An Yue and Lu Tingchen also decided that no matter what difficulties they would encounter in the future, they would work together to embrace a new life.

The space materials they carry will continue to play an important role in the future, helping them create a better life in this ancient world. Since they set foot on this ancient land, they have experienced countless ups and downs. The hardships on the road to escape famine, the battle of wits and courage with evil forces, and the days of searching for life in the wilderness have deepened their feelings and made them more determined to survive in this world.

At this moment, they were on a small boat, drifting on the vast ocean. The salty and humid sea breeze gently brushed their faces, bringing a hint of coolness. The purpose of their trip was to find a legendary paradise, a place where they could live in peace and away from disputes.

After several days of sailing, they arrived at an isolated island. From a distance, the island looked lush and full of life. When their boat approached the shore, An Yue and Lu Tingchen couldn't wait to jump ashore. The soft sand under their feet and the warm sunshine on their bodies made them feel extremely comfortable.

"Tingchen, look, this island is so beautiful." An Yue said excitedly, with a gleam in her eyes.

Lu Tingchen nodded and reached out to hold An Yue's hand, "Yes, maybe this is the place we have been looking for."

The two walked along the beach towards the island. The trees on the island were tall and dense, with branches and leaves intertwined to form a green sky. Birds sang happily on the branches, as if welcoming their arrival. As they walked, they suddenly discovered a mysterious ruin.

The ruins were covered by dense vegetation. If they hadn't walked here accidentally, they wouldn't have found it. The gate of the ruins was made up of two huge stones, which were engraved with strange symbols and patterns. An Yue and Lu Tingchen looked at each other, their hearts full of curiosity and confusion.

"Tingchen, what place do you say this is?" An Yue asked softly.

Lu Tingchen shook his head. "I don't know either, but it seems like there are many secrets hidden here."

They walked into the ruins carefully, which was filled with an old smell. The torches on the walls had long been extinguished, and only the sunlight shining through the cracks above their heads illuminated the road ahead for them. The passages in the ruins were intricate and complex, like a huge maze.

They walked slowly along the passage, and the patterns and symbols on the wall became clearer and clearer. An Yue observed these patterns carefully and found that they seemed to be telling an ancient story.

"Tingchen, look at these patterns, they seem to be recording a war." An Yue said, pointing at the wall.

Lu Tingchen leaned over to take a look. "Well, it looks like this war is very large, but I don't know when it happened or why."

Continuing forward, they came to a spacious hall. In the center of the hall stood a huge stone statue. The face of the statue was blurred, but from its posture, it could be seen that it was a majestic figure. Around the statue were some stone tables and chairs, which were covered with dust.

An Yue walked to a stone table and found a yellowed book on it. She gently picked up the book and opened the first page. She didn't recognize any of the words on it.

"Tingchen, what's written here?" An Yue handed the book to Lu Tingchen.

Lu Tingchen took the book and studied it carefully. "I don't recognize these characters either, but they feel like an ancient language."

At this moment, a low roar suddenly came from the hall. An Yue and Lu Tingchen looked around vigilantly, and saw that the eyes of the stone statue suddenly flashed red. Then, the ground began to shake violently, and stones on the wall fell one after another.

"Oh no, this place is going to collapse!" Lu Tingchen pulled An Yue's hand and ran towards the exit.

However, the passage was blocked by fallen rocks, and they were in trouble. An Yue was anxious, "Tingchen, what should we do?"

Lu Tingchen thought calmly for a moment, "Don't worry, we will definitely find another way out."

They began to look for other exits in the hall, and finally, behind the stone statue, they found a hidden passage. There was a pungent smell in the passage, and strange lights flickered on the walls.

An Yue followed Lu Tingchen closely, her heart filled with fear. "Tingchen, I'm a little scared."

Lu Tingchen comforted her: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

They walked along the passage for an unknown amount of time before finally arriving at a huge basement. The basement was surrounded by many huge sarcophagi, which were covered with runes.

An Yue couldn't help but shudder, "Tingchen, there won't be anything in these sarcophagi, right?"

Lu Tingchen approached one of the sarcophagi carefully and gently pushed the lid. The lid did not move at all, as if it was sealed by a mysterious force.

Just when they were about to give up, suddenly, the lid of a sarcophagus slowly opened, and a black smoke came out from it. A figure gradually emerged in the smoke.

An Yue screamed in fear, and Lu Tingchen protected her behind him, watching the figure warily. When the smoke cleared, they could see clearly that it was an old man in a black robe.

The old man's face was dry, and his eyes revealed a mysterious aura. He looked at An Yue and Lu Tingchen, and slowly said: "You are finally here."

An Yue and Lu Tingchen looked at each other, their hearts full of doubts. "Who are you? Why are you here?" Lu Tingchen asked.

The old man smiled and said, "I am the guardian of this relic. I have been waiting here for a thousand years."

"Wait for us? Why?" An Yue asked puzzledly.

The old man sighed, "There is a powerful force hidden in this relic. Once this power falls into the hands of bad people, it will bring disaster to the world. I have been waiting for the right person to inherit this power and protect world peace."

An Yue and Lu Tingchen felt a sense of responsibility after hearing this. "Then what should we do?" Lu Tingchen asked.

The old man pointed to the center of the basement and said, "There is an altar there. As long as you put your hands on it, you can gain this power. However, this power also comes with great responsibility. You must consider it carefully."

An Yue and Lu Tingchen did not hesitate at all. They walked to the altar and placed their hands on it. Instantly, a powerful force surged into their bodies, and their bodies emitted a dazzling light.

After the light disappeared, An Yue and Lu Tingchen felt full of strength. The old man looked at them and nodded with satisfaction, "From now on, you are the masters of this power. I hope you can use it to protect world peace." After that, the old man's body gradually disappeared.
