After Liu Ching and her party rushed into the massive ruined city, Mu Chen, Nine Nether, and the siblings set off directly, transforming into four streams of light and rushing into the ruined city.

When the four of them rushed into the ruined city, a feeling of vastness came upon them, and their eyes seemed to be in a trance, as if a vast and indescribable ancient city had appeared before them.

In the city, the buildings were so tall, they soared into the clouds. An aura of desolation permeated the space, as countless huge figures whistled across the sky, and the air was filled with the roar of the animals, shaking the heavens and the earth.

The roar of the beasts echoed in their ears, and spiritual light glittered in their eyes. Suddenly, the vast boundless imagery disappeared, and the city before them was once again in ruins. Dilapidated scenes filled their eyes.

“It’s a pity that such a great city has fallen.” Mu Chen lamented that such a magnificent city was the first one that he had seen in years. By comparison, the cities under the Daluo Territory were far from impressive.

“After all, this place was once a top fortress of the Land of Divine Beasts.” Nine Nether nodded. If they really wanted to compare the strengths, even the Nine Netherbird Clan could not compare to this once Great Desolated City, which showed that this majestic city had a terribly powerful strength.

“But, even with such a powerful strength, its fate of destruction was still unavoidable.” Mu Chen sighed softly. The Extraterritorial Race was indeed a master of destruction for the entire Great Thousand World.

As the two were talking, their figures did not stop moving at all, and streams of light flew across the sky, rapidly heading toward the center of the huge ruined city.

In that direction, they were all aware of an extreme fluctuation of ancient desolation, and apparently, in this ruined city, only the remnant of the Primordial Body-refining Tower probably possessed any power.

“Let’s go!”

A glint flashed in the four’s eyes, and immediately their speed soared as they cut through the space. After about an hour, their speed slowed down gradually.

Whoosh!

The four figures appeared on the top of a broken stone tower, their eyes were looking straight ahead at the flat earth. The ground there was not as shattered as the rest of the city, but was rather well-preserved. This was apparently because of the mottled ancient stone pagoda, which was standing quietly in the center of the piece of land.

The stone pagoda was dark gray, and there seemed to be extremely ancient runes on it, as if they were carved there naturally. It stood there, and did not seem particularly majestic, but when they glanced at it, their breathing stopped, and a terrible pressure swept in, making their flesh ache.

“Is that the Primordial Body-refining Tower?”

Looking at the ancient stone pagoda, he felt the pressure rolling in like the tide. His expression grew passionate, and even before he entered it, he could feel the flesh and blood boiling in his body. The feeling made him almost want to rush in with reckless abandon!

However, he finally suppressed the idea forcibly, as the mottled pagoda before him, although it seemed that it had been eroded through the years, still had a terrifying nature to it. If Mu Chen broke in forcefully, he might be reduced to ashes instantly.

“This Primordial Body-refining Tower, even a Lower Earthly Sovereign would not dare to forcibly intrude, let alone you.” Nine Nether, who was beside Mu Chen, seemed to know what he was thinking and immediately reminded him.

Upon hearing this, Mu Chen was shocked. Although he could feel the horror of the Body-refining Tower, he still didn’t expect that even an Earthly Sovereign would not dare rush into it. It seemed that he still was underestimating such Primordial Artifacts.

However, it was also probable that these kinds of Body-refining Tower, in those primordial times, were built by these top forces, using an immense amount of resources.

“This Primordial Body-refining Tower has attracted many people here, indeed.” Mo Feng’s gaze shifted away from the tower, as he commented calmly.

As Mo Feng’s gaze swept around, Mu Chen was already aware that there were also fierce gazes directed towards them. Mu Chen’s eyebrows twitched slightly, following several particularly fierce gazes. He then looked up and saw four figures standing on the ruined mountain peak.
