Chapter 1031: Chapter 1029: Heading to the Ruins!

After Lin Bai walked away, he arrived at the entrance to the Seven Stars ruins, and after receiving a map to the ruins, he promptly turned and left the Star Spreading Hall.

"Let’s go straightaway," he said.

Lin Bai had no desire to go back and prepare; he directly left the Second Peak and headed for the ruins!

Next to Star Spreading Hall, there was a huge square where a large circular Magic Circle was set up, its ground engraved with some strange runes.

This place was the teleportation square of the Second Peak.

All Warriors who wanted to go to the ruins could teleport from here.

This means of teleportation had been originally installed by the elders of the Red Immortal Sect and Luo Qi; nowadays, there were very few Array Masters capable of setting up Teleportation Arrays in the Five Peaks.

Lin Bai entered the teleportation square, and went to the center of the Magic Circle. A pleasant voice echoed in Lin Bai’s ear, "Hello, Lin Bai, this is Si Bao. Congratulations on being promoted to a disciple of the Five Peaks. Which ruins do you plan to train in next?"

"Ah, it’s you again, Si Bao," Lin Bai replied with a faint smile. "I’m going to the Seven Stars ruins, the one discovered just ten days ago—a Cave Mansion of a Direct Disciple."

"Okay."

After Si Bao responded, suddenly Lin Bai felt a mysterious power gathering around him, violently pulling at his body.

Swoosh—

Suddenly, Lin Bai felt as if his physical body was moving at high speed.

In the blink of an eye, Lin Bai found himself in a desolate heaven and earth.

"Lin Bai, as the teleportation array at the Seven Stars ruins is not yet properly set up, I can only teleport you to a canyon three thousand miles away from the teleportation location," Si Bao explained.

"Good luck," Si Bao added before his voice disappeared again.

"Good luck, thank you," Lin Bai responded.

Lin Bai looked up and saw that it was indeed a canyon, but this canyon had no plants or signs of life; the area was barren, permeated with the stench of death.

"Three thousand miles isn’t that far." After contemplating briefly in the canyon, Lin Bai’s eyes brightened, and he softly shouted, "Flying Sword!"

Whoosh—

With a whoosh, Lin Bai, stepping on his Flying Sword, shot towards the location three thousand miles away.

Lin Bai controlled the speed of his Flying Sword well, not too fast. After half an hour, he slowly approached the entrance to the Cave Mansion of the Direct Disciple.

From a distance on his Flying Sword, Lin Bai could see quite a few Warriors standing outside the Cave Mansion of the Direct Disciple.

The cultivation levels of these Warriors were extremely profound; each of them was at the sixth or seventh level of the Earth Elixir Realm.

From afar, Lin Bai withdrew his Flying Sword and landed on the ground, using his movement technique to approach the Seven Stars ruins.

"This is actually a mountain peak!"

"That’s right, in accordance with the tiers for disciples established by the Red Immortal Sect, only Direct Disciples would have the privilege to create mountain peaks for solitary dwelling within the Red Immortal Sect."

"As Direct Disciples, not only could they establish mountain peaks for solitary dwelling, but they also possessed significant authority within the Red Immortal Sect, allowing them to bring their families or friends and relatives to reside with them on their mountain peaks."

"Additionally, these mountain peaks are equipped with various hidden Magic Circle Prohibitions to ensure the authority of the Direct Disciples."

After approaching the mountain peak, a smile appeared on Lin Bai’s face.

At that moment, when Lin Bai looked up at the mountain peak, Warriors swarmed everywhere, and incessant battles rang out.

There were fights between Warriors, and fights between Warriors and Demon Beasts!

Lin Bai casually glanced around before swiftly flashing his body and sprinting to the top of the mountain peak.

On the mountain peak, there were numerous palaces. Some palaces were specifically prepared for servants and attendants, while others were designated for the family members of the Disciple.

However, the biggest issue now was, where was the Disciple’s own Cave Mansion?

The place with the most treasures on this mountain peak was undoubtedly the Disciple’s own Cave Mansion!

Therefore, all the warriors currently on the mountain peak were searching for the Disciple’s Cave Mansion.

Whoever found it first would certainly gain a lot of opportunities!

Lin Bai climbed up the mountain peak and saw a palace that had collapsed onto the ground.

From a distance, although the palace had collapsed and was severely eroded by time, Lin Bai could still see the exquisite craftsmanship that crafted it — something that could no longer be replicated in the East Continent nowadays.

Lin Bai carefully entered the palace and found that there was no one inside.

"No one here? That makes sense, this was the first palace I saw upon arrival, so surely other disciples must have seen it too."

"Whatever treasures were in this palace have probably been taken away long ago."

"Well, since I’ve come all this way, I might as well search around."

Lin Bai calmly smiled and entered the palace, starting to slowly search inside.

Lin Bai saw terrifying claw marks on the stone walls inside the palace.

"These marks don’t seem man-made, but rather like the claw marks of some Demon Beast... could there have been Demon Clan taking action here?" Lin Bai curiously observed the marks, feeling somewhat familiar, as if he had seen them somewhere before.

But Lin Bai’s first instinct was that these marks must have been made by a member of the Demon Clan who took action here.

"Hm? A warrior of the Third Level of Earth Elixir Realm, what are you doing here?" Lin Bai was examining the claw marks when suddenly a strange voice came from behind him in the palace.

Lin Bai turned to look and saw a group of six warriors, four men and two women, entering through the grand entrance of the palace.

The leader was a middle-aged man, apparently in his thirties, whose face had lost much of its youthful naivety and had gained a few traces of solemnity.

The person who had just spoken was this middle-aged man.

At this moment, a beautiful young girl by the side of the middle-aged man also called out to Lin Bai, "Are you also here for an adventure? Impressive, daring to come here at merely the Third Level of Earth Elixir Realm."

From his observation, Lin Bai noticed that aside from the middle-aged man who was at the Seventh Level of Earth Elixir Realm, the other warriors were at the Sixth Level, and the young girl who spoke to him was a warrior at the Fifth Level of Earth Elixir Realm.

Seeing that these people didn’t seem to have any bad intentions, Lin Bai smiled and said, "I’m just here to take a look."

The girl smiled and said, "My name is Kang Shiyun, and this is my elder brother, Kang Yiyang."

Lin Bai said, "I’ve seen Senior Sister Kang and Senior Brother Kang."

Kang Yiyang approached with a solemn expression and asked, "Young brother, are you here alone, or did you come with other friends?"

"Uh, I actually did come with friends, but we got separated just now." Upon hearing this, Lin Bai immediately felt that being here as a warrior at the Third Level of Earth Elixir Realm alone indeed seemed inappropriate and quite dangerous.

What if Kang Yiyang harbored ill intentions?

Therefore, Lin Bai simply told them that he was with friends, implying that if they had any malicious intentions, they should be wary.

Kang Yiyang said, "Got separated? This Disciple’s Cave Mansion is indeed extremely intricate; getting separated is extremely common here. Well, how about this, if you want to follow us, and should you encounter your friends later, you can leave with them."

"Otherwise, being alone here, even if you encounter a Demon Clan member, your life would be in great danger!"

Kang Yiyang warned.

"If that’s the case, then I’m indebted to Senior Brother Kang," Lin Bai casually responded with a smile.
