Divine Flame Crystal

Chapter 229: Ruins Gate

Xingluo did not have much experience in ruins exploration, but he had seen too many magic arrays and was able to research the starry sky computing array diagram by himself. It was not difficult for him to open a door. Five magic array diagrams appeared at the same time behind Xingluo, as if some large-scale magic was being performed. The scene was very spectacular. After seeing Xingluo's scene, several people showed expectations. It's not that they have never seen alchemists crack complex magic arrays, but they were either old men with white hair or holding a pile of parchment and writing and drawing. A person like Xingluo, who stood in place without taking out any auxiliary tools, and the starry sky array map that emerged was extremely gorgeous, which made people envious, especially the three sky knights. Their combat skills were not as gorgeous as magic, and now even breaking a magic array was like a fireworks show, so gorgeous that they drooled. It's not that they have never seen the world, but it was the first time they saw a magic array broken in this way. After all, the starry sky array map has not been circulated yet, and even those that have been circulated can only call upon a magic array at most.

Xingluo has never given up his research on magic circles, and now it is finally time to make others envious. He also intends to show off. After all, good things are meant to be envied by others. Without the envious eyes of others, he always feels that something is missing.

The starry sky array map assisted Xingluo in cracking the magic circle. In fact, it would be much easier if you knew how to open the door. However, the great magic era was interrupted and many things were lost, not to mention these private door opening methods passed down by word of mouth. Most of the ruins are equivalent to the magician's back garden. Knowing how to open the door is equivalent to being able to go in and take things at will.

However, because no one has maintained the ruins for a long time, the magic circles have gone out of control, and there are a large number of mysterious space cracks. Many ruins have now become forbidden areas. It’s not that the magician’s owner deliberately made things difficult for future generations, but they seemed to have left in too much of a hurry and had no time to close the defensive magic circles. So if you go to explore the ruins, you’ll get a lot if you’re lucky, but you’ll die if you’re unlucky.

This is also the origin of the birth of adventurers. Most adventurers live a life of uncertainty. These ruins are most suitable for them. If they win the bet, they can live comfortably for half their lives. If they lose the bet, it doesn’t matter, because they are used to the adventure between life and death. The worst that can happen is death.

However, for a purposeful exploration like Xingluo's, they would understand the danger level of the ruins in advance. Even though the danger is great, with so many sky knights, they are no longer afraid of most of the dangers.

Xingluo also had beads of sweat on his forehead at this time. The magic circle of this relic was not simple, especially different from the magic circle of the Luoshen Empire. The magic circle here had strong local characteristics, and it was not easy for Xingluo to crack it. It was just that the crowd did not notice this. They were all immersed in the brilliance of Xingluo's magic circle. The magnificent and gorgeous magic circle deeply attracted their attention, especially Renata in silver, who looked at it very seriously, as if she had begun to be interested in the magic circle.

Although it was not easy for Xingluo to crack the magic circle, with the help of the star array map, the door was already rumbling and shaking. Everyone looked horrified. They had never expected that the other party did not need to write or draw, but the speed of cracking really shocked them. You know, it would take others at least a week to crack a magic circle of this level, and some even take up to a month. They have all made plans to stay here permanently. After all, Xingluo has not been here for a long time, and there are many local magic circles that require time to adapt.

As the door vibrated, Xingluo began to breathe heavily. It was really too taxing for his brain. He needed a large amount of oxygen to provide sufficient nutrients for his brain.

As the door shook more and more frequently, everyone showed joy on their faces. Finally, Xingluo breathed a sigh of relief, and the surrounding magic circle suddenly disappeared. Everyone thought that Xingluo had failed to crack it and was about to take a break when suddenly there was a loud rumbling sound from the door, and the long-sealed door slowly opened.

However, everyone's eyes were not attracted by the opened door at this time. Instead, they stared at Xingluo as if they had seen a demon. "You! You cracked it in just one day? The magic circle? The door?"

Xingluo scratched his head and said slowly: "Is there any problem? Is it too slow? After all, I am still unfamiliar with the magic circle here. If it is a ruin within the territory of Luoshen Empire, I will need half a day at most."

"Half? Half a day?"

At this point, everyone didn't know what to say.

Renata covered her mouth and laughed secretly, her laughter was like a silver bell: "What they mean is that you cracked it too quickly. After all, according to previous experience, it would take at least a month to crack a magic circle of this level."

Xingluo frowned slightly, he wanted to show off, but he didn't want to be in the spotlight. However, since he had already done it, he might as well enjoy the admiring eyes from the people around him. Although their realm was relatively high, when it came to his understanding of magic circles, he was confident that he could still make these people shut up.

Xingluo felt a little sleepy. He had overused his brain just now. However, his mental power was at the level of a mage after all, so he recovered very quickly. Xingluo didn't want to explain too much about this matter, so he walked behind Renata first and said, "Let's go. Your realm is higher than mine, so you go first."

Renata's admiration for Xingluosheng collapsed in an instant. She turned her head away with a blush. She really couldn't bear to watch what Xingluo did. Everyone found it a little funny. They had just accomplished a feat that shocked the Sunset Empire, and now this situation happened again. Everyone was unable to react for a moment.

The vice president shook his head helplessly and walked into the gate of the ruins first. "Come in, it's safe inside."

Everyone hurriedly entered the gate. Inside was an empty square with holes of varying sizes around it. Xingluo's eyes were already able to see in the dark.

Xingluo saw that there were all kinds of bones scattered around, not only human bones, but also many huge monsters. Obviously, something must have happened here, which caused them to die tragically without even being able to run out of the ruins. Xingluo looked at them, each with a twisted and hideous posture, as if they had experienced inhuman torture or great fear.

In the middle of the square is an altar, with several circles of skeletons kneeling around it, as if they were performing some ritual before death.

There was a magic circle diagram engraved on the altar surface, and besides that there was a skeleton lying on it. It was obvious that this person was the one chosen as the object of sacrifice.
