But he still hasn't achieved a breakthrough, and he found that quite frustrating.

So, he informed Chaos-cutting Demon Saint about his current state.

After listening, Chaos-cutting Demon Saint immediately gave Duan Gujin a piece of information.

"Actually, here at Hundred Saints Mountain, almost every Demon Saint has their own Cultivation Secret Land behind them, constructed by Xuankong Mountain to cultivate each Demon Clan prodigy! Our Heavenly Fox Clan has the Land of Despair, and other Demon Saints have their respective cultivation places!"

Upon hearing Chaos-cutting Demon Saint's words, Duan Gujin's eyes flickered and he asked, "So Uncle, are you suggesting that I should try breaking into the secret lands of other Demon Saints?"

Chaos-cutting Demon Saint quickly shook his head and said, "No, I have a place that's very suitable for your cultivation. Here in Hundred Saints Mountain, there's an Ancient Sacred Mountain, which a long time ago, was the holy land of the Demon Clan! It was once home to a very famous Demon Saint of Hundred Saints Mountain, named Heartless. After he became a Demon Saint, he became ruthless, cutting off all family ties, and it's said it was because he suffered a Deviation that made him lose all familial affection! Once he severed all relations, he slaughtered all of his subordinates and kin. He then drastically altered the whole Ancient Sacred Mountain, and it eventually turned into an extremely desolate place! As to why that Ancient Sacred Mountain became such a desolate place, it's an unsolved mystery of Hundred Saints Mountain!"

Chaos-cutting Demon Saint exhaled and then continued, "Let me tell you, every Demon Saint has a connection to their ancestor's secret lands. Once you intrude into another Demon Saint's secret land, that Demon Saint will immediately sense your presence! If those Demon Saints act against you, it's unlikely you'll be able to escape from them! And it's said that within the ruins of Heartless Demon Saint, not only is there a Cultivation Secret Land, but also many treasures of Ancient Sacred Mountain! You can give it a try!"

Duan Gujin's eyes sparkled, and he suddenly asked, "Uncle, if there are so many treasures in the ruins of Heartless Demon Saint, then why do you Demon Saints not enter it?"

"It's not that we don't want to go in, but that the Heartless Demon Saint has drawn the Earth Qi of the Human Clan into the Ancient Sacred Mountain, turning it into a wasteland. You know that the borderlands between the Human Race World and the Demon Clan World are very desolate, almost barren, becoming an abandoned mountain in the end. Naturally, once the Ancient Sacred Mountain was infused with the Earth Qi of the Human Race World, it became influenced by the Rule Power of the Human Race World, and moreover, there are Killing Arrays set up by the Heartless Demon Saint! Once we Demon Saints enter, our Combat Power is severely reduced, and the Killing Arrays can easily grind us to dust! We caught some people from the Human Clan before and let them into the mountain, hoping to discover the secrets of the Ancient Sacred Mountain through them, but all of those attempts failed, with all the Humans who went in being annihilated!"

"Oh, then please lead the way, Uncle! I'd like to see what's inside!"

Duan Gujin's interest was piqued upon hearing this.

"Okay, I will take you there now. Whether you decide to go in is up to you," said Chaos-cutting Demon Saint.

"Alright! Please lead the way!"

Under the guidance of Chaos-cutting Demon Saint, Duan Gujin followed him for hundreds of kilometers, eventually reaching a very desolate area of Hundred Saints Mountain.

In most areas of Hundred Saints Mountain, it was lush and densely forested.

Also, most regions are permeated with Demon Energy, very suitable for Demon Clan survival and Cultivation.

Duan Gujin released his Divine Sense to scout ahead.

After a while, he confirmed that the Rule Power ahead was completely different from the rest of Hundred Saints Mountain.

"You said that even though the Earth Qi of the Human Race World was drawn here, the Rule Power up ahead is not that of the Human Race World," Duan Gujin said to Chaos-cutting Demon Saint.

"Yes, we have investigated for a long time and still cannot determine exactly what the situation is," Chaos-cutting Demon Saint responded.

Duan Gujin then inquired about the surrounding area near the Ancient Sacred Mountain, and Chaos-cutting Demon Saint told him that all the surrounding areas are territories of the Demon Clan.

"This doesn't seem quite logical," Duan Gujin muttered, frowning thoughtfully.

"Why do you feel that some things don't quite make sense? Tell me about it!"

Zhan Luan immediately became interested upon hearing this.

"Uncle, could you take me around the Ancient Sacred Mountain? I want to see just how big the Ancient Sacred Mountain really is!"

Duan Gujin pondered for a moment before speaking.

"Sure! I'll take you around! I have plenty of time right now anyway!"

Zhan Luan agreed to Duan Gujin's suggestion and took him around the Ancient Sacred Mountain.

Despite encounters with some members of the Devil Clan on the way who tried to stop them,

once those demons realized they were facing the Chaos-cutting Demon Saint, they all quickly retreated, not daring to provoke him.

However, the spies on Fu Di's side quickly learned that Zhan Luan was moving around the vicinity of the Ancient Sacred Mountain with a member of the Devil Clan.

So, those spies, along with a large group of masters, hurried to the Ancient Sacred Mountain, wanting to figure out just what Zhan Luan was planning to do there with that Demon Saint.

This news quickly reached the ears of Fu Di, whose eyes flickered with thought - he couldn't understand why Zhan Luan would want to take a member of the Devil Clan and wander around the Ancient Sacred Mountain.

"Could it be that there is something unusual about that Ancient Sacred Mountain near Zhan Luan?"

Fu Di felt that Zhan Luan wouldn't take a member of the Devil Clan to idly wander around the Ancient Sacred Mountain for no reason.

His subordinates quickly informed him of the gathered intelligence, after which he had to make a decision.

"Based on our analysis, it's very likely that Zhan Luan intends to take that Devil Clan member on an adventure into the Ancient Sacred Mountain!"

"Adventure?"

Fu Di's eyes flickered as legends related to the Ancient Sacred Mountain quickly crossed his mind, and he pondered why Zhan Luan would want to wander around the Ancient Sacred Mountain with that young member of the Devil Clan.

At first, he thought it was likely that Zhan Luan was training the young demon.

But after a while, he felt this was not quite the case.

"Could it be that the High Priest had previously divined the secrets of the Ancient Sacred Mountain, and she knows what those secrets are! It's quite possible!"

Fu Di knew the prowess of the High Priest; he had been very afraid in the past that the High Priest would divine the business between him and the other Demon Saints like Zhan Luan.

That's why he didn't decide to poison Zhan Luan to death while the High Priest was still alive; he knew that if Zhan Luan really died, the High Priest might use some Secret Technique to divine the past.

If the High Priest divined that it was he who had poisoned Zhan Luan, the consequences would be unimaginable.

He was aware that many Beast-type Demon Clans were dissatisfied with him, seeing his kind, the Golden Eagle, as completely encroaching on their territory.

Fu Di also knew well that the ones he had offended were not just one or two Beast-type Demon Clans, but almost every Beast-type Demon Clan on the Hundred Saints Mountain.
