Finally, as the ti approached 9 a.m.
Everyone looked at the Ancient Ruins that had stood for a day, their emotions complex.
Nervousness, anxiety, panic, anticipation, various emotions swelled within their hearts.
But no matter what they thought, ti would inevitably pass.
When 9 o’clock arrived, a blue light suddenly rose from the walls of these ancient ruins, quickly forming a barrier that enveloped the entire structure, as if it were a protective shield.
At the sa ti, even those standing outside the ruins could feel a strong attraction.
Ye Feng might not have felt anything notable, but the surrounding soldiers all seed a bit restless.
However, they were all professionally trained and quickly suppressed that strong desire to go forward.
At this mont, Ye Feng suddenly sensed sothing, his pupils shrank abruptly, and he hastily yelled towards Zhao Sheng not far away, "Quick, order the retreat."
At first, Zhao Sheng did not understand the aning of the Mutated Parrot.
But soon, he heard sporadic noises coming from the woods around them.
Mutated insects leaped and crawled out, rushing towards the ancient ruins as if mad.
If there were only a few, it wouldn’t be much of an issue, but judging by the commotion from the woods, Zhao Sheng knew the numbers would not be few.
And even greater noises were coming from afar, likely caused by Mutated Animals.
In other words, the area around the ancient temple would likely beco a gathering place for nearby Mutated Beings soon.
Realizing this, Zhao Sheng quickly issued the order to retreat.
The forces amassed near the Ancient Ruins numbered 30,000, and perhaps for this reason, the Mutated insects and Mutated Animals rushing toward them did not attack, but passed by rapidly.
Even so, the soldiers heightened their vigilance upon seeing one palm-sized Mutated insect after another.
However, these Mutated insects ultimately did nothing or, rather, their gaze was fixed solely on the Ancient Ruins.
In just a few seconds, a large swarm of Mutated insects had arrived in front of the Ancient Ruins, and with unabated montum, they continued to charge inside.
What followed was the sound of repeated thudding.
All the Mutated insects were intercepted by the blue barrier, and the speed with which they were bounced back matched the speed of their charge.
Seeing this, Ye Feng’s eyes narrowed slightly, confirming his suspicions—the blue barrier was indeed a protective shield.
However, looking at the Mutated insects that were repelled but quickly got up and returned to the blue screen, he let out a sigh of relief.
The Mutated insects were rely bounced away, not directly killed, which proved that the Ancient Ruins, as he had speculated, posed no significant danger.
At least, there should be no danger if one didn’t try to forcefully enter.
Watching those Mutated insects that were repelled and then ran back to scratch at the barrier, he thought for a mont and then walked over himself.
At that mont, Ye Feng was exuding the pressure of a Mid Stage Fourth Order, absolutely the strongest individual among all Mutated Beings present.
As he moved, the surrounding Mutated Beings quickly made way, not daring to co within 10 ters of Ye Feng.
Ye Feng approached the barrier, carefully sensing it and, after confirming it posed no danger to him, he extended a claw and kicked towards the barrier in front of him.
His sharp claws struck the barrier, creating a screeching friction sound, and the part of the barrier he attacked rippled with concentric circles.
But after kicking out with one claw, Ye Feng imdiately retracted it, his entire right claw feeling a bit numb.
The instant he attacked, a counter-shock as powerful as his own strike was transmitted through the barrier, acting directly upon his claw.
Clearly, it was this counter-shock that was responsible for the scene of the Mutated insects being bounced away earlier.
"The force of the counter-shock is the sa as my attack. It must be a minor warning," he mused.
"However..." Ye Feng glanced at the barrier, which had returned to its normal state, not forgetting the ripples that had emanated from his kick just monts before.
He suspected that the barrier had its limits and, naturally, regular Mutated Beings would definitely not be able to break it. Probably even normal Sixth Order Animals could not break through it.
But if he were to bring his true form here and unleash a force of tens of thousands of tons, perhaps he might be able to break the barrier.
After pondering briefly, Ye Feng decided not to make such a risky attempt.
On one hand, he was unsure whether breaking the barrier would trigger more intense retaliation.
On the other hand, he had entered the Ancient Ruins every day before; now it was certainly empty.
Unless he waited for the complete revival of the Ancient Ruins, breaking the barrier early would offer no benefits.
So rather than pondering so much, it was better to make more preparations, waiting for the barrier of the Ancient Ruins to disappear before entering to contend for resources.
Yes, to contend for resources.
After the Ancient Ruins fully erged, anyone who arrived would feel a strong sense that there was sothing valuable inside, sothing that could make one much stronger.
