Chapter 60 Hidden Dangers
As soon as Shi Hao made his move, the group of ancient remnants who had been eyeing the horn for a long time also began to pursue it.
All living beings knew that the horn was no ordinary object; the sound it made when played in the wind was like a spell, causing one's soul to tremble. It was undoubtedly a rare treasure.
As the number of pursuing creatures gradually increased, one of the large red birds on Shi Hao's side suddenly cried out, using one of its wings as a hand to lift a black pot and throw it forcefully at the beast's horn.
"boom!"
It actually got hit, but the purple beast horn remained unharmed, its radiance shining even brighter as it steamed.
Instead, the black pot was shaken open and crashed into a magnificent, collapsed palace in the distance, sending dust billowing into the sky.
"Let's all join forces!"
Seeing this, Shi Hao and his underlings attacked together. In an instant, runes filled the sky and enveloped the beast horn.
At the same time, they rushed forward at top speed to encircle and seize this magical artifact.
"Sizzle!"
As if sensing something was amiss, the divine light emanating from the purple beast horn suddenly surged, becoming even more dazzling. It then soared directly into the dark sky, its speed astounding.
"Snapped!"
But just as the beast horn was about to disappear from Shi Hao and the others' sight, a tall figure suddenly appeared in front of the horn and snatched it into his pocket.
It was Shi An!
"So strong!"
Seeing that Shi An had subdued the purple beast horn so easily, the pursuing creatures were all shocked and stopped in their tracks, their eyes filled with astonishment.
All living beings knew very well that the beast horn was no ordinary object. The purple divine light flowing on it could make people feel a sense of dread even from a distance. They never expected that it would be so vulnerable in front of Shi An.
Even Shi Hao and his gang of underlings were dumbfounded, their shock beyond words.
Shi Hao stared wide-eyed at Shi An, his face full of disbelief, and asked, "Brother An, how did you do that?"
"Let's keep looking for other opportunities."
However, Shi An did not answer his curiosity. He simply chuckled and headed towards another set of ruins.
Seeing this, Shi Hao and the others had no choice but to suppress their curiosity and follow Shi An's footsteps.
And so, the group continued to venture deeper into the ruins, during which magical artifacts kept appearing, sparking waves of competition.
But as long as Shi An was around, those treasures would always obediently fall into their hands, making other beings extremely envious, until...
"Buzz!"
The void trembled slightly, and a streak of light appeared like a silver river, sweeping straight toward Shi An's waist, as if to cut him in two.
Unfortunately, although the sword was incredibly sharp and terrifying, it did not cause any damage to Shi An, nor did it even change his expression. He simply stretched out his right hand to block the sword light just as it was about to hit him.
"·······"
In an instant, the sword light vanished without a trace, as if swallowed by something.
"Buzz~"
But in the next instant, a sword light of the same kind suddenly appeared in the direction from which the sword light came, and slashed down with a roar!
"Bang!"
The next moment, a young man who looked to be about twenty-five or twenty-six years old rushed out from the middle with disheveled hair.
Clearly, this was the same person who had just launched a sneak attack on Shi An, but ultimately he suffered the consequences of underestimating Shi An.
At this moment, he was coughing up blood incessantly, and his body was almost severed due to Shi An's sudden counterattack.
Having suffered such a severe blow, the young man had no intention of staying any longer. After taking a deep look at Shi An, he gritted his teeth, took out a divine talisman from his pocket, stuck it to the sole of his foot, and transformed into a stream of light, disappearing from the earth.
"What a powerful divine talisman! This is a product of ancient times, it must have been obtained from these ruins, it's priceless!"
"This kind of talisman has a limited number of uses; he won't be able to use it many times."
Upon seeing this, some knowledgeable ancient beings immediately began to explain the facts, while marveling at the good fortune of the man in the green robe who had actually found something in the ruins.
"Damn, how can he be so strong?!"
On the other side, the man in the green robe who had escaped was cursing silently under the watchful eyes of his companions. However, his current appearance was both ferocious and wretched, making him unbearable to look at.
However, in contrast to the green-robed man's unwillingness, the old man beside him calmly said, "Don't think that just because you're a sealer you can kill that child. He's not easy to deal with."
Upon hearing this, a ruthless glint flashed in the eyes of the man in the green robe, and he immediately suggested, "In that case, we should go and kill them together. We should not only destroy him, but also wipe out those ancient remnants and seize their treasures. After all, killing them is definitely easier than searching in the ruins."
However, the others did not agree with his suggestion. One of the elders frowned and said in a deep voice, "Those remnant species are all of great importance. Killing one or two in secret might not be a big deal, but if we kill them all and it gets seen and spread, it could bring great disaster to our clan!"
That's right, this group all came from the same family, the Kun Clan, one of the four great clans that Shi Hao had extorted in the Void God Realm.
"Are we just going to sit here and wait? That kid and his companions have clearly gotten a lot of treasures. Are we just going to watch them leave?"
The man in the green robe looked resentful, his tone filled with anger and jealousy.
The old man remained calm, gently shaking his head with a profound gaze: "No rush. This is, after all, an ancient ruin, where danger and opportunity coexist. Although they have obtained many treasures, they may not be able to leave alive. We just need to wait patiently and find the right opportunity to strike."
"You've lost your chance!"
But just then, an untimely voice suddenly rang out, and then the group of people suddenly felt a blur before their eyes, and the seal on their bodies seemed to be disturbed and broken, and their cultivation was fully restored.
However, this situation did not make them happy. Instead, they all looked terrified and hurriedly tried to seal themselves again.
Because in this Hundred Broken Mountains, once the sealed cultivators regain their cultivation, they will face a fatal consequence—death!
Unfortunately, no matter how fast they were, they couldn't outrun the power of the rules of Hundred Broken Mountains. Just as they were trying to seal themselves, a powerful force surged in from all directions, like an invisible giant net, binding them tightly.
This is a unique restriction of Hundred Broken Mountains. Once triggered, no one can escape unless they have extraordinary abilities.
"No!"
Feeling the terrifying pressure on their bodies, the green-robed man and the old man's expressions changed drastically. Although their cultivation had been restored, they were as insignificant and powerless as ants in the face of this power.
As time went by, the power of the rules of Hundred Broken Mountains grew stronger and stronger.
"what!"
In the end, accompanied by mournful screams, one Kun clan powerhouse after another was devoured by this power, their physical bodies and primordial spirits turning into nothingness.
Just then, Shi An's figure slowly descended from the sky. After collecting the spiritual materials and treasures left behind by the others, he returned to Shi Hao and the others and continued to explore the area.
