That must be it!

The people of the Ye and Zhao Families have discovered a new Gate of Relic!

Then, does this gate represent the official opening of an ancient ruin, or is it the foreshadowing for the opening of an ancient ruin?

Xia Xinghe glanced at the Dragon Slaying Mountain Range, then looked at the other side of the gorge. In the next moment, he made up his mind. He would go to the Dragon Slaying Mountain Range!

Whether or not this relic door really did represent the opening of an ancient relic, Xia Xingchen didn't want to miss this chance.

Devouring the spiritual energy of heaven and earth could be put aside for a while, even if it was not in the Sea Suppressing Canyon, the place would still be the same, but the gate to the relic was different. If the gate to the relic appeared this time, and it really was the opening of the ancient relic, then Xia Xinghe could not afford to miss it!

With a thought, Xia Xinghe no longer hesitated and immediately pushed his speed to the limit. He turned into a golden sword of light, shooting straight in the direction of the Dragon Slaying Mountain!

"Quick!" "Faster!" Violent streams of air whistled past his ears. Xia Xinghe's speed had almost exceeded the limits of what he could endure, but he still felt that it was too slow!

If the gate to the ancient ruins truly opened on behalf of the ancient ruins, then the person who entered the ancient ruins first would obtain great benefits …

With regards to everything within the ancient ruins, the first to enter would have the priority to explore.

There were also spirit items, treasures, techniques, and they could all be grasped by the people who entered first. Once those secrets were grasped, then against those who entered the ancient ruins later, they would have an innate advantage.

Even if the first people to enter didn't get anything, they would have enough time to ambush at a certain location and ambush the next group of people who entered the ancient ruins.

All in all, the reason why the stars had been arranged so long was because they wanted to be the first ones to enter the ancient ruins!

Xia Xinghe was still madly running. When the first ray of sunlight shone on the earth, Xia Xinghe finally appeared within the Dragon Slaying Mountain!

Actually, when Xia Xinghe left the great oceanic canyon, he had already reached the alternating black and white stage. However, fortunately, Xia Xinghe's memory was superb, so even though the fiery light pointing in his direction had already been swallowed by the sunlight, Xia Xinghe still relied on his memory to remember the mountain peak that lit up the sky.

Without a moment's hesitation, Xia Xinghe followed the directions of his memory and quickly rushed to the mountain peak that was previously filled with fire.

Coincidentally, Xia Xinghe met Chu Qingcheng and Ye Tong at the foot of the mountain.

"Young Master Xia!" With regards to the appearance of Xia Xinghe, Chu Qingcheng didn't show any signs of surprise. The ancient ruins were originally the target of everyone, and after discovering the anomaly in the Dragon Slaying Mountain Range, it was normal for Xia Xingchen to rush over at the first possible moment.

Xia Xinghe nodded at Chu Qingcheng, before asking Ye Tong urgently, "Has the spiritual energy net appeared again?"

At the same time, Chu Qingcheng and Ye Tong also appeared at the foot of the mountain, and Xia Xinghe wasn't surprised at all. It must be because after Ye Tong discovered the gate to the ruins, he immediately rushed back to the East Sea City to search for Xia Xinghe, but since Xia Xinghe wasn't here, Ye Tong had sped up the news for Chu Qingcheng, which led to the scene of Chu Qingcheng and Ye Tong appearing together at the Dragon Slaying Mountain Range.

"As Young Master Xia expected, we've discovered a new spiritual energy net. It's just that the intensity of the spiritual energy net this time is much weaker than last time." Ye Tong respectfully replied to Xia Xinghe, his eyes filled with fear.

Receiving Ye Tong's affirmation, Xia Xinghe didn't say anything further and accelerated straight to the top of the mountain!

Seeing Xia Xinghe acting like this, Chu Qingcheng didn't hesitate any longer. She immediately called Ye Tong over, and followed closely behind Xia Xinghe as they rushed towards the peak of the mountain.

Two afterimages rushed to the top of the mountain one after another. Ye Tong was the only one left standing still … Until now, Ye Tong still hadn't figured out what the spiritual energy web represented …

A pair of cold eyes flashed across the bushes a few hundred feet away from Ye Tong.

Behind the bushes, three figures were huddled together, seemingly discussing something … These three people were Zhou Yu, Qu Mei, and Xu Fei!

"Third brother, I personally witnessed Xia Xinghe and Chu Qingcheng climbing the mountain. Not only that, judging from their expressions, they seemed to be extremely impatient." It's rare for Xu Fei to speak, but his voice was incomparably cold, "Do you want to kill the two of you midway? "It's impossible for Chu Qingcheng's cultivation to recover overnight. That mysterious half-step grandmaster should not have left the Lan Clan either. Right now, it's our best chance to kill Xia Xingchen!"

Zhou Yu laughed coldly as he shook his head, "Don't do anything yet. I think it would be better for Xia Xing and Chu Qingcheng to lead the way."

Qu Mei thought for a moment and said softly, "Third brother is right! I just received news that there are spies from the Shadow Army. Jing San thinks that Xia Xingchen's understanding of the ancient ruins far surpasses the information that the Falling Cloud Sect has provided us. The ancient ruins must be filled with traps and danger.

Xu Fei kept his mouth shut, but Zhou Yu nodded with a smile.

"Very good!" Zhou Yu said with a faint smile, "Then we'll also quietly follow. As long as Xia Xinghe enters the gate of the ancient ruins, we'll immediately rush in!"

As soon as Zhou Yu finished speaking, the three figures immediately disappeared from where they were, flashing towards the direction of the mountain peak.

At the same time, on the other side of the mountain peak, over a hundred black-clothed people were gathered together. However, there was not even a single trace of chaos, as if those hundred plus people did not even breathe as they only stood there silently.

The expressionless Jing San and the eager Tan Xiong, who were standing in front of the hundred plus black-clothed people, stared fixedly in the direction of the mountain peak …

"San Ye, what are you waiting for?" The scouts have reported that Xia Xinghe has gone up the mountain! " Tan Xiong lowered his voice, sounding extremely anxious.

"Qian Si and Feng Wu are not here yet. Wait a little longer!" There was still no expression on Jing San's frightening face. "Perhaps, it would be more advantageous for us for Xia Xing to scout ahead."

After hearing Jing San's words, Tan Xiong could only helplessly shake his head.

Although Tan Xiong really wanted to rush to the top of the mountain, he didn't dare disobey Jing San's orders. Under his helplessness, he could only continue to wait.

Just like Zhou Yu, Jing San also had the idea of letting Xia Xingchen explore the path first. This conflicted with Xia Xinghe's idea of becoming number one because there was no Azure Dragon in the Shadow Squad and the TianChu Martial Academy!

The green dragon had clearly told Xia Xingchen that once the gate to the ancient ruins opened, anyone could safely pass through it and enter into the ancient ruins. At most, the disciples of the Demon Sect's Mirror of the Heavens and the Gate of the Demon Sect's Mirror of the Ancient Era would only be suppressed by the strange power inside.

Both the two forces felt that this ancient ruin was definitely filled with thorns, and it was impossible to enter so easily. That was why the two forces wanted Xia Xinghe to take the lead and scout the way, which was why this scene appeared … It was clear that the mountain peak was ablaze with blazing flames that could be seen even from the Xia Xinghe of the Zenith Sea Canyon. However, after entering the Dragon Slaying Mountain Range, Xia Xinghe didn't even notice a shadow.

The moment Xia Xinghe's figure appeared, thousands of Ye Clan and Zhao Clan troops all made way for him. Xia Xinghe, too, completely ignored the allied army, as he quickly passed through the crowd and stepped into the center of the stage together with Chu Qingcheng …

Surprisingly, there was a thirty meters wide and tall net of blood-colored spiritual energy in front of his eyes. It was exactly the same as the one he had seen last time.

After probing with his soul consciousness, Xia Xinghe was sure that the energy emitted by the spiritual energy net this time was much weaker than last time. However, Xia Xinghe's soul consciousness still couldn't explore the inside of the spiritual energy net.

Did this mean that the spiritual energy web this time around was really the precursor to the opening of the ancient ruins?

"Young master Xia …" Chu Qingcheng frowned, not knowing what to say.

Xia Xinghe waved her hands, stopping Chu Qingcheng from asking any further questions. After which, as Xia Xinghe sat down on the ground, he called out to the Azure Dragon in his heart.

In Xia Xinghe's Sky Heaven's Aura Sea, the green dragon was shaking its head, stretching its dragon body as if it had just woken up.

"Master, I'm here." The Azure Dragon forcibly expelled the tiredness from his mind and used a flattering voice to reply to Xia Xingchen in his mind.

"Can you feel how different this time's Gate of Remains is from the last time?" Xia Xing didn't waste any time on words and went straight to the point.

When the green dragon heard this, his dragon face immediately revealed a serious human-like expression. Through his special connection with Xia Xinghe, he began to feel the changes in this relic door …

At this moment, no one spoke. Everyone just stood there quietly, not daring to even breathe.

Similarly, Xia Xinghe didn't dare to say anything. He was afraid of interrupting the Azure Dragon's comprehension. After all, only the Azure Dragon had entered this ancient ruin 300 years ago!

Time passed by, minute after minute. After an unknown amount of time, finally, the Azure Dragon in the aurasea of Xia Xingtian's Heavenly Abode had a response …

"Master!" The ancient ruins will soon open! " The Azure Dragon's voice had an irrepressible excitement in it, "The energy fluctuation of this relic door is almost to the extreme, it's the same as 300 years ago when I mysteriously entered the relic!"

The Azure Dragon's roar continued to echo in Xia Xinghe's mind. After a long time, Xia Xinghe finally recovered from his shock … That's right, when faced with the opening of an ancient ruin, even the Star Emperor would have a moment of absent-mindedness. After all, the ancient era was a time where even the Star Emperor had never come in contact with it!

Xia Xinghe took a deep breath and slowly stood up, maintaining the spiritual connection with the Azure Dragon. This was because Xia Xinghe was about to enter an ancient ruin, and as the only person who had entered an ancient ruin, the Azure Dragon's suggestion was still worth Xia Xinghe's reference.

"Miss Chu, are you sure?" Xia Xinghe heavily breathed out, as he inclined his head slightly to the side, looking at Chu Qingcheng.

After being questioned by Xia Xinghe, a look of shock appeared on Chu Qingcheng's beautiful face. Without a doubt, Chu Qingcheng knew the meaning behind Xia Xinghe's words: the ancient ruins she had been searching for were about to be opened soon!
