Chapter 1677: Barging into the Ancient Pavilion

It was approaching noon, and the snow-white birds pulled the saint carriage wrapped in starlight and drove toward the Wind Atrium of the Inner South Yard .

Only seven figures followed the saint carriage . Zhang Ruochen, Big Beard, Blindman, and the four others were all covered by shimmery starry armor . They rode a metal beast that looked like an earthworm and carried a spear with the width of one’s wrist .

When the earthworm moved, it would create loud booms .

According to the rules of the Truth Godly Palace, only cultivators from worlds in the top 1,000 of the Saints Merits Rank could enter the Inner Four Yards . However, with the Thousand Star Civilization’s power, it wasn’t hard to give Zhang Ruochen a suitable identity and take him in .

“I saw that there were many Thousand Star Civilization cultivators in the God-Naming Platform,” Zhang Ruochen said . “How come only we are going to the Wind Atrium?”

The thin Blindman on the right didn’t like to talk . It was as if he didn’t hear Zhang Ruochen .

On his left, Big Beard explained, “Not anyone can go into the Wind Atrium . If a weakling goes in, it’s no different from suicide . ”

The so-called Wind Atrium was really just a barren hill . It was only a few hundred meters tall and didn’t look majestic at all .

After coming to the Wind Atrium, one could look up and see a dilapidated ancient pavilion . There was no foliage surrounding it, making it look lonely so that it gave off a sad and worn feeling .

The stone steps from the bottom of the hill to the pavilion were almost buried in dirt . If one looked closely, one would see the traces left by time .

Strong cultivators from various ancient civilizations were mostly gathered below the Wind Atrium .

Other than the Tianchu Civilization’s camp, only a few creatures came from the other civilizations . Each one was a top figure, at least at the fourth step Saint King Realm .

Behind Fairy Tianchu’s white peacock carriage, countless creatures were gathered . They seemed to be more than the other civilizations put together .

Most of them weren’t from the Tianchu Civilization . Nor were they helpers invited by Fairy Tianchu . Instead, they’d come voluntarily from all types of worlds .

These creatures only came to the Wind Atrium because of Fairy Tianchu’s vow . Most of them were young people who were blind with love . Of course, there were also true strong figures .

They were willing to risk their lives for her at no cost . Fairy Tianchu obviously wouldn’t drive them away .

Other than the many ancient civilizations, Zhang Ruochen also saw some godly disciples . They were either born in the ancient civilizations or had close relationships with them .

When the Great Senior arrived, Zhang Ruochen was grouped with the other spatial cultivators . They stood in the center of the ancient civilization cultivators . Two silver giants with battle axes protected them .

It was obvious that they wouldn’t be forced to attack the palace cluster or prehistoric monsters .

They would only have to attack when truly necessary .

There were very few spatial cultivators . It wasn’t strange that they were treated like this .

Other than the six spatial cultivators, there were also some formation masters gathered nearby . They were the protected group .

Great Senior’s entire body glittered gold . He had the temperament of a sect leader . Chuckling, he said, “The cultivators of the Heaven and Demon God Field cliques already entered two hours ago . Since we’re all here, let’s go too . ”

It wasn’t true that you could get the divine spring the sooner you went in .

Instead, those who went in first would fight the monsters first . They would definitely be clearing up the path for the later cultivators .

The hill that seemed to only be a few hundred meters tall actually gave off huge pressure when one started climbing it . It felt like an invisible saintly might pressing on them, or rather…divine might .

After entering the pavilion, their horizon broadened . It was cloudy and wispy before them . Holy Qi filled the air .

If not for the saint blood and corpses of prehistoric monsters on the ground, they might think that they’d arrived in a divine land . Clearly, there’d been a huge battle here a while ago . All the monsters had been cleared out .

The Amazing Little Taoist poked his head out of Zhang Ruochen’s sleeve . With a shocked gaze, he used Spiritual Power to ask Zhang Ruochen, “The folded space was actually opened?”

“Yes . ” Zhang Ruochen nodded .

In the distance, there were palaces one after another . They rose up between the tall peaks and unknown lands covered in black Qi .

Deep within the palace cluster, terrifying screams or heavy battle booms would sound occasionally . The land was too vast . One couldn’t distinguish where the sounds came from .

A Saint King with flesh wings shot into the air . He wanted to fly to a height and check what had happened deep within the palaces .

“Get down here!” Great Senior yelled . “Do you want to die?”

The Saint King paled in fear . He quickly pulled in his wings to return to the ground .

Suddenly, a black crack appeared above his head . Like a huge demon’s mouth, it bit the man’s body in half .

Thud!

Only two bloody legs fell from the sky .

Sharp and cold wind blew through the sky when the black crack appeared . It howled and even the Saint Kings got goosebumps at this moment . Their legs couldn’t help but tremble .

The area was silent . No one even dared to breathe loudly .

A moment later, the black crack vanished .

Looking at the two bloody legs, many creatures who’d just come to try it out started thinking about retreating . They didn’t dare to continue .

Beside Zhang Ruochen, a voice rang out . “What exactly is that black crack? Could it be a spatial crack?”

The speaker was Li Qinghai, one of the six spatial cultivators .

Monk Pushan shook his head . “I don’t think so . The other side of a spatial crack is the void, but that black crack was filled with eerie Qi . ”

Mo Xiaogu, the little girl from the Space Godly Palace, grew fearful . “If we don’t fly into the air, the black crack won’t appear, right?”

Gu Feng grinned . “Hehe, little girl, what are you afraid of? Come to your Lord Gu’s side . I’ll protect you . ”

Mo Xiaogu’s fear grew heavier . She scooted toward Li Qinghai and Zhang Ruochen, hiding behind them . She was afraid of getting approached by Gu Feng .

He’d been staring at Mo Xiaogu’s chest, but his vision was suddenly blocked by Zhang Ruochen . His eyes suddenly darkened . “Hey, I really couldn’t tell that you also cultivate space when we first met . How about you show us your abilities?”

“There’s nothing to show… Oh, Great Senior and Fairy Tianchu already opened up the path . We should be going in deeper now!”

Zhang Ruochen ignored Gu Feng and walked forward .

Li Qinghai followed Zhang Ruochen, warning him, “Brother Lin, Gu Feng seems to have something against you . You have to be careful . This man has a horrible name and he’s very cruel . He can do anything . ”

“Thank you for the warning . ”

Zhang Ruochen’s impression of Li Qinghai improved . He began conversing shortly after . “Brother Li, since you aren’t a disciple of the Space Godly Palace, how did you step onto this path?”

He rarely met spatial cultivators, so he was very curious .

Li Qinghai chuckled . “I’m not a disciple of the Space Godly Palace, but an ancestor of my family was once a powerful spatial cultivator in the Space Godly Palace .

“He always wanted to find an heir in the family, but the Way of Space is honestly too hard . If you aren’t extremely talented, you won’t be able to comprehend the first rule of space in the Ninth Change of the Fish-Dragon Realm and meld it into your saint soul .

“I was lucky to succeed, so the ancestor named me as his heir . ”

“Since your ancestor is a cultivator of the Space Godly Palace, why didn’t you join them?” Zhang Ruochen asked .

Li Qinghai shook his head and chuckled . “To be honest, my ancestor said that I’m not talented enough in the Way of Space . It can only be auxiliary help instead of my focus . Otherwise, I’ll never be able to reach the Supreme Saint Realm in my life . ”

On the side, Mo Xiaogu piped up, “Yeah, yeah . Focusing on the Way of Space makes it too hard to improve your cultivation . I’m still stuck in the first step of Saint King Realm now . ”

Zhang Ruochen turned and glanced at Mo Xiaogu . Her face reddened immediately . Lowering her head, she said pitifully, “That pervert Gu Feng has impolite thoughts about me . I only feel safer if I’m following you two big brothers . Please help me!”

Li Qinghai patted his chest and said confidently, “Xiaogu, don’t worry . With me here, no one will bully you . ”

Zhang Ruochen didn’t speak . He was thinking about something .

She was a first step Saint King . Could she be so cowardly?

After all, people who were as easily frightened as Qing Mo were very rare .

This woman is probably pretending to be like that, Zhang Ruochen thought . She wants to use Li Qinghai and I against Gu Feng .

It was understandable that Mo Xiaogu did that .

But it did make her seem calculative . Anyway, he couldn’t treat her like she was an innocent little girl . Otherwise, he may be taken advantage of at a critical moment .

After the cultivators of the Ancient Civilization Sect walked a few miles into the palaces, they finally encountered prehistoric monsters . Both sides entered an intense fight .

Before this, all the saint fruit and medicine had been picked from the nearby palaces .

But when Zhang Ruochen looked forward, he saw huge green saint trees growing among the majestic pavilions . The branches were like dragons that spat out Holy Qi . The fruit on the trees emanated a mesmerizing fragrance .

Some cultivators fought with the monsters . Others attacked the formations outside the palaces, wanting to pick the fruit inside .

Zhang Ruochen was tempted . He wanted to pick the fruit too .

He could see that the fruit on the trees was extraordinary . If he could ingest some, he would definitely improve greatly and have a chance to reach the fourth step Saint King Realm here .
