As the senior sister among the group, the woman finally realized the problem and stopped the last youth from going out, preventing total annihilation.
âNow itâs best for us to stay put and wait for our sect to send people to rescue us,â the woman said solemnly.
After saying this, she ignored the youth and continued to study the chessboard, believing that the key to escaping might be on it.
Time passed, and it was impossible to tell how long it had been.
Suddenly, there were faint footsteps in the dead silent space. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âSomeoneâs coming!â
Hearing the sound, the woman immediately stopped studying the chessboard and looked in the direction of the sound, only to see a young man slowly walking towards her.
âOnly one person?â Seeing Su Nan alone, the womanâs heart sank.
When she saw Su Nanâs unfamiliar face, her expression tightened even more.
âWho are you?â
The woman questioned him; in this dangerous space, encountering an unfamiliar person was not something anyone could take lightly.
âYou must be Liu Qingâer, right?â Su Nan looked at the woman and said.
âYou know me? Is our sect the one who sent you?â Upon hearing Su Nan call her name, Liu Qingâer let out a sigh of relief.
In her opinion, since Su Nan knew her, he must have come to save her.
Su Nan shook his head and said, âIâm not fromTaixu Sect, and I wasnât sent by your sect either.â
âYouâre not from our sect?â Hearing Su Nanâs words, Liu Qingâer was greatly disappointed, and then felt puzzled, wondering why someone who neither knew her nor belonged to Taixu Sect would come here to find her.
Before she had time to think more, Liu Qingâer immediately said, âDo not come near. Once you enter this Stone Pavilion, you will not be able to leave. Notify Taixu Sect, only they can save us.â
âDonât worry, since I could come here, I naturally have a way to save you.â Su Nan disregarded her concerns and walked straight into the Stone Pavilion.
Seeing Su Nan approaching, Liu Qingâer wanted to say something but considering her current situation, she remained quiet.
Now, she just hoped that Su Nan really had the ability to save them.
Su Nan came to the Stone Pavilion and said, âI can take you out of here, but I need your cooperation.â
âHow do you want us to cooperate with you?â asked the youth who had not spoken until now, excitedly and quickly.
âThis is the Cosmic Ring. You need to enter it temporarily.â Su Nan took out the Cosmic Ring.
He had the Across the Heavens Shift, so the power of the Stone Pavilion couldnât hold him, but to save the two people, he could only let them enter the Cosmic Ring.
There was nothing in the Cosmic Ring now; the Great Princess and the Dragon Turtle had been transferred to the Mountain and Water Gourd, which was a more suitable place for people to stay.
âA Cosmic Ring, how do you have such a treasure?â Liu Qingâer was amazed and looked at Su Nan incredulously.
A Cosmic Ring was not something ordinary; even the King-level Elders in her sect did not have one. She couldnât understand how Su Nan, a Spirit Level martial artist, could have such an item.
âDonât ask questions you shouldnât ask. Now, if you want to leave, just cooperate with me.â Su Nanâs voice became slightly heavy.
Actually, he could have just given her the item that Han Fu had entrusted to him and completed the task without having to save Liu Qingâer.
But since he had come all the way here, he didnât mind helping them out.
Liu Qingâer frowned, but eventually cooperated with Su Nan and entered the Cosmic Ring.
Afterward, Su Nan used the Across the Heavens Shift and easily moved out of the Stone Pavilion.
Originally, he thought of using the Across the Heavens Shift to try to enter those palaces; unfortunately, his foreknowledge indicated that he could enter the palace successfully, but it would also mean death.
A few minutes later.
Outside Old Horse Lake, Su Nan let Liu Qingâer and the young man out.
âWe made it! We really made it!â
Seeing the familiar lake surface, the youth was overjoyed, his eyes filled with the joy of surviving a catastrophe.
âWe actually made it out?â Liu Qingâer looked at Su Nan with amazement and disbelief in her eyes.
Considering that Su Nanâs strength seemed to be only at the Spirit Level, she couldnât understand how he had done it.
Once they were sure they were safe, Liu Qingâer finally thought of another question and asked immediately, âYouâre not from our sect, why did you come to save us? How do you know my name?â
âThereâs a person named Han Fu who asked me to give you this item.â Su Nan took out the ring Han Fu had given him.
âElder Brother Han? Elder Brother Han isnât dead? Where is he?â Upon hearing Su Nanâs words, Liu Qingâer immediately became agitated and asked anxiously.
âHe was in Kun Tian Prison before, but I donât know if heâs alive now.â Su Nan didnât elaborate and continued, âHe promised me that he would give me one of the strange treasures he got in his early years as a reward.â
Liu Qingâer took the storage ring, but did not open it immediately, instead she said coldly, âKun Tian Prison? What kind of place is that? How is Han Fu now?â
Liu Qingâer clearly hadnât heard of Kun Tian Prison, staring at Su Nan, as if she wanted to force Su Nan to reveal all the information.
Just as Liu Qingâer took the Storage Ring, a task completion prompt appeared:
[Congratulations, you have completed the daily task âFulfill Han Fuâs requestâ, and 45 Demon Power Points have been issued.]
[Current available Demon Power: 156 points]
He still needed four more demon power points, just enough to upgrade a bloodline to Great Perfection.
Ignoring the Demon Power, Su Nan looked at Liu Qingâer, his face slightly sinking.
He didnât expect Liu Qingâer to be so ungrateful. Instead of thanking him for rescuing her, she questioned him now.
Naturally, Su Nan wouldnât indulge Liu Qingâer and said indifferently: âIf I can save you, I can send you back.â
Liu Qingâer realized her attitude and took a deep breath, âIâm sorry, I just want to know where Han Fu is.â
Su Nan said, âIf you want to know about Kun Tian Prison, search it yourself. Now open the Storage Ring and give me my things.â
Liu Qingâer hesitated slightly, but eventually opened the Storage Ring using the specific method.
As soon as the Storage Ring opened, Su Nan did not give Liu Qingâer a chance to look, stretched out his hand to take the Storage Ring back.
Liu Qingâer noticed Su Nanâs intention and tried to stop him.
But how could she stop Su Nan? In an instant, she felt her mind go blank and lost consciousness.
By the time she regained her consciousness, the Storage Ring had been returned to her by Su Nan, who was holding a white, palm-sized key in his hand.
âKun Tian Prison is not something you can handle, I advise you to give up.â
Su Nan said and left without looking back, leaving a stunned Liu Qingâer behind.
âSenior sister Liu, whatâs wrong?â The young man on the side anxiously asked.
Liu Qingâer snapped out of it and immediately asked, âHow long did I just lose consciousness for?â
âAs soon as that person took the Storage Ring from your hand, you stood in place, for about three breaths.â
âThree breaths!â Liu Qingâerâs forehead broke out in a cold sweat, and she felt a chill down her spine.
How could she lose consciousness for as long as three breaths under someoneâs Divine Soul Attack?
âWho is he?â Looking in the direction Su Nan left, Liu Qingâer was filled with doubt and astonishment.
[Heavenly Gate Key: Collecting 98 Heavenly Gate Keys can activate the Heavenly Gate.]
âItâs this kind of thing!â
Su Nan was surprised and flipped his hand, taking out another identical key.
It was the reward from the previous Survival Challenge.
He originally thought these things were like other items, belonging to the game props, but he didnât expect to encounter them again this time.
âWhat kind of place is the Heavenly Gate, after all?â
â I wonder if I can still get the Heavenly Gate Key after this Human Crisis Task ends?â
Su Nan was curious and couldnât help but want to visit Tiangong Pavilion.
Unfortunately, this was far from the Imperial City. If he returned now, it would take a dayâs time back and forth, and he had no time to waste.
He left his avatar in Jin Shu Town, while his main body returned to Qian Shou Town.
Compared to yesterday, there were more players in Qian Shou Town today, and there were even many martial artists patrolling near Qian Shou Town.
If one stood at a high place and looked at the distant view of Qian Shou Town, they would see that dozens of miles from Qian Shou Town, the boundary of Zhongtian County was filled with many demons waiting.
They were waiting for the moment when the Heavenly Dome Divine Prohibition power disappeared.
âEverything is almost ready. Iâm just waiting for the task to start. I wonder how many contributions I can get this time.â Su Nan looked at the items in the Contribution Mall, his eyes full of anticipation.
Time passed quickly.
In the blink of an eye, it was 11pm in the real world, and on the panel, the task countdown had only one hour left.
