The Feng Zun Journey
The Ninth Star Ruins
"Little flatbirds, it looks like you won't cooperate unless I conquer you first," Feng Zun said softly.
On the branch of a giant tree, the gray sparrow held its belly with its beak, and laughed out loud. “You are just an ant, but you really know how to boast! Aren't you afraid of being humiliated by your sharp words?"
Swoshis!
Even before he finished speaking, a transparent sword qi flashed through the air, and slashed towards the gray sparrows in the distance.
When he saw the power brought by the transparent sword qi, the sparrow immediately realized that it was bad, he shouted and immediately moved aside in an instant. That sword qi just barely split its wings and crashed into the tree branch behind it.
What was surprising was, the branch was still very sturdy. Regardless of how much sword qi power Feng Zun unleashed, it could not even scratch its branches.
The grey sparrow stabilized himself on the ground and said angrily, “Young man, do you not have manners? How dare you attack this noble one?”
Feng Zun said calmly, "If you are truly capable, why bother dodging?"
In his heart, Feng Zun was actually somewhat surprised. The grey sparrow had incredible speed, it could dodge so quickly, that it looked like teleportation.
“I just don't want to attack ants like you. If I am really serious, let alone you, even I can destroy an Immortal God in the blink of an eye!”
The grey sparrow said with great pride, as if no one else was as strong as him in this world. He did not even take the existence of an Immortal God seriously.
Feng Zun was not wanting to talk nonsense with the little bird, but as he was about to attack again, the grey sparrow shouted,
"Enough, enough!"
"A cultivator like us should always cherish peace, we should not quarrel with each other. Given that you are too young, naturally a lot of knowledge that you do not understand, I will be compassionate and answer some questions for you. Tell me! What do you want to know?"
"So you just changed your mind?"
Feng Zun smiled faintly, but he did not bother to pursue the matter.
"First, tell me why you ambushed me."
The grey sparrow thought for a moment, then said guiltily, "I just want to test you, that's all."
Feng Zun whispered, "Shameful.!"
The grey sparrow seemed to be losing her temper, but when she was just about to say something, she stopped and let out a cold snort, "You're just a junior, so I won't continue this matter."
"Then?"
Feng Zun again said, “I also have no time to waste with a little sparrow like you. From now on, when I ask, then you should answer. Don't talk nonsense, If you're still wasting my time, don't blame me for being rude."
Sparrows : "....."
The gray sparrow was stunned for a moment. After a while, he took a deep breath and restrained his anger. "Alright, ask!”
“Why did you kidnap Miss Dou Nie?”
"I just want to ask someone a few questions, to understand the situation in the outside world," the sparrow said.
Feng Zun pondered for a moment. "Does that mean you haven't left this place in a long time?"
Feng Zun did not suppress that question. "Where is this place?"
The gray sparrows let out a strange and irritating burst of laughter. "Interesting! you opened Mo Tianyuan's closed door to arrive here, but you don't even know where this is.... Is it in the entire world right now, all juniors are that stupid?"
Feng Zun looked at the bird coldly. “My patience is very limited.”
The bird's expression froze, and he muttered, “I was just joking. Don't be so serious! If not for that promise I made, I would have killed you in the first place!”
When he saw that Feng Zun's expression was still strange, he hurriedly added, "This is the Ninth Star Ruins, or as it was once known as the Ancient Chaos Hole."
The Ninth Star Ruins?
The Ancient Chaos Hole?
Feng Zun's heart trembled.
This was the first time he had heard the name "Ninth Star Ruins", but he had heard of the Ancient Chaos Hole.
Rumor has it that the core of Luo Mainland is hidden within the Ancient Chaos Hole. That is, it is the home of the Luo Veins.
Fifty thousand years ago, an Imperial Apex Realm cultivator ventured into the Ancient Chaos Hole and opened a mysterious seal. From then on the power of the Ancient Guarding Energy then exploded from the Ancient Chaos Hole, and swept across the Luo Mainland.
This was why most believed that the Ancient Chaos Hole was also the source of the Ancient Guardians Energy.
According to the grey sparrows, this floating land is the Ancient Chaos Hole!
Of course Feng Zun was surprised!
After thinking for a moment, he asked, "Vena Luo or Mainland Luo core, is it hidden here?"
"That's right," said the gray sparrow.
Feng Zun scanned the area, but his gaze finally returned to the gigantic ancient tree with branches laden with star corpses.
"Is that all?"
"You're not entirely stupid" said the gray sparrow. "If that ancient tree hadn't protected this place for the past fifty thousand years, the Star Storm from outer space that invaded the world would have long since destroyed the Luo Land!"
Feng Zun's gaze focused. He finally began to understand. “So so..”
If the gray sparrows were telling the truth, the dead stars that filled the branches of this tree were, the remnants of the battle while fighting the Falling Star Storm from space!
The fragmented star corpses that floated above Lotus Mountain, as well as those in the underground world most likely also came from that Falling Star Storm.
With all his knowledge, Feng Zun naturally realized that when the world faced a catastrophe, the core forces of that world would instinctively attempt to ward off the impending calamity.
It's like a clash with the basic laws that exist in the world. When the source of the world is destroyed, the world is destined to perish with it, resulting in total destruction. Therefore, the core of the world would naturally struggle to maintain it.
However, Feng Zun would not have expected that a world like the Luo Mainland, which was home to many Immortal God-level orthodoxies in the past, would face an oversized MalapeTaka!
