the spatial rift.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boom~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment they entered the spatial rift, a vast pressure like a toppling mountain and surging sea heavily pressed down upon Tong Yao, Yan Zhenzhen, and Hua Liulang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With two 'thump' sounds, Tong Yao and Yan Zhenzhen were pressed down onto their knees on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a 'bang,' Hua Liulang was pressed flat against the ground, prostrating with his five limbs extended.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More than ten meters ahead of the three, Jing Liao was also kneeling on the ground; a few meters further ahead was Hua Changxi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the sound of heavy objects hitting the ground, Jing Liao knew that Tong Yao and the other three had entered, and he shouted loudly: \"Crawl forward; do you see the yellow tokens on the ground? Once we grab a token, we should be able to break free from the prohibition.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment they entered, both he and Hua Changxi had been pressed to their knees by the prohibition, unable to move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, there were no other dangers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Using his Talisman Eye, he saw that the scattered yellow tokens on the square emitted the same yellow spiritual light as the prohibition, so he guessed that the yellow tokens could dispel the prohibition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tong Yao struggled to turn his head and indeed saw quite a few yellow tokens scattered across the vast ground ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides the yellow tokens, there were also numerous remains and suits of yellow armor on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Zhenzhen exerted all her strength, yet she could not move even an inch: \"What do we do if we can't crawl?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the very front, Hua Changxi was crawling at a turtle's pace toward a position to her front-left where a yellow token lay; hearing Yan Zhenzhen's words, she immediately spoke up: \"The pressure of this prohibition can assist in body refinement; circulate your body-refining cultivation technique, and you can resist the suppression.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Tong Yao and Hua Liulang immediately did as instructed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both of them were artifact refiners, cultivating both magic and physique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed, coordinating with their body-refining cultivation techniques, both of them began to be able to move forward slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Surprisingly, Hua Liulang's speed of movement was actually slightly faster than Tong Yao's.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Yan Zhenzhen, who was lagging at the very back, felt astonished in her heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hua Liulang's body-refining cultivation method was actually better than that of the direct disciples of the Artifact Saint Palace!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Hua Liulang, who was already several meters ahead of him, Tong Yao was also very surprised in his heart; when Hua Liulang had previously advanced to the Nascent Soul realm, the Great Elder had said that Hua Liulang's physique had been refined extremely well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I've got the token!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment Hua Changxi's hand touched the yellow token, the immense pressure weighing on her body vanished without a trace, and then, she was able to move freely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the several people still crawling with difficulty, Hua Changxi asked with a smile: \"Do you need my help?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Neither Jing Liao nor Tong Yao spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hua Liulang also clenched his teeth tightly and continued to crawl, wanting to retrieve the token himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Zhenzhen, however, shouted loudly, \"I want it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hua Changxi smiled and said, \"Wait.\" Speaking thus, she quickly walked toward another yellow token, picked it up, and then approached Yan Zhenzhen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once Yan Zhenzhen obtained the token, she could immediately move again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was not that she did not wish to rely on herself; in truth, her capabilities were simply limited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although she also practiced body refinement, since array masters had no high requirements for physical constitution, she had never paid it much attention, and the body-refining cultivation method transmitted by the Array Saint Sect was not top-tier anyway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rather than wasting time competing in physical endurance, it was better to spend more time investigating; perhaps she could even discover additional opportunities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xuan Yuan Token!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is the Xuan Yuan Token of the Xuan Yuan Army!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the two characters 'Xuan Yuan' on the yellow token, Yan Zhenzhen's expression changed drastically as she looked at the remains and armor scattered across the square: \"Could it be that they were the Xuan Yuan Army who guarded Xuan Yuan City!\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1655,"2026-06-12T02:51:23.636Z",1,"Qwen3.5 397B","fe4169671edae755a4876aa607cbc640e9e854e8d41bc47d794c90b1e7cc5545","the-great-jin-s-most-iron-rice-bowl-chapter-338","the-great-jin-s-most-iron-rice-bowl-chapter-336",558,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-great-jin-s-most-iron-rice-bowl-cover.jpg"]
