The forest was littered with boulders and statues everywhere. There was even a boulder as big as a mountain, lying across the forest, blocking many people’s path.
"Hmm? This is interesting!"
After wandering for a long ti, Ye Chenfeng discovered that there seed to be a formation here, which allowed only movent around the edges, preventing anyone from truly entering.
"These boulders and statues form a formation. It looks like no one has been able to break it for thousands of years; we can’t get in."
Grass|Mud|Horse unwittingly said beside him, implying that Ye Chenfeng should leave.
"Why should I leave?"
Ye Chenfeng chuckled.
Grass|Mud|Horse looked at him curiously, "Do you perhaps have a way to break this ancient formation?"
"Of course not."
As Grass|Mud|Horse breathed a sigh of relief, Ye Chenfeng’s voice rang out again, "But who cares about the formation, I can just blast it open."
Grass|Mud|Horse sneered, "How is that possible?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Chenfeng suddenly leaped into the air and threw a punch at the mountain-like boulder.
"Boom..."
The fist shadow blotted out the sky and directly smashed onto the boulder.
"Crack!"
In the eyes of Grass|Mud|Horse’s horror, the boulder as big as a mountain was forcibly shattered.
Subsequently, Ye Chenfeng transford into the god of destruction, smashing one boulder after another.
...
A magical scene unfolded, and the view before them changed as if they had entered another world.
Grass|Mud|Horse was about to spit blood, never having seen soone destroy a formation with brute force like this.
A majestic and grand ancient ruins slowly appeared before their eyes, both Ye Chenfeng and Grass|Mud|Horse were taken aback.
These ruins were at least over a thousand years old, perhaps even older.
Observation revealed that a super dynasty once existed here.
Nearly twenty palaces and temples, along with thousands of buildings, surrounded by several dried-up river courses...
Based on these, the image of a super dynasty slowly ford in Ye Chenfeng’s mind.
"A super civilization must have been born here. If there were advanced archaeological tools, perhaps it could be restored."
Ye Chenfeng murmured to himself.
What exactly happened here? That a once mighty nation vanished leaving only these ruins.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Ye Chenfeng’s gaze fixed on a mottled stone slab, as he discovered that the inscriptions on it were the sa as those in the ancient scroll.
He found more inscriptions in the ruins, confirming that the text on the ancient scroll ca from this nation.
"Then there’s only one possibility, those two ca from this forgotten nation."
Ye Chenfeng thought to himself.
Within hours, riding on Grass|Mud|Horse, Ye Chenfeng had toured the ancient kingdom ruins.
He made a significant discovery: this ancient kingdom seed like a giant square box plopped down here, with no connection to the surrounding environnt at the margins.
"And there’s no way to reach the end of the world either."
Thinking there might be a passage, after searching for a long ti, he found nothing.
Ye Chenfeng began targeting these palaces and temples, inspecting them one by one.
Soon another issue arose, it seed as though the place had been looted, with nothing left inside, not even the murals on the walls were spared.
"Could it be that the Pirate King was here?"
Ye Chenfeng deeply suspected.
Virtually every palace and temple was like this, leaving nothing behind.
Initially, Ye Chenfeng thought a natural disaster had struck, overturning everything overnight.
But now it seed it was more likely man-made, possibly the ancient kingdom was eradicated by so force overnight.
Upon reaching a rather grand palace, Ye Chenfeng faintly felt a piercing chill, as if a ten-thousand-year-old iceberg was hidden beneath, the surging cold swept toward him, becoming more intense as he approached.
Grass|Mud|Horse sensed the chilling air, but instead of reacting adversely, it was full of excitent.
This palace harbored a dark and terrifying atmosphere, appearing very eerie.
Like the other palaces and temples, this place had long been ransacked.
Yet Ye Chenfeng frowned, pacing around the palace as if searching for sothing.
"Clearly sensing strong cold air, yet unable to find its source, this is too strange."
Ye Chenfeng murmured to himself.
Grass|Mud|Horse suddenly spoke up, "Are you looking for the source of the cold? Leave it to ."
Grass|Mud|Horse directly approached a sacrificial platform deep in the palace. Next to the platform was an inconspicuous little water pool, paradoxically the pool was bubbling with water, even emitting heat.
"Here... are you sure?"
Ye Chenfeng carefully sensed the area, feeling no chill at all.
"I’m sure this is it!"
Grass|Mud|Horse affird assertively.
The pool was deep, almost at chest level for a person.
"Boom..."
With a roar, the altar began to tremble, one half remained motionless while the other half collapsed to form stairs leading directly underground.
Turns out, the chanism was hidden within the pool.
"Poof!"
Instantly, a dreadful chill assaulted, dropping the palace’s temperature sharply, even a layer of frost spread over the walls.
"I estimate that at the ti soone also wanted to find the source of the chill but would never have thought the hot water pool was the entrance."
Ye Chenfeng exclaid excitedly.
"Co on, let’s go in."
Ye Chenfeng and Grass|Mud|Horse headed underground.
The chill grew heavier, tinged with a sinister aura, quite peculiar.
Grass|Mud|Horse was unafraid of the cold, and Ye Chenfeng was equally unfazed, not least because he wore the Demon Garnt.
A minute later, they descended the staircase to a palace chamber.
The chamber was not large, roughly the size of a soccer field.
They were struck by the sight of Stone Coffins engraved with various symbols and pasted with Talisman Seals, while a sinister atmosphere pervaded the air.
"This is..."
The sight almost made Ye Chenfeng doubt his reality. Expecting the palace chamber to hold Treasure, he found only Stone Coffins.
"Hmm? Wait..."
Suddenly, Ye Chenfeng realized the Stone Coffins looked strange, sowhat familiar.
He wanted to open a Stone Coffin and investigate.
"What are you doing? Don’t open the Stone Coffin. It might be dangerous, even if your power is against the heavens."
Seeing Ye Chenfeng about to open a Stone Coffin, Grass|Mud|Horse hurriedly cautioned him.
"Hiss..."
But Ye Chenfeng had already opened the Stone Coffin.
Startled, Grass|Mud|Horse imdiately went into combat mode.
In an instant, a sinister aura surged forth like a breached dam, seemingly about to subrge everything.
Nonetheless, Ye Chenfeng slapped it away with a single palm, dispelling it imdiately.
Ye Chenfeng looked inside the Stone Coffin, his eyebrows gradually knitting together, then he slamd it again, the Stone Coffin echoed with a loud boom.
Having glanced at the Stone Coffin’s interior, Ye Chenfeng finally spoke leisurely, "It really seems to be the case."
Grass|Mud|Horse leaned over with curiosity on his face, which instantly filled with a human-like expression: shock and dread.
