In the camps of the sects above the Kushao ruins, a group of disciples were heading to a tent.

"Elder, may we come in?" One of the disciples spoke.

"Enter," A voice was heard.

The three disciples lifted the flap of the tent and entered it. In there, they could see a relatively simple interior, with a bed, a table, a chair and a meditation pillow. An elder was currently sitting at the table and reading through a jade slip.

His eyes were closed, but his spirit sense was alert.

"What is it?" The elder asked, while keeping his eyes closed.

"Our progress has been steady and we are expecting to be able to enter the ruins by tonight." The leading disciple spoke.

Hearing this, the elder opened his eyes and gazed at the disciples.

"And the normal opening of the ruins?" the elder asked next.

"We think it might open tomorrow." A second disciple replied.

"Hmm… so we get a day's lead… good! That will be enough for us to gain an advantage." The elder said with a smile.

"Shall we inform the others to get ready?" The leading disciple asked.

"Hmm, get our sect disciples ready first. We will inform the allies an hour before we go." The elder said in a sly tone.

The disciples understood his meaning and cupped their hands in greeting before turning around to leave.

But just as they were stepping out of the tent, the ground started to shake. The sand around the ruins rippled, and it looked like a calamity was about to happen.

"EARTHQUAKE!"

"GATHER UP! GATHER UP!"

People became startled by the sudden phenomenon and tried to save themselves. Thankfully, this was a desert and there weren't really things that could fall on them and hurt them.

Plus, the sand below them could act as a cushion too. But that was if there was no danger underneath them.
