This is the martial arts world, what are you cultivators interfering in?

Chapter 510 Tearing Apart the Heavenly Tribulation

Several hours later, Li Lan and Su Yao finally arrived in front of this huge city.

The walls of this city are covered with white snow, as if it had been accumulated over thousands of years. This snow melts into ice, adding another layer of protection to the city walls.

"who?"

Ahead of Li Lan and his group, at the north gate, a guard spotted them and blocked their path.

"We are wandering cultivators traveling in the Tianhan Continent. We just happened to be passing through this place and wanted to enter the city to do some trading."

The guard in front of him was only at the Divine Servant level, so Li Lan could enter the city silently.

But Li Lan didn't want to do that. There must be countless experts hidden in such a large city. It would be a loss if it caused trouble.

The guard was fairly friendly; he conducted a brief search of Li Lan and his companion before letting them in.

This city is called Winter City, a renowned city on the continent of Tianhan.

Cultivators from within a radius of ten thousand miles will mostly gather here after their travels to trade the treasures they have acquired in exchange for spiritual items that are more suitable for their cultivation.

As soon as Li Lan entered the city, he found it to be much more lively than the outside world.

The streets were bustling with traffic and shouts, mostly from roadside vendors.

Here, one can see many objects containing powerful spiritual energy. Li Lan has even seen some of these spiritual objects before, which appeared in the nest of the Chaos Divine Beast.

However, Li Lan had a mission at the time, so she did not choose to collect it.

However, Li Lan's gains were not small either.

First, he took the medicine island containing the elixir into his own inner world and built a special residence for them, the Heavenly Court.

Then he received the legacy left by that Buddha and gained powerful thunderous power.

Even when facing the powerful figures of the Void God Court, Li Lan was able to put up a fight with this thunderous power, which shows how strong this power is.

Soon, Li Lan and Su Yao suddenly saw someone shouting something ahead.

As the two approached, they realized they were looking at a notice.

When Li Lan saw the contents of the notice, she was immediately taken aback.

No wonder so many people are gathered here; it turns out that something big is about to happen on the Central Plains.

Several months later, an ancient ruin was about to emerge, attracting almost all the top sect prodigies to go there to participate in the battle for the ruin.

The Middle-earth is vast and boundless, and countless secret realms exist within it.

Moreover, on that continent, there are even countless teleportation arrays leading to the void.

These grand formations were almost all passed down from ancient times, so that cultivators in the Azure Heaven Realm could go to that vast and boundless void to train.

This ancient ruin is located in the endless void, and can only be reached through the teleportation array on the Central Continent.

It is said that this site dates back to ancient times and is only opened once every ten thousand years.

Each time it is opened, it attracts all the young supreme beings of the four days.

Those who possess sufficient strength, before reaching the Divine Realm, would fight tooth and nail to get there.

This time was no different; almost all the cultivators in the Azure Heaven Realm were rushing there, afraid of missing the opening of the ruins.

It's not for any other reason than that the last one to obtain the final inheritance in the ruins was the supreme god of the Xuan Tian Realm.

Ten thousand years ago, the Supreme God was just a quasi-god level cultivator, and even his talent could not be considered the strongest among his peers.

However, after the Supreme God obtained the inheritance of that ancient ruin, he broke through from the Quasi-God realm in just a thousand years without encountering any bottlenecks, until he became the Supreme God who ruled the entire Xuan Tian Realm.

The rumor caused quite a stir for four days, which is why this ancient ruin attracted almost all the young supreme beings to participate.

Even if they cannot obtain the final inheritance, if they can obtain some extraordinary opportunities there, they will surely be able to rise quickly and become important figures who rule over a region.

"The temptation of becoming the supreme god, no wonder it attracts so many onlookers."

Li Lan and Su Yao stood on the outermost edge to watch, because the crowd in front was too dense.

From this notice, Li Lan also learned that the teleportation array on the Central Continent could not accommodate too many people.

According to current estimates, it can only accommodate a maximum of 100,000 cultivators at the same time.

There are quite a few cultivators in the Azure Heaven Realm, with at least a million cultivators at the Quasi-God level.

Therefore, all cultivators who wish to participate in the ancient ruins must compete for a spot, and this applies to every continent.

There are still about six months before the start of the battle for the ruins. During this time, they will go through each stage of the duel to compete for the top 100,000 spots to participate in the battle for the ruins.

Upon receiving this news, Li Lan was also quite excited.

After all, if one could obtain the final inheritance within those ruins, it could pave the way for the future and might even lead to the ultimate godhood.

Faced with such an enormous temptation, not only Li Lan, but anyone would be tempted.

However, the selection process has not yet begun, so there is no need to be too anxious.

After reading the notice, Li Lan and Su Yao continued walking forward, intending to find a quiet inn to rest.

But just then, they saw a group of people gathered around something in a corner of the street.

Listening carefully, Li Lan noticed that muffled groans seemed to be coming from the open space they were surrounding.

Li Lan sensed the past and finally discovered the situation there.

It turned out that a boy dressed in tattered clothes was being bullied by a group of cultivators.

Seeing this, Li Lan sighed and walked straight over.

Seeing this, Su Yao followed Li Lan there as well.

"stop!"

Hearing Li Lan's stern shout, the group finally stopped what they were doing.

However, they did not release the boy on the ground. One of them even ran to Li Lan's side and whispered to him:

"Brother, you'd better leave this to your own devices. We're acting on behalf of Heaven."

hiss~

Upon hearing this, Li Lan frowned and said coldly:

"Does a group of people bullying a child constitute upholding justice?"

In his observation, the group of people who beat the boy were all cultivators of considerable skill, with the lowest level of cultivation having reached the Divine Disciple realm.

Just as Li Lan was about to observe the cultivation level of the boy on the ground, his expression suddenly changed.

Because he discovered that he couldn't see through the boy's cultivation level.

In Li Lan's perception, the boy on the ground seemed to be just an ordinary person, without any divine power fluctuations.

In this vast Winter City, where most people come to trade, how could there be such a mortal boy?

This puzzled Li Lan.

Seemingly sensing Li Lan's doubts, the cultivator who had just been advising Li Lan immediately said:

"Hey buddy, I bet you figured it out too, right?"

"He is not an ordinary boy at all. According to our deduction, he should be a monster that bewitches people's minds."

“A few days ago, my brothers and I were hunting on a snowy plain outside Winterfell.”

"Just as we were about to successfully hunt down a few snow wolves, we suddenly felt a dizzying sensation, and our heads felt like they were about to explode."

"By the time we brothers recovered, not only had the snow wolf disappeared, but one of our brothers had also been carried away by it."

"And this monster appeared in our territory where we were hunting snow wolves."

"However, because we brothers hadn't fully recovered yet, he got away before we could catch him."

"When we arrived in Winter City, we discovered that this guy was hiding inside the city."

"That's why we wanted to rid the people of this scourge and eliminate this monster."

Upon hearing this news, Li Lan was also somewhat stunned.

Judging from the man's expression, he didn't seem to be lying.

But how could such an ordinary boy possibly disturb a group of cultivators with such high levels of cultivation?

Li Lan decided it was best to ask them clearly to avoid harming innocent people.

Li Lan casually tossed a few spiritual items from his storage space and handed them to the people in front of him, sending them all away.

After the group left, Li Lan and Su Yao approached the boy on the ground.

"Don't hit me! Don't hit me!"

Upon seeing the two approach, the boy covered his head and begged for mercy.

Upon closer inspection, Li Lan discovered that the boy was filthy and his clothes were tattered.

There was no divine power emanating from him; apart from his unusually silver vertical pupils, he was no different from an ordinary person.

It's unclear how the boy managed to endure such harsh weather and make his way into Winter City.

"Little friend, we didn't mean to hurt you. We've already driven those people away."

Su Yao squatted down and patted the boy's head as she spoke.

Upon seeing Su Yao's stunningly beautiful face, the young man seemed to realize that they weren't bad people, and thus stopped begging for mercy.

He looked at Su Yao and Li Lan, his misty eyes filled with pleading.

"Big brother, big sister, can you take me home? I'm lost."

Seeing the boy's appearance, Li Lan did not treat him as a monster.

Even though the boy's true identity was extraordinary, he was so weak that he could not pose any threat to the two of them.

"Let's go, let's get him away from here first."

Li Lan spoke to Su Yao, and then the two of them led the boy away from the street.

Li Lan decided to let the boy rest for a few days first, and then send him home after her own injuries had fully recovered.

There are many villages bordering the city of Winterfell, and this boy must have come from one of them, but got lost and ended up here.

Along the way, after Su Yao asked around, she finally learned the boy's name: Bai Ze.

The boy seemed to be mentally unstable; apart from knowing his name, he did not know where his home was.

It is said that Bai Ze can sense the location of his hometown, and if he leaves this Winter City, he can confirm a general direction.

The city of Frostwinter contains a magic array set up by a powerful being at the Divine Realm level, which provides a certain degree of isolation from the outside world.

This isolation not only prevents wild monsters from sensing the presence of this place, thus avoiding invasion by monsters.

It can also shield you from the prying eyes of powerful individuals, making it extremely safe within the city.

Based on the current situation, Li Lan believes that Bai Ze's true form is very likely a demonic beast.

However, Bai Ze probably doesn't have any divine power fluctuations because he is still in his infancy.

After finding an inn in the west of the city, Li Lan handed Bai Ze over to Su Yao, asking her to settle him in.
