Yang Yuan glanced at the eager Tan Zhiming and said, "This Ancient Ruins gives me the feeling of playing a game and clearing a dungeon. The so-called challenge is like fighting small monsters first, and ultimately facing the ultimate boss."

"Playing a game..."

"Clearing a dungeon?"

Everyone was stunned.

Yang Yuan continued, "It's not just my personal feeling. When I completed the tenth challenge, a voice appeared in my mind asking if I wanted to challenge the ultimate boss."

"No way, there really is an ultimate boss?" Tan Zhiming's eyes lit up.

"Big... cough, Brother Yuan, are you sure it's the ultimate boss and not a stage boss?"

Zhang Peng asked uncertainly, feeling a bit uneasy: "Why does it feel a bit off to me?"

Counselor Chen Xianzhi also nodded, "It does seem a bit off that suddenly there's an ultimate boss instead of a stage boss. A boss that can be called 'ultimate' is definitely not simple."

Jia Weixin frowned and said, "Could it be that the so-called ultimate boss is a Celestial-level Creature that was suppressed and sealed?"

"It's possible."

Yang Yuan said, "That's why I didn't continue the challenge; furthermore, I suggest stopping others from challenging because I have a feeling that as more Xu Race entities are killed, some sort of power within the Ancient Ruins is slowly dissipating, possibly weakening the seal suppressing the ultimate boss..."

"Brother Yuan, look..." Suddenly, Zhang Peng pointed into the distance and exclaimed in surprise.

When Yang Yuan and the others turned around, they saw a fleeting glimpse of a rotting creature.

It wasn't the other party moving, but a projected image.

"Over there..." Tan Zhiming pointed in another direction.

When they looked over, they found another rotting creature had appeared in their field of vision, this time not disappearing right away.

As they watched, the rotting creature also looked over at them and let out a roar.

But soon, there was a fluctuation in space, and the rotting creature vanished from view.

"Boom..."

At that moment, the whole Ancient Ruins started shaking.

In an instant, everyone present was terrified.

"What's happening?"

"What's going on?"

Everyone who came to watch was bewildered and at a loss. Many Superpower Users who thought they were strong enough and prepared to challenge the Xu Race entities were so scared they ran back immediately.

"Roar—"

A low roar that seemed like it could freeze one's blood echoed, like thunder exploding in their minds.

The low roar carried a clearly excited emotion, as if it had suddenly gained freedom after being suppressed and sealed for countless years.

Instantly, Yang Yuan, Jia Weixin, and the others felt like their heads were about to explode.

"Is that Celestial-level monster about to escape?" Tan Zhiming was so scared he almost wet himself.

"Whoosh!"

Yang Yuan suddenly flashed to the edge of the Xu Race's architecture, without hesitation returning ninety percent of the energy in his body that he hadn't absorbed.

"Buzz—"

One of the Xu Race entities was instantly empowered, and its aura surged.

Then that special power within the Ancient Ruins strengthened again.

"Roar—"

Suddenly, that previous low and excited roar turned into an enraged bellow.

"As expected, it's a major trap!"

Yang Yuan sneered, keeping one-tenth of the Mysterious Energy as a research sample, then quickly returned.

"Damn, Brother Yuan, what did you do? The roar suddenly sounds incredibly angry..." Tan Zhiming exclaimed in shock.

"I returned the power just obtained from the battle stage."

Yang Yuan sneered, "Those Xu Race entities seem to be the power that suppresses that Celestial-level Creature. The Xu Race entities and the seal on the Ancient Ruins are like one. Killing those Xu Race entities is equivalent to weakening the seal."

As for the secrets behind the Xu Race entities occupying human bodies to escape the cage, he knew nothing about that.

"I see, then we absolutely can't let anyone continue the challenge."

Chen Xianzhi looked extremely grim, immediately instructing someone to spread the news.

Once Chen Xianzhi passed on the message, Jia Weixin anxiously asked, "Mr. Yang Yuan, can you leave now?"

"It seems possible, like there's some sort of temporary access."

Yang Yuan said, "I'll try shortly..."

"Report!!!"

Suddenly, a soldier rushed over, shouting with excitement, "Report!!! The door has been opened, we've found a passage to leave the Ancient Ruins!!"

"Really?!"

"That's great!!!"

Everyone instantly rejoiced.

Not only Jia Weixin and the others, but even those who came to watch, and those who were about to challenge the Xu Race entities to gain exit access, were ecstatic.

Because they all roughly guessed that the so-called challenge might be an enormous trap.

Killing the Xu Race entities could likely weaken the seal suppressing the Celestial-level monster.

Under such circumstances, how could they dare continue the challenge?

So upon suddenly hearing they can leave, how could they not be overjoyed?

Jia Weixin immediately said, "Mr. Yang Yuan, please come with us through the passage, to avoid getting separated."

"Alright."

Yang Yuan did not refuse because who knows if leaving with the access provided by the Ancient Ruins might also be a trap?

So taking the path they opened themselves was more reliable.

The group quickly headed for the original location of the Safe Zone.

Yang Yuan headed straight for his little Safe House.

Meanwhile, military personnel took out a megaphone and loudly announced, "The passage to leave the Ancient Ruins has been found. Everyone follow us there, but there will be no pushing or cutting in line. Anyone causing chaos will be shot on the spot!"

Instantly, those eager to leave suppressed their urges.

The military's deterrence was still formidable, as the majority of powerful Superpower Users had joined the military.

"Roar—"
