Chapter 1337: Chapter 1436: Before the Ruins

"So, what are we waiting for? All four pieces of the treasure map are here. Let’s see where the fire is." Zhai Zunzhe smiled as he looked at everyone, finally stopping at Qin Feng, "My little friend, although you have the treasure map of the Skyfire, I must remind you, the Skyfire artifact is indeed very dangerous. Given your strength, it’s best to hand over the treasure map to us. Don’t do this alone."

"Giving you the map, I’m afraid you’d kill me without hesitation." Qin Feng laughed blandly, "If you give me all the maps, it’s not much different from me giving you the path."

"Give you the map? The Death God immediately cast a cold gaze over.

"What are you afraid of? I’m the weakest. Are you afraid I would play tricks?" Qin Feng touched his nose.

"Fine, if you dare play tricks.

"The Skyfire ruins can’t be in such a desolate place. If I find you’re playing games with us, hmph," Xing Ruixian looked at Qin Feng.

"Fools, if the Spirit here was strong enough to attract Bai Feng to the court, I’m afraid it would have already been discovered, and it’d be your turn to treasure hunt?" Qin Feng’s cold voice was sarcastic.

"Alright then. They’re all here. Let’s have a look!" Sima Mo waved his sleeve and was the first to walk down.

However, when people entered the so-called "barren land," they found that the canyon they once saw seemed endless. Even as they ventured deeper, they couldn’t see the outline of the gorge.

"Hm? What’s going on? Sima Mo frowned.

"This could be a magic array. It seems like we’re moving forward, but in fact, I fear we’ve been going in circles." Lan Yueliang’s voice came at this moment.

"No way. We could see the path clearly earlier." Xing Ku immediately retorted.

"See clearly? Do you know magic arrays? Lan Yueliang immediately looked at Xing He with a mocking gaze, "Jian Yi, is there a guide on the treasure map?"

The others also looked at Qin Feng, as they had all handed the treasure maps to him.

"I’ll lead you inside. You can’t destroy the bridge after crossing the river by killing me." Qin Feng warned, as he didn’t lead the way before, for once the magic array was crossed, the treasure map would be useless, and he was thinking about how to protect himself.

"Don’t worry. We are obliged to charge through the ruins together. Can we do it?"

"Hurry, I can’t wait any longer."

"Lead the way."

Someone impulsively said. Xing Guo chuckled to himself: Don’t destroy the bridge after crossing? We’ll see later, hmph.

"Let’s go then. Follow up. This magic array becomes invisible after ten meters." Qin Feng touched his nose and finally moved forward.

I don’t know how long it took before Qin Feng caught his breath to continue advancing. Meanwhile, everyone felt that as they progressed, the Spirit grew stronger and denser. Later on, it completely misted, and the thick spirit fog had visibility of less than 20 meters!

It was pure Spirit energy.

"If I practiced here for a few years, I would make great progress!" Xing He exclaimed just upon landing.

"Ha ha, if you obtained the creation’s Spiritual Body, your combat power would double, and your lifespan increased. What sense does it make to improve one and a half stars? Pointless. Sima Mo sneered.

"Hmph!" Xing He was dissatisfied with the waving sleeve. He was held in high esteem in the Fu Sect. Now, someone dared to mock him like this. But Sima Mo was so strong, Xing could only withstand it.

Indeed, most of them aren’t simple in status.

"Jian Yi, what’s the path now?" Sima Mo suddenly looked at Qin Feng, eager.

"I don’t know the road ahead. Let’s see how to get there." Qin Feng shook his head, pulling out the four treasure maps and tossing them directly.

"Hm?"

Sima Mo, Zhai Zunzhe, and others were stunned, then transformed into shadows rushing towards the treasure maps.

"Let’s go!"

Qin Feng grabbed Lan Yue and suddenly moved forward. This magic array was very curious. The two people ahead were just ten meters apart, but the ones behind couldn’t see them. However, Qin Feng’s voice could be heard.

"There’s a need for defense. Let’s move first. I erased the last line. You are all well-versed renowned figures. If you walk slowly, you’ll find your way out. I won’t accompany you. Haha."

"Damn it!"

"That little rascal is a trickster. Kill him." Sima Mo, Zhai Zun, and others were furious.

"Hm, whether to kill or not doesn’t matter. Finding the way is important." Gu Yuyan’s face darkened, but he looked at Yin Xia, who had been silent all along, "Yin Xia, it seems you have profound research in Daoism, and this last tip might get us out, right?"

Yin Xia shook his head, "The magic array here is too mysterious to see through. But I can probably guess a few routes. You can try with me, one by one. Of course, you might need to take some detours."

"Haha, are you willing to take detours? Postponing is better than doing nothing. Ancient Jade Stone laughed.

"Yes, let’s get out. Hmph, anyhow, the little swindler with the sword can’t obtain the creation’s Spiritual Body."

"Hm, experts in the Origin Scripture have raised doubts about the creation’s spiritual embodiment. What’s the qualification of the True Essence Mirror?"

Mocking from the others.

Contesting wealth relies on strength. At the end of the day, you either withdraw or perish. There’s only one winner!

Everyone was resolute.

Danger? In this world where the strong are respected, one cannot attain such steps without countless dangers and experiences.

At the end of the magic array, Qin Feng and Lan Yueliang perceived a change in space and then appeared in a new world.

"It’s beautiful." The blue moon gazed forward, seeing verdant and lush ancient wood forest, a clear small river crisscrossing like a dragon lying on a platter.

Still within the Canghong Mountains, with not much change in position, but who could have thought, aside from the wondrous array, about what’s here?

"I fear that this person’s power far exceeds the invincible demons, and his accomplishments on the Sky-reaching Path also far surpass those of the invincible demons." Qin Feng mused to himself.

"Hm?"

Qin Feng gazed far into the distance.

Bao Tu regarded this ancient forest as the most edge part of the Skyfire Ruins. Even within the ancient forest, there are all sorts of rare opportunities. Naturally, the most precious is the Iron Bridge World. Initially, he passed the Iron Bridge World’s trial and luckily obtained the creation’s Spirit.

However, if you want to breakthrough the Iron Bridge World, you at least need to return to the power of the Origin Crystal. And passing the Iron Bridge World trial is even harder than reaching the sky.

Further inside, the Mist Sea! It’s extremely treacherous. Even the treasure carver wouldn’t dare to break in.

The center of the Mist Sea is a dazzling, magnificent Divine Mansion that can be seen from afar, even if not entering the Mist Sea.

"Jian Yi, where are we heading?" Lan Yue looked at Qin Feng. Here, she didn’t know what to do next.

"In the Iron Bridge World, there is the creation’s Spiritual Body. Of course, head in that direction. Follow me, Qin Feng said.

The two of them immediately moved forward.

Qin Feng didn’t fly. The Skyfire Map contained a warning. Walking on two legs is safer.

In the mysterious ancient forest, Qin Feng and Lan Yue traveled through the hills and woods. Layers of spiritual ripples surrounded them, exploring the nearby area.

They weren’t moving very fast, and were very cautious. In the blink of an eye, a day had passed. It was very quiet along the way. They hadn’t encountered any strange beasts or danger.

"Jian Yi, how much longer to reach the Iron Bridge World?" Lan Yueliang couldn’t help but ask.

"At this pace, we’ll probably walk another day." Qin Feng said.

"I think there’s no danger here. Why not fly with me? It’s too slow."

"Be careful, don’t rush." Qin Feng disagreed, touching his nose.

The death rate at ruins like these is very high, having been through so much. From the treasure map, it’s known that there are few beasts in the Skyfire Ruins, but each one exceeds the range of the Yuan Dynasty, almost deadly if encountered. So, it’s not safe to fly. It’s too high; other beasts can’t find you. It’s safer to sneak through the forest.

Moreover, the mountain and forest often lead to opportunities, which is a chance to be seized.

They spent most of the time on the road, pausing occasionally to rest and eat something. Mainly because Lan Yue’s constitution was too weak to match Qin Feng’s physique.

"Hm?"

"What’s this?"
