Just as Duan Gujin thought he could cultivate well in the Land of Despair, the unexpected happened; he received a message from Zhan Luan.

After returning to the castle, he found out that the Suspended Holy Mother had summoned all Devil Clansmen under the age of forty at the Martial Emperor Realm to participate in the challenge at Xuankong Mountain.

"Whoever passes through the Space-Time Treasure Hall will be rewarded with treasures by the Suspended Holy Mother."

Zhan Luan passed the announcement from the Suspended Holy Mother to Duan Gujin to read.

Hearing this, Duan Gujin's brow furrowed, and he hastily asked,

"Uncle, what kind of game is the Suspended Holy Mother playing?"

Zhan Luan replied, "I'm not quite sure, but based on the contents here, it is very likely that the Suspended Holy Mother has found a ruin known as the Space-Time Treasure Hall, filled with many mechanical traps. She has sacrificed many of her subordinates, yet she still couldn't unravel the ruin, so now she's letting other members of the Devil Clan take on the challenge. It's a strong possibility."

After listening to Zhan Luan, Duan Gujin was speechless.

"Is Miao Yu going then?"

Duan Gujin flipped through the information and asked.

"All Devil Clansmen under forty at the Martial Emperor Realm must enter the Space-Time Treasure Hall and take part in this challenge! She must go too,"

Zhan Luan stated seriously.

"This is an invitation from the Suspended Holy Mother of your Devil Clan. It wouldn't be appropriate for me to follow her in, right? I am, after all, from the Human Clan!" Duan Gujin's brow furrowed deeply.

Zhan Luan explained, "You also have the Elephant Martial Soul. As long as you manifest the Elephant Martial Soul, most Demon Saints won't notice that you are not from the Devil Clan but the Human Clan! If I didn't know you, I would truly have thought you were from the Devil Clan when I first met you! I want you to accompany Miao Yu, hoping you can take care of her for me!"

"Oh!"

Duan Gujin's eyes flickered. He pondered for a moment and felt Zhan Luan was right.

The Giant Demon Dragon Elephant Martial Soul inside him was not an ordinary Martial Soul. As long as he persisted in manifesting it, even a high-level expert like the Suspended Holy Mother would only discover his true identity as a member of the Human Clan after delving deep into his soul sea and finding his Heavenly Dragon Martial Soul.

In fact, as long as he kept away from Shattering Void Realm experts, most Demon Saints would be completely unable to discern the Heavenly Dragon Martial Soul hidden within the depths of his soul sea.

"I heard that the Earth Demon Saint Fu Di has already sent five Devil Clansmen at the Martial Emperor Realm to prepare for entering Xuankong Mountain!"

Zhan Luan said.

"Why can the Earth Demon Saint Fu Di send so many high-level experts? They have five on their side, but Uncle, you only have Miao Yu."

Duan Gujin immediately filled with curiosity.

"Their Golden Eagle Clan has strong innate abilities and holds significant advantages in cultivation!"

Zhan Luan immediately divulged the truth.

"Oh, so that's it!"

Upon hearing this, Duan Gujin took a deep breath, his eyes shimmering.

"Could this Space-Time Treasure Hall be the legendary Space-Time Treasure Hall? It seems I should check it out with Miao Yu!"

Thus, he decided to go to Xuankong Mountain with Miao Yu.

Three days later, under Zhan Luan's guidance, he and Miao Yu arrived at the Transmission Altar leading to Xuankong Mountain located in Hundred Saints Mountain.

There, they saw Earth Demon Saint Fu Di and a few members of the Devil Clan.

"Miao Yu!"

Upon Miao Yu's arrival, the excited young man's eyes were shining brightly.

After exchanging pleasantries with Fu Di, Zhan Luan sent Duan Gujin and others into the Transmission Altar.

Once the subordinates sent by other Demon Saints arrived at the designated Transmission Altar, it was activated.

A powerful Transmission Energy quickly teleported everyone to Xuankong Mountain.

Once he confirmed that the surrounding Transmission Energy stabilized, Duan Gujin breathed a sigh of relief, knowing he had probably arrived at Xuankong Mountain.

He looked around and found that Xuankong Mountain was bathed in spring's radiance, with a gentle breeze that invigorated his spirit.

He scanned the vicinity and saw Miao Yu and the other members of the Devil Clan descending nearby.

Looking around, he discovered a large group of Devil Clan members flocking toward them.

"Come over here, all of you!"

A Demon Saint with a tiger-like demeanor came walking towards them, signaling for them to follow.

Duan Gujin stayed close to Miao Yu, moving together with her.

Moments later, under the guidance of that Demon Saint, they entered a Transmission Altar.

This time, Duan Gujin noticed that the transmission took a longer time, leading him to surmise that the distance traveled was likely much further.

About half an hour later, the Transmission Energy surrounding him finally stabilized.

When the surrounding Transmission Energy had calmed down, Duan Gujin began to look around, and he immediately saw a massive palace in front of him, as imposing as a mountain range.

"What a huge palace!"

Miao Yu's exclamation soon followed at his side.

"Yes!"

Duan Gujin quickly agreed.

Miao Yu was seeing such a grand building for the first time and her face was a picture of shock.

At this moment, Duan Gujin was also profoundly stunned.

The palace that appeared before him was made of pure gold; under the sunlight, it radiated waves of golden brilliance.

The palace was vast and looked extremely opulent, with numerous statues of living creatures around it.

Those statues were so lifelike that they occasionally shimmered with flowing light.

Duan Gujin extended his Divine Sense and quickly discovered that the entire exterior of the palace was protected by numerous Arrays.

"My god!"

The members of the Devil Clan exclaimed upon seeing the palace, as a thought instantly crossed their minds.

The palace they were looking at could definitely not belong to the Devil Clan.

Because, given the innate nature of the Devil Clan, they would certainly be incapable of constructing such a grand and imposing palace.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you can now rest well here for a moment. After you've recuperated, you will follow me. Once you enter that palace, you'll have to make your way through on your own. I believe your Great Saint has already informed you!" said the tiger-headed Demon Saint.

The Devil Clan members present had previously prepared a large amount of Elixir Pills to restore their depleted demonic power inside the palace.

Normally, the Devil Clan would not know how to forge storage rings, Dark Weapons, or refine various Elixir Pills.

The storage rings, Dark Weapons, and Elixir Pills on the Devil Clan members were all crafted or refined by the Human Clan.

Although there were some geniuses within the Devil Clan capable of refining Elixir Pills or forging Dark Weapons, such talented individuals were rare.

An hour later, the tiger-headed Demon Saint led everyone to the front of the palace.

Duan Gujin looked up and saw the words "Space-Time Treasure Hall" inscribed on the horizontal plaque on the palace.

"So this is indeed the real Space-Time Treasure Hall!"

Upon seeing those words, Duan Gujin's expression changed drastically.

He had heard of the Space-Time Treasure Hall back when he was on the Yuanzhen Continent.

It was said that the Space-Time Treasure Hall was a Treasure created by a Golden Immortal, one that moved freely in the Lower Realm. Its movements were erratic and unpredictable, making it nearly impossible to track.
