551 Ancient Ruins

However, this pressure only lasted a few microseconds before dissipating.

“Mm?”

Zhou Han acutely sensed an aura probing toward him.

Although it was very hidden, he could still clearly feel it with his powerful perception.

‘Looks like the Flying Serpent Saint Emperor is paying attention to me!’ Zhou Han thought quickly.

“That’s true. After all, with my relationship with Ao Zhen, as a powerful Saint Emperor-grade expert, it’s not strange for him to know!”

“I wonder what the Flying Serpent Saint Emperor’s attitude towards me is?”

After all, he was his future father-in-law. It would definitely be best if he could build a good relationship.

While Zhou Han was thinking, he heard a hearty voice.

“Hahaha! Very good. So many prodigies have come to my Cloud Void Sacred Palace. I thank everyone for your support!”

Ao Tianyun clapped his hands and continued with a smile.

“Since we’re all here and we have the same goal, I’ll cut to the chase.”

“The mystic realm will open now, but before doing so, you still have to familiarize yourselves with the relevant rules.”

As soon as Ao Tianyun finished speaking, a guard took the initiative to stand up.

He held a scroll in his hand that recorded the relevant rules of this mystic realm and the relevant process of determining the top ten.

“This mystic realm is called the Ancient Ruins. It’s rumored to have evolved from an ancient battlefield.”

“Therefore, I have to make it clear that there are many areas in the Ancient Ruins that have not been explored and are filled with unknown dangers.”

“In other words, your lives will be in danger if you prodigies enter.”

“Now if anyone wants to withdraw, you can explain in advance!” the guard said slowly, waiting for everyone to make their choice.

After all, it involved many large factions. He naturally had to inform them in advance. Otherwise, if a prodigy really died inside, the Cloud Void Sacred Palace became the target of public criticism. This was not what Ao Tianyun wanted to see.

Now, everyone was willing. Anyway, no one forced them. If an accident happened in the mystic realm, it would have nothing to do with the Cloud Void Sacred Palace.

“Ha! How dangerous can it be? My title as Brother Flattop is not for nothing. Danger and benefits coexist. Of course, I have to go in and explore.”

“Why should prodigies like us cherish a battle?! Only by constantly challenging danger can we break through!”

“Yes, if you’re afraid, quit on your own! I’m not that cowardly!”

…

Then, no one withdrew. After all, it was impossible to become a top prodigy with talent alone.

Without constant tempering, they would not have reached their current height.

Everyone had powerful confidence in their strength and was not afraid.

Of course, there would definitely be a small number of prodigies who wanted to withdraw. However, for the sake of face, they could only bite the bullet.

After all, when one was outside, what he represented now was not his personal reputation, but the reputation of his faction.

This was embarrassing. Not only would he be mocked by the surrounding prodigies, but he would also not be liked by his faction when he returned.

“Very good. You’re all admirable adventurers.”

“In the mystic realm, there’s a special stone called the Demon Bud Stone all around the Ancient Ruins. What you have to do is collect it.”

“Within a day, the ten prodigies who collect the most Demon Bud Stones will become the top ten of the mystic realm and obtain the chance to meet Princess Ao Zhen!”

The guard quickly read the rules. They were simple and everyone understood as soon as they heard them.

“Then how are we going to come out of the Ancient Ruins in a day?” Lin Feng asked curiously.

“Yes, that’s a good question!”

“In a day, three teleportation arrays will open in the Ancient Ruins.”

“The teleportation array in the center will definitely open. The other two teleportation arrays will open at random in the Ancient Ruins,” the guard explained with a smile.

“After we entered the Mystic Realm—Ancient Ruins, did we appear in the same area?” Du Fei glanced at Zhou Han and turned to ask the guard.

“After entering the mystic realm, the locations you appear are all random.”

“In the mystic realm, the perception will weaken, and communication cultivation techniques and methods will be restricted,” the guard said.

Such rules naturally eliminated the possibility of forming a team. Otherwise, some factions would have more than ten to twenty people.

If they directly formed a team and pushed forward, how could the four or five people from the other forces play?

This restriction maintained fairness on a certain basis.

“Was it teleported at random?”

“Hmph, you’re far away!”

“You can still live a few more hours. Cherish the last of your life!” Du Fei looked at Zhou Han and smiled coldly, making a throat-cutting provocative move.

He took the initiative to ask this question because he wanted to deal with Zhou Han when he entered the mystic realm. Hearing the guard’s answer, Du Fei was a little disappointed and said ruthlessly to Zhou Han.

“Brother Han, this dog doesn’t know that it actually dared to provoke us like this last night,” Ye Chen said unhappily.

“That’s right. Otherwise, how would he dare?” Lin Feng was also filled with anger. The people of the Nine Sacred City were getting more and more impudent.

“Ha! Don’t be angry. This Du Fei is just a clown. A dog that really bites won’t bark!”

Zhou Han glanced around. The few people in the crowd he had paid attention to were much stronger than Du Fei, but they were all very low-key and hid in the crowd like passers-by.

If not for Zhou Han’s powerful perception, he would not have noticed them at all.

Such a person was what he needed to focus on.

Next, the guard answered the questions raised by the other prodigies. Seeing that no one asked anymore, the guard smiled and announced, “In that case, open the mystic realm door now. Good luck!”

A huge light surged out, and the array formation on the ground of the side hall erupted with an incomparably dazzling light.

The moment Spatial Power spewed out, a door of light slowly appeared on the ground.

Unexpectedly, the entrance to the mystic realm was in the side hall.

After the space stabilized, under the guard’s instructions, these prodigies surged into the door of light like dumplings.

“You two have to be careful!” Zhou Han patted Ye Chen and Lin Feng’s shoulders and reminded them.

After all, Zhou Han was not afraid of the five prodigies from the Nine Sacred City. If Lin Feng and the others encountered them, it would be very troublesome.

“Yes, we’ll pay attention.”

“Becoming a top expert means facing various challenges and dangers. Even if we die, it’s because we’re inferior.”

Ye Chen and Lin Feng were still very relaxed and not too afraid.

Zhou Han nodded and also entered the door of light of the mystic realm.
