Chapter 778.1 [Land of Training?]
Because the ancient ruins were extremely dangerous, the three major groups, the Eight Desolations, the Snow Plains and the Battle Song were all actively recruiting helpers.
It wasn’t just Lord Ling Yun and Tu Hai.
Heaven Rankers were still continuously arriving at the Snowfield Camp.
Therefore, the plan to form large exploratory groups before venturing into the ancient ruins was still in the preparation phase and the actual exploration was scheduled for about a month later, maybe even even longer. Of course Yue Yang would definitely not wait for them, moreover he believed that the people from the Central Palace Hall would not wait that long either. The treasures in the ancient ruins were of course on a first come first serve basis and since Yue Yang had made his way here, he would definitely not allow for these treasures that he had reserved for himself to be taken away by other people.
He got Lord Ling Yun and the others to stay behind while Yue Yang himself went out to scout for more information.
According to the information that Fatty Hai and the others had obtained back during the day, under the cover of the night, Yue Yang quietly made his way towards the distant ancient ruins.
Surrounding the entrance that led to the ancient ruins which had previously been hidden inside the mountain range, there were griffin knights of the Central Palace Hall stationed everywhere, furthermore there were a number of teams patrolling around as well. The three major groups, namely the Eight Wilderness, the Snow Plains, and the Battle Song had also stationed a small number of people nearby, supervising each other at the entrance. These 3 small teams were all led by a Heaven Ranker respectively.
With Yue Yang’s current strength and talent for disguise, it would simply be impossible for any of the people on guard to detect him, unless there was a hidden Heaven Realm expert with strength of a Divine Innate around. However out of prudence, Yue Yang still stayed at the periphery of the entrance for more than ten minutes, and used his phantom to hide into the darkness to explore the surroundings. Only when he was certain that there were no experts from the Central Palace Hall hiding anywhere did he summon Hui Tai Lang and slipped through the guards. The surrounding guards, regardless those on patrol or stationed at the entrance, none of them felt Yue Yang passing by, if it were any other Heaven Ranker, they might have felt a gust of wind, but Yue Yang, who was wearing the “Flash” half-Divine ring was so fast that even Yue Yang himself was surprised by it.
With a single thought, he vanished and reappeared thousands of meters away.
The entrance that was guarded heavily was actually not a real entrance, but just a passageway set up by the Central Palace Hall.
The real entrance to the ancient ruins was a square.
There are numerous statues situated all over the square, there were statues of all races and each was marked with information about the life of the owner.
Despite the different levels of strength, these statues all had one thing in common, and that all of them had at least successfully passed 3 levels.
Inscribed on an obelisk located right at the center of the square were the words, “The world inside is not simply a treasure trove, but a testing ground for the experts of today.”
Inside, it’s divided into ten levels. For every level passed, a certain reward is earned.
If you pass three levels, you will be recognized as a qualifier. Regardless of race or status, if you fail to pass the first three levels, you will still be considered as unqualified.
If you manage to pass all the levels, after the trial you will be rewarded with a treasure that can change the fate of a warrior in the Heaven Realm…
“”Change the fate of a Heaven Ranker?” Could it be, could it be God’s blood?” At this moment, the one standing in front of the obelisk and sighing repeatedly was not Yue Yang but another uninvited guest. This man, who came earlier than Yue Yang, had recorded all the information on the statues that identified as belonging to the Central Palace Hall, and was now standing in front of the obelisk and laughing smugly: “When the others are still vying against each other in the Central Palace Hall and are unable to free themselves to come here, I have come. Haha, this is fate. My destiny will start to change at this moment, if I grab hold of this chance, in the future I will no longer be a mere Deputy Palace Lord who has to lick others shoes, but I will become a Palace Lord, even a Grand Palace Lord! As long as I get that drop of God’s blood, those guys who have been acting all high and mighty, watch how I will trample them underfoot. Six thousand years have passed; my chance has come once again, this time, I definitely won’t miss it again!” , “……” the figure of six thousand years allowed Yue Yang to sharply capture a bit of information.
Perhaps, this guy had something to do with the Battle of the Heaven Realm back in the days of the Prison Emperor.
How else would his past opportunity happen to be precisely 6,000 years ago as well?
After careful observation by the wise eyes of Yue Yang, he realised that this guy in front of him was not the man who shone like a god who had appeared after the destruction of Rizhao City that day, but someone else. Compared to that man, the man in front of him looks somewhat similar and has a similar aura, but his strength is far from him and he does not have such an egotistical aura, he just tries to imitate that man who shone like a god.
The man who claimed to be a Deputy Palace Lord was still cautious, he radiated a dark energy wave and skillfully scanned his surroundings.
Only when he confirmed that there was no one around him did he confidently step towards the glittering teleportation array that was also located in the center of the square.
Only after he entered the teleportation array and teleported away did Yue Yang emerge from the darkness.
With Hui Tai Lang trailing behind him.
The teleportation array started up again.
The two of them, Yue Yang and Hui Tai Lang, instantly teleported to a strange world.
In this world, there are countless powers of law at work, Yue Yang had never sensed a place that was governed by so many powers of law before, and if he was not in a dangerous situation, he would have tried to carefully observe the power of laws here, hoping to glean of some useful information that could help him to gain enlightenment in his own power of law.
There was a huge stone monument at the other end of the teleportation array.
Above, apart from the words, Rain Valley.
There were also a dozen or so lines of Heaven Runes, stating the rules that those who entered must follow.
When Yue Yang saw this, he immediately rejoiced. For it was only now that he understood that this ancient ruin was not created to deliberately kill warriors below the Heaven Rank, but was rather a special kind of trial. For the first batch of explorers who had entered, none of them were well versed in Heaven Runes and were unable to read the restrictions, therefore breaking the rules here and were hounded by the power of laws that governed this place. In this Rain Valley, apart from being not allowed to fly, they were also prohibited from summoning and monsters.
Any warrior who tried to fly would fall hard to the ground, and the higher he flew, the harder he would fall.
Any warrior who attempted to summon any beasts would be attacked by three replicas of the summoned beasts… This restriction on summoning, could be said to be a special kind of training, only a person with the highest confidence in themselves and their war beasts would dare to summon a war beast in this Rain Valley.
It was a pity the mercenaries who entered earlier didn’t know how to read the Heaven Runes, what a tragedy.
What probably had happened would be, as soon as they came in, they summoned their own war beasts, and after seeing that clones of their summoned beast had come to attack them, they would most likely have summoned their strongest war beast to fight.
Such an outcome would undoubtedly be even more tragic then suicide, what’s more the first batch of mercenaries to enter were all unaware of the law that forbade flight, they would most likely have chosen to fly into the air during critical moments to escape, but the higher they flew, the harder they fell, accelerating their impeding deaths.
Six kilometers away, that Deputy Palace Lord was striking out with a bit of annoyance, slaying three Heaven Rank Golden Flying Dragons.
Although the three Heaven Rank 1 Golden Flying Dragons were easily killed, they were all duplicated shadows produced by the power of law, and had no corpses at all, turning into phantoms upon death and disappearing. As soon as the Deputy Palace Lord who had summoned the Golden Flying Dragon to be his mount finished killing the 3 clones, three more Golden Flying Dragons appeared on the horizon and flew towards him, they were exactly identical to the ones he had just killed.
In this Rain Valley, as long as the summoned beasts were still present, then the law will never stop replicating clones to attack the summoner.
When Yue Yang saw this, he had a hard time holding in a sudden urge to laugh crazily.
Again, it was the lack of knowledge that was to blame.
Not being able to read the Heaven Runes, not knowing the true meaning of the inscription on the obelisk, the result would be this wretched situation……
