"Eh eh, don't rush, one at a time, meow." Uncle Orange was dizzy from Liang Yi's barrage of questions and hurriedly placed a paw on Liang Yi's mouth.

Liang Yi blinked his large eyes, watching Yue Bai and the others give a brief account of the events to Senior Qingqiu Mingli from after her epoch's destruction. Then he signaled Uncle Orange with his eyes to begin his tale.

"I met that Yu Wei you spoke of, now he's staying by the side of the Blood Demon, meow."

Who knew that Uncle Orange's first sentence would scare Liang Yi immensely.

Following the direction Uncle Orange was pointing, a pitch-black cave quietly stood behind the crowd. The dark entrance was like a ferocious beast choosing its prey, and from within the cave emanated an intensely cold yin energy.

"Let's hear what happened..." Liang Yi found a spot to sit down, pulling Zhou Zuixi over to listen to Uncle Orange.

"Ah, you see, didn't I follow that Abyss Will here, meow?" Uncle Orange squatted next to Liang Yi and began to recount his experiences since he arrived.

"This valley was once eroded by the Abyss, and there must have been an Abyss Gate opened here. So the Abyss intended to turn this world into its dominion. Even after all these years, some of the Abyss Intent still lingers. If the Abyss Will finds the spot where the gate was originally opened, it could effortlessly reopen the Abyss, meow."

"That place you mentioned where the Abyss was previously opened, it wouldn't happen to be there, would it?" Liang Yi, hearing this, interrupted Uncle Orange briefly, pointing at the cave behind them.

"Hmm-hmm, that's right meow, it's exactly there." Uncle Orange nodded.

"That Yu Wei somehow broke the seal of this Abyssal Rift. He thought it was the Blood Demon sealed inside, but in fact, it was just the Abyss Gate, meow."

"Just when he was at his wits' end, Qingqiu Mingli and the projection of the Abyss Will followed closely. A clash between a residual soul and a projection ensued, both evenly matched. What I witnessed upon arriving was just that scene, meow."

Uncle Orange gestured with both paws, narrating vividly.

"Later on, with my and Yu Wei's help, Qingqiu Mingli managed to forcefully disperse the Abyss Will and prevented that disgusting eyeball from breaking the seal, meow."

"Okay, so how did the Blood Demon come about afterward?" Liang Yi had been listening for a while and still hadn't heard about the biggest twist.

"The Blood Demon, you see, is actually this Secret Realm, meow." Uncle Orange calmly pointed at both the sky and the ground.

"??" Both Liang Yi and Zhou Zuixi were stupefied—this Secret Realm is the Blood Demon?

"Or rather, we're now inside the Blood Demon itself, meow."

Seeing the shock on their faces, Uncle Orange nodded satisfied and continued:

"I'm still unclear on the specifics, but the records you mentioned about Lonely Moon Valley and the Blood Demon injuring each other leading to destruction may be mistaken, for the slumbering Blood Demon was awoken by Qingqiu Mingli, who can also communicate with it, meow."

Liang Yi and Zhou Zuixi exchanged a glance, both seeing confusion in each other's eyes. Although Uncle Orange answered many questions, he also raised many more perplexing issues, which gave Liang Yi quite a headache.

"Still don't get it? Just ask her, meow..." Uncle Orange pointed at Qingqiu Mingli not too far away, if they had questions, why not directly ask the person involved?

By this time, Qingqiu Mingli had just finished listening to Yue Bai and Su Youyi's summary of what had happened after her death, providing her with an understanding of this epoch.

Liang Yi and Zhou Zuixi, who were looking at her with puzzled eyes, heard Qingqiu Mingli say with a slight smile:

"Please follow me first, everyone. I will answer any questions you have about this Secret Realm one by one. I also have a favor to request from you all."

Qingqiu Mingli glanced at Zhou Yuqing, was this person considered the elder of this group of kids? In terms of strength, even during the epoch she lived, this individual would be regarded as a standout. In her perception, this person stood there like a blazing flame.

Before, when she had just awakened, she had sensed two Cultivators of the Eighth Realm in combat, one of them, from the aura, seemed to belong to the Abyss, the other should be from the opposing side.

And as long as they are enemies of the Abyss, they are allies she could trust.

Qingqiu Mingli gestured with her embroidered hand, leading the crowd towards the cave.

Liang Yi glanced at the honorable elder, and only after receiving a reassuring look did he somewhat relievedly follow behind Qingqiu Mingli.

Liu Rouxin followed without a word. She faintly guessed that she might soon meet the second Blood Demon in this world and was feeling a mix of emotions.

Xue Youyou, on the other hand, wasn't too worried. From the behavior of the Blood Demon just now, it seemed that the Blood Demon could be one with rationality, not merely one who knows only slaughter.

Su Youyi and Yue Bai and the others closely followed behind, stepping into the cave together with Liang Yi.

However, as soon as everyone had just crossed the threshold of the cave, the scenery around them suddenly changed.

They should have stepped into a cave, but now they found themselves walking in an endless expanse of white.

The space was boundless and vast, filled only with white. Aside from Liang Yi and his companions, there was not a single other color to be found in the entire space.

Su Youyi and the others were filled with myriad doubts, all somewhat puzzled by the sudden change in scenery. Though equally surprised, only Liang Yi's reason for astonishment differed from the others.

The others were entering this space for the first time, but not Liang Yi.

The place where that guild encountered the Blood Demon in the previous life was in this very expanse of endless white.

However, at that time, they had accidentally entered near the edge of the Secret Realm, whereas now they were in a cave at the very center of the Secret Realm.

Liang Yi had originally been wondering why the Blood Demon's location was different from his previous life, but now he realized that this space was probably not fixed, possibly connected to many parts of the Secret Realm.

The honorable elder had also mentioned before that the Secret Realm was essentially the Blood Demon, so such a situation was not that surprising.

Zhou Yuqing was quietly assessing this space - this space seemed to be an incredible Magical Treasure? Yet, unlike other treasures, the feeling it gave Zhou Yuqing was also quite different.

Inside Liu Rouxin, Xue Youyou's expression was solemn. Since the day of her birth, she never imagined she would one day see a second Blood Demon.

Su Youyi and Yue Bai were just following Liang Yi, and though they were curious about the surrounding space that seemed even whiter than a vast snowy cover, they didn't ask much else.

After about the time it takes an incense stick to burn, a speck of black suddenly appeared before everyone, like a drop of black ink staining an impeccably clean sheet of white paper, strikingly noticeable.

As Liang Yi and the others approached, they discovered that this black smudge was actually a door!
