Chapter 955: Burial Site
"Everyone, this altar is the place that we've been searching so arduously for," E Kuai declared, and everyone turned to him upon hearing this.
"Is this where the ultimate treasures of the Great Ruins reside, City Lord E?" Qin Yuan asked with a perplexed expression.
"I'm sure all of you have already sensed the tremendous bloodline aura in this place. Is this not already an exceptional treasure for us bodily refinement cultivators? On top of that, the set of remains that I mentioned is also in this pond," E KuaI replied, and everyone immediately looked down into the pond again upon hearing this.
Han Li peered into the pond like everyone else, but even with his eyesight, he was only able to see thick layers of bones beneath the blood, and he was unable to determine whether the holy remains were actually present inside.
"City Lord E, if the remains are in this pond, then does that mean that we have to go into the pond to retrieve them?" Fu Jian asked.
"That would no different from committing suicide. The bloodline power in this pond is beyond anything you can imagine, and if you try to enter it, you'll only be contributing your own bones to the piles of bones that are already at the bottom of the pond," E Kuai said.
"What should we do then?" Sun Tu asked.
"This pond is built upon a blood sacrificial array, and those five statues are the cornerstones of the array. I'm going to need all of the city lords to help me activate the array together and draw the set of remains out of the pond," E Kuai replied.
"City Lord E, I was hoping you would be able to enlighten me on something," Qin Yuan said with slightly furrowed brows.
"Go ahead, Fellow Daoist Qin," E Kuai prompted.
"None of us have entered the Great Ruins prior to this, so why is it that you seem so familiar with everything in here, City Lord E?" Qin Yuan asked.
