Driven out of my home in the apocalypse, I built a fortress in return.

Chapter 399 Ancient Sect Ruins!

"This ruin is too big, and there are too many obstructions. Let's just fly up into the sky to see it." After flying at low altitude for several miles, Xiao Yu realized that this ruin was too big and too vast.

The geographical environment is very similar to that of the ancient city outside.

Everywhere was yellow sand, with sand and stones flying everywhere.

The biggest difference between this place and the City of Ruins is that it is like a demon realm, with gusts of black wind blowing.

Moreover, a significant amount of the black gas turned into liquid.

These liquid black gases, seemingly alive, swirled and flowed in mid-air.

Xiao Yu flew for several miles, keeping his energy perception talent active the whole time, but gained nothing.

All I could see was... ruins and rubble.

With this thought in mind, Xiao Yu appeared thousands of meters in the air.

With his current strength, he doesn't need to fly at all; he can stand in mid-air.

The atmosphere at high altitudes is different from that at ground level; the black fog is very thin, and visibility is much greater.

Xiao Yu brushed the crystal bracelet on his left hand, and with a thought, a large support appeared.

This is a large telescope he made when he was bored; it can easily see hundreds of miles away.

"All around are ruins... So quickly, people have already started fighting? Ha!" Xiao Yu squinted, looking around through a large telescope, but he couldn't see the edge of the ruins at all, nor could he see anything of value.

I did see quite a few people who had just come in.

Most of these people come from various factions, and some are lone wolves.

Meanwhile, dozens of miles away, it seemed that someone had discovered something.

Then... these people started looting the treasure and chasing after whoever got it.

"It seems these people haven't listened to Lord Xueye's advice at all!" Xiao Yu sneered inwardly as he watched these people fight each other for the treasure.

The end times are tough; everyone is living in a precarious situation.

However... the most terrifying enemy is not the ferocious beasts or the monsters in the spatial rifts, but our fellow human beings.

Most people, in order to survive and become stronger, will stop at nothing and kill countless people.

Those who ultimately survive and become regional overlords are the best of the best.

After all, most of those who obtained treasures or inheritances became powerful figures in their own right.

When they actually encounter treasure, they don't care about their fellow humans; killing and robbing for it is commonplace!

Right now, none of these people are taking Lord Xueye's words seriously at all.

Xiao Yu didn't bother with this dog-eat-dog situation and continued to observe through his binoculars.

"There is a large city in that direction."

After looking for a while longer, Xiao Yu finally noticed a large building.

"The distance is still not far enough! It becomes very blurry beyond 100 kilometers! Let's improve it again, at least it should be able to see clearly a thousand miles away, that would be good."

Xiao Yu put away the binoculars and let the crow enter the crystal bracelet.

He himself transformed into a streak of light and flew straight towards the large city.

At a speed of nine steps, it took less than half an hour to reach the destination.

"Is it an ancient city? The architectural style... it's actually fantasy? Sure enough, countless millennia have passed since my past life..."

Xiao Yu scanned his surroundings; it was very similar to the fantasy sects in anime and games from his previous life.

But now, all that remains are vast ruins and countless fragments of various weapons...

"Besides, there doesn't seem to be anything of value here..."

Xiao Yu activated his energy perception and scanned almost the entire city.

However, nothing was found.

The only valuable item is a broken mural with some indistinct swirling patterns.

Xiao Yu guessed that it was a rift in another world's space.

Many strange and grotesque monsters emerged from there and attacked humans relentlessly.

At that time, the human forces had cultivated for a long time and were extremely powerful.

However, when faced with monsters emerging from spatial rifts, they were almost completely crushed.

"Let's take another look. If not, we'll continue exploring... wait..." Xiao Yu flew into the air again to continue inspecting everything in the city. He wanted to see if this sect had any inherited cultivation techniques or anything like that.

However, instead of finding the inheritance of the cultivation technique, they saw a group of shadowy monsters.

A humanoid monster similar to the monster created by the Black Soil City Lord.

However, these monsters crawled quickly on all fours.

At this moment, hundreds of monsters are frantically chasing a black-robed human, driving him into a desperate situation.

"Damn it! Why are there so many monsters? We can't kill them all!" Luo Xia rushed through the ruins, his eyes filled with panic and resentment.

Around him were dozens, even hundreds, of shadowy monsters.

Upon entering the ruins, he discovered its strangeness.

This place seems to be an ancient cultivation sect.

However, after the invasion from another world, the members of the sect were either killed or turned into monsters.

The monsters still lurking here are members of this sect.

These people had pitch-black eyes and skin as black as coal, making them look extremely ferocious.

Moreover, the weakest are at the second or third tier, and the slightly stronger ones are at the fourth or fifth tier.

Hundreds of shadowy monsters were approaching.

Rorschach gritted his teeth, pulled out fist-sized black balls from the animal skin bag, and threw them out violently.

The black ball fell into the monster horde and exploded violently.

In just a moment, more than a dozen monsters were affected.

The weakest, only a few at the second or third tier, were killed instantly by the explosion.

The rest were blown more than ten meters away.

Luo Xia threw out black balls, killing and injuring dozens of monsters.

However, these monsters had completely lost their minds and were utterly fearless.

After getting up, he seemed to become even more frenzied, roaring as he continued to chase after Luo Xia.

Moreover, the series of explosions seemed to have awakened a large number of slumbering monsters.

From the ruins, hundreds of monsters crawled out rapidly.

At this moment, Luo Xia had already used up all the black balls and could only flee in panic.

However, before he could escape very far, he was surrounded by a dense horde of monsters.

The moment the two sides made contact, his black robe was torn to shreds, and his body was covered in blood.

"Am I going to die here?" As the dark shadows rushed towards him, Luo Xia was filled with despair and helplessness, and could only bitterly say, "My people, I'm sorry! I've done my best!"

Over the years, he has ventured into historical sites more than once.

All they wanted was to find ancient, inherited techniques so that their people could become stronger and survive.

Countless times, I've survived by sheer luck, but this time...

"Grandpa Lily, I'm sorry! I can't be there to watch you grow up anymore, but... I believe you'll be safe in Dragon City." Before being overwhelmed by monsters, the only thing on Luo Xia's mind was his obedient and lovely granddaughter.

Fortunately...

He was, after all, a peak seventh-tier expert. Over the years, he had traveled all over the country, hunted down many ferocious beasts, and accumulated some energy stones, enough for his granddaughter to live a carefree life in Dragon City.

Moreover, he had also learned about it.

The granddaughter is only eleven or twelve years old.

However, you can also find a job.

That way, I can live in Dragon City.

Don't worry, you won't die!
