Gu Jianlin, this monster, was created by Him.
A Supre from ancient tis, perfectly adapted to the rules of the real world!
The only price is that the account's experience is wiped clean and leveling must start again.
But this corpse of the Ancient God is different—it might retain part of its power from when it was alive!
Boom—an earth-shattering roar.
Countless cracks suddenly split open across the rock wall.
A desolate, primordial aura surged forth like a sea tide, as if a raging tsunami!
Scarlet beams of light lit up the cavern!
From those eerie, horrifying cracks, countless pairs of strange, scarlet vertical pupils seed to awaken!
"Run!"
Gu Jianlin didn't hesitate, clutching the girl in his arms as he turned and fled!
"Holy shit! Holy shit! Holy shit!"
Butcher saw clearly what was buried in the rock wall and let out a terrified howl.
They weren't eyes at all—they were monsters!
Twisted creatures with no features, just a blood-red vertical pupil on their faces!
At this mont, Gu Jianlin's ears were filled with eerie Life Rhythms, as if the despair of a sick patient had been unleashed through instrunts—a lody of madness and resentnt, sinister and macabre.
Even though he hadn't personally heard it before, the legendary "Black Friday" that is said to kill, couldn't be much worse.
"If my guess is correct, this should be the stomach of the Ancient God. When He was alive, He devoured countless lives. Those lives weren't fully digested, trapped in His stomach, assimilated by His power—and they've now beco part of Him. The Alchemy Matrix here should be His domain."
Gu Jianlin's expression turned grave as he said in a low voice, "This kind of situation shouldn't normally be fatal to humans, but your circumstances are too unique. Youzhu, tell
the truth—will your main body be affected?"
Su Youzhu didn't respond, only reaching out to stroke his face gently.
Gu Jianlin's thoughts were in chaos. He felt that the connection between the main body and the avatar must exist.
The Yin Yang Twin Jade pendant Old Gu had given him—under normal circumstances, if the avatar were to die, it shouldn't be a big problem.
But the key issue was that this domain belonged to an Ancient God.
It was hard to be certain whether the main body might be indirectly affected through the avatar.
It was like a virus; once infected, leaving the source region wouldn't solve the problem.
"No, that's not right. Old Gu ca here before. Considering his abilities, it's impossible he would've missed sothing this sinister. If coming here with an avatar would definitely cause issues, he would've warned you."
Gu Jianlin said gravely, "We need to find the traces left by Old Gu—there must be a way."
Su Youzhu curled into his arms with a faint smile. It was indeed trust in her ntor that had brought her here.
In a sense, she'd been duped by her teacher.
Yet they both knew.
Old Gu, for all his ill-fortune, wouldn't intentionally harm soone.
There must be sothing they weren't aware of.
Boom!
Butcher unleashed a sea tide of Qi Force from behind.
The cavern walls collapsed inch by inch, and the monsters were blasted away, crashing into the rubble.
Even under such powerful impact, the monsters remained unscathed. They crawled out of the debris, their crimson vertical pupils brimming with greed, mouths splitting open to reveal rows of sharp teeth.
"Brother Gu! Boss!"
The brute roared angrily, "These things won't die!"
"Then stop fighting—follow !"
Gu Jianlin pointed casually, and a pitch-black beam of light streaked past, utterly burying the ruins.
Butcher imdiately pulled back and followed.
"The brain."
Su Youzhu, recalling her ntor's guide, said weakly, "This domain released by the Ancient God—its Authority derives from the mind. If we reach His brain, there might be a solution. If my avatar can't hold on, go kill Jing Shangxiu—ignore Master."
She paused. "That guy can resurrect."
As they sprinted wildly, Gu Jianlin looked down and asked, "Can you keep going?"
Su Youzhu murmured softly in agreent.
"Don't lie—just hold on a bit longer."
Gu Jianlin looked at her clear yet dim eyes and said softly, "Will the main body be okay?"
Su Youzhu closed her glimring eyes, nestling into his embrace, staying silent.
Gu Jianlin faintly understood sothing and said in a low voice, "I won't let you die."
Su Youzhu murmured softly, "Are you worried? Everyone dies eventually, you know."
Gu Jianlin, with a grim face, turned into the next cavern entrance, sprinting every step: "If you die, I won't feel nervous anymore."
He paused. "But I don't want you to die—so no one gets to kill you."
Su Youzhu, feeling his warmth, traced circles on his chest with her porcelain-white fingers and whispered, "I don't want to die either. I don't want to leave you alone—because that would be too lonely."
Lonely?
Gu Jianlin thought of his years alone.
And the monts spent with this girl.
"Being alone isn't lonely."
He said softly, "Missing soone—that's loneliness."

On the first layer of the Qilin Immortal Palace—in Dawn City.
Huai Yin sat in her wheelchair, gazing at the ancient city rising before her, chuckling softly: "Years ago, my junior brother and I looked forward to nothing more than the Ancient God Realm expeditions. Each ti felt so fresh, as if traveling through ti—back thousands of years, marveling at the relics left by the ancients, full of sentint."
Jing Ci, tasked with pushing her wheelchair, said indifferently, "What's the difference? In the end, they'll all be destroyed by you and the Red King anyway."
