Chapter 1759: Chapter 1757: Map
Ling Feng quietly knocked out a pedestrian, then dragged him into a small alley. Half an hour later, Ling Feng emerged from the alley with a look of realization on his face.
From the pedestrianâs mouth, Ling Feng finally obtained quite a lot of information. The planet is called Sky Blue Star, with roughly half of the planet being land and the other half being ocean. There is a Sea Clan in the ocean, and the land and sea races have been at war for tens of thousands of years; they are essentially archenemies.
However, Ling Feng couldnât understand how a land race and an ocean race managed to sustain a war for tens of thousands of years. Perhaps only the top leaders of both sides could answer this!
As for their war, Ling Feng had no interest whatsoever, and for Ling Feng, wars below the Azure Sky Realm no longer piqued his interest.
If Ling Feng wished, he could overthrow the rule of this planet within one day and become its ruler. However, this held no attraction for Ling Feng.
"Haha, this is great!" In the Royal Palace, a master at the Divine Sea Realm Peak gazed at the victory report, revealing a delighted expression: "Those hateful Sea Clan folks, now they know my power. Next, Iâll counterattack your Sea Clan and invade your Sea Clan Royal Palace, hahaha..."
After casting the victory report onto the table, the man chuckled: "Tonight I can have a grand celebration with my concubines, hehe..."
"Youâre in quite good spirits!" At this moment, Ling Fengâs teasing voice came from behind the man.
The manâs expression changed, quickly turned around, and shot several attacks: "Who is it, trying to ambush me?"
But his attacks stagnated in mid-air, and he looked in disbelief at the scene. He saw the young man seated on his throne and felt a deep fear from his heart.
"Who are you? Did the Sea Clan send you to kill me?" The manâs voice was somewhat hoarse, his eyes flashing with fierce light.
Ling Feng chuckled and said, "Kill you? Do you think youâre worthy?"
The manâs eyes shifted, preparing to speak, but he suddenly felt an overpowering pressure bearing down on him, rendering his prideful strength utterly unusable.
The manâs eyes showed an astonished expression; he was at the Divine Sea Realm Peak, knowing that only masters at the Azure Sky Realm could suppress him. In other words, the person in front of him was an Azure Sky Realm master!
"Sir!" The man swallowed hard, eyes filled with despair rather than fierceness: "I didnât know you were visiting, please pardon any rudeness."
Seeing the man wisely behaving, Ling Feng released the power that was binding him.
The man didnât resist; he knew he had no ground to resist and stood there obediently.
Ling Feng said calmly, "Donât worry, as long as you cooperate with me, I wonât kill you."
"Yes, sir, whatever you need, just command!" The man replied respectfully.
Ling Feng tapped lightly on the table and said, "Do you have a detailed map of the Ancient Ruins and the power distribution in it?"
The man hesitated a bit and said, "Sir, I do indeed have a map of the Ancient Battlefield inherited from my ancestors, but I donât know the latest power distribution. After all, our Sky Blue Star is just a small planet on the edge of the Ancient Ruins, incomparable with those Super Powers."
Ling Feng nodded: "Take out the map, and meanwhile, tell me everything you know about the Ancient Ruins!"
The man cautiously asked, "I wonder which aspects you are interested in?"
"About the Forbidden Areas and some Super Powers in the Ancient Ruins!" Ling Feng said blandly: "You should know my strength, so if you dare to deceive me, donât blame me for being impolite!"
The sweat trickled down the manâs forehead: "I wouldnât dare!"
Saying this, the man flipped his hand, and an ancient map appeared in Ling Fengâs hand, engraved with complex runes. When Ling Fengâs Divine Sense probed into it, a vast star map instantly appeared in his mind, densely populated with stars, annotated meticulously.
Ling Feng was somewhat surprised; after reading the map, he realized just how extensive the Ancient Ruins were and that the super clans within were entirely comparable to the Super Sects outside!
The man cautiously said: "Actually, most of what I know is already on the map. I just heard that one of the Three Great Powers in the Ancient Ruins, Heavenly Cloud Gate, was annihilated, but no one knows who did it yet!"
Ling Feng raised his eyebrows; from the map, he knew Heavenly Cloud Gate was very powerful, with over a hundred Azure Sky Realm masters, yet such a sect was annihilated?
"Is the major sect turnover in the Ancient Ruins frequent?" Ling Feng asked.
The man shook his head: "All major sects have been transmitted for countless years, always standing atop the Ancient Ruins; therefore, Heavenly Cloud Gateâs destruction shocked me. Even more shocking is that its annihilation seems unrelated to the other two powers, and itâs unknown which power replaced it."
Ling Feng slowly nodded: "Do you know of any quick method to travel to other planets?"
Through the previous investigation, Ling Feng realized that flying himself for a year wouldnât even reach the central point of the Ancient Ruins, let alone search for the Mad Doctor and the Path of Immortality!
"Sir can utilize Spatial Black Holes for teleportation!" The man said, "But Spatial Black Holes pose certain risks. Itâs said that only Azure Sky Realm masters can survive within them; those below the Azure Sky Realm will be crushed into powder if they enter."
Spatial Black Holes? Ling Feng pondered; there were indeed numerous spots labeled as Spatial Black Holes on the map.
"However, the teleportation of Spatial Black Holes isnât fixed!" The man continued, "Nevertheless, it is the fastest teleportation method."
Ling Feng patted the manâs shoulder, smiling: "Good, you cooperated well, Iâm very satisfied. Rest assured, I wonât harm you... Oh, I have one more question out of curiosity: why have you been at war with the Sea Clan for so long?"
For some reason, when Ling Feng posed this question, the manâs heart suddenly beat wildly a few times, then he feigned nonchalance, saying: "This matter is quite lengthy, just minor conflicts between us and the Sea Clan!"
