In just over ten minutes, Chen Ming traversed the entire lowest level area.

It wasn't that the Bronze City was particularly small, but rather that Chen Ming's high agility boost allowed him to move incredibly fast. And most importantly, he encountered absolutely no obstacles along the way.

When he first entered the dungeon, he could see small monsters such as Drowned Armor Guards, and they seemed to be quite densely distributed. However, as Chen Ming traversed the dungeon, he did not see a single one.

"Perhaps this is also a byproduct of the privileges granted to the strong."

When he reached the finish line, he was met with a towering, pitch-black bronze wall. As the light within him flickered and his powerful authority took effect, the bronze wall in front of him suddenly became translucent.

"Without the authority of a powerful individual, who would know that behind this seemingly ordinary bronze city wall lies a hidden world..."

Chen Ming sighed and stepped inside.

The moment he passed through the bronze wall, Chen Ming felt a blur before his eyes. When his vision refocused, he could see everything clearly.

This is a perfectly square room.

Just like the somber bronze atmosphere outside, this place is also entirely cast in bronze.

There was no furniture; the only thing in the huge space was a jar as tall as a person placed in the center.

The can is transparent, and you can see that it is filled with a viscous liquid that has a slight blue glow. The liquid is gently churning, and bubbles occasionally rise to the surface.

"Please enter the tank."

"You will receive divine power prepared for you by the Great Western Ruins as start-up capital."

"At the same time, you will also gain general information about this world, helping you to quickly familiarize yourself with your body and integrate into this world."

Chen Ming had already sensed that the liquid surging inside the jar was very similar to divine power, and as it turned out, his judgment was correct.

This is divine power.

It's just unknown how it was made into a liquid state.

"This also yields a sum of divine power, not bad."

Chen Ming was overjoyed, as he had expended a great deal of energy fighting against the transparent barrier.

Although the whole process only lasted about ten seconds, because he was outputting divine power without regard to cost, he consumed more than 100,000 units of divine power in that short time.

Even with his substantial wealth, he still lost a tenth of his fortune.

It's certainly a good thing to have something to replenish right now.

He immediately placed the Queen in the corner of the room, letting her sit or lean against something, freeing her hands, and Chen Ming quickly walked towards the huge tank.

Just as they approached the tank, a warning sounded from the massive container.

"Please use the divine runes to unlock the jar."

Chen Ming stopped in his tracks.

"Oh no, how come there's this kind of step?" Chen Ming frowned.

Since each storage room here has its own number to deal with each different powerful individual, it means that the divine runes required to unlock them are their respective divine runes.

Chen Ming didn't even know who this powerful figure named Tian Kui was, let alone divine runes.

"Are we just going to give up like this...?"

Chen Ming's eyebrows were already furrowed into a deep frown.

It wasn't that he coveted the divine power here.

After all, as long as he doesn't experience that dangerous situation again, his divine power reserves are more than enough.

His concern was that if he didn't reclaim the divine power here, the Great Western Ruins might become suspicious of him...

After all, the Great Western Ruins have been guiding me all this way.

Just like a new player entering a game and having to follow the game's settings to complete one tutorial task after another.

The more Chen Ming looked at the lines of text on the right side of the map, the more he felt that it resembled a beginner's guide quest.

As anyone who has played games knows, many beginner quests are mandatory.

Chen Ming turned around and looked at the bronze wall that had been completely closed and returned to its original state, his expression somewhat uncertain.

"Maybe we can't go back..."

"No, it's not just that we can't go back."

"If the verification fails here, it could very likely lead to some more serious consequences."

Thinking of this, Chen Ming couldn't help but take a deep breath.

perhaps……

This is not a simple beginner tutorial task.

Just like the Great Western Ruins, which claims to be a beginner's guide, but secretly it misleads people and provides blood packs to these powerful figures from past generations.

same.

This seemingly simple tutorial task may actually contain hidden secrets.

"That's true. If a reincarnated person can mobilize the ancient powerhouses sleeping here, then it's conceivable that more unexpected situations will occur in the endless cycle of reincarnation."

"And beginner tutorial areas like the Great Western Ruins will constantly encounter these kinds of unexpected events."

"Given the level of intelligence possessed by the civilization that created this cycle, the novice training grounds are absolutely capable of iterating and updating themselves."

"This should be a soft test..."

"I have to pass!"

Chen Ming took a deep breath.

It's truly a place fraught with danger at every turn!

Even though he avoided many powerful individuals' traps by relying on his rich experience, an unexpected accident dragged him into another layer of the scheme.

Obtaining the privileges of a powerful individual who can move freely within the Great Western Ruins is not so simple.

"Perhaps we can try using the properties of the Immaculate Divine Rune..."

Thinking of this, Chen Ming raised his right hand high, and the Immaculate Divine Runes condensed.

A familiar halo coalesced in Chen Ming's hand, but this time, Chen Ming instantly sensed something was wrong...

"Ok?"

"Why are the Immaculate Divine Marks different from before?!"

Chen Ming began to observe carefully.

The halo is still the same halo, but the halo formed by the Immaculate Divine Pattern was about the size of a basketball before, but now it has shrunk a bit, becoming only the size of an open palm.

Not only has the size changed.

Its texture is also different.

As its volume shrinks, the gas inside also seems to be compressed, becoming more condensed.

Originally, the Immaculate Divine Rune was a fluffy mass of gas, but now the center of it is showing signs of solidification.

"What's going on...?" Chen Ming was caught off guard by the changes in the Immaculate Divine Runes. He had been studying this thing for almost a year and had never seen it change in the slightest.

"Huh?! Where is my divine power?!"

Suddenly, Chen Ming was taken aback.

He suddenly realized that he only had 560,000 units of divine power left!

The amount that was less than his estimate of a little over 1.1 million was almost half of what he had come in!

"Not a buddy..."

"Where is my divine power?!"

Chen Ming was certain that his estimation was absolutely correct. The divine power that his nascent divine runes could output per second was only ten thousand at most, and the time he was entangled with that transparent barrier was only a little over ten seconds.

Even two hundred thousand units of divine power couldn't possibly be consumed!

"There's something wrong, there's definitely something wrong!"

Chen Ming directly accessed the system records, where every expenditure of his divine power would be recorded truthfully.

He wanted to see where his divine power had gone!
