Ancestral Wealth Inheritance System

"Host, I detected intense spatial fluctuations. The space where Wanshen Manor is located is collapsing!"

"Collapsing? What do you mean?"

"It means this space will soon be annihilated. Not only all the buildings here, but all life will vanish with the collapse of space!"

"What?" Fang Jueyu's hand trembled. He had just obtained this treasure and hadn't even figured out its purpose, and now this was happening?

"Host, it seems the manor's previous owner didn't want this treasure to disperse, sealing the manor. But you forcibly broke the seal and took the treasure. This likely activated the owner's final safeguards, ensuring that those who took it can't leave alive."

"Who touched the master's items!" An ancient voice, devoid of any vitality, echoed from the purple crystal skeleton.

Moments later, the hollow skeleton suddenly pointed at Fang Jueyu, "Leave the master's belongings!"

"Boom!" A red Cosmic Source Power lashed out at Fang Jueyu like a whip.

A clone immediately shielded Fang Jueyu, yet the clone, which had almost 90% of Fang Jueyu's power, was directly obliterated by that Source Power!

Fang Jueyu shuddered. These clones were extensions of his power, and their destruction caused some backlash. At this moment, his chest felt as if it had been struck hard.

"Damn, this isn't scientific!" Fang Jueyu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, thinking about how absurd it was that a skeleton without muscles or vocal cords could speak, and it could even wield Cosmic Source Power for attacks. What on earth was this?

"Host, even if a Martial Artist above the Demigod level dies, their body decays, but some of their obsessions remain," Xiao Yi explained. "These warriors must have been Guardians of this manor in life. Even after death, their obsessions haven't dissipated!"

"I'm an honorable member of the party, a materialist, and you're telling me this?" Fang Jueyu complained as he ran.

The pressure of space grew, preventing him from flying. He could only run on foot.

That skeleton seemed to have identified Fang Jueyu, relentlessly chasing him. Although slow and clumsy, each attack could instantly kill a Controller!

"Ah! Damn! Stay alive!"

"I, Lu Benwei, will definitely come back!"

"Long live Demacia!"

"All men must die eventually, but they can leave their mark!"

"Ah! This monk is doomed!"

To help Fang Jueyu fend off the attacks, each clone rushed toward them, turning into light fragments and disappearing.

"Pfft!" Fang Jueyu spat out a mouthful of blood. The continuous destruction of several clones inflicted significant damage on him, not just physically but also to his spiritual power and soul. Even with those elixirs, recovery would take a long time.

"Damn it, is my life as Fang Jueyu destined to end here?"

"Host, if you throw away that model, maybe the chase will stop!"

"Once something's in Fang Jueyu's pocket, it never leaves!" Fang Jueyu spent so much energy and time for this object, and he wasn't about to give it up.

Xiao Yi understood Fang Jueyu's nature and knew he would never throw away the treasure. Moreover, it was curious about a relic requiring thousands of half-Guardians; it couldn't be ordinary!

"Host, the ruins are collapsing rapidly. We have to leave in two minutes!" Xiao Yi warned.

In the manor's depths, a black void emerged, turning everything into dust. Once space completely collapsed, Wanshen Manor would be erased, killing everyone inside!

At this moment, a golden Prohibition almost entirely enveloped the manor, leaving a few passages at the exit. This was the only way to leave Wanshen Manor!

"What's happening? What is that sound?" Other Martial Artists noticed the anomaly.

"It's... it's the skeleton! The altar's skeleton has come to life!"

"This is collapsing, everyone out now!"

"Ah!" Two passing Martial Artists were struck by the skeletal power, their bodies shattered by Cosmic Source Power in an instant.

"Run! Run quickly!"

"Damn, it must be those from Shenhao Civilization who took the treasure, causing this!"

The relic's outer regions felt less pressure, allowing Martial Artists to quickly use Cosmic Source Power to leave the Secret Realm, scrambling out.

"Where's the Shenhao Civilization?"

"They should still be inside!"

"I saw that purple crystal skeleton chasing them, Lu Benwei, Liu Mou, Galen, and several Shenhao Civilization Martial Artists have died!"

"Dead?" Cheers arose upon hearing this, as it was great news for many. They wished the Shenhao Civilization dead!

"It's Fang Jueyu! He's not dead yet!"

Fighting his way out, all twenty-three of Fang Jueyu's clones were destroyed, yet the skeleton continued its pursuit. But the exit was in sight!

"Don't let him escape!"

"Agreed! Everyone, stop him and push him back!"

"Hmph! Such a shame about that treasure!"

They couldn't miss this chance to hit someone when they're down.

In normal circumstances, they might not stop Fang Jueyu, but he was weakened and evidently injured. The strongest among them could attack together; even if they couldn't kill him, they could trap him in the Secret Realm, sealing his fate!

"I, Liu Qi, have never been this disregarded, and if the Shenhao Civilization lives, I'll harbor a demon, which will hinder my cultivation!"

"From now on, there will be no more 'Shenhao Civilization Twenty-Four Heroes'!"

"Hahaha! Your legend ends here!"

...

"Host, we're almost out. Hang in there!"

"I'm still holding on!" Fang Jueyu felt hazy, on the brink of unconsciousness. He bit his tongue to stay awake. Ever since acquiring Xiao Yi, this was the worst situation he'd faced!

"We're there!" Fang Jueyu couldn't savor survival's relief, as a Cosmic Source Power fist flew toward him from the entrance!

"What?" Fang Jueyu crossed his arms over his chest, but his condition was dire, the Cosmic Source Power in him exhausted. Despite his resilient body, taking this hit unharmed was impossible.

"Boom!" The punch smashed into Fang Jueyu's chest, sending him flying and crashing heavily. At that moment, the skeleton's attack wave hit him, its force capable of easily killing a Divine Ability User!

"I can't dodge!" Fang Jueyu spat more blood, his body flung by the force again.

"Huh? I'm okay?" Besides his battered body, Fang Jueyu delightfully realized he hadn't been harmed by the Cosmic Source Power.

"Host, Mohe blocked that hit for you," Xiao Yi stated.

"Mohe..." Fang Jueyu felt his connection with Mohe severed, as it seemed heavily injured and unconscious.

"It's over!" At this point, Wanshen Manor's exit completely closed, and the last area would soon collapse!

"Damn it!" Through the transparent Prohibition, Fang Jueyu saw gloating faces: Liu Qi, Stella, and others...

"If I survive, I'll kill you all!"
