Chapter 625  Enter The Forest II

“Little Chen, I have a bad feeling about this forest.” Dongfang Hanyue said this as she kept hugging Chen Li’s arm, and she then pointed to their left. “Over there! That bad feeling is coming from that direction, especially since I can’t feel anything from that place.”

“That area makes me feel uncomfortable too, Little Chen.” Dongfang Hanxue said this while pointing to their right.

“Hahaha.” Xue Xueyan suddenly laughed when she heard them. “Sister Xue and Sister Yue, those two areas are indeed terrible, and many people disappeared in them, especially the area to our left.”

The Dongfang twins immediately turned to her. “What do you mean by that? How can people disappear there?”

“I’ve never entered that area myself.” Xue Xueyan responded to their questions by shaking her head. “According to my grandparents, there is a large ancient ruin nearby, surrounded by numerous smaller ruins, tempting many groups of people to explore them in the past. Unfortunately, only a few of them were able to return from that place, and most of them disappeared up to this day.”

“Xueyan is right about that.” Chen Li immediately summoned the blood-eater sword, but it was in a calm state, especially since it did not sense the enemies around them. “Sikong Ye found this sword in the biggest ruin, and he had also given me a map of his explorations in the past, which made me quite curious about it. However, I don’t have the intention to explore them for now, especially since our strength isn’t enough to do it.”

“Don’t we have Sister Shijian and others?” Mayumi Keiko suddenly asked Chen Li. “After all, they’re overpowered, and they can protect us, so I think it’s fine if we try to explore them.”

“Keiko, we are indeed overpowered in strength, but we are not omnipotent, and there are several things that can limit our abilities, such as the formations around the ruins.” Mayumi Keiko and the others immediately turned to Xiao Kong’er, who was floating above them. “That area is filled with ancient formations, and they are not formations commonly found in this lower realm, but they are more similar to formations in the upper realms, or even the Five Divine Heavens. Even Big Sis Shijian won’t be able to crack them quickly, so we’ll have a hard time saving you guys if something untoward happens.”

“Even your void abilities can’t penetrate them, Big Sis?” Xiao Kong’er answered Shen Qing by shaking her head, and she then asked Xiao Shijian. “What about you, Big Sis? Can you crack those formations so we can explore the ruins safely?”

“I can crack them, but it will take a lot of time for me to be able to do it.” Xiao Shijian then waved his tiny right hand, making the mist around them disappear for a while, and threw a huge boulder towards their left.

*Bam*

The boulder shattered into dust instantly, shocking everyone, and Xiao Shijian immediately spoke to them again. “See that? Despite my extensive experience, I’ve never encountered such a formation before, and it’s the result of a fusion of multiple formations. One of them is a suppressing formation, which will suppress our cultivation by several levels, and the two of us will also experience that. If we look from outside the formation, the area seems like an ordinary area, and there is nothing suspicious. However, I sense the presence of a teleportation formation within, which will instantly transport us to random locations as we traverse through it. That’s why he doesn’t want to take you there now because you’ll all face the worst nightmare in there, and we won’t be able to save you all if we get separated. from each other.”

Hearing that, Chen Ziyi and the others nodded repeatedly at the two spirit women, and they immediately gave up their desire to explore those ruins, especially since they were still too weak and could not possibly protect themselves, which would put them in danger.

“Then what about our right-side area?” Luo Yi asked them.

Xiao Shijian smiled faintly before once again waving his tiny hand, causing the women to fall on their buttocks once they saw so many terrifying beasts in the area. Furthermore, they noticed that there were so many human skeletons hanging down from the trees, which made the scene in that area really gruesome.

“What the hell with that area!? How can there be so many human skeletons over there?” Di Chen, who was usually calm, shouted loudly as her body trembled in horror.

“Hahaha.” Xiao Hei, who had just appeared above them, caught their attention immediately. “In fact, the two areas interconnect, with the area on your right serving as the grave area of the ruins owners from the past. They purposely placed those beasts there to guard their tombs, and the human skeletons hanging from the trees belonged to people from this realm who tried to invade their final resting place.”

After hearing that, Shou Xiang proceeded to question them. “Seniors, if your words were true, how could those ancient people be in this realm? After all, you said that those formations are so powerful, and you will also feel the effects if you go inside. That’s why I believe that they should be powerful and live in the upper realms, or the Five Divine Heavens.”

“You’re not wrong if you think like that, considering that almost all strong cultivators harbor dreams of going to the upper realms, especially since they can only fulfill their ambitions to become stronger in those places.” They nodded in agreement with that, particularly since they themselves had dreams of going to higher realms, and Xiao Shijian then continued. “Not all ancient people liked to live in the upper realms, mainly because there were too many problems there, and many of them wanted to find peace in their lives. That’s why they chose to spread out in various realms, including the lower realms, so you shouldn’t be surprised if you can find ancient ruins in almost every realm. Moreover, the Five Divine Heavens did not exist in the past, and there are many other realms that are much better than that place.”

“Eh?” They were all shocked by Xiao Shijian’s last sentence, and they previously thought that the Five Divine Heavens were the oldest place in the universe, especially since all of their strongest cultivators lived there. Expplôre 𝒖ptod𝒂te stories at no/𝒗el//bin(.)c𝒐m

“If that’s true, since when did that place exist, Sister Shijian? How can that place be the best now?” Cai Yan was the one who asked her.

“Everything is because of him.” “Everything is because of him,” Xiao Shijian said, pointing at Chen Li, causing everyone to turn to him with curious looks. However, he shrugged helplessly at them, given that the Five Divine Heavens, according to Emperor Long’s memories, had existed for a long time. In fact, one of his reincarnations had discovered that place long ago, still sealed by the Golden Restraint Formation Array at the time. After he destroyed that formation, the Qi in that place became extremely abundant, especially since its location was so close to the source Qi in this universe. Since then, people from the highest realm have moved there in droves, but their arrival made that place completely chaotic because they had the ambition to be the best of the best, and that situation lasted for such a long time that I can’t even remember it. However, the situation there became calm and under control after Emperor Long was born, and he gave it the name the Five Divine Heavens after he became supreme ruler there.”

However, they felt strange about it, prompting Huo Rui to inquire. “Then who installed the Golden Restraint Formation Array at that place, seniors?”

“The ancients installed that formation there.” They wore confused looks, making Xiao Shijian feel helpless, especially since the stories were too far in the past and she didn’t want to waste time remembering them anymore. “All right, you guys don’t need to think about them, especially since everything is in the past, and you just need to focus on your future. Moreover, the situation there has become chaotic once again under the leadership of Tian Shiwang, who calls himself the King of Heaven. In addition, many people are waiting for us to save them, so you guys must train and cultivate harder.”

“So, where are we going now?” Zhao Ying asked them. “Since we can’t enter those two areas, we have to find a suitable place for our training.”

“Over there.” Xiao Kong’er pointed in another direction. “Even though the beasts in that area are strong, and some of them are at the Earth Realm, that area is much better than those two areas. Besides, there is a small lake in that area, so you guys can train and rest there, and we will protect all of you while you train in this forest.”

They nodded in agreement, but Chen Li spoke to Xiao Kong’er. “I need you to go get the others now; otherwise, their bodies will stiffen if they just train at our residence, so I want them to join us.”

“All right, I will pick them up now.”

After Xiao Kong’er disappeared, Chen Li led them to the area she had pointed out before, and the women looked excited when they arrived there, especially after they saw the small lake.
