Chapter 519 On the Divine Island
Upon seeing Bai Xinglu's challenge, Li Lan showed no fear whatsoever; he was ready to accept the challenge.
But at that moment, the old man suddenly spoke:
"Xinglu, Li Lan and the others have just arrived here. They must be quite tired after their long journey. Why don't we let them rest for a while?"
"Moreover, you are going to join forces to fight the enemy in those ancient ruins, so don't ruin your relationship because of impatience."
Bai Xinglu showed great respect to the old man. After hearing what the old man said, Bai Xinglu did not object and nodded slightly.
Then, she looked at Li Lan again and said earnestly:
"Li Lan, you are very capable. I acknowledge you."
After saying that, Bai Xinglu turned and left, returning to her room.
After Bai Xinglu left, the old man sighed and then said:
"Young friend Li Lan, please don't take offense. Xinglu has always been like this."
"She grew up in my Starry Sky Sect from a young age and has been immersed in cultivation ever since. She knows very little about the world, so please forgive her."
Li Lan smiled and shook her head, saying:
"I am incredibly envious of her attitude towards cultivation, so why would I find it strange?"
At this moment, Li Lan suddenly remembered something. He looked at the old man and hurriedly said:
"Old man, how's the matter with Yi Jun going?"
After their last parting on the Tianyan Continent, Elder Cang returned to the Star Sect with news of Yi Jun.
Now that so much time has passed, I wonder if the Starry Sky Sect has resolved this matter.
Upon hearing this, a look of anger immediately appeared on the old man's face, and he said coldly:
"After I brought the news of Yi Jun's death back to the sect, the elders and sect leader were immediately furious and all wanted to avenge Yi Jun."
"But when we arrived at the Star Devouring Sect of the Great Black Heaven, we found that it had become a heavily guarded sect."
"Even though the sect leader of my Starry Sky Sect possessed the realm of a high god, he still couldn't completely wipe out the Star Devouring Sect."
"Because at some point, that place had been taken under the control of the Great Black Buddha Mother and became her direct sect, which is now heavily guarded."
"Just as we were about to take action, we encountered many of the followers of the Great Black Mother."
“If we continue to entangle ourselves, the Great Black Buddha Mother will definitely go there. At that time, even we will not be able to escape unscathed, so we can only retreat back to the Azure Heaven Realm.”
Upon hearing this, Li Lan was immediately startled.
He never expected that the Star Devouring Sect would change so much after he left, becoming a direct branch of the Great Black Buddha Mother.
In this way, the overall strength of the Star Devouring Sect is probably comparable to that of the hidden sects in the Great Black Heaven.
"Is it the Great Black Buddha Mother again?"
Li Lan narrowed his eyes slightly. He had faced the Great Black Buddha Mother before and knew her terrifying strength.
However, he believed that when he reached the level of a high god, he would no longer fear the Great Black Buddha Mother.
It seems that now is not the time to avenge Yi Jun.
"I understand. Thank you, Elder Cang, for everything you've done for Yi Jun."
The old man waved his hand and said:
"That's to be expected. After all, Yi Jun was a once-in-a-century genius in our Starry Sky Sect, and everyone in the sect attaches great importance to his safety."
"Although we did not avenge Yi Jun, the Star Devouring Sect has become a puppet of others and will never amount to anything again. This can be considered as getting justice for Yi Jun."
"I should thank you for that, young friend Li Lan."
"If you hadn't secretly intervened back then, the Star Devouring Sect wouldn't be in this state now."
Li Lan nodded slightly, not dwelling on the topic any further.
After asking the old man for more information about the ancient ruins, Li Lan left the old man's room with Su Yao.
The opening of the ancient ruins is drawing ever closer, and countless powerful figures have arrived on the Central Continent.
These people are all the chosen ones from various sects, each with extremely strong strength, far surpassing ordinary quasi-god peak cultivators.
For the past few days, Li Lan has stayed in the hotel without going out, quietly waiting for the ancient ruins to open.
Even though countless people outside were clamoring and pursuing him, Li Lan ignored them and continued to cultivate in seclusion, improving his strength.
During these two days of cultivation, Li Lan felt that his cultivation level was improving more and more.
Even so, he still showed no intention of breaking through.
All the other prodigies participating in the ancient ruins were diligently suppressing their cultivation levels to avoid breaking through before entering the ruins.
But Li Lan was different; he continued to improve his strength, seemingly without any bottlenecks.
Although Li Lan found this somewhat strange, she didn't pay too much attention to it.
Since he can continuously improve his strength, it proves that he has not yet reached the highest realm before the God Realm.
Regardless of what others do, he will cultivate in his own way and will not be influenced by others.
Even in that ancient ruin, Li Lan would still cultivate in the same way, without being in a hurry to break through.
That morning, in the city where Li Lan was located, countless young supreme beings withdrew from their cultivation.
Today is the day the ancient ruins open, and they will soon be taking that space teleportation array to leave this place and head to the depths of the void.
Li Lan also withdrew from cultivation early and went to the space teleportation array with Su Yao, Lin Yue'er, and Bai Xinglu.
The streets were packed with people, filled with young supreme beings from various sects, along with the elders and sect leaders who had come with them.
Walking on the streets, you can see young elites from the top 1,000 list everywhere.
Intense spatial fluctuations came from ahead, indicating that the teleportation array leading to the depths of the void was activating, unleashing a violent roar of the Great Dao.
The entire Celestial Realm was trembling. The great formation seemed extremely powerful, having already connected the entire world.
Boom!
In the endless depths of the void, something seemed to have established a connection with this place, and a deafening roar shook the heavens and the earth.
"The ancient ruins are about to open; I can already feel that vast and ancient aura!"
"Get on the teleportation array quickly, I need to go in!"
Soon, the surrounding crowd surged forward, jostling to get ahead.
At this moment, Bai Xinglu, who was standing beside Li Lan, said coldly:
"It's no use for them to go early; if they're not on the list, there's no way they can get in."
Just then, a commotion seemed to break out in the crowded area ahead.
Someone was shouting, "Why can't they go in?"
Just as Bai Xinglu said, not everyone can enter the teleportation array.
When Li Lan and his group arrived, they saw a number of guards standing in front of the giant spatial teleportation array.
All of these guards were above the Divine Realm, and more than a dozen of them made Li Lan feel a sense of danger.
It is clear that they have reached the level of intermediate gods.
Behind these mid-level divine guardians, on that high platform, sat three even more powerful elders.
Li Lan couldn't sense the aura of these three old men at all; he had only ever seen such a powerful aura from Shen Cang Sheng and the Heavenly Lord of the Three-Eyed Clan.
They must be the strongest here, and renowned figures in the Azure Heaven Realm, high-ranking gods.
With them guarding the area, no one can get away with anything.
After these people appeared, the cultivators who had originally wanted to sneak into the teleportation array immediately lost their minds and obediently retreated to the side.
After Li Lan and his group arrived, the powerful figures guarding the front of the formation immediately recognized them.
Li Lan was already famous throughout the Central Plains, so many people already knew him.
After he appeared, countless eyes turned to him.
Not only him, but Bai Xinglu was also spied on by countless hidden eyes.
After a series of fierce battles, she has risen to the top 100.
Furthermore, with the Starry Sky Sect backing her up, no one dared to provoke her easily.
"Sigh~"
Why is Bai Xinglu walking with Li Lan?
"Isn't Li Lan just a rogue cultivator? How would he know Bai Xinglu?"
"Moreover, Bai Xinglu is extremely arrogant. She doesn't even take those young supreme beings ranked in the top ten seriously. Why would she be willing to accompany Li Lan here now?"
Countless voices of doubt arose around them, unwilling to believe that Bai Xinglu would join forces with Li Lan.
"Brother Li Lan, it seems that even though you've made it into the top ten of the top 100, many people are still questioning your abilities."
Su Yao covered her mouth and chuckled softly.
However, she was very familiar with Li Lan's strength; even a prodigy like Bai Xinglu could not compare to him.
Li Lan said with a faint smile:
"Once we reach that ancient ruin, these doubts will disappear."
After saying that, Li Lan walked straight ahead.
The powerful cultivators at the Divine Realm who were guarding the area did not stop him and allowed him to enter the spatial teleportation array directly.
After arriving here, Li Lan continuously probed the surrounding cultivators with his divine sense.
After some investigation, Li Lan was also slightly surprised.
These people number in the tens of thousands, and most of them have reached the peak of the Quasi-God realm.
There are so many cultivators in the Azure Heaven Realm alone; it seems there are many powerful individuals participating in this competition for the ancient ruins.
At the same time, he also sensed several familiar presences.
Those people were naturally the same few people we had seen during the battle for the secret realm of the Frost Continent, and they were here again.
When Li Lan appeared, they also discovered her presence.
But none of them dared to attack Li Lan, as they were all well aware of Li Lan's strength.
Even if they wanted to fight, they would wait until they entered the ancient ruins before they could make a move.
Su Yao and the others entered the formation smoothly and stood beside Li Lan.
Two hours later, all the cultivators who participated in the ancient ruins had entered the great formation.
Apart from them, the sect elders and sect leaders who came with them did not enter the great formation.
They will also travel to the depths of the void, but they will travel there using a different great formation.
Seeing that everyone had entered the great formation, the three elders on the high platform stood up at the same time.
The old man in the middle looked down, and his weathered voice reached the ears of every cultivator.
"Young talents from all the major sects, now that you have arrived here, it means you are ready to enter that ancient ruin."
"But before that, I have something to tell you."
“Even this teleportation array that we created together cannot directly teleport you to that ancient ruin.”
"Those ranked higher can be teleported to places closer to the ancient ruins, as I believe you already knew before."
