In the hidden bamboo grove on the back mountain of the Pure Mystic Temple, Ao Tian struggled to rise, coughing slightly. "Brother Qing, your spatial jump... was too intense." 0
 
Su Wenxin was checking her equipment. "The energy consumption was excessive; my system is nearly fried." 0
 
"Sorry." Qing Chen leaned against a bamboo stalk, his face pale. "It was a spur-of-the-moment decision; I didn't have time to adjust." 0
 
The three of them were in a sorry state, but at least they had survived. 0
 
"Seriously," Ao Tian said, brushing off the dust from his clothes, "that earlier encounter was no joke." 0
 
Su Wenxin activated her energy detector. "It's significantly stronger than before, at least at the True God level." 0
 
"No." Qing Chen shook his head. "That was just a clone." 0
 
"A clone can be that powerful?" Ao Tian gasped. "I don't understand the world of the big shots." 0
 
Su Wenxin turned to Qing Chen. "You knew something all along, didn't you?" 0
 
"Yes." Qing Chen did not deny it. "The Pure Mystic Temple knows a bit about the Three Divine Artifacts." 0
 
"So?" Ao Tian leaned in closer. "Spill it!" 0
 
Qing Chen glanced around and suddenly made a hand gesture. A flash of white light enveloped the bamboo grove in a thin mist. 0
 
"A protective barrier?" Su Wenxin raised an eyebrow. "Looks like there's indeed something big going on." 0
 
"It's not really a secret," Qing Chen said. "In ancient times, to seal away certain things that shouldn't exist, our ancestors created the Three Divine Artifacts." 0
 
"The Key, the Mirror, and the Formation Disk?" 0
 
"Exactly. The Key opens spatial passages, the Mirror reflects reality, and the Formation Disk is used to set up great formations." 0
 
Ao Tian raised his hand. "Wait a minute, aren't those just ordinary magical tools?" 0
 
"The difference is," Qing Chen continued, "the Three Divine Artifacts must be used simultaneously to unleash their true power." 0
 
Su Wenxin pondered for a moment. "So that's why there’s the prophecy of 'Three Fates on the Same Path'?" 0
 
 
"That's right. The prophecy says that in the future, three individuals will resonate with the Three Divine Artifacts. Only by working together can they face the impending crisis." 0
 
"Wait!" Ao Tian suddenly jumped up, "Are you saying..." 0
 
Su Wenxin also reacted, "Us three?" 0
 
Qing Chen nodded, "Given the current situation, it's very likely." 0
 
"No way!" Ao Tian exclaimed in frustration, "I'm just a Game Player!" 0
 
Su Wenxin scoffed, "Then explain that 'archaeology-specific' Game Controller of yours!" 0
 
"Well..." Ao Tian chuckled awkwardly, "It's actually an artifact I stumbled upon; it's said to be a replica of the Ancient Key." 0
 
"A replica?" Qing Chen looked at him, "Are you sure?" 0
 
Ao Tian was at a loss for words, "Uh..." 0
 
Su Wenxin suddenly said, "Actually, I have something too." 0
 
She took out an ancient copper mirror from her spatial pocket. 0
 
"This is..." Qing Chen's eyes narrowed. 0
 
"It's been passed down in my family," Su Wenxin explained. "I always thought it was just an ordinary artifact until just now in the secret chamber..." 0
 
"It reacted?" 0
 
"Yes, when I saw the mural, it seemed like it wanted to jump out on its own." 0
 
The three exchanged glances. 0
 
"Then," Ao Tian turned to Qing Chen, "you must have the Formation Disk with you, right?" 0
 
Qing Chen didn't speak; he simply extended his hand. A flash of white light appeared as an ancient circular disk materialized in his palm. 0
 
"I knew it!" Ao Tian said excitedly. "No wonder you can research so many formations!" 0
 
 
"None of this matters." Qing Chen put away the Formation Disk. "The key is, what do we do now?" 0
 
Su Wenxin was about to speak when her expression suddenly changed. "Someone's coming." 0
 
Footsteps could be heard outside the bamboo forest. 0
 
"It's my disciple," Qing Chen said. "They must have discovered that the secret chamber has collapsed." 0
 
"Then we..." 0
 
"Let's disperse." Qing Chen released the protective barrier. "Be careful, and contact each other if anything happens." 0
 
Ao Tian raised his hand. "Should we create a group chat?" 0
 
Su Wenxin replied, "......" 0
 
Qing Chen added, "......" 0
 
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Ao Tian said, feeling wronged. "It would be so convenient!" 0
 
In the end, after Ao Tian's insistence, the three of them created a group chat. 0
 
Ao Tian named it: 【Three Lives, One Path Anti-Fraud Group】. 0
 
Su Wenxin sighed, "......" 0
 
What even is this? 0
