Chapter 277: The Temple of Antiquity, Is He Lin Yan?
The massive mountain peaks, all shattered!
What was once a flat surface, now filled with bumps and protrusions.
Giant cracks extended across the land, huge bottomless holes gaping open.
Seeing this scene, Lin Dong and the others were dumbfounded. They stood frozen in place for a long time before finally saying, "What... what kind of formation is this?"
Lin Yan smiled indifferently after hearing them, "Just a little trick I learned recently."
Upon hearing this response, Lin Dong and the others were dumbfounded once again. However, after thinking about it for a moment, they knew that Lin Yan often did these things. Although Lin Yan said they were just "little tricks," he could easily remove them. They had simply gotten used to it.
"I didn't expect Brother Lin Yan to secretly learn something new again, and it's so powerful!" Mo Ling was amazed to see the scene.
Lin Yan simply smiled and said, "It's nothing much, just a small formation."
Lin Dong and the others could only smile shyly after hearing this, then asked, "Where are we going next?"
"We're going to the Temple of Antiquity to participate in the Ancient Treasure," said Lin Yan calmly, then led everyone there at full speed.
The Temple of Antiquity was where many forces gathered. Among them were the Honghuang Dynasty and the Youquan Dynasty, both with an ancient key. However, there were also other high-level dynasties that had issued arrest warrants against Lin Yan, due to the two ancient keys he held.
One of the ancient keys Lin Yan possessed he had obtained earlier, while the other he had obtained by destroying the Devil Rock Dynasty. This caused other forces to also take an interest in Lin Yan.
After several dozen minutes passed, Lin Yan and the others arrived at the Temple of Antiquity. It was the place where the Ancient Treasure would be opened, so practically all the dynasties in the northwest, if they had the capability, rushed to come.
"The attraction of the Ancient Treasure is really terrifying, so many dynasties are here!" Lin Yan looked at the large crowds moving back and forth in the vast temple and frowned slightly. "There must be at least two-thirds of all the people in the northwest gathered here."
"I didn't expect the attraction of the Ancient Treasure to be so strong. It's amazing to see so many dynasties here!" Mo Ling was amazed to see the scene in front of him.
"It's true. After all, there are countless treasures here," Lin Yan replied with a smile.
Mo Ling and the others nodded after hearing this, and simply observed the scene inside the city.
After a moment of observation, Lin Yan waved his hand and led everyone into the city.
Lin Yan and the others were surprised to see the multitude of people inside the city. It was crowded with people, much livelier than their own Yan City.
Upon entering the city, they saw a group of people gathered in an open area, where several warriors were practicing.
The warriors watching the fight approached, cheering on those who were fighting.
"It seems quite peaceful here too," commented Lin Dong as he watched.
Lin Yan simply smiled and said nothing, because as soon as he entered the city, he felt a presence slowly approaching them.
As Lin Yan and the others explored, about ten figures appeared in front of Lin Yan. He whispered, "Can't you restrain yourselves?"
A man dressed in a grayish-brown robe among the ten people smiled towards Lin Yan and said, "Brother, if you give us one of your ancient keys, I can assure you that no one will bother you in this city."
"That's the Desert Dynasty! Did you not expect to see them here too?"
"The Desert Dynasty is one of the high-level dynasties. It is said that the leader has reached the Nirvana realm, and those who follow him are also at that level. Their strength is quite impressive."
Seeing the individual in front of him who seemed to be seeking the key, Lin Yan simply smiled, ignoring him completely. After all, for Lin Yan, those in the Nirvana realm were just toys he could easily crush with one hand; it wasn't worth his time to deal with them.
The members of the Desert Dynasty, upon seeing Lin Yan ignore them, instantly became enraged. One of them threw a punch towards Lin Yan and his group.
Watching this, Lin Yan said, "Do you think you're worthy to face me?" He then threw out a palm, not only breaking the punch but also knocking the warriors to the ground, blood at the corners of their mouths.
It was clear that Lin Yan had no intention of harming them. He simply knocked them down.
Lin Yan clearly had no intention of causing trouble from the start, but those people weren't going to let the two keys in Lin Yan's possession go easily.
So, he stood up and pointed to the sky, saying, "If you can overcome this formation, I'll give you the keys."
Upon hearing this, the warriors rushed towards the formation. The leader of the Desert Dynasty thought to himself upon seeing this, "This doesn't seem right. It can't be that simple..."
Some warriors of the Desert Dynasty charged into the formation recklessly, unaware that it was all part of Lin Yan's plan. Thus, not only did he not have to act himself, but the Desert Dynasty members also rushed into the formation enticed by the temptation of the keys.
When the warriors entered the formation, countless spiritual swords descended from the sky, fiercely piercing those warriors tempted by the keys. They screamed in pain as the swords struck them, unable to escape and only being harvested by the swords.
After the screams, the warriors perished. The leader of the Desert Dynasty, upon seeing his suspicions confirmed, spoke angrily, "I will make you pay for this today!"
Then, he concentrated his energy into the palm of his hand, passed by the sword formation, and headed straight towards Lin Yan with a strong blow. Lin Yan, upon seeing this, calmly extended his hand, a faint flame floating above his palm.
When the careless individual arrived, Lin Yan grabbed his head with one hand. Applying a little force, the individual fell to the ground, clutching his head and screaming in pain.
But Lin Yan had no intention of stopping there. He applied more force, and a fireball enveloped the individual's head. Under the scorching heat, the flesh separated from the bones.
The remaining warriors, upon seeing this, fled in terror. They knew they had provoked the wrong person, and Lin Yan, seeing them flee, only smiled coldly.
Then, he moved his mental energy and invoked spiritual fire within the warriors. Immediately, they fell to the ground, screaming in pain as they were consumed by the flames from within. When Lin Yan withdrew the fire, the warriors, who were once arrogant, turned into cold corpses.
"Ants don't even deserve to try stealing the keys," Lin Yan said coldly upon seeing the bodies, while the others present looked on in amazement.
"Who is this guy?"
"I heard this guy is the one who destroyed the Devil Rock Dynasty before!"
"Is he Lin Yan? As dangerous as rumored. No wonder he could destroy the Devil Rock Dynasty!"
