In preparation for a grand ritual, a sinister altar is constructed and consecrated with blood. Grand Elder Jii Wusheng instructs the elite of the Three-eyed Demon Clan to protect the Seventh Prince Congyun as he enters the altar to contend for the Ancient Demon God's legacy. Thousands of human slaves and demon beasts are sacrificed to power an Inherited Blood Banner, which then transports Congyun and twelve elites into the Ancient Demon God's world. Meanwhile, Ye Zhen senses a surge of similar auras approaching.

By now, it had been almost two hours since Ye Zhen’s Mystical Mechanism Avatar entered the Secret Realm through the White Bone Gate.

During these two hours, the Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten had carried Ye Zhen and the Mystical Mechanism Avatar, exploring at least 800,000 li of territory.

What frustrated Ye Zhen was that despite exploring nearly 800,000 li of territory, they found absolutely nothing.

The entire 800,000 li was just an expanse of blood-colored wasteland and glistening white bones, devoid of any other aura.

Even when observing from high above with Eye Power, it appeared just the same; nothing that seemed like an inheritance from an Ancient Demon God came into sight.

Ye Zhen even began to suspect that perhaps this entire Secret Realm would be filled with such monotonous desolation and white bones.

Or perhaps, he had only entered an Illusory Realm, as this uniform blood-colored wasteland gave a strong sense of unreality.

However, as Ye Zhen pondered, both his and the Mystical Mechanism Avatar’s gazes simultaneously turned towards the depths of the blood-drenched sky, then towards the War Soul Blood Flag hovering above the Mystical Mechanism Avatar.

At that moment, Ye Zhen and the Mystical Mechanism Avatar simultaneously felt an impression, as if several auras similar to the War Soul Blood Flag were rapidly approaching.

Moreover, they were coming at an incredible speed.

Ye Zhen and the Mystical Mechanism Avatar exchanged puzzled glances, then suddenly turned their heads to look behind them.

From the distant sky behind, the Void Barrier slightly fluctuated, and a point of blood light seemed to pass through an uninhabited realm, directly penetrating from the Void Barrier, heading straight towards the direction behind Ye Zhen and his group.

As that point of blood light approached the ground, its speed began to rapidly decrease, and the mass of blood light became more or less clear.

At the moment of clarity, Ye Zhen’s face suddenly changed dramatically.

War Soul Blood Flag!

That point of blood light was yet another War Soul Blood Flag.

However, the War Soul Blood Flag formed by that point of blood light had a completely different aura from Ye Zhen’s War Soul Blood Flag.

Ye Zhen’s War Soul Blood Flag was a pure mixture of battle intent, killing intent, and evil qi, but the aura of that War Soul Blood Flag itself was very weak, with a faint, inexplicable scent of blood.

Almost the moment that Blood Flag unfolded, the War Soul Blood Flag above the Mystical Mechanism Avatar’s head moved slightly, suddenly fluttering noisily without wind.

The War Soul Blood Flag unexpectedly gave Ye Zhen a feeling of extreme excitement, and Ye Zhen knew well that the target of the War Soul Blood Flag’s excitement should be that Blood Flag.

"Is this Blood Flag related to the War Soul Blood Flag?"

Just as Ye Zhen was puzzled, the Blood Flag unfurled completely, revealing eight Winged Demons, three of which were Winged Demon Demon Venerables with eight wings, and five of which were Realm King Realm Winged Demons with six wings.

The moment the eight Winged Demons appeared, they swiftly arranged themselves into a defensive formation, vigilantly observing their surroundings.

"Demon Clan?"

Almost at the moment Ye Zhen looked over, the leading figure of the eight Winged Demons, Winged Demon Demon Venerable Yii Tuo, gazed at Ye Zhen.

Upon seeing Ye Zhen, Yii Tuo’s face changed.

"Human Clan?"

His expression became incredibly unsightly and shocked.

Seeing Ye Zhen’s Mystical Mechanism Avatar didn’t surprise him; this was the land of inheritance of the Ancient Demon God, where the Three-eyed Demon Clan and Heritage Banner appeared, which was normal.

However, the appearance of a Human Clan member in the place of inheritance of the Ancient Demon God was exceedingly strange.

It was as shocking as if a Demon Clan abruptly appeared in Luoyi, the Imperial Capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

With just a glance, Winged Demon Demon Venerable Yii Tuo waved towards Ye Zhen’s direction, saying, "Surround and kill! Capture that Human Clan member alive!"

In this place of inheritance of the Ancient Demon God, any non-clan member was considered an enemy, even if it was the Three-eyed Demon Clan of the same Demon world.

Moreover, a Three-eyed Demon in alliance with a Human Clan member was even more unacceptable.

With a massive flap of the black wings, adorned with Mysterious Patterns, a thunderous sound echoed, and the eight Winged Demons transformed into eight black lines, quickly surrounding Ye Zhen and his group.

Ye Zhen’s gaze, however, was fixed on the blood light atop the fastest black line.

The fastest of those black lines was formed by the Winged Demon Demon Venerable leader, Yii Tuo, and the blood light atop his head was the Blood Flag that led them into this place of inheritance.

Moreover, the purpose of this Blood Flag was far from complete, as it could specifically direct them to the location of the fallen Ancient Demon God’s inheritance.

So, it was temporarily held by the strongest.

But Ye Zhen had an interest in the Blood Flag held by these Demon Clans, or more precisely, Ye Zhen’s War Soul Blood Flag had an interest in the Blood Flags that shared a common origin held by those Winged Demons.

Confronting the eight Winged Demons charging towards them, Ye Zhen remained unmoved, with only a cold smile playing at the corner of his lips.

Even if these Winged Demons hadn’t charged over, Ye Zhen would still have sought them out, as the War Soul Blood Flag took an interest in them.

Just as these Winged Demons were about to charge in, the space where Ye Zhen and his group stood suddenly manifested a miracle.

The originally lifeless Blood-colored Land suddenly came to life.

Streams of blood light gathered together, swiftly twisting and coalescing, in an instant transforming into formidable Blood Demon Souls.

The instant these Blood Demon Souls materialized, each let out a wild howl like a beast, directing the blood light between heaven and earth to swiftly gather towards them.

Their auras began to rise rapidly.

However, the rate of ascent varied; some Blood Demon Souls soared quickly, with their Cultivation aura rising like bamboo joints, while most Blood Demon Souls ascended at a slower pace.

Moreover, the higher their Cultivation rose, the slower their speed became.

Most Blood Demon Souls reached the Dao Entrance Realm in an instant, after which their ascent slowed considerably.

Only less than ten percent could ascend to the Divine Communication Realm, and among those that reached the Divine Communication Realm, only half could continue to enhance their cultivation to the Dark Palace Realm.

As for those breaking through to the Realm King Realm, they were even fewer.

But the sheer numbers made up for it.

In just the brief span of a single breath, as far as Ye Zhen could see, over 200,000 Blood Demon Souls had materialized within a radius of hundreds of li.

More terrifyingly, the previously pervasive white bones throughout the Secret Realm seemed to awaken, as incomplete bones crawled up from the ground, haphazardly piecing together a bone here and a bone there, and with a flicker of white light, a Skeleton Warrior, as smooth as jade, appeared on the scene.

The aura of these Skeleton Warriors changed little, but the bones constituting their bodies were exceedingly extraordinary. From Ye Zhen’s perspective, even the lowest among them belonged to beings of the Realm King Realm Cultivation that had perished.

This alone determined that the physical strength of these Skeleton Warriors was extraordinarily formidable.

What was even more terrifying was that the number of these Skeleton Warriors outnumbered the Blood Demon Souls, making Ye Zhen’s scalp tingle.

At this moment, with a whooshing sound, the eight Winged Demons surrounded Ye Zhen and the Mystical Mechanism Avatar from afar, their staggering killing intent rippling through the air, falling upon Ye Zhen and the Mystical Mechanism Avatar.
