<h4>Chapter 1376 – Dao Sect Ruins</h4>
That enormous bright flower had always been floating beside Gu Xianjun, and the strength that An Zheng had used to attack waspletely reflected back. However, this terrifying force was being used by An Zheng. He borrowed the force of the impact to st all the reflected force back into the Red Cloud Valley.
Under sucowerful chain of attacks, a huge pit copsed inside the Red Cloud Valley. It was pitch ck, no one knew what was hidden inside.
Just as An Zheng allowed Du Shoushou and the others to enter, Tan Shanse rushed in first.
When Gu Xianjun saw someone entering, she actually ignored An Zheng and teleported straight towards the hole. An Zheng was not willing tog behind, and increased his speed as well.
The entire Red Cloud Hall had been destroyed, and not even a single piece ofplete brick could be seen. The hole was very big, and it was abouundred meters in diameter. Dust was puffing out from the hole, and his vision became blurry. Tan Shanse had already rushed in, and no one could be seen. Gu Xianjun rushed to the edge of the hole and muttered to herself for a moment, then leaped down.
An Zheng, Du Shoushou and the others also arrived at the edge of the pit, and looked down, but could not see anything. When the ground copsed, arge amount of dust fell down, causing the dust to be too heavy. An Zheng pped down with his palm, causing smoke and dust to be pushed out in all directions. He could vaguely see that it was very spacious down there. In addition, he could faintly make out the color of thenterns below.
“I’ll go down first. You guys wait for my signal.”
The Reverse Scale Armor s on An Zheng’s body appeared and covered his entire body. The eye part of the mask was made of some unknown crystal. It looked like a scarlet color and was as solid as the armor. However, if one looked through the crystal, their vision would be even wider.
The ck armor with purplish golden lines around its eyes was blood-red, giving it an iparably domineering aura while carrying an ancient beauty. An Zheng who was wearing a Reverse Scale Armor robe jumped down from the edge of the hole andnded on the ground with a bang. The ground that he stepped on felt like it was extremely hard ground, it should have been made manually, it was very hard and smooth. An Zheng looked around him but he was no longer able to see Tan Shanse and Gu Xianjun. He raised his hand and a pearl that was emitting a gentle white light flew out. Seeing An Zheng’s signal, the rest of them also jumped into the pit.
“What secrets is the Red Cloud Valley hiding? Seems like there are a lot of people eyeing it.”
Chen Shaobai looked around, the ce seemed very empty. The ce looked like an iplete underground pce, and it was obviously there to deal with some catastrophe. Everything here can be described in two words … Firm.
The entrance to the hole that An Zheng smashed open should be the entrance and exit left behind by the people of the Red Cloud Valley that had secretly constructed the underground pce, and it had not been sealed yet. He raised his head and looked up. Not only was the roof made from a mixture of smithing materials, but there was also a veryplicated defensive spell formation. This rune was able to divert the force of the attack through countless branches into the ground, ensuring that the roof wouldn’t copse.
Every brick on the ground was five meters square, which showed how sturdy they were. Furthermore, there was an identical rune array formation on the ground.
“Even if it’s just a single blow from the Immortal Emperor, he should still be able to withstand it, right?”
“How could a mere Red Cloud Valley create such arge-scale defensive underground pce? Even if you were to use up all of the Red Cloud Valley’s strength, it would still not be possible to build even a tenth or even a tenth of this ce. ”
“Yeah, even if the Red Cloud Valley and other great powers built this ce together, they still wouldn’t have the ability to do so. “Not to mention these sects, even if all the big sects in the entire Nine Regions of the mortal world were to gather together to build this underground pce, just the rune array and the materials needed to make the defense cannot do it.”
“This could have been not built by the Red Cloud Valley at all, but discovered by the people from the Red Cloud Valley.”
An Zheng said: “Previously, there was a small Taoist temple here, and it is said that the Taoist Ancestor had stopped here before. The master of this monastery was a disciple of a Daofather. If the rumors were true, then the underground pce might have been built a long time ago. Red Cloud Valley just happened to discover themter on, but was powerless to continue with his construction. ”
“How many secrets does the Dao Sect possess?”
This ce was simply too big. To be honest, even the Heavenly Awakening Sect would not be able to create it with all their might. Forget about Heavenly Awakening Sect having an Artifact Master like him, forget about the fact that Heavenly Awakening Sect was the richest sect in the Nine Prefectures of the mortal world, he couldn’t even create one percent of this ce.
“This ce seems to be prepared for the apocalypse.”
Chen Shaobai said: “Maybe that disciple of the Dao Ancestor sensed a cmity that could destroy the world?”
“The time doesn’t match.”
An Zheng looked forward: “They should be rushing inside. Tan Shanse seems to know more than us, even Gu Xianjun knows a little.”
An Zheng, Chen Shaobai, Monkey, and Du Shoushou protected Qu Liuxi in the center. The five of them explored the interior, borrowing the Night Pearls on the pirs around them to clearly see their surroundings. In the eyes of cultivators, these Night Pearls were worthless, but in the eyes of mortals, every single one of them was priceless. If they all dug it out, it might cause the mortal Night Pearl’s value to copse.
This underground pce was just likuge square. For the time being, they could not see the passage to other ces. As they explored, other than the pirs that the two of them might not be able to carry, there was nothing else.
After walking for a while, he still could not see the end. This showed just how big the underground pce was. Even if he were to specte on the size of the pce, amodating tens of thousands of people was nothing.
“They want to save them.”
An Zheng suddenly understood: “Even though there iime discrepancy, there is no longer a need to care about whether the time is right or wrong. The disciple of the Daofather probably knew that this ce was going to be destroyed, and so he began to secretly build this ce. If there was no sect in the Nine Prefectures that could build this underground pce, then … “What about the Dao Sect?”
Everyone was stunned for a moment.
In this era, the Dao Sect was not considered aplete sect inheritance at all. None of the cultivators of the Central ins could deny that they were disciples of the Dao Sect. This was because the path of cultivation originated from the Dao Sect. Not to mention the people of the Central ins, even the Buddhist sects of the Western Regions were no exception. Many things in the Buddhist Sect were learned and evolved from the Dao Sect.
Therefore, there were many pious Dao Sect disciples in this world. The various sects and rogue cultivators were all Dao Sect disciples. As for those inheritors of the true disciples of the Daofathers who had always been hidden from the world … The power he wielded would definitely be iparably strong.
The Daofather had many disciples who had received personal guidance from him. These people should have a special way tomunicate with each other. If they knew each other and they had been secretlymunicating with each other all this time, then the amount of energy gathered was simply too terrifying to imagine.
“But even so, they still haven’t fixed it.”
“The scale is too big. They want to save many people, many more people, to the point where their strength is insufficient.”
An Zheng and the others could not help but admire him in their hearts.
“In front!”
An Zheng suddenly felt a fluctuation of Qi in front, and a few people immediately rushed over. It was clear that Tan Shanse and Gu Xianjun had just fought before. The two of them separated temporarily as they looked at each other in alert and also took precautions with An Zheng and the others.
There was something that looked like an altar in that area. It was very big, and could hold hundreds of people standing on top of it. The most frightening thing was that there were many robed men kneeling on the altar … However, he didn’t know how long he had been dead for. They seemed to be kneeling in disorder around a stone pir in the center of the altar. However, if one looked carefully, they would be able to see that the ces where they were kneeling were very special. If one looked down from directly above, they would see that they were arranged ording to the Eight Trigrams Diagram.
These people had already been dead for who knows how long. Their Daoist robes must have been very special, so they weren’t damaged, only covered with dust. The body inside the daoist robe was now only bones, without any flesh. The stone pir in the middle hadplicated patterns on it, as well as many Dao Sect secret charms. There were even pieces of talisman paper stuck on the crucial points. He had no idea what the material of these talismans was, but they were actually still intact.
“Everyone is here.”
Tan Shanse squinted his eyes and looked around, then looked at the kneeling corpses.
“These unfilial disciples!”
His tone was somewhat contemptuous, as well as angry.
“You’re nothing.”
Chen Shaobai could not help but scold angrily: “You have the qualifications to criticize them.”
Tan Shanse slightly raised his chin: “I am the most qualified one... Forget it, what’s the point of telling you all this? This ce has nothing to do with you, so leave immediately. Otherwise, this ce will be your grave as well. ”
Du Shoushou snorted: “Stop bragging, you’re really confident that instead of directly attacking, you’re going to let us leave?”
Tan Shanse said arrogantly, “You two know nothing about this ce, and you know nothing about the power here.”
He slowly approached the altar. His footsteps were strange, and every step he took was abnormal. Every step he took, the ce where his feetnded would light up. The moment he stepped onto the steps of the altar, the entire altar began to emit a soft white light, an indescribably holy light. Then, the stone pir also lit up. The runes on it began to move, just like the Milky Way.
Just then, the entire roof lit up, densely packed with amethyshat An Zheng was very familiar with. These amethyst formed the entire universe, and within the stars that filled the sky, a gigantic vortex appeared, attracting everyone’s attention.
That ce used the most amethyst, so it looked the brightest. And the universe’s myriad stars actually revolved around this vortex, countless nebe forming an iparablyrge neb.
In the middle of the whirlpool, there was a flickering,rgest amethyst. However, it was a scarlet light that caused one’s heart to palpitate.
It seemed that there was some peerless evil being inside.
