"Everyone, I believe that all of you can see that this sacrificial altar is the place where we have been searching for the treasure." Echa took a deep breath and said slowly.
Everyone looked at him when they heard him.
"Cough cough … City Lord E, is this the legendary place where the treasure of the Great Ruins is hidden?" Qin Yuan coughed and asked doubtfully.
Echa nodded and said, "Everyone should have felt how powerful the aura of blood and flesh here is. Isn't this a great secret treasure for us Mystics?
Moreover, the skeleton that I mentioned earlier is also in the blood pool, "Echa nodded and said.
Everyone cried out in surprise when they heard him and couldn't help but look at the sacrificial blood pool again.
Although Chen Yang looked in the same direction as everyone else, there was a hint of vigilance in his eyes.
Han Li tried to take a look. Even with his eyesight, he was only able to see a thick layer of white bones beneath the roiling blood. He was unable to determine whether or not the corpse that Eggy had mentioned was among them.
"City Lord E, the skeleton is in the blood pool. Are we going to dive into the blood pool and fish it out?" Fu Jian asked after a slight hesitation.
"Everyone, please don't act rashly. The power of the flesh and blood contained in this pool of blood is not something we can imagine. If we were to enter it rashly, let alone finding the skeleton, I'm afraid that we will suffer a backlash from the power of the flesh and blood and become a member of this vast expanse of white bones." Edgar waved his hand and slowly said.
"Then what should we do?" Sun Tu raised his eyebrows and asked.
"This blood pool is built on a blood sacrifice formation. The five statues around it are the five legs of the formation. I need Fellow Sun and the other city lords to work with me to activate the formation and extract the skeleton from the blood pool," Echa said.
"This … City Lord E, cough cough … I have a question that I don't understand. I wonder if City Lord can explain it to me," Qin Yuan asked with a slight frown.
"Brother Qin, feel free to speak your mind," Ekay said calmly.
"Cough … In that case, please forgive me for offending you. No one has ever entered the Great Ruins before. Why does City Lord E seem to be so familiar with the situation here? What exactly is going on?" Qin Yuan looked at the people around him and asked.
When he asked this question, most of the people in the hall looked at Eggy. It was obvious that he was not the only one who had the same question.
"To tell you the truth, when I went out to explore the Scale Void Realm by myself, I once obtained an ancient tablet of unknown origin. It recorded the situation in a secret realm. Although it didn't say that it was the Great Ruins, I always felt that there was a connection between it and the secret realm.
When I truly entered the Great Ruins, I saw many things along the way that confirmed the inscriptions on the tablet. Only then did I confirm that the contents on the tablet were true.
As for whether you are willing to believe it or not … since you are already here, why don't you give it a try? "Edgar said slowly as his gaze swept across the crowd.
When Han Li heard this, he could not help but criticize in his heart. There were too many loopholes in Edgar's words. Everyone knew that he was probably making it up casually, but they could not refute him. This was because everything here was unknown to them.
However, Edgar's last sentence was right. After going through so many hardships to reach this place, who could resist the temptation and not give it a try?
"Haha … since City Lord E said it, how can we not believe it?
No matter what, I, Sun Tu, will definitely believe it.
However, since we have never been to this secret realm before, why don't we work together and check carefully to make sure that there are no traps or hidden arrays before we try? What do you think? "Sun Tu suddenly laughed when he saw that everyone was silent.
When the rest heard this, their eyes flashed and they all agreed.
"Of course. Even if Fellow Sun didn't mention it, I was going to say it anyway," Edgar said with a smile.
Therefore, the crowd began to spread out and check outside the pentagonal blood pool and the entire altar.
Han Li did not go to find Chen Yang. Instead, he went to the edge of the altar with Shi Chuankong and checked along the outer stone railings.
Chen Yang only glanced at the backs of Han Li and Shi Chuankong before he turned and walked towards a black stone statue. Xuanyuan Xing silently followed behind him.
In the other cities, the City Lords also brought their subordinates to check the statues that served as the array pivot.
Sun Tu rolled up his sleeves and came under a statue. He raised his head and looked at the neck of the statue for a moment. Then, he raised his hand and touched the body of the stone statue. He secretly transferred a wisp of Star Power into it.
The statue stood motionless and did not change in the slightest.
Sun Tu frowned slightly and suddenly opened his sleeve above the blood pool. His sleeve made a rustling sound and a wisp of blood mist suddenly condensed into a blood-colored whirlpool. It spun and flowed into his sleeve.
After a slight noise, the sleeve returned to its original state.
After a moment, Sun Tu's furrowed brows gradually relaxed and he turned to look at Fang Chan.
The pig-faced youth was lying on the stone railings. He looked like a lecher who had seen a peerless beauty, or a hungry man who had seen a table full of wine and meat. His mouth was wide open and saliva was dripping from the corner of his mouth. His expression was one of greed.
"Chan 'er, you must not recklessly go into the blood pool." Sun Tu's expression was solemn as he warned.
The pig-faced youth turned his head with a look of disappointment.
"Alright, once the formation is activated, you have to protect me properly.
After we retrieve the skeleton, I will definitely think of a way to get you a piece. "Seeing this, Sun Tu's expression relaxed and he said with a smile.
Hearing this, the latter grinned again.
On the other side, Fu Jian was constantly patting the black stone statue. Duan Tong followed behind him, wanting to say something but hesitating.
"If you have something to say, say it." Fu Jian stopped what he was doing and said.
"City Lord, I don't know why, but I feel that this place is a little strange. Why don't I activate the great array for you? If anything happens, you can cast a spell to save me. It will be easier than me saving you." Duan Tong lowered his voice and said.
"It's rare for you to have such a thought …" Fu Jian seemed a little surprised and said after hesitating for a moment.
Just as Duan Tong was about to say something, Fu Jian's voice sounded in his sea of consciousness.
"Echu must have thought it through when he asked the five City Lords to enter the formation together. Why would he agree to let you activate the formation for me?
Moreover, this formation is definitely not ordinary. With your cultivation, I'm afraid it won't be enough. "
Hearing this, Duan Tong lowered his head slightly and became silent.
"Alright, don't worry too much. I didn't come without any preparation. You don't have to worry too much." Fu Jian patted Duan Tong's shoulder and said.
Hearing this, Duan Tong's eyes narrowed and he nodded.
Qin Yuan had been observing everyone's actions. He looked at Fu Jian from afar and nodded at each other.
He had already used his means to check the stone statues and the blood pool, but he did not find anything unusual. Hence, he walked around the five statues and checked the ground carefully. Similarly, he found nothing.
Han Li walked along the edge of the altar and stopped in front of every stone pillar. He raised his hand and touched it gently for a while to feel the patterns on it.
Suddenly, he frowned and stopped stroking. Turning around, he saw that Zhu Ziqing had walked over to him for some reason.
"You're Li Feiyu, right?
My elder brother said that you're not a simple human. Why can't I tell … "Zhu Ziqing walked around Shi Chuankong who was behind Han Li and said.
"Your Elder Brother is wrong. I'm just a human. I'm not worthy of your attention," Han Li said expressionlessly.
"No matter what my elder brother said, I'm quite interested in you. It's indeed not easy for a human to cultivate to this level. Just this point alone makes you very … special." Zhu Ziqing supported his chin with one hand and nodded.
"What are you doing here? Aren't you coming back?"
Zhu Ziyuan's attention was on the blood pool just now. When he realized that Zhu Ziqing was not around, he hurried over.
Although he was reprimanding, his tone was not harsh. Obviously, he doted on his younger sister.
Zhu Ziqing smiled embarrassedly and made a face at him. He pulled his sleeve and walked over.
A hint of a smile appeared in Han Li's eyes upon seeing this.
When he was still in the small mountain village, he was closest to his younger sister among the five siblings. However, the path of cultivation was long and merciless, and his memory of his younger sister was already a little blurry.
Zhu Ziyuan nodded at him apologetically and left with his younger sister.
On the other side, Chen Yang's expression was normal, but his eyes flickered back and forth. He seemed to be troubled.
He circled around the statue beside him and stopped.
"City Lord …" Xuanyuan Xing frowned and could not help but call out.
Chen Yang was slightly stunned. He composed himself and looked at Xuanyuan Xing, but he did not say anything.
He came to the stone railing and looked at the blood pool below for a moment. Suddenly, he retracted his hand into his sleeve. When he stretched it out again, there was a khaki short spear in his palm. There were lightning patterns carved on it.
As he waved his hand, there was a flash of white light on the short spear. It pierced through the gap of the stone railing and shot into the blood pool.
There was a loud "Peng" sound!
The khaki short spear exploded in the blood pool and turned into a ball of white lightning that was about ten feet in size.
The snow-white lightning scattered in all directions, and a large amount of blood-colored fog was dispersed. It turned into thin smoke and rose, but it did not come out of the blood pool.
Everyone was shocked by this sound and looked over. They saw that the blood in the blood pool was surging much faster. The surrounding stone walls were like waves of blood hitting the shore, creating waves.
"Chen Yang, what are you doing?" Qin Yuan reprimanded.
"Nothing much. I'm just trying to see if there's anything strange in the blood pool …" Chen Yang said calmly.
Er Ge only lifted his eyelids to look over, then looked away and looked at the statue in front of him.
Shao Ying and the other two stood behind him and did not say a word.
After a while, the waves in the blood pool gradually calmed down, and nothing abnormal happened.
