At Devil’s Den, Jiang Hao stood deep in the forest and watched a senior in the distance, who was splitting up with the others as they entered. He found that strange.

‘They split up as soon as they came in?’

This area wasn’t too deep inside, so there shouldn’t be a need to separate.

He had wanted to see if he could locate Senior Brother Qian Chen and then make his move. This way, he could finish it all at once.

When he had just entered, he noticed that the array here had a certain chance of detecting him.

It was different from ordinary arrays. It was an array of Devil’s Den, after all.

The people inside might know that an uninvited guest had arrived, but whether they would inform the others was unknown.

Regardless, he didn’t have much time to spare.

He needed to either find Senior Qian Chen as quickly as possible or find the Blood Pool.

It was difficult to find people, but he could find the Blood Pool more accurately.

The Blood Pool didn’t seem to be in a fixed location. Instead, it required the establishment of an array to resonate with it and create a pathway to reach it. One needed to be close to the Blood Pool for this to be effective.

Finding the Blood Pool involved three steps: firstly, using an array to detect the aura of the Blood Pool. Secondly, using fresh blood to dye the array red and create resonance. Finally, using a special method to establish a pathway. After that, it depended on the person’s abilities.

If he couldn’t enter the Blood Pool, Jiang Hao would have to search for Senior Brother Qian Chen.

He had made other preparations, so no matter what the outcome was, he would be able to escape safely.

After a short while, the array appeared on the ground. After activation, it indeed had the aura of the Blood Pool.

‘It seems I can start here without going deeper.’

Jiang Hao didn’t know what was in the depths of Devil’s Den. Hong Yuye hadn’t made that clear.

But as soon as he looked ahead, he saw the stars flowing backward and falling, and because of this, he dared not approach.

Once he made sure that he could proceed, he used his blade to cut himself, and then the blood dripped onto the array.

At that moment, the array seemed to come to life. It guided the flow of blood and resonated with something deep within the earth.

When the blood covered the entire array, Jiang Hao began to establish a pathway.

A red light exploded, and a blood mist enveloped the surroundings. However, after a while, a crimson path appeared.

Jiang Hao took a step forward and walked in.

At the same time, the power he had left outside also exploded.

It erased his traces.

His blood was incinerated by the purple flames.

Jiang Hao continued forward.

Nangong Yue didn’t know the way to the Blood Pool, but she knew it was extremely difficult to get inside.

People from the Saint Bandits had mentioned it, so it was likely to be true. As he walked further and further, the blood mist got thicker.

Fortunately, the mist dissipated on its own and created a path for him. However, he didn’t know what would appear on this path or whom he might encounter.

The deeper he went, the denser the mist became. Jiang Hao saw some bones on the path, along with damaged magical treasures.

The bloodstains on the ground became more pronounced and turned moist.

It felt like he might enter the Blood Pool if he kept moving forward.

Sure enough, blood began to flow on the path. Although it was only on the sides, it gave him the feeling that he was about to walk into a sea of blood.

The endless blood mist felt like a black cloud pressing down on him. It was ready to envelop him at any point.contemporary romance

He felt as though he would soon become a part of the Blood Pool.

Jiang Hao took a step and felt that he was stepping on something gelatinous. He lowered his head and saw blood.

The path was about to be covered entirely by blood.

Jiang Hao stood still and hesitated. He wondered if he had taken the wrong path, or if the only way to reach the Blood Pool was to enter it.

After some hesitation, he continued walking forward.

Slowly, the path beneath his feet completely turned into blood. He could feel that the deeper he walked, the denser the blood became.

The blood mist continued to disperse, and after a long while, a human figure appeared in the blood mist.

Jiang Hao was startled when he saw the figure. The mist was now thin enough that he saw the person’s face clearly.

It was a man with a stubble. He was standing on the surface of a pool made out of blood. His aura was vast and indestructible. It was hard for Jiang Hao to clearly sense anything.

He used the Daily Appraisal ability without hesitation.

[Gu Jin: A scholar from the Astronomical Academy. He was imprisoned here for prying into the origins of the Blood Pool and fell into eternal suffering. He is unable to freely leave this place.]

‘Astronomical Academy?’ Jiang Hao was surprised. How could someone like that be here? It appeared that he was still alive.

However, one thing was certain: this place was likely the Blood Pool. Jiang Hao was walking above the Blood Pool.

His plan had failed.

The Blood Pool wasn’t at all like what he had thought. It wasn’t a pool of water where he could lie in wait. At this point, he couldn’t wait for Senior Brother

Qian Chen.

Suddenly, the man opened his eyes. He looked at Jiang Hao.

The blood water surged, but it only churned for a moment before settling

down.

“How did you get here?” the man asked in a hoarse voice.

Jiang Hao frowned. “I used a passage to come here.”

He didn’t lie to this person because he didn’t sense any danger from him.

Furthermore, he could activate the golden ring and leave. It was his escape route.

Gu Jin looked at the man in front of him and chuckled. “You seem quite young, but you’re very confident. ‘

“I don’t understand what you mean, Senior,” said Jiang Hao.

Gu Jin didn’t dwell on it much either. He stretched his muscles and looked down at the blood water. He looked melancholic. “I haven’t seen a living person in many years, especially a young one.”

“Why are you here, senior?” Jiang Hao asked.

“Why are you here?” Gu Jin asked in return.

“I’m here to see the Blood Pool.”

“I came to see it too. I was arrogant and thought I could find out about the origins of the Blood Pool’s formation, but I overestimated myself. All disasters and hardships are here. I came too early.” Gu Jin shook his head with regret.

Jiang Hao frowned. He didn’t understand what this person was getting at. Still, he made a mental note not to explore the origins of the Blood Pool.

“Which sect or school do you belong to?” Gu Jin asked.Ñøv€l-B1n was the first platform to present this chapter.

“I’m just a wandering cultivator,” Jiang Hao said.

Nowadays, he had assumed the identity of Smiling San Sheng, so he naturally wouldn’t reveal his affiliation with the Heavenly Note Sect.

“A wandering cultivator? I can see that you don’t want to tell me the truth.” Gu Jin smiled. “Let’s play a game then. If you win, I’ll give you something. If you lose, you’ll stay here with me.”

“Thank you for the offer, Senior, but I’m not very much into games.” Jiang Hao declined his offer with a shake of his head. “In that case, answer two questions for me.”

“I don’t have much knowledge to do that, either.”

“How about I teach you a technique that can suppress all things?” “I don’t think I’m the right person to receive something like that.”

“You’re quite stubborn. Do you know who I am? Do you know what I can give you?”

“I don’t know, but I didn’t come here looking for opportunities. I came here to look for someone.”

Gu Jin looked at the man in front of him in amusement. “I can sense that two people have approached the Blood Pool through unconventional means, but they are only getting close and cannot enter the true Blood Pool. Is one of them the person you’re looking for?”

As he spoke, images appeared on both sides of the Blood Pool.

On the left was Qian Chen, who was walking around the Blood Pool but hadn’t reached the edge yet.

On the right was a man standing in a shallow part of the Blood Pool. His whole body was covered in blood. He was absorbing fresh blood from the pool.

This person was none other than Liu Xingchen, who had gone missing.

“I’ve observed both of these individuals for a while. They are somewhat interesting, but they are too far away, and I can’t communicate with them, so I’m not very interested. Besides, I don’t think they’ll be able to reach this place even in a hundred years, which makes it even less amusing to me,” Gu Jin said

with a smile..
