Global Catastrophe: I Became the World Tree-Chapter 376 - 243: The Last Ancient Ruins_2

However, there are some things that can be determined beforehand.

Thinking of this, Ye Feng immediately withdrew from the entire temple and came outside to watch for a while.

He compared the images with those he had captured yesterday in his mind and found that the temple was indeed much clearer now, with the clarity having improved by about 10%.

At this moment, Zhao Sheng, seeing both the Mutated Parrot and the Mutated Eagle emerge, couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief and hastily went to meet them.

"Parrot Messenger, is there anything amiss inside?" Zhao Sheng asked.

"Indeed, there are some discoveries. The main hall within the temple, have those of you who went in to explore it found that it has a particular attraction?" Ye Feng asked directly.

"Attraction?" Zhao Sheng seemed somewhat bewildered.

Seeing such an expression on his face, Ye Feng knew that the other party was not aware of the situation and immediately said, "Yes, the main hall inside does indeed generate an attraction, and according to my guess, the stronger one’s strength, the greater the attraction might be."

"Everyone who went in before for the exploration, were they all normal soldiers?"

Zhao Sheng quickly answered, "Yes, that’s right, along with some researchers, but they were all ordinary people as well."

After thinking for a while, Ye Feng said, "Then it probably has something to do with Realm. Can you find some Evolutionists, or Superhumans to come over, from every order?"

Upon hearing that there was such a matter, Zhao Sheng was also surprised, but quickly nodded his head, "Okay, no problem, I’ll take care of it right now."

The other party was quick, given that the temple was near Tianhe City, and they too wanted to figure out exactly what was going on.

Moreover, with the arrival of the two Great Envoys from the Dragon Hall, under these circumstances, it could be said that the way was being paved with green lights.

In less than half an hour, three more individuals were found, four Evolutionists and one Superhuman.

First Order and Second Stage were both Evolutionists, with two from each.

As for the Third Order, it was a Superhuman, the strongest in the whole Tianhe City, who had just broken through to the Third Order by seizing the opportunity of the 4th Spiritual Energy Resurgence.

Ye Feng looked at the five people in front of him and directly said, "Let’s go, we’re going in."

As he spoke, he led the way inside, and although the five were somewhat hesitant, they quickly followed.

"How is it? Do you feel anything?" After entering the temple, Ye Feng immediately asked the five.

"No."

"A little."

"Yes."

Three different responses came out.

Ye Feng found that it was as he had guessed, the higher the Realm, the stronger the attraction of the main hall to them.

He carefully asked about the specific feelings of these five people.

Then he discovered that the requirement for generating attraction seemed a bit high.

There was no response from First Order Evolutionists, and even Second Stage Evolutionists, who could feel the attraction, only faintly sensed it.

Only at Third Order did the feeling become clear and obvious.

That sensation was like a threshold, only once reaching Third Order did one meet the standard.

He then had these people try to approach, or even pass through the main hall, and their reactions were almost the same as his own.

When Ye Feng led the group back out, his brow was still furrowed.

Although it couldn’t be said there were no findings, there still seemed to be a long way to go to unravel the mysteries of the temple.

Upon seeing Zhao Sheng again, Ye Feng immediately shared all of his conjectures.

"That’s all the findings for now. Judging from the current situation, the likelihood of this temple posing a hazard is relatively small," Ye Feng said.

Upon hearing the conclusion reached by the Dragon Hall side, Zhao Sheng’s heart also noticeably eased.

He seemed to think of something and said, "Right, Parrot Messenger. There’s one more thing, did you notice it?"

"What is it?" Ye Feng asked with curiosity.

"Time! The virtual images of the temple that appeared yesterday vanished promptly after half an hour, but today they have already been present for well over half an hour," Zhao Sheng said.

Upon hearing this, Ye Feng was slightly taken aback.

He had been pondering why that palace felt so alluring to him, without paying much attention to the time.

"Compared to yesterday, not only has this temple become clearer, but the time it appears has also extended. It’s giving me a strange sense of déjà vu as if the illusion is stepping into reality," Ye Feng muttered to himself.

Of course, these were purely baseless speculations.

After thinking it over, Ye Feng said to Zhao Sheng, "Got it. You keep track of the time and compile the data. If everything goes as expected, I reckon this temple will appear again tomorrow."

"Okay!" Zhao Sheng nodded, a hint of worry in his gesture.

Without further ado, Ye Feng simply watched the temple quietly, waiting to see when it would disappear.

...

Small Phoenix Mountain Restricted Area!

In the Different Space, the Qiongqi, which had recently sealed itself again, opened its eyes once more.

There was a hint of excitement in its eyes, but more than that, a sense of irritation.

"My previous conjecture was indeed correct; the number nine is the ultimate. Here in the Land of Revival, there really is an unopened Ancient Ruin," the Qiongqi said, grinding its teeth.

"And this is the 9th Ancient Ruin. The contents inside must be incredibly important. Damn it! Why did it have to appear right now?" Qiongqi was visibly frustrated.

Because at this moment, it was unable to leave and partake in the competition for power.

Of course, just because it couldn’t compete, didn’t mean its subordinates couldn’t.

"However, I need to start preparing. The other fellows will not give up; who knows how many subordinates will be thrown into the fray this time," it reflected.

"But as long as the treasure inside is seized, it will be worth it."

Thinking back to the excellent items it found in the previous eight Ancient Ruins since its arrival in the Land of Revival, its eyes blazed with desire.

The ruins contained techniques, secret arts, top-grade natural treasures, and even Divine Artifacts.

With this thought, Qiongqi opened its mouth, and a small spear flew out. Once released, the spear grew rapidly in the wind, instantly expanding to a hundred meters in length.

As it appeared, the whole space trembled slightly, with the force of space emanating from the spear’s tip requiring even the Qiongqi to be cautious.

It extended a claw and awkwardly grasped the long spear in its hand.

This was a Divine Artifact with spatial attributes that it had fought fiercely to obtain from one of the Ancient Ruins.

It was able to take control of this Different Space largely thanks to this Divine Artifact in its hand.

Unfortunately, the spear was clearly designed for human use, making it quite awkward for it to handle; nevertheless, with the spear’s power, it could easily repel peers of the same realm.

"It’s a pity that my Space Talent is lacking. After tens of thousands of years, there’s still a gap from breaking the 2nd Layer Seal, let alone the 3rd Layer Seal," it lamented.

"This last Ancient Ruin may hold a Divine Artifact suitable for me. If I can seize it, my strength will definitely rise to a new level."

"Even if not, I need to get some top-grade treasures that can help me recover rapidly."

"This 9th Ancient Ruin could be the greatest uncertainty, and time waits for no one!" Qiongqi sighed heavily.

It too, was racing against time.

...

Ye Feng had no way of knowing what was happening in the Small Phoenix Mountain Restricted Area.

Yet, as he observed the temple vanishing slowly after just one hour, his expression became thoughtful.

He felt that the development of events was getting closer to his conjectures.

What would happen tomorrow if these temples appeared again and became even clearer would be telling.

It might very well mean that they were indeed transitioning from illusion to reality.

This sounded quite fantastical, yet after his own investigation, it was the sudden intuition that sprang into Ye Feng’s mind.

If it were someone else, perhaps they would not pay attention to such spontaneous thoughts, but he was different; he was recognized by the world’s will.

These random thoughts could well be guidance from the world’s will.

If his guess was correct, then once these temples became real, that’s when true calamity would unfold.

"No matter what, I’ll first focus on improving my strength. I’m almost ready to break through to the Sixth Order Peak," he said.
