In short, the three of them were very calm about this. They only cared about themselves and searched for treasures and various precious materials in the main city.

What was worth mentioning was that Old Tame Head’s eyes lit up almost the entire time.

After entering the Fallen City, he had seen too many things that he could only see in ancient books.

There were even some treasures that he had never heard of!

Of course, these things were still rare.

The terrifying experience of Old Tame Head shocked Xu You and Ling Lan.

There were a few times when the terrifying treasure guardian in the main city area almost caused an accident to happen to the Dragon Soul Team. In the end, they relied on Old Tame Head’s reminder and analysis to avert the danger.

Ling Lan did not say anything about this.

However, the emotions that surged in her eyes clearly told Xu You that she was very satisfied with the mystic realm guide he had found.

“It’s about time. We should hurry towards the center.”

Ling Lan stopped and spoke.

Hearing this, Xu You nodded.

During this process, they could already clearly sense a mysterious force slowly emerging from the center of the main city.

It was as if some precious treasure was about to appear!

This was not only the feeling of the two of them but also the feeling of all the mutants in the main city.

While Xu You and the other two were exploring the main city, they could clearly see that many mutants were rushing toward the center of the main city.

The expressions on their faces were also a little excited.

Old Tame Head shook his head at this moment and glanced southwest with a serious gaze.

“I just observed that the terrain nearby is a little strange. It goes from low to high in the southwest, as if it’s surrounding something.”

“It feels like an altar or something.”

“Such a place usually has precious treasures. This is one of the rules of the mystic realm.”

As he spoke, Old Tame Head squatted down and directly grabbed a little soil to taste with the tip of his tongue.

Then, the expression on his face became slightly serious.

“Hmm… If I’m not wrong, a precious treasure has appeared over there. It’s very likely an S-rank treasure or a mystic realm spirit treasure of the same level.”

For example, a treasure like the Condensed Divine Crystal that could only be produced in a mystic realm was collectively called a mystic realm spirit treasure.

Hearing this, Xu You and Ling Lan looked at each other and saw a trace of surprise in each other’s eyes.

Then, the two of them made a decision at the same time.

They had to take a look at this place!

Then, the three of them quickly changed direction.

It was not east of the center of the main city, but southwest.

The three of them rushed with all their might and arrived at a stone staircase about five minutes later.

Looking up, there were about a hundred stone steps here, and the distance between each floor was extremely high, about half a meter per floor.

A distant and grand aura that seemed to have attacked from ancient times immediately assaulted him.

“That thing should be up there.”

Old Tame Head looked a little excited.

He could clearly sense a mysterious and powerful force coming from above the stone steps.

“The stone steps here are very similar to the sacrificial steps built by kings in ancient kingdoms to receive the power of the Heavenly God!”

“Up there should be the altar of the Fallen City!”

Hearing this, Xu You and Ling Lan’s expressions changed slightly, but their faces were not surprised, but a little serious.

“There seems to be someone up there.” Xu You spoke.

Ling Lan quickly nodded. “Yes, I can hear the sounds of battle. Someone should have arrived before us.”

The two of them were not surprised. After all, there were definitely many people who entered the Fallen City this time.

Looking at each other, the three of them quickly strode towards the altar. The sounds of battle became clearer.

The moment they walked up to the altar, the vision in front of them suddenly became clear.

The scene of two black shadows fighting a person immediately appeared in front of the three of them.

Xu You frowned and swept his gaze above the altar.

Apart from these two shadows, there were dozens of corpses on the altar.

Moreover… they all looked like they had just died!

In the center of the altar was a huge cauldron.

At this moment, the two shadows and one person were continuously fighting around the cauldron.

That person’s outfit looked familiar to Xu You.

However, Xu You could not see his face clearly and could not confirm his identity.

As he thought, his gaze swept toward the two shadows.

These two phantoms were both wearing ancient priest robes. Their overall style was extremely similar to the Fallen City.

“The treasure here is in that cauldron.”

Old Tame Head pointed at the cauldron and his slightly excited voice interrupted Xu You’s thoughts.

It also made the person fighting the two phantoms notice Xu You and the other two and immediately turn around.

When he saw Xu You and the other two, he was immediately a little excited and hurriedly waved over.

“Heh, quickly come help. We’ll split the treasure equally later!”

Xu You was stunned, not because of this person’s words, but because of his familiar face.

Wasn’t this… the Zhang Ling who he thought was not very smart but was actually an S-rank mutant?!

Old Tame Head and Ling Lan clearly recognized him and their expressions immediately changed.

Zhang Ling seemed to have been a little too excited and directly headed in the direction of the three of them.

As a result, the two phantoms also noticed the three of them.

They seemed to have emotions. After noticing the three of them, they immediately treated them as Zhang Ling’s companions and launched a ferocious attack on them.

Ling Lan frowned and sent the old man far away with a soft palm strike. She immediately faced one of the phantoms.

At the same time, she glared at Zhang Ling.

“You’re really skilled at diverting the trouble!”

Ling Lan’s tone was a little cold.

However, Zhang Ling did not seem to understand. He smiled and thanked, “Thank you, beautiful sister, and this brother.”

Xu You glanced at him and did not answer. Instead, he directly faced the battle phantom.

In fact, the strength of the phantom was not too strong.

Zhang Ling could easily restrain it alone. Now that Ling Lan and Xu You had joined, it was naturally not difficult to resolve it.

During this process, Xu You could clearly sense that the Bottle of Life in his body was continuously providing him with strength during his battle.

It was as if the energy and stamina in his body had become inexhaustible.

It even made Xu You have the illusion that he could become stronger and stronger as he fought.

Fifteen minutes later, the two phantoms had already died under the siege of the three of them.

After the two phantoms were scattered at the same time, Zhang Ling suddenly heaved a sigh of relief and chuckled, “It’s finally settled.”

As he spoke, he turned to look at Xu You with a dense smile.
