Li Qing vaguely felt that these people had to invite him to join their team. Perhaps they really had some hidden secret.

However, he was courageous and didn’t need to worry too much. Even if these people added together, they weren’t his match. What was there to be afraid of?

After clearing this fork and obtaining the Black Light Tower, they did not rashly advance in qinggong, but retreated. Their conduct was rather steady.

Just as they were retreating, a huge pressure suddenly came from above. Immediately afterwards, a figure descended from above, carrying endless waves of terrifying Dao charm, illuminating the dark ancient ruins.

“A Dao Realm expert! I wonder which senior has arrived!” Everyone’s faces were filled with horror.

‘”It’s still so early now, and a Dao Realm expert has already arrived. It seems that they attach great importance to this matter. Perhaps the various major powers will unite even earlier!” Said Childe Yunyou.

In a short moment, that Dao Realm expert arrived in front of everyone. They quickly recognized him as Venerable Red Dust from the Wei Yang Palace!

Venerable Red Dust came to the front of the crowd and said indifferently, “Looks like you guys have gained something. Take it out and show it to me.”

Childe Yunyou’s expression changed, and then his face was filled with smiles. “We were just lucky to get a black light pagoda and not enter the eyes of the Venerable One!”

After saying that, he offered the black light tower with both hands.

Venerable Red Dust casually glanced at the black light tower and said, “These mechanisms are still the same as the ruins from tens of thousands of years ago. As a result, there will be traces to follow. This time, the speed of destroying the ancient ruins will greatly increase.”

Then, he walked past the crowd, and his voice came from afar, “Put away that black light tower. Judging from your appearance, do you think I would covet this little thing?”

Only after Venerable Red Dust left did everyone wipe the cold sweat off their foreheads as if they had been granted an amnesty.

“Rumor has it that Venerable Red-Dust likes to seal his memories and then become an ordinary person. After entering the mortal world, he has experienced all sorts of love, hatred, and enmity. Now, it seems that his personality has faintly split.”

“Keep your voice down, Sovereign, how can you speak rashly?” Childe Yunyou hurriedly said.

“However, I’m sure that after so much tempering of love and hatred in the mortal world, the Venerable One’s soul must be extremely powerful. His spiritual sense is exceptionally outstanding. In terms of the Primordial Spirit Dao, he can be said to be the number one person in our world of stars.”

“No wonder it gave us so much mental pressure. Just standing there made us unable to breathe.” Said Patriarch Jinluo.

“If we could cultivate to the Dao Realm and become supreme supreme experts, how impressive would that be!” Daoist Qinghui sighed.

Li Qing couldn’t help but shake his head and laugh. People’s desires were never satisfied. Xiantian experts yearned to become Void Realm experts who were high above, and Void Realm experts yearned to become Void Realm experts who were high above Dao Realm experts…

“Let’s go. We’re lucky this time. Venerable Red Dust is very magnanimous. He didn’t take away my Black Light Tower. It’s finally not in vain.” Childe Yunyou hurriedly left with everyone.

A few days later, they entered the Ancient Desolate Ruins again and continued to search for opportunities to seize the Ancient Desolate Organ.

However, this time, they encountered an accident. In the process of opening the formation, there was not only one ancient desolate mechanism, but two!

They had originally thought that there was a Space Splitting Platform inside that could trigger a Void Storm, but they didn’t expect that apart from this Space Splitting Platform, there was also a Star Spear Launcher!

Endless arrows of star spears shot out from within, piercing through Adept Tugg’s body. Without even letting out a single miserable scream, he was instantly blasted into a ball of blood mist.

The mechanisms that Ancient Desolate Lord had set up were all based on the strength of the Dao Realm. Void Realm experts were rarely able to withstand them, so they could only dodge.

Once hit, that basically meant death.

When such an accident happened, they immediately flew out with Adept Tuge’s primordial spirit, causing the surrounding crowd to gloat. All of them mocked them for overestimating themselves and entering dangerous areas to explore.

“I made a mistake this time. I didn’t investigate the dangers inside and didn’t take proper precautions!” Childe Yunyou sighed.

“Sigh, this is also the time and fate. It’s already a blessing for me to have a primordial spirit survive.” Adept Tuge’s face was ashen.

“Don’t worry, Daoist Tuge, we will definitely let you find a good body and successfully seize it! I’m sure you will recover very soon.” Childe Yunyou looked as if he was righteous as a cloudy sky.

“Then I’ll thank Childe Yunyou first!” Adept Tuge said gratefully.

Li Qing did not participate in the process of seizing the house. After all, he was not familiar with them, so he had no obligation to help them.

In short, after a few days, Adept Tuge’s primordial spirit had disappeared, and it was unknown to which unlucky person he had seized it from.

Li Qing had never seen Daoist Tuge’s new body.

“Now that we’re missing a hand, the speed at which we can break the formation is much slower,” said Childe Yunyou. “We have to find another one.”

“I’ll leave this matter to Childe Yunyou. I’m sure you have a lot of friends, so you should be able to find someone you can trust.” Everyone said.

After a period of time, a new Void Realm expert joined their ranks. This person was named Patriarch Yanqiu, a female Void Realm expert. She was extremely beautiful.

Everyone’s eyes lit up when they saw Patriarch Yanqiu. This woman was a famous female cultivator on this side of the star, and she was sought after by everyone because of her extremely beautiful appearance.

After all, it was not an easy task for Void Realm experts to find a suitable Dao companion.

The other reason why Patriarch Yanqiu was so famous was because she had an indescribable past with the Young Sect Master of the Northern Prison Sect. The two of them seemed to have once been lovers, but they were separated because of some conflict.

“Patriarch Yanqiu, after so many years, are you still alone? Are you interested in finding another dual cultivation partner?” Patriarch Jinluo chuckled.

Patriarch Yanqiu rolled his eyes and smiled. “I like handsome young men, but I don’t like old men like you. For example, that little fellow is very much to my liking.”

Everyone looked at her fingers. Seeing that Patriarch Yanqiu was referring to Li Qing, they couldn’t help but feel a little jealous.

“What a pity, Fellow Daoist Li Qing already has a wife. I’m afraid your idea will be in vain.” Patriarch Jinluo sneered.

Childe Yunyou smiled and said, “Don’t talk about these topics at this critical time. We should be ready to explore them at any time.”

A few days later, they made all sorts of preparations and arrived in front of the ancient ruins. Right at this moment, a huge building ship suddenly descended from the sky. There was a flag on the ship that read “Northern Prison”, and it was filled with a strong aura.

“It’s from the Northern Prison Sect!” Everyone’s eyes narrowed.

“Patriarch Yanqiu, maybe your little lover has also come.” Patriarch Jinluo teased.

Patriarch Yanqiu said expressionlessly, “What does that guy have to do with me?”

As soon as he finished speaking, a streak of light flew out of the ship and flew towards him.

When everyone saw that person’s face, they recognized his identity. He was the young sect master of the Northern Prison Sect back then. Now, after so many years, he was already the sect master of the Northern Prison Sect, Patriarch Tianyi.

Patriarch Tianyi came to Patriarch Yanqiu and said, “Yan Qiu, we meet again. Are you interested in exploring this ancient ruin together?”

“No! I’ve already found the team!” Said Patriarch Yanqiu.

Patriarch Tianyi did not force anything. He nodded and said, “Alright, if you encounter any problems, you can come to me at any time!”

After saying that, he immediately flew away without the slightest hesitation.

Patriarch Jinluo chuckled and said, “Looks like the two of you still have some love left.”

Patriarch Yanqiu expressionlessly said, “What’s the use of a Void Realm expert wanting this feeling? It’s better to live a happy life and live a carefree life!”

“Let’s go,” said Childe Yunyou. “Let’s go in now.”

This time, the number of people in the Ancient Desolate Ruins seemed to be much sparser. Obviously, as the passageway continued to be opened, the area became larger and larger, and many Void Realm experts dispersed very widely, no longer all gathered together.

After they entered, they saw hundreds of crisscrossed tunnels, like a bottomless maze, seemingly wanting to devour people.

These hundreds of crisscrossed passageways were actually only one percent of the outer region of the Primordial Ruins, and there were even more dangers inside!

No wonder the Ancient Desolate Emperor was so confident back then. He was absolutely foolproof. It would take generations to completely unlock the Ancient Desolate Ruins with all the strength of the entire planet. This was evident from this.

They came to a deserted corner and stopped. “This is the place,” said Childe Yunyou. “Let’s open this passageway and seize the Ancient Desolate Mechanism inside.”

Everyone nodded their heads. Next, they all knew what to do. The cooperation of their actions was quite tacit. Without any casualties, they obtained the treasures inside.

Childe Yunyou said: “With the experience of our predecessors, it is much easier for us to crack it now. I’m sure that this time, there won’t be countless casualties like tens of thousands of years ago.”

Patriarch Jinluo smiled and said, “Last time, you already got a black light tower. This time, the Void Splitting Platform should belong to me.”

‘”Originally, I wanted to get more treasures and distribute them uniformly, but I didn’t expect that you would be unable to wait any longer. Since that’s the case, this Void Splitting Platform will belong to you.” Childe Yunyou nodded.

Patriarch Jinluo put away the platform and said, “Since we have already gained something, I wonder if we should continue forward or return to rest.”

“Of course we should be more conservative. We can’t rashly advance in qinggong. Let’s go back first.” Said Childe Yunyou.

Li Qing said, “Then you guys go back first. I still need to go inside to take a look.”

“Oh? Li Qing, what are you going in for? Are you going to abandon us and work alone?” Childe Yunyou narrowed his eyes and exchanged glances with Daoist Patriarch Jinluo and Daoist Qinghui. There was a peculiar expression on his face.
