Jared walked over and asked, “How is it, Mr. Flaxseed?”
“This ancient ruin is quite huge. However, the entrance is probably destroyed by someone...” Flaxseed responded.
“What do you mean?” Jared frowned. “Are you saying that someone had already entered the ancient ruins before?”
Flaxseed nodded in response.
“If someone else had been in there, doesn't it mean our trip here is wasted?” Gilbert said after letting out a sigh.
“That's hard to say. Even if these people can enter the ancient ruins, it's not guaranteed that they can get the items inside. It's similar to the ancient ruins of Skywrath Sect we visited that day. Although we had entered the ancient ruins many times, we almost got nothing from them. Exploring ancient ruins is not the same as exploring ancient tombs. When an ancient tomb is opened, it'll technically be destroyed completely. However, ancient ruins are protected by an arcane array. The items inside ancient ruins can't be touched by anyone just as they wish,” Flaxseed explained.
“Mr. Flaxseed, can't you just tell us where the ancient ruins' entrance is? We'll find out once we get in, won't we?” Jared asked anxiously.
Yet, Flaxseed shook his head. “I can't find the entrance. Someone wiped the traces to the entrance and reformed a new arcane array. Now, we have to search for it slowly.”
“Could it be that those people who broke into the ancient ruins are still inside?” Anne asked.
“It's possible...” Flaxseed nodded in agreement.
“Then, could they be the ones who are spreading the rumors about the tiger demon and causing people to disappear? Maybe they're doing these on purpose to scare off the people who are searching for the ancient ruins,” Evangeline said after contemplating for a while.
“Yes, that's possible as well. But no matter what exactly the situation is right now, we still have to find the entrance first...” Jared was eager to find the ancient ruins as soon as possible.
Just when Jared was about to lead the others and continue their journey toward the snowy mountain, they sensed a sudden wave of auras coming from behind them.
