Duan Gujin advanced tens of kilometers, and along the way, he casually passed through several areas turned into lands of death by Zhan Luan.

Zhan Luan had repeatedly warned him that he must be extremely careful when passing through these lands of death and absolutely must not emit any Demon Clan aura.

As for whether he could emit any Human Clan aura, Zhan Luan told him to try not to.

As a result, he did not make any attempt, he concealed his Life Aura, and cautiously continued forward.

Although this was very time-consuming, it was relatively safer by comparison.

It took Duan Gujin a whole day to travel tens of kilometers.

Fortunately, there were no Demon Beasts or any strange occurrences here, which allowed him to advance tens of kilometers.

"Why is this place different from what Zhan Luan described?" Duan Gujin pondered but couldn't figure out a reason.

He analyzed that Zhan Luan probably hadn't deceived him—if the other party had wanted to deceive him, they could have made their move earlier on the road.

"Could it be that this place, as Zhan Luan said, only harbors malice towards the Demon Clan?"

The deeper Duan Gujin went into the Ancient Sacred Mountain, the more he found that the vegetation has petrified.

He couldn't understand why the deep vegetation of the Ancient Sacred Mountain would petrify; he simply couldn't grasp why such an anomaly would occur here.

By the second day, he saw a castle illusion ahead.

He widened his eyes, trying to see clearly if the castle was truly in front of him.

But the illusion of the castle ahead was always indistinct, and he could not see it clearly.

"Could it be that what I saw before was just a mirage? Otherwise, I would not have traveled tens of kilometers and still not reached the castle."

Originally, he did not plan to continue onwards towards the castle ahead, but then he had a change of thought, feeling that since he was already stuck at a bottleneck stage, and his cultivation could no longer advance, it was time for him to venture out and take risks.

He proceeded with caution, and suddenly, Duan Gujin heard a vague voice coming from the sky.

He carefully discerned the voice, trying to make out something from it.

After a while, he finally heard some indistinct words.

"Ancient Sacred Mountain, Yuhua Hell..."

Upon hearing some of the words, he instantly inhaled sharply.

He discovered that the voice seemed to contain a power that could touch his Divine Soul.

This shocked him greatly, as he was aware of his powerful Telekinesis, and even though his entire Life Aura was concealed, his Telekinesis was still at Peak State.

Unless there was a sudden Divine Soul Attack from a living creature at least at the Martial Emperor Realm or above, it would be possible for his Divine Soul to be severely damaged.

But now, without any Divine Soul Attack, his Divine Soul was already stirred, which was enough to show that there was some mysterious power in that voice.

Duan Gujin extended his Divine Sense outward, wanting to check what was emitting the voice.

But after a long inspection, he still discovered nothing.

Duan Gujin took a deep breath, and after the voice disappeared, he continued onwards.

This time, after moving a distance, he saw the castle ahead again.

Only this time, he saw the mountain range below the castle.

He rubbed his eyes vigorously and finally confirmed he wasn't mistaken.

"I hope it's real this time!"

He followed the mountain trail bit by bit upwards, and after a segment of mountain path, he confirmed that the path he was on led towards the castle.

"Great! I finally see the castle!"

He instantly breathed a sigh of relief and continued towards the castle ahead.

Two hours later, he finally arrived at the base of the castle.

He released his Divine Sense, intending to thoroughly examine what the castle looked like.

But the next moment, he discovered that inside the castle there was a mysterious energy that completely nullified his Divine Sense Inspection.

He took a deep breath, realizing that he could only enter the castle to find out for himself.

First, he took a drop of Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk to ensure he was in Peak State.

Afterward, he took out a Flying Knife from his storage ring to guard against any surprise attacks.

With all preparations done, he started entering the castle.

There was originally a wooden door within the castle, but due to the ravages of time, the door had long since rotted and lost its form. With a gentle push, the door crashed down with a bang.

After falling to the ground, the door shattered completely.

Duan Gujin took a deep breath and stepped forward into the interior of the castle.

Upon entering the castle, he saw numerous skeletons on the ground.

These skeletons crumbled to pieces at the lightest touch.

He instantly understood that everything here, being ancient, had become as fragile as ashes.

Gazing at the grand architecture all around, he exhaled deeply, a thought rapidly flashing through his mind.

"Could it be that everything in this castle will turn to ash?"

He walked into the castle and observed many buildings.

Entering one of these structures, after a short time, he discovered that all things on the building that were not stone had also turned ash-like.

He began to roam around the castle and, moments later, he saw some ghostly apparitions appear in the sky above the castle, accompanied by waves of eerie sounds.

His heart started to pound violently; he recalled what Zhan Luan had mentioned about the strangeness.

"Could it be that the strangeness has appeared?"

Not long ago, Zhan Luan had told him that if these strange apparitions appeared inside, they would launch an attack.

Those apparitions were incredibly strong; even if all the Demon Saints of Hundred Saints Mountain joined forces, they wouldn't be able to gain any advantage.

Duan Gujin certainly did not want to encounter these strange apparitions after entering the castle of the Ancient Sacred Mountain.

Should these strangeness truly appear here, even if he executed the Heavenly Demon Nine Steps, he might not be able to escape smoothly.

Duan Gujin promptly concealed all traces of his Life Aura; he just widened his eyes to observe the apparitions appearing in the sky.

Moments later, he was shocked to see the apparitions in the sky start to fight among themselves.

But then another thought struck him – the strange apparitions in the sky seemed to be fighting each other.

"Why is this happening? Why are those strange apparitions fighting one another up there?"

Full of doubt, he scrutinized the ghostly figures in the sky with wide eyes.

Time ticked by, and an hour later, the apparitions in the sky finally dissipated.

Duan Gujin released his Divine Sense and did not detect any strange auras nearby.

"Could it be that what I saw just now was not the strangeness?"

He took another deep breath and, after confirming that there were no dangers nearby, he continued to wander inside the castle.

"Why is such a strange phenomenon appearing here?"

In his past life, Duan Gujin had also ventured through many places, so now he recalled everything he had seen before.

After a while, a possibility occurred to him.

"There must be an Array here that can record the events that happened in the past!"
