“Earth God Temple? You can only encounter such a thing deep in the Divine Ruins. Have you already ventured deep into the Divine Ruins?” The Great Princess’s pretty face darkened, somewhat disbelieving.

This was not good news for her. The Divine Ruins were extremely dangerous, and one might not even know how they died if they ventured deep into them.’ “With your strength, how did you avoid those Soul-eating Demons?” The Great Princess was curious.

From the strength of Su Nan’s Divine Soul, she could roughly judge his strength.

In her opinion, it was already quite good for Su Nan, with his current strength to wander around the outer edge of the Divine Ruins. It was impossible for him to venture deep into them.

Even in her current state, she could only rely on luck to leave the Divine Ruins safely, even if she left the Cosmic Ring.

I guess I was just lucky.” Naturally, Su Nan wouldn’t admit that he had foreknowledge.

“Lucky?” The Great Princess fell silent, deep in thought.

Amoment later, she continued, “Let me go, and I’ll tell you!”

As expected, the Great Princess’s condition had not changed, and she still demanded that Su Nan release her.

Su Nan naturally wouldn’t agree: “I suggest you give up this unrealistic idea. If I let you go, what’s the difference between that and committing suicide?” The Great Princess sneered, “Then prepare to wait for death!”

Su Nan wasn’t in a hurry and said, “You should be weU aware of the dangers of the Divine Ruins. As far as I know, if I, the caster, die, you, the one the technique was cast on, won’t be any better off.”

“If I die, not to mention whether or not you’ll be trapped in this Cosmic Ring forever, even in your current state, I’m afraid you’ll incur even worse injuries,” Since the Bloodline Coexistence Technique had the word ‘coexistence’, it naturally bound both the caster and the one the technique was cast on. Whether the caster died or the one the technique was cast on died, the impact on the other party was significant.

Initially, he managed to turn the situation in his favor because he had attempted suicide, causing the backlash of the technique against the Great Princess.

“Hmph! Although I don’t know howyou changed the Bloodline Coexistence Technique, if you want to use this to threaten me, then you’ve miscalculated ” The Great Princess’s voice was cold, showing no signs of giving in.

Su Nan fell silent and looked at the panel, preparing to use his ability to foresee the future.

However, at this moment, the Great Princess seemed to have thought of something and finally acquiesced, “I need some items to restore my vitality. If you can find them, I might as well tell you what I know.”

Items to restore vitality?

Su Nan understood what the Great Princess was trying to do.

Since the Great Princess was of the Secret Power System, like him, she naturally could transform vitality into Essence Energy and then use Essence Energy to quickly heal her injuries.

Okay!” Without much hesitation, Su Nan gave a bottle of Life-Extending Pills to the Great Princess.

Now that they were in the bizarre Divine Ruins, they might still need the Great Princess’s help. So, if they could slightly improve their relationship now, it would be for the best.

Upon receiving the Life-Extending Pills, the Great Princess sensed the rich vitality within them and showed delight in her eyes. She then said, “I’ve only entered the Divine Ruins once, so my understanding of them is limited.” “In the Divine Ruins, there’s a mysterious phenomenon called Bizarre Relics. Here, you often encounter ancient temples, shrines, and other architectural relics from ancient times.”

Those ancient temples and shrines do not always exist in one place. Instead, they appear at random, with no pattern to follow.”

These buildings are taboo in the Divine Ruins and are absolutely forbidden to enter. Once you enter, your Divine Soul may be swallowed by an unknown existence, and you will eventually become a soulless walking corpse.” Appear randomly? How could that be possible?

Su Nan was astonished. He couldn’t understand how a building could appear randomly.

“Many people who enter the Divine Ruins know about this taboo, but knowing it doesn’t mean they will follow it.”

“Some people enter the Divine Ruins to hunt for treasure, and they naturally won’t miss out on those ancient temples and shrines. And there are others who are influenced by the power of those ancient temples and shrines, unknowingly entering them.”

Su Nan nodded.

It was clear that he belonged to the latter group.

‘If it’s the former, they are either bold because of their high skill or simply seeking death.”

“If it’s the latter, it’s even more of a dead end. If you’re influenced by the power of these ancient temples and shrines, it means you can’t resist the remaining power inside those ancient temples and shrines. Entering them is undoubtedly

“You’ve just encountered an ancient temple and haven’t entered yet, so there’s still a chance to make amends. All you need to do is not approach the temple and go in another direction.”

Can he escape the Earth God Temple by going in another direction?

Su Nan frowned.

The method mentioned by the Great Princess is clearly different from the situation he encountered.

If changing direction could solve the problem, he wouldn’t have come to consult the Great Princess.

“What if changing direction also doesn’t work?” Su Nan said in a deep voice. ”Unable to escape?” The Great Princess was slightly surprised and said, “You’ve already tried changing your direction, but you still can’t escape from that ancient temple?”

“Yes.” Su Nan nodded, briefly describing what had happened earlier.

The Great Princess fell silent. At length, she said, “You’re finished.”

Upon hearing this, Su Nan’s heart sank, and he immediately asked, “What do you mean?”

The Great Princess replied, “What you’ve described is a very rare phenomenon, one that only a few people might ever encounter.”

“The Divine Ruins have existed since ancient times. Countless powerful people have explored this place, but only a few have ever recorded anything similar to your current situation.”

“And the end result for those people wasn’t good-they never made it out of the Divine Ruins.”

“They all died?” Su Nan’s heart instantly plummeted to rock bottom.

This was something he didn’t want to face.

“No one knows why.”

The Great Princess shook her head: “Under normal circumstances, you can avoid entering the influence of those ancient temples as long as you possess a sufficiently strong Divine Soul Power.”

“But judging by your current situation, it’s clearly not as simple as just having weak Divine Soul Power.”

Would he be able to escape under normal circumstances if his Divine Soul Power was strong enough?

Su Nan’s heart moved.

Looking back at the foreknowledge panel, he decided to take a gamble In the foreknowledge, he tried to use all of his Primordial Qi and Essence Energy to support his Divine Soul Power.

Unfortunately, earlier, in order to tackle the Swift Great Demons that were chasing him, he had used Starlight Netherworld Body.

The side effect of Starlight Netherworld Body was the same as the Berserk Netherworld Body – all three powers (Essence Energy, Primordial Qi, and Divine Soul) would be reduced by half within a day.

This reduction affected both the upper limit of his three powers and their capabilities.

Even if he used the Life Energy to convert Essence Energy, he couldn’t recover.

[You know that once you cross the small hill in front of you, you’ll encounter a strange phenomenon in the Divine Ruins due to the interference of an unknown Qi Luck. You’ll be entangled by an ancient temple left behind by the “Heavenly Kingdom of Gods Dynasty”.]

[From the Skywolf Clan Princess, you learn that powerful Divine Soul Power may resist the power of the ancient temple. You intend to try imbuing your Divine Soul with Primordial Qi and Essence Energy.]

[Your main body and avatar climb over the small hill together. Indeed, you see a dilapidated ancient building about 100 meters away from you.]

“Unknown Qi Luck? Influenced by unknown Qi Luck again?”

“What is this Qi Luck that has it in for me?”

Just as the foreknowledge began, its contents changed Su Nan’s expression again.

Maybe this time, because he gained a deeper understanding of the Divine Ruins, the foreknowledge finally offered him a hint, revealing that everything was due to the influence of unknown Qi Luck.

However, this didn’t help at all but only made him more confused.

He couldn’t understand what Qi Luck was constantly affecting him.

Having been affected by unknown Qi Luck two times in a row, Su Nan had a bad premonition.

He felt that perhaps in these Divine Ruins, he would encounter endless bizarre incidents due to the unknown Qi Luck!

[You channel all your Primordial Qi and Essence Energy into your Divine Soul Power. Your Divine Soul Power erupts, rivaling that of a mid-stage Xuan-level Great Demon capable of controlling Divine Soul Power.]

[Unfortunately, your Divine Soul Power is still too weak. When passing by the

Earth God Temple, you cannot resist entering it.]

[You arrive at the Earth God Temple and pay your respects to the Land God statue.]

[You die.]

[Your divine soul is devoured by an unknown entity, making you a walking corpse.]
