Chapter 188: Well, Isn’t This It?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
On the 148th day of the Black Mist Calendar.
Apelo led his clansmen deep into the Black Gra.s.slands.
On these black gra.s.slands, Apelo saw the Nanxiang people who had settled here, and his expression twitched in pain!
This was because those who had undergone tribulation, after being poisoned by the black gra.s.s had already been tainted and could not be used…
Helpless, Apelo could only lead his clansmen to continue pursuing in the direction of the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
On the 149th day of the Black Mist Calendar.
Apelo led his clansmen to Archean City.
In the ancient city of Archean, Apelo did not find any traces of the Nanxiang people.He concluded that the Nanxiang people did not pa.s.s through the ancient city of Archean but had entered the Hundred Thousand Mountains directly.
Day 150 of the Black Mist Calendar.
After a brief rest in Archean City, Apelo led his clansmen into the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
He had also heard the news of the Flame Clan’s ruins in Archean City, but Apelo had seen too many of such baseless rumors.
His goal for this trip was clear. He wanted to capture those who had undergone the tribulation and obtain the qualifications to ascend to the heavens. So, he did not take the matter of the Flame Clan ruins to heart at all.
Day 151 of the Black Mist Calendar.
Just as Apelo was still searching for the Nanxiang people, Jing Yi’s plan from the Heaven Saber Gang had already arrived at a critical juncture!
On that day, at noon.
The 10,000 members of the Heaven Saber Gang gathered outside the city, and their formation was majestic but somewhat disorganized. It was not an exaggeration to say that they were a mob.
Only Jing Yi and Jing Cong from the nearby gang members, looked somewhat elite.
Jing Yi and Jing Cong’s races were unknown. From their appearances, they looked somewhat similar to humans. However, they were much taller, with a height of about two meters. They had well-defined facial features, and a handsome appearance, indicating a good bloodline.
Among them, Jing Yi was at level nine of the Physique Realm.
At the age of 18, Jing Cong already had the strength of the third level of the Physique Realm—among the young generation of Archean City, Jing Cong was undoubtedly a remarkable figure!
Seeing that the gang members had already gathered, Jing Yi waved his hand.
Jing Cong shouted loudly, “The time has come! Brothers, let’s go!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the members of the Heaven Saber Gang advanced majestically, heading towards the Hundred Thousand Mountains. However, another voice sounded from the city.
“Brother Jing, you’re making such a big fuss. It seems that you have big plans…” A familiar voice made the father and son, Jing Yi and Jing Cong turn around, and they saw 6,000 to 7,000 people walking out of the city gate in a ma.s.sive procession. At the forefront was an elderly dwarf.
The dwarf was about one meter tall, had green skin, and a pointed nose.
His large eyes were sharp and intelligent, giving him a shrewd appearance.
This person was the leader of the Divine Dao Gang: Meijixi.
At this moment, when he heard the hidden meaning in Meijixi’s words, Jing Yi smiled.
“It’s nothing more than the matter of the Flame Clan ruins… Why, Is it possible that my old friend doesn’t know about this? Recently, this matter has spread like wildfire in our Archean City.”
Meijixi was annoyed, but he did not show it on his face.
He knew in his heart that the matter of the Flame Clan ruins was completely fake and was purely a smokescreen released by Jing Yi.
However, no matter how he thought about it, he could not figure out Jing Yi’s true intentions.
As a result, just as the Heaven Saber Gang was about to set off today, Meijixi directly brought people over.
He just wanted to follow and see for himself what Jing Yi was really up to!
“I’ve heard about the Flame Clan ruins. However, I’ve been struggling to find the exact location of the Flame Clan ruins.”
With a raised eyebrow, Meijixi continued, “What? Does my dear brother mean to say that you’ve found the location of the Flame Clan ruins?”
Before Jing Yi could say anything, Meijixi smiled and said, “Then Old Brother me, will have to go take a look and see how magnificent and majestic this Flame Clan ruins are!”
Jing Cong frowned.
He felt that this matter could not be disturbed by the Divine Dao Gang.
Just as he was about to say something, he heard his father chuckle, “Sure! It’s rare for my dear old brother to be in the mood. Why don’t we go take a look together?”
Jing Cong and Meijixi were both stunned.
They did not understand what Jing Yi was planning.
However, Jing Yi did not explain much. He just turned around and led his gang members away.
On the spot, Mejixi’s expression was uncertain.
After a long time, he waved his hand.
“Follow them!”
As the local powers of Archean City, Jing Yi and Meijixi, the Heaven Saber Gang and the Divine Dao Gang, were very familiar with the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
A group of nearly 20,000 people entered the Hundred Thousand Mountains in a grand procession, with a large number of Archean City residents wanting to watch the excitement following behind.
In addition, there were also the explorers from Archean City who had already entered the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
It was not an exaggeration to say that at this moment, half of the people in Archean City were inside the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
There were no fewer than 200,000 people in total!
However, the Hundred Thousand Mountains were vast and boundless. It was not a problem for it to swallow a mere 200,000 people.
They were like a drop of water that quickly merging into the Hundred Thousand Mountains, causing only slight waves.
That night, in the evening.
After half a day of traveling, Jing Yi led the group to a desolate ancient city.
Behind him, Mejixi took two steps forward and stood not far from Jing Yi.
He glanced at Jing Yi. Although Meijixi did not quite understand what scheme Jing Yi was planning, he still had to say a few words to irk Jing Yi, as they were old enemies and rivals.
“Brother Jing, we’ve been on the road for half a day, but we haven’t seen any sign of the Flame Clan ruins.”
At this point, Mejixi’s voice suddenly became loud and clear, spreading in all directions.
“It’s just a guess, a mere guess.”
“This so-called Flame Clan ruins can’t be a lie that Brother Jing fabricated, right?”
Jing Yi turned around and looked at Meijixi with a smiling expression.
“Why would I lie?”
Mejixi’s expression suddenly turned cold, “How would I know?!”
“However, what you want is nothing more than to become the City Lord of Archean City or let your Heaven Saber Gang monopolize Archean City…”
With that said, Mejixi leaned closer to Jing Yi’s ear with a dark expression and whispered,
“With me around, you can forget about playing these tricks!”
“My dear brother, I’m determined to follow you this time! Wherever you go, I’ll go. 1 want to see what trump card you can take out!”
Jing Yi’s expression remained unchanged.
Jing Cong, however, looked furious.
If this old thing stuck to Jing Yi like glue, it would probably be difficult for their “Zombie Conversion Plan” to execute smoothly!
Jing Cong cursed Meijixi ten thousand times in his heart. From the corner of his eye, he saw that his father’s expression was still unchanged.
Jing Yi merely glanced at the sky and then at the distant ruins of the ancient city.
After a moment, Jing Yi smiled.
“It’s begun.”
Just as he finished speaking, a beam of light shot up into the sky, illuminating the night!
The beam of light soared into the sky with astonishing momentum!
Everyone present was shocked beyond belief, except for Jing Yi, who pointed at the beam of light with a smug smile and whispered softly,
“Behold, the Flame Clan ruins.”
“Isn’t this it?”
As Jing Yi’s words fell, the beam of light suddenly distorted and changed.
Soon, a faintly visible door opened at the bottom of the beam of light, as if it was connected to another world!
Neither Jing Cong nor Meijixi could take their eyes off this scene.
Because they were certain.
The beam of light before them was indeed a ruin!
Moreover, it was a super ruin of immense scale and incredible heritage!
