Chapter 399 - 231: Senior Brother Feng Tan, Your Junior Has Reached Core Formation Middle Stage!
After making contact with the founding ancestor of the Foundation Establishment Sect who provided the intelligence, Qi Chuan and Feng Tan obtained firsthand information about the Tier Three Ruins within the Little Black Abyss.
Afterward, the two of them ventured into the Little Black Abyss.
The Little Black Abyss is a notorious dangerous land in the surrounding region, home to many formidable Demon Beasts. The ground here is somewhat peculiar, exhibiting a pitch-black color, and everywhere gives off a wild and fierce atmosphere.
Following the information from the founding ancestor of that Foundation Establishment Sect, Qi Chuan and Feng Tan delved into the Little Black Abyss, heading straight to the location of the Tier Three Ruins.
During the process, they tried to avoid the Demon Beasts as much as possible. Those they couldn’t avoid, they swiftly dispatched.
After some time, the two finally arrived near the Tier Three Ruins.
At this moment, Qi Chuan and Feng Tan stood on a small hill, looking at a black mountain range in front of them. At this time, amidst the black mountains, faint traces of broken array patterns emerged, revealing a damaged ancient array.
Although the array was damaged, it still had some residual power. It was likely this damaged ancient array that stopped the founding ancestor of the Foundation Establishment Sect, who couldn’t break it, and had no choice but to offer this Tier Three Ruins to the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect.
Through the veiling of those array light patterns, some pavilions and palaces could be faintly seen inside, part of the buildings within the ruins.
"It seems it indeed is a Tier Three Ruins without a doubt." After observing for a while, Feng Tan said to Qi Chuan.
"But the array outside must be removed to enter the ruins," said Qi Chuan.
"Leave it to me, I brought some array-breaking artifacts," Feng Tan took on the task of breaking the array.
He was very experienced in exploring ruins.
Understanding that array-breaking artifacts are essential for exploring ruins, he certainly didn’t come unprepared this time.
Subsequently, Feng Tan took out the array-breaking artifacts and began to break the array.
Seeing that Feng Tan had a way to break the array, Qi Chuan helped out on the side, supporting Feng Tan in breaking the array.
Under their joint efforts, the already broken array was gradually being unraveled.
Soon, the array was finally broken, and a smile appeared on both Qi Chuan and Feng Tan’s faces as they were about to enter the ruins.
Ssshhh!
But just at this moment, suddenly a whistling sound came from the distant sky.
Qi Chuan and Feng Tan immediately looked up, and then saw, in the distant sky, two Escape Lights were rapidly approaching, both exuding two powerful Core Formation Middle Stage spiritual pressures.
Qi Chuan and Feng Tan exchanged a glance.
"There are actually two Core Formation Middle Stage, I wonder who they are?" Feng Tan’s expression didn’t look very good.
Coming neither early nor late, but right when the array was broken, no one’s mood would be good.
Qi Chuan remained calm, observing the developments.
Soon, the two Escape Lights landed not far from Qi Chuan and Feng Tan, their radiance dissipating, revealing two figures.
One of them, Qi Chuan was quite familiar with.
It was the Core Formation Middle Stage candidate from the Yang Mountain Sect of the Yin Yang Mansion, seen during the Three Sects competition.
As for the other one, his aura was slightly weaker than the former, but he was also a powerful Core Formation Middle Stage True Master.
"Yin Yang Mansion people?" Feng Tan’s face turned even worse.
The current situation was almost the worst.
The Tier Three Ruins was not only known to the Yin Yang Mansion, who came to intervene, but also in the situation where they had first broken the array, there was nothing more frustrating than this.
"What a coincidence, isn’t it?" The Core Formation Middle Stage candidate from the Yang Mountain Sect of the Yin Yang Mansion, named Yang Xuantian, once landed, glanced over Qi Chuan and Feng Tan, raised his eyebrows slightly, and with a teasing tone said, "I didn’t expect, Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect’s friends to be here as well. What, are you also interested in this Tier Three Ruins?"
Upon hearing this, Feng Tan didn’t respond, merely giving Yang Xuantian a cold glance.
It was plain to see that the array outside the Tier Three Ruins had been broken by him, Yang Xuantian’s words were purely to provoke, no need to respond.
Seeing Feng Tan not responding, Yang Xuantian didn’t mind, just chuckled, then his gaze shifted, landing on Qi Chuan, and with apparent surprise, said: "Oh, isn’t this Master Qi Chuan, who in the Three Sects competition made a great impression, defeating Qing Jianzi of the Cangjian Pavilion and even my mansion’s Song Dan, didn’t expect we meet again in such circumstances?"
"Hmm, hello." Qi Chuan’s expression was calm, nodding as he replied.
Yang Xuantian’s mouth couldn’t help but twitch.
However, he quickly composed his emotions, his gaze shifting between Qi Chuan and Feng Tan, speaking: "At the moment, your Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect and our Yin Yang Mansion have both discovered this Tier Three Ruins, so how about we come to an arrangement? How shall we distribute it?"
"You also know, even if you were the first to break the array, since our Yin Yang Mansion has discovered it and sent people over, naturally we can’t give it up either."
"And presently, you have a Core Formation Middle Stage and a Core Formation Early Stage, while on our side, there are two Core Formation Middle Stage, so the strength doesn’t seem quite equal..."
While speaking, most of Yang Xuantian’s gaze fell on Feng Tan.
Although in the previous Three Sects competition, Qi Chuan greatly shone, earning himself a fair amount of fame, and wouldn’t be easily overlooked, but in Yang Xuantian’s eyes, he is, after all, a Core Formation Early Stage Cultivator.
