Chapter 251: Small Thunder Temple and the Secret of the Underground Palace

Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

“What on earth is in Ancient Ruins to let so many people focus on?!”

“No one knows what is in Ancient Ruins. Among these independent spaces of the antiquity times, some of them may even produce fairy weapons sometimes. However, they may also produce nothing but danger. Nevertheless, the showing up of the latest Ancient Ruins occurred thousands of years ago. No one knows how it came into being or which one in the antiquity times created it!”

“But why are so many people still running there?”

“Danger and opportunity are coexisting. Otherwise Moon Deer of Extended Net, that guy wouldn’t have been in such a plight!” Jin Yuquan just sneered and said.

“But, according to the rules of the Immortal Palace, even if Zhang finds the ruins and profits from them, the palace will not pay any attention, right?”

“Sure, but the prerequisite was that he is able to manage it. Now you see, he can’t manage it and we are now involved!”

“That might be a good thing!”

“Good is shit!” Jin Yuquan shook head and said, “Do not think that something good is in that ruins or that treasures are everywhere. I’m telling you, countless powerful men have been buried in Ancient Ruins since the medieval period, even someone with Fiery Eyes could not make a successful retreat, let alone today that the bloodline of Fiery Eyes is extinct!”

“You seem to have a good understanding of Fiery Eyes,” Junior Leopard said, seemingly nonchalantly, “there’re many legends about Fiery Eyes, but the legends I know are too unbelievable. I didn’t know Fiery Eyes could be so beneficial when exploring Ancient Ruins!”

“Ancient Ruins have not appeared for thousands of years, and only a few people know of their existence. No wonder you have never heard about it. As to Fiery Eyes, numerous views exist in the upper echelons of Jianghu, but these are farfetched hearsay. No one except the one who truly owns them, knows the real function of Fiery Eyes. What people really know about them is the fact that they are the best material for refining external elixir, and this is due to the fact that they’re able to dramatically enhance the spiritual mind of the owner, as well as finding the ruins directly. For other things, it might be, each according to his lights!”

“Then, why did people destroy the bloodlines of Fiery Eyes at that time?”

“The genocide of the bloodlines of Fiery Eyes is creepy, even the Immortal Palace knows nothing about who designed it. You know, at that time, due to the strong potential of Fiery Eyes, all the schools in the martial arts world enthusiastically searched for the disciples with the bloodline of Fiery Eyes to cultivate. For this reason, people with such bloodlines were gathered in all kinds of great schools, including Tian Long Taoism, Sect of Flame, Dark Sect and so on. These people existed on both the good and the evil side. But one day, in these great schools, the disciples with Fiery Eyes collectively betrayed and they were widely hunted all over the world. Gradually it became a big matter affecting the whole martial arts world. These schools not only hunted the betrayers, but also the people with the bloodline of Fiery Eyes. It seemed to premeditate. Over a short period of three years, all the bloodlines of Fiery Eyes were liquidated!”

“Didn’t Immortal Palace participate in it?”

“No, the palace never does such boring things, and this thing is obviously related to the secret of those great schools. Their behavior later on proved it. Whenever the bloodline of Fiery Eyes showed up, they would immediately appear and kill the person with it, resolving to destroy whole bloodlines!”

“Isn’t Immortal Palace interested in it?”

“There’s no owner of Fiery Eyes in the Immortal Palace, thus, we have nothing to do with it!” Golden Rooster shook head and said, “besides, this is the secret of those great schools. Inquiring about the secrets of others is taboo in Jianghu, and Immortal Palace will never do such thankless tasks!”

“But now Ancient Ruins have appeared… If only there was a person with the bloodline of Fiery Eyes!”

“Come on, do not make trouble. Having the bloodline of Fiery Eyes is not likely a good thing,” Jin Yuquan shook his head and took a glimpse at Junior Leopard, “but it would be a good thing if you were able to get a Fiery Eye as an External Elixir!”

Junior Leopard, saying nothing, just giggled and went on ahead.

The journey took another day. They met several groups of experts during the journey, among which the smaller ones looked like them, consisting of only two members, while the bigger ones consisted of three or four members. They kept a certain distance when meeting others, separating after being contacted. They never greeted, talked to, nor provoked a huge row.

Both Junior Leopard and Golden Rooster were dressed like the 28 constellations in the Immortal Palace. Among these experts, most of them, whose cultivation was above Level Eight, seemed to know of the existence of Immortal Palace. Even those who didn’t know the background of the two naturally knew that they were not to be trifled with when seeing their peculiar attire. Believing that the less trouble they encountered, the better, certainly all of them avoided causing any trouble for the two. Therefore, the two didn’t encounter any problems on their journey.

Although the two had profound cultivation, they felt fatigue after flying for a whole day. Suspended in the air and seeing the vast blue waves, Junior Leopard gave a wry smile and said, “Well, Golden Rooster, the East Sea is broad and immense, where can we find Moon Deer of Extended Net?”

“Follow those guys. I’m now sure that the hunting down of Moon Deer of Extended Net is related to the Ancient Ruins. We don’t know where it is, but it should be in the orient according to the flying direction of the people we met throughout the day. Despite Moon Deer of Extended Net’s cultivation being Level Seven, it’s not a patch on us. After being hunted for such a long time, he should be injured and not able to escape much further. Either he is so unlucky that he has been caught already or he is so lucky that he has already entered the Ancient Ruins. Nobody is quite sure!”

“But…”

“Come on, go after taking a rest. I suppose the journey will end soon!”

“Let’s go!”

…

…

The East Sea was so vast that all that could be obtained from taking a broad view was the sea water. There were some isolated islands which could be seen occasionally, protruding above the boundless sea and seemingly about to be devoured at any time by the surging waves.

The two flew for half a day and didn’t stop until the night totally fell and the bright moonlight rose above the sea level.

What was in front of them was a huge island having a circumference of 50 kilometers; the undulating hills on the island also nearly stretched the same length of the island, taking up more than half of the island.

Suspended in the air and being nearly five or more kilometers away from the island, the two heard the sound of booming and felt the occasional exploded gloss of Gang Qi.

“Is it here?”

“Sounds about right!”

The two blocked their spirits and slowly landed on the island.

“Luo Haiyun, do you think you are able to escape the hunting of our Wang family?”

“The Wang family in Cenzhou?”

The violent roaring happened to be heard by Junior Leopard as soon as he landed on the island, “What a small f**king world! I meet the Wang’s family members in such a deserted place!”

“Luo Haiyun is Moon Deer of Extended Net. He is the current family head of Luo family in the Minshan Commandery, which has also been a distinguished family for centuries. But it’s far more inferior to the Wang family, the millennium family!”

Junior Leopard nodded, “What should we do now? Save him?”

“Just wait and see. Moon Deer of Extended Net has a defensive celestial device with him which is hard to beat in battle, it’s totally enough for self-protection!”

Junior Leopard knowingly nodded, turning his eyes to the battlefield.

At this moment, the fighting had been incandesced. Luo Haiyun was a middle-aged man that could be judged as handsome. But now he was in a tough plight. His magnificent robe was in shreds and stained by blood, dangling on his body. His messy hair was arbitrarily dispersed and stuck on his face by sweat. Luo Haiyun’s face was pale due to losing too much blood and he had a layer of yellow Gang Qi wrapped him, but the Qi seemed a bit dark when flashing. It seemed that he could not hold on for much longer.

Four experts of Level Seven were besieging Luo Haiyun. They were all dressed in the same attire. In Junior Leopard’s eyes, the clothes style was similar to the attire of the Wang’s slaves in the grassland. But their clothes were golden and more gorgeous compared to the slaves in cyan, and the material used for making the clothes was certainly superior to those humble ones.

They fiercely jumped towards Luo Haiyun with Gang Qi of various colors glittering on their bodies. The difference was nuanced in terms of cultivation, however, Luo Haiyun outnumbered, which meant they were at an absolute advantage. Moreover, an expert whose clothes style was similar, but of a dark gold color, was on the battlefield. The spirit coming from him was 100% of Level Eight.

“You said Luo had a defensive celestial device? Why he doesn’t use it?” Junior Leopard asked acoustically.

“It seems that he may have already used it, thus he is able to be alive now!” Golden Rooster’s eyesight was cast upon the man in dark gold, “Wang Yuebai! It’s unexpected that he is here!”

“Wang Yuebai, the most powerful man in the Wang family?”

“Besides him, look at the saber in his hand. That should be the Pero Purple Striped Saber, the top wizard weapon of the Wang family. Only this saber is able to break Moon Deer of Extended Net’s Marvelous Wheel. But you see, his hands are shivering, which illustrates that he was also badly injured by breaking the wheel. It’s the reason why he is holding the line on the edge of the battlefield!”

“What should we do?” Junior Leopard clenched his fists. He bore a grudge against the Wang family in Cenzhou. If he took this opportunity, he could reduce the number of experts in the Wang family and dramatically weaken the Wangs’ power, it would kill two birds with one stone.

Although the Wang family was a millennium family, it didn’t have too many experts, let alone the most powerful man like Wang Yuebai!

“Look at Moon Deer of Extended Net. It seems that Luo family in Minshan is over. Is the feud between the two families unresolvable?”

“What are we waiting for?”

“Nothing!” Golden Rooster said and then emerged from his hiding place, “Stop it, mates!”

“Who are you?” Wang Yuebai turned around abruptly. He was embarrassed when seeing Golden Rooster’s attire.

“Immortal Palace?!”

“Sun Rooster of Hairy Head and Water Leopard of Winnowing Basket from Immortal Palace,” Golden Rooster said, Junior Leopard then appeared behind him, “Sir, you are holding the Pero Purple Striped Saber, you must be Wang Yuebai, the most powerful man in Wang family?”

“Yes, I am. Since you showed up, may I ask what do you need?”

“Let your fellows stop. Luo Haiyun is Moon Deer of Extended Net, a member of the 28 constellations in the Immortal Palace. If you don’t stop, you will be the enemies of the Immortal Palace!”

Wang Yuebai suddenly showed a scowling face.

“He is one of the 28 constellations?”

“Yes, please stop!”

“He is the formidable enemy of our family due to killing our three experts and a dozen of our masters of martial arts. We have taken great pains to keep him here…”

“Hum!”

Golden Rooster used a cold snort to interrupt Wang Yuebai. His black cloak was waving without wind, and an intangible stream of air, which was the spirit of the expert of level eight, was sent from him. With a flash of gold, his two hands were wrapped by a layer of golden iron claw. He slightly tilted and told Junior Leopard, “Bring Moon Deer of Extended Net out and kill anyone who resists!”

“I see!” Junior Leopard nodded and his fingertips slightly moved. A luxuriant green streamer lingered among his fingertips like a snake, but his figure rushed like a ghost towards the simple formation made by the four men.

“Sir, do not push us too far!” Seeing Golden Rooster let Junior Leopard take action without saying something ritual, Wang Yuebai suddenly shouted and exhibited the Pero Purple Striped Saber in front of him, “You are from Immortal Palace, but Wang family in Cenzhou is also hard to be trifled with!”

“Ah!”

“Oh, no!”

“Ding, ding, ding!”

After Junior Leopard rushed toward the four-man formation, several faint noises were heard. Almost without any motion, the light of Blue Sword flashed in a weird electric arc, beating back the enemies in only a single bout.

“You are a sword practitioner!”

Junior Leopard’s undisguised and extremely sharp Sword Qi could never be ignored by Wang Yuebai, although he was confronting with Golden Rooster.

Junior Leopard didn’t pay attention to Wang Yuebai. He brandished the sword and drove away all four of the experts before he arrived next to Luo Haiyun. Dragging Luo Haiyun and flashing his figure several times, he arrived back next to Golden Rooster.

“What a fast speed! What an exquisite sword technique! It’s unexpected that there’s a sword practitioner in Immortal Palace!” Wang Yuebai said gashing his teeth, “This time, our Wang family has been defeated, let’s go!”

He waved his hand to call the other four Level Seven experts, and then they flew and left.

“He is clever!” watching the four depart, Golden Rooster smiled faintly, “It’s unexpected that you didn’t kill them, that makes me curious!”

“Why should I kill them?” Junior Leopard asked faintly, “Today we come here to save people, not kill them!”

“Right, we come here to save people!” Golden Rooster nodded and took a glimpse of Luo Haiyun, “Moon Deer of Extended Net, it seems that you are badly injured!”

“Oh, oh” Moon Deer of Extended Net coughed and spat a bloody sputum, raising his head and staring at Golden Rooster, “this time… I’m beaten… The Luo family is also over… But the Wang family didn’t get what they want… I’d like to—”

“Don’t even think about it. You are a member of Immortal Palace, and certainly, you know our rules of taking orders. We will never be the enemies of the Wang family for you!”

“Well, that’s fine. I know what you mean!” Moon Deer of Extended Net nodded and didn’t insist on it, “Anyway, thank you!”

“You are the member of Immortal Palace. We should save you!” Golden Rooster’s tone became indifferent again.

“Do you know why the Wang family sent such a big force to annihilate my family and hunt me down?”

“For Ancient Ruins!”

“How do you know?” Luo Haiyun was shocked.

“Everyone with strength and power knows. We met at least eight or nine groups of them on the journey!” Golden Rooster said coldly, “It has been proved by Immortal Palace that an Ancient Ruins appeared on the East Sea, but we don’t know where it is exactly.”

“Shit!” Luo Haiyun fiercely flapped his thighs, an angry and confused expression appeared on his face.

“This time you are too greedy. If you told the news to the palace earlier, such a thing would never happen!” Golden Rooster flapped his shoulder, an expression of compassion emerged, “The Wang family was able to hunt for you for thousands of miles, insisting on slaying you. It seems that your family is indeed over!”

“We are absolutely irreconcilable!” Luo Haiyun took a deep breath and shivered, his teeth gnashed. Even Junior Leopard could feel the boundless resentment from Luo Haiyun.

Golden Rooster and Junior Leopard looked at each other and stopped mentioning it. The feud of the whole family being massacred was able to trigger anyone. No matter whom. Obviously, it’s Luo Haiyun’s own action that makes him suffer.

“Luo, do you think we should return to Immortal Palace or go to the Ancient Ruins to try our luck?” Waiting for a moment and seeing Luo Haiyun’s breath had calmed down, Jin Yuquan asked.

“Of course we should go to the Ancient Ruins. Hum, what would happen if the news of the ruins is divulged? What would happen even if these guys knew it appeared on the East Sea? They don’t know the exact location or how to enter the ruins!”

“Do you know?”

“Of course I know!” Luo Haiyun lifted his head, his eye radiating out a gloss of extreme hatred, “I also know which school of the antiquity times those ruins belong to and what may be in those ruins!”

“No wonder the Wang family decided to hunt you down. If I were them, I would possibly not be able to resist such a temptation!” Golden Rooster gave a wry smile and said, “How dare you to plan to take such benefit alone!”

Luo Haiyun said nothing, but the throbbing muscle on his face seemed chilling.

Golden Rooster took a small porcelain bottle out of his clothes and sent it to Luo Haiyun. “Take the Qi-cultivating Elixir and have a rest. Let’s go to the Ancient Ruins after you feel better!”

…

…

“Frist Elder, we just let it go? We killed the whole Luo family in Minshan Commandery and only left Luo Haiyun alive. He is the bane!”

“He is a f**king bane, but we are not capable of killing him right now!” Wang Yuebai sighed and said, “It’s unexpected that he is from Immortal Palace. We should inform the family head and let him be precautious in advance!”

“But…”

“Do you think we five people can keep the three of them?” Wang Yuebai sneered. “All of them are the members of the 28 constellations in the Immortal Palace, but we didn’t know this before. Except for hunting Luo Haiyun, there are two more constellations. To kill them all is to make enemies with Immortal Palace. I dare not. Besides, between the following two, one is an expert of Level Eight and the other is a sword practitioner. We have no strength to keep them. That sword practitioner only used his sword for but a moment to force you back. His strength is clearly remarkable. When breaking Luo Haiyun’s celestial device, I was injured by its backfire. The Pero Purple Striped Saber was also damaged, and its combat capability also decreased dramatically. Forget keeping them, half of us would die if a confrontation occurred!”

“But…”

“Come on, this thing is so serious that we should inform the family head right now and let him decide. To put it more seriously, it’s possibly of vital importance to the Wang family’s existence. Being different than others, the Immortal Palace is a powerful force from the antiquity times, its basis is more profound than all the contemporary well-known families, prestigious barons, and thousand-year prominent schools. Masters and experts are crowding there. You’d rather knock yourself on a tofu than provoke them!”

“That’s to say, we are at the mercy of Immortal Palace?”

“No, it isn’t!” Wang Yuebai shook head, “Immortal Palace is not the only powerful force from the antiquity times, besides, they have conventional rules and constraints. They will never act like other schools or families. That is to say, helping Luo Haiyun is one thing, but whether they will help him to retaliate or not is another thing. Therefore, we only need to worry about the problem of Luo Haiyun and not worry about the problem of Immortal Palace. Otherwise, the world would have already been in a mess.

“Frist Elder, you mean, these forces from antiquity times will not arbitrarily interfere Jianghu?” One man asked cautiously.

Wang Yuebai took a glimpse of him and sighed “I’m only of Level Eight, how can I know so many things? Let’s go back and let the family head decide everything.”

“How about the Ancient Ruins? Do we really just give up?” Another one asked.

“What else can we do? It has come to this point. Do you think Luo Haiyun will take us to the Ancient Ruins? Do you think our strength is able to follow behind the three? Wang Yuebai gave a wry smile and said, “Old Ding, stop thinking such useless things. Did you notice how many experts we met during the journey? It reveals that the secret of the Ancient Ruins has been divulged. Maybe the family head knows about it and the solution has come out. We only need to inform him of the problem of the Immortal Palace and wait for the dispatch!”

“Are you sure that the Ancient Ruins is the site of Small Thunder Temple?”

Meanwhile, Golden Rooster could not help but shout when he heard Luo Haiyun’s description of the ruins.

“Yes, it is.” Luo Haiyun said expressionlessly.

“I can’t believe… I can’t believe it’s the site of the Small Thunder Temple that has appeared! What a shame, we may not get any profit even if we enter. It was broken into and totally plundered by the demon tribe in the antiquity times!”

“I don’t think so!” Luo Haiyun said indifferently, “The demon tribe in the antiquity times didn’t find the underground palace!”

…
