A few days later, Yun Fan and Yue Chan arrived at ruins.
These ruins were originally very hidden. If the two had to find them themselves, they probably wouldn't find them in their lifetime.
The reason they were able to reach here was according to the guidance recorded by the Zen Master.
According to the Zen Master's records, he had once discovered a path leading to the ruins at the bottom of the Yellow River.
After he entered the ruins, he seemed to have touched upon something mysterious and returned without success.
Of course, Yue Chan had no intention of coming to these ruins. According to the Zen Master's records, there were obvious unknown dangers here.
But Yun Fan insisted on coming.
And the reason was very simple: if there were any dangers, there was a high probability that they involved the uncanny.
His current main task was to eliminate the uncanny. If he could discover the uncanny within these ruins, he could catch them all in one go.
Of course, eliminating an Ancestor of the Uncanny, like the Seventh Ancestor, was truly dangerous. With the slightest carelessness, even he might perish.
The two searched for many days before finding this entrance at the bottom of the Yellow River.
At this moment, inside the ruins, Yue Chan said, "This place is truly mysterious. From the perspective of Feng Shui, this should be a place where a true dragon sleeps. To be buried here and have ruins built, this must be a powerful emperor!"
This was Yue Chan's guess.
Yun Fan said, "That's right, it's not impossible to find an intact Imperial Realm imprint!"
"If there is an intact imprint, then we'll be rich!"
Yue Chan herself was also a half-step Imperial Realm expert. She needed an intact Imperial Realm imprint to help her break through to the Imperial Realm.
As for Yun Fan, he wasn't very interested in this imprint. What interested him now was only the uncanny. If he could resolve the uncanny, he would have many fewer enemies in the future.
"I've been noticing for the past few days that someone has been following us!"
Yun Fan said directly.
He had sensed this presence several times, but at critical moments, it would disappear. If they were truly being followed, then the other party must be a master.
"Is it from the uncanny lineage?"
Yue Chan asked.
"Hard to say!"
Yun Fan reminded her, "It's better to be careful. There are bound to be unknown dangers in here. Otherwise, why would someone as ambitious as the Zen Master be willing to give up?"
This was Yun Fan's deduction.
"Mm-hmm!"
Yue Chan nodded, and then the two of them went deeper into the ruins.
After carefully examining the environment and structure of the ruins, Yun Fan was certain that these ruins were not a product of the ancient era, nor were they from the mythological era.
Because these ruins were not that old, with a preliminary estimate of around three thousand years.
At this time, Yue Chan said, "Strange, what kind of emperor could find such a geomantically auspicious place!"
This was indeed an auspicious place, but no one knew who was responsible for it.
Yun Fan said, "It doesn't matter!"
At this moment, he carefully sensed his surroundings and found no trace of the uncanny. Moreover, the ruins were not large.
After confirming there was no uncanny presence, Yun Fan breathed a sigh of relief and lost interest. After all, he disdained breaking through using such methods.
Just then, Yue Chan said, "Look!"
Yun Fan looked in the direction she pointed and saw that there were nine mountains connected in front of them, with a dragon on each mountain.
Of course, they were not real dragons, but carved giant dragons. However, such an undertaking was a huge project even in this era.
Let alone in that era, it was unknown how much manpower and resources were used to achieve it.
"Nine Dragons Suppressing!"
Yun Fan said, "In my Ghost Valley sect, it is recorded that Nine Dragons Suppressing is a forbidden technique that emperors attempted to use to lock down dragon energy and ensure eternal rule of the land! But it has long been lost, or rather, its use is prohibited!"
"Why is it prohibited?"
Yue Chan looked at Yun Fan in confusion. If it truly had the effect of eternal rule, then countless people would probably be fighting to use it, especially the imperial family.
Yun Fan replied, "Because my Ghost Valley sect monitored the world throughout the generations and did not allow any dynasty to use it! Once it is used..."
"What happens once it is used?"
She looked at Yun Fan in confusion.
Yun Fan said, "Once it is used, my Ghost Valley sect will intervene, because activating this forbidden technique requires the sacrifice of hundreds, or even tens of millions of commoners' lives to be effective!"
"What?"
Yue Chan gasped. It was indeed cruel. Moreover, the Ghost Valley sect had always considered the well-being of the world as its responsibility, so it was normal for the Ghost Valley sect to stop it.
However, the Ghost Valley sect did not originate three thousand years ago, so when this forbidden technique was activated, the Ghost Valley sect had not yet been born.
At this moment, she said to Yun Fan, "This forbidden technique should not be effective, as no dynasty's fortune has lasted for over a thousand years!"
"Mm!"
Yun Fan said, "After all, this is just a legend. We'll know once we check it out!"
The two arrived in the middle of the nine mountains and found piles of white bones. It was originally a scene of mountains of corpses and seas of blood, but the sea of blood had dried up.
Now only black soil remained.
"How cruel!"
Yue Chan gasped. After three thousand years, these bones had not dissipated. It was unknown how many people had been slaughtered to achieve this.
Before the two could recover from their shock, the ground began to shake, and the place seemed on the verge of collapse.
"Go!"
The two flashed and quickly left the sacrificial altar.
But at this moment, a powerful oppressive force struck, making their scalps tingle.
Because this oppressive force was accompanied by the aura of an Imperial Realm expert, meaning that the Imperial Realm expert buried here was not dead.
He was now rapidly awakening.
"Who dares to disturb my slumber?"
A majestic voice rang out, making the two gasp.
At this moment, a figure awakened from the chaos. Upon seeing the opponent's face, the two became extremely vigilant.
Because this was an intact Imperial Realm expert.
"Who are you?"
Yue Chan asked, her courage bolstered.
"King Wu!"
