"Everyone, don't be nervous. Stay close, and maybe we don't have to fight them directly! At least I know this place better than they do!"At this moment, Tang Qi spoke.
The others breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Tang Qi's response.
Then, Tang Qi instructed them to follow closely behind him, and together they advanced further into the ruins.
Just as Tang Qi had said, although he hadn't entered this Ancient God Ruins for a long time,
he was very familiar with it and led the twenty-plus martial artists towards areas within the Ancient God Ruins that were not easily followed by others.
Sure enough, it wasn't long before they realized they had left those Exotic Realm Creatures far behind and could no longer see their silhouettes.
"I didn't expect so many Exotic Realm Creatures to enter here. What should we do now?"
Even though they had shaken off the Exotic Realm Creatures behind them, the martial artists remained vigilant, knowing that they had only temporarily evaded those creatures and might eventually face them in battle within these ruins.
If they were to engage directly with those Exotic Realm Creatures in the future, it would indeed be a major trouble.
Instantly, a deep sense of fear about the future filled the hearts of many martial artists present.
However, what happened next was beyond Tang Qi and the others' expectations. They thought they had eluded those Exotic Realm Creatures.
But less than fifteen minutes later, they sensed a sudden surge of powerful transmission energy ahead, and then saw at least over two hundred Exotic Realm Creatures appearing in front of them.
"Could it be Quan Douhe is behind this?"
Tang Qi's eyes flickered as he quickly considered this possibility, suspecting that Quan Douhe had likely set up some Teleportation Arrays within the Ancient God Ruins to transport those Exotic Realm Creatures to a place not far from him, thus revealing Tang Qi and the others' location to them.
Duan Gujin surmised that Quan Douhe probably knew they were at odds with those Exotic Realm Creatures, which was why he transported them nearby.
"Since Tang Qi can control us, it's not surprising if Quan Douhe can control those Exotic Realm Creatures!"
He had previously anticipated this result was highly likely.
Now that the expected result had occurred, he remained calm.
"What is destined to come will come! I just wonder what other plots Quan Douhe has in store!"
Duan Gujin glanced around, carefully observing the actions of the Exotic Realm Creatures ahead.
After a while, he noticed that those Exotic Realm Creatures were indeed coming towards them; they only scanned the surroundings briefly before locking onto their position.
In Duan Gujin's eyes, the actions of these Exotic Realm Creatures seemed very peculiar.
Within this Ancient God Ruins, a powerful energy blocked Divine Sense probing, preventing exploration by Divine Sense.
And Tang Qi, solely by being familiar with the Ancient God Ruins, led them further inside.
Yet now, the Exotic Realm Creatures ahead could accurately determine their position, which made Duan Gujin suspect they had received guidance.
Previously, he had forcibly read some memories of the Exotic Realm Creatures, knowing that their ability to probe with Divine Sense was greatly restricted here, just like theirs.
Therefore, he didn't believe that these Exotic Realm Creatures could still use Divine Sense probing here without guidance.
And within the Ancient God Ruins, only Tang Qi's enemy Quan Douhe could be involved.
Everyone's brow furrowed, and their mood became very tense.
"Circle around, we need to break through together later!"
Tang Qi covertly communicated to other members of the Human Clan, asking them to move closer to him.
The others hesitated for a moment but eventually moved towards his position.
They didn't get too close to Tang Qi; they didn't want to fall into a trap.
After a while, noticing the Exotic Realm Creatures were less than fifty meters away, they prepared to charge and fight.
However, an unexpected development occurred suddenly; they sensed a powerful transmission energy enveloping them.
Realizing it was Tang Qi who emitted the transmission energy, Duan Gujin's brow furrowed further as his mind raced, unable to fathom why Tang Qi chose this moment to send transmission energy upon them.
"What exactly is he trying to do?"
Before Duan Gujin could ponder the question, he found himself transported by strong transmission energy.
Almost ten breaths later, he noticed the transmission energy around him finally vanished, and he widened his eyes to see where he had been sent.
He glanced around and realized he was still most likely within the Ancient God Ruins.
"Why did Tang Qi disperse us? Or perhaps where I am isn't the Ancient God Ruins?"
He racked his brain for a while, still unable to come to a conclusion.
He released his Divine Sense to try and see if he could use probing here.
A moment later, he discovered he couldn't use Divine Sense probing here.
Then, he also realized he couldn't use Flying Technique here.
He immediately widened his eyes, looking around to see if there were any other martial artists.
However, after searching for a while, he found no other martial artists.
"Where are the others?"
Duan Gujin's eyes flashed, and he took out the Pointing Compass from the storage ring.
But after observing it for a while, he found the Pointing Compass couldn't give a direction.
"Oh no! Am I lost here?"
He felt a shock within and thought for a while before deciding to leave some simple markings where he was now.
"If the Ancient God Ruins have been turned into a giant maze by Quan Douhe, it's very likely I could be trapped here permanently!"
He promptly made some simple marks in conspicuous spots nearby. Once done, he proceeded to the left.
After advancing about three kilometers to the left, he suddenly saw three men and three women ahead.
The three men and three women were dressed in attire belonging to the Divine World's Immortal Sect, which made him think they were disciples from the Divine World Immortal Sect entering here.
"Friends in front, may I ask if you are martial artists from the Divine World?"
Duan Gujin quickly shouted, trying to draw the attention of those six martial artists in front.
The six martial artists heard Duan Gujin's shout, looked around, and quickly spotted him.
"Everyone, be careful!"
A woman warned.
"Understood!"
The other martial artists responded in unison.
"You over there, which Immortal Sect are you from?"
A woman loudly inquired.
"I am a disciple of Ascension Academy, on a mission from the Academy to gather intelligence here. Unexpectedly, we encountered a sealed Residual Soul, and following its words, we came here. A moment ago, I was suddenly enveloped in a powerful transmission energy and found myself transported here!"
"An Ascension Academy disciple? So you're from the Thirty Thousand Small Planes! Hmph!"
One martial artist remarked contemptuously.
"Don't say that. We've lost quite a few people since coming here, and it's been quite tragic!"
A woman quickly shook her head and said.
