King Mu’s expression changed a few times, and then he seemed to have thought of something and immediately said, “I remember it now!”
Ye Chen was overjoyed, “Tell me!”
“Senior Shi should be referring to the Ultimate Ruin!”
King Mu asked tentatively at first. He only explained after noticing Ye Chen’s inquiring gaze, “The so-called Ultimate Ruin is a chaotic place in the Tianfeng sea area. It’s also known as one of the ten most dangerous places!”
Ye Chen frowned, “Why?”
Mu Caiwei continued, her face pale as she said, “That’s because the Ultimate Ruin is a spatial tear filled with extremely violent squalls and spatial rifts. Martial artists are too weak in the presence of these!”
“That’s right!”
King Mu nodded with a solemn expression and said, “Along with the terrifying suction force, a venerable stage expert would be instantly torn into countless pieces. Even a martial venerable wouldn’t dare approach it. After so many years, no one has dared to approach the Ultimate Ruin.”
He could not help but raise his head to look at Ye Chen when he said that, “Why is Senior Shi suddenly interested in the Ultimate Ruin?”
Even Mu Caiwei looked at him in confusion.
Ye Chen pretended to look disappointed as he said, “I’m looking for a place with a ruin in its name. However, I don’t think the Ultimate Ruin you mentioned is the one I’m looking for!”
However, he was certain that the energy refinery cultivator from the Pre-Qin Dynasty was definitely talking about the Ultimate Ruin because it was filled with spatial rifts, which meant that these spatial rifts could lead to other places.
He knew better than anyone how dangerous a spatial rift was. However, he did not care at all. After all, his body was not something that ordinary people could compare to.
…
At a barren land in the southeastern corner of the Tianfeng sea area, under the dim night sky, Ye Chen arrived at the place silently following the map. He stood on a large rock that had been weathered by the wind and looked around the desolate, desert-like surroundings.
In the end, his gaze landed on yellow sand that filled the sky in the distance. There was a huge whirlpool that was roughly 30 meters wide. At that moment, an extremely terrifying suction force was being emitted, devouring everything in the surroundings.
“This must be the Ultimate Ruin!”
Instead of being shocked, Ye Chen was overjoyed. He took a step forward and dashed toward the spatial tear. As he got closer, the tearing force grew stronger.
If an ordinary martial venerable were here, they would not be able to last more than a few breaths. It was no wonder that King Mu and the rest were fearful when they mentioned the Ultimate Ruin.
However, it was nothing to him. In a few breaths, he had already entered the spatial tear. The darkness that greeted his eyes was endless.
Ye Chen cast a fireball to illuminate the space before him. All kinds of rocks and debris floated quietly in the air.
One of the huge rocks that looked like a palace caught his attention. He took a deep breath in and controlled his body to land on the huge rock.
There was no life in the place that his gaze passed. There was only withered grass, and there was a hole in the middle of the boulder.
Ye Chen took a glance with his Divine Consciousness and a hint of joy appeared on his face. He could sense the spiritual power fluctuation through his Divine Consciousness at the entrance of the cave. He walked over without hesitation and dashed into the cave.
What greeted his eyes was an eight trigrams-shaped formation around a meter in diameter. A fist-sized, grayish-white stone was embedded in the center of the formation.
“It really is the Ancient Teleportation Formation!”
Even though he was mentally prepared, Ye Chen could not help but feel excited after seeing the formation before him with his own eyes.
He examined the formation in front of him and frowned. After so many years, many parts of the formation had been damaged. Furthermore, the spiritual stone in the middle had already lost its luster. It was obvious that its spiritual energy had been exhausted.
If he wanted to activate the formation, he would need to put in spiritual stones. Only then would he have enough energy to activate the Teleportation Formation.
Ye Chen’s expression kept changing, “It’s not hard to fix the formation, but where do I find a spiritual stone?
“Fine, I’ll think of something when I get back!”
He shook his head slightly before taking out all the materials from the storage ring. He had refined two sets of formations on the spot. One was to ensure that the Teleportation Formation would not be destroyed by accident, while the other was to prevent the boulder from collapsing.
…
After returning to the King Mu Fort, he immediately found King Mu and handed him a list of materials, “I don’t care what method you use, you must gather all the materials for me within a day!”
The list was filled with materials to repair the Ancient Teleportation Formation!
“Alright!”
King Mu nodded and was about to leave!
“Wait!”
Ye Chen suddenly stopped him and asked, “Do you know where I can find spiritual stones? I need them now!”
“Spiritual stones?”
King Mu was stunned. He asked carefully, “May I ask what spiritual stones are, Senior Shi?”
Ye Chen changed the way of explanation, “It’s an energy stone that provides power for formations. I’m sure you’re familiar with formations, right?”
Only then did King Mu react, “Senior Shi, are you talking about mystic stone? Our formations are activated through mystic stone!”
After saying that, he took out a pigeon egg-sized blue crystal and introduced, “This is it!”
Ye Chen held it in his hand and sensed the energy within it quietly. He looked a little disappointed. The energy inside the so-called mystic stone was too low. It could not activate the Ancient Teleportation Formation at all.
Thinking to this point, he could not help but ask, “This mystic stone is too small. Does your King Mu Fort have a bigger one?”
“The biggest one is only the size of an egg, and there’s only one of them. It’s something that our King Mu Fort has kept for many years!”
King Mu forced a smile and said, “Senior Shi, you might not know this, but mystic stones are too rare, and they usually come from mystic stone mine. However, all mystic stone mines are controlled by top-rate sects, so we can only covet them. Even a grade-9 sect like the Seven Mysteries Mansion doesn’t have them!”
Ye Chen’s eyes flickered a few times when he heard that. He then said, “Which sect closest to Tianfeng City has a mystic stone mine, then?”
“The Giant Demon Sect in Qingzhou!”
King Mu slowly said, “The Giant Demon Sect is the overlord of the Qingzhou. It’s a grade-8 sect that cultivates demonic dao methods. It’s said that there’s even an Emperor Stage supreme elder overseeing it. No one dares to provoke them!”
He took a good look at Ye Chen after saying that. He said while hesitating, “Senior, are you planning to borrow the mystic stone from the Giant Demon Sect? I’m afraid they won’t lend it to me if I can be honest with you.”
Although he did not know what Ye Chen’s use of the mystic stone was, he knew that the mystic stone was too important to these top sects. Borrowing it from them was equivalent to taking their lives.
“I understand. You may leave!”
Ye Chen waved and smirked after he watched him leave, “Who said I wanted to borrow it? I’m robbing. How can you call it borrowing when it comes to cultivators? Don’t we all talk about violence?”
