Ten passages, nine out of ten are fatal.
What are the odds of survival?
Moreover, there was nothing special about it; the structure and the aura emanating from each passage were exactly the same, without any difference.
However, when they saw Ye Qiubai and the others walking into the middle passage...
Ai Xue and the taciturn man were taken aback.
Did they discover some vulnerability, or are they just acting recklessly?
"Let's go in too," the taciturn man suddenly said. "There's no point in staying here; there's no need to go back if we don't complete the mission."
After saying that, the taciturn man also walked towards the middle passage.
They could only gamble, hoping that people like Ye Qiubai wouldn't just rush in and die on a whim.
Upon hearing this, Ai Xue bit her lip, nodded, and followed.
The passageway was brightly lit and not as gloomy and dark as I had imagined.
Ye Qiubai and his group gathered together and moved forward.
Everyone had unleashed their full spiritual senses, their expressions solemn, daring not to slacken in the slightest.
Although there was no unsettling atmosphere, a sense of oppression was still faintly present.
It was as if death was always by their side, silently following their every step, ready to reap their lives at any moment with its broad, sharp scythe.
"Did we really make the right choice?"
Seeing that nothing unexpected had happened around her, Jiang Qingluan couldn't help but feel a surge of joy.
Song Xiao, however, remained tense, shaking his head and saying, "Never let your guard down until the very last moment, especially..."
"I feel like something's not quite right," Ning Chenxin said earnestly, holding the book in her hand.
The passage was long, and I had no idea where it led.
Although nothing unexpected has happened yet, the silence is a bit too much.
Ai Xue followed at a distance from the taciturn man and asked, "If something really happens, do you have a plan?"
The taciturn man's eyes gleamed at that moment, and he said in a deep voice, "It won't kill you."
Hearing this, Ai Xue finally felt relieved.
Only when Ai Xue saw the taciturn man make a move did she realize that he had actually been hiding a great deal of strength.
Even now, we still don't know how powerful he really was.
The weak attach themselves to the strong.
In this situation, Ai Xue would subconsciously ask the taciturn man for his opinion.
Sudden!
On the steel walls surrounding the passage, wisps of indescribable energy emanated, unknowingly enveloping everyone present!
Ye Qiubai and the others' expressions changed drastically.
"What is this?" Jiang Qingluan was shocked. Although she did not feel any attack or pressure, this aura made her feel alarmed!
"Did you sense it?" Mu Ziqing asked Ye Qiubai.
Ye Qiubai shook his head solemnly.
Even Ning Chenxin and Mu Fusheng, who were most skilled at sensing auras, were completely baffled.
This aura had no intention of attacking; it simply coiled around them like thorny vines, encircling them completely!
However, a full cup of tea's time had passed.
Hong Ying's expression suddenly changed!
"This is bad! This aura is devouring our luck!"
The Imperial Intent embodies the destiny of a nation within the Hong Ying.
Hong Ying was only able to clearly perceive it when she was engulfed by this aura.
Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed.
Although luck is an ethereal thing, invisible and intangible, and its effects are not usually felt.
But this is the kind of thing you can do without, but you can't live without!
Once luck is gone.
I'm afraid that finding fortuitous opportunity and breaking through to a higher realm will be very difficult afterward.
Or perhaps, at a critical moment of life and death, they were just one opportunity away from escape. But their luck ran out, and the opportunity failed to materialize, leading to their death...
Fang Qiong roared, " Immortal Affinity Mark!"
As soon as he finished speaking, an ancient character appeared on Fang Qiong's forehead, radiating a holy light that completely enveloped his body.
Under the protection of this holy light, the speed at which the fortune was being devoured gradually slowed down!
Seeing this, everyone did the same.
Ye Qiubai then took Mu Ziqing's hand, and the holy light of the Immortal Affinity Mark enveloped her.
Hong Ying pulled Jiang Qingluan back, while Xiao Hei pulled Song Xiao back.
This is to prevent the fortune from being further devoured.
Song Xiao looked at this scene with a surprised expression. "What is this?"
Is there Secret Method in the world to prevent one's luck from being devoured?
"And this aura..." From Jiang Qingluan's stunned expression, it was clear that she had discovered the purpose of the Immortal Affinity Mark...
Behind them, Ai Xue watched as Ye Qiubai and the others actually resolved the issue of their luck being devoured by this aura, and her expression turned extremely grim.
But the taciturn man's expression remained unchanged upon seeing this scene.
He took out a compass and said in a deep voice, "Stand within three steps of me."
Ai Xue did as she was told and moved closer to the man.
Immediately afterwards, the taciturn man poured his energy into the compass, and the golden pointer inside the compass began to rotate, absorbing all the surrounding energy!
Upon seeing the compass and its function, Ai Xue's expression suddenly changed drastically, and she exclaimed, "This is... one of the two imperial artifacts of the Sacred Hall, the Star-Shifting Compass?!"
"Isn't this supposed to be personally protected by the Temple Master? Why is it in your hands?"
The Star-Shifting Compass, Law Treasure of the level of God Emperor.
Its function is to deflect all attacks that rely on the Power of Rules heaven and earth; of course, the extent to which it can be deflected still depends on the holder's ability.
Including this aura that devours fortune.
The taciturn man said calmly, "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask."
"Also, take a compass."
Ai Xue took the Star-Shifting Compass and asked, "What are you going to do with me?"
But the taciturn man stopped answering, continuing to stand beside Ai Xue without saying a word, reverting to his previous taciturn state.
Ai Xue gave the man a deep look, then continued forward with the compass in hand.
However, no other dangerous incidents occurred in the passage after that.
It took them half a day to finally get out of the passage.
This does not mean that this passage is a way out.
Half a day is enough to completely devour your luck.
When a person's luck is completely devoured, no one dares to imagine what the consequences will be.
The reason why Ye Qiubai and the others did not encounter any problems with Ai Xue was simply because they happened to have the means to deal with this situation.
For anyone else, there would be absolutely no solution.
They could only watch helplessly as their luck was completely devoured...
Then it fell in some way...
After exiting the passage...
The scene before me has changed.
Looking around, there were rows of steel walls, and on those walls hung a huge scroll painting.
The scroll painting encompasses all aspects of Fusheng.
A vast aura of Power of Space emanated from it.
