Book 3: Chapter 8.1: The Lost City
The first to notice the sudden appearance of the ancient city was the villagers who lived nearby, and the news spreaded as they rushed to the market. The news spread quickly, so ordinary martial arts master, who wanted to seek immortality, were the first ones who came to the ancient city.
Dispute ensued. After people met at the gate of the ancient city, they quickly fought out because of the struggle for interests. After a chaotic battle on one side, all parties threw down more or fewer bodies and had to leave the gate of the ancient city. There was a stalemate.
Then came the local national army who received the news, and some cultivators of the nearby sect. After the emergence of these high-end military forces, the martial arts people were replaced. It became the confrontation between the national guardians and the sects.
But in order to avoid the movement of the more powerful sect, even the direct intervention of the Righteous Alliance or the Evil Alliance, after some urgent consultations, both sides reached an agreement. Each party would send several cultivators to explore the ancient city together, and the achievements were divided in proportion.
Several foundation-building national guardians and several foundation-building disciples from various sects, under the leadership of two Golden Core cultivators, were ready to explore this ancient city that suddenly appeared in this area and is obviously an extraordinary cultivation site.
But as if knowing that someone was about to enter, when the team was just formed, the gate of the ancient city opened on its own, exposing the dark space inside the gate.
“What happened?”
A Golden Core cultivator couldn’t help but asked himself a question. He used a technique to enhance his eyesight to see what was in the door, but the darkness inside the ancient city seemed to be some kind of substance that could block his gaze.
No one was able to answer his question. The Golden Core cultivator withdrew his gaze, paused, and then looked at the other Golden Core and tentatively suggested:
“Then we…”
Beeng!
At this moment, a heavy bell sounded suddenly in the ancient city.
The sound waves visible to the naked eye penetrated the darkness from the center of the ancient city, transmitted out, and spread to all directions.
After hearing the sound, the voice of the Golden Core cultivator who was talking came to an abrupt halt. Thousands of troops, martial art masters, and cultivators nearby all froze in place.
Beeng!
A moment later, the second bell sound came, and the people who had been stiff in place moved one after another, but their eyes had lost their spirit, and their movements were slow but uniform, just like a puppet controlled by invisible silk threads I no longer have my own thinking.
“Kill……”
The Golden Core cultivator who was talking just now suddenly uttered a word.
“Kill the Green Emperor and recreate the Sacred Dynasty.”
“Kill the Green Emperor and recreate the Sacred Dynasty.”
As if it were a chain reaction, as the words of this Golden Core cultivator fell, the slogan was slowly recited in other people’s mouths.
“Kill the Green Emperor and recreate the Sacred Dynasty.”
Soon, these people from different forces and different realms of strength all slowly moved up. They stood in a row in a shaky way, and walked into the ancient city from the ancient city gate, slowly Slowly disappeared into the darkness behind the gate.
After the figure of the last person submerged in the darkness, the gate of the ancient city slowly closed again. Then, somehow, there was a very thick fog, and the whole ancient city was submerged in this thick fog. It slowly disappeared into the mist.
Half a day later, the dense fog dissipated, but there was no trace of the ancient city, as if its appearance was just a dream.
