"An Ancient Divine Ruins within the ?" looked at Watercolor Rose in surprise. "How is that possible?"

He was very familiar with Ancient Divine Ruins.

Ancient Divine Ruins were different from ordinary ruins and team dungeons—they tested a player's survival ability far more. They were like area dungeons, but with a danger level that far surpassed them.

Yet danger and opportunity coexisted. The treasures inside the Ancient Divine Ruins far outnumbered those found outside—even super-large dungeons couldn't compare. This was especially true for combat techniques, practical fighting skills that would absolutely never drop in even the most massive team dungeons.

In his previous life, countless players in the Divine Realm had mastered various combat techniques, and more than half of them came from the Ancient Divine Ruins. As for higher-tier combat techniques, that went without saying—eighty percent of them originated from the Ancient Divine Ruins.

Whenever an Ancient Divine Ruins appeared in the Divine Realm, it always triggered a bloodbath.

That was because Ancient Divine Ruins were somewhat like team dungeons—there was a limit to how many players could enter. It wasn't open to unlimited entry; the number of players allowed in was entirely determined by the scale of the ruins, ranging from several thousand to tens of thousands of people, with only one opening per day.

In order to get as many of their members inside as possible, the major guilds would naturally try every means to keep others out.

The simplest method was to clear out all players within the designated area. As long as players were outside the zone, they couldn't enter the Ancient Divine Ruins. And of course, if the number of players inside the designated area exceeded the entry limit, nobody could get in—not until the count dropped to or below the allowed number.

The rewards from the Ancient Divine Ruins were extraordinary.

In his previous life, the major guilds would go all-out to monopolize the ruins, and this had even sparked massive guild wars among numerous organizations in the Divine Realm. The most intense battles involved several super-guilds fighting with everything they had.

But in his previous life, the earliest Ancient Divine Ruins only appeared some time after the guilds cleared their first level-50 super-large team dungeon. He never expected them to surface this early in this life.

"Guild Leader, from what I've gathered, Heavenly Burial is taking this Ancient Divine Ruins extremely seriously. Yi Xiao Du Zang personally led the guild's main raid force and a large number of experts to the site. It looks like they're determined to claim it. If they get the chance to learn combat techniques, that would be terrible," Watercolor Rose said worriedly.

Now that had gained a considerable advantage in open-field battles thanks to the Conqueror's Armor, they were suffering significant daily losses—but so was Heavenly Burial.

If Heavenly Burial obtained a large number of combat techniques and cultivated a batch of Perfection-stage experts, the balance of power between the two guilds could very well reverse.

Moreover, the Ancient Divine Ruins were filled with high-quality equipment at level 50 and above, including plenty of Gold-grade items—the kind of gear that only dropped in Hell Difficulty hundred-man team dungeons. Yet in the Ancient Divine Ruins, they were commonplace. There were even Dark Gold items at level 50.

It was worth noting that while many members of the super-powers had already reached level 50, their equipment was still stuck at level 45. Zero Wing was no different. If the guild could outfit its level-50 members with a full set of top-quality level-50 gear, the resulting boost in strength would be enormous.

"No. Forget about the Ancient Divine Ruins for now. We'll use this time to prioritize clearing the level-50 hundred-man team dungeons and upgrade the team's equipment. Have all guild members who've completed their second-tier Class advancement give it a try," Shi Feng shook his head, flatly rejecting Watercolor Rose's suggestion.

"We're not going to participate?" Watercolor Rose furrowed her delicate brows, confused.

The Ancient Divine Ruins was a shortcut to obtaining top-quality level-50 equipment. Passing up something so close to chase after hundred-man team dungeons seemed counterintuitive—by the time they finished, Heavenly Burial's members would already be better geared.

"Mm, don't worry about it. Those are Ancient Divine Ruins—they're not so easy to clear. And even if we got inside, there'd be no shortage of fighting over the loot. We're better off steadily farming gear in the team dungeons. Right now, we need to get our hands on a large batch of level-50 equipment first. Otherwise, even if our level-50 members like You Ziping reach that level, they won't have the corresponding weapons and gear to match. What's the point of leveling up if that's the case?" Shi Feng smiled and explained.

The difficulty of clearing an Ancient Divine Ruins was at least on par with a same-tier super-large team dungeon—it was an adventure zone designed specifically for second-tier . The major guilds currently didn't even have that many level-50 players, and they were already thinking about tackling the Ancient Divine Ruins? That was nothing short of a joke.
