Chapter 782
782 The ruins under the clouds (1)
After the teleportation ended, Tang Zhen appeared at the edge of the area that the map had shown earlier with the anti-magic compass above his head.
Sensing the energy in his body, he realized that there was not much left. If he wanted to rely on it to fight, it would definitely not be enough.
“Why is this damn anti-demon plate so hard to deal with?”
Tang Zhen inhaled a deep breath of air. He sized up the surrounding environment, only to discover that he had appeared in front of an enormous square that was covered by clouds.
Originally, he thought that this place was just a wilderness. However, after seeing the broken stone pillars and the broken bluestone ground, he knew that he had guessed wrong.
This was not the wilderness, but a huge ruins, and the area was terrifyingly large.
At this time, in his map view, more than half of the place was covered by clouds and lightning, and he couldn’t see the end of it!
However, these ruins were covered by clouds and fog, so he didn’t see clearly when he took a quick look just now. That was why he mistakenly thought that this was the wilderness.
Of course, regardless of whether it was the wilderness or the ruins, it did not have any effect on Tang Zhen. What he saw was only the cotton-like thick clouds in the low altitude. After all, he had already successfully escaped from the encirclement of the group of foreign race cultivators. At the same time, he had to make use of the special environment here to hide.
Tang Zhen didn’t think that he could easily get rid of that group of foreign cultivators. It was estimated that it wouldn’t take long for that group of people to find this place. However, before that, Tang Zhen could do many things.
For example, he could remove the anti-magic compass above his head.
No matter who had such a huge thing on their head, and they were walking step by step, or even couldn’t get rid of it by teleportation, they probably wouldn’t be in a good mood.
Right now, Tang Zhen really wanted to get rid of this broken thing and hang it above the two-star King tier’s head. He would then use his skills to bombard it from the outside.
If that old fellow did not die, Tang Zhen would unhesitatingly begin a second round of attacks even if he was lucky!
Of course, with the might of Tang Zhen’s cultivation skills, cultivators of the same level would probably be directly annihilated after a few moves. That old fellow was no exception.
Unfortunately, this was just a thought. After all, the anti-magic compass was still floating above his head, and its target was still him!
Tang Zhen did not hesitate when he thought of this. He directly picked up a huge rock the size of a millstone from the ground, raised his hand, and smashed it toward the devil suppressing plate.
Although Tang Zhen was currently unable to use his cultivation skills, his mental energy and physical strength were still present. The destructive power of the rock that he had thrown out was not inferior to a 200 mm howitzer!
Even if it was a concrete wall, it would definitely be smashed through by this stone!
However, who would have thought that the moment the stone touched the devil suppressing plate, it would be blocked by a layer of light on the surface of the plate and turned into a cloud of dust in the blink of an eye!
Tang Zhen was slightly speechless when he saw this. He had long expected that this devil suppressing plate would definitely have some defensive method. Otherwise, it would have been shot down countless times!
However, who knew that the defensive strength of this devil suppressing plate was actually so abnormal? this had exceeded Tang Zhen’s expectations. In this case, it was likely that his plan to destroy the devil suppressing plate with brute force would not work.
One had to know that shattering a rapidly approaching rock and shattering a rock into powder were two completely different concepts.
The former could be said to be a head-on collision, while the latter must have released a terrifying vibration force at the same time as it blocked. If it was a physical contact, it would probably be shaken into blood foam immediately!
The methods of the cultivators from another world had many redeeming qualities, and this troublesome anti-demon plate was one of them.
Tang Zhen was currently unable to use any cultivator skills. The methods that he could use were also extremely limited. Therefore, he was somewhat at his wit’s end when he faced this devil suppressing plate.
A couple of methods flashed through Tang Zhen’s mind. However, he felt that he was unable to strike down this devil suppressing plate. Therefore, he could only give up for the time being.
It seemed that he could only use the clouds above the ruins to temporarily cover himself and then find a way to deal with it!
After making a decision in his heart, Tang Zhen stepped into the ruins. At the same time, he constantly looked around to prevent any monsters from suddenly attacking.
After entering the ruins, Tang Zhen discovered that the clouds here were far thicker than he had imagined. He couldn’t see anything beyond ten meters. The ground under his feet was also covered with corpses of cultivators and monsters.
For some unknown reason, the bones had not completely rotted. Instead, they had turned into mummies, covered in mycelium-like fine hair.
Just as Tang Zhen approached the corpses, the mycelium-like fine hair suddenly retracted back into the corpses. Then, the mummified corpses suddenly got up from the ground and pounced at Tang Zhen with their fangs and claws bared.
Tang Zhen frowned slightly when he saw this. He took out the soul annihilating saber and casually waved it, cutting all the corpses that were charging towards him in half at the waist!
After those mummies were chopped off, they could still move. They either dragged their stomachs with their feet or crawled with their arms dragging half of their bodies. They still persevered and launched attacks at Tang Zhen.
This scene was really extremely strange!
One of the mummies even pulled a part of the monster’s body with its upper body and stuck it to the monster’s body. Then, countless mycelium quickly drilled out of the wound, secreting a large amount of latex-like mucus, and the two corpses quickly stuck together.
Perhaps it saw that there was still space on the monster’s body, so the mummified body pulled another body that was crawling on the ground and placed it on the monster’s body where the internal organs were exposed.
Hence, a strange monster with half a monster’s body and two alien cultivators ‘half a body on it directly appeared in front of Tang Zhen and pounced on him fiercely.
As usual, Tang Zhen’s knife slashed out. However, this time, he deliberately used a little trick. After the monster was hit, its body immediately shattered and fell to the ground with a crash.
After a while, countless hyphae emerged from the broken pieces of the corpse, like the legs of a centipede. They quickly crawled into the distance and burrowed into the rocks among the ruins.
Some of the corpses had gathered together to form a giant meatball with dozens of heads. The meatball kept rolling in the ruins and hitting the ground.
However, those heads did not feel any pain. They only opened their eyes and stared at Tang Zhen. At the same time, they rapidly disappeared into the clouds.
Tang Zhen completely ignored him when he saw this. Instead, he continued to attack.
After using this method to get rid of all the monsters, Tang Zhen shook off the non-existent stains on the soul annihilating saber and continued to walk toward the depths of the ruins.
After walking for another kilometer or so, a huge building wreckage appeared in front of Tang Zhen’s eyes. Even though it had already collapsed, its height still soared into the sky.
Just one of the translucent black bricks in the building was more than two meters long. Countless broken bricks were piled up, looking like small mountains!
So even though these buildings had been destroyed, they still looked extremely shocking. From this, it could be seen how tall and majestic it had been when it was intact!
Tang Zhen felt curious in his heart. He knew that it was extremely likely that this was the ruins of a City Tower. However, the question was, what level of City Tower would it be to have such a terrifying scale?
Or was this place once a giant city, and the cultivators inside were all shockingly tall, the kind that could catch birds in the sky with a raise of their hands?
With doubts in his heart, Tang Zhen slowly walked along the giant ruins. In the end, it did not take long before he saw a huge corpse in the ruins.
It was just as he had imagined. This was indeed a city where a giant once lived. This was because the head of the giant in front of him was the size of a house!
This was only the size of the head. God knew how big the giant was when its body was added in.
However, when Tang Zhen’s eyes swept over the enormous skull and clearly saw the object within the skull, he could not help but let out a soft “Yi.”
