Day 153 of the Black Mist Calendar.
Flame City was in chaos.
At the same time, the secluded tribes in the Hundred Thousand Mountains learned about the opening of the Flame Clan ruins.
On this day, someone at the entrance of the ruins discovered the presence of a seemingly Spirit Realm expert, indicating that news about the Flame Clan ruins was spreading far and wide, with its influence continuously expanding!
That day, Lu Ming spent the entire day cultivating within the ruins, and nothing unusual happened.
Day 155 of the Black Mist Calendar.
Someone bypa.s.sed Flame City and found Spirit Realm herbs in the forest behind it. These herbs were rarely found in the outside world.
When this news spread, it caused a great stir.
It also informed everyone that while there were many opportunities within Flame City, the opportunities in the forest behind it should not be underestimated.
This slightly reduced the conflicts within Flame City.
On thei58th day of the Black Mist Calendar.
In Flame City, the Divine Dao Gang and the Black Feather Clan clashed once again.
However, this time, the leader of the Divine Dao Gang, Meijixi, somehow found a level one Spirit Realm expert, who engaged Apelo in battle, leading to further losses for the already dwindling Black Feather Clan.
That night, some areas of the Flame City clearly heard Apelo howling madly, “1 swear I will not rest until 1 take revenge!”
When treasures are at stake, conflicts are bound to arise.
Once conflicts begin, karmic entanglements inevitably follow.
If karma appeared, trouble would come endlessly—this was the root of Lu Ming’s aversion to risky endeavors.
However, there was a saying that people died for wealth and birds died for food…
This was all part of the logic of how the world operated.
Day 161 of the Black ATist Calendar.
A Spirit Realm battle erupted once again in Flame City.
Based on a rough estimate, there were as many as four Spirit Realm experts partic.i.p.ating in the battle. One of them was even at the third level of the Spirit Realm!
The presence of so many Spirit Realm experts intensified the conflicts within Flame City, causing many weaker individuals to leave Flame City and seek opportunities in the forest.
Day 165 of the Black Mist Calendar.
Meijixi coveted the profits of the business district outside Flame City and led the Divine Dao Gang members to invade this place. An unknown Spirit Realm expert took action and issued a warning to Meijixi. From then on, this business district became the publicly recognized safe zone within the Flame Clan ruins.
Please go out and resolve any grudges. If you don’t follow the rules of the business district, you will definitely suffer the revenge of a Spirit Realm expert!
This matter even caught Lu Ming’s attention to some extent. After Fala’s investigation, she confirmed the ident.i.ty of the Spirit Realm expert—the chief of a small clan, the Rao Clan from the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
Day 171 of the Black Mist Calendar.
The inner city gate of Flame City was broken through.
Nearly ten Spirit Realm experts entered the inner city area of Flame City, and a fierce battle broke out shortly thereafter.
It was rumored that a Source Realm Source Power Skill had appeared in the inner city of Flame City, igniting conflicts from various factions.
It was because three Spirit Realm experts had died in battle and Apelo was severely injured.
On the 178th day of the Black Mist Calendar.
The hand-drawn map of Flame City was publicly sold by the Rao Clan.
According to the map, the entire Flame City was divided into three parts: the Imperial City District, the Inner City District, and the Outer City District.
Among them, the Outer City District had produced Spirit Realm Source Power skills before. The Inner City District had revealed Source Realm Source Power skills. So far, no one had entered the Imperial City District, which was highly likely to contain Ancient Realm Source Power Skills!
This speculation, once spread, immediately elevated the reputation of the Flame Clan Ruins.
At the same time, a subtle piece of information quietly circulated.
The Flame Clan, once a prominent clan in its time, had stood on the wrong side during a major calamity, resulting in the seven G.o.ds of the Flame Clan being besieged and ultimately vanquished.
The remnants of the Flame Clan immediately retreated to the Hundred Thousand Mountains, disappearing without a trace.
Based on the records found in Flame City, it was revealed that this ruins was where the remnants of the Flame Clan had hidden at that time. The ruins contained a wealth of Flame Clan legacies.
Treasures, Ancient Realm Source Power skills, divine medicines, and everything else!
Not only that…
One of the seven G.o.ds of the Flame Clan seemed to have left his remains and inheritance in this ruin!
The divine inheritance and the true body of a deity instantly propelled the reputation of the Flame Clan ruins to its peak!
More explorers swarmed over.
Rough estimates suggested that at this moment, there were over a million intelligent beings within the ruins of the Flame Clan!
And more newcomers were arriving continuously!
Day 180 of the Black Mist Calendar.
A Spirit Realm expert found a weakness in the Imperial City area’s restrictions and widely invited heroes to break through the restrictions.
As for how to split the treasures after breaking through the restrictions, it would be up to their abilities.
There was news that it might not take more than twenty days for the gates of the Imperial City District to open to everyone.
And within it lay the divine inheritance!
On this day, Jing Yi led his men through the forest and arrived at the end of the ruins!
Regardless of whether the Flame Clan ruins were built by Ancient Realm experts or deities, and no matter how vast and boundless this ruin was, it was undeniable that there was always a border…
On one side of the border was the square where the entrance to the ruins stood.
The border opposite was under Jing Yi’s feet!
With over ten subordinates and Jing Cong in tow, Jing Yi looked ahead.
Before them lay an endless void storm!
The colorful and dazzling void storm was a sight to behold, but anyone with a little common sense knew that once a living being stepped into it, there would only be one outcome—they would be torn to pieces by the terrifying spatial turbulence!
Jing Yi remained in this dangerous place for a long, long time until he heard Jing Cong’s voice from behind.
“Father… I don’t understand…”
He really could not keep up with his father’s train of thought.
Whether it was the “Zombie Transformation Plan” that had clearly fooled him previously or everything that had happened within the Flame Clan ruins now, it all left Jing Cong baffled.
Upon hearing his son’s words, Jing Yi turned around and smiled.
“You don’t understand?”
“Yes, Father, I don’t understand…”
“Actually, you really don’t need to understand.”
As soon as Jing Yi finished speaking, he reached out and, in one swift motion, pierced through Jing Cong’s chest, ripping out his heart from within his chest cavity!
This shocking scene of a father killing his son completely stunned everyone present, except Jing Yi.
He flicked his finger and flicked Jing Cong’s heart into the void storm.
He turned to look at his subordinates.
He smiled and said, “You’re all carefully selected by me… I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but you all have a common characteristic.”
Those who reacted slowly were still in a daze. Those who reacted quickly had already turned around and prepared to leave Jing Yi!
However, Jing Yi, who had reached level nine of the Physique Realm, was a dominating presence among these dozen people!
His figure quickly flickered as one heart after another was ripped out!
After killing everyone and throwing all their hearts into the void storm, Jing Yi muttered to himself and explained the question he had just posed.
“Your clan was once the great enemy of the Flame Clan!”
Faint flame-shaped patterns emerged from Jing Yi’s forehead.
At this moment, Jing Yi raised his hands high and roared at the void turbulence!
“With the blood of our clan!”
“With the blood of our enemies!”
“With the blood of countless clans!”
“For the sacrifice!”
“Your descendant invokes your divine name!”
“The Flame Clan’s G.o.d Jing!”
He knelt on the ground, his gaze fanatical!
In the distant void, a dilapidated palace, braving the raging void turbulence, approached from afar and finally arrived in front of Jing Yi..
