The Great Ruler - Chapter512

Humm!

Humm! Six boundless light pillars pierced through the horizon, before shooting towards the ancient and gigantic Spiritual Array outside of the Divine Wood Mountain under countless blazing gazes. As the light pillars shot over, ripples started to undulate from the gigantic Spiritual Array. Ripples started to radiate out, appearing just like a pond that had a stone thrown into it.

The gazes of Mu Chen and the rest were tightly locked onto the gigantic ancient Spiritual Array. This Spiritual Array should be the Sect Protecting Array of the Divine Wood Palace from the ancient times. Its might was unfathomable, and not to mention them, even ordinary Sovereign experts might not be able to break through it. Therefore, they could only hope that the Divine Wood Plaque would truly be able to open it. If not, they could only stare helplessly at the mountain of treasures before them.

Humm!

Fortunately, the most unlucky situation did not appear. As the six light pillars condensed, glowing cracks started to gradually extend out from the ancient Spiritual Array. In the next instant, the cracks started to tear apart, forming a gigantic glowing crack that was roughly a few hundred metres wide.

Following the appearance of the gigantic crack, an ancient hurricane seemed to sweep out from it, causing the entire region to turn somewhat boundless at this moment.

The glowing crack gradually stabilised, appearing like a gigantic door that was slowly opening up. Behind it was the genuine remnant that had been passed down from the ancient times!

Gulp.

Quite a few people quietly swallowed a mouthful of saliva as a scorching heat gushed out from the depths of their eyes.

"The remnant of the Divine Wood Palace has opened!"

No one knew who it was that suddenly roared out, causing the originally quiet region to instantly erupt. Countless Spiritual Energy fluctuations rushed towards the sky as figures shot out at lightning speed, rushing straight towards the gigantic crack.

"Let's go!"

Mu Chen's reaction was extremely quick. Just as the crack stabilised, he gave a low roar and took the lead to rush out. Behind him, Luo Li, Wen Qingxuan and the rest closely followed behind him, their speed similarly as swift as a streak of light.

Huge cracks spread across the ancient spiritual array. It was like a huge mouth from ancient times, swallowing the countless light figures that were rushing over like locusts.

In less than ten minutes, this place, which was originally filled with a sea of people, had instantly become empty. Only the mess on the ground symbolized the previous hustle and bustle of this place. Moreover, there were still groups hurrying over from the distance.

Clearly, a fight for the remnant that would shake the entire Great Spiritual Academy Tournament had started.

As for who would ultimately reap the greatest benefits in this relic, that would depend on which side's skill was a notch higher.

When Mu Chen and the rest charged into the huge crack, the light in front of them suddenly brightened. What appeared in front of them was a huge mountain that seemed to cover the entire sky. At a glance, no matter if it was up or down, left or right, it was impossible to see the end of the mountain.

This primordial mountain was so huge that it was terrifying.

Mu Chen and the rest were also shocked by the size of the huge mountain. However, shortly after, they rapidly descended and landed on a mountain peak.

The environment here was covered in an emerald green colour, emitting a vigorous vitality. Even the Spiritual Energy between the heavens and earth seemed to have become extremely lively. Due to the lively Spiritual Energy, the faces of Mu Chen and the rest turned grave as they realised that the Spiritual Energy between the heavens and earth was much more difficult to mobilize compared to the outside world.

"This should be a special cultivation method of the Divine Wood Palace. After adapting to this place, if we return to the outside world, the speed at which we can mobilize the Spiritual Energy between the heavens and earth will also increase."

Wen Qingxuan raised her jade-like hand and a stream of spiritual energy shot out, blasting a towering tree in the distance into pieces.

"However, if that's the case, the consumption of our Spiritual Energy will also increase when we fight with others," said Luo Li with a grave expression on her lovable face.

"Luckily, we've prepared some Combat Spiritual Pills," said Mu Chen with a smile as he cast a glance at Wen Qingxuan. He was a little impressed by her preparations.

Facing his gaze, a prideful arc rose on Wen Qingxuan's rosy lips. After these few days of interaction, she knew that although Mu Chen seemed to be a good-natured fellow, he was, in fact, a prideful person deep in his bones. Wanting him to admire her wasn't a simple matter.

"What should we do next?" asked Luo Li as she looked at Mu Chen.

Raising his head, Mu Chen looked at the sky in the distance. Whooshing sounds continued to ring out. Light figures hid the skies and covered the earth as they descended towards the Primordial Mountain, breaking the silence that had been maintained for countless years. Next, the groups that would rush into this place would be like a swarm of locusts, plundering all the treasures left behind from the ancient times.

Mu Chen looked into the distance. Coming to this remnant of the Divine Wood Palace, the thing that he wanted the most, other than the so-called inheritance, was the Nine Suns Divine Lingzhi. It was an indispensable material for him to cultivate the "Great Solar Undying Body" in the future. He knew how rare and precious such a Spiritual Treasure was. Such an item was sufficient to attract the eyes of Sovereign realm experts. If it was outside, with his current strength, it was simply impossible for him to dip his finger in such a Spiritual Treasure. However, right now, it was an extremely rare opportunity. Therefore, he had to grab hold of this opportunity and obtain the Nine Suns Divine Lingzhi!

"There should be a Spiritual Treasure Mountain in the ruins of the Divine Wood Palace. There are quite a few rare Spiritual Treasures on the mountain. Among them, there is a Spiritual Treasure that I need. I want to go there first."

Mu Chen looked at Wen Qingxuan. After all, they were working together with Wen Qingxuan and the rest. Therefore, there were some things that he had to make clear to them.

"Spiritual Treasure Mountain?"

Wen Qingxuan's slender eyebrows gently twitched as she said in an indifferent tone, "When others enter this place, they will first search for the inheritance. Aren't you putting the cart before the horse by going to the so-called Spiritual Treasure Mountain?"

Mu Chen was speechless. According to normal circumstances, that was indeed the case. However, the Nine Suns Divine Lingzhi that he urgently needed was there. If he was late and someone else got there before him, how long would he have to wait before he could obtain news of the Nine Suns Divine Lingzhi?

This move of his had quite a bit of benefit for him. However, it wasn't too certain for Wen Qingxuan and the rest. After this period of interaction, Mu Chen knew that Wen Qingxuan was an extremely opinionated girl. Furthermore, she was somewhat overbearing. In the past, when she cooperated with others, she would be the one taking the lead, with others only having to listen to her instructions. Therefore, Mu Chen truly didn't have any confidence that he would be able to make this girl, who was blessed by the heavens, completely follow his train of thought.

Just when Mu Chen did not know what to say, Wen Qingxuan's indifferent expression changed as a sweet smile surfaced on her face. She waved her jade-like hand and said, "Although your choice might not be correct, I will temporarily believe you this time. However, let me tell you, if I do not obtain a satisfactory harvest in the so-called Spiritual Treasure Mountain, I will find you to settle the debt."

Looking at the rapid change in her expression, Mu Chen helplessly shook his head. The degree of difficulty to deal with Wen Qingxuan was simply comparable to the first time he had met Luo Li. Although, at that time, the latter did not utter any nonsense with him, and had directly raised her sword and chased after him for half a year.

"However, the Divine Wood Palace is so vast. Do you know the location of the Spiritual Treasure Mountain?

Don't tell me that you intend to search aimlessly? "Luo Li suddenly asked.

Hearing this, Mu Chen was stunned for a moment. Shortly after, he bitterly smiled and nodded his head. That was indeed his plan. However, he did not expect the Divine Wood Palace to be so huge.

"I really have to give it to you. You still want to search for treasures in this state." Wen Qingxuan rolled her eyes at Mu Chen and said.

"You have a way?" Mu Chen looked at Wen Qingxuan.

"Since you said that the Spiritual Treasure Mountain has many natural treasures, then it should be the Spiritual Treasure Garden of the Divine Wood Palace in ancient times. It is a place that specializes in planting natural treasures. Some of the major forces and clans have similar places. These places all have a common point."

Wen Qingxuan slightly smiled. She seemed exceptionally elegant and said: "That is, they will choose the place where the Spiritual Energy of the Heavens and Earth flows the most."

Mu Chen rubbed his nose. He came from a small place like the Northern Spiritual Realm. Although his father was the so-called Mu Territory Lord, a force of that level did not have the qualifications to create a Spiritual Treasure Garden. Therefore, he did not know anything about these high-end things that only those forces with a strong foundation could do. Therefore, he could only ask again: "Then how do we detect the place where the Spiritual Energy of the Heavens and Earth flows the most?"

"Of course, we need a special Spiritual Tool to do that. Could it be that we can detect it with our strength?" Wen Qingxuan continued to roll her eyes at him.

"We don't have that kind of thing." Mu Chen's face turned red and he became angry from embarrassment.

"What an unreliable man."

Wen Qingxuan sighed and waved her hand. Behind her, a ball of light immediately appeared in the hand of the quiet An Ya. Within the ball of light, there was a compass-like Spiritual Tool floating. She then handed it over to Wen Qingxuan.

Grasping the compass-like Spiritual Artifact, Wen Qingxuan circulated her Spiritual Energy to activate it. In the next instant, Mu Chen noticed that there seemed to be a glowing needle rapidly rotating on the surface of the compass. After a long while, a ray of light shot out from the compass. That ray of light seemed to have transformed into an arrowhead, extending and extending as it pointed towards the northwest direction.

"I've detected it. If we head in that direction, we should be able to find the Spiritual Treasure Mountain." Wen Qingxuan stored the compass-like Spiritual Tool and smiled at Mu Chen: "Are you convinced?"

Mu Chen was a little depressed. He felt that he was being looked down upon by Wen Qingxuan.

"Let's go." Mu Chen curled his lips and said weakly.

Seeing his appearance, Luo Li couldn't help shaking her head with a smile. Then, she stretched her hand out and held onto his hand, giving him some comfort.

"My wife is still the best."

Mu Chen held onto the tender little hand in his hand and grinned. Unable to bear it, he moved closer and gave a kiss on Luo Li's smooth jade-like face.

Luo Li's face turned red from his sudden action and she could only stare at him shyly.

"Shameless!" Seeing this, Wen Qingxuan gritted her teeth and stared at Mu Chen with hatred.

"Haha, let's go to the Spiritual Treasure Mountain to obtain the treasures!"

Only then did Mu Chen let out a carefree laugh. He ignored Wen Qingxuan and pulled Luo Li. As Spiritual Energy swept out, they turned into two streaks of light and flew into the distance. Behind them, Wen Qingxuan stomped her feet and chased after them in anger. Xu Huang and the rest also quickly followed.
