Chapter 899 - 867: Five Element Spiritual Treasures, Puppet Guardians
No early bird without a worm.
Where is the treasure and opportunity in this ancient ruin?
This is what everyone is most concerned about.
Even though each dangerous area has been roughly explored and marked out.
Then the area where the treasure is should be somewhat understood.
"Hehe, everyone, look here."
Xu Dezhi chuckled lightly and pointed to a spot on the map.
Lu Ping and the others looked over, only to see a group of buildings with a small red dot on it.
"Do you all remember the Five Elements Spiritual Treasure? Not to deceive you, its location is right here."
With Dezhi’s words finished, everyone’s eyes lit up.
"Is there danger here too?"
Zhang Tianqun spoke, noticing the red dot.
"Indeed there is."
Xu Dezhi nodded slowly.
Upon hearing this, everyone wasn’t particularly surprised.
No risk, no gain.
If it were so easy to obtain the Five Elements Spiritual Treasure, it would be rather unusual.
"Then let’s head there first, what do you all think?"
Zhang Tianqun spoke, asking for the group’s opinion.
Lu Ping nodded noncommittally.
Liu Taixuan and Jiuhua True Monarch also agreed with a nod.
The Five Elements Spiritual Treasure was tremendously attractive to them.
Once they reached a consensus, the five of them set off immediately, flying toward the location of the Five Elements Spiritual Treasure.
It’s worth mentioning that the map drawn by Xu Dezhi can be carried along.
The area where the Five Elements Spiritual Treasure is located is roughly in the eastern part of this ancient ruin, not yet close to the central area.
In fact, they still haven’t figured out where the central area is.
The areas of the ruins explored are limited, so they can only follow the map to find their way.
All were cautious and moved carefully, consulting the map and trying to avoid areas marked with red dots.
Soon after, they stopped in an area.
This is a majestic and sacred ancient hall, bronze in color, appearing immensely majestic and imposing, like a primordial beast lying in this world, inspiring awe.
"According to the puppet rats’ exploration, the Five Elements Spiritual Treasure is within this bronze ancient hall."
Xu Dezhi slowed his pace, staring intensely at the ancient hall in front of him, a serious expression on his face.
Lu Ping and the others were all drawn to the ancient hall, instinctively extending their divine senses to explore inside, trying to determine the specific location of the Five Elements Spiritual Treasure in the hall, and whether it harbored dangers.
However, in the next moment, their divine senses were all blocked by the ancient hall, unable to penetrate an inch.
At the same time, Lu Ping also discovered that while the ancient hall was visible to the naked eye.
When using divine senses to explore, it was impossible to detect the presence of the ancient hall.
In other words, unless the hall was standing right before them, with divine senses being obstructed, it would be hard to know what the scene before them was.
"What’s this? Even divine senses are blocked; this ancient hall is quite interesting."
Zhang Tianqun similarly noticed this, showing a surprised expression.
If the edges of the ancient hall could be refined into magical artifacts, wouldn’t they also serve the purpose of blocking divine senses?
"Daoist Xu, please talk about the situation inside the hall first, it’s peculiar and entering rashly seems unwise."
Jiuhua True Monarch spoke, now highly apprehensive about the hidden dangers here.
Starting with the Black-Horned Silver Serpent, followed by the Nine-Clawed Red Bright Eagle, dealing with these two demon beasts was not easy.
Who knows what more formidable creatures will be encountered later?
Come here to seek treasures, safety naturally takes precedence.
The atmosphere here is filled with weirdness, extremely peculiar, it’s never wrong to proceed with caution.
"Haha, you’re all very cautious."
Xu Dezhi stroked his beard with a chuckle, squinted his eyes slightly and said.
"Though the divine senses can’t penetrate it, the puppet rats explored a bit after entering, and I discovered there seem to be guardian puppets inside this ancient hall."
"These guardian puppets still carry some mysterious power, I reckon once we enter the hall, it will likely disturb the puppets inside."
Upon speaking, Xu Dezhi brought up the matter of the puppet rats.
"After just entering the ancient hall, the three puppet rats were slain, the attack came from three guardian puppets."
"I gauged their power fluctuates around the Golden Core stage."
"Golden Core stage."
Liu Taixuan upon hearing this, merely nodded lightly, saying, "If all the guardian puppets are at the Golden Core stage, they pose no significant threat, any one of us can handle them."
With Liu Taixuan’s words finished, Jiuhua True Monarch and Zhang Tianqun also nodded.
Even if there were a hundred Golden Core stage guardian puppets, they truly posed no threat.
There’s no difficulty in dealing with them.
"If it’s that simple, that’s what I hope."
Xu Dezhi smiled, showing a solemn expression, "We’ll know the specifics once we enter the hall, if there’s any danger, remember to retreat promptly and not indulge in battle."
"That seems to be the best course of action."
Zhang Tianqun agreed with this proposal.
The puppet rats, upon entering the hall, triggered the guardian puppets and were killed immediately.
If more puppet rats were sent in, the result would be the same, better not waste time on that.
"No demon beast aura inside the hall, likely only those guardian puppets pose a threat."
The Void Celestial Sword Spirit sensed the aura within the ancient hall, failing to detect the presence of any creatures, immediately informed Lu Ping.
"You can still sense if there’s any creature within the hall?"
Lu Ping, hearing this, was somewhat surprised at the Void Celestial Sword Spirit’s ability.
Even a Nascent Soul cultivator’s divine senses couldn’t probe inside the hall, how did the Void Celestial Sword Spirit manage it?
It was probably not through divine sense but by some other means.
"I’m different from you."
The Void Celestial Sword Spirit only replied lightly, showing no intention of explaining the reason.
Seeing this, Lu Ping didn’t ask further, quietly nodding, also agreeing to explore inside the ancient hall.
The Five Elements Spiritual Treasure within the hall was a significant attraction to them.
Having come this far, they certainly wouldn’t retreat.
It’s entirely worth the adventure.
The five each summoned their magical artifacts, preparing for defense, slowly moving toward the ancient hall.
Though the hall door was open, when looking from outside, one’s vision couldn’t penetrate the door to see inside the hall.
It’s like a restriction was set here to block the view.
The five entered through the hall door, ahead seemingly empty, moving no differently than normal.
Once inside the hall and viewing the surrounding furnishings, the five quickly raised their eyebrows.
