Fang Jun managed to escape; even the barriers created by the Demigods couldn't stop him from leaving.

His power has already touched upon the rules of time; mere spatial limitations cannot affect him.

He returned to the position he had been in twenty minutes ago, and his physical condition also returned to what it had been twenty minutes ago.

He was not injured at this moment, and his body was completely unharmed.

Although he escaped, he felt no joy whatsoever.

He never expected that the dozens of Demigods he had painstakingly rescued would be controlled by the BOSS and become his enemies.

He essentially increased the difficulty of the Instance for himself.

Although he has decided to abandon this Instance, he is still unable to leave Instance.

He didn't leave the Instance with any items. Although these items were rare, it wouldn't be too difficult for someone of his status to obtain them.

He just didn't care much about those props, because he didn't feel he needed to use them at all.

If he wants to leave this Instance now, he can only wait until the teleportation point opens.

With about three hours left before the teleportation point opened, he believed he could hold out until then, thanks to the Instance's bonus effects.

However, leaving like this was far too humiliating; he had never been like this before.

However, this defeat was unavoidable. Nevertheless, being able to fight this boss beforehand will be helpful for later Special Instance.

We can't kill this boss now, but he definitely won't let it go when the Special Instance opens.

On the other hand, Xue Tong was not so lucky. At this moment, most of the bones in her body were broken, and excruciating pain was constantly emanating from her body.

Fang Jun has escaped, and Yu Fei has been captured; now she is all alone.

Faced with dozens of Demigods controlled by the BOSS, she had no hope left.

She should have known better than to enter the Instance. She never expected that following a Divine System Ability User would not only prevent her from clearing the Instance, but also lead to her death inside Instance.

It took her nearly ten years to reach her current level. This time, dying and losing 90% of her experience points means all her efforts have been in vain.

This is truly unacceptable.

At this moment, Yu Fei, who was controlled by the BOSS, walked up to Xue Tong. Feeling the sinister and evil aura emanating from Yu Fei, Xue Tong couldn't help but feel fear.

She knew of the reputation of the Anomalous Instance boss; those who died at his hands were all horrified by the boss's cruelty.

But what if these things happened to her?

Her breathing became rapid, and fear had already spread throughout her body.

She wasn't particularly afraid of dying inside the Instance, but she couldn't possibly be unafraid of the pain.

No one is unafraid of enduring endless torment before death.

As Yu Fei was about to walk up to her, Xue Tong was on the verge of collapse.

No, she had to do something.

Suicide, yes, she could commit suicide.

Although this is a poor choice, there is no other option at this point.

Suicide can at least reduce suffering.

But will the boss really give her the chance to commit suicide?

According to those who survived the Anomalous Instance, the BOSS would never allow them to commit suicide.

In her current state, it's simply impossible for her to commit suicide in front of dozens of Demigods.

But she still wanted to give it a try.

If suicide were successful, it would be a small victory, at least I wouldn't have to endure that torment anymore.

Her spiritual power rapidly gathered, and during this process, there were obvious energy fluctuations. If those Demigods were to intervene, they could completely stop her.

But the Demigods simply watched her, making no attempt to stop her.

A flicker of joy rose within her; at this moment, her mental strength was sufficient to allow her to successfully commit suicide.

Now, no one can stop it.

A surge of mental power exploded within her mind.

The violent mental force rapidly destroyed her brain, and she died in that instant.

There was no pain.

The fact that the BOSS let her commit suicide so easily, without any hindrance, was an unexpected surprise to her.

Wasn't this boss supposed to be immune to suicide? It seems that's not the case.

When Xue Tong woke up, she found herself not in the real world, but in an unfamiliar space.

She looked around, a sense of panic creeping into her heart.

"What's going on? Wasn't it supposed to be that you could return to the real world after committing suicide?"

Why!"

Xue Tong felt like she was going crazy. Why couldn't she leave this Instance even after dying?

She couldn't understand it at all. Could it be that people who commit suicide can't be resurrected?

However, there is no such rule, and among those who are resurrected from Instance, there are a very few who have successfully committed suicide within the Instance.

Therefore, that shouldn't be the reason.

She quickly figured it out; it was probably because this Instance was rather special.

This is the Land of Reincarnation; all the souls of the dead enter here.

However, if they die outside this Instance, the game's creators can resurrect them.

But she died in this Instance, which is subject to the rules of the Lord of the Netherworld. It's likely that the game's creators couldn't directly bring her soul into the real world.

Xue Tong's despair was even stronger than before; now she finally understood why the BOSS hadn't stopped her from committing suicide.

Even if she successfully commits suicide, she cannot leave this Instance.

Soon, Xue Tong faced judgment from the Book of Life and Death.

If she is found not guilty, she can leave the Land of Reincarnation and experience it again.

If found guilty, one can only endure torment in hell until the time for atonement is over before being released.

Seeing the past events appear in the Book of Life and Death, she gradually felt relieved.

The Lord of the Netherworld is not very harsh; his judgment of sins is relatively lenient.

She didn't do too many bad things in her life; in fact, she did some good things.

Her merits and demerits cancel each other out; she doesn't have too many sins to warrant being sentenced to hell. She can leave the Land of Reincarnation directly.

In that case, she can still be brought back to life.

Although she would lose some experience points, at least she would still be alive.

But just as the verdict was about to be announced, she suddenly screamed, her pupils dilated sharply, and her eyes were filled with regret and fear.

Her hopes were completely dashed; she couldn't leave the Instance.

Because her sin was suicide.

In the rules set by the Lord of the Netherworld, suicide is a very serious sin.

She cannot leave the Land of Reincarnation; she must spend 300 years in the Avici Hell to atone for her sins.

300 years, and it's the most terrifying Avici Hell.

She completely broke down.

She thought suicide would free her from her pain, but instead she would suffer even greater torment.
