Chapter 633: Ancient Trial Ground
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“How dare you!”
Anger flickered across the faces of Xiao Shenji and the others.
In an instant, dazzling law images, as brilliant as the blazing sun, rose behind each of the three.
They had never expected that after slaying Shao Yang and the others, Shen Ruyan would dare to attack them directly
In an instant, dazzling Dharma Forms, as brilliant as the blazing sun, rose behind each of the three.
“I say, you three, have you forgotten about our existence?”
Just as Xiao Shenji and the others were preparing to confront the incoming thunderbolt long spear, four immensely powerful auras suddenly surged towards them from behind.
The expressions of Xiao Shenji and his companions changed instantly.
“Damn it!”
Xiao Shenji and Wu Xin immediately turned around to counter the attack from Heavenly Lord Purple Flame and his group, while Luo Tianba thrust forward with his long spear.
There was a buzz.
Ripples violently surged through the void.
A spear light, akin to a black hole devouring all light, fiercely collided with the thunderbolt long spear.
Shriek-
Crack—
Above the Nine Heavens Realm.
A dark, ink-like spear light and the dazzling thunderbolt long spear formed a stark contrast of light and dark.
The space itself seemed barely able to withstand such immense force, quickly emitting a series of cracking sounds.
In this chorus of shattering noises.
The thunderbolt long spear violently tore through the darkness.
With a dominating and unrivaled posture, it rapidly annihilated the ink-like spear light, finally shooting towards Luo Tianba.
“You b*stard!”
Luo Tianba was first shocked, then burst into rage.
Countless light shadows surged behind him, eventually forming a giant clad in armor, with two long spears crossing and thrusting forward.
There was a rumble.
The thunderbolt long spear smashed directly onto the two giant spears.
In that instant, there was a flash of lightning and a clap of thunder.
Luo Tianba’s Dharma Form behind him wobbled.
But in the end, the two giant spears managed to withstand the full might of the thunderbolt long spear.
However, before he could even catch his breath.
Suddenly, a series of whooshing sounds came from the sky.
Looking up, there were seven or eight thunderbolt long spears, even more ferocious than the first, shooting towards Luo Tianba and the others.
“How…”
The faces of Luo Tianba, Xiao Shenji, and Wu Xin finally changed.
They had all seen the power of that first strike very clearly.
Especially Luo Tianba.
He believed that if he wanted to block one, or even two or three strikes, it should be no problem.
However, if there were seven or eight of them, not to mention him, even the strongest among them, Xiao Shenji, would not be able to withstand them.
Furthermore, Heavenly Lord Purple Flame and the others were eyeing them covetously.
How were they supposed to resist this?
“Let’s go!”
At this moment, the three of them no longer hesitated.
The void in front of them suddenly opened up and they were about to leave.
Shen Ruyan, who was below, seemed to have sensed something.
The lightning in her beautiful eyes suddenly surged.
She said coldly, “You want to leave? Then leave something for me first.”
As soon as she finished speaking, her hands quickly formed a seal.
There was a rumble.
Red, green, yellow, white, and blue light suddenly appeared behind her.
Then, the five lights suddenly condensed into one and turned into lightning, bombarding Xiao Shenji and the other two who were trying to escape through space.
How fast was the lightning?
As soon as the three of them entered the void, they felt a huge threat approaching.
This made their expressions change again.
Left with no choice, Soul Formation Dharma Forms behind the three of them appeared again.
At the same time, they took out their defensive Pure Yang True Treasures.
There was a loud bang.
The five-colored lightning suddenly exploded.
The defensive Pure Yang True Treasure Xiao Shenji and the other two took out quickly dimmed.
Even the Soul Formation Dharma Forms they manifested were constantly collapsing.
In the end, a five-colored mushroom cloud soared into the sky.
When everything dissipated, three defensive Pure Yang True Treasures were left in the Nine Heavens Realm.
However, the three defensive Pure Yang True Treasures were already dim.
It was obvious that they were damaged to varying degrees.
This scene not only shocked everyone present.
Even Heavenly Lord Purple Flame and the other three could not hide their shock.
They had long known that Shen Ruyan would be very strong after she reached Soul Formation.
However, they never expected Shen Ruyan to be powerful to such an extent.
Even Xiao Shenji and the other two, who were at the fourth level of Soul Formation, could not withstand her full-powered attack.
They chose to escape.
It was simply unbelievable.
“Thank you, seniors, for coming to help me. I will never forget this favor.”
When Heavenly Lord Purple Flame and the others descended from the Nine Heavens Realm, Shen Ruyan immediately went forward to express her gratitude.
She indeed had reasons to be grateful.
If it weren’t for the four of them protecting her just now, she would have had to use that Merit Golden Lotus to get through this human tribulation. Otherwise, she would most likely end up failing.
“Fellow Daoist Shen, you are really too polite.
As fellow cultivators from the Northern Border, we should naturally help and support each other,” said the four Heavenly Lords with a smile.
However, Shen Ruyan insisted firmly.
She exchanged a glance with Jiang Chengxuan who was standing by her side.
Each understood the other’s intentions from their eyes.
Shen Ruyan continued, “This time, my Jiang family was fortunate to discover that super-large spirit stone mine and the ancient ruin.
As for the spirit stone mine, how about our five families divide it equally? And for the ancient ruin, we can explore it together.”
Shen Ruyan was clear that genuine gratitude was less about words and more about concrete actions.
What she offered now was her attitude towards the four.
Clearly, Heavenly Lord Purple Flame and the other three knew that as well.
They also exchanged glances, and after reaching some consensus, Heavenly Lord Purple Flame said with a smile:
“Fellow Daoist Shen, that spiritual stone mine is located in your Jiang family’s territory. It should belong to your Jiang family.
We won’t interfere with that, but as for the ancient ruin…”
At that point, Heavenly Lord Purple Flame and the other three could not help but look in the direction of the ruin.
“If I’m not mistaken, that ancient ruin is what those in the Central Plain mentioned, it should be an ancient trial ground, once used by a major sect to train their younger disciples.”
“Ancient trial ground?” Shen Ruyan’s eyes lit up.
At that moment, countless memories flashed through her mind.
Finally, she said, “Is there some sort of restriction there?
Can cultivators like us, who have reached Soul Formation, not enter?”
Heavenly Lord Purple Flame nodded at Shen Ruyan’s words.
“If things go as expected, that should be the case.
It seems that Fellow Daoist Shen has some understanding of such places.”
Heavenly Lord Purple Flame, Heavenly Lord Infinite Ocean, Heavenly Lord Everlasting Mountain, Heavenly Lord Xuan Yang, and Shen Ruyan looked at each other.
Then, they all rushed towards the entrance of the ancient ruin.
Buzz!
As they expected.
Just as their figures nearly reached the entrance of the ruin, a force embodying certain rules formed a circle of gentle ripples, blocking them all from entering.
“It seems that this place is indeed as we guessed. Perhaps only cultivators below Soul Formation can enter.”
Heavenly Lord Infinite Ocean said regretfully.
Such a place, if he said he had no interest in it, that would obviously be a lie.
Unfortunately, due to their cultivation realm, he and the others, including Shen Ruyan, obviously no longer had the opportunity.
However, Jiang Chengxuan and the other cultivators, who had not yet ascended to Soul Formation, might not be repelled by the ancient trial ground.
Jiang Chengxuan looked at the entrance of the ruin, pondering for a moment before speaking. “Then let me go in first to take a look.”
“Husband…”
Shen Ruyan’s eyes clearly showed a hint of worry.
After all, no one could guarantee whether there would be any fatal dangers inside.
If Jiang Chengxuan were to enter, what if he encountered an accident?
Wouldn’t it be dangerous?
Seeming to perceive his partner’s concern, Jiang Chengxuan couldn’t help but smile reassuringly:
“Don’t worry, wife. You know very well what I am capable of.
Even if something unexpected happens, I have the ability to handle it.
Besides, since this ruin has appeared near our Jiang family, we must clarify what it is, no matter what.”
Hearing Jiang Chengxuan’s words, Shen Ruyan knew she really couldn’t stop him.
She thought for a moment and said, “Then you must be careful. If you can’t, come out first. We can discuss and handle any situation that arises.”
“Alright!”
Jiang Chengxuan nodded.
After saying this, he greeted the four Heavenly Lords present and then no longer hesitated.
His figure flashed, and he swiftly moved towards the entrance of the ruin.
This time, the ruin seemed to recognize that Jiang Chengxuan was not a Soul Formation cultivator and indeed did not stop him from entering.
A twisting ripple swept over, and Jiang Chengxuan’s figure suddenly disappeared from everyone’s sight.
Buzz!
It felt as if he had passed through some kind of membrane.
However, his vision seemed to be obscured by a mysterious power.
Then, a mechanical voice echoed in his ears.
“Detection of a trial participant entering, meeting the standards of the trial. Do you wish to participate in the trial?”
Just as he heard this, the voice in Jiang Chengxuan’s ears suddenly sounded again.
However, this time, the voice carried a different meaning – it seemed eager, hesitant, and confused.
But ultimately, it reverted to the mechanical tone.
“Attention! Attention! Attention!
Detection of no controller in this area. Trial participant, do you wish to challenge for controller privileges?
Please respond within ten breaths.
Ten, nine, eight, seven…”
Suddenly, a somewhat urgent countdown voice rang again in Jiang Chengxuan’s ears..
