Ch 330: Entering the Ruins

It’s like how rivers, no matter how winding and tortuous, eventually flow into the sea.

Jiang Chen’s brow furrowed slightly, a faint sense of unease rising in his heart.

He knew that although the mystical power, 【Reverse Knowledge of the Future】, was powerful, it also had its limitations.

With his current strength, he was simply not strong enough to see the full picture of the future, only able to glimpse some fragmented pieces.

And these fragments were often just one possibility of the future, not an absolute certainty.

“Could it be that the future really cannot be changed?” Jiang Chen thought to himself, a hint of unwillingness flashing in his eyes.

He was unwilling to accept such an ending, even more unwilling to be bound by fate.

However, no matter how he deduced, the images of the future never changed much.

This made him feel uneasy, as if an invisible shadow was shrouding his heart.

“Perhaps, I am too obsessed with deducing the future.”

Jiang Chen murmured softly, a hint of self-deprecation in his tone.

He knew that his current strength was far from enough, and if he forcibly tried to glimpse the full picture of the future, he would probably suffer a backlash.

Thinking of this, Jiang Chen slowly opened his eyes, a hint of determination flashing in his gaze.

He knew that instead of dwelling on the uncertainty of the future, it was better to focus on the cultivation before him.

Only by constantly improving his strength could he take the initiative in the changes of the future.

“Jin Yin.” Jiang Chen suddenly spoke, a hint of coldness in his voice.

Jin Yin trembled all over upon hearing this, and quickly stepped forward and respectfully said, “Senior, what are your orders?”

Jiang Chen glanced at it and said indifferently, “For the next ten days, you will stay here and guard this place well. If you dare to make the slightest move, you will bear the consequences.”

Jin Yin nodded quickly, a hint of fear in its voice, “Yes! Senior, I will definitely do my best and dare not slack off in the slightest.”

Jiang Chen ignored Jin Yin and closed his eyes again, beginning to adjust his breathing and cultivate.

Approximately ten days later, Jiang Chen and Jin Yin were suspended in mid-air.

Their gazes were fixed on the sea below. On the originally boundless sea, a small island with a radius of over a thousand zhang was slowly emerging.

The island seemed to rise from the seabed, carrying an ancient and mysterious aura, gradually revealing its full appearance.

“The ruins of Xuanmiao Zhenren! It really is the ruins of Xuanmiao Zhenren!” Jin Yin’s voice trembled with excitement, its eyes flashing with ecstatic light.

Its wings trembled slightly, obviously unable to suppress the excitement in its heart, “I knew it! Grandfather didn’t lie to me! Grandfather didn’t lie to me!”

However, there was no joy on Jiang Chen’s face.

In the past ten days, he had seen this scene countless times in his deductions using 【Reverse Knowledge of the Future】.

He knew that the appearance of this island was just the beginning, and the real challenge was yet to come.

“Chuā!”

Jiang Chen ignored Jin Yin’s excitement, his figure flashed, and he descended from the sky, stepping onto the land of the island in the blink of an eye.

His movements were swift and decisive, as if he knew everything about this place like the back of his hand.

The scene on the island was almost exactly the same as what he had seen in his deductions.

The ground was covered with ancient runes, and the air was filled with a faint spiritual power, as if telling the story of its past glory.

Jiang Chen came to the entrance of the ruins with practiced ease, his gaze falling on the complex formation at the entrance.

This formation was composed of countless runes, each rune emitting a faint light, obviously to seal the things in the cave.

To enter this cave, one must break this formation.

Without the slightest hesitation, Jiang Chen quickly waved his hands, condensing strands of True Qi at his fingertips, accurately striking the key nodes of the formation. Since he had simulated it many times in his deductions, he had long been familiar with the method of breaking this formation.

“Kacha—!”

With a crisp sound, the runes on the formation began to gradually crack, and the light also dimmed.

Jiang Chen’s movements did not stop at all, his hands dancing in the air like phantoms, and soon he completely broke the entire formation.

As the formation was broken, many complex inscriptions suddenly lit up on the stone wall at the entrance of the cave.

Those inscriptions flickered with golden light, as if telling some ancient secret.

Jiang Chen’s gaze swept over these inscriptions, a hint of thought flashing in his eyes.

However, before he could study them carefully, a dazzling light suddenly burst out from the entrance of the cave.

Jiang Chen only felt a blur before his eyes, and his figure was instantly wrapped in a powerful force. The next moment, his figure disappeared from the spot.

“Senior!”

Jin Yin exclaimed in shock upon seeing this.

It quickly flew to the entrance of the cave, only to find that it was empty, leaving only those flickering inscriptions and the remaining traces of the formation.

“This! How is this possible!”

Jin Yin, who was beside him, couldn’t help but widen his eyes at this scene, muttering to himself in disbelief.

Its pupils contracted slightly, obviously shocked beyond words by the scene before him.

You must know that its grandfather had spent nearly fifty years to find a way to break this formation.

During that time, grandfather studied day and night, read countless ancient books, and even risked his life to test the formation, finally figuring out the secrets of this formation.

But this human being in front of him broke this formation so easily, as if all this was just a piece of cake for him.

“Could this person be a Formation Master among humans?” Jin Yin was full of doubts and couldn’t help but guess to himself.

It had heard that there were some cultivators among humans who specialized in the study of formations. They were proficient in the construction and breaking methods of various formations, and could even use the power of formations to fight against powerful enemies.

If Jiang Chen was really a Formation Master with profound strength, then all this seemed to make sense.

However, Jin Yin’s heart was still full of shock and incomprehension.

Even if Jiang Chen was a Formation Master, the complexity of this formation was far beyond ordinary. Even a Formation Master among humans could not break it in such a short period of time. What’s more, Jiang Chen’s movements were so skilled, as if he knew this formation like the back of his hand, which simply exceeded its scope of cognition.

Just as Jin Yin fell into self-doubt, Jiang Chen’s figure had disappeared at the entrance of the ruins. The inscriptions at the entrance of the cave still flickered with a faint light, as if telling some ancient secret.

Seeing this scene, Jin Yin’s eyes moved instantly, and a strong impulse surged in its heart ━ now was a great time for it to escape!

Jiang Chen had entered the ruins, and if it took the opportunity to leave, it might be able to save its life.

However, just as it was about to turn around and leave, it suddenly felt a little unwilling in its heart.
