“Boy, don’t be arrogant!” The black-robed man climbed up from the ground.
Immediately, a resolute look flashed in his eyes as he charged towards Billy, his body rapidly expanding.
“Billy, be careful, he’s going to self-destruct!” Purple Spirit’s voice rang out.
“Retreat!” Billy shouted.
As he spoke, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he raised his hand, creating a barrier that enveloped the black-robed man.
A loud explosion echoed through the Heavenly Xuan Space, causing the entire space to tremble. The black-robed man and the barrier vanished simultaneously.
The self-destruction of a Supreme Ancestry Realm expert was no small matter. Despite the barrier’s buffer, Billy, Purple Spirit, and White Feather were still blown hundreds of meters away.
After landing on the ground, blood trickled from the corners of Billy and White Feather’s mouths, their internal energy churning violently.
Purple Spirit was also in bad shape, her source energy fluctuating wildly.
“Purple Spirit, White Feather, are you two alright?” Billy asked after a brief adjustment.
“We’re fine. How about you?” Purple Spirit responded.
“I’m fine too!” Billy shook his head. “You two should go back to the Nine Dragons Cauldron to rest!”
“Alright!” Purple Spirit replied before she and White Feather re-entered the Nine Dragons Cauldron.
Soon after, Billy withdrew from the Heavenly Xuan Space.
“Boss, what happened to that old man?” Stout asked upon seeing Billy.
“He self-destructed,” Billy replied calmly.
“Self-destructed?” Everyone was stunned.
“Mr. Billy is indeed a rare genius of our time. Impressive!” The Scholar exclaimed, while Tommy and Annalise also showed expressions of surprise.
They knew the black-robed man’s strength well. Even with the three of them combined, they couldn’t withstand a single move from him. Yet, Billy had forced him to self-destruct in such a short time. It was truly remarkable!
“You’re too kind,” Billy said with a faint smile before turning to Enchantress. “This shouldn’t affect our cooperation, right?”
“Of course not,” Enchantress smiled lightly. “He was simply outmatched; no one else is to blame.”
Her face showed no emotion as if the black-robed man had nothing to do with her.
She then pointed to a pitch-black door. “Let’s go inside.”
With that, she flew towards the door, and Billy and the others followed closely behind.
After passing through the door and flying for a while, they landed in an open space.
Billy and the others looked around and couldn’t help but marvel at the sight.
It was similar to the otherworld they encountered when they met Lady of Heaven. This place was also a self-contained space.
Endless mountain ranges stretched as far as the eye could see, and the spiritual energy here was much denser than outside!
The forest around them was filled with towering trees hundreds of meters tall, more impressive than any trees they had seen before. Even the rocks on the ground were much larger than those they had encountered previously.
Although the forest was quiet, Billy and the others could clearly sense an invisible aura of danger enveloping the entire void.
“Is this the Silent Ruins?” Stout asked after scanning the surroundings.
“This is just the outskirts,” Tommy pointed ahead. “The true Silent Ruins lies further inside, beyond a barrier.”
He then looked at Billy and his group. “Once we go inside, everyone needs to be careful.”
“Understood!” Everyone nodded simultaneously.
“Mr. Billy, let’s go,” Enchantress said to Billy before continuing forward.
After about fifteen minutes, they stopped in front of a massive stone wall, eighty or ninety meters high and several hundred meters long.
They noticed a semi-circular stone cave with a radius of several dozen meters at the center of the wall’s base. Ripples occasionally emanated from the cave entrance, indicating some sort of barrier.
“Mr. Billy, that’s the true entrance to the Silent Ruins Sky Realm,” Enchantress said to Billy.
“Just like before, you need to place the Skystone into that small hole above the cave entrance.”
“Got it,” Billy replied.
“Mr. Billy, think carefully. It’s easy to enter but hard to leave,” Tommy warned Billy.
“Elder Tommy, what do you mean?” Stout asked. “Can’t we leave anytime with the Skystone?”
“Stout, you’re so dense!” Felicia retorted. “Elder Tommy means that those inside won’t let us leave easily!”
“Alright,” Stout said before looking at Billy.
“Boss, maybe we shouldn’t go in. After all, you can already kill a proper Supreme Ancestry Realm expert. Those in Enchant Realm won’t dare mess with you!”
As he spoke, he glanced at Enchantress.
“Mr. Billy won’t go back on his word, right?” Enchantress smiled faintly at Billy.
“You must have other means,” Billy said as he looked at her.
Since he killed the black-robed man until now, he hadn’t seen any change in Enchantress’s expression or any intention of leaving.
There was only one possibility: Enchantress wasn’t afraid of him making a move!
“If Mr. Billy wants to try here, go ahead,” Enchantress smiled again. “But I can’t guarantee the consequences!”
“Three elders, wait outside for me. I’ll go in and take a look,” Billy said to Tommy and the others.
“It’s too dangerous for you to go alone. If you’re going in, we’ll go together,” The Scholar replied. “We three old men also want to see what this world is like!”
“Alright then,” Billy agreed without further persuasion.
He flew up to the cave entrance and inserted the Skystone into the small hole above it.
A chilling aura swept out from the cave, sending shivers down everyone’s spine.
“The seal is open; let’s go!” Tommy took a deep breath before leading everyone into the cave. Enchantress followed with a smile on her face.
Once everyone had entered, Billy retrieved the Skystone and followed them in.
About five or six minutes later, ripples appeared at the cave entrance again as the seal reactivated.
“Damn, these mountains are so high!” Judge exclaimed as he looked at the towering peaks before them.
Everyone else also showed expressions of surprise.
The peaks before them were indeed astonishingly tall, reaching into the clouds with mist swirling around their summits. No one knew how high they truly were.
The primeval forest on these mountains was similar to that outside the cave, with towering trees that seemed to reach endlessly into the sky.
Not far from them was a wide stone path that had been leveled by someone and wound its way into the distance.
“Mr. Billy, at the end of this path is a town where you’ll find someone named Sanaa. She knows where the entrance to higher-level star domains is,” Enchantress said to Billy.
“But I can’t guarantee she’ll tell you; she’s known to be difficult.”
“And one more thing: avoid conflicts here if possible; it will cause trouble.”
