There was no danger along the way. After pa.s.sing through the sea of Thunderbolt plasma, the scene in front of him suddenly became clear.
A huge, charred and barren world suddenly appeared in front of the cultivators. Because the ground was not spherical, they could see very far.
On this land that seemed to have been burned by flames, there were still countless giant buildings, each of which looked dark.
Although the land was barren, it didn’t mean that life had been cut off. On the contrary, it gave people a strange feeling.
It couldn’t be explained clearly, and it made people subconsciously raise their vigilance.
In addition, this pitch-black land was covered with pieces of seven-colored ice crystals. Some of them were erected into the sky, while others covered the earth.
Occasionally, he could see the bones of some giant beasts hidden in the charred ruins.
If one observed carefully, they would discover that there were actually many living creatures in the dark ruins.
Most of the living beings were just ordinary fierce beasts, and their strength could not be considered too strong.
They were like c.o.c.kroaches and ants, insignificant and unremarkable in this strange world.
At the same time, there were some areas with huge buildings surrounded by arrays.
Judging from its size and form, it must be a powerful cultivator organization.
The cultivators in loucheng were quite surprised. They didn’t expect that there were other cultivator organizations in this world.
After thinking about it carefully, it was very normal. Any forbidden area with rich resources would inevitably be fought over by cultivator organizations.
It was simply impossible for one person to enjoy it alone.
The hunting camp on the island was exclusively owned by Lou Cheng’s cultivators. Although they would face the threat of super creatures, they didn’t need to guard against compet.i.tion from other cultivators.
However, things were different now. When the cultivators in Lou city obtained resources, they were likely to be coveted by more enemies.
Thinking of the powerful races they had encountered on their way, the cultivators in Lou Cheng secretly raised their vigilance.
As they continued on their journey, some powerful auras would sweep past the group of cultivators from Lou city from time to time.
They were all Supreme experts from different races and were stronger than the peak divine generals.
Every time they encountered such a situation, the peak divine generals in the team would immediately respond.
This was to confirm their ident.i.ty and background. If the Lou Cheng cultivators were not strong enough, they would likely be blocked and attacked.
If they couldn’t win, they would either be enslaved or killed on the spot.
There was no such good thing as leaving money to pay for the pa.s.sage and then leaving safely.
Fortunately, the cultivators in Lou city were strong enough. The formation of a few peak-stage divine generals was enough to intimidate those cultivator organizations with bad intentions.
The exchange between them was only for a moment, and nothing else happened.
In the process of advancing, the cultivators of Lou Cheng discovered that many cultivators were excavating the huge crystals.
When seen from the sky, these crystals were like huge lakes and seas, flashing with a dazzling light.
Just like digging a mine, the cultivators would break these crystals and then dig out something from them.
For some reason, the cultivators in loucheng who were looking down from above couldn’t see the details.
Just as they were feeling puzzled, a cold voice suddenly rang in the ears of the cultivators in Lou Cheng.
“You must be wondering what these cultivators are doing. I’ll answer your questions now.
In fact, these cultivators were excavating the remains of ancient creatures.
These crystal-like things were actually the form of solidified laws. The remains of ancient creatures were wrapped in them, and it was very difficult to excavate.
The lamp oil that we usually use is refined from the remains of ancient creatures. Some special divine artifacts also use the remains of these ancient creatures.”
After hearing the peak-stage divine General’s explanation, the cultivators of Lou Cheng were enlightened and their hearts were filled with excitement.
To the cultivators in the building, ancient creatures were undefeatable existences. Even peak-stage divine generals had to stay away from them.
Back in the hunting camp, the remnant will of the ancient creature had made the cultivators in loucheng shiver in fear.
Most of the cultivators in loucheng had only heard of the terrifying ancient creatures.
Wanting to see it with his own eyes was simply a fool’s dream.
Now that he finally had the opportunity to see it for himself, it was only natural for him to be excited.
Compared to rule particles, the remains of ancient creatures had a greater refining value and had better effects.
The problem was that the remains of such ancient creatures were more difficult to obtain and had higher value, so the cultivators would settle for second best.
When refining the remains of ancient creatures, there was also a disadvantage. It was very easy to be affected by the remnant thoughts of ancient creatures.
If it was a cultivator of a lower realm, it would not take long for them to be controlled by the remnant thoughts of the ancient creatures.
Without sufficient strength, it was impossible to escape, and it would not take long for them to become puppet monsters.
Even G.o.d general-level experts had to be extra careful when refining to prevent themselves from being attacked by the remnant thoughts of ancient creatures.
Under the influence of the remnant will, they would even enter a sealed s.p.a.ce-time fragment and fight with ancient creatures.
The ancient creatures in the s.p.a.ce-time fragments were only afterimages and did not have the true strength of the main body.
But even so, he still had to be extra careful. After all, ancient creatures were unusually strong, and afterimages could not be underestimated.
If they were to lose the battle, it was very likely that they would be sealed in the s.p.a.ce-time fragment, with almost no possibility of escape.
In this forbidden land, cultivators would mysteriously disappear from time to time, and many of them were due to this reason.
“In the future, when you carry out missions, if you obtain the remains of ancient creatures, you must not refine them easily.
After refining this thing, you’ll indeed obtain great benefits, but it’s also possible that you’ll be consigned to eternal d.a.m.nation.
Therefore, the safest method was to slowly condense the nomological seed, then refine the nomological particles for cultivation.
It’s not too late for you to consider refining the remains of the ancient creatures when you become immortal generals and have enough strength.”
Hearing the peak-stage divine General’s warning, the cultivators of Lou Cheng immediately dispelled their thoughts.
Never touch things that shouldn’t be touched. This was a common rule of survival in the cultivation world. The end of overestimating one’s own ability was often to lose one’s life.
The more profound a cultivator’s cultivation base was, the more they would understand this principle.
Usually, only those rookies believed that their fate was in their own hands and not in the hands of the heavens. They wanted to go against the heavens and change their fate.
Of course, the final outcome was usually an extremely miserable death.
Just as the cultivators were secretly warning themselves not to have any improper thoughts, another cultivator from Lou Cheng asked with doubt.
“This ancient creature doesn’t look too big. It’s even smaller than some super creatures.
The larger the size of the creatures in the origin realm, the stronger they are. Could it be that when it comes to ancient creatures, they no longer follow the rules?”
In fact, many cultivators in Lou Cheng had the same idea, but they didn’t ask.
“Do you really think that ancient creatures are only this big?”
The peak-level immortal general said with a bit of emotion.
“These are only the remains of ancient creatures. The true ancient creatures are much larger than you can imagine.
These powerful ancient creatures are equivalent to miniature worlds. You and I are just ants compared to them.”
