There have been a lot more people on the border of the Min State recently, especially in the originally small Diancheng, which has suddenly become very lively. This border city instantly became as lively as if a grand sacrifice was being held.
The high priest of the Ming State, Zhonghang Kui, also came here from afar. The Yi people from the opposite mountain villages rushed to the border. Thousands of Yi people arrived here riding on strange beasts and monsters. Even from a distance of dozens of miles, one could often hear the sound of hundreds of ferocious beasts howling at the moon.
The entire border between Diancheng and Ming Kingdom was under martial law. At the same time, the four countries of Zheng, Bai, Pan and Shao also began to stir. Some tribes were also under the influence of a large number of practitioners, and their whereabouts were strange and uncertain.
The area along the Li River for hundreds of miles was not peaceful anywhere. No one knew how many powerful monks had gathered there. Some old monsters and big demons who had never shown up and were thought to be dead also showed up one after another.
In the Dian City of the Ming Kingdom, Dian Yu, who used to be like a local tyrant, was now kneeling in front of the high priest Zhong Xingkui. Priests wearing red clothes with densely marked patterns on the altar could be seen throughout the city lord's mansion.
Zhonghang Kui, wearing a gorgeous golden priest robe, sat cross-legged at the table at the head. Beside him, two fair-skinned female priestesses were arranging Zhonghang Kui's favorite incense burners and tripods, and lighting the calming incense.
“Finally… it finally appeared!” Zhong Xingkui was so excited that he was restless. Finally, he stood up and walked around with his hands behind his back.
"How many old monsters have died for this day? Those guys who once oppressed me are all dead. I have been waiting for this." Zhong Xingkui was very excited. As soon as he opened his mouth, he somewhat exposed his identity that he was not from the Mountain and Sea Realm. Although he had been in this Mountain and Sea Realm for more than a hundred years, he still could not change some habits from the present world.
Zhonghang Kui raised his hands high and shouted to the sky: "This is a God-given opportunity, which happened to be opened at this time. I, Zhonghang Kui, will definitely be able to achieve immortality and ascend to become an immortal in this life."
Di Yu echoed appropriately, "If the high priest can make further progress, our Ming Nation will surely be able to sweep across all the nations and unify the world once again."
Songdi of Shao State has more than 30 cities. It was the territory expanded by Shao State after it annexed Song State. At this moment, a team secretly left Songdi, passed through several Yi villages on the border, and went deep into the Shiwan Mountains.
The leader was Lu Zhou. At this moment, no one thought that they had gone around to the place where the fighting was most intense, arrived behind the Yi army, and used secret techniques to observe the movements of the ruins.
"I didn't expect there to be a longevity pond here. There should be one in the Baidi Pond as well. My mission this time is incidental. The main thing is to prevent Pan Country from getting the longevity pond. I also want to see what secrets about the heaven and tens of millions of years ago are hidden in this legendary relic that fell from the heaven."
In addition to the two of them, the high priest Xuanyuan of Shao State, the priests of Zheng State and Bai State, and a large number of aquatic creatures from Lijiang River also broke into this area along the river in groups. Even Gao State, which was thousands of miles away, had no connection with this place and was hostile and rejected by other countries, also secretly sent people and had already arrived here.
And within that nameless mountain, the ruins that have now been revealed are tightly surrounded by tens of thousands of barbarian troops and the stationed villages.
The witches and priests who had rushed over from the depths of the Ten Thousand Mountains were standing in front of a large barrier formation that exuded murderous intent, trying every possible way to break through the barrier and enter it.
These barbarian shamans all wore strange and terrifying accessories and magical instruments, their hair was braided, and their faces were tattooed with witch god patterns, but their clothing was somewhat similar to the shaman robes of the former Dahuan.
At this moment, standing at the front of hundreds of witches and priests was an old man with all his hair fallen out and not even a single tooth left in his mouth. At first glance, he looked like a demon crawling out of hell, terrifying and hideous. Because his death was near, he used a large amount of elixirs, poisons, and forbidden techniques to prolong his life. His whole body emanated a foul odor, just like the stench emanating from a corpse.
He was standing at the entrance of the valley, leaning on a cane and hunching his waist, with his figure completely hidden in his cloak. Behind him were hundreds of ferocious witches and priests. No one dared to speak at this moment, as if they were extremely afraid of the old man standing in front of them.
If there were people who had stayed in Xundu, the capital of King Dahuan, seventy or eighty years ago, they might be able to find the shadow of the great witch Ji Danjia from this face that was so old that it was half buried in the ground and looked lifeless.
Several strong middle-aged shamans beside him stepped forward and tested the formation, but as soon as they entered, they saw light sweeping in, and several barbarian shamans and their mounts were swept in and disappeared without a trace.
The many barbarians and slaves surrounding outside were so frightened that they unconsciously leaned back.
"This is at least a fourth-level forbidden formation? I heard that fourth-level magic tools are spiritual, so this formation may also be spiritual. Not only does it know how to distinguish between living and dead things, it can also attack and defeat our attempts with the least amount of force. Its power far exceeds that of the third level." A witch priest standing next to Dan Jia, who seemed to be his disciple, spoke.
Another person nodded: "That's right, when you look at the formation, it seems to be breathing, continuous, endless, forming a cycle on its own, which is beyond our imagination."
"This may not be a restriction or formation!" Tan Jia finally spoke, his voice was like the sound of an old wooden door being pushed open, harsh and long.
"If it's not a formation, then what is it?" As soon as Tan Jia opened his mouth, many people around him exclaimed in surprise. Everyone looked up at the barrier that covered the valley and the entire mountain.
"How is this possible? What is this thing then?" The power and divine light emanating from the crowd condensed into one. How could this not be a formation barrier
Tan Jia stretched out his hand, and the thick green witch power gathered at his fingertips, turning into a ghost claw that pressed on the barrier. The barrier suddenly backfired, and powerful force and light rebounded, sweeping out for thousands of meters.
However, it was blocked by Tan Jia. Tan Jia laughed knowingly with a devilish face: "Sure enough... this thing really fell from heaven!"
Many shamans and priests were even more confused and had no idea what Tan Jia had discovered or understood.
Tan Jia turned around and said, "Tomorrow I will open this spiritual world and enter it. Chi, Mei, the two of you follow me in."
Tan Jia immediately laughed like a night owl: "Whoever can enter first may be the first to become a fourth-level cultivator."
"And those who become the fourth level first will be able to master everything."
Tan Jia's cloudy eyes, which were covered with white film, now burst into a brilliant light: "Perhaps, what I have obtained this time is not just the fourth level, but more..."
At this time, only a disciple standing next to Danjia, who knew him very well, seemed to understand something. This light curtain that looked like a barrier might be related to something powerful.

At this moment, at the border between Shao State and Min State, in a Dragon King Temple located on the bank of Lihe River, five Taoists had already lived there half a month ago. And today, a carriage came, and two people, an old man and a young man, got off the carriage.
Fang Xiu raised his head and looked inside the Taoist temple. There was not the slightest trace of cultivators, but his eyes flashed and he immediately saw two powerful auras bursting out from the Taoist temple and pressing towards Fang Xiu.
A familiar voice shouted impatiently: "Fengdu, you guy, just come in now, what are you looking at!"
