Li Qing’s current cultivation was only at the third level of the Void Realm, and he had never displayed any methods. Logically speaking, he should not be discovered by anyone.

Therefore, Li Qing felt very puzzled. Why did Childe Yunyou invite him to explore the ancient ruins again and again? Could it be that they really couldn’t find anyone?

Childe Yunyou and the others seemed to have noticed the doubts on Li Qing’s face. Their hearts tightened, but they mustn’t reveal any flaws. Otherwise, things might fail.

Of course, as long as they publicized Li Qing’s identity, there would naturally be people from large powers dealing with him. However, the problem was that they naturally didn’t want to share this benefit with anyone else if they wanted to take it all for themselves.

Putting aside the treasures on Li Qing’s body, they might not necessarily care about these things. The key point was exactly how did Li Qing cross the starry sky and arrive at their side of the world?

As long as they followed this method and went back, they might be able to obtain the benefits of a star, and that would be endless wealth!

They would not have any moral burden in their hearts if they wanted to murder Li Qing, because Li Qing was a guest from the outside world, not from our clan, so their hearts would definitely be different!

Perhaps Li Qing had come to this star just to find out the details of this star. In the future, more experts from the outside world would come continuously, causing great harm to them.

They dealt with Li Qing, and that was to eliminate the dangers for the people and strangle the dangers in the cradle ahead of time!

Childe Yunyou said calmly, “Fellow Daoist Li Qing, what exactly are you thinking? If you want to form a team with us or not, you should give me a letter! Don’t hesitate, we won’t harm you!”

Li Qing also wanted to see what they were up to, so he nodded and said, “Since you are sincerely inviting me, it would be a bit ungrateful if I refuse again. Alright, let’s team up with you for the next period of time.”

He was idle anyway, Currently, the Ancient Desolate Ruins were only in the early stage of exploration. There was still a long time to go into the depths of the ruins. During this period of time, Li Qing basically couldn’t find any chance to dive into them using the crystal ball alone. After all, there were several Void Realm experts watching from every corner of the ruins. It was simply impossible to achieve this.

Only by opening up a wider area would the distribution of people be more dispersed, and not all of them would be squeezed there.

They found a place to settle down. This vast desert was filled with boundless empty spaces. With the strength of a Void Realm expert, they could easily build a suitable residence.

For the sake of Liu Ke’er and Xiao Bai’s safety, Li Qing naturally had to set up layers of formations around them to protect their territory, so as not to be harassed by outsiders.

When Childe Yunyou saw the formation Li Qing had set up, his eyes revealed a thoughtful expression as he said, “I wonder where your formation came from. Why haven’t I seen it before?”

Li Qing was stunned for a moment before he remembered that the martial arts civilizations of every place had different characteristics. In the Great Thousand World, an ordinary formation might have been placed on this star, but no one had ever seen it before.

“This is the inheritance of a sect. It’s not appropriate to tell anyone. Please forgive me.” Li Qing casually said.

Childe Yunyou didn’t ask any further, but he was even more certain that Li Qing was definitely a guest from the outside world. The array he casually took out was something he had never seen before. It was impossible for it to be a human on this planet.

Judging from the methods Li Qing displayed, the star Li Qing was on should be quite strong, and the development of martial arts civilization shouldn’t fall far behind.

Childe Yunyou’s eyesight was excellent, and it was easy to tell that this array technique was very mature. From this, it could be deduced that other aspects were not too weak.

‘”After capturing Li Qing, I’ll force you to find out how to cross the void. Perhaps with our strength in the Void Realm, we won’t be able to conquer that star. It looks like we might need to cooperate with someone from a major power when necessary.” Childe Yunyou is already thinking about the rest.

In his opinion, capturing Li Qing should be considered a matter of certainty, and it was basically impossible for him to escape. With so many Void Realm experts, each of them had a higher cultivation than Li Qing, how could they possibly miss?

A few days later, everyone was almost ready. Childe Yunyou said, “Let’s go into the ancient ruins and explore them today, so that we can dig out some ancient ruins.”

Everyone nodded their heads and quickly followed the huge pit into the ancient ruins. This was the first time Childe Yunyou came to this place. He felt the ancient and desolate aura of this place. He couldn’t help but sigh, “The treasures left behind by Ancient Desolate Lord can still be preserved intact after so many years. They have not been destroyed in front of the river of time!”

“I wonder what kind of strength that Ancient Desolate Lord is! Just a single treasure left behind will make it impossible for a Dao Realm expert to break through!”

“In my opinion, he is definitely a super expert above the Seven Tribulations of the Dao Realm! It is truly an honor for such a powerful figure to be born on our planet.”

“Rumor has it that in the distant Great Thousand Worlds, there won’t be many people above the Seven Tribulations of the Dao Realm, right? I don’t think our star’s strength is necessarily weaker than the Great Thousand Worlds!” One of the Void Realm experts said.

“If we can reach the Great Thousand Worlds as well, we will definitely be able to break through the heavens!”

Hearing this, Li Qing couldn’t help but laugh secretly. It could only be said that the frog at the bottom of the well could not see the sky outside. They would never imagine that in the history of the Great Thousand Worlds, there were a total of nine Supreme Nine Tribulations!

Moreover, Ancient Desolate Lord was not a character on this planet at all. Instead, he came from the Great Thousand Worlds. Just staying here for a moment was mistaken by them for growing up locally.

The martial arts civilization on this planet could be considered extremely powerful. In the universe, it could be considered second to none. There were a total of six Dao Realm experts.

However, compared to the Great Thousand Worlds, it was still too far off.

“Fellow Daoist Li Qing, what do you think of this? Is our Starry World’s overall strength strong? How does it compare to the Great Thousand Worlds?” Childe Yunyou said intentionally or unintentionally.

“Compared to the Great Thousand Worlds, there should still be a big gap.” Li Qing said casually.

“There’s still a big gap? Are you kidding me? We already have six Dao Realm experts. If the gap is that big, wouldn’t it mean that there are more than ten Dao Realm experts in the Great Thousand Worlds? I don’t believe it!” Patriarch Jinluo scoffed.

A thoughtful expression appeared in Childe Yunyou’s eyes. He was originally an extremely intelligent person, and he was good at getting information from the words spoken by others.

Li Qing’s reply just now surprised him.

This answer seemed to be somewhat casual, but it contained an extremely firm meaning. It was as if it was the truth, and he casually said it out loud.

Could it be that Li Qing had been to the Great Thousand Worlds before?

This made Childe Yunyou uncertain in his heart. This Li Qing’s background seemed to be somewhat extraordinary. However, he wasn’t too worried. After all, this was their home ground now. Li Qing basically couldn’t escape from their hands. No matter what origin it was, it was good to control him first.

Their group of five Void Realm experts walked through the passageway of the ancient ruins. As for Liu Ke’er and Xiao Bai, they were put into the Yin Yang Chaos Bottle by Li Qing. After all, this place was too dangerous.

Childe Yunyou casually smashed his palm against the wall of the passageway, only to discover that the wall was actually motionless. His expression immediately changed, “What a hard wall!”

“Rumor has it that these stones are black iron from the depths of the universe dug up by Ancient Desolate Lord! Only after some of the stars are completely extinguished will such hard iron stones be produced at the core of these stones due to strong pressure!”

‘”The Star Black Iron is extremely hard. Even a Void Realm expert’s attack is unable to cause any damage. Only a continuous attack for a long time can shatter it. Perhaps there is a divine weapon that can do it. If we are bare-handed, we should not think too much about it for the time being.”

Childe Yunyou smiled and said, “No wonder tens of thousands of years ago, after that ancient ruin was emptied, someone dug up the black metal of the stars. Such a hard stone is definitely the best material for forging defense!”

As they spoke, they walked deeper into the passageway. Not long after, he encountered the fork path. At this moment, it had already been broken through by someone, allowing it to be unobstructed.

“Those people aren’t slow. They cleared the first fork so quickly. Let’s go in and try our luck.”

Ancient Desolate Ruins were like labyrinths, crisscrossing and intersecting with countless paths. After walking for a while, they encountered a second fork. The formation inside had not been broken yet.

“We might as well attack here,” Childe Yunyou said. “There will definitely be Ancient Desolate Organ inside. If we break it, we can get some benefits.”

Everyone nodded their heads and looked at the shadows of some mechanical objects in the depths of the formation. A trace of greed appeared in their eyes.

“Looking at that shape, it faintly resembles a black light tower. May I know what Childe Yunyou has to do with it?”

“Fortunately, I was prepared.” Childe Yunyou smiled confidently. “This black light tower can lock onto enemies and launch three black light strikes. It is almost impossible to dodge. However, it has one drawback, that is, it is unable to identify specific targets and can be easily deceived!”

After saying that, Childe Yunyou took out dozens of small animals and placed them in front of him. He said, “With these small animals, we can defend against at least ten rounds of attacks. If we don’t break through the formation during this period of time, we will have to retreat temporarily.”

“Childe Yunyou is indeed thoughtful. Under your leadership, we will definitely reap generous harvests and reduce casualties!” Everyone praised.

Following Childe Yunyou’s order, everyone launched an attack and attacked the spell formation inside the fork.

In the next moment, a dangerous aura came from inside, and three black pillars of light shot out from inside, hitting the three animals at the front.

Li Qing saw this scene and knew that the Black Light Tower’s weapon of war had been cracked by them. It had to be said that these dead creatures did not have intelligence in the end, so they were easily toyed with by intelligent humans.

Of course, if there were humans guarding the black light tower, they could launch attacks on specific targets, so they could not be easily fooled.

With these small attacks blocking the calamity in front of them, the process of attacking the formation was indeed extremely smooth. They successfully broke through the defense of this passageway and saw the black light tower inside.

This black light tower was very small. It was only several zhang tall. On top of the tower was a black ball. At this moment, energy was slowly gathering and preparing to attack the enemy.

The storage time of this war weapon was very long. It would take about fifteen minutes to launch a round of attacks, so they had more than enough time.

Childe Yunyou took the lead and immediately took action to dismantle the black light tower. The black light inside immediately disappeared and completely turned into a dead object.

“I got it!” A trace of joy appeared on Childe Yunyou’s face. He immediately put it into his interspatial ring. Then, he remembered the people around him and hurriedly said, “I don’t want to have a treasure for myself. However, I only have one now. I’ll take care of it for the time being. In the future, as we continue to work together, everyone will benefit. I will definitely not treat everyone wrongly.”

Only then did everyone’s expressions ease slightly. They all said, “What Childe Yunyou said is true. We are not in a hurry to get the treasure yet. We can talk about it when we accumulate enough in the future.”

Seeing Childe Yunyou’s performance just now, Li Qing could be considered to have a better understanding of this person’s character. This fellow was definitely not as generous as he appeared. He was extremely scheming, and he was definitely not someone that could be trusted.
