Fighting: Practice makes it real, start with a poisonous body.

Chapter 95: The Devoted Soul is Destroyed
"Yes!"

A group of ancient clan members wearing golden robes stood up. They were generally in their thirties or forties, with the cultivation level of Dou Zong, and there was not much room for improvement in the power of their bloodlines.

"What do you think?"

Gu Dao looked at Lei Ying and others.

Yan Jin clasped his hands together, tapped his arms with his fingertips, and said slowly: "My Yan Clan will not join in this fun."

Lei Ying frowned and said, "Those who came with me today are all elites of the Thunder Clan. I'll leave the exploration of the ruins to you."

"If that's the case, the discovery of the treasure in the ruins has nothing to do with the Flame Clan and the Thunder Clan."

Gu Dao's eyes were calm.

The two nodded: "This is as it should be."

Yao Wangui appeared to be flattering on the surface, but he was actually disdainful in his heart.

Without ruthless tactics and a heart of stone, how can one rule a clan?
The Stone Clan and the Spirit Clan also sent out people, obviously not wanting to miss the treasures in the ruins, even though they haven't even seen the shadow of the treasures yet.

The Ancient Clan, Medicine Clan, Stone Clan, and Spirit Clan each sent out 500 people, totaling 2,000 people, forming the first advance team.

If any accident happens, there will be a second advance team, a third advance team... and even a steady stream of descendants from the four tribes!
Gu Dao stroked his long beard and said, "You have been nurtured by the family for many years. Today is the time for you to repay your kindness. Go, the glory of the ancient family depends on you."

The two thousand advance team members looked at each other in confusion.

There is no doubt that stepping into the ruins carries the risk of offending the emperor's majesty, but if you refuse to go, you will probably be killed on the spot by the elders of each tribe!

Yao Wangui said coldly, "Listen up, my fellow men of the Yao clan. If you bring disgrace upon our clan's reputation, don't blame the clan's rules for being ruthless."

The two thousand advance team entered the bronze gate with trepidation in their hearts, filed in one after another, and their figures gradually disappeared in the dark corridor.

"These useless people can still contribute their remaining energy to the family. It's not in vain to have raised them for so many years."

Yao Wangui's eyes were like frost, and his face was as cold as iron.

When these words were spoken, even Gu Dao looked at them with surprise.

This elder who presides over the punishment hall of the Medicine Clan is known for his harshness and cruelty, even among the eight ancient clans.

To utter such heart-wrenching words in public at this moment is truly disheartening and a loss of face for the imperial family.

Gu Dao shook his head. As an outsider, he couldn't say anything about the affairs of the Medicine Clan.

Right now, exploring the Sword Emperor's remains is the top priority, and we can't let these things ruin the relationship.

Just as everyone waited anxiously for good news from the advance team, the ruins suddenly trembled violently. A vast pressure rose from the deepest part of the ruins, instantly changing the weather and clouds, and even the sun and moon dimmed.

"How dare you disturb the Emperor's peace!"

An angry roar was like thunder exploding in the sky, carrying with it a mighty divine power that made the mountains and rivers tremble.

Gu Dao's expression suddenly changed: "It's Hun Mie Sheng!"

It was his negligence. This person knelt in front of the stone statue of the Sword Emperor to confess his sins. In order to please the Sword Emperor, he must have been hoping that all races would step in so that he could drive out the invaders for the Sword Emperor!
"die!"

Along with this cold and fierce shout, a vast holy power descended, and the sky and the earth suddenly darkened. A dark purple devilish light suddenly surged out, turning into a raging torrent. Wherever it passed, the space was torn into hideous cracks.
The two thousand vanguards were stunned by this sudden and horrifying scene. Their eyes widened with fear and despair, they tried to escape, but found that their bodies were frozen in place, unable to move at all.

"boom--!!"

The deafening explosion had not yet completely dissipated, and the world had fallen into dead silence.

The torrent of dark purple magic light was like the destructive breath from hell, annihilating the two thousand advance teams in an instant. Wherever the residual power reached, the broken corpses turned into ashes the moment they touched the magic light, and not even a scream was left behind.

Gu Dao said in a deep voice: "Hun Mie Sheng, you want to be the enemy of my six clans by yourself?

What you did today will make you unacceptable to the six clans even if you leave the ruins one day! You must think it through!"

"Old Gudao, if you have the guts, enter the ruins and fight me! Talking is not a skill!"

Hun Mie Sheng's cold words were heard.

A hint of anger flickered across the old man's face. His withered hand gripped his dragon-headed cane tightly, yet he hesitated to take a step forward. "Old dog, all bark and no bite!"

Hun Mie Sheng's sarcastic voice was heard again from the ruins, and he was sure that Gu Dao would not dare to step into the ruins.

A murderous intent flashed across Gu Dao's face, but it quickly faded, his expression returning to calm. He said, "Hun Miesheng is trapped in the ruins, but now he has volunteered to become a gravekeeper. Do you have any good ideas?"

Lei Ying shook his head: "The Sword Emperor's ruins are extremely powerful. If you and I really stepped into them and killed Hun Mie Sheng, I'm afraid it would completely enrage the Sword Emperor and bring about true terror."

"Alas, it's not that we are afraid of the Soul Extermination, but we are afraid of offending the Emperor's majesty.

The Sword Emperor has spent his entire life fighting for the human race. It would be unkind to interrupt him rashly, but it would be a pity for a young man from our ancient clan to have lost his life in vain."

Gu Dao sighed, his face filled with sorrow.

Lei Ying glanced at him indifferently without saying much.

Yao Wangui looked annoyed: "What should we do now?"

A cold light flashed in Gu Dao's eyes: "The ruins cannot be explored, so we can only start from Xiao Jibai, the descendant of the Sword Emperor.

I intend to use this place as a base, construct a giant space tunnel, recruit personnel from the six tribes, block the northwest, and dig three feet into the ground, leaving not a single inch untouched, until I find him!"

Lei Ying pondered for a moment and said, "I'm afraid Xiao Jibai has already left the Northwest Continent. It's still a little late for us to learn about the discovery of the Sword Emperor's ruins..."

"This is the last resort. It's never too late to mend the situation. If you do nothing, you'll end up in the lowest level."

Yan Jin nodded: "It's a good idea."

For the emperor's inheritance, no price is too high!

Gu Dao looked indifferent: "Ancient South Sea!"

"exist!"

An elder in a golden robe walked out.

"You must return to the ancient world immediately and report the events here to the clan leader. Then, take my spatial jade slip and use it as a signal to anchor the node and open up the space!"

"Yes!"

Within the ruins.

Hun Mie Sheng knelt in front of the stone statue of the Sword Emperor with a pious look.

"Supreme Sword Emperor, can you please atone for my sins... Reincarnation, Great Emperor, protect me!"

…………

Jia Ma Empire.

Su Yun observed what was happening in the Black Horn Region through the imperial aura left on the stone statue of the Sword Emperor.

"This Hunmiesheng is quite sensible, saving me from having to spend a few points to show off my power in front of others.

But before I become emperor, you must help me guard the ruins."

Figure it out, impossible!
Su Yunduan sat on a sandalwood chair, her legs casually crossed: "The eight ancient clans... oh no, the six clans, I'm afraid they won't let this go easily."

The affairs of the Northwest Continent are almost over. When this storm has passed, we will head to Zhongzhou."

…………

Two years later.

"So, when will the limelight finally pass?"

Su Yun began to doubt his life.
