The hundreds of thousands of warriors under the arena all looked unwilling.
They came all the way, only to be defeated in the first assessment. Especially those who were really strong felt extremely regretful. If they had known this, they should not have gone on stage in advance.
The disadvantage of playing early is that you will be consumed.
Zhou Yuan looked not far away. Jiang Ziyue also defeated Zhan Yu and became the champion there. Zhan Yu's eyes were blurred and he was still immersed in fear. He became like this. It was obviously Jiang Ziyue.
Take revenge on him.
There are also Zeng Miaoyu from the Sky-Splitting Sword Sect, Yin Chaonian from the Yanzhao Sect, Hong Lie from the Qianyang Sect, Fan Changchun from the Mingzhou Fan Family, and others, who are also in the ring.
High in the sky, the strong men from the twelve forces also silently looked at the five thousand figures on the stage.
These five thousand people are the strongest people in Hualing territory among the seven major states today.
At this moment, among the twelve people in the sky, the middle-aged man in black with sword-browed eyebrows and star-like eyes walked out again. He glanced below and opened his mouth again. His voice rumbled out, "Congratulations to everyone, you have successfully won the opportunity to enter the ruins."
If you have a quota, please return to the city to adjust your breath and recuperate. Tomorrow, twelve of us will go to the ant demon nest in advance to open the passage. After you pay the spirit stone, you can be on your way. I wish you a good journey."
After saying that, the twelve figures turned into streams of light and disappeared into the sky in an instant.
Everyone stared blankly. They can set off to the ruins tomorrow, but before going, they must each pay one hundred thousand spiritual stones. Five thousand people is equivalent to five hundred million.
And those twelve dragon spirit realm experts will go to the ant demon nest in advance.
Zhou Yuan stood on the ring, repeatedly observed those people, and thought about the meaning of their words, but found nothing unusual.
At the end of the competition, five thousand people walked to the ring and began to return to Zeman City.
As for the other 785,000 defeated warriors, they knew that this trip to Lingxi Swamp was over. If they were defeated in the competition, they would have no chance to go to the ruins again. They could only go back and forth from where they came.
There's no point in keeping it.
So that day, hundreds of thousands of people chose to leave Zeman City and embarked on their way home.
Zeman City instantly became empty and in a mess.
Zhou Yuan lived in the temporary mansion that Feng Mo Sect bought in Zeman City. He also heard some news that night. It was said that not all the warriors who failed the competition and were unable to enter the ruins had left.
A small group of warriors decided to form a team and walk directly through Lingxi Swamp.
If you don't take the passage opened by the twelve strong men, you don't have to pay one hundred thousand spirit stones, let alone be restrained. The twelve strong men stipulated that only five thousand people can enter the ruins this time, but as long as they enter from other places, they will
This provision can be ignored.
The largest battlefield of the Great Emperor's ruins so far is located in the deepest part of Lingxi Swamp and can be entered from any direction.
However, forcing their way through the Lingxi Swamp would involve facing huge dangers and possibly their lives. They could only bear these risks themselves.
After resting for a night, Zhou Yuan and Jiang Ziyue left together the next day, while Su Ruobing still stayed in the mansion.
The central square of Zeman City is already full of people. These are yesterday's champions.
Most of the losers had left, and Zeman City was finally no longer as crowded as before. Zhou Yuan and Jiang Ziyue quickly arrived at the place where the spirit stones were handed over.
There was a Dragon Spirit Realm warrior there. He didn't know which force he belonged to, but no one dared to offend him anyway. In his hand, he held a large handful of Najies, which were all spiritual stones handed in by everyone.
Najie is not precious and can be purchased for one or two thousand spirit stones.
Five thousand people each handed over one ring, which was five thousand rings, but these were not included in the 100,000 tolls.
Zhou Yuan also turned over with one hand and handed a Na Ring containing one hundred thousand spirit stones to the Dragon Spirit Realm warrior.
The warrior inspected it, and then nodded slightly to Zhou Yuan.
"It seems like you are very rich, why don't you pay it for me too?" Jiang Ziyue said from the side.
Zhou Yuan glanced at her and said, "The Saint of Feng Mo Sect should be richer than me."
"Huh, cheapskate."
Jiang Ziyue wanted to hit Zhou Yuan, but Zhou Yuan didn't follow the rules at all, so she could only take out a Nai Ring and hand it over.
Zhou Yuan remained calm. His current net worth has already exceeded 100 million.
Ever since he took over Xingyue Building and named it Xingyun Trading Company, he gained a lot of wealth. Later, he gained a little bit when he went to Tianhong Kingdom, and also gained a lot in the cave of Situ Xingzhou in Tianmu Kingdom.
Small.
Later, when he arrived in Luzhou, he took over countless stolen money and stolen goods from Hei Que.
After handing over the spiritual stones, the two stood in the crowd and began to wait silently.
Five thousand people have not yet arrived, and only 500 million spiritual stones can be used to set off on the road.
At this time, Zhou Yuan also heard some complaints from the discussions of people around him.
"Five million spiritual stones are enough for me to establish a sect in a certain state. Although the scope of influence is not as good as the twelve major forces in the seven states, it can still establish a century-old inheritance."
"Isn't that right? These twelve forces want too much, and 500 million spiritual stones can make them glorious for hundreds of years."
"It's not much. One person only has one hundred thousand spiritual stones. You can buy a spiritual weapon for more than this price."
"It's too small, the layout is too small. If five thousand people present give you one hundred thousand spiritual stones, do you still think that one hundred thousand spiritual stones are too small?"
Everyone present was discussing the matter of handing over the spirit stone.
Paying 100,000 spirit stones is equivalent to buying an extra life in the process of going to the ruins. Some people think that the 100,000 spirit stones are worth it, while others think it is not.
One hundred thousand spiritual stones is really not much, but five hundred million spiritual stones is very huge.
Some people are also talking about how profitable the Twelve Forces are. Not counting the 500 million this time, from the opening of the ruins to the future, every time 500 people are transported into the ruins, 50 million spiritual stones will be obtained. Accumulated,
You can also make billions.
Of course, the most they can do is use this to stir their mouths.
The passage to the ant demon's lair was opened by the Dragon Spirit Realm experts among the twelve forces, so it is only natural that they should be asked for their hard work.
"Follow me." Jiang Ziyue shouted to Zhou Yuan.
Zhou Yuan's expression moved slightly, and he followed Jiang Ziyue into a group of people.
Here, Zhou Yuan saw several familiar figures, including Zeng Miaoyu, Yin Chaonian, Hong Lie, Fan Changchun and others.
These people are like stars holding the moon, surrounded by everyone.
Seeing Jiang Ziyue and Zhou Yuan walking past, those people all made way for them, not daring to stop them at all.
"This is Jiang Ziyue, the saint of the Feng Mo Sect. Not only is she beautiful, she is also terrifyingly powerful. She was able to easily defeat Zhan Yu of the Zhan family."
"This young man is not bad either. His showdown with the rogue cultivator was so exciting."
As soon as Zhou Yuan passed by, he heard everyone talking about him and Jiang Ziyue. Both of them were the last ones to take the stage. They easily defeated the strong ones on the stage, which naturally attracted a lot of attention.
There are also people like Zeng Miaoyu and Hong Lie, who are all strong men who persevered from the middle to the end.
At this moment, they were gathered together, and many people were full of praise.
Although the competition determines the final five thousand people, among these five thousand people, everyone's strength is different, good and bad, and some truly strong people are naturally noticed by everyone.
These people are among the most powerful among the five thousand people.
Zhou Yuan looked at the 5,000 people present and sighed in his heart. These 5,000 people are all at the peak of the ninth level of the Spirit Transformation Realm, but only a few can finally break through to the Dragon Spirit Realm. This shows how difficult it is to break through from the Spirit Transformation Realm to the Dragon Spirit Realm.
.
"This little brother has great strength and qualifications. I see that you have been following the Feng Mo Sect Saint all the way. You must be a Feng Mo Sect disciple, right?"
At this time, Fan Changchun from the Fan family in Mingzhou took the initiative to walk up to Zhou Yuan and start a conversation with him.
Zhou Yuan glanced at the old man and thought of the scene yesterday when the opponent controlled more than a dozen mantises to fight with his opponent. This beast control master was also amazing.
"That's right, he is a disciple of my Feng Mo Sect." Just as Zhou Yuan cupped his fists in response, Jiang Ziyue on the side spoke first.
This made many people around them widen their eyes in surprise.
"The Feng Mo Sect in Luzhou is the top force in Luzhou. I didn't expect to be able to train both of you at the same time. It's really enviable." Fan Changchun said with twinkling eyes.
Hong Lie from the Qianyang Sect also came over and looked at the two of them with great envy. "It's really good. They are both young and promising. They must be the golden boy and girl of the Feng Mo Sect, right?"
"The golden boy?"
Jiang Ziyue felt a blockage in her throat and almost coughed up.
They are not golden boys and girls. On the contrary, they are unceasing enemies. If Jiang Ziyue hadn't been unable to defeat Zhou Yuan, Jiang Ziyue would have torn Zhou Yuan into pieces. If Jiang Ziyue hadn't poisoned Su Ruobing's body, Zhou Yuan would have been killed.
Yuan Ye slapped her to death, how could she be a golden girl?
However, Jiang Ziyue was noncommittal about this answer, seeming to admit it but not seeming to admit it.
Looking at the envious looks around him, Zhou Yuan did not want to be misunderstood, so he immediately clasped his fists and said: "Everyone, in fact, she and I are just acquaintances, not what you think, and I am not a disciple of Feng Mo Sect.
I am just a casual warrior."
Zhou Yuan told the truth directly. He did not want to get too close to Feng Mo Sect. After all, Feng Mo Sect did not have a very good reputation in the entire Nineteen States.
"You..." Jiang Ziyue immediately glared at Zhou Yuan fiercely.
She already loves vanity and is used to hearing compliments, even if they are false, she still finds them useful, but Zhou Yuan exposes them in the blink of an eye.
For a moment, everyone around them looked strange, becoming somewhat curious about the intricate relationship between the two.
While they were chatting, the five thousand people present finally arrived.
The person who collected the money knew the number of the rings and confirmed that it was five thousand. Then he took these rings and flew straight to the city lord's palace in Zeman City.
The members of the twelve forces here are not only the twelve dragon spirit realm strongmen, but also many elders and other leaders who have stayed in the city lord's mansion for a long time. Every time they gather 500 people, they will bring these
Five hundred people went to the ant demon's nest in person.
It was the same this time. After the 500 million spirit stones were divided equally, they all flew out from the city lord's mansion.
Everyone in the central square looked up, and when they looked at the unfamiliar faces, they all showed shock, because these warriors who came out were all at the Dragon Spirit Realm, and there were forty or fifty of them in number.
Zhou Yuan was also extremely shocked. This was the first time he saw so many Dragon Spirit Realm warriors.
If this were placed in Qingzhou, a person would probably never meet a Dragon Spirit Realm person in his entire life. Sure enough, the area is remote. If he didn't go out and try his luck, he would have to sit in a well and watch the sky for the rest of his life.
These forty or fifty people all come from twelve forces including three sects, four tribes and five sects from the seven major states.
Although they were all in the Dragon Spirit Realm, Zhou Yuan noticed that they were only at the first to fifth levels of the Dragon Spirit Realm, and their cultivation levels were much lower than those of the twelve people before.
The twelve people before were all at the fifth to ninth levels of the Dragon Spirit Realm, and only they could open the passage to the ant demon's lair.
"Okay everyone, let everyone wait for a long time. If you are ready, let's set off now. We will guide you to the ant demon's nest." One of them said to the people below: "Remember, although there are ten of me,
The strongest of the two forces have opened a passage there, but the ant demon nest is also full of dangers, so we must treat it with caution."
Everyone below nodded in unison.
Immediately, all the five thousand people below flew up, and the dense crowd followed those Dragon Spirit Realm warriors towards the ant demon's nest.
"There are countless ant demons in the ant demon nest. Each adult ant demon is the size of a hand, has a hard body, and has amazing bite force. I am not afraid of just one or two, but I am afraid that they will surround me in groups. When the time comes,
I can't even run away."
"That's right, the ant demon is a kind of insect-like earth spirit beast. They usually live in groups deep underground. Presumably the ant demon's nests extend in all directions, and you might get lost if you don't."
"Before, before the strong men from the twelve forces opened that passage, it was said that hundreds of people formed a small team and wanted to enter the ruins through the ant demon nest. But who knew that they were besieged by the ant demon swarm, and the ant demons were ordinary people.
Anyone who crawls over them will become a withered skeleton, and in the end, not one of the hundreds of people will come out alive."
"Hey, don't be afraid. This time there are strong men from the twelve forces blocking most of the exits. Most of the ant demons can't get out."
Zhou Yuan was among the crowd and heard a lot about the ant demon's nest.
