2922 The strange pottery statue (1)
All the cultivators, including the Grand Elder, were caught off guard when they saw Tang Zhen’s back disappear.
Oh my God! That’s the entrance to the Tao Wu secret realm!
Suddenly, a cultivator shouted in an excited tone, his face full of shock.
He had seen the opening of the ruin secret realm before, and the scene in front of him was exactly the same!
“How is that possible?”
All the nearby cultivators, including the great elder, were dumbfounded. They didn’t know what had happened.
The secret realm of the ruins clearly required an exclusive token to enter, so why did the door suddenly open?
Was it an illusion, or was it really activated?
Compared to the other confused cultivators, the first elder was the fastest to guess the truth and was certain that this was Tang Zhen’s method.
He didn’t even need a token. With just a thought, he opened the door of the ruin secret realm!
It was just like how he had reversed the runic magic circle in the Treasury Branch and extracted all the treasures by force.
That kind of powerful means had already exceeded everyone’s imagination. They had no ability to resist at all.
At this moment, the first elder felt that he was a frog at the bottom of a well. At the same time, he was also deeply shocked by Tang Zhen’s strength.
The means of gods might not be as powerful as this.
this is a rare opportunity. What are you all waiting for? hurry up and follow me!
The first elder’s low roar woke up the dazed cultivators from the treasure vault, and they revealed an excited expression.
He followed the Grand Elder and headed straight for the tunnel ahead. In the blink of an eye, he was already inside.
Although the advantage of getting the pass token had disappeared, as long as he could enter the ruin secret realm, he would have achieved his goal.
The only drawback was that others could also enter, and they couldn’t stop them. Otherwise, they would become the target of public criticism.
This time, the treasure vault had sent out 3000 elite cultivators to guard the rune battleships. Half of them were left to guard the battleships, while the rest entered the secret realm of ruins.
The other cultivators in the ruins were also shocked by the sudden opening of the passage.
They could not be sure if the tunnel really led them to the ruin secret realm, so they were hesitant.
The actions of the cultivators who went to the treasure house strengthened the confidence of the surrounding cultivators. Their original doubts were also thrown to the back of their minds.
The ones who reacted the fastest were the old enemies of the treasure house, the cultivators from the thousand feet peak.
As soon as the cultivators from the treasure vault entered, the cultivators from the outside world also entered.
Their allies were still in the ruin secret realm, so they had to provide support in time to avoid being attacked by the cultivators in the treasure house.
The other cultivators couldn’t control their desires either and rushed into the passage.
The native cultivators of the extreme spirit realm also sent out the news and entered in groups.
Time passed slowly, and the ruins became very lively.
More and more cultivators gathered in the ancient ruins. They either couldn’t wait to enter the passage or stayed outside to meet their companions.
Some cultivators estimated that at least tens of thousands of cultivators had entered in less than half a day.
This was only the beginning. As the news spread, more and more cultivators would arrive.
Some special figures appeared in the waiting teams, but no cultivators noticed anything unusual.
They were all cultivators who had obtained tokens and entered the ruin secret realm. It was said that they had all obtained a large number of treasures.
However, after the treasure hunt ended, these cultivators disappeared without a trace and rarely appeared in front of outsiders.
The outside world was suspecting that these cultivators had obtained enough benefits, which was why they were hiding to increase their strength.
As the news of the tunnel’s appearance spread, the cultivators who had entered the ruin secret realm all gathered here quietly.
They didn’t enter the passage, but spread out in silence, as if guarding the passage.
Although there was no verbal communication, their actions were quite tacit, as if someone had organized it in secret.
Upon closer inspection, one would notice that these cultivators all had a simple and strange clay statue hanging on their waists.
The pottery seemed to be a burial object. The color painted on its surface had long faded due to the erosion of time.
But the expression on his face had a kind of vivid feeling, and it was indescribably strange.
If one observed it carefully, one would have the feeling that the statue was staring at one with a faint smile.
……
After the first elder entered the passage, he found that the scene in front of him was very similar to the headquarters of the treasure vault.
It was also a dark environment, as if it was a tomb that had been buried underground for 10000 years, exuding a stale aura.
The tall walls made of unknown materials were combined with the terrain of the cave. From time to time, ferocious monster sculptures could be seen hidden in dark corners.
When you couldn’t see them, they would use their cold eyes to secretly spy on you.
Looking at the scene in the ruin secret realm, the first elder and the others looked at each other, their expressions solemn.
Such a dilapidated place actually had countless treasures. No matter how he thought about it, he felt that something was off.
“There’s something wrong here. Be on high alert and don’t let your guard down.”
As a group of professional assassins, cultivators in the treasure vault were extremely vigilant. No matter what kind of environment they were in, they would never be careless.
The great elder looked around and continued to instruct, ” “If you want to get the treasure, you have to go to different places. Only then can you get more opportunities.
The caves in the secret realm of the ruins led to different locations, making it the best place to set up traps.
Everyone must be careful when they move to avoid falling into traps and ambushes.
In the following time, everyone split up into groups of 100.
If it wasn’t necessary, don’t get into a fight with others and focus on treasure hunting.
If you find that person, immediately inform your teammates and do your best to follow him.”
The great elder looked at the passage that showed no signs of closing and shook his head.
In the following days, there would definitely be a large number of cultivators gathering here, and it was Tang Zhen who deliberately placed them in the ruin secret realm.
Tang Zhen could open the ruin secret realm, so he could naturally close it, but he didn’t do so.
First elder secretly guessed in his heart. What exactly was the reason behind Tang Zhen’s actions?
However, at this moment, there was no time to think about it. He could only take one step at a time.
“Move out!”
As soon as the great elder finished speaking, the 2000 cultivators from the treasure vault quickly disappeared into different passages.
The Grand Elder led a group of people and chose one of the passages, quickly advancing toward an unknown area.
In the process of advancing, the cultivators constantly looked around, trying to find the so-called rare treasures.
In the legends of the outside world, there were countless treasures in the ruin secret realm, so many that it was almost impossible to carry them.
As they could not use storage equipment, the cultivators who entered the secret realm could only carry all sorts of treasures.
Such a strange scene had long been vividly spread by the cultivators who had watched.
However, after entering the ruin secret realm, they did not even find a single treasure. Could it be that they were all taken away by the cultivators who had been here before?
Of course, there was also the possibility that they had not reached the place where the treasure was placed and had to continue deeper in.
Just as the cultivators were looking around, the great elder at the front suddenly made a gesture to stop.
“Look at the front, Yingluo.”
Following the first elder’s directions, the cultivators saw a strange scene in the middle of the road.
A group of small and exquisite pottery statues of various shapes were gathered together, as if they were playing some kind of game.
The shape of the pottery was very vivid, but because it was too old, the face was a bit blurry.
For some reason, when the Grand Elder and the other cultivators saw the pottery statues, they all had a strange feeling.
It was as if there was some strange thing hidden in those small pottery statues, and it was secretly peeping at him.
don’t pay attention to these things. Let’s continue forward!
The first elder’s eyes flashed with vigilance. He led his group of cultivators around the Tao statue in the middle of the road.
In a very short time, the cultivators crossed this area and continued to move forward.
As they walked, a few cultivators in the treasure vault suddenly revealed strange smiles.
The smile disappeared in a flash. Other than the companions who had the same smile, the other cultivators didn’t see it at all.
On the waists of these cultivators, there was a ceramic statue hanging inexplicably. It was the same one they had encountered on the road earlier.
