Following in the direction of Xiao Qi's map, the two of them also rushed towards the core region of the ancient ruins, which was a city.

Along the way, Qin Shaojie also had a whole new level of respect for Xiao Qi. It had to be said that although Xiao Qi's realm wasn't high, her methods of concealing her presence was quite impressive. In order to avoid any trouble along the way, the two of them had completely hidden their presence. Qin Shaojie naturally had done quite a bit more with regards to restraining his aura, but Xiao Qi was actually not bad either. Furthermore, it could be seen that under the concealment of his aura, he actually did not show any signs of exhaustion.

Regarding this, Qin Shaojie could only attribute it to the impressiveness of the three great sects. There were almost no weak students in the sect.

Qin Shaojie was not a talkative person, but in order to kill time on the road, in addition to Xiao Qi's innocent eyes that were filled with killing intent, he was still unable to resist this kind of gaze, which made Qin Shaojie tell him something from time to time. Of course, Qin Shaojie wasn't talking about matters within the Great Yan Dynasty. He had been to too many places in his previous life, and even though his memories weren't complete, he could casually find a place to talk with Xiao Qi for three days and three nights.

But more of what he said was about the beautiful places, the intoxicating sights.

Once, Qin Shaojie had thought that after he had done all that he needed to do in this life, he would be able to find a paradise and live a leisurely life of enjoying life in the south mountains under the fences of the chrysanthemums. That kind of comfort and freedom from strife might be what everyone longed for.

Xiao Qi did not care whether what Qin Shaojie said was true or not, nor did she care how he knew it. In short, she liked the current situation.

On the way, they also encountered disciples from the three great sects. Most of them were rather high-profile and did not bother to conceal their auras as they walked towards the city at an extremely fast pace.

When he saw the disciples of the Nether Sect, Qin Shaojie had originally planned to send Xiao Qi over, but he had clearly separated from Qin Shaojie before he had entered the city, so Qin Shaojie could only sigh about this matter, he did not know what Xiao Qi was thinking, he was not a disciple of one of the three major sects, if others were to find out, it would bring about quite a bit of trouble, and it would even attract the combined forces of the disciples of the three major sects.

But if Xiao Qi was here, even if Qin Shaojie was wearing the mask, the people in the sect would only treat his as a member of the Nether Sect. Even if he wasn't a disciple of the Nether Sect s, he would at least make the other party think that it was a White Night Sect or a Qingyang Sect.

After all, the disciples here were quite proud and aloof, so it was normal for them to do some incredible things. As for who would care about who this Mask Man was in the end? After all, if one were to take ten thousand steps back, many disciples would die here.

Seeing Xiao Qi acting like this, Qin Shaojie also decided to follow him. After all, to him, Xiao Qi was a Good thing.

This caused Qin Shaojie and Little Seven to not encounter any trouble on their way either. In merely two days of effort, they had managed to faintly reach the end of their line of sight, where they could see a building that looked extremely grand.

Qin Shaojie was immediately overjoyed, and then, he brought Xiao Qi and carefully went towards the city.

As they got closer, even with plants and vegetation blocking their way, the building which revealed an extremely strong sense of antiquity completely appeared before Qin Shaojie and Xiao Qi. This building had more than ten times the grand Lingyun City compared to the Great Yan Dynasty in the outside world? Even the dynasty was inferior.

The city walls in this area were hundreds of feet tall and their heights were even higher than some mountain peaks. Who knew how many years this city wall had been under his control, but there was no moss on its surface. If one looked carefully, one would see that not even a crack could be seen on the city wall …

Even though they were separated by a distance, with a single glance, Qin Shaojie could tell that the city walls that stretched far beyond a hundred kilometers were not constructed out of ordinary rocks. They were specially made for Black Demon Stones. Moreover, it could only be born around the Heaven and Earth profound veins. After being refined by the lava spewed out by the volcano, it was finally barely able to form. To form a surface that was smooth and hard, one needed to continuously break through the Earth Origin Stage level.

From this, it could be seen that Black Demon Stones were originally quite expensive items. Even a sect might not be able to afford them.

However, in this place, the city walls that were hundreds of feet high and spread out for more than a hundred miles seemed to rise up from the ground from afar, cutting the entire land into two parts. ”Almost all of the engineering projects of this level were built with Black Demon Stones.

Qin Shaojie himself did not know how many Black Demon Stones this city would need to reach in order to reach this step.

At this moment, he finally understood why the ancient ruins were under the joint control of the three great sects. Just the value of the Black Demon Stones in this city alone would be astronomical, and even if he retreated ten thousand steps, he would not have any other treasures. Taking back the city wall would be enough for the three great sects to build an extraordinary defensive door.

After all, the use of the Black Demon Stones were extremely powerful. They were capable of radiating a certain degree of profound energy, and were also very strong, so it was possible that a Black Demon Stone could withstand three full power attacks from the Three Spiritual Realms. Even a warrior of the Spirit Sea Realm would find it difficult to destroy a Black Demon Stone at once.

And even if one used the entirety of their Earthly Yuan Stage expert, they might not even be able to destroy this wall. These city walls were not rare in ancient times, but most of them were used as a wild tide for magical beasts, often appearing in the southwest region.

However, as time passed, the Beast Race retreated, and the humans took control of the entire Tian Yuan Continent. As a result, Black Demon Stones were mainly used to refine weapons or small scale defenses.
