Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!-Chapter 1601 - 368: Can This Cripple Really Do It? (Part 3)
Moreover, the intervals each time are different, so it requires some luck.
However, the Zoroastrian Sect people will observe near the Ruins beforehand, and every time the Ruins open, the clouds within will pour out. At that time, the whole area will be filled with rolling clouds, displaying very distinct features, hence the followers of the Zoroastrian Sect can then attempt to enter the Ruins.
Inside the Ruins, it is said that it is not void but rather a very expansive place.
According to Liu Futong, the Ruins are the origin of the Kunlun Dragon Vein, hence inside exists a Yin-Yang vortex that devours all surrounding Gang Qi.
Even the Gang Qi within living organisms cannot escape its devourment, which is the reason why no Gang Qi can escape the Ruins.
This is also one of the reasons why the Ruins suppress the Gang Qi within martial artists.
Understanding this, Chen Jiusi realized that the Ruins are the source of the gray fog.
The gray fog should be familiar to everyone; it exists in all famed mountains under the heavens, like Dahei Mountain in Mianshui County back in the day, and later when Chen Jie entered the valley of the White Tiger in the main nest of the Zoroastrian Sect in Huangzhou Prefecture. These all took place in the land of gray fog.
And the gray fog is the emanation of the power of the Dragon Vein, while the Ruins are the origin of the Kunlun Mountain Range.
That is, the Dragon Head of the Dragon Vein is located here, thus it possesses the terrifying power to suppress Gang Qi.
Through Liu Caidie’s introduction, Chen Jie gained a deeper understanding of the so-called Ruins.
Thus concluded the night.
The next morning, Liu Caidie and Chen Jiusi were both called up by Han Ling’er and then had them change into a set of guard’s clothing.
This attire was meant for the trusted aide of the Ming King. Their mission today was to disguise themselves as the Ming King’s trusted aides, accompany him to the Ruins, and seize the chance to enter the Ruins.
Upon learning of the plan, Chen Jie and Han Ling’er put on the guard uniforms and then assembled at the Ming Prince Mansion.
Today, the Little Ming King Han Lin’er donned a very formal Sect Hierarch’s outfit, with more than a hundred guards following behind, which was the standard configuration of the Ming King, a hundred trusted aides, all of whom were capable hands with considerable strength.
Especially a few old fellows among them, who had once faced life and death with the former Ming King Han Shantong, and each one’s strength was extraordinary.
And all were loyally devoted to the Ming King’s lineage.
And the only purpose for which the Little Ming King assembled many confidants here today was to disguise and protect Han Ling’er’s team to enter the Ruins.
"Ming King, everyone has arrived,"
An elderly voice said among the guards, and the Little Ming King nodded, glancing towards the hidden position of Han Ling’er and the others, exchanged a look with his sister, then waved his hand, saying, "Set off."
With that, the entourage proceeded directly toward the Ruins.
Meanwhile, before the Ruins, Du Zundao, Mr. Guan, and the remaining Twelve Elders were all present, along with the Fiery Fire Banner and Flood Banner keeping guard outside, ensuring not even a fly could penetrate.
Therefore, it was absolutely impossible to enter openly.
Arriving here, Chen Jie observed the tight security and asked, "It’s tightly guarded here, how do we plan to sneak into the Ruins? It seems quite difficult."
With her head covered by a guard’s helmet amidst the crowd, Liu Caidie seriously said, "It’s not that hard, as long as we enter the Forbidden Land, there’s bound to be a chance."
Chen Jie replied, "There’s such strict surveillance and yet there’s still a chance?"
Liu Caidie: "The Ruins, the Ruins, the convergence of Yin and Yang, is full of uncertainties, you’ll soon understand."
Saying this, Chen Jie said no more words, and followed Liu Caidie forward.
Meanwhile, inside the Forbidden Land, before a huge cavern, there was a large area where no one stood, and another area where a group was sitting together talking.
Upon closer inspection, they found it was Du Zundao with several of the Twelve Elders.
Mr. Guan was also there.
Then Elders Yin Hu from the Twelve Elders said to Du Zundao with flattery, "Dharma King, are you really going to personally descend into the Ruins this time?"
Du Zundao glanced at Yin Hu, with a smile on his face.
You should know among the Twelve Elders, they are divided into three levels: upper, middle, and lower. The lower ones are usually at the Dragon Realm, as was once the fallen Elder Quan.
Then the Middle Four Venerables, typically all at the Dragon Peak level or have stepped into the Molten Furnace Lower Realm.
While the Upper Four Venerables are of the Middle Melting Furnace Realm level, especially Elder Chen Long, who’s capabilities are no lesser than Han Miaozhen’s.
Among the Upper Four Venerables, apart from Chen Long, there are Chou Niu and Mei Tu, there used to be a fourth, Elder Yin Hu, Tigercrest Lord, but as everyone knows, he ventured once to Wushan and was done in by someone named Chen Jiusi.
So now, among the Upper Four Venerables, only Chen Long, Chou Niu, and Mei Tu remain.
At this time, the three of them gathered around Du Zundao, and Du Zundao said to them, "Hmm, with the court’s army nearing, we have to consider a retreat route. The Qiankun Great Method concerns our sect’s escape path and is irreplaceable, therefore, this time I am determined, no matter what, I must find this Qiankun Great Method, so that our Holy Sect doesn’t fall into danger."
Hearing this, Elder Chen Long said, "Dharma King, you are noble, for the Holy Sect you’ve given your all, we admire you."
Elder Mei Tu then spoke, "Back then, the Dharma King infiltrated the court for the Holy Sect and faced axes and blades without flinching—now that’s a true hero."
Chou Niu chuckled, "Indeed, why let that little brat be the Sect Hierarch? Just let the Dharma King take over instead."
