Chapter 633: Ancient Heritage in the Ruins and the Buds of New Threats

After Chu Tian and his companions left the mysterious cave by the sea, they continued to patrol the martial arts world. They walked along the winding path, through dense forests and vast grasslands, not missing any place that might be dangerous or hide secrets.

On this day, they came to a forgotten ancient ruins. The architectural style of the ruins was peculiar, and the huge stone pillars were tilted, as if telling the vicissitudes of time. The stone walls were engraved with complex patterns and runes, but most of them were already blurred.

"This place looks quite old. I wonder where it was before." Qin Feng looked around curiously.

"No matter where it is, it must be hiding a lot of secrets." Zhang Meng rubbed his hands excitedly. He was always full of desire to explore such mysterious places.

As soon as they entered the ruins, they felt an ancient and mysterious soul power fluctuation. This fluctuation was not strong, but very deep, as if it concealed endless power.

"Everyone, be careful, the soul power fluctuations here are a bit weird." Chu Tian reminded, his thunder soul power unconsciously flashing around his body, ready to deal with possible dangers at any time.

In the center of the ruins, there is a huge stone platform. Surrounding the stone platform are a circle of small statues. These statues have different shapes, some look like ferocious soul beasts, and some look like majestic soul masters.

"Look at these statues. They seem to be guarding something." Ye Li said.

Just as they approached the stone platform, the statues suddenly flashed a faint light, and then they began to move.

"Oh my, how come these statues come to life?" a student exclaimed in surprise.

“Who cares? If an enemy comes, we’ll fight him; if a flood comes, we’ll block it with earth!” Zhang Meng shouted, and the giant rock bear martial spirit instantly possessed him, rushing towards a statue that looked like a giant wolf.

Zhang Meng's bear paw slammed hard at the giant wolf statue, but the statue nimbly avoided the attack, then turned around and pounced on Zhang Meng, its sharp claws flashing coldly in the sunlight.

Chu Tian was not to be outdone. He flew into the air, gathered the power of thunder in his hands, and attacked a group of statues that were rushing towards the students. After the power of thunder hit the statues, they only paused slightly, but soon continued to move towards the target.

"These statues are so hard that ordinary attacks seem to have no effect." Chu Tian said with a frown.

Qin Feng observed the actions of these statues and found that the eyes of the statues seemed to be their key parts. Every time the statues were attacked, their eyes would flicker.

"Everyone, concentrate on attacking the eyes of the statue!" Qin Feng shouted.

After hearing Qin Feng's words, everyone adjusted their attack direction and attacked the statue's eyes. Sure enough, when the statue's eyes were attacked, its movements became slow and the light on its body gradually dimmed.

After a fierce battle, the statues finally stopped attacking, returned to their original appearance, and stood there motionless.

"Huh, finally dealt with these guys." Zhang Meng wiped the sweat from his forehead.

They continued to study the stone platform and found some ancient characters engraved on it. Ye Li carefully identified these characters. After a long while, she said with surprise: "These characters record an ancient martial soul inheritance. It is said that this inheritance can allow the martial soul to gain a special ability."

"Special ability? What ability?" Qin Feng asked curiously.

"I don't know the details yet, but it seems that this kind of inheritance can only be obtained through a special ceremony." Ye Li replied.

Just as they were discussing, a ray of light suddenly came out from the stone platform, enveloping Qin Feng.

"Qin Feng, what's wrong with you?" Chu Tian asked anxiously.

"I don't know either. It seems like this stone platform has chosen me and wants me to accept this inheritance." Although Qin Feng was a little surprised, his eyes were full of anticipation.

Under the cover of light, Qin Feng felt his consciousness enter a mysterious space. This space was filled with phantoms of various martial spirits, which were flying and spinning in the air, as if showing their power to Qin Feng.

Suddenly, a huge dragon-shaped martial spirit appeared in front of Qin Feng. The dragon's body was emitting golden light, and its eyes were majestic and mysterious.

"You are the chosen one. Accept my inheritance and you will gain great power, but you will also shoulder great responsibilities." The voice of the dragon-shaped martial spirit sounded in Qin Feng's mind.

"I'm willing to accept it." Qin Feng replied firmly.

The dragon-shaped martial spirit slowly approached Qin Feng and then merged into his body. Qin Feng felt a powerful force surging in his body, and his Dragon Shadow Sword martial spirit also changed. Some mysterious runes appeared on the Dragon Shadow Sword, and the light of the sword became more dazzling. He could feel that his control over the martial spirit became more handy, and it seemed that he had gained a special ability that had not yet been discovered.

When Qin Feng came out of the inheritance space, everyone surrounded him.

"Qin Feng, how do you feel?" Ye Li asked with concern.

"I feel full of strength, and my martial soul seems to have changed a little." Qin Feng said excitedly.

Just when everyone was happy about Qin Feng's harvest, a noisy sound suddenly came from outside the ruins.

"It seems like something is coming." Chu Tian said vigilantly.

They walked out of the ruins and saw a group of mysterious people in black cloaks walking towards the ruins. These people exuded an uncomfortable soul power fluctuation, although it was not strong, but it exuded an evil aura.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?" Chu Tian asked.

A leader-like person among the mysterious people stood up and said, "We are from the Dark Shadow Organization. We heard that there is an ancient heritage here, so of course we are here to seize it."

"Dark Shadow? I've never heard of this organization." Zhang Meng scratched his head.

"Hmph, there are so many organizations you haven't heard of. If you know what's good for you, hand over the person who just inherited the legacy. Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude." The mysterious leader threatened.

"You want us to hand over the person? No way!" Chu Tian said angrily.

"Then don't blame us for taking action." The mysterious leader waved his hand, and the mysterious people behind him released their martial spirits one after another. Most of these martial spirits were strangely shaped and full of dark aura, some looked like black ghosts, and some looked like skulls covered with spikes.

A new battle was about to break out. Chu Tian and others immediately got ready to meet the challenge of these mysterious people.

Qin Feng, holding the Dragon Shadow Sword, rushed towards the mysterious man first. He was now full of confidence and wanted to try out the inherited power he had just obtained. With a wave of the Dragon Shadow Sword, a soul blade with golden runes flew towards the mysterious man.

The mysterious people saw the soul blade and dodged it, but a few of them were still slow and were hit by the soul blade, screaming in pain.

"This guy's power has become stronger." The mysterious leader frowned, then rushed towards Qin Feng himself.

His martial soul was a huge black ghost. The ghost opened its mouth and spewed a stream of black soul power towards Qin Feng.

Qin Feng was not in a hurry. He used the special ability of the Dragon Shadow Sword to bounce the black soul power back. The mysterious leader was startled and quickly dodged sideways.

On the other side, Zhang Meng and the Giant Rock Bear Martial Soul were fighting a mysterious man whose martial soul was a black skeleton. Every time the Giant Rock Bear's paw hit the black skeleton, the skeleton would emit a black smoke with corrosive soul power, forcing Zhang Meng to deal with it carefully.

Ye Li commanded the Frost Fox to release cold air, trying to freeze those black ghost-like martial spirits. The cold air spread, and the movements of some mysterious people became slow.

Under the leadership of Chu Tian, ​​the students also fought fiercely with other mysterious people. Although they were inexperienced, they became braver and stronger after the previous experience.

However, these mysterious people in the Dark Shadow Organization seemed to have a special way of cooperation. They constantly changed their formations and supported each other in the battle, which caused a lot of trouble for Chu Tian and others.

"This is not a solution. We have to find a way to disrupt their formation." Chu Tian said.

He flew into the air, observed the mysterious man's formation, and then came up with a plan.

"Qin Feng, Zhang Meng, you make a feint attack from the left to attract their attention. Ye Li, you lead the students to attack from the right. I will find an opportunity to directly attack their leader." Chu Tian said in a low voice.

After hearing Chu Tian's plan, everyone immediately acted according to it.

Qin Feng and Zhang Meng launched a fierce attack on the left. Their attack was so powerful that it successfully attracted the attention of most of the mysterious people.

Ye Li led the students to quietly go around from the right. When they approached the mysterious man, Ye Li suddenly released the Frost Fox's strongest skill - Ice Field.

The ice field instantly enveloped the mysterious man on the right, and their movements became very slow. The students took the opportunity to launch an attack, causing a considerable blow to the mysterious man.

Just when the mysterious man was in disarray, Chu Tian seized the opportunity and rushed towards the mysterious leader. His thunder spirit power gathered to the extreme, forming a huge lightning column, and blasted towards the mysterious leader.

The mysterious leader was dealing with Qin Feng's attack, but he didn't expect Chu Tian to suddenly attack from behind. He wanted to dodge, but it was too late. After being hit by the lightning column, his body flew backwards.

"Leader!" When the mysterious men saw that their leader was injured, they all wanted to rescue him.

However, Chu Tian and others would not give them this opportunity. They took advantage of the victory and continued to attack.

Under the joint attack of everyone, the mysterious man from the Dark Shadow Organization began to retreat step by step.

"Retreat!" The mysterious leader shouted when he saw the situation was not good.

After hearing the order, the mysterious people fled into the distance.

"Hmph, you want to run? Not that easy!" Zhang Meng wanted to chase him but was stopped by Chu Tian.

"Forget it. We don't know their details yet, so don't chase them rashly." Chu Tian said.

They looked in the direction where the mysterious man disappeared, their hearts filled with worry.

"This Dark Shadow organization doesn't look simple. We have to go back and inform the Soul Master Academy to strengthen precautions." Ye Li said.

"That's right, and we must also quickly research what special abilities Qin Feng's inheritance has. Maybe this will be of great help to us in dealing with new threats." Chu Tian said.

So, with new worries and hopes, they hurried back to the Soul Master Academy, ready to meet the new challenges that might come.
