The ancient coffin paused slightly above the Sea of Blood, then began to slowly descend towards the sea's surface.
Wooo!
Driven by the pressure of the descending ancient coffin, the blood-colored sea level of the Sea of Blood suddenly parted in all directions, forming a massive vortex.
As this vortex spun, it dispersed the sea's blood-red waters everywhere, creating a black hole.
This black hole continued to sink towards the seabed of the Sea of Blood.
Inside the ancient coffin, Feng Jia seized the opportunity and plunged toward the seabed through the black hole.
In the blink of an eye, the ancient coffin descended further, reaching the point where it was level with the sea surface surrounding the black hole.
Boom! Woo! Awo~ Aah~
Suddenly, a loud explosion sounded around the black hole, followed by agonized howls, as a gigantic blood-colored human figure fiercely lunged from one side of the blood-colored waters straight at the ancient coffin where Feng Jia was.
Roaring, the blood-colored figure extended both hands simultaneously, clenching them into fists, and struck fiercely at the ancient coffin's base.
Blood Light burst forth, extremely violent, as if the blood-colored figure aimed to pierce the ancient coffin with a single blow.
"Damn it! There are actually Blood Spirits!"
Feng Jia inside the ancient coffin cursed furiously upon sensing the situation. However, even as she cursed, a hole suddenly ripped open at the coffin's base.
The moment this hole opened, red light flashed from within the coffin, laced with a scent of blood with a deathly aura.
Following that, a shriveled black hand suddenly extended from the hole.
As soon as this shriveled black hand extended, it formed a claw and seized the giant blood-colored figure fiercely, attacking later but striking first.
Poof!
Under Feng Jia's attack, the gigantic blood-colored figure immediately shattered, turning into blood water and dissipating. The thick blood water trickled down along the claw formed by the shriveled black hand.
Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!
As the sound of flowing blood water echoed tens of times, at the moment Feng Jia had just destroyed the blood-colored figure, waves surged up in the blood-colored waters.
From beneath the surface came not just a few, but dozens, even hundreds of gigantic blood-colored figures rushing out, some faintly exuding the aura of the True God Realm.
Once these blood-colored figures emerged, they glared with blood-red eyes, glaring fiercely at the ancient coffin.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Subsequently, these blood-colored figures all moved simultaneously, flying towards the ancient coffin where Feng Jia resided.
"Impossible! Damn it, how are there so many more?"
Feng Jia cursed in shock, and simultaneously maneuvered the ancient coffin to rise into the air, fleeing towards the outside of the Sea of Blood.
Awo~, Aah~, Wooo!
The cries and roars echoed from behind Feng Jia, as the blood-colored human figures chased after her in rage.

"Such intense Blood Light… Where… Where is this place?"
Xiao Mu appeared after Creation's White Light flashed.
He was severely injured, with half of his body sliced away by Chao Xiong using the Light of Fate.
Nevertheless, having cultivated the Life Force, Xiao Mu seemed unconcerned about his injuries and continuously emitted several orbs of Life Force to heal his body, as he started to observe his surroundings.
Upon seeing the environment, Xiao Mu was immediately astonished.
He was in a valley.
This entire valley was filled with dense Blood Light, and from underground, blood water was constantly flowing, making a bubbling noise, forming an endless blood river.
The Blood Light, blood river, and blood water emanated a sinister aura, suppressing all other auras, including Xiao Mu's own powers.
"Where is this? What place is this? What are these Blood Abilities?"
Xiao Mu was perplexed by his surroundings, pondering in confusion.
This Blood Light seemed to shield all perception; he tried probing with his Divine Sense, but it was quickly suppressed by the Blood Light, confining his perception to only two or three meters.
This suppression startled Xiao Mu.
With perception suppressed, he couldn't detect danger in advance, making this Blood Valley an extremely perilous place.
"Should I leave… or investigate a bit? The Blood Abilities released here seem unique, possibly absorbable by the Blood Cloud Flag?"
"Also, why hasn't Chao Xiong caught up? Could the Blood Light be obstructing information?"
Xiao Mu pondered, conjecturing multiple possibilities.
The idea that the Blood Abilities could be absorbed by the Blood Cloud Flag was especially tempting to him.
If the Blood Cloud Flag could absorb the Blood Abilities, this Blood Valley would be enormously beneficial to him and might temporarily perfect the Blood Cloud Flag through the Blood Abilities.
"I wonder if Chao Xiong simply can't find me, or hasn't chased me yet,"
Xiao Mu thought again as he looked deeper into the Blood Valley, "Forget it, I'll go in to take a look."
"This Blood Valley might help me enhance the Blood Cloud Flag."
"If the Blood Cloud Flag is enhanced, my strength will further increase. Engaging an enemy afterward will also be more assured."
Thinking this, Xiao Mu activated the Escape Art and swiftly moved deeper into the Blood Valley.
Whiz! Whiz! Whiz!
Xiao Mu's figure morphed into the Five Elements' divine light, rapidly flickering forward in the Blood Valley.

"Xiao Mu, the Heavenly Court people, and most of our human forces have entered Wu Yun Pass. Gu Mei, should we cross the pass? The Wu Yun Pass area will see large-scale battles, and humans are weaker, seemingly unable to match the Heavenly Court. Should we go over to help?"
In front of Dahong Pass stood Gu Mei, Sun Hong, Chen Tong, and others.
Sun Hong glanced at Gu Mei, unable to resist asking.
Both Sun Hong, Chen Tong, and others hoped to cross over and aid their people in fighting against the Heavenly Court, despite the human-mutated beings being far inferior to the Heavenly Court in combined strength.
But because of their inferiority, should they refrain from battling, allowing the Life and Death Seal to fall into the Heavenly Court's hands?
However, they decided to follow Gu Mei's lead, as she had saved them all from beneath Dahong Pass.
"If we cross, battles behind Dahong Pass in the Wu Yun Pass area will be fierce,"
Gu Mei hesitated upon hearing this, unsure of what to decide.
Sun Hong, Chen Tong, and the others exchanged strange looks upon witnessing her hesitation.
Gu Mei worried about the fierceness of battles?
Wasn't this woman always proud and arrogant, dismissive of others? Is she really worrying about the fierceness of battles?
They were unaware that because of being previously manipulated by Chen Ming and suffering setbacks, with her subordinates killed by Heavenly Court experts, she herself nearly killed, Gu Mei's mindset had changed.
In her thoughts, Gu Mei suddenly raised her head and said, "Chen Ming has already gone to Dahong Pass, what about Xu Lang, has he gone too? Does anyone have means to detect or contact Xu Lang and Qin Gui to track their whereabouts?"
"Facing a Great War with the Heavenly Court requires gathering all forces, otherwise, with just us, confronting the Heavenly Court head-on offers no chance of victory."

Whiz! Whiz! Whiz!
In the Blood Light, Xiao Mu's figure flickered in and out as he deployed the Five Elements Escaping Technique, speeding across the Blood Valley.
The blood scent in the air thickened ahead.
Suddenly, an immense, bottomless cliff loomed in front of Xiao Mu, blocking his path.
"Where is this again? What place is this?"
Xiao Mu promptly halted his escape light, stabilized his form before the blood-colored cliff, and cautiously approached to peer down the precipice.
The blood-colored cliff seemed endless from above, and the blood river flowed across its top, cascading as a waterfall, relentlessly plunging downward.
Following this, Xiao Mu's gaze shifted, spotting a Blood Space Gorge in mid-air beneath the cliff's waterfall, exuding peculiar blood-red energy.
