Bai Li Hong Zhuang and her companions gradually moved forward, with all eyes fixed on them. The ruins appeared just as magnificent and splendid as they had seen from the outside, giving off an indescribable sense of grandeur.
Every brick on the ground was intricately patterned, and walking through the palace made them feel like nobility themselves.
"Wow, this ruin is even more magnificent than a palace!" Xia Zhiqing observed her surroundings, marveling at the grandeur that made the palaces she had seen pale in comparison.
Yuan Xiaoman nodded in agreement, her face filled with awe.
"This is what a ruin looks like. It's truly a sight to behold!"
"The owner of this ruin must have been a noble," Bai Li Hong Zhuang exclaimed, her eyes filled with astonishment. She had never encountered such a splendid ruin before.
Every arrangement inside clearly showed meticulous preparation, exuding grandeur and nobility. It was something beloved by nobles, and only someone with genuine aristocratic taste would have such refinement.
Mo Yun Jue glanced around and said, "I agree."
"Master, this ruin is vast, and valuable items should be found deeper inside," Little Black's voice sounded. It had witnessed many ruins before, and they all shared this characteristic.
Bai Li Hong Zhuang nodded slightly, putting away her initial astonishment and speculation, and quickened her steps.
"We should hurry inside. Although our little trick has delayed other cultivators, there are still plenty of fearless ones. It won't be long before someone discovers everything here. By then, all cultivators will rush in, and our chance will be lost," Bai Li Hong Zhuang voiced her thoughts.
Upon hearing this, Xia Zhiqing and the others also nodded in agreement, hastening their steps towards the depths of the ruins.
After walking for a while, a small annex appeared before them. The annex was empty, but two paths emerged on either side.
It was evident that everyone had to choose one of these two paths.
Bai Li Hong Zhuang observed the two paths, but they were identical, like mirrors, even down to the pattern on each brick. It was difficult to discern any difference.
"It seems the owner of this ruin demanded perfection. Every detail here is flawless," Mo Yun Jue commented, his deep, black eyes filled with surprise and confusion upon witnessing this scene.
Such a situation was rarely seen in ordinary circumstances.
Bai Li Hong Zhuang paid close attention to everything and felt a peculiar sensation, unable to articulate what it was exactly, but she sensed that this ruin was different in some way.
"Which path should we take?" Bai Junyu asked.
They didn't have much time to think. Every moment spent here meant their time was reduced.
"The left path!"
"The left path!"
Two voices sounded simultaneously. When Bai Li Hong Zhuang heard someone else making the same judgment as her, she couldn't help but look at them in astonishment.
A faint smile appeared on Mo Yun Jue's lips. "It seems we have the same judgment."
Bai Li Hong Zhuang shot Mo Yun Jue a glare, finding it unbelievable that he would crack jokes at a time like this.
"Well then, let's take the left path," Gong Shaoqing calmly spoke up.
Since both paths appeared identical, they had no objections to randomly choosing one.
