Chapter 221: Entering the God Demon Sect’s Ruins

“That… That’s a divine medicine!”
An elder exclaimed in disbelief.
Only to see, not far from the stone doors, a one-foot-tall spiritual herb sandwiched in a rock crack. Its branches were knotted like a true dragon, marked with the passage of time. Under the green leaves were five to six red fruits. The lingering medicinal fragrance from earlier was largely due to the presence of these fruits on this spiritual herb.
The grade of this spiritual herb wasn’t high, but its age was too old. Even if it wasn’t a divine medicine before, it should be one now.
“As expected of an ancient sect!”
“Hahaha, now I can have a chance to prolong my life!”
“This trip wasn’t in vain!”
“This spiritual herb is mine!”
Several white-haired elders laughed wildly. In the next moment, they turned into streams of light, quickly rushing toward the door.
Although their not weak auras indicated they were all peak-stage Nirvana Realm experts, their lives were nearing the end. After some time, they would pass away. Only obtaining that divine medicine gave them a chance to change fate.
However…
Just as the elders were about to step into the door, a massive hand, obscuring the sky, descended from the heavens with unparalleled power, as if a hand from the heavens grasping them in its palm.
Bang!
As it exerted a little force with its five fingers, in the next moment, the peak-stage Nirvana Realm elders were crushed. Even their souls couldn’t escape.
“Are you Nirvana Realm cultivators worthy of touching this divine medicine?”
A cold voice rang out. Immediately after, a Quasi-Saint Realm expert stepped out from the void, clothes fluttering as his pitch-black eyes indifferently glanced at the clumps of the blood mist.
Then he quickly entered the stone door. After entering, he casually grabbed and uprooted the spiritual herb, sealing it in a jade box.
“This is… The Starry Sky Holy Land’s elder?”
“The Starry Sky Holy Land? Aren’t they on the edge of the East Barrens?”
“Right! 1 didn’t expect they’d send people from such a distance.”
“Looks like the commotion caused by the appearance of the God Demon Sect is more exaggerated than we imagined!”
“It’s not just the Starry Sky Holy Land. It’s said some imperial emperors and Holy Lords of the East Barrens have personally come here too.”
“Hiss…”
“How terrifying!”
“I originally thought this would be a battle among the younger generation, but now it seems that even the older generation cannot avoid it.”
“How can you and 1 estimate the complete inheritance an ancient sect left behind? The value of these herbs alone shows it.”
After this scene, some weaker ones had already begun to consider retreating. Even the Holy Lords and Imperial Lords had personally stepped in. If ordinary cultivators like them participated, how could they survive? Not to mention some rogue cultivators who lacked backing and strength.
“Brother Su, I’ll go in first. After I’m out, if you need any help, just say so. 1 can lend you a hand,” the Eldest Prince meaningfully glanced at the Ninth Princess, then said with a smile.
The meaning behind his words wasn’t hard to understand.
The four tokens were now embedded in the stone doors. After he came out, it would just be fighting over the four tokens.
Initially, each token had its own owner. But after the God Demon Sect matter ended, who the tokens would finally fall to was hard to say.
“Then 1’11 thank Brother Feng in advance!” Su Chen gently nodded, also replying with a smile.
No matter if the Eldest Prince would help him in the end, he had to respond with a smile. After all, never hit someone who offered a smiling face. Moreover, Su Chen had to thank the Eldest Prince for standing up for Ye Ruxue earlier.
“Brother Su, after entering the God Demon Sect, remember to be cautious of… The Infinite Demon Sect… And the Dashang Empire.”
The Ninth Princess pondered for a moment before speaking. As soon as her voice fell, she flew toward the mountain gate.
“The Infinite Demon Sect and Dashang?” Su Chen muttered.
He raised his head looking at the two powerful forces not far away. The two factions had enmity with him. After entering this small world, it was almost certain that they would join forces to deal with him.
Although the Holy Son of the Infinite Demon Sect didn’t participate, they still had many Quasi-Saint Realm experts here. If those Quasi-Saint Realm experts really attacked him, it would be very troublesome.
“Hopefully some powerful imagination freaks will also go inside. I may give them a surprise.” Su Chen thought to himself.
For some reason, he missed Cao Yun now. If Cao Yun were here, when he came out, he might break through to the Saint Realm.
Soon after, he shook his head and looked at Ye Ruxue and the many Great Mystery Sacred Sect disciples behind him. “Let’s go in too.”
“Yes, Holy Son!” The disciples were in high spirits, nodding as they followed Su Chen toward the stone door.
“Su Chen has entered!”
The Dashang prince Shang Feng sent Yang Kai away and looked up at Su Chen’s back. Deep within his eyes, there was a glint of endless coldness.
“Your Highness… Should we follow them in too?” The hunchbacked elder behind Shang Feng took a step forward and asked in a low voice.
Although this old man appeared to be quite old and could potentially face his final moments at any time, even his steps seemed a bit unsteady, the aura emanating from him was undeniably at the peak stage of the Nirvana Realm. In a place filled with Quasi-Saint Realm experts, he might be easily overlooked at first glance.
But in reality, the many servants behind Shang Feng were all peak-stage Nirvana Realm or even more powerful. The strongest was even in the late stage of the Quasi-Saint Realm.
They had all restrained their auras through breath restrain so as not to alarm others.
“Not now. The saint of the Great Mystery Sacred Sect may be here. If we openly follow, I’m afraid that saint will charge into the small world without any regard.”
Shang Feng’s gaze was profound as he softly said.
At a glance, the strongest in this desolate mountain range seemed only to be in the Quasi-Saint Realm. But in truth, there were several Saint Realm experts around.
No one could say the exact number, but they were certain the Great Mystery Sacred Sect’s saint must be nearby. Even the Dachu Empire’s saints might be present.
After all, this place was too close to the Great Mystery Sacred Sect and the Dachu Empire, almost at Dachu’s borders. It would be strange if they didn’t come!
The reason these saints didn’t dare step in was because they understood it was better for Quasi-Saint Realm experts to take action in this small world. But if Saint Realm powerhouses fought over something, that would be hugely problematic. The entire small world might even collapse.
At that time, everyone would return empty-handed..
