Divine Ruins and the Primordial Imperial Race
The Divine Ruins was not far from Qing Yuan Ancient City!
Whoosh...
When Lin Wudao and the green-robed elder arrived on the spiritual boat, they saw that tens of thousands of living beings were already gathered outside the Divine Ruins, most of whom were mortals.
In this world, martial strength was supreme!
To people who did not have any cultivation resources, entering the Divine Ruins to try their luck might be an opportunity to change their destiny.
Lin Wudao had the same thought!
However, Lin Wudao’s target was much clearer than those running around mindlessly.
Once he entered the Divine Ruins, he could find the Emperor’s corpse accurately and without error.
Then, he could change his fate!
Lin Wudao’s heart was filled with infinite anticipation.
Buzzzzzz!
Lin Wudao stood on a mountain in the distance and looked around for a while. Then, finally, he focused his eyes on an ancient and magnificent divine boat.
There were two figures there!
One of them was naturally the unparalleled powerhouse who had previously broken through the Divine Ruins’ spatial barrier with his powerful weapon and opened up a passageway with his mighty power.
He was dressed in white, and his face was as clear as jade. Just by standing there, he gave off an invincible aura.
It was as if he could support the entire world by himself!
The other person was a young woman.
Her beauty was peerless, and her temperament was as cold as the moon goddess. Yet, she was dignified and, at a glance, like a banished immortal distinct from the mortal world.
“The Primordial Imperial race is indeed distinct from mortals!” Lin Wudao praised.
He shifted his gaze away and turned his attention to focus on that void tunnel in the Divine Ruins.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
At this moment, the ancient black cauldron hovered in the air, and the mighty aura it released seemed to suppress the entire world.
Even though the surrounding void was being destroyed, the passage remained unmoved.
Lin Wudao was filled with yearning for such unparalleled power!
Thump!
Just as he examined it, a divine light suddenly hit the ancient black cauldron. A vast and loud voice swept through the world.
It made everyone quiet down instantly!
“I’m the Empress, Jiang Lingyue!”
“Today, the Divine Ruins that descends once every three thousand years is here. So, according to the rules of the past, my Primordial Imperial Race invites everyone to head into the Divine Ruins to search for our Great Emperor’s body.
“Everything will follow the principle of autonomy and willingness!”
“Whoever can find our ancestor’s body and bring it out, we, the Primordial Imperial Race, will grant him three wishes.”
“Whether it’s the Emperor’s scripture, the Emperor’s weapons, or the medicine of immortality, we can fulfill your wishes!”
Jiang Lingyue’s voice rang.
Upon hearing this, all of the living beings immediately began to stir.
One by one, they began to rub their fists and wipe their palms, preparing to enter the Divine Ruins and accomplish the task.
The Divine Ruins contains great terror!
“The void tunnel created by our sovereign weapon can only last for half a day. In this half a day, no matter if you have any gains, you must come out on time.”
“Once you miss it, you’ll be trapped in the Divine Ruins for at least three thousand years!”
“In short, after entering the Divine Ruins, life, death, misfortune, and fortune depend on heaven’s will.”
Her cold voice resounded in all directions.
The crowd, who had long been unable to hold back, immediately surged towards that void tunnel when her voice fell, fighting to be the first to enter the Divine Ruins.
Seeing such a scene, Lin Wudao also strode forward and strolled over.
“Uncle Han, you can stay outside. I’ll go in alone.”
“Young Master, we can’t do that!”
“Don’t worry. I’ll be fine! Hand the spiritual boat over to me. Then, if there’s any danger, I’ll return,” he said calmly.
“Alright then!”
“Young Master, you must be careful. If something is amiss, don’t worry, and just run for your life. I will be waiting for you at the exit,” he said.
The green-robed elder passed a bag of spiritual stones to Lin Wudao and told him how to control the spiritual boat.
Whoosh!
After a round of testing, Lin Wudao steered the spiritual boat and turned into a stream of light, rushing into the Divine Ruins.
Not long after, over half of the tens of thousands of living beings that had gathered before disappeared.
Upon seeing this scene, Jiang Lingyue, on the divine boat, could not help but sigh.
In the depths of her eyes, a hint of anticipation appeared.
“Divine King, do you think we can find the Great Emperor’s body this time?”
...
“The Great Emperor entered the Divine Ruins 80000 years ago. After that, news of his death spread. To this day, the Primordial Imperial Race has exhausted all our efforts and efforts, but we still can’t find his corpse.”
“The Emperor Battle is about to start again. If we can’t find the body of the Great Emperor in this era, our Primordial Imperial Race will probably decline in the next generation.”
“At that time, what awaits us is a disaster.”
Her eyes were filled with worry.
To this, the white-robed Divine King sitting before her had a calm expression and maintained his composure.
“We will go with the flow!”
“Before coming, I had someone predict that this trip to the Divine Ruins would be fruitful.”
Really?
Jiang Lingyue’s spirit was lifted when she heard that!
“Divine King, you’re saying that we will be able to find the Great Emperor’s corpse this time?”
“Perhaps!”
...
“Sigh. I hope that we can succeed this time around. The Primordial Imperial Race can no longer wait,” she slightly clenched her fists.
Looking in the direction of the Divine Ruins, they were filled with infinite anticipation.
...
Lin Wudao was unaware of the conversation between Jiang Lingyue and the white-robed Divine King.
At this moment, he had already entered the Divine Ruins.
Everything was just as the green-robed elder said. Inside the Divine Ruins was filled with boundless chaotic mist. The heaven and earth were even dark and gloomy. Even the naked eye could not see beyond thirty feet.
After finding a hidden place, Lin Wudao took out the corpse map and looked at it.
[ Ding! The host has successfully arrived in the Divine Ruins! ]
[ Due to the host’s weak strength, you cannot protect yourself. A safe route to the Emperor’s corpse is being planned for the host. ]
[ Ding! Route planning completed! ]
[ Host, follow the route shown on the corpse map, and you will safely arrive at the burial site. ]
...
A cold notification sound suddenly rang in his mind.
Upon hearing this, Lin Wudao was overjoyed!
He was worried about avoiding danger and going to the burial site, and the system solved this problem.
Whoosh!
Then, he carefully steered the spiritual boat along the route indicated on the corpse map and gradually moved toward the location of Emperor Jiang Taichu’s corpse.
After about two hours, Lin Wudao finally arrived at the corner of a desolate cliff under the guidance of the corpse map.
In the deepest part of the cliff, he successfully found the body of the Great Emperor Jiang Taichu.
Jiang Taichu, a dignified middle-aged man!
He was sitting cross-legged under an ancient tree. Although he had been dead for 80000 years, his Great Emperor body showed no signs of decay, and divine light still flowed in it.
Waves of mighty intense pressure surged out like a great river.
“The Great Emperor is not invincible!” Lin Wudao sighed.
Afterward, he flipped his hand and took out the heaven burial bronze coffin!
Boom!
As soon as the heaven burial bronze coffin appeared, an ancient and boundless aura was released, instantly obliterating Jiang Taichu’s unparalleled mighty pressure. It vanished in a flash.
Seeing such a scene, Lin Wudao stopped hesitating. He went to Jiang Taichu and started to search.
After all, as a Great Emperor, he must have a lot of good things on him. He could ascend the ranks immediately if he could get some emperor’s scriptures or weapons.
However, to Lin Wudao’s disappointment, Jiang Taichu seemed well aware of his motive. He found nothing but an ordinary identity token when he searched his body.
“Did he transfer all the treasures in advance, knowing he would die?”
Lin Wudao did not understand.
Without hesitation, he took out the heaven burial bronze coffin and put Jiang Taichu’s body in it.
[ Ding! ]
[ Congratulations, you’ve successfully collected the Great Emperor’s corpse. You’ve received the following items... ]
Suddenly, a cold notification sound rang in his mind.
Upon hearing this, Lin Wudao’s spirits were lifted. Finally, the segment he had been looking forward to the most was here.
