The Thunder God Novel - Chapter 296
Chapter 296 Ruins (2)
Lei Xingfeng looked around. Apart from this exquisite jade bamboo pavilion, it was surrounded by water. The water was crystal clear, and one could see that the fish swimming in the water were all several feet long. In the middle of the pavilion was a small round table, and there was nothing else.
“Can you fly?” Asked Lei Xingfeng.
Wu Yang smiled and said, “Of course not. Flight is absolutely forbidden here. Once it leaves the ground, it will immediately be suppressed. Haha.”
Lei Xingfeng looked at the house not far away and said, “Can I wade through the water?”
Wu Yang smiled and said, “No way. If you go into the water, you will sink. You won’t be able to take a single step forward. Haha.”
Feng Chenzong couldn’t help but ask, “Then how do we get there?”
Lei Xingfeng looked at the round table in the bamboo pavilion. He thoughtfully pressed down on the round table and tested it. He then turned the table around and a small bridge made of green bamboo rose from the bottom of the water. He smiled and said, “Interesting.” He did not expect that a single spin of the round table would lead to such a result.
Wu Yang’s eyes revealed a hint of surprise. He said, “Not bad, not bad. I found the key point in a flash.”
Lei Xingfeng smiled and said, “It’s just a coincidence.” Thinking about the so-called mechanism changes in his previous life, he would give it a try. He never thought that it would be right.
Wu Yang said, “This pavilion was difficult for many people back then. No matter what, it can’t pass.”
Lei Xingfeng said, “There shouldn’t be anything in here anymore.”
Wu Yang said, “That’s for sure. I wonder how many people have been here before. It’s definitely cleaner than your home. Haha.”
Lei Xingfeng muttered, “My house is cleaned every day. How can it be dirty?”
The four of them followed the bamboo bridge across the pond. Lei Xingfeng smiled and said, “Actually, if I were to use a boat, I would be able to get there.”
Wu Yang was stunned. He suddenly patted his head and said, “Yes, I can definitely use a boat to get there. Unfortunately, it’s a pity!”
Inside the bamboo forest was a courtyard surrounded by a pool of water, It wasn’t that big. After entering the house three times, the room was empty. Everything inside was taken away. Moreover, the cleanliness of the room made Lei Xingfeng unbelievable. Even if he cleaned it every day, it wasn’t that clean. He reached out and touched a corner. There wasn’t any dust on his hand.
Wu Yang said, “Don’t touch it. There seems to be a self-cleaning method here. There won’t be a speck of dust. However, none of us know about this method.”
Lei Xingfeng sighed with emotion, “It’s really advanced. It’s amazing!”
Niao Bude stretched out his head and said, “What are you calling me for?”
Lei Xingfeng couldn’t help but smile bitterly. He couldn’t say anything now. As long as he said it, the black bird would come up and say, “It’s none of your business. Continue sleeping!”
The Black Bird was now completely suppressed by Lei Xingfeng. It said helplessly, “Bullying the Bird again!” Then he hid his head in his wings.
Feng Chenzong was puzzled, “Since there’s nothing here, why did you come in?”
Wu Yang said, “We must enter. If we want to enter the outer circle of the forbidden area, we must pass through this small courtyard. There is a teleportation stone platform here. Only through this stone platform can we truly come into contact with the forbidden area.”
Lei Xingfeng suddenly said, “No wonder you want to come in. Haha, I also feel strange. This place should have been swept many times. Why are you still here? So there is a teleportation stone platform here.”
Follow the road to the center of the courtyard. It was a white stone platform. It was very eye-catching. It was a foot above the ground. It was shaped like a pentagram. There were grooves on each of its five corners. One could tell at a glance that it could be embedded with sealing rings.
Sure enough, Wu Yang took out five sealing rings and said, “Everyone stand up, I’ll activate it.” He inserted the ring into the groove on the white stone platform.
Lei Xingfeng asked curiously, “Do you also use sealing rings here?”
Wu Yang said, “Of course. Otherwise, what do you think you’re going to use? Feng, we have a lot of cultivation techniques that we obtained from the forbidden area.”
“Well, then,” said Lei Xingfeng, “we’re from the same lineage?”
Wu Yang said, “It shouldn’t be, but our cultivation is inextricably linked to the forbidden area.”
The white stone platform suddenly glowed with light. In an instant, the surrounding environment changed. Because it was a very short distance teleportation, it was extremely fast. The teleportation speed was almost less than a second. If the surrounding scenery hadn’t changed, there wouldn’t have been any feeling at all.
When they arrived, they saw the traces left behind by the battle. Countless houses collapsed, and the ground was in a mess.
Lei Xingfeng said, “Is it left behind from the ancient times? Or is it left behind from the battles between humans today?”
Wu Yang said, “Of course it was left behind from the ancient times. Our strength is very difficult to destroy every single plant and tree here. I wonder what methods they used to protect us. It’s simply unfathomable.”
Lei Xingfeng said, “Celestial Monarchs can’t be destroyed?”
Wu Yang said, “If I make a move, I can barely break it. It’s only a small possibility if I make a move against something. The forbidden area is still a mystery to us, and we can’t solve it for the time being.”
Lei Xingfeng couldn’t help but be shocked. With Wu Yang’s strength, it was unbelievable that he could barely break through the defenses here. One had to know that Wu Yang’s strength was definitely at the peak.
Wu Yang said, “This is a house. It covers an area of several hundred acres. There are people who have found many good things here. However, this place is a mess. There is no time to search carefully. This is already the outer circle of the Forbidden Land of Flowers. There are some good things that are not surprising at all. It depends on your luck.”
It could be seen that the buildings here were once very tall. After collapsing, they were as tall as small hills. It was indeed very difficult to find something useful. Moreover, the remnants on the surface had long been picked up by people. If they wanted to find something useful, they would have to dig out the ruins.
Lei Xingfeng examined it carefully and felt a little disappointed. For the time being, he could not see any signs. He smiled bitterly and said, “Grandmaster, let’s come here to search for it. Let’s go somewhere else first. How about it?”
Wu Yang also knew that everyone would not search quietly. After thinking for a moment, he said, “It’s fine to go, but everyone be careful. Especially Feng, your strength is in the forbidden area. If you don’t have someone with you, it’s almost impossible for you to walk a single step. You might die inside, so follow me closely!”
After crossing the ruins and heading inside, Lei Xingfeng’s heart trembled.
Countless traces were left on the ground, and it was unknown what caused them. They were crisscrossed and crisscrossed, as if they were ravaging a large piece of tofu with their claws. Lei Xingfeng said, “The battle should be very intense. It seems that there are still many bones … Well, there should be many people dead here.”
Wu Yang said, “That’s right. Actually, this place is worth searching. Back then, someone picked up quite a few good things here. Unfortunately, it has been too long. Many things have rotted away.”
Lei Xingfeng said, “Is it because there is no protection?”
Wu Yang said, “That’s right. When you came, the bamboo pavilion and the house you saw were all protected. After countless years, not only were they intact, they were also spotless. Haha.”
Lei Xingfeng had already seen some light coming out, but he didn’t have time to look at it. He said, “Alright, when we come back, we’ll search again. Since we’re here, we can’t go back empty-handed.”
“Of course,” said Feng Chenzong. “You’ve gathered everything. I haven’t got anything yet.”
Lei Xingfeng said, “What did I collect … Uh, the jade bamboo is not a cultivation material, that’s nothing.”
“Then even if you don’t return empty-handed,” said Feng Chenzong.
Lei Xingfeng smiled and said, “Little Martial Uncle, I’m afraid you haven’t found many things. Hehe.”
Feng Chenzong also smiled and said, “Alright, let’s see who gets the most out of us this time!”
Wu Yang smiled and said, “Little Feng Feng, I’m not the one who hit you. If you want to fight for this, you’ll probably lose most of the time. Hehe, I can’t even find a reason for you to win, haha.” He said with a bit of schadenfreude.
Gu Qi couldn’t help but laugh and said, “Well, I’m not optimistic about you either.”
Feng Chenzong shouted angrily, “Hey, I’m not that bad, am I?”
Wu Yang and Gu Qi nodded at the same time and said, “Yes!”
Lei Xingfeng immediately burst into laughter. He said, “Little Martial Uncle, what are you doing compared to this? Haha.”
Feng Chenzong raised his hand and said, “Alright, I’ll admit that it’s worse than A-Feng, hehe.”
Wu Yang suddenly leaned his ear and listened. He reached out to stop everyone from speaking. Immediately after, his expression changed slightly and he said, “Bring Ah Feng along, quickly!” As he said that, Gu Qi grabbed Lei Xingfeng and flew out. Feng Chenzong was stunned for a moment and hurriedly followed him. He had already drawn a distance of several dozen meters.
The three of them charged forward like lightning. In a few minutes, a wall appeared in front of them.
Wu Yang turned around slightly and flew along the wall. Gu Qi and Feng Chenzong followed closely behind him. Only at this moment did Lei Xingfeng realize the difference between him and Gu Qi. Even if he brought him along, his speed was much faster than his own. Moreover, he also heard bursts of explosions. That was the sound of battle.
Two minutes later, Wu Yang saw a door. He quickly turned around, one foot fiercely kicking the ground, making a sound of wiping the glass. Then, he rushed into the door.
A few breaths later, Gu Qi and Lei Xingfeng also rushed through the door, followed closely by Feng Chenzong.
Lei Xingfeng’s first impression was that when he saw Martial Uncle Lazi flying backwards and a person rushing out, his posture was definitely to kill Martial Uncle Lazi.
Gu Qi shouted, “Be careful!”
Immediately after, Lei Xingfeng saw the person flying out. When he saw the person’s face clearly, he couldn’t help but shiver. This was not a human head at all, but the head of an animal. However, his body was the same as a human’s.
Wu Yang’s speed was extremely fast. He shouted, “Get out of the way!”
Lazi barely dodged to the side and gave way. The noon sun appeared in an instant, and that person also pounced in front of him.
