The strangeness has come, I am a god with trillions of ghost money

Chapter 312 This is the real rule!

Xi Jinzhi stretched out his hand, pointed upwards, and said, "She should be inside the Blood Moon, but I don't know how to get into the Blood Moon yet."

The castle and the area above it are both located in a separate, self-contained space. The Blood Moon is a prop created by the statue in this space.

This item is part of the ancient castle's magical artifacts, but I don't yet know its specific function.

Why was she inside the blood moon?

Song Mang asked with a worried expression, "Was it the statue that put her up there? Is she safe now?"

Xi Jinzhi explained, "He knows the relationship between you and your mother, and naturally knows that this is your weakness. Perhaps this instance has undergone too many changes, which is why He put your mother on the Blood Moon."

However, I just checked the Book of Life and Death, and your mother is not in immediate danger. This instance is also different from the ones you encountered before; it wasn't designed by those two statues in Jiang City.”

The Qingyu Fairy and Li Huoshen who appeared in Jiang City had both had their instances destroyed by Song Mang, and she even used the statues to refine pills. It can be said that she had a deep-seated hatred for her.

If Song Wenqi had encountered those two statues, his fate would likely have been uncertain.

"But He is not friendly."

Song Mang said, "If he didn't want to target me, why did he take my mother hostage? What exactly does he want?"

"do not know."

Xi Jinzhi sighed and said, "Actually, after being here for so long, we still haven't figured out the main function of this ancient castle's magical artifact, nor do we know the specific purpose of the statue."

But He hasn't harmed your mother yet, so we still have time to rescue her and negotiate with Him.

Song Mang pondered for a moment, "If we want to negotiate with Him, we need to make contact with Him. I don't even know where the statue is hiding, how can we negotiate?"

"Find a safe house."

Xi Jinzhi said, "Statues are usually in safe houses. If you find a safe house, you can find Him. Although this castle is very large and has many rooms, you can definitely find Him if you look carefully."

"Ok!"

Song Mang turned to look around and saw that Xuan Yuansheng had broken through the trapping formation left by Yin Qi and released all the human players inside.

"Thank you, Patriarch Xuanyuan, thank you, Miss Song!"

How do I get out of here?

"Waaaaah, this dungeon is just too hard! The monsters eat people, and the evil cultivators even use us to practice our skills! How are we supposed to clear this dungeon?!"

"Those damned righteous sects! They said they'd help me clear the level, so I came along! But I never expected they wanted to send us to evil cultivators for training!"

Everyone expressed their gratitude to Song Mang and Xuan Yuansheng, but some people couldn't help but sob.

They all thought they could finally leave this godforsaken place, but they never expected to be tricked by those highly respected Golden Core elders of the Xuanmen sect.

Hearing everyone's cries, Xuanyuan Sheng looked at Song Mang with a sigh and said, "Song Mang, do you know how to clear this eight-star dungeon?"

I explored many parts of the castle, but found it impossible to break through the castle's barrier to leave. There was no explanation of how to complete the instance when I entered.

Speaking of this, Xuanyuan Sheng also took out a piece of paper money with rules for the dead and said, "Oh right, I also found that there are problems with the rules I received here. If you follow them, something bad will happen."

But the intruder in this instance is my ancestor, Wentian! He claims he didn't change the rules.

Xuanyuan Sheng had already asked the Sword Saint about this matter.

“We’ve also found a problem with the rules!” other human players chimed in.

"Most of those who followed the rules died! I followed the rules at first too, and almost lost my life!"

"The idol deliberately gave us false rules. Could it be that it's trying to kill us all? From the very beginning, the idol never intended for the players to leave alive!"

"Very likely! I'm a local from Haicheng, and I've heard that over 100,000 people have died in this instance!"

"Damn it, we're doomed..."

Anxiety and despair permeated the scene.

Song Mang said, "When the idols created the instance, they had to leave a way out for human players. It's not that there's no way out here, it's just that you've all been misled."

The scene suddenly fell silent, and everyone looked at Song Mang with some confusion.

Xuanyuan Sheng then asked, "Miss Song, the escape route given in the dungeon is usually the correct rules and a safe house, but none of us have obtained the correct rules, and we haven't found a safe house yet, so where is the escape route?"

"Yeah, yeah, we used to avoid danger and find safe houses by following the rules. Now the rules are all fake, how are we supposed to find them?"

"These rules aren't fake; they're just made up. Even if I follow the rules in reverse, I'll still encounter danger!"

Song Mang took the rules from Xuan Yuansheng and then asked Xuan Yuanxi for the rules he had obtained to take a look.

After a while, she said, "Because the rules you received are not the real rules at all! The most misleading point about this instance is that the real rules don't necessarily appear in the instance!"

"what?!"

Xuanyuan Sheng was stunned for a moment. "If the rules of this instance don't appear in the instance, where else could they appear? You mean, the rules of this instance aren't written on the joss paper?"
But the rules aren't written on the joss paper, so where would they be written? If they're written in a separate book, how are we supposed to find them since we're all trapped here?

The others were also puzzled.

"I remember now! When I first entered the instance, I heard a voice reminding me to follow the real rules!"
It seems there's a problem with the rules; finding the real rules is a crucial part of clearing this dungeon! But how could the real rules not be within the dungeon itself?

"Is this instance treating us like monkeys?"

Song Mang spoke up, "Didn't you receive joss paper before entering the instance? If the rules have to be written on joss paper, then the contents of the first joss paper you receive can also be the rules."

Everyone's eyes widened in surprise.

"That invitation!"

Xuanyuan Sheng immediately realized what was happening.

The others quickly took out their invitations as well.

The night is so beautiful tonight; the blood-stained moon is so dazzling.

I wonder if you, so far away, can see the longing of your loved ones?

Come on, come here! Red is a color for celebrations and for family reunions.

You may not be in the mood to enjoy the food I've carefully prepared.
You don't have to admire the beautiful moon with me.

You can even ignore everyone's reply.
But you must come to this silent castle to attend my solitary dinner.
This is the content of the invitation letter. It doesn't explicitly state the rules, but you can glean some clues from it!
There were plenty of smart people at the scene, and soon someone noticed that three sentences in the invitation sounded like some kind of reminder.

This is the real rule!
