Chapter 435 Ancient Ruins (Please subscribe, please vote)
In front of Lin Yi, a virtual map suddenly appeared, showing the layout of the entire ancient ruins in detail.
The ancient ruins cover a vast area, with a horizontal span of 30 kilometers and a vertical width of 28 kilometers. The overall shape is slightly square.
Through the virtual map, Lin Yi discovered that there was a disk in the center of the ancient ruins. The disk was labeled 'Twilight Dynasty Palace', and this was his goal.
Su Xiao and Lin Yi stood side by side. They carefully planned the shortest route to the depths of the ancient ruins on the virtual map.
As they gradually penetrated into the ruins of history, Lin Yi began to realize that this place should have been the site of a prosperous kingdom, perhaps the capital of an ancient kingdom.
They traveled among the ruins and found that most traces of residential houses had disappeared, leaving only a patch of weathered gravel, silently telling the ruthlessness of time.
Among these ruins, only some large stone sculptures and magnificent stone palaces are well preserved, which stand out in this desolate area and are particularly eye-catching.
A sense of dilapidation permeates this ancient ruins, which makes people feel deeply moved.
What was once a prosperous and prosperous era, now only piles of indifferent stones remain. They have witnessed the glory of that era, and also witnessed its decline.
The vast area of ancient ruins can be clearly divided into four parts, each with its own unique characteristics.
The outermost area where Lin Yi and Su Xiao are currently located is called the Wild Grass Area, which is the fourth area of the ruins.
Here, wild grass spreads, presenting a desolate and ancient scene.
Continuing deeper, they will enter the tree area, which is the third area.
Dense trees grow in this area, and they gather into a circular forest, like a natural barrier, closely surrounding the two areas in the center of the ancient ruins.
The lushness of the trees adds a touch of life to the ruins.
Further forward, passing through the lush tree area, is the second area.
Here, large areas of ruined walls and semi-weathered stone pillars are densely distributed, forming an intricate terrain.
Lin Yi held a notebook in his hand, writing and drawing on it, recording the general scenes along the way.
After passing through the intricate second area, Su Xiao suddenly stopped, his eyes fixed on a stone square in front of him.
In the center of the square, a huge circular pit is eye-catching. It is at least two kilometers in diameter and bottomless, as if it leads to another unknown world.
Lin Yi carefully walked to the edge of the circular pit and leaned over to look.
There were faint waves of malice coming from the pit, as if there was some unknown danger lurking inside.
A faint cold air rose from the bottom of the pit, making the entire circular pit even more strange and unpredictable.
Lin Yi couldn't help but feel wary, there seemed to be something deadly hidden here.
In the center of this circular pit with a diameter of two kilometers, there is an extremely intact palace. This is the "Twilight Dynasty Palace", which is supported on the circular pit.
Upon closer inspection, you can see that the 'Twilight Dynasty Palace' is built on a huge circular stone plate, which seems to be a millstone magnified thousands of times.
What supports this palace are hundreds of thick stone pillars. They penetrate deep into the bottom of the circular pit and hold up the palace steadily.
I don’t know how this ‘Twilight Dynasty Palace’ was built. With the relatively backward architectural standards in this world, it is simply unbelievable to build such a magnificent building.
Even with modern technology, it is almost impossible to complete such a project in the face of such a deep circular pit.
At the three diagonal corners of the stone plate below the 'Twilight Dynasty Palace', there are three five-meter-wide stone bridges connecting the palace to the outside world.
The design of these three stone bridges is a bit dumbfounding.
There are no guardrails on the edge of the stone bridge, and the bare bridge deck makes people have to be careful when walking.
If a fight breaks out on the stone bridge, if you are not careful, you may be knocked off the bridge and fall into the bottomless, malicious circular pit.
Above the 'Twilight Dynasty Palace', some rubble slowly rotated and floated against gravity.
Su Xiao walked to a stone bridge, Dragon Slayer Flash appeared in his hand, and he aimed a knife at the edge of the stone bridge.
The sword flashed, but only a crisp "ding" was heard.
Small pieces of gravel flew away, and the stone bridge was surprisingly strong. You know, even if it is steel, Su Xiao can cut it open with one knife.
"It's interesting. Let me come over and take a look." Lin Yi put away the notebook in his hand and walked to Su Xiao.
He placed his palm on the stone bridge that Lin Yi attacked just now, and injected the power of the abyss into the stone bridge.
After Lin Yi discovered it, the material of the stone bridge was actually very ordinary, just common marble.
However, there are a large number of alchemical formations carved inside the stone bridge. These formations are intricate and intricate. Even though countless years have passed, energy still flows within them.
The reason why Su Xiao's attack on Shiqiao just had no effect was because the energy inside Shiqiao took the blow for Shiqiao itself at the critical moment.
Therefore, Su Xiao's knife only chopped a small piece of stone, but the stone bridge itself was intact.
The two walked onto the stone bridge and walked towards the 'Twilight Dynasty Palace'. This was a very majestic palace. Standing in front of the palace, anyone would feel insignificant.
In front of the palace, two ten-meter-high metal doors came into view.
A profound picture is exquisitely carved on the door: a man wearing a crown and holding a scepter kneels on one knee, stretching his arms forward, trying to touch a pile of extinguished flames in front of him.
There was also a twisted sword stuck in the flames.
Above the man is the sun in total eclipse, symbolizing the intertwining of darkness and light.
Although this is just a sculpture, Su Xiao seemed to feel the scene inside.
The sun has been swallowed by the moon wolf, and the flame is burning weakly and is about to be extinguished, indicating that the world will soon be shrouded in 'darkness', and it will be a never-ending 'dark' era.
Only the king at the center of the world is still working hard. He is trying to seize the last glimmer of light, use this faint light to save his people, and fight against the evil dragon to the end.
Among the king's people are humans, elves, dwarves, orcs, centaurs, goblins, giants, and trolls. The eight races have their own territories. Although they are not at peace with each other, they are not peaceful either. will invade each other.
The hot-tempered dwarves and the arrogant elves make weapons and quarrel together, the giants and trolls try to marry, the centaurs gallop on the grassland, hunt, and live in peace with the world, the goblins research weird things every day, and the humans are connected Trade of all races.
All this changed because of a dragon.
Although the king defeated the evil dragon, the king is about to die.
Among the king's people, humans, elves and giants drank the blood of the evil dragon in order to gain more power.
They united and formed a powerful legion called the Dragon Legion.
The orcs, dwarves, goblins and trolls chose to eat the dragon's meat, hoping to gain strength from it.
However, the dragon's power is not so easy to control.
As time went by, that power gradually eroded their hearts, triggering endless greed and fighting.
A hundred years later, the originally vast continent had been shattered due to years of wars and disasters, with only one-third of its area remaining.
In this broken land, the war between the Dragon Empire and the tribal alliance intensified.
They were originally the king's subjects, but now they are deeply affected by the evil dragon's greed and fall into endless battles.

"Do you think it's true or false?"
"It goes without saying that the hints are already out."
After seeing the reminder about Samsara Paradise, Lin Yi frowned. You must know that it is obvious that the current battle between the tribe and the Soaring Dragon Empire is entirely caused by the evil dragon.
Then the most critical point appeared in Lin Yi's mind, where did the evil dragon go?
You must know that just the blood and meat of the evil dragon can cause the entire continent to become chaotic like this. If the evil dragon really appears, the difficulty of this war world will probably skyrocket instantly.
A few seconds later, the metal door in front of them gradually decayed.
With a crash, the ten-meter-high metal door turned into large pieces of dust and dissipated, and the metal doors in the other two corners of the palace also dissipated at the same time.
