Chapter 1169 Ancient Ruins

Under the gaze of Lu Fan, Tong Lun and the octopus sea monster, the floating bead flew directly to the front of the gate.

The next moment, the bead was embedded directly into the blank eyeball of a totem on the gate.

Originally, Lu Fan thought that this was the appearance of a totem, but missing an eyeball.

But what I never expected was that the other eyeball was the glowing bead inside the bronze candlestick.

This was a little beyond his expectations.

As the bead in the bronze candlestick embedded into the eye of the totem, the runes on the entire door instantly emitted light.

Then there was a loud rumbling sound.

I saw the door in front of me slowly open, and an ancient and desolate atmosphere swept out from the gap in the door.

Feeling this ancient and desolate atmosphere, Lu Fan couldn't help but frown slightly, and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.

“Is this the breath of the ancient times?”

This breath contains the special spiritual power contained in the ancient spiritual stone.

It is countless times richer and purer than the current spiritual energy.

In addition, this aura seems to be mixed with other special powers.

This special power seems to be a little similar to the original power he had refined before.

However, compared to the original power that he had refined before, the original power contained in this breath seemed to be much weaker.

He slightly practiced his skills, absorbing the energy into his body and feeling it carefully.

When this energy circulated in his body, he clearly felt that his body seemed to have changed a little.

It’s just that the amount of breath absorbed is too little, so I can’t sense specifically what has changed.

But what is certain is that some unknown changes have indeed taken place in the physical body.

As he was feeling and thinking, the door in front of him opened completely.

And that ancient and desolate aura also dissipated and no longer continued to gush out from inside.

Standing at the door and looking inside, I could only see darkness and nothing else.

He tried to mobilize his spiritual sense to explore inside.

It’s a pity that after the spiritual consciousness penetrated into it, it was like a drop in the ocean and there was no movement at all.

But he was not surprised by this.

After all, even the 100 million points detection function cannot detect the situation here.

It would be really strange if my spiritual sense could easily detect it.

At this moment, the bead that was stuck in the eye of the gate totem flew back into the bronze candlestick.

After taking a look at the bronze candlestick in his hand that had rekindled its light, Lu Fan immediately put Tong Lun and the octopus sea monster into the system space.

After all, I don't know what the situation is here.

Therefore, it would be safer to put Tong Lun and the octopus sea monster into the system space to avoid any uncontrollable accidents.

After doing all this, he took a deep breath, holding the bronze candlestick in his hand, and stepped straight into the dark door in front of him.

The moment he stepped through the door, a strong teleportation force instantly enveloped him.

Because he had expected it, Lu Fan did not panic or resist.

He simply used the system barrier to completely wrap himself up, and at the same time he was ready to attack and escape at any time.

Of course, we don’t know whether attacking and escaping will be effective yet, but it’s always good to be prepared.

The dizziness lasted for two or three breaths and then disappeared.

The moment he stabilized his body, Lu Fan immediately looked around with vigilance.

When he saw everything around him, a look of surprise and strangeness suddenly appeared on his face.

"what's the situation?"

I saw that this was an independent world similar to a secret paradise.

I was standing on the top of a mountain that was several thousand meters high, and in the distance there were many mountains that were tens of thousands of meters high.

Some mountains even reach straight into the sky, with the tops completely invisible as they are obscured by thick fog.

The several thousand meter high mountain where he was located was the shortest among the surrounding mountains.

In addition, there are huge ancient trees here that are nearly a thousand meters high, and any one of them is so thick that it takes two or three people to hug it.

He even saw an ancient tree that was as big as a mountain, extremely terrifying and huge.

The tangled branches spread out in all directions like small mountains.

And this place is filled with an incomparably majestic and rich ancient atmosphere, or to be more precise, ancient spiritual energy.

Compared to the breath that gushed out after the door was opened just now, the breath here is several times or even dozens of times richer.

Lu Fan slightly practiced his skills, and the extremely rich aura around him began to gather towards his body frantically.

Feeling the ancient aura that was madly gathering together, an expression of surprise and shock that was hard to conceal emerged on his face.

Just after absorbing a little bit of the ancient aura that was gushing out, he felt some changes taking place in his body.

At this moment, he was absorbing the ancient spiritual energy so madly that he clearly felt that his body was madly absorbing water like dry land.

Under such circumstances, his physical body was obviously strengthened again.

This situation made Lu Fan unable to calm down.

You must know that every improvement in yourself will strengthen your body and make it stronger.

Especially after he rebuilt his immortal body in Linglong Immortal Palace, his physical body was comparable to that of a celestial being.

It stands to reason that ordinary strength is not enough to improve one's physical body.

But the actual situation is that absorbing the ancient spiritual energy here can still allow one's body to continue to improve.

It is no exaggeration to say that if you retreat here for a year or two, your physical condition will definitely undergo earth-shaking changes.

Just as he was secretly sighing, the bronze candlestick in his hand began to tremble slightly.

Noticing something strange about the bronze candlestick, Lu Fan came back to his senses from shock.

When he loosened his hand, the bronze candlestick flew forward on its own.

The next moment, the bronze candlestick burst out with an extremely terrifying suction force and began to frantically absorb the rich ancient spiritual energy around it.

Noticing the bronze candlestick's action, Lu Fan's expression changed slightly.

Then he pushed the system without hesitation and began to collect the ancient spiritual energy here like crazy like the bronze candlestick.

He did not exchange the absorbed ancient spiritual energy into points, but stored all the collected ancient spiritual energy in a separate area within the system space.

Since these ancient spiritual energies are definitely of great use, there is definitely no problem in collecting some.

After all, the ancient spiritual energy here is of great use to himself, not to mention to his disciples and the old Taoist priests and others.

Therefore, collecting more ancient spiritual energy can help his disciples temper their bodies and improve their physical fitness.

In this way, Lu Fan and the bronze candlestick frantically absorbed the ancient spiritual energy gathering from all around.

But after absorbing it madly for half an hour, Lu Fan frowned.

Because he clearly felt that the ancient spiritual energy he absorbed and gathered had become much thinner.

"What's going on? Is the ancient spiritual energy here limited?"

After this thought came to his mind, he once again sped up the speed of absorbing the ancient spiritual energy.

After absorbing it for another incense stick of time, no more ancient spiritual energy gathered around.

Feeling that the ancient spiritual energy had disappeared, Lu Fan's face suddenly showed an expression of disappointment that was hard to conceal.

The ancient spiritual energy here is so majestic and rich.

It would be great if I could keep absorbing it all day long.

It was a pity that he and the bronze candlestick absorbed the energy madly for less than an hour before it was completely absorbed.

Of course, it is also possible that there is something here that restricts the ancient spiritual energy and prevents it from flowing to himself and the bronze candlestick.

Just when Lu Fan stopped activating the system in great disappointment, the bronze candlestick began to vibrate violently.

The next moment, a stream of smoke drifted out from the bronze candlestick.

As Lu Fan gazed in amazement, the smoke wafting out of the bronze candlestick gradually condensed into a human-shaped shadow.

Then the human-shaped shadow became completely solid, and it turned out to be a white-haired old man.

Looking at this scene, Lu Fan's face showed curiosity and doubt.

"Could this be the spirit of the bronze candlestick?"

Just as he was looking at the white-haired old man with great curiosity, the white-haired old man also took a fancy to him.

After looking at each other, Lu Fan didn't waste any words and asked directly about his doubts.

In response to Lu Fan's question, the white-haired old man smiled and nodded: "Yes, I am the spirit of the bronze candlestick."

After getting the old man's affirmative answer, Lu Fan couldn't help but continue to ask out of curiosity:

"What the hell is this place?"

"Also, when I was sinking to the bottom of the sea, I got a lot of items, all of which were related to ancient times. Is this a place from ancient times..."

Lu Fan asked all the questions in his mind in one breath.

After all, as he continued to descend from the bottom of the sea, all kinds of doubts arose in his mind after he discovered those objects.

Especially after knowing that those items were related to ancient times, he became even more interested in them.

Eager to know more about the ancient times.

But unfortunately, no one could help him solve this doubt.

Now that he had finally encountered the spirit of the bronze candlestick, he naturally wanted to find out everything at once.

Answer all the doubts in your heart.

The white-haired old man was not surprised by the series of questions raised by Lu Fan.

"Yes, this is indeed a place left over from ancient times. It can be called an ancient ruin, or an abandoned place."

Hearing the two new words spoken by the white-haired old man, a hint of doubt flashed in Lu Fan's eyes.

"Ancient ruins? Abandoned land?" Lu Fan muttered these two new words.

The white-haired old man nodded: "Yes, it is the ancient ruins and abandoned land."

As he said this, an expression of complex emotion that was difficult to conceal emerged on the white-haired old man's face.

Then, without waiting for Lu Fan to ask, he sighed and said, "You are the first human cultivator to come here in tens of millions of years, so you can be considered the second person with a predestined relationship."

This sentence surprised Lu Fan a little, and he couldn't help asking: "Has anyone been here before?"

The white-haired old man nodded: "Indeed, someone has been here before, but he is not a human, but another race. He calls himself the God of the Sea and the creator of the sea race."

When the white-haired old man told this news, Lu Fan's eyes shrank suddenly...
