Ember was probably not visiting the Fallen Gods Ruins for the first time, because Ye Fan followed his guidance all the way to his destination without encountering any danger.

The journey here has been so smooth it almost seems unreal.

In short.

Two hours later, Ye Fan stood at the edge of a huge rift valley, looking ahead.

Irregular rift valleys meander across the land, like ugly scars stretching into the distance.

These are traces left after the battle between the four martial gods, and they can be seen everywhere in this ruin.

In the beginning, there may have been many flowers, plants and trees growing here. Especially after the death of the four martial gods, the dissipated life energy must have given birth to many rare and precious materials here.

Unfortunately, the continent, having lost the support of the human world, has gradually lost its vitality. Today, it is like an old man whose life is nearing its end.

On this continent, not a trace of green can be seen anymore. Perhaps next time, and the time after that, this continent will eventually collapse, turning into endless sand and disappearing into space.

"We've arrived. And then what?"

As soon as Ye Fan finished speaking, embers floated out from his body.

Yu Jin said nothing, looked around, then raised his hand and aimed it in a certain direction, slowly lifting it upwards.

As he moved, the entire ground began to tremble violently.

Before long, a rocky pillar suddenly pierced out, and at its top lay a broken bone.

Then, the embers transformed their palms into claws and pulled sharply.

Four drops of blood were forcibly drawn from the broken bone.

At that very moment, four equally powerful yet distinctly different terrifying pressures suddenly descended upon the world!

Ye Fan immediately let out a muffled groan and knelt down on the ground, a trickle of blood sliding down from the corner of his mouth.

"So this is the oppressive aura of a Martial God...?"

He was merely a peak seventh realm cultivator, yet he wasn't crushed to death on the spot by the pressure of a Martial God-level being. This was because the pressure had been weakened considerably over the long years.

He struggled to lift his head, his gaze burning as he looked at the four drops of blood flying toward the embers.

"Martial God's Blood!"

The God of War is a being who has reached the pinnacle of the Four Realms. A single drop of their essence blood is a treasure among the most precious!

Four drops of blood flew in and hovered in the palm of the embers.

He raised his hand and wiped, a chill emanating from it, quickly covering the four drops of blood and freezing them completely.

Then, the overwhelming pressure disappeared, and Ye Fan felt a sense of relief before standing up.

"As expected of someone from the divine realm, they can easily seal the blood of a martial god."

Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Ye Fan spoke, his tone ambiguous, whether in surprise or sarcasm.

Yu Jin didn't care and handed back one drop of blood.

Ye Fan suppressed his excitement, took the drop of blood, and then looked at the remaining three drops, asking, "Just one drop?"

Yu Jin said calmly, "That drop of blood I gave you, which you will slowly absorb later, will already benefit you immensely."

"These three drops are the blood of the Spirit Clan, the Demon Clan, and the Monster Clan's Martial Gods, respectively. For you, they are the most potent poison in the world."

"What, you want to try it?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Fan did not insist. He casually let his hand hang down, but in reality, he quietly formed a hidden hand seal.

"So, is our deal complete? You still owe me something."

Yu Jin flipped his hand to collect the three drops of blood, then turned around to look at Ye Fan.

He glanced at Ye Fan's lowered hand, seemingly casually, and then chuckled, "Not bad, I knew you had a backup plan."

"What, are you that afraid I'll possess you?"

Even after being directly exposed by Yu Jin, Ye Fan remained calm and said, "There's no other way; you always have to be prepared for things."

"Since I met you, you have given me martial arts techniques and guided my cultivation. All you asked for was for me to bring you here."

"The returns are completely disproportionate to the difficulty, making it hard for me to believe you don't have other plans."

"Think one step ahead and prepare for the worst, that's what you taught me."

Yu Jin wasn't angry; instead, he was greatly pleased: "Not bad! I knew I hadn't misjudged you!"

"With the strength of a mere seventh realm, how dare you scheme against people from the God Realm?"

Ye Fan immediately interrupted, "Let me correct you, I really don't have the guts to scheme against people from the God Realm."

"The difference in strength is too great; there's no chance whatsoever."

"But you are now just a remnant soul, not invincible. I have been preparing for this for a long time."

Yu Jin's gaze slowly swept over Ye Fan's entire body, his eyes sparkling as if he wanted to see through everything.

"The Mingxin Jade Pendant? Is this all you're confident about?"

Ye Fan sneered, "Not entirely. While this thing can prevent possession, with your knowledge and skills, breaking it should be easy for you."

"However, even in the worst-case scenario, it can at least stop you for a moment."

"A moment is enough for self-destruction; I wouldn't give you my body even if it exploded."

Upon hearing this, Yu Jin laughed heartily, his eyes full of approval, and clapped his hands.

"Wild! Ruthless!"

"I know that with your personality, you're absolutely capable of doing it."

"But..." Yu Jin's smile gradually became more meaningful, "...it's just that your vision is too narrow."

Before Ye Fan could ask, Yu Jin raised his hand again, and a ball of light gathered in his palm.

As the ball of light appeared, the embers' entire body rapidly became illusory, until it was almost transparent.

On the other hand, the ball of light grew brighter and brighter.

"Take it. Everything except the memories and the last bit of power that sustains you is yours."

Yu Jin's voice suddenly became extremely weak. With a gentle push, the ball of light in his hand floated towards Ye Fan.

Ye Fan quickly retreated several steps, and with a wave of his hand, a gentle force blocked the ball of light.

Seeing this, Yu Jin could only weakly smile and say, "See, even though I gave it to you, you didn't dare to take it."

As soon as he finished speaking, his smile vanished, and a black stone blade of unknown material material material materialized in his hand. He turned around and slashed it through the air.

The solid space was so easily torn apart, revealing the void behind it.

He then threw the three drops of blood into the void, and soon after, an unsettling and restless aura emanated from the breach.

Through this small window, one can vaguely see something wriggling in the absolute darkness of the void...

Ye Fan's hair stood on end. That faint aura instantly evoked an instinctive fear in him! It was as if he were facing a natural enemy that he could never defeat!

Ye Fan glanced at the ball of light in front of him, and in an instant, he decisively gave up and ran away without looking back!

Perhaps what Yu Jin said was true; he didn't do anything to the ball of light.

But at this point, there's no time to worry about anything else!

Watching Ye Fan walk away, Yu Jin chuckled softly.

"It's okay, it's all the same."

"No one can escape it."

As soon as he finished speaking, a tentacle suddenly emerged from the void window, enveloping the embers and the ball of light.

Even though the embers were in an illusory state at this moment, they were still suddenly pulled into the void by the tentacles!

In the blink of an eye, even more tentacles stretched out, engulfing everything around them.

Large swaths of sand were dragged in, and the faint aura gradually became more pronounced and stronger!
