In fact, the pangolins could not truly approach the underground. On one hand, other fierce beasts eyed them covetously, and on the other, Master Tianzang had left quite a few contingencies in these ruins.
They were afraid too.
From what was understood, Master Tianzang had once swept through the entire Alien Beast Realm, and it was only after his death that everyone gradually became active.
And it coincided with the Rebirth of Spiritual Energy…
Without the restraint of the strongest human beings, one by one, they inevitably became more domineering.
…
But currently, Pei Jinye took a different approach.
“Don’t take the main road; go from the side… I’ll give you the blueprint. Dig along this line. Once something approaches, stop and dig quietly.”
He watched the pangolins leave.
Not far away, more shocks were heard, almost drawing everyone’s attention.
Pei Jinye looked up to see that one of the three kings, “Pitan,” was engaging in a peak battle with Werewolf Des.
With his vision, there wasn’t any hindrance under the night sky. He could genuinely capture the exchange between these two powerhouses.
Pitan appeared to be only a thirty-something-year-old youth, but according to Doctor Zhao, this individual was already sixty but still at the vitality peak, hence appeared very young.
It was like a flame wrapped around the fist, the intense light dazzling beneath the night sky.
However, Pei Jinye was more astonished by the ruins.
In the outside world, Pitan’s fist just now was fierce enough to shatter the mountain in front of him.
But–
It didn’t!
It was as if everything on this island was protected by some force, reducing everyone’s destructive power by at least seventy percent.
“This place… is very strange.”
Pei Jinye’s gaze deepened.
He was quite intrigued.
But presently, those gathered here were basically the cutting edge of combat power, and it was easy for him to be spotted.
Besides, the mechanisms that Master Tianzang left were yet unbroken.
His presence there would be useless.
The fierce battles continued unabated, and soon they had moved behind the mountain.
Pei Jinye didn’t know whether Doctor Zhao had relocated–as for him, he had left.
Not using this time to cultivate truly would be a disservice to himself.
…
Only in the latter part of the night did the combat finally show signs of ending, the roars of the fierce beasts also unknowingly ceased.
Pei Jinye finished his cultivation.
Several hours of cultivation felt as quick as the blinking of an eye.
He found Doctor Zhao, who was yawning and appeared somewhat tired.
“You are here.”
“How was last night’s battle situation?” Pei Jinye asked.
Upon mentioning that, Doctor Zhao’s face livened up a bit: “It was fierce. According to the count, at least half of the people Pitan took died. Also, four of Wild Gold Country’s Eighteen Forbidden Guards fell, although Pitan and Werewolf Des still have not determined the victor. One hour ago, Pitan withdrew with his men, while Des defended the ruins and chose not to pursue. They’re likely to make a move again today.”
Pei Jinye was a bit surprised: “That many died?”
“Those fierce beasts were absolutely like madmen. Last night, ninety percent of the bats died, most of them killed by hawks, and now everyone is on their own,” Doctor Zhao said somewhat gleefully: “Beasts will be beasts. If these creatures were united, we humans definitely wouldn’t stand a chance.”
Pei Jinye thoughtfully said, “I’m curious about something. Werewolf is guarding the ruins and preventing others from approaching–is it because it has a way to open the ruins?”
Doctor Zhao was taken aback.
“Yes, why is that? Does it truly have a way? Thinking back now, it was indeed among the first to appear. We clashed back then. If it had wanted, our losses would have been greater, but at that time, it was focused on entering the ruins, so it also gave us time to retreat.”
Pei Jinye, seeing this, shook his head and said, “The appearance of the Tianzang Ruins itself was abrupt. Who among you knew before that Des was here?”
“We really didn’t know. Des appeared seven days ago, more than four hundred kilometers away on the prairie, and nobody knew that it had appeared here so quietly.”
Listening to the sporadic noises from afar, Pei Jinye said lowly: “These guys don’t even feel tired.”
“Honestly, Werewolves have the strongest physical strength…” Doctor Zhao also expressed a bit of envy, “Nature’s selection. The only good news is that their lifespan isn’t as long as that of human beings; otherwise, they’d eventually rule this planet.”
Soon, the major battle that had erupted yesterday evening stretched until the next morning.
It finally ended, with no more sounds audible, and only a pungent smell of blood reaching from afar.
“Have the people from our country not arrived yet?” Pei Jinye asked, retracting his gaze.

Doctor Zhao shook his head: “Wild Gold Country has sealed off the borders. Not just our Summer Country, but over a dozen countries have sent representatives who are now negotiating with Wild Gold Country… but I get the feeling Wild Gold Country plans to stall until the ruins are opened, hoping to wholly claim the treasures within…”
Pei Jinye raised an eyebrow upon hearing this: “Does that mean that even if we obtain the treasures, we may not be able to leave Wild Gold Country?”
Doctor Zhao shrugged: “Theoretically, that’s the case, so I’m just grateful that we are a major nation. Eventually, our country will exert pressure, economically, as many parts of Wild Gold Country still depend on us.”
“Let’s hope so.”
Pei Jinye’s gaze returned to the window.
Without the help of domestic experts, their advantage would greatly diminish.
