“After fighting for so long, I’ve finally reached the core area. I want to see where that little thief Li Qing is fleeing to this time!” Patriarch Tianyi said fiercely.

Venerable Riyao said indifferently, “This core area is very difficult to fight. Even if we have the experience of the Primordial Ruins, it will not be easy to go there. However, it is only a matter of time before we overcome this obstacle. Sooner or later, we will be able to enter. That kid inside will definitely not be able to escape.”

“In that case, isn’t that guy dead?” Patriarch Tianyi smiled.

“Don’t be careless. That brat might use some method to escape. When the time comes, you have to defend yourself more tightly. Don’t let him take advantage of you.” Venerable Riyao said.

‘”Don’t worry, Supreme Elder. No matter how outstanding that brat’s methods are, it’s impossible for him to conceal the ears and eyes of so many Void Realm experts from us. Not to mention that there are Dao Realm experts here. His divine sense is constantly scanning them.” Patriarch Tianyi said confidently.

“With his strength alone, even if he relies on the Ancient Desolate Ruins, how can he be the opponent of our entire planet? This person is overestimating himself!” Venerable Riyao chuckled.

In the following period of time, all the major powers had arrived in front of this core area. A total of six Dao Realm experts looked at the war fortresses in front of them with solemn expressions.

“According to the experience passed down tens of thousands of years ago, if we want to rely on our own strength, it is very difficult for us to withstand so many weapons of war at the same time. Therefore, we cannot fight on our own. We have to work together!” Daoist Riyao said.

“Then let’s follow the experience of our predecessors. Let’s all join hands and set up the River-Sea Diversion Array. We can remove most of the physical attacks and reduce the casualties.”

“Tens of thousands of years ago, it was someone who created this River-Sea Diversion Array that completely broke through the Primordial Ruins. With such methods, how could they not use them?”

…

Li Qing stood inside the Primordial Ruins and saw that the so-called River-Sea Diversion Formation set up by the people outside seemed to have transformed into a vast ocean. It could divide all attacks into wisps of smaller energy. This way, it would be easier for everyone to bear it head-on.

They quickly launched the first wave of attacks, causing the war fortresses at the core of the Primordial Ruins to instantly activate. One after another, war weapons lit up, and they began to accumulate energy.

The Ancient Desolate Ruins were constantly recharged with energy. After so many tens of thousands of years, the energy accumulated in the war fortress had surged to an extremely frightening degree. It was practically endless. There was no need for humans to replenish their energy anymore.

Boom!

An intense rumble rang out. Everyone outside could only feel the heavens and earth trembling violently, and they could no longer hear any sound in their ears.

Heaven and earth collapsed, like the scene of the end of the world.

Countless terrifying attacks, such as the Ancient Desolate Cannons, the Black Light Attacks, the Endless Star Spear, the Void Storm, and so on, swept over and drowned the River and Sea Diversion Formation.

If the formation they had set up was a vast ocean, then the attack from the war fortresses was an endless ocean of energy.

The two oceans collided, releasing intense friction, filled with resplendent light, gunfire smoke, explosive dust, and so on. Then, they were diverted by the waves of the river and sea, dissolving the energy into intangibles.

This collision lasted for an unknown amount of time before it slowly subsided. Li Qing looked carefully and saw that the other party’s River-Sea Diversion Array was still standing there, and it was not broken.

Of course, there must have been a lot of damage, and some Void Realm experts were also killed by the overflowing energy.

“Although we have suffered some damage, we have managed to endure it. This time, we are confident of victory!” Venerable Riyao nodded in satisfaction.

“At the core of the Primordial Ruins, it is impossible for weapons of war to continuously attack. We have to wait for a period of time to cool down. Now is the time for us to destroy it!” The eyes of the other Dao Realm experts lit up.

Six Dao Realm experts, together with dozens of Void Realm experts who were intact, launched a fierce attack on the ancient ruins.

However, due to the formidable array protection, it was not that easy to destroy. They fought for several hours, but the results were negligible.

However, the crowd did not show the slightest bit of discouragement. Being able to cause certain damage to the ancient ruins could already be considered a good result. As long as we follow these steps, we will definitely be able to break it after spending ten years or even several decades.

Li Qing watched as these people continued to destroy the ancient ruins. War weapons had to wait for a day before they could activate again, so he could only let them move at will.

However, the problem was that war weapons could not be activated continuously. Only when the Primordial Ruins were unmanned would they be executed to this extent.

Now that Li Qing had entered, he could preside over the attacks of weapons of war. This rule would no longer be applicable.

The reason why war weapons could not be activated continuously was mainly because they had not yet cooled down and were in an extremely high temperature state. If they were to be activated forcefully, it might damage the main body of war weapons and lead to their destruction.

However, Li Qing did not care whether these weapons of war would be damaged or not. He only needed to make the most of these conditions to inflict serious damage on the enemy!

Therefore, he planned to immediately activate his weapons of war and launch a sneak attack while these people weren’t paying attention. They should be able to kill a large number of enemies!

However, the problem was that once Li Qing did so, most of the war weapons in this core region would be damaged by the high temperature. At that time, Li Qing would lose his greatest reliance.

If the expected results were not achieved and most of the people still survived, then Li Qing would definitely be the one to die.

“After launching a sneak attack on them, how can we escape and minimize the risk?” Li Qing pondered in his heart.

He took out the crystal ball. If it wasn’t for the sealing of the void, he could have directly communicated with the Primordial Warship and left.

“If I can break through the void seal, won’t I be able to leave through the void?”

“Originally, I didn’t have any good methods to deal with this, but now that there are so many weapons of war here, it’s not impossible for me to break the void seal.”

“Moreover, there is a type of weapon called the Space Splitting Platform. It can trigger the Void Storm and greatly damage the Void Sealing. If I can detonate so many Space Splitting Platforms at the same time, I should have a high chance of escaping from the Heavens.”

Li Qing looked at the enemies outside. At this moment, all of them had relaxed expressions and didn’t notice anything. Almost no one thought that these weapons of war would activate again.

As long as Li Qing took advantage of this opportunity to launch a sneak attack, he would definitely be able to inflict large-scale casualties and severely injure the enemy!

Thinking of this, he made up his mind to immediately gather the majority of the Void Splitting Platforms in one place and detonate them at any time to break the void seal.

On the other hand, he had secretly activated countless weapons of war, secretly accumulating strength, aiming at the enemy outside.

The Reverend Red Dust’s divine sense outside was exceptionally powerful. He seemed to have faintly sensed it. He couldn’t help but condense his gaze. Looking carefully, he saw that energy was already spilling out from the endless weapons of war ahead, emitting an extremely terrifying aura.

“Not good, dangerous! Everyone, quickly retreat!” Venerable Red Dust screamed.

Everyone came back to their senses. Even though they did not quite understand what was going on, they still obeyed Venerable Red Dust’s orders and immediately fled outside.

The remaining six Dao Realm experts joined hands in a short period of time to set up a powerful defensive barrier.

By the time they made these preparations, the group of war weapons in front of them had already been activated successfully. Terrifying attacks descended one after another.

After Li Qing finished these things, he did not check the results. The place was already drowned by endless energy, and his divine sense was unable to detect it.

He immediately detonated the thousands of Void Splitting Platforms, causing an incomparably terrifying void storm to erupt, sweeping across the entire Primordial Ruins, instantly creating an incomparably pitch black void passageway.

Relying on this void passageway, Li Qing immediately took out the crystal ball and communicated with the Primordial Era’s Warship. Soon, he disappeared from the Primordial Era’s Remnants.

…

The tragic outcome of the battle at the Ancient Desolate Ruins instantly shocked the entire planet. One of the Dao Realm experts had died, and more than half of the Void Realm experts had died as well. However, in the end, they were unable to obtain the treasure. This was simply a loss to Grandma’s family!

In particular, the fall of a Dao Realm expert was simply an earth-shattering event. There were only a few Dao Realm experts on this side of the planet, and killing any of them would be an unimaginable loss.

The Dao Realm expert who died happened to be the Supreme Elder of the Northern Prison Sect, Dao Sovereign Riyao!

Coupled with the fact that one of the Northern Prison Sect’s Dao Weapons, the Northern Prison Chains, had been cut off, it made things even worse, causing this once incomparably glorious sect to rapidly decline.

As for that murderer, Li Qing, he has not been caught yet, and he has run away somewhere. I heard that this person is not in the Ancient Desolate Ruins. He must have used some sort of method to escape through the void.

All the forces in the entire planet were chasing after this terrifying and dangerous figure. Li Qing had become a public enemy of the whole people. If he appeared, he would definitely be chased by everyone in the world.

At this moment, Li Qing’s appearance had changed. He appeared in another part of the star. As long as it wasn’t a Void Realm expert standing in front of him, he wouldn’t be able to recognize his identity.

The reason why he had come to this place was naturally to take out the last desolate ancient treasure. This ancient treasure was hidden on an island in the depths of the sea. Naturally, such a remote location was not so easy to discover, but Li Qing wanted to take it out much more easily.

The island was desolate and uninhabited, only lush trees covered the place. After Li Qing arrived, he relied on the crystal ball in his hand to guide the way. In less than half an hour, he found the location of the ancient ruins.

A day later, Li Qing flew off the island, communicated with the crystal ball, and returned to the Primordial Warship.

“Little friend Li Qing, how is it? Have you obtained the Ancient Desolate Treasure?” Ancient Desolate Lord asked.

“I’ve obtained two treasures.” Li Qing said.

“Why are there only two? Didn’t I say there are three?”

“Someone else has already taken it away!” Li Qing said unhappily.

“Impossible. How could the defensive measures set up by me, Ancient Desolate Lord, be so easily unlocked?” Ancient Desolate Lord said in shock.

‘”That’s the truth. It’s not just that treasure. Even the second treasure was almost broken. Fortunately, I went early. Otherwise, I could only watch with my eyes wide open!”

“Uh … Maybe it’s because time has passed too long. The array formation in the ancient ruins is inevitably a little loose, haha.” Ancient Desolate Lord laughed awkwardly.

“This time, it’s really extremely dangerous. I was blocked by those people to the Ancient Desolate Ruins. If it weren’t for the explosion of thousands of Void Splitting Terraces at the last moment, I’m afraid I would have fallen there this time.” Li Qing said.

“In order to collect the treasure, it is worth the risk. You are a lucky man. I believe you will not die so easily.” Said Ancient Desolate Lord.

“Those treasures of yours aren’t that valuable. They’re just weapons of war worth a little bit of money.”

‘”What are you talking about? The war weapon I left behind is the capital that fought for hegemony in the past. As long as any power gets it, they can become the top power in the world! How dare you look down on me?” Ancient Desolate Lord’s eyes widened.

“I’m not a big power. What’s the use of these things for me?” Li Qing sneered, “To take such a big risk and end up with such a pile of useless things, alas …”

“Kid, don’t be unsatisfied. I don’t want to give it to you for nothing!” Ancient Desolate Lord said sullenly.

“However, this time, it’s not like there’s no harvest at all!” Li Qing smiled faintly. “There’s actually a Demon God level inner core in your third treasure trove. This is a pleasant surprise!”
