Incredible Sect Simulator

Following behind Zhang Tianqun was the Void Celestial Sword Spirit.

She directly spread her Xuanyuan Sword Form, a hazy silver-white light rising around her, and in an instant, she entered the Ancient Ruins, precisely locating Lu Ping’s direction.

With a swoosh, she flew into Lu Ping’s Storage Ring.

After entering the ruins and seeing Lu Ping, Zhang Tianqun smiled bitterly.

"Lu Daoist, after you entered here earlier, I tried several times to contact you but failed. We were worried that something might have happened to you here. Luckily, it was just a false alarm that gave us a scare."

Honestly, the worry about Lu Ping was one thing; otherwise, they couldn’t have entered here.

After all, they were not clear about what existed here and what dangers were hidden, and they needed to come inside to explore carefully.

On the other hand, there is the concern that Lu Ping, having entered first, might out of self-interest scout around and pocket some Treasures.

Such suspicions are perfectly natural.

"This place is very mysterious."

Lu Ping retracted the Great Five Elements Breaking Forbidden Technique, and the opened gap swiftly healed, restoring to its original state.

The entire Restriction Array closed again, isolating itself from the world.

"I just scouted around and found some oddities. You should have a look yourselves."

Lu Ping didn’t say much, pointing to the grand hall not far away.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Tianqun and his group initially wanted to inquire further, but seeing Lu Ping’s response, they didn’t ask anymore and directly headed towards the grand hall.

As they entered the hall, they also sensed the eerie atmosphere and quickly noticed the Spirit Fruit and Spirit Tea on the table.

"Lu Daoist, you seem quite leisurely."

At first glance, Zhang Tianqun thought the Spirit Fruit and Spirit Tea were placed there by Lu Ping.

The next moment, Lu Ping’s words caused him to tense up.

"Those things were already there when I came in."

As Lu Ping finished speaking, Zhang Tianqun reacted immediately.

"What?"

He raised an eyebrow and moved closer to Lu Ping, cautiously surveying the surroundings.

Meanwhile, Liu Taixuan and his two companions also tensed up, drawing closer to each other, noting the dynamics of the surrounding environment.

The atmosphere became extremely quiet at this moment.

They clearly hadn’t expected that the fresh Spirit Fruit and Spirit Tea on the table weren’t placed by Lu Ping.

If not Lu Ping, then who could it be?

This doubt simultaneously surfaced in their minds.

"The oddity lies here. Not only the tea and fruit but also the flooring, seating, columns, all areas are spotless, as if someone resides here and cleans regularly."

Lu Ping spoke slowly.

The scene here is indeed strange, clearly indicating that someone lives here.

But then, where is this person?

"This matter is peculiar."

Zhang Tianqun furrowed his brows.

"I definitely want to see what’s truly here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he attempted to extend his Divine Sense to explore, but the next moment he was stunned.

"Divine Sense is being suppressed."

The Celestial Academy’s headmaster hadn’t anticipated that even after entering the ruins, he wouldn’t be able to use Divine Sense for extensive exploration.

No wonder after Lu Ping came in, he hadn’t responded for a while.

It turns out he was attracted by the abnormal environment here, spending time exploring, though unclear what he found.

"Lu Daoist, have you found anything else?"

Zhang Tianqun looked contemplative, glancing at Lu Ping.

At the same time, Jiuhua True Monarch and the others also expanded their Divine Sense, trying to explore the surroundings, but like Zhang Tianqun, found it was blocked, unable to scan the area.

The trio also looked toward Lu Ping, seeking any discoveries he might have.

"You know, I haven’t been here long, so I’m not fully clear on the situation here."

Lu Ping shook his head, "We still need a thorough investigation."

"That’s the only way."

Zhang Tianqun nodded.

The five discussed to avoid being alone and unable to handle dangers, deciding to act collectively for a meticulous exploration of the surroundings.

Leaving the grand hall, led by Lu Ping, they began their investigation of the environment outside the hall.

Just as they commenced this operation, a low roar echoed by their ears, the sound approaching fast.

"What sound is this?"

The Nascent Soul Cultivators have sensitive perception. Upon hearing the sound, Zhang Tianqun raised an eyebrow and looked toward its origin.

Lu Ping also showed alertness, like Jiuhua True Monarch and others, all looking in the same direction.

What they saw was a massive silhouette rapidly rushing towards them from the horizon, emitting a series of hisses.

"It’s a Demon Beast!"

Liu Taixuan exclaimed, swiftly summoning his Magical Artifact.

"Given the place has been sealed so long, how can there still be a Demon Beast!"

Xu Dezhi muttered softly, immediately preparing to respond like Lu Ping and the others.

Whoosh.

As the beast approached, raising its upper body, the group finally saw clearly.

A gigantic snake-like Demon Beast, over a thousand zhang long, with a thickness of six or seven zhang, covered in silver-white scales, with a black horn on its head.

Its aura was openly revealed, at least Fourth-Layer Nascent Soul Stage.

This is a Tier Five Demon Beast!

"It’s the Black-Horned Silver Serpent!"

Zhang Tianqun instantly recognized the serpent’s nature, showing fear in his eyes.

"Everyone, be careful, dodge quickly!"

Xu Dezhi spoke, warning everyone to avoid confrontation with the beast if possible.

Whoosh!

Yet Xu Dezhi’s wish was not shared by the Black-Horned Silver Serpent, which immediately opened its mouth, gathering powerful Demonic Power and releasing a fierce breath of Demonic Power.

This breath was a full two zhang wide, big enough to engulf them all.

A soul-crushing force came crashing, sweeping towards the five.

This power attack could annihilate Nascent Soul Cultivators instantly if unprotected.

Lu Ping moved swiftly, unleashing Void Celestial Fifth Rank Divine Light, transforming into a five-colored divine light, escaping a lengthy distance in an instant, evading the strike.

Meanwhile, Jiuhua True Monarch and the others also reacted quickly, each utilizing their special Secret Skills, narrowly dodging the attack.
