C279 The Entrance to the Ruins

Guu Han looked at the small pond in front of him. His expression was uncertain, but his eyes were flickering with surprise.

He turned around and looked at the cliff in front of him. He walked forward and threw a punch. The stone wall remained motionless, while Guu Han was forced back. His arm was sore, as if it had been dislocated.

The backlash from the stone wall had also surprised Guu Han. One should know that Guu Han's current strength and physique had far exceeded the ninth level of the Dream Sun Stage. The strength of a half-step Sun Locking Stage could be said to be invincible in the Dream Sun Stage. The strike just now had also used all of his strength, but the result was that the stone wall had been knocked back. It was imaginable what had happened.

"This cave isn't simple!" Guu Han looked at the stone wall in front of him and sighed. After that, he could not help but smile bitterly. This was the place where the Saint fell, how could an ordinary stone cave compare to it?

When he thought of this, Guu Han stopped being stubborn. After which, he turned around and walked to the side of the small pool. If the stone wall could not be moved, then. . . There was only one place left in the Sacred Spirit Pool. Guu Han used his enormous spiritual energy to probe into the pond, but what baffled him was that the pond wasn't deep. It was only one or two meters deep, nothing else.

This made Guu Han somewhat confused.

Since this was the place where the Saint fell, how could there be nothing? Then where was the corpse of the Saint after it died?!

He had no idea what to do with all of this.

Guu Han did not frown. He looked around without saying a word.

Since the Saint Relic could give him a slight feeling, why did it lead him into this dangerous place? Guu Han thought in his heart. Then, he couldn't help but release all of his mental energy to cover the entire cave, checking the places one by one, looking for the next path.

At this moment, Guu Han suddenly found a small, inconspicuous hole on the top of the cave. He wouldn't be able to find it if he didn't observe carefully. This made Guu Han somewhat happy.

It seemed that there was something strange about that small hole!

Thus, with a stomp of his foot, Guu Han soared into the sky and hovered in the void. He stretched out his hand and suddenly felt something similar to a stone inscription. It seemed to be some sort of imprint, causing Guu Han to suddenly tremble.

Wasn't this imprint the one at the bottom of the Sacred Spirit Pool just now?

"Could it be that we need to merge the two stone inscriptions together in order to open the door to the Saint Relic?!" Guu Han guessed and then arrived at the side of the pool. He jumped into the pool and placed the stone inscription at the bottom of the pool.

It really matched!

This made Guu Han even more certain of what he was thinking.

After that, the pool water gradually disappeared, and a hole appeared at the bottom of the pool, causing Guu Han to sink. After an unknown amount of time, Guu Han slowly woke up. His entire body felt like it had fallen apart, and it was incomparably painful.

That's right, Guu Han had fallen from above.

And it was under the condition that he couldn't use spirit energy!

Therefore, even if Guu Han's body had been tempered, he still wouldn't be able to withstand the violent fall of a body made of flesh and blood.

Guu Han stood up and looked at the scene in front of him. He was somewhat shocked.

The underground palace in front of him was majestic and imposing. Guu Han was deeply shocked. When he stepped into the palace, he felt a huge pressure that made him unable to move. Even the spiritual energy in his body was suppressed.

After that, a voice was heard from the underground palace.

"It has been hundreds of years. Finally, someone has come. But it is pitifully weak. Could it be that my lineage is really going to fall so low that no one can inherit it? "

The voice spoke slowly. It sounded lonely, but it made Guu Han smile bitterly.

He was actually despised.

Guu Han said, "May I ask if Senior is the Senior Saint from the Imperial Wind Academy who killed the Demon Domain Saint a hundred years ago?" Guu Han's voice echoed in the underground palace, but it was as if the voice had disappeared without a trace.

After a long while, a soft sigh was heard for the second time.

"That's right, I am!"

Guu Han was somewhat surprised, and even suspected that this expert had fallen.

After that, Guu Han said respectfully, "Senior, junior's name is Guu Han. He is a disciple of the Emperor Star Hall in the Imperial Wind Academy. Because he accepted a mission, he came to the Eastern Holy Mountain to search for the Saint and died. "

When Guu Han said this, the sound of laughter came from the underground palace. However, there was a hint of sadness and helplessness mixed in the laughter, which made Guu Han somewhat confused.

"Saint Relic?" The voice replied with a question, "It has been a hundred years. Time has passed really quickly. I never thought that the battle that day would have lasted for a hundred years. Perhaps it has been too long. The battlefield was regarded as a ruin. "

An old man suddenly walked out from the underground palace. The old man's body was hunched and his head was full of white hair. His face was extremely pale and bloodless. He was as thin as a stick, as if he was about to die.

Guu Han looked at the old man in front of him and couldn't help but be startled.

"Was it senior who spoke just now?!"

The old man raised his head, and a stiff smile appeared on his stiff face. After that, he nodded and said, "That's right. I was the one who spoke to you just now. What, is it strange? "

Guu Han wasn't just surprised, he was shocked.

The old man seemed to have seen the surprise on Guu Han's face and laughed out loud. His turbid eyes were actually staring at Guu Han with a bright light. He said, "Little guy, if I say that I am the Saint that you guys are talking about, do you believe me? If I say that I am actually not dead, do you believe me?! "

Although Guu Han had guessed it before, he was still a little shocked after hearing it with his own ears. However, he was no longer that shocked. Looking at the old man in front of him, to be honest, it was very difficult for Guu Han to connect him with a Holy Sun Stage warrior.

However, Guu Han didn't say this out loud.

"What? I don't look like one?" The old man seemed to have seen through Guu Han's thoughts. He then asked in a flat tone. Guu Han didn't say anything, indicating that he had tacitly agreed to the old man's question.

"Since senior didn't die, why hasn't he returned to the Imperial Wind Academy in the past few hundred years?" Guu Han asked, but the old man didn't seem to want to answer this question.

The old man didn't say anything, but he kept staring at Guu Han. He carefully looked at Guu Han and couldn't help but smile. "You've used all the Sacred Spirit Pool in front of you, right?"

Guu Han smiled embarrassedly and nodded his head.

After that, the old man didn't continue speaking. Instead, he looked at Guu Han and said, "Your current realm is still too weak. You haven't even reached the Sun Locking Stage yet. I'll give you one year's time. You have to break through to the fifth grade of Locking Sun City at least, or else. . . "The old man didn't finish his sentence. Before Guu Han could ask any more questions, the old man turned around and left.

"Alright, you can start cultivating now. Although the spiritual Qi here isn't as dense as the Holy Spirit Pool, it's still incomparable to the outside world. The rest is up to you. I'm tired, so I'm going to rest. "

Guu Han was speechless as he watched the old man leave. According to what the old man said, wouldn't he have to stay in this underground palace for a year?!

Guu Han felt helpless, but there was nothing he could do. It seemed like this was the only thing he could do. Guu Han carefully observed the old man before nodding his head in satisfaction. Just like what the old man said, the spiritual qi here was relatively dense. Although it wasn't as dense as the Holy Spirit Pool, it was much stronger compared to the outside world.

Therefore, Guu Han could only resign himself to his fate and stay here.

After finding a place, Guu Han sat cross-legged and felt the spiritual energy here. Then, he gradually entered a state of cultivation and took advantage of this opportunity to consolidate the spiritual energy he had absorbed in the Holy Spirit Pool.

Thus, Guu Han began a long journey of cultivation in this underground palace.
