Chapter 221: Entering the Ancient City_2

Translator: 549690339

Su Nan didn’t dare to take any chances and immediately looked at the Great Princess.

The Great Princess understood Su Nan’s intentions and cooperated with Su Nan to enter the Cosmic Ring.

After that, Su Nan put away his avatar and rushed straight towards the direction of the Soul eating Demons.

He wasn’t far from the area where Soul-eating Demons were roaming, but as soon as he dashed out, he was discovered by the Soul-eating Demons wandering on the outskirts and quickly surrounded.

When the Soul-eating Demons were only a hundred meters away from him, Su Nan reacted quickly and decisively exited the game.

His figure disappeared, however, the attracted Soul-eating Demons didn’t leave, but instead headed straight for the White Water Demon King.

Seeing the rapidly approaching swarm of Soul-eating Demons, the White Water Demon King was even more furious, but he had no choice but to turn and flee.

At this point, he couldn’t continue the fight against these demons, and taking action here would only attract even more Soul-eating Demons.

A full ten minutes passed.

White Water Demon King finally managed to shake off the swarm of Soul­eating Demons.

At this moment, his face was dark as water, and he looked extremely embarrassed.

Just then, three figures arrived quickly.

It was led by a Demon King named Thousand Eyes.

“White Water Demon King?”

“Didn’t he chase after that Outsider? How come he arrived here before us?”

Seeing the White Water Demon King, the three Demon Kings were all dumbfounded.

But then, noticing the Demon King’s wretched appearance, they gasped:

“What happened? What did White Water Demon King encounter to end up like this?”

The three Demon Kings were also somewhat embarrassed, and both the man and woman among them were injured, indicating that their journey had not been smooth.

However, compared to the White Water Demon King, their situation was much better.

The Demon King named Thousand Eyes reacted, laughing: “White Water Demon King, your speed is impressive, but it seems that you paid a hefty price!”

The White Water Demon King’s face grew even darker when Thousand Eyes mocked him. After a moment of silence, he said in a deep voice: “Thousand Eyes, I need your help to catch a little ant.”

Even if he didn’t want to admit it, he had to face reality.

He knew very well that with the abilities Su Nan had shown and his current state, capturing Su Nan would be difficult, let alone killing him.

Now, his only choice was to ask these three Demon Kings for help.

Exiting the game, Su Nan checked the time.

It was already two in the afternoon.

Since he had logged into the game at twelve o’clock last night, he had been busy in the game and could finally rest now.

He slept until over ten o’clock at night.

After eating some good food and with nothing to do, he habitually opened the forum and started browsing.

“Haha, the task of escorting the Divine Weapon is complete, and I’ve earned 3,000 contribution points!”

A post attracted the envy of many players and caught Su Nan’s attention.

People had already delivered the Divine Weapon so quickly?

Su Nan was surprised, checked the post, and realized that the player’s county was near Zhongtian County which allowed him to deliver the Divine Weapon as soon as he got it.

“It’s been almost three days since the end of the last Human Crisis side quest, and with eight counties falling, there are only four days and two hours left for the Human Crisis side quest.”

“This means that I must send the two Divine Weapons to Zhongtian County within four days!”

Su Nan’s face was solemn. Before, he had only thought about obtaining the Divine Weapon, and hadn’t considered the escort process would be so difficult.

Compared to him, however, other players escorting the Divine Weapons were much more fortunate.

It wasn’t that they weren’t being chased by demons, but rather that they had help from other players.

The demons could only find marked players, so as long as other players escorted the Divine Weapon, the marked problem could be solved well.

However, doing so had a problem: even if the Divine Weapons were delivered, those who handed over the Divine Weapons to others would not be rewarded. The rewards would belong only to the players who eventually delivered the Divine Weapons.

Fortunately, handing over the Divine Weapons to other players didn’t count as a task failure.

Many people speculated that as long as the Divine Weapons didn’t fall into the hands of the demon clan, it wouldn’t count as a failure.

This made many influences offer sky-high prices, wanting to buy the qualification to escort divine weapons from players who obtained them.

“Human experts in Zhongtian County have already begun arranging the Heavenly Dome Divine Prohibition, but it is said that there will be a brief gap when the Heavenly Dome Divine Prohibition is completed.”

“During that period, the power of the Heavenly Dome Divine Prohibition will temporarily drop to a low point, and the demon clan is likely to try to destroy the Formation again at that time.”

Players from Zhongtian County had obviously already taken the follow-up branch tasks of the Human Crisis Task and obtained information that ordinary players could not obtain.

Seeing this, Su Nan’s eyes lit up.

“The demon clan will attempt to act again?”

“Doesn’t that mean I will have another chance to get a large number of contribution points?”

Now he has many contribution points, with Zhang Yang contributing more than 20,000, but it is still far from the 40,000 contribution points required to exchange for ancient scriptures.

If he could have another great harvest like the last time, he would be sure to have enough contribution points to exchange for an ancient scripture.

Moreover, by that time, his strength would be even stronger, and perhaps he would get more contribution points.

“I hope I can find Zhou Lingyin smoothly this time, otherwise, let alone contribution points, it would be a problem whether I can deliver the divine weapon to Zhongtian County.”

Looking at the time, Su Nan waited quietly.

Finally, the time came to twelve o’clock.

He logged into the game immediately.

In the game, as soon as Su Nan appeared, he didn’t give a thought and used the Across the Heavens Shift directly.

Just as he used the Across the Heavens Shift, a loud shout sounded:

“You insignificant ants finally showed up!”

Su Nan’s heart was filled with alarm as he instantly saw four attacks from different directions bombing towards him!

White Water Demon King had actually joined forces with the other three Demon Kings to attack him!

Su Nan was shocked and scared. If others faced such a situation, they might not be able to escape.

Fortunately, at this moment, the effect of Across the Heavens Shift had already taken effect, and his figure disappeared just as the four attacks struck.

The attacks of the Four Demon Kings fell, and the place Su Nan had just been standing was leveled by their powerful strength.

“Is he dead?”

A male and female demon frowned. They had also killed Outsiders before and knew that Outsiders would disappear instantly upon death, but the situation just now seemed different.

White Water Demon King’s face was ugly, and he immediately looked towards the ancient city in the distance.

“He has already entered that ancient city!”

Su Nan’s figure appeared in a dilapidated temple, and in front of him was a middle-aged divine statue.

Without time to think, he looked to foresee immediately.

[You used Across the Heavens Shift to successfully bypass the barriers formed by Corpse Puppets and Soul-eating Demons and reach the deepest part of the Divine Ruins.)

[This is a broken ancient city that has existed for countless years. Some people speculate that it came from an even more ancient era before the Ancient Times, and it was once one of the many main cities of a place called the “Heavenly Kingdom of Gods Dynasty.”]

[There are twelve temples and thirty-six ancient temples here. Each ancient temple and temple once contained terrifying power. Once entering carelessly, even emperor-level powerhouses may lose their lives.]

[Unfortunately, you have entered one of these ancient temples. Fortunately, you have received the blessing of the Joyful Deity, and the remaining power in the ancient temple did not attack you immediately.)

“So, the blessing of the Joyful Deity also has this use?”

Su Nan’s eyes lit up.

If the blessing of the Joyful Deity can prevent him from being attacked by the forces of the ancient temples and temples, doesn’t that mean he can enter any temples and ancient temples as he pleases?

[You try to search in the ancient temple. A minute later, you find your gaze falling on a longsword in the hand of the divine statue.]

[You reach out for the longsword, but the moment you touch it, the divine statue undergoes a change, turning into a terrifying and weird-looking demon.]

[The demon does not attack you directly but calls you the “inheritor” and tells you that if you want to obtain his Divine Seal, you must first pass his test.]

[As the demon speaks, it suddenly attacks you. You react quickly and immediately release the Great Princess from the Cosmic Ring, intending to deal with the demon together with the Great Princess.]

[Unfortunately, your actions anger the demon, and its power surge.]

[You and the Great Princess are no match for the demon.]

[You are dead.]
