The ancient altar looked like an ordinary altar, appearing no different from afar.

In this land of the Blood Pool, such an altar was not particularly eye-catching, everything seemed ordinary.

But when Zhou Yan crossed the blazing blood-red flames and passed through various blood pools, he realized that the altar was not as mundane as it appeared.

As Zhou Yan approached the altar, he immediately felt the profound and extensive power of space laws. The altar remained an altar, yet all around it were space fissures, resembling pieces of shattered space being pieced together.

Such a scenario was extremely rare, Zhou Yan had never encountered it before.

Space naturally exists, at least to a certain extent it should be intact, but around the altar, everything was broken. It was not a standalone space but rather traces of shattered spaces were mixed together and forcibly fused, forming a chaotic broken place.

A place like this should not exist.

Yet Zhou Yan saw its existence now.

Zhou Yan stepped onto the altar but did not advance.

He didn't turn around either, for he sensed that the City Lord of Netherworld Blood City, Ming Cheng, had already left with Ming Hao.

Zhou Yan stood on a relatively stable point within this void, contemplating as he looked at this ancient celestial altar.

The altar was shaped as Eight Diagrams, upon which were ancient tadpole runes. Surrounding the runes, unknown void fluctuations were manifesting.

Upon the altar, there was a massive blood-red ancient cauldron.

A giant and ancient three-legged round cauldron.

Inside the cauldron, there were three sticks of incense. These weren't incense but three sticks resembling Devil Suppressing Sticks.

Their size, length, and aura were identical to the Devil Suppressing Stick in the hand of Zhou Yan's Divine Monkey Sword Soul Combat Body.

If seen somewhere else, Zhou Yan would certainly think it was the Devil Suppressing Stick in his hand. But now, he merely took this scene in stride without much surprise.

In truth, there were hardly any things left that could surprise Zhou Yan nowadays.

And the ancient cauldron, within Earth's Ancestral Land, in the ancient China, symbolized the supreme artifact of Nine Provinces, the national artifact used to conquer Central Plains and flourished through Spring and Autumn as a mysterious artifact.

Using the cauldron as an altar, using the altar as a cauldron...

"Sacrificial Heaven, cauldron..."

Zhou Yan muttered to himself, gaining some enlightenment, seemingly understanding the meaning of Sacrificial Heaven.

Heaven nurtures all things for humans, humans have nothing to repay Heaven.

Thus, using cultivators as sacrificial lambs to worship Heaven and Earth, to reciprocate Heaven and Earth, might allow one to command Heavenly Intent, to align with Heavenly Heart.

This place, precisely because it is a Sacrificial Land, has numerous bloodline inheritances. And likewise, because it is a Sacrificial Land, there are plentiful space fragments here, yet each remains stable in its location, thereby allowing access from here to other ancient Ancestral Lands.

Because essentially, the Sacrificial Lands of various Ancient Demon Clans must be interconnected, since their essence is the same, the structure of Sacrificial Heaven is identical, like water of the Same Origin, wood from the same root.

With just a slight thought, Zhou Yan already comprehended a series of circumstances within.

Using the ability of the Void Sword Body, he discerned the space laws here, searching for the scent of the Jade Fox.

Indeed, this scent was present but very faint, almost imperceptible.

It took Zhou Yan nearly three days to sense a wisp of it, but just as he probed, the scent faded away.

Afterwards, Zhou Yan concentrated and held his breath, waiting in readiness, unlocking his capabilities to an extreme, finally, almost six days later, locking onto that wisp of scent again.

During this, the Sacrificial Blood Pool land was extraordinarily quiet, so quiet it was somewhat terrifying.

Yet the danger mentioned earlier by the Netherworld Blood City City Lord Ming Cheng did not occur, and Zhou Yan was not targeted as a blood sacrifice lamb, nor did he encounter fierce and terrible attacks; rather, this place was very peaceful, with no anomalies from start to finish.

Though Zhou Yan did not let his guard down, nor did he show any sign of relaxation, continuously concentrating and holding his breath, completely focused from beginning to end.

After a considerable amount of time, upon once again locking onto that wisp of Demon Fox scent, Zhou Yan finally flew with Space Power towards the location of that scent.

Right away, disturbances emerged in the process, an unknown chilling power permeated him, instantly making one feel cold all over.

Zhou Yan remained calm during the danger, using the strong capability of the Void Sword Body to traverse the void, avoiding these unknown dangers.

Thereafter, Zhou Yan experienced a unique sensation of a light circle twisting the void, this power constituted a very powerful teleportation force.

The void began to shake, and Zhou Yan's vision darkened slightly, instantly feeling as if stars shifted, Heaven and Earth underwent profound changes as if eons passed.

Amongst it, Zhou Yan even felt a peculiar sensation as though passing through the Great Domain barrier, through the door of Space-Time.

And as this feeling arose, the power between heaven and earth had already come to a halt. Zhou Yan felt a strong impact ripple through his heart, causing him to involuntarily shiver.

When Zhou Yan regained some clarity, he realized he had entered a vast Immortal Pool.

The air was filled with an ancient Immortal Aura, coupled with the unique charming aura of the Jade Fox Clan, yet this aura carried a chill of Cold Ice.

The chill cut to the bone, the cold wind like knives.

This world was not dark, but it was also not bright.

When Zhou Yan arrived here, he immediately sensed various auras, but amidst these, he looked around and found that this place was astonishingly similar to the Heavenly Pool Thunder Marsh.

Earth Ancestral Land, with Luo Book River Map, hidden in the Heavenly Pool Thunder Marsh.

Zhou Yan had once delved deep into that place and had a profound impression of it. Coming to the Ancestor Land of the Jade Fox Clan now, Zhou Yan was almost instantly eighty percent sure he had arrived at the same place.

But regardless of any changes in space, the Ancestor Land of the Jade Fox Clan could never be the Heavenly Pool Thunder Marsh.

Even if this place held a tenfold resemblance to the Heavenly Pool Thunder Marsh, Zhou Yan would not think it was where he had once ventured.

Zhou Yan glanced around, the Immortal Energy filled the air, yet the Immortal Energy could not be absorbed, nor refined.

There was no danger here, nor vitality, though the place was suffused with Immortal Aura, a fog swirling around.

Zhou Yan unleashed his Divine Soul Power, extending his sensing power into the Void.

Through the sensing power, Zhou Yan discovered the true face of this land amidst the Immortal Aura.

He activated his Bloodline Power, divinity flowing in his eyes, thereby piercing through the mist and Immortal Aura, seeing this desolate world.

Beneath his feet was a cracked land, as if all power had been drained, revealing fissures, with dark ravines occasionally seeping Immortal Energy.

And this Immortal Energy was no longer Immortal Energy, as it lacked its most precious energy core, an empty shell of Immortal Aura.

In the distance, Ancient Mountains withered, Immortal Palaces decayed and collapsed.

On the ancient pavilions and towers, a scene of ruin was portrayed.

Zhou Yan stepped aside from the shallow ravines beneath him, walking step by step along the road on desolate land, treading onto the path of White Jade Soul Stones.

This was an old and precious road, clear from the ancient markings on the White Jade Soul Stones paving the path.

In the true Divine Eyes, this was a Land of Silence, its former prosperity gone, its past Ancestor Land already waning.

Zhou Yan followed this road, passing by the withered Nine-layered Immortal Mountain, saw many dead Supreme Divine Medicine in the mountain's medicinal fields, viewed numerous decayed trees, and witnessed sheer cliffs.

Crossing the Nine-layered Immortal Mountain, flying over the cliffs, Zhou Yan arrived at a place similar to the Heavenly Pool Thunder Marsh, where an Immortal Pool lay.

It was the true Life Inheritance land of the Jade Fox Clan.

This Ancestor Land, all places were worn down, palaces had crumbled, yet Immortal Aura still lingered, along with a haze of mystery.

Its source was from this Inheritance Land.

Zhou Yan approached the Immortal Pool, ascended to the Main Peak of the Immortal Pool, where lush trees stood, verdant Immortal Herbs grew, and a harmonious scent of flowers and birdsong lingered.

However, these thrived due to ancient complex Arrays nurturing them, not the natural fruition of this Ancestor Land, so after understanding, Zhou Yan felt a touch of melancholy.

If even the Ancestor Land and Inheritance Land of the Jade Fox Clan had succumbed to annihilation, what in this world truly remains eternal?

First among the Ten Thousand Spirits was the Jade Fox Clan. Though there were claims that the Jade Fox Clan had perished in the tide of history, meeting the Jade Fox Clan multiple times, Zhou Yan had never imagined they truly went extinct.

Yet now seeing this Ancestor Land, Zhou Yan suddenly felt a wave of realization, as if the series of messages he had acquired in the past were indeed true.

Standing by the vast lake of the Heavenly Pool Thunder Marsh, on this Heavenly Pond Mountain, Zhou Yan saw the clear Immortal Pool, saw the Enlightened Thunder Marsh land.

This place was nearly identical to the Heavenly Pool Thunder Marsh he encountered, but different in that this Immortal Pool Thunder Marsh here was clear.

The water was crystal clear, one glance revealing what lay within.

And just this one glance sent a shiver down Zhou Yan's spine, a bone-chilling cold arising.

In the Heavenly Pool Thunder Marsh, lay a mass of corpses of Extraordinary Women wearing white veils, each appearing in a slumber of deep peace, each posture resembling that of Gu Xi when she fell into sleep.

And this mound of Extraordinary Women's corpses covered the whole lakebed of the Heavenly Pool Thunder Marsh, seeming like they were resting, bathed by the Spiritual Spring, asleep.

Each wore exquisitely beautiful white veils, beneath the clear waters, the jade-like soft elastic peaks visible fully, their breathtaking bodies shrouded like Fairies in sheer veil, only adding to the temptation.

If it were just one, it would stir instinctual desire, but it was not one, rather at least over a hundred thousand in number, and not living, but dead.
