#510 - Chapter 510 Escape
Within the ancient ruins, dangers lurked at every turn.
However, as the sun-piercing rainbow in the sky grew increasingly brilliant, everyone was immersed in dreams of getting rich, completely oblivious to the perils around them.
At this moment, Lin Yaoyao and Xiaobai had already arrived at the location where the ruins appeared, along with the first group of cultivators.
In the vast desert, a round, white, glowing sun hung in the northern sky.
The sand dunes illuminated by the sun shimmered with colorful light.
Everyone watched this strange phenomenon and couldn't help but cheer.
Just then, the sun set at an extremely fast speed, and the sky turned completely dark.
As everyone was at a loss, someone suddenly pointed and exclaimed, "Something moved over there!"
Upon hearing this, everyone curiously looked in the direction the person was pointing.
"This, this is...?"
Many cultivators hesitated upon seeing this castle.
These ancient ruins definitely contained many treasures.
However, given the strange appearance of these ancient ruins, who knew what dangers might lurk within?
For a moment, everyone looked at each other, none daring to go in first.
As everyone was pushing and shoving, an old man stepped forward and said, "Since you are all so afraid of death, then I will go."
Xiaobai took a look and realized it was Luo Yangtian. He was about to say something, but Lin Yaoyao grabbed his sleeve, shook her head, and whispered.
"Xiaobai, don't worry about it."
"He didn't care much about us in the sect. Besides, he has such a high cultivation level, how could anything happen to him?"
Xiaobai nodded upon hearing this, saying, "That's right, Sect Leader Luo has a high cultivation level and great abilities. He probably wouldn't listen to us anyway."
Lin Yaoyao affectionately stroked Xiaobai's hair, smiled, and stayed aside like everyone else, watching the show.
Meanwhile, Luo Yangtian saw that no one responded after he spoke, not even the few disciples from his own sect. He immediately flicked his sleeves, snorted coldly, and cautiously walked towards the castle, channeling his spiritual power throughout his body.
Everyone watched Luo Yangtian's actions, staring intently without blinking.
Lin Yaoyao and Xiaobai were watching attentively when their view was blocked by a shadow.
"Who are you? Move aside! Otherwise, I won't be polite!"
Lin Yaoyao shouted angrily. What a joke, she was the Empress, how could this person be so ignorant?
"Young lady, I want to discuss something with you."
The man saw Lin Yaoyao's beautiful face and slender figure, and his eyes kept scanning her up and down.
"What is it?"
Lin Yaoyao looked at the man's lewd eyes, suppressing the anger in her heart.
"What lies behind this castle is unknown to both of us. I want to ask if the young lady is willing to join me?"
"At critical moments, I can protect you, allowing you to take whatever you want."
The man smiled, revealing a confident expression.
"Heh, I don't need a waste to protect me. Get lost!"
Lin Yaoyao chuckled.
"Hey, young lady, don't be so sure!" The man immediately became angry out of embarrassment.
"I told you to get lost, so just get lost. Why are you talking so much?"
Even Xiaobai became impatient.
The man saw Xiaobai's ferocity and didn't dare to stay any longer, slinking away.
At this time, Luo Yangtian had already walked step by step to the outside of the castle gate.
Despite his confident words earlier, he was actually very uneasy in his heart.
After all, no one had entered these ancient ruins for many years. Who knew what might still be inside?
Moreover, the way these ancient ruins appeared was too strange.
But since he had already said it, he couldn't take it back.
Thinking of this, Luo Yangtian took out his protective staff and swallowed a heart-protecting pill before feeling slightly relieved and walking forward.
This heart-protecting pill could save his life at a critical moment.
When he truly stood beneath the castle, Luo Yangtian realized that the castle was completely different from what he had seen from afar.
From a distance, he could only vaguely see the outline of the castle, and it gave people a feeling of wanting to get closer.
But upon reaching the castle, he found that it exuded an indescribable strange feeling.
From afar, it was only thirty feet tall, but up close, he found that he couldn't see the top of the castle.
The castle stretched upwards, as if it were about to pierce into the depths of the clouds.
Every brick and tile of the castle was ancient cyan in color, and upon closer inspection, each brick was engraved with lifelike ghost faces.
Some were sitting, some were lying, some were laughing, some were cursing, some were kind, and some were terrifyingly eerie. The large ones were as tall as a person, and the small ones were as small as a child's fingernail.
Looking at the castle from the castle gate was like looking at a grinning giant mouth, looking down at him from above.
Luo Yangtian looked behind him, braced himself, and pulled the ring on the castle door.
"Ding-dong, ding-dong~ Ding-ding-dang-dang ding~"
A melodious sound like wind chimes came, and everyone was stunned.
"What is Luo Yangtian trying to do?"
"Yeah, such ancient ruins, who does he want to summon?"
Everyone was discussing and couldn't understand Luo Yangtian's sudden actions.
Luo Yangtian himself stood at the gate of the castle, also stunned.
He clearly wanted to push open the castle door, but it felt as if a hand was guiding him, slowly pulling the ring.
"Giggle, giggle~"
Just as everyone was racking their brains, a child's laughter came, making everyone's goosebumps rise.
Luo Yangtian was the first to react. He immediately threw the staff backwards and retreated quickly.
But it was too late.
No one saw when the castle door opened, but a withered hand stretched out and grabbed Luo Yangtian's foot, dragging him backwards.
Luo Yangtian was stunned by this sudden change and struggled to crawl backwards.
But the withered hand had immense strength, pulling Luo Yangtian so he couldn't break free.
Before everyone could rush over, Luo Yangtian was pulled into the door, and there was no more sound.
"Master!"
Luo Yangtian's disciples panicked when they saw their master being pulled in and rushed towards the castle.
Lin Yaoyao was about to rush over, but someone stopped her.
"Young lady, there's no need to rush over. Luo Yangtian just swallowed a heart-protecting pill, he won't die."
Lin Yaoyao looked up and saw a black-clothed man with a masked face, and couldn't help but be annoyed.
"Who are you? Why are you interfering with me?"
"Young lady, you don't need to know who I am. I just want to remind the young lady: These ancient ruins contain danger and killing intent."
"Some are left by ancient powerhouses, and some are left by outsiders."
"The young lady should be careful."
Just as Lin Yaoyao was about to say something, she heard a scream coming from the direction of the castle.
Lin Yaoyao was shocked and quickly looked towards the castle with Xiaobai.
They saw Luo Yangtian being thrown out covered in blood, looking extremely miserable.
Taking advantage of this moment, the man in black instantly disappeared.
"Sigh, I almost got discovered. Being a master is really not easy."
At逍遥峰, Ye Kong said, pulling down the black cloth on his mouth, and sighed.
"I hope Lin Yaoyao and the others can heed the warning. The master's help ends here."
Ye Kong finished speaking to himself, then threw down the Tongtian Mirror and went to lie on the couch.
