Getting Stronger By Fighting

"That’s right. Since we’ve already arrived here, we can’t just leave inexplicably. We have to go inside and take a look, see what’s really inside..."

Wang Zhan spoke first.

Of course, Li Du and Zhao Feiyu shared the same intentions. You must stand up where you fall, and now that they’ve reached this point, especially with so many experts around them, they naturally want to enter and handle everything promptly.

In the blink of an eye, everyone had already made up their minds. After all, Wang Zhan was their backbone. Since Wang Zhan had made his decision, they couldn’t hesitate any longer; they could only swiftly follow in Wang Zhan’s footsteps, and then enter to uncover the secrets within.

In an instant, Wang Zhan and the others had entered the ruins.

Looking around, it seemed nothing had changed from before.

Moreover, a sense of decay permeated the area.

Wang Zhan slightly squinted his eyes and saw mysterious circles existing one after another. Upon seeing these, Zhao Feiyu and Li Du instinctively hid to the side. It was their curiosity back then that led them to be controlled by these circles, without even having time to get away.

Wang Zhan also pointed at the circles before him and said, "I guess you two are unaware. These circles can control a person’s body, or even pull them in. Unless an external force breaks them, no matter how powerful you are, escaping becomes extremely difficult..."

Fire Qilin and Sword Spirit nodded, deciding not to approach the circles.

After all, considering their strength, they naturally didn’t want to test what the circles could do.

If they were indeed controlled by the circles, it would be of no benefit to them.

Quickly, everyone followed the circles inward; having suffered prior setbacks here, they maneuvered smoothly this time, swiftly passing through the circle area.

But what puzzled the group was the walls before them, completely blocking their path.

Zhao Feiyu was the first to say, "I believe you’ve seen clearly. We didn’t deceive you back then. This space is indeed so small that you can see everything clearly. We didn’t find any Divine Beast here, nor did we discover any treasures. So we confidently declared that there aren’t any dangers in these ruins."

Wang Zhan and the others exchanged glances.

Sword Spirit shook his head and spoke, "Things aren’t as simple as you think. Behind this wall, there are positive energy fluctuations, and these ruins are perilous, surely storing some treasures. Otherwise, why would someone waste time building such a terrifying ruin here?"

One should know, being able to create space is an extraordinary means reaching the realm of perfection, and such individuals, surely have their own intentions. So, not only will there be guardian beasts, but possibly some valuable things.

Upon hearing Sword Spirit’s words, Zhao Feiyu grinned and said, "Now that we know secrets lie beyond this wall, let’s not waste time anymore. Let me see what’s truly behind it."

While speaking, Zhao Feiyu swiftly raised his hand, and struck towards the wall.

The others quickly stepped back.

As Zhao Feiyu attacked, the ground trembled.

Immediately, Wang Zhan shot into the air, quickly arrived in front of Zhao Feiyu, and grasped his arm, rapidly retreating together.

In an instant, Zhao Feiyu had retreated a bit.

Sure enough, what appeared before them was a dark, cavernous opening.

"There really are secrets here?"

Li Du’s eyes lit up, he laughed and said, "If we continue down this path, we’ll surely uncover the secrets here, and understand what’s truly hidden! This is fantastic."

Speaking, Li Du moved further inside.

"You’re quite impulsive..."

Wang Zhan followed closely behind, grumbling.

Li Du laughed and said, "Fortune favors the brave, and if there are treasures inside, I intend to be the first to grab them, so I need to hurry, lest you seize the opportunity."

Of course, Wang Zhan knew Li Du was joking, so he didn’t mind.

Wang Zhan then stated, "Alright, just let things unfold naturally. If the treasures inside are destined for you, even if we try to take them, we won’t succeed. What’s yours is yours, and if they’re not meant for you, no matter how hard you try, you won’t claim them."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Indeed, Wang Zhan’s words held some truth.

After all, if there are divine weapons or Genius Earth Treasures, they would find their rightful owner.

Just like how Sword Spirit met Wang Zhan; perhaps it was destined, thus they became inseparable comrades.

Xiang Tian laughed and said, "By that logic, it benefits me too. Given my strength compared to you all, there’s quite a gap. If I get the chance to obtain treasures inside, it would be a blessing..."

The group exchanged glances, shaking their heads with resignation.

Nonetheless, their chat eased the atmosphere considerably.

They stopped worrying.

Yet Wang Zhan and the others remained vigilant, lest they be caught off guard.

In the blink of an eye, Wang Zhan and company had ventured deeper into the cavern.

They saw a grand palace, evidently everything outside was merely barriers, meant to shield what was within.

Wang Zhan laughed and said, "With treasures so near, everyone must be exceedingly cautious going forward. Don’t easily touch things, lest you trigger mechanisms and invite unnecessary trouble. Got it?"

The ruins harbor countless unknown dangers, and nothing within should be touched lightly. Otherwise, their situation could grow increasingly challenging.

Although Wang Zhan wasn’t the most powerful here, he had ventured into many ruins over time and knew much about them, hence he cautioned everyone.

All of them took a glance, and nodded.

They believed Wang Zhan without hesitation, and naturally wouldn’t purposely oppose him.

"I’ve said everything needed. Let’s all head inside. If anything unusual arises, regroup immediately. Never fight solo."

Everyone nodded.

Wang Zhan understood well; those around him were trustworthy and wouldn’t wrong him, so he needn’t worry, he relaxed.

Even if they found something valuable, none would hog it.

Though the palace was vast, they had sufficient manpower.

Xiang Tian stayed close to Wang Zhan, his strength compared to the others was far too lacking, not sharing the same level. It posed his safety as a concern, avoiding needless trouble.

After taking a few steps, Xiang Tian cautiously said, "Brother Wang, did you notice? The paintings here seem to portray stories, like a mini-series."

Wang Zhan squinted, and gazed where Xiang Tian pointed. His eyes narrowed slightly - Xiang Tian wasn’t joking; the paintings indeed held peculiarities.

Wang Zhan examined them closely, folded his arms, saying, "This seems to detail someone’s growth history. Could this person be the owner of these ruins? If so, the ruins’ purpose becomes clear - possibly to leave memories for successors."

"Proving they’re not very capable..."

Xiang Tian shook his head, "If they were top-tier experts, why overdo things so?"

"After all, if they’re truly invincible, just a name would suffice for immortality!"

He made a reasonable point.
