Primordial Divine Emperor-Chapter 278 - 153: Counterattack, an Unexpected Power (Part 2)

In front of an extremely ancient and grand palace complex, a towering stone stele resembling a sky monument stood between heaven and earth, engraved with a few spacious and majestic characters.

When everyone saw those characters, they all felt their breathing become rapid, and their eyes were filled with shock.

Mo Shiyi's eyes were filled with horror, and he incredulously read those characters aloud: "Wen Xian Sect, First Peak!"

"Wen Xian Sect, is this really the ancient ruins of the Wen Xian Sect?" Upon recognizing those characters, more than ten cultivators turned pale with disbelief in their eyes.

Even Wang Changsheng and Qi Yuan, standing beside Ye Xiaofan, were dumbstruck for a long while.

"This must indeed be the ancient ruins of an ancient sect from ancient times, associated with the Wen Xian Sect." After reading the ancient characters, Mo Shiyi expressed an utterly baffled expression: "No, this isn't right. How could the Wen Xian Sect's sect ruins appear within the 'Hundred Sects Battle Domain' of the Hundred Broken Mountain Range region? It shouldn't be here; this is very incorrect."

Mo Shiyi shook his head continuously, his eyes full of doubt and questions.

"Is there something wrong with the Wen Xian Sect's ancient ruins appearing here?" Nangong Jianchen asked instinctively.

Only then did Mo Shiyi speak: "If this Wen Xian Sect is the same Wen Xian Sect of ancient times, it should not be here. As far as I know, the Wen Xian Sect was an ancient sect located in Central State of the Martial Soul Continent. Even if it has disappeared, its ruins shouldn't appear here."

"This fellow from Cyan Cloud Sect is correct. The Wen Xian Sect was indeed an ancient divine sect from Central State, situated in Central State territory, which is an unending distance from Nanming Country. It is said that even strong Ascenders wouldn't reach Central State in their lifetime, let alone expect the ancient ruins of Central State's divine sect to appear here."

Upon hearing this, many strong individuals were visibly shocked.

To think this place is a region unreachable even by an Ascender in their lifetime—how many rivers and mountains such a distance would encompass, especially given the indescribable speed at which Ascenders fly. Stepping out, they could traverse millions of rivers, and an Ascender's lifespan lasts at least several thousand years.

A place unreachable by an Ascender after thousands of years of flying, yet with its ancient sect ruins appearing here, is clearly very abnormal.

"Wen Xian Sect? Central State Divine Sect?"

Ye Xiaofan muttered to himself. Just the name of this ancient sect already revealed everything. Wen Xian, what kind of sect dares to name itself with 'Xian'? The history of this ancient sect is conceivable.

Even amongst divine sects, there is a world of difference between divine sects from different regions. For example, the divine sect in the Hundred Broken Mountain Range and Central State's divine sect are completely different. The greatest divine sect here would likely be insignificant in Central State, even incomparable to some timeless and terrifying cultivation races.

Yet, what amazes everyone more is the Wen Xian Sect's ancient ruins appearing here.

It is evident that this is not a coincidence; it seems as if an invisible hand is controlling everything.

However, at present, everyone did not dwell much on this thought, but instead directed their gaze towards that vast and majestic palace complex ahead.

One can imagine how many formidable beings once resided inside; yet, now, these places have become lost lands of inheritance.

Imagining soon entering inside, more than ten strong individuals were extremely excited; Central State's divine sect, for them, undoubtedly represents a land of treasure ahead.

After a brief moment of shock, seven experts of the Spiritual Essence Realm slightly bowed to Ye Xiaofan.

Clearly, they were grateful for being able to safely reach here, and this bow was deemed natural by the seven.

After a simple salute, the seven experts quickly flew into the sky, rushing towards the palace group of ancient ruins.

Currently, only more than ten people had first reached Divine Peak, and with vast opportunities ahead, it wasn't time to engage in heated conflict. Everyone only wanted to quickly find their own great fortune.

After all, being able to ascend Divine Peak before those unparalleled demon fiends and monstrous beings meant having a preemptive advantage.

Seeing this, Ye Xiaofan and the others did not hesitate and immediately rushed towards that majestic palace group.

"Brother Ye, there are no words to express gratitude; upon leaving, this kindness will not be forgotten in my lifetime," Wang Changsheng said, then quickly followed Ye Xiaofan towards that direction, breaking through the air. At present, the urgent task is to seek fortune and leave, at least before those unparalleled fiends and creatures ascend Divine Peak, the opportunities here belong to them.

Qi Yuan also, with eyes full of excitement, said: "I truly couldn't have imagined that I, Qi Yuan, would have a day to rush ahead, without Brother Ye, I wouldn't have even dared to aspire to ascend Divine Peak. Whatever fortune is encountered next, it is thanks to Brother Ye, and this sentiment is recognized."

All three individuals flew side by side, each with differing emotions, while Ye Xiaofan did not respond much. Ever since setting foot on Divine Peak, he had been searching for that delicate figure; upon entering Divine Peak his Martial Soul and 'Ten Spiritual Essences' surged to the extreme, terrifyingly intense.

Yet, just as everyone was flying toward the ancient palace complex, two figures exchanged a glance.

These two figures were none other than the two terrifying strangers who had been tailing them all along.
