The border of Yunping State and Green Mountain State was marked by a grand river, where a group of Loose Cultivators had gathered. "Brother Zhao, did you really see a treasure light underwater?" As the moment of truth approached, a cultivator couldn't help but voice his doubts. Zhao Hu, a man of tall stature and rugged appearance, replied in a muffled voice, "Why don't you believe me, Zhou? Don't you all know what kind of person I am?" "Wasn't it just a month ago when the Earth Dragon Turned Over? Seeing so many Spirit Veins appear within the territory of Yunping State and with the Yuanming Sect issuing rewards, I thought I'd try my luck in the great river. Maybe fortune would favor me and I'd find something?" "Who knows, maybe the Heavenly Dao took pity on me. Although I didn't find a Spirit Vein, I discovered something else, something good!" Only now did Zhao Hu reveal the part of the story he had kept hidden, "I found some ruins at the bottom of the river!" "Ruins?!" The breaths of all the Loose Cultivators present quickened. Though they were cultivators without lineage, the term 'ruins' was still well-known to them. If Secret Realms are originally places like Cave Heaven Blessed Lands, spiritual domains opened up by ancient cultivators, then ruins are what resulted from the sect gateways of some powers sinking deep into the earth due to extremely violent earth movements. Some unfortunate powers had vanished into the long river of history because of this very reason. Unlike Secret Realms, once ruins make their appearance, they rarely disappear again unless swallowed by the earth once more, a scenario with extremely low probability, almost unheard of in ten thousand years.@@@@ And the biggest difference of all is that ruins have no restriction on a cultivator's cultivation level, whether you are a Qi Cultivation cultivator, a Nascent Soul, or even a Divine Transformation elder, you can enter the ruins to explore. However, precisely because of this, ruins are much more dangerous than Secret Realms since one must face not only the perils within the ruins but also high-level cultivators from the outside world. "Brother Zhao, are you telling the truth? Have you really discovered some ruins?" At first, everyone was indeed excited, but after calming down and thinking it over, they felt something was amiss. If Zhao Hu had truly found some ruins, why would he tell them and share with them? Wouldn't it be better if he kept it all to himself? Zhao Hu could tell what they were thinking just by looking at their expressions and could not help but smile wryly, "I know you don't believe me, but it's the truth. As for why I'm seeking you out, it's because alone, I simply can't open the ruins!" Most ruins, before sinking into the earth, were the sect gates of some power, and were more than likely fortified with Formations. Other Loose Cultivators watching the scene couldn't help but say enviously, "Are those another few lucky ones who've found a Spirit Vein?" Since the Yuanming Sect announced the reward, a great many Loose Cultivators had been searching all around Yunping State for Spirit Veins, and indeed, a few had found them, and in turn, received generous rewards, which made other Loose Cultivators immensely envious. However, they had no idea that Zhao Hu and his group had not just found a Spirit Vein, but a relic not yet known to the world! "Is what you're saying true? There's a relic in the great river?" The stationed Cultivator of the Yuanming Sect, exuding his imposing aura, asked solemnly. "It's true, we've just come back from the river," Zhao Hu said, his voice trembling: "I've also recorded the relic with a Memory Stone." To gain the trust of the Yuanming Sect and obtain the reward quickly, Zhao Hu had made sure to use the Memory Stone before leaving. The stationed Cultivator withdrew his imposing aura, activated the Memory Stone in Zhao Hu's hand, and indeed, there was a Formation at the dark riverbed, emitting a pale yellow Spirit Light. Below the Formation, one could clearly see various buildings, and a little further away, there were Spiritual Medicines that had propagated for who knows how many generations. "Very good, very good! You've done a great service!" At that moment, a murderous intent suddenly arose in his heart, wanting to forever silence them to ensure the secret would not leak. But, thinking of the many people who saw them walking in from the Marketplace's gate, if he were to deal with them now, it could bring trouble instead. "This matter is of utmost importance, so after you leave here, you'd better stay inside the Marketplace, and you must keep the secret, otherwise..." Zhao Hu and the others felt the hair on their bodies stand on end, terrified that the Foundation Establishment Cultivator might kill them to silence them the next second. Fortunately, he was considerate of Yuanming Sect's reputation and didn't act, instead, he instructed them to go ahead and receive a reward many times greater than what they would have gotten for finding a Spirit Vein. "Two junior brothers, stay here and guard the Marketplace, I will immediately return to the Sect to report this matter!" The Cultivator with the highest cultivation among them spoke, "And keep an eye on those Loose Cultivators, don't let them spread the news, we will still need them to lead the way later." "Senior brother, go ahead, the two of us will guard the Marketplace," the two responded; they were not the petty kind, and reporting the news to the Sect wouldn't necessarily affect their own rewards by much. As for the matter that followed, it was even easier to handle; simply arrange for disciples to watch over them, preventing them from leaving the Marketplace was enough. "Good." As soon as these words were spoken, the person stepped onto his flying sword and transformed into a rainbow light leaving the Marketplace.
