Chapter 349: Chapter 349 – Clues of the Ruins

Chapter 349: Clues of the Ruins

At the borders of the ancient battlefield .

A spirit light streaked through the air at an extremely fast speed .

If one focused their gaze, they would be able to make out faintly a spirit vessel carrying 10 cultivators and a demon beast . At the bow of the vessel, a green-robed cultivator stood steering its direction .

The green-robed cultivator was Su Zimo .

On the spirit vessel, the injured cultivators had already bandaged their wounds simply and changed into new sets of robes . Only, they still looked pale, fatigued and weak .

Everyone looked at the green-robed cultivator at front, filled with emotions and deep thoughts .

It could be said that they would have all been dead for this ancient battlefield expedition if not for him .

Right now, they did not even have the strength to ride on their flying swords .

However, even after slaying three six meridian Foundation Establishment Cultivators in the battle, Su Zimo had the energy to control the spirit vessel, carrying everyone with it . His physique was truly something that shocked everyone .

There was a hint of fear in the depths of Jun Hao’s eyes .

Before long, the spirit vessel stopped at the foot of a mountain .

Leaping down, Su Zimo found a cave at the foot of the mountain based on the map . It was spacious inside and they could settle down temporarily .

Once everyone entered the cave, Su Zimo guarded the entrance to lay down formations .

Even though everyone had stopped the bleeding from their injuries, the stench of blood would still spread . The living beings of the ancient era were extremely sensitive to such a smell and would definitely find their way here .

Therefore, Su Zimo had to lay down some simple array formations at the entrance of the cave to isolate the sounds and auras within before adding concealment formations . It was only then that they could be considered safe .

These were all support formations and were relatively simple . Before night arrived, Su Zimo was already done with them .

Ji Yaoxue came over and said, “Zimo, let’s take turns standing guard tonight . ”

“That’s right, bro . Take a rest tonight and we’ll take turns standing guard . Don’t worry!” Little fatty patted his chest and declared confidently .

Throughout the entire process, everyone did not help much . They felt embarrassed and wanted to try their best to share Su Zimo’s burden .

“There’s no need . ”

Su Zimo waved his hand . “Rest well and regain your strength as soon as possible . Night Spirit will guard over here . ”

At the mention of Night Spirit, a look of fear flickered through everyone’s eyes .

Even though it merely attacked for a brief moment during the battle in the day, it was way too shocking .

If the feeling that Su Zimo gave off to everyone was one of unpredictability, the feeling that Night Spirit gave off was one of fear!

…

Nighttime .

On this day, everyone had been through too much and were worn out physically and mentally . Now that they were finally relaxed, most of them fell asleep .

Night Spirit rose and walked out of the cave stealthily . It melted into the darkness and vanished .

Su Zimo was not worried about Night Spirit .

Its strength right now was equivalent to the peak of Foundation Establishment . Furthermore, they were at the borders of the ancient battlefield right now and there was nothing that could threaten it .

Sitting quietly in the cave, Su Zimo tidied the day’s gains .

There were a total of 60 storage bags!

Even though there were no supreme-grade spirit weapons within them, there were many superior-grade spirit weapons and plenty of elixirs .

He chose a couple of perfect-grade elixirs and put them away for his own use while placing the rest together .

After tidying everything, Su Zimo took out a few maps and matched them .

A fragrance wafted over as Ji Yaoxue came over and sat down beside him .

“What’s wrong? You can’t get to sleep?”

Su Zimo turned his head slightly and asked in a soft voice .

In the darkness, Ji Yaoxue pursed her lips and whispered, “Zimo, thank you… for today . ”

“It’s fine . ”

He smiled .

Ji Yaoxue relaxed at the sight of Su Zimo’s smile and asked curiously, “What are you looking at?”

“You came at the right time . Do you know of any clues to the ancient ruins?” He asked .

Cultivating in the ancient battlefield was only one aspect . More importantly, it was obtaining the Meridian Unlocking Elixir along with other treasures and inheritances .

All of those items only existed within the ruins of the ancient battlefield .

“No . ”

Ji Yaoxue shook her head . “Most of the ruins around the borders of the ancient battlefield have been looted entirely and there are few that are undiscovered . ”

“Take a look at this . ”

Su Zimo opened up the few maps in his hands and placed it before Ji Yaoxue, pointing to a red dot . “This location has been indicated on these few maps . I suspect that this is an ancient ruin that was discovered by the Great Shang and Great Xia dynasties!”

“Indeed . ”

Ji Yaoxue held up the few maps and matched them before nodding .

Even though she was moved, there was a look of worry in her eyes . “We’re currently shorthanded . This ruin will definitely attract many factions and cultivators, leading to a cruel battle . ”

“It’s alright . ”

Su Zimo smiled gently . “There are no powerful sects and top tier cultivators at the borders of the ancient battlefield . Furthermore, we’ve already destroyed a large part of the Great Shang and Great Xia dynasties’ strength . They won’t be a threat . ”

“When should we set off?” Ji Yaoxue asked .

“10 days from now . ”

Su Zimo replied in a deep voice, “Heal your injuries in the 10 days and stabilize your cultivation realm . Once everyone has recovered, we’ll set off . ”

The two of them chatted a little more before Ji Yaoxue went back to rest upon Su Zimo’s persuasion .

Shifting his gaze, he looked towards Jun Hao in the crowd .

He had a vague feeling that there was something amiss about Jun Hao . However, he could not kill the latter just because he looked strange without concrete evidence .

However, Su Zimo was certain that there was a Great Xia Dynasty spy of high status among the people remaining .

Retracting his gaze, he smiled gently .

No matter who the spy was, that person would not dare to behave recklessly from today on .

Those tricks were nothing but a joke in the face of absolute strength!

Late at night .

A dark shadow entered from outside the cave stealthily without alerting anyone .

Sensing something, Su Zimo opened his eyes and glanced at Night Spirit .

He could sense a blood stench emanating from Night Spirit’s body and it was somewhat familiar .

It was the Blood Centipede King’s aura!

In that 6 hours, Night Spirit had returned to that desert and killed the Blood Centipede King!

Su Zimo chuckled – he was the only one who could guess what Night Spirit was thinking .

In the day, Night Spirit had to protect Su Xiaoning and could not venture too far . It was most likely fed up that it could only run from those Blood Centipedes .

Now that Su Zimo was guarding this place at night, Night Spirit went over and killed that Blood Centipede King straight!

Rising, Su Zimo nodded to Night Spirit .

The two of them had a tacit understanding . Now that Night Spirit had returned and was guarding the cave, Su Zimo left the place .

Due to the Soundproof Formation, it was quiet within the cave .

The moment he left the cave, Su Zimo heard the roars of beasts and the cries of birds . The world shook, the trees swayed and the grass rustled . It was as though there was some terrifying existence nearby that was absolutely frightening!

It was a completely different world inside and outside the cave!

Despite being in such an environment, Su Zimo did not show the slightest trace of fear . Instead, he looked slightly excited and his blood was rumbling .

At night, the world belonged to the ancient demon beasts .

However, it also belonged to Su Zimo!

After all, from a certain perspective, Su Zimo… was a demon!
