Purple thunders rolled in the sky above the ancient land of Xuemang.

There were thick blood clouds in the sky above the Blood Mang Ancient Land, but under the power of the purple thunder, the blood clouds actually decomposed into thick energy of heaven and earth, which dissipated into the sky and earth of the Blood Mang Ancient Land with the falling rain.

Not all the Grand Secretaries entered the ruins of Dragon City.

In the Lishan City Lord’s Mansion, the elderly Grand Secretary Feng Cheng held the official seal and looked over the entire city.

A quarter of an hour ago, the water in the city was already knee-deep and rising rapidly, so Feng Cheng had to mobilize the power of the Holy Temple.

At this moment, a translucent shield appeared over Lishan City, draining away the waterfall-like rain from the sky and sending the accumulated water in the city out, preventing the water outside from entering the city.

Many people stood on the city wall and looked out. The water outside the wall was already waist-deep!

The area outside the city has become an ocean.

At the beginning of the heavy rain, many scholars were very happy, but as the rain level rose and affected the lives of the residents, many people panicked. Except for the scholars, most people thought it was a major disaster.

People lamented, many people cried and wailed, and even more people came to the holy temple in groups, knelt down, burned incense, and prayed to Confucius to stop the flood.

No matter how those educated people persuaded them, most people did not believe it.

Feng Cheng sighed softly, his gaze left the whole city, looked out the door, and thought in his heart.

"It was pouring rain before, like the joyous spring rain, like the legendary ancient land's promotion, which is a great joy. But just now, the purple thunder flashed in the sky, causing the rain to double, and the vitality to be more abundant. At first glance, it seems to be a good thing, but if the ancient land is flooded, the human race will not even have fields, and there will be starving people everywhere. What should we do?"

Feng Cheng became more and more worried.

Not long after, Feng Cheng received the letter and took a closer look. It turned out to be from Grand Secretary Yao Luo. Yao Luo had just been promoted to Grand Secretary for less than three months. His strength was relatively weak and he had not entered the ruins of Dragon City.

Feng Cheng stared at the letter in a daze. Wangshan City where Yao Luo lived was located at the end of the Xuemang ancient land.

Wangshan City is located on a small hill, less than 20 miles to the east of Wangshan City, and is blocked by thick blood mist. All the university scholars have tried, but they cannot break through the blood mist barrier, and they believe that it is the ancient barrier of the Xuemang Ancient Land. It is the end of the ancient land.

But now, Yao Luo actually said that the blood mist barrier was retreating at a very fast speed, revealing a large area of ground, but those grounds were soon submerged by rain.

After sitting there for a while, Feng Cheng suddenly stood up, and a sickly blush appeared on his old face.

"God has eyes, Confucius has mercy on me! I am already over 68 years old, and I am less than two years away from my 70th birthday. With this rain of vitality from heaven, I may be able to live another year or two. But I didn't expect that I would encounter the expansion of the ancient land! Rumor has it that when the ancient land expands, a large number of treasures will be unearthed. If I am not mistaken, those new lands must contain a large number of divine objects, enough to exchange for the divine objects that will extend my life!"

There were flashes of light in Feng Cheng's eyes.

"Although Yao Luo is also considered a genius, his family background is ordinary. His father is just a student. He knows less about the Blood Mang Ancient Land than ordinary Hanlin families, so he would not know this secret. What's more, the real secret is not just the so-called new treasure. It is that the promotion of the ancient land must have the birth of the master of the ancient land! If I can become the master of the Blood Mang, I will definitely be able to live an extra hundred years, and it is even possible that I can live longer than a half-saint! God will not let me down, God will not let me down!"

“Hahaha…” Feng Cheng couldn’t help laughing out loud and quickly shut up.

"Those fools thought they would definitely get treasures if they found the ruins of Dragon City. Now, seven university scholars have lost their lives and are dead. When they know that the biggest opportunity in the Blood Mang Ancient Land is outside the ruins of Dragon City, and I will be the biggest winner, what will happen? There is no time to lose!"

Feng Cheng laughed loudly and quickly issued an order, ordering all family members to go to the nearest end of the Blood Mang Ancient Land and do their best to search for the divine object on the newly appeared ground.

Afterwards, Feng Cheng left the city alone and headed to the end of the Xuemang ancient land.

When Zi Lei was born, powerful thoughts appeared outside the Blood Mang Ancient Land, but as soon as those thoughts approached, they were swallowed up by the mysterious power of the Blood Mang Ancient Land.

The ancient land of Xuemang has undergone drastic changes, and many places such as the Holy Academy, the Demon Realm, the Four Seas Dragon Palace, the Ancient Demon Mountain Range, etc. have also changed accordingly.

The dungeon was very vast, covering hundreds of miles in radius. Fang Yun walked for a long time before reaching the entrance range in King Gubei’s memory. He took Tan Hemu to find the specific entrance to the second floor.

Soon, Fang Yun met hundreds of jailers or patrol generals one after another. Relying on the identity of Wen Xinglongjue, he was not only safe and sound, but also got the specific location of the entrance to the second floor.

Half a minute later, Fang Yun and Tan Hemu saw the entrance to the second floor from afar. Before they could get excited, they heard a familiar voice saying, "Fang Xusheng, help me! I'm so unlucky!"

Fang Yun looked in the direction of the voice and saw a blue-robed university scholar trapped in a cage.

There was a purple light flashing in the man's eyes, and it was the Grand Secretary Wei Huangan.

Fang Yun was startled, then he rode over on his horse and asked in a thunderous voice, "Master Wei, have you been arrested by the jailer?"

Wei Huangan fanned himself anxiously, looking hopeless, and said, "Don't mention it! I came in from the entrance of the back hall and was moved to this cage! What's even more hateful is that I can see the entrance to the second floor below the first floor at a glance, and the distance is less than a hundred feet, but I can't get out! Do you think it's hateful or not?"

Fang Yun and Tan Hemu were stunned and laughed secretly together. No one expected such a coincidence to happen.

"Laugh, laugh! I knew you would laugh. This minister is just a little bit unlucky. Overall, I am still very lucky. After all, I was directly moved to the entrance of the second floor, and I don’t have to worry about being killed by the jailer!" Wei Huangan fanned himself quickly in annoyance, but although he was annoyed, he was not angry at all.

Fang Yun coughed lightly and said, "During this period, have you seen anyone enter the second floor?"

Wei Huangan said angrily, "I get angry whenever I mention this. It's ok that the three ancient monsters went in, and it's ok that Xiong Tu got lucky and rushed in, but Mo Yao, that old immortal, was also moved to a nearby place and entered early! I still remember the look on Mo Yao's face and the smile on his face before he entered the second floor. I wanted to take off my shoes and beat him hard, leaving shoe prints all over his face!"

Fang Yun knew that Wei Huangan's temper was different from that of ordinary scholars. He was just carefree and casual. He smiled and said, "Then try not to laugh when you go down to the second floor."

Wei Huangan fanned his fan even faster, and said helplessly, "Brother Xusheng, please stop making trouble. I know you have a way to open the cage. Name a price, how many kilograms of dragon-patterned rice? When that old man Mo Yao passed by, I didn't say a word. I knew he couldn't open the cage."

Fang Yun took a closer look at Wei Huangan's cage and saw a broken giant shrimp on the ground, which was three meters long. It was a very famous mantis shrimp king in ancient times. The claws on the shrimp king's body had disappeared. He said, "Master Wei has a good eye. The two claws of this ancient shrimp king are worth a lot of money. They have not decayed for many years. I'm afraid they have become Master Wei's possession."
