Fantasy: The Clan Chief Lies Down, His House Is Full of Emperors
Chapter 271 The Conspiracy Exposed
This is indeed a real ruin, but all the good stuff inside has been looted by the demonic cult.
Now, apart from the demonic cultivators who have set up numerous formations and ambushes, there's nothing of value inside. At most, there are a few ordinary spiritual herbs that aren't very old.
Therefore, 99% of the cultivators who enter the ruins will die inside, with only a small portion leaving empty-handed.
It wasn't that they were lucky; it was entirely the demonic cultivators who deliberately let them leave to cover their tracks. If everyone who went in died inside, it would be too obvious.
Xu Luo and Xu Chen soon encountered many familiar faces, such as You Jingyi from the You family of Duanshan City, who was leading several Heavenly Palace Realm clansmen into the ruins.
This person is ranked last on the list of prodigies. Although his cultivation has improved over the years, he is still far from the Dharma Aspect Realm, so he can naturally enter.
This place isn't too far from Duanshan City. They rushed over immediately after hearing the news, making them the second group to arrive. The first group consisted of some nearby forces.
"Tsk tsk, another genius is going to be eliminated from the list of geniuses," Xu Chen sighed with schadenfreude, after all, the You family and the Xu family were not on good terms.
The young master of the Wang family, the most prestigious family in Zheng State, followed closely behind. He was quite talented in the art of the sword and was determined to inherit the legacy of the Three Swords True Saint.
Xu Luo was secretly delighted.
Because among his enemies in his past life was the Wang family, he even hoped that all the younger generation of the Wang family would go in and die inside.
Within the ruins, spiritual energy abounds, and weeds and towering trees with lush foliage grow everywhere.
Therefore, after entering the ruins, You Jingyi did not find anything amiss, since it was indeed a genuine ruin, albeit one that had long been hollowed out.
"We're already several hours late, we need to hurry."
With a wave of his hand, You Jing and his entourage of several Heavenly Palace Realm cultivators randomly chose a direction and soared into the sky.
The same thing happened to the young master of the Wang family who came in next.
No matter which direction they chose, death awaited them.
Moreover, their flesh, blood, and soul will become nourishment for demonic cultivators to improve their cultivation.
If you happen to encounter a demonic cultivator who is skilled in corpse refining, you might be able to preserve a complete corpse.
"Papa..."
Xu Luo finished eating the sunflower seeds in his hand and clapped his hands.
"Let's go, that's about enough."
Xu Chen was still a little unsatisfied. After all, watching people jump into the fire was a strange feeling, and he could only suppress his laughter.
After returning to the Drunken Immortal Pavilion in the capital of Zheng, the two began to spread a message through the pavilion's intelligence system.
"The Three-Sword True Saint does not exist at all, and his ruins are fake. There are no inheritances or rare treasures inside, only a large number of demonic cultivators lying in ambush. Ninety-nine percent of the cultivators who enter the ruins will die. This is a conspiracy by the five major demonic sects."
The emergence of the Three-Sword True Saint's Ruins is now the biggest event in the Eight Ancient Kingdoms, and it's being discussed everywhere.
But now this news has suddenly come out, causing a huge uproar.
"What? The Three-Sword True Saint doesn't exist? That's impossible! My brother's sister-in-law's father-in-law's junior brother's neighbor's son's fellow disciple said that his family's ancestors had fought against the Three-Sword True Saint."
"The soaring sword light and domineering sword intent emanating from those ruins could not possibly be fake."
"So many people go to the ruins. If 99% of them die inside, that's terrifying. I can't even imagine it."
When the news first came out, most people didn't believe it, and some were skeptical.
But soon, another piece of news came out.
"Six years ago, the Lion Camel Ridge ruins in the Northern Region; four years ago, the Hilly Plains Secret Realm in the Eastern Region; and two years ago, the Chechi Kingdom ruins in the Western Region—all were the same situation."
Many cultivators have entered the ruins south of Zheng, but none have come out yet, so no one knows what's inside.
Whether the first message is true or false is impossible to verify.
But these three ruins are things of the past. Whether they are real or fake, and what the situation is, can be found out with a little investigation.
As a result, various factions began to investigate, especially those families whose members had already entered the ruins, who were particularly concerned about this matter.
The results came soon.
As the first message stated.
Before these ruins were discovered, news about them had already spread in the vicinity.
Many cultivators went to the ruins, but very few came out alive, and all of them came back empty-handed.
One could be a coincidence, two could be accidental, but these are three already. Clearly, this is a conspiracy! And this conspiracy is still ongoing!
The results of this investigation immediately caused another uproar throughout the entire Eight Ancient Kingdoms.
"The facts are clear: the ruins south of Zheng, like these three, are most likely fake."
"How dare these demonic cultivators harm innocent cultivators like this!"
"Quickly! Tell the tribespeople not to go any further! It's very dangerous inside!"
"It's over, my senior brother has already gone, is he going to never come back!"
"My uncle, who had just entered the ruins, had already had his soul lamp extinguished. I thought he had just had an accident, but I never expected that he was killed by the demonic cultivators who were lying in ambush!!"
Some people were cursing the evil cult, while others were rushing to the ruins because many members of their faction had already entered.
The royal family of the Eight Ancient Kingdoms, the major powers within the kingdom, and the four great families of Broken Mountain City were all in a panic.
Even the True Saint Ancestors have mobilized, all rushing towards the entrance of the ruins in a swarm.
However, most of the people who entered the ruins earlier are already dead by now.
However, these true saints and ancestors still need to go in. If their descendants are not dead, they will rescue them; if they are dead, they will avenge them.
However, the ruins had already been tampered with by the five major demonic sects, so even if they were true saint level experts, they couldn't get in.
The Wang family patriarch, with his imposing figure, stood at the entrance of the ruins, looking at the other True Saints.
"My friends and I rushed here in such a hurry that we're sure your children have already been taken inside. We need to find a solution as soon as possible."
The You family patriarch said in a deep voice, "We can't go in, and those who do don't know what's inside. What should we do?"
None of those who can cultivate to the level of a true saint are kind-hearted.
The patriarch of the Wu Kingdom royal family said, "The space of the ruins should be very large. If the demonic cultivators set up traps after opening the ruins, they definitely won't have enough time."
"Therefore, I believe that they most likely entered the ruins in advance through other entrances, set up an ambush, and then had someone else open it here to lure people in."
"So we can look around to see if there are any other entrances."
His words were endorsed by the other True Saints, so they took the entrance to the ruins as the center and each person took a different direction, conducting a thorough search mile by mile outwards.
