In the small trading yard, every once in a while, a swordsman would walk onto the stone platform, and then he would introduce the spiritual objects in his hand with saliva flying. Everyone wanted to increase the value to the highest level.
Spiritual grass, spiritual mines, spiritual swords, and even martial arts and sword skills. Various treasures emerge one after another. Even Lin Xi couldn't help but smack her tongue. This mysterious wasteland really brings heaven and hell together.
Lin Xi has been sitting quietly in his seat without participating in the bidding. These things are optional for him. There is no need for him to hand over the Juyuan Dan in his pocket because of his momentary curiosity.
On the stone table, Lin Xi was talking to Lang Song and Yan Zhen constantly, and from time to time, he turned his eyes to the stone table, and then took back his eyes with no interest.
Lang Song, Yan Zhen and Lin Xi, has never bid. I think these two people are just here to join in the fun.
"Brother Lin, you should be here for the ancient ruins this time, right?"
At this moment, the sword master on the stone platform auctioned a rare spiritual mine. Yan Zhen turned his head and glanced, then immediately withdrew his gaze and asked Lin Xi.
After hearing Yan Zhen’s question, Lin Xi’s heart moved. He was worried about how to speak about this matter, but the other party raised it first, but this was exactly what Lin Xi thought.
Lin Xi nodded, looked at Lang Song beside him, and then replied with a smile: "That's right, I heard from Su Feng about this matter. I have nothing to do, so I came here to join in the fun."
Upon hearing this, Yan Zhen thought that this was true. The news of the ancient ruins was no longer a secret in this second-level ancient city. However, for such an opportunity place, ordinary swordsmen may just be cannon fodder.
Even with his strength, it may be difficult for him to stand out in the competition for the treasure.
"Brother Lin, I have an offer, I hope you can think about it." Yan Zhen was silent for a while and said.
"Brother Yan, but it's okay."
"Now in this second-level ancient city, the people in the Tianluo Realm account for a large proportion, and everyone's strength cannot be underestimated."
Yan Zhen sighed first and continued, "And as far as I know, some sword masters with unknown backgrounds seem to be dormant nearby, waiting for opportunities to move, so it is not a simple matter to try to seize food from the mouths of these strong men."
After saying that, he didn't forget to look at Lin Xi. The meaning was very obvious. If you were alone, you wouldn't be able to feel anything.
Although Lin Xi was calm on the surface, she agreed with Yan Zhen's words in her heart. Su Feng's strength was not far from his, and this could be clearly seen from his behavior.
"According to my information, the powerful people from all walks of life who came from the ancient ruins were not as simple as they were seen on the surface. I only knew that there was the terrifying existence of stepping into the sword saint with one foot. But Brother Lin, can you guarantee that among these sword masters who are interested in the ruins, there is really no... Sword saint?"
Hearing this, Lin Xi's plain face finally became a little solemn.
Since I just arrived at this wasteland, Lin Xi has been wondering whether there are any powerful sword saints among the 100 sword masters participating in the assessment?
Although he had never encountered this along the way, he had a vague feeling in his heart that even an inconspicuous person like him could quickly step into the level of a half-step sword saint, let alone other domains with rich resources and genius?
Take Yongyuan Realm as an example. If someone told him that there was no strong sword saint among the twenty people, Lin Xi would certainly not believe it, so he had been extremely careful along the way and did not dare to relax at all.
Even if he is showing off his strength, he has to admit that if he faces the powerful sword saint in Yongyuan Realm at this moment, he will not have any chance of winning.
Lin Xi is very clear about the gap between the Sword Saint and the Half-Step Sword Saint. Although this Half-Step Sword Saint is so good, to put it bluntly, it is just a more powerful Sword King.
And the resources in the Yongyuan Domain are so excellent, the spiritual skills and sword skills levels are probably not weak. It is difficult to defeat the genius sword saint of the Yongyuan Domain, even an ordinary sword saint of the same level, let alone a half-step sword saint.
"It seems that the ancient ruins are not that easy to break through..." A thought flashed through my mind, and Lin Xi leaned back and breathed a sigh of relief.
When he really met the genius swordsman from the entire continent head-on, he clearly discovered his lack of strength. After all, even if his talent is outstanding, he is walking alone along the way. It is not easy to compete with the genius swordsman who has been trained since childhood.
Yan Zhen nodded, looked at Lin Xi with a burning gaze, and then slowly said: "So, I hope you can consider joining our team and have some advice in the middle. If you are single, it will be hard to move forward in the battle for the ancient ruins."
Yan Zhen said the truth, and Lin Xi did not refute anything. Sometimes, it is not a bad thing to have more allies around him.
"Brother Yan, I wonder if I can tell you the location of the ancient ruins?" Lin Xi did not respond immediately, but instead changed his voice and said.
"This is not a secret in the ancient city."
Yan Zhen also had the idea of soliciting Lin Xi, so he did not intend to hide the other party's problem and said directly: "The location of the ancient ruins is in an unknown mountain range not far from this second-level ancient city. I believe Brother Lin has heard of the Jianyuan Storm?"
Lin Xi nodded. He had heard Su Feng mention this before.
"Yeah." Yan Zhen nodded and continued: "The sword-yuan storm around the ancient ruins is now constantly weakening. I believe that it will not take long before the sword-yuan storm will completely disappear. That is the time when the clouds in all directions are truly moving."
"But there are many monsters in that mountain range, including powerful beings that reach level seven or even level eight. This is also a point we must be careful about."
Hearing this, Lin Xi felt a stern. It seemed that it was not that simple to have an idea of fighting for the ancient ruins. Not only did he have to compete with so many genius sword masters, but he also had to be careful of those extremely powerful monsters.
"In the deepest part of the mountain range, there is a valley, and there is the exact location of ancient ruins."
Yan Zhen finished speaking in one breath, staring at Lin Xi quietly, waiting for his answer, and Lang Song, who was beside him, also turned his eyes to him. Judging from his appearance, he seemed to have joined Yan Zhen's team.
"Now there are many strong people in this ancient city. It is no problem to deal with those monsters..." Lin Xi murmured in a low voice, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Hehe, that's right, although the monsters are not scary, in front of the ancient ruins, some sword masters are even more terrifying than them." Yan Zhen smiled and said.
Lin Xi didn't comment. He knew this kind of thing better than anyone else. Although the monsters were fierce, compared with those sinister and cunning sword masters, they felt like they were a witch. Friends who were still chatting and laughing with you the moment before might insert the spirit sword into your heart the next moment.
"Brother Yan, I wonder if someone from Yongyuan Domain appears in this second-level ancient city?" Lin Xi suddenly asked.
He and the people in Yongyuan Realm have a big and small holiday. Judging from what happened before, I'm afraid he has been wanted by Yongyuan Realm now.
"There are a few, but their strength is not far from you and me, and there is no particularly powerful swordsman. Even so, this does not mean that when the ancient ruins are opened, there will be no strong men from the Yongyuan Realm. Even people from the Yongyuan Realm will not be indifferent."
Yan Zhen pondered for a moment and gave a more pertinent answer.
Lin Xi nodded slowly, and his right hand habitually knocked on the stone table, falling into a brief meditation. It seemed that there were quite a few people interested in this ancient ruins, and it would be quite difficult to make a profit from it.
"Brother Yan, how many people are there now?" Lin Xi paused his fingers and asked.
"In addition to your words, the five people are the best among the half-step sword saints." Yan Zhen replied quickly.
"In this case..." Lin Xi took a light breath and then stopped hesitating. In this case, being too arrogant is not a good thing.
"Then I, Lin Xi, are the only ones!"
Hearing the other party's agreement, Yan Zhen looked happy and said with a smile: "Haha, okay, Brother Lin, half a month later, all the sword masters in this second-level ancient city will rush to the nameless mountain range. Then we gather at the city gate and go together."
"Well, no problem, it's getting late, so I'll say goodbye first." Lin Xi nodded and then stood up.
"Goodbye!" Yan Zhen and Lang Song also stood up immediately.
Lin Xi nodded with a smile, and then left the trading venue without looking back.
Looking at the direction where Lin Xi left, Yan Zhen's expression moved, not knowing what he was thinking.
Returning to his residence the same way, Lin Xi sat on a stone chair, her eyes closed slightly, thinking about her plans later.
"Lin Xi, there are many treasures in the ancient ruins. Whether you can get them depends on your luck." At this moment, the long-lost voice of Lieyang suddenly rang in his mind.
"Why are you free today?" Lin Xi did not open her mouth, and her mental power moved and communicated with Lieyang.
"I have been here because of this place." Lieyang said with a smile.
"What?" Lin Xi's eyes suddenly opened, her face very surprised.
"That happened a long time ago. At that time, the city was not yet ruined, and the person who could enter here was at least the Sword Saint level. The mysterious city lord was evenly ill-feared. My ex-master had a fight with him once, and he was evenly matched."
A trace of remembrance is revealed in the sound of the scorching sun.
After hearing Lie Yang's words, Lin Xi's face was even more surprised. Unexpectedly, the lord of this small ancient city was so powerful.
"If I expected it was right, the so-called ancient ruins should be left by the city lord."
The sound of the fiery sun continued to sound, and Lin Xi's face was suddenly shocked.
