c_t;Because the injury was not serious, Luo Xiu recovered in less than two days. Read the latest chapter in full. For more latest chapters, visit: ww .
He took out the voice transmission box and contacted the intelligence director of the Hunter Guild to ask if there were any unusual movements in Xuanyang Sect and Haiyunzhou.
Through the intelligence collected by the Hunter Guild, Luo Xiu learned that a martial king like Elder Xuanyang would have a trace of soul mark left inside the sect. Once he died, the soul mark would also dissipate, and the sect would immediately know about his death.
This incident caused a great uproar in Xuanyang Sect. After all, a martial king can be said to be the top combat power of a sect. Once the life span of the martial king ancestor is exhausted, the new martial king will be produced among the martial kings below.
Therefore, the more martial lord-level masters there are, the higher the chance of producing martial emperor-level masters. The entire Xuanyang Sect originally had only two martial lords, and now one has fallen, which can be regarded as a huge loss.
This kind of loss cannot be compensated by a large amount of resources, because the birth of each martial lord-level master is not enough to have sufficient resources and talent, but also requires opportunities and the precipitation of long years of cultivation.
Of course, the death of a martial lord elder will not affect the status of Xuanyang Sect. As long as the martial emperor ancestor is still alive, the status of Xuanyang Sect will not be shaken.
But the significance involved is extraordinary. It is said that even the martial emperor-level ancestor went out in person.
According to the information held by the Hunter Guild, Xuanyang Sect has not yet determined the cause of death of Elder Xuanyang, nor how he fell. It is only known that after leaving the sect, Elder Xuanyang went to Tongshui Swamp.
So during the two days when Luo Xiu was recuperating, almost all the forces near Tongshui Swamp were searched upside down by the masters of Xuanyang Sect, and the people were panicked.
That's why he could often sense the breath of martial arts masters flying across the sky these two days.
"I hope the location of the cave mansion ruins has not been discovered by the masters of Xuanyang Sect."
After his injuries were fully recovered, Luo Xiu and Yan Yue'er entered the Tongshui Swamp together again, and according to the location marked on the secret map, they came to the area where the cave mansion ruins were located.
However, the thing he was most worried about finally happened. A strong breath appeared here, and each one was a master above the Martial King level.
A few days ago, a battle of the Martial Lord level took place here. Although Luo Xiu had set up a shielding formation to prevent Elder Xuanyang and his men from communicating and to isolate the leakage of the True Yuan 'wave' breath.
But later, after he and Yan Yue'er left, Xuanyang Sect searched the entire Tongshui Swamp because of the death of Elder Wujun, and found traces of the battle here, as well as the residual breath of Elder Xuanyang when he was alive.
The people of Xuanyang Sect almost dug three feet into the ground in this area. Although the entrance to the cave mansion ruins was very hidden, it was still discovered. Novel download
Luo Xiu and Yan Yue'er just watched from a distance, without rashly approaching, because Xuanyang Sect had completely blocked this area of hundreds of miles.
"What should we do?" Yan Yue'er glanced at Luo Xiu, who was looking gloomy.
The two came from a long distance and finally killed Elder Xuanyang, but in the end the secret of the cave mansion ruins could not be kept.
...
In the center of the area blocked by Xuanyang Sect, there was a swamp that looked ordinary.
However, at this moment, the swamp below had been broken, and a dark space vortex was spinning silently, like an ancient beast with its mouth wide open, choosing people to devour.
Above this swamp, ten figures in golden robes were flying in the sky and standing in the air.
"No wonder Elder Xuanyang entered the Tongshui Swamp quietly. Perhaps he also discovered the entrance to this cave ruins and wanted to explore it alone and embezzle the treasures inside."
The first person to speak was a woman wearing a half-golden mask, and her voice was as beautiful as the sound of nature.
Although only half of her face was revealed, she was still extremely beautiful.
However, the other people present did not dare to disrespect her just because she was a woman, because this mysterious woman with a half-golden mask was the leader of Xuanyang Sect!
In the area around Tianwu Kingdom, there are three major transcendent forces, and Xuanyang Sect is one of them. The cultivation level of Xuanyang Sect Leader is even a strong man in the fourth level of Wu Jun.
"Sect Leader, Elder Xuanyang should have been killed by someone. In this Tianwu Kingdom, there are only a handful of people who are capable of killing Elder Xuanyang. I'm afraid that our Xuanyang Sect is not the first to discover the secret of this cave ruins." An old man said respectfully.
"Do you want to ask the ancestor to come out?" Another guardian spoke up.
There are two Martial Lords in Xuanyang Sect, one is the Sect Master of Xuanyang, and the other is the Elder of Xuanyang.
Now that Elder Xuanyang has passed away, only this female Sect Master is the only Martial Lord in Xuanyang Sect.
Under her command, these nine people are all the Martial King Guardians of Xuanyang Sect.
In the entire Tianwu Kingdom, there are no more than thirty Martial King-level strongmen, and there are nine Martial King-level strongmen in Xuanyang Sect alone. This is the powerful foundation of the transcendent power.
"The ancestor is a Martial Emperor, and if he comes here in person, everyone will know that a great treasure has appeared here. At that time, not to mention the Purple Mansion Palace and the Changhe 'Gate', even the powerful forces in the more distant regions with Martial Emperors will come to join in the fun."
The Xuanyang Sect Master shook his head and rejected the proposal.
"Besides, it is still unknown whether there are treasures in this cave mansion ruins that are worth the ancestor's efforts. The ancestor's identity is too sensitive. He should not be disturbed unless it is absolutely necessary."
"Our sect has tried it just now. The entrance to this ancient ruins is a space vortex with amazing strangling power. However, because it has gone through endless years, the entrance ban is no longer so strong. Several martial masters should be able to force it open with joint attacks."
The Xuanyang Sect Master put his hands behind his back, full of vigor and energy, as if pointing out the mountains and rivers, and said slowly: "Anyway, the secrets of this cave mansion ruins are not only known to us. It won't be long before many strong people will come. At that time, we will use their power to open the entrance of this cave mansion ruins!"
"Sect Master, if it is the Wuhuang ancestors of Zifu Palace and Changhe Gate..." A guardian looked worried.
"Then the ancestors of our Xuanyang Sect will naturally not sit idly by." The Xuanyang Sect Master said calmly.
…
Hundreds of miles away, Luo Xiu and Yan Yue'er restrained their auras and hid in a secluded place.
The auras of powerful people in front of them made them dare not get too close, and they dared not even release their spiritual sense to explore.
"At least there is one martial lord and seven or eight martial kings!" Yan Yue'er frowned slightly.
"Where is the Xuanyang Patriarch?" Luo Xiu said in a deep voice.
Yan Yue'er shook her head, "Unless he restrains his aura, I should be able to sense it, but the martial emperor-level ancestors are generally not so low-key, so the Xuanyang Sect's ancestors should not have come yet."
The powerful ancestors who have reached the martial emperor level have reached a state close to the unity of heaven and man, and their spiritual sense is extremely sharp. Even if the two of them are hiding hundreds of miles away, they will definitely not escape the perception of the martial emperor-level ancestors.
Yan Yue'er also judged that the Xuanyang Sect's ancestors were not present based on these.
"Although the martial emperor-level ancestors did not come, the Xuanyang Sect Master should have come. Even in my prime, I am not her opponent." Yan Yue'er said so.
"Xuan Yang Sect wants to take the ancient ruins for itself?" Luo Xiu's gloomy face showed a sneer, and he took out the voice transmission box from the storage ring.
Seeing Luo Xiu's action, Yan Yue'er knew what he was going to do.
"It's easier to fish in muddy water. We can't wade into clear water, so let's just muddy the water." With a move of his spiritual sense, Luo Xiu used the voice transmission box to send several messages in succession.
Not long after, a message crossed tens of thousands of miles, and a voice came into Luo Xiu's ears from the voice transmission box.
"You wait there, I will be there in two days at the earliest."
This message was sent by Yuan Chengwu Jun, the headquarters of the Tianwu City Hunter Guild. The value of an ancient ruins is immeasurable. Even a strong man like Yuan Chengwu Jun would be tempted and would come in person.
A Martial Emperor-level warrior is a powerful person who can move the whole body if one hair moves. He needs to stay in the sect to deter all parties. He will not show up easily. Therefore, in Tianwu Kingdom and the surrounding land, Martial Lord-level warriors are already the top fighting force.
As time passed quietly, the news about the appearance of ancient ruins in Tongshui Swamp soon spread to the ears of all major forces.
With the strength of Xuanyang Sect, it is impossible to open the entrance of the ruins covered by the space vortex, and the spread of the news cannot be stopped.
Two days later, Yuancheng Wujun arrived in person, and soon after, the strong men from the Fan Family Royal Family, Zifu Palace, and Changhe Gate also came one after another.
In addition, the Wujun ancestors of the other nine major families in Tianwu Kingdom, except the Fan Family Royal Family, also came in person.
In just five days, with the intelligence capabilities of the Hunter Guild, it can be roughly determined that there are 20 Martial Lords from Tianwu Kingdom and surrounding areas gathered in Tongshui Swamp!
As for the Martial King-level warriors, there are even more, close to 50!
"So many?" Such a huge number of strong men made Luo Xiu dumbfounded.
"It's normal, because not only the strong men above the Martial King in Tianwu Kingdom, but also the strong men from all the major forces in the surrounding areas have come, plus some hidden strong men heard that the ancient ruins appeared and came, so the number is not large." Yuan Chengwu Jun explained with a smile.
"Has any Martial Emperor monster appeared?" Luo Xiu asked again.
"Not yet. In this area centered on Tianwu Kingdom, there are only three Martial Emperor monsters, sitting in Zifu Palace, Changhe'men, and Xuanyang Sect respectively. The three major forces check and balance each other, and the Martial Emperor monster will not appear easily." Yuan Chengwu Jun shook his head and said.
For the three major forces, the Martial Emperor monster is the strategic factor that determines the 'sex'. The three Martial Emperor monsters are also wary of each other. Once they start fighting, the Martial Emperor monster is injured or killed, which may cause great shock, and even set off a battle to destroy the 'men'.
Therefore, the Martial Emperor-level monsters will not appear unless it is extremely necessary.
Although according to Yuan Chengwujun, the possibility of the appearance of a Martial Emperor-level monster is not high, but the presence of about twenty Martial Lord-level strongmen is already very terrifying.
Luo Xiu estimated that even if he played all his cards, his strength could only keep pace with the fourth level of the Martial King. If he met the fifth level of the Martial King, he would not be an opponent and could only protect himself. As for the Martial Lord, he would definitely die if he faced him.
Before, he was able to injure Elder Xuanyang with the Seal of Life and Death because the other party resisted Yan Yue'er's soul attack with all his strength. Otherwise, he would not have had the opportunity to use the Seal of Life and Death and would have been killed instantly by the Martial Lord.
Thinking of this, Luo Xiu's heart sank slightly, because not to mention himself, even Yan Yue'er's strength of the second level of the Martial Lord was in the middle and lower reaches among the twenty Martial Lords. If there were any precious treasures in the Cave Mansion Ruins, it was estimated that he would not be able to get them at all.
However, Luo Xiu soon returned to his normal state of mind. Although his strength was relatively weak, he had an advantage over the Cave Mansion Ruins that no one else had, that is, the black bead he got from the Zhu family of Wufeng County!
According to the ancestor of the Zhu family, this black bead seemed to be a key thing closely related to the Cave Mansion Ruins.
