Meijixi was inexplicably shocked. He turned to look at Jing Yi, who appeared calm as a breeze, and could not help but swallow hard.
Countless pieces of information had verified one fact—the Heaven Saber Gang had not found any ruins. The so-called Flame Clan ruins were merely a smokescreen created by Jing Yi.
However, at this moment, a super-large ruin had appeared before his eyes, real and not an illusion.
Regardless of whether this ruin was the Flame Clan ruins, it proved that Jing Yi’s words were not baseless…
Jing Cong was even more puzzled by the situation.
Two days ago, his father had even told him about their plan to lure explorers in the city with the ruse of Flame Tribe ruins and turn them into zombie soldiers.
The matter of the ruins was fake, but the scheme was real!
However, now the fake had turned into reality, then what was the real situation?
Jing Yi ignored the gazes and thoughts of others.
He just tilted his head and slowly admired the ruins in front of him. After that, his expression turned serious and he said loudly.
“These ruins are the ruins of the Flame Clan that my Heaven Saber Gang mentioned!”
“There are numerous opportunities inside. Those who are fated will obtain them!”
“Considering the vast interior of the ruins, with just over ten thousand members of my Heaven Saber Gang, we cannot completely seize these ruins. In order to keep the benefits to ourselves, I, Jing Yi, will share these ruins with all of you.”
With that said, Jing Yi turned to face everyone behind him and made an inviting gesture.
No one made a move…
Perhaps they had yet to wake up from the surprise of the ruins appearing.
This made Jing Yi smile and said, “Since everyone doesn’t want to be the pathfinders, then let our Heaven Saber Gang handle it.”
“Members of the Heaven Saber Gang, listen up! Enter the ruins!”
As soon as he finished speaking, before the gang members could react, Jing Yi took the lead, pulling Jing Cong and striding towards the entrance of the ruins.
Until the two of them completely disappeared through the door of the ruins…
Behind him, the members of the Heaven Saber Gang hesitantly followed their leader’s pace.
However, Meijixi was stunned.
“What’s going on?”
If that old thief Jing Yi said that there were ruins, and now there really were ruins!
Initially, Meijixi thought that there might be significant risks inside the ruins. But Jing Yi had directly entered the ruins with his son and all of his gang ahead of everyone else…
Meijixi was cunning and had many thoughts.
“Could Jing Yi have set up some traps inside the ruins?”
However, before Mejisi could think carefully, the explorers who did not belong to any faction behind him had already rushed toward the entrance of the ruins in groups.
This group of people did not care about the circ.u.mstances…
Enter the ruins, seize opportunities.
After all, what explorers sought was wealth.
Since they had embarked on such a risky venture, there was no need to overthink it; they just needed to charge in and seize the opportunity.
Before Meijixi could react, countless residents of Archean City had already rushed towards the ruins.
And from behind, more and more people rushed over endlessly!
When the ruins opened, the towering beam of light was a spectacle that caught everyone’s attention.
The beam of light pierced through the heavens and was extremely eye-catching. Almost everyone in the vicinity of the Hundred Thousand Mountains witnessed this scene.
This attracted the explorers who had been searching for ruins in the mountains.
It also attracted Apelo, who was searching for the Nanxiang people in the mountains.
Somewhere in the wilderness of the Hundred Thousand Mountains, Apelo, watching the beam of light rising into the sky in the distance and did not dissipate for a long time, gradually furrowed his brows.
“What’s going on?”
After a brief moment of contemplation, Apelo had an answer.
“Ruins? The ruins of the Flame Clan that were rumored in Archean City?”
It seemed so…
He had never expected this matter would turn out to be true.
But now that he knew it was true, it was not too late.
“Everyone, get up. Let’s go too.”
Without thinking too much, Apelo made this decision.
It was true that tribulation transcenders were very important.
However, even if he had the qualifications to ascend to the heavens, he still had to compete for a divine position with other ascenders. Without some capabilities, it would not work.
Therefore, the qualification to ascend to the heavens was very important. His own strength was also very important!
At this moment, the Flame Clan ruins had opened. There were definitely opportunities and treasures in the ruins. It was fine if Apelo did not know much about this, but now that the ruins had appeared right under his nose, there was no reason to turn a blind eye to it.
In the direction of the Southern Mountains.
Lu Ming, who was about to rest, also opened his eyes and looked in the direction where the Flame Clan ruins had opened.
At this moment, he was at home and could not see the beam of light initially.
What awakened Lu Ming was the unusual activity on his attribute panel.
First, there was a trembling sensation that seemed to come from his soul, causing Lu Ming to instinctively open his attribute panel. He saw that the attribute panel was constantly emitting a faint light.
The radiance guided Luming in a hazy manner.
“Go over there.”
“There’re opportunities!”
This was the first time the attribute panel had given Lu Ming such clear and direct feedback!
Or rather, a request!
This made Lu Ming frown.
After some thought, Lu Ming put on his clothes and walked out of his home in the middle of the night.
The towering and non dissipating beam of light, pointing directly into the sky, was Lu Ming’s most prominent coordinate.
As Lu Ming witnessed the beam of light, the tremor brought by the system immediately intensified.
This made Lu Ming pull up his hood to cover his face. He exerted strength in his legs and sped up.
About an hour later, Lu Ming arrived at the scene.
A vast crowd filled his vision..
Numerous individuals of different races and shapes, with red eyes, entered the door opened by the beam of light, resembling gamblers at a casino table.
This confused Lu Ming.
Lu Ming paused in the crowd for a moment, listening in all directions, and soon nodded in realization.
“The ruins of the Flame Clan…”
“The ruins have opened here…”
“So, there’s opportunity for me inside? Moreover, it’s an opportunity recognized by the system. Or is it something the system needs?”
That was most likely the case.
However, whether to go or not was another question.
Everyone knew Lu Ming’s personality. He had absolutely no inclination to engage in anything dangerous.
However, the abnormality of the system piqued Lu Ming’s curiosity. The system was the most crucial a.s.set that allowed Luming to survive in the post-apocalyptic and Black Mist regions. Any unusual behavior from the system had to be taken seriously!
After thinking for a long time, Lu Ming made up his mind.
He turned around and left.
However, two hours later, Lu Ming returned to the same spot with Velo.
Velo blended into the crowd and relied on the Corpse Crystals’ attack to start gathering information. About an hour later, Lu Ming watched Velo walk into the entrance of the ruins. After waiting for about two hours, Velo emerged from the entrance of the ruins and returned to Lu Ming’s side.
“It’s very s.p.a.cious inside and there’s no danger.”
“At least there’s no danger near the entrance of the ruins.”
Lu Ming nodded in understanding and slowly walked towards the door of the ruins with Velo at a slow pace.
After weighing the pros and cons during this period of time, Lu Ming had devised a plan.
He had Velo gather information for him and a.s.sess the danger inside the ruins. If there was any danger, they would turn back.
If there was no danger, Lu Ming would venture inside to take a look.
As for whether they would encounter further risks inside, he would have to take it one step at a time.
In short, opportunities were secondary, while staying alive was the priority!
Lu Ming was not a desperado. There was no need for him to risk his life for money..
