At this moment, Qin Chen and his companions finally arrived outside the Dark Ancestor Land.
As they looked around, the Dark Ancestor Land appeared as a pitch-black expanse, filled with an endless aura of darkness, suffused with a chilling power.
Though it wasn't a forbidden area, any Dark Clan member could enter, the dangers within were numerous, and without considerable skill, ordinary Dark Clan members wouldn't dare to venture deep inside.
Only some self-proclaimed extraordinary geniuses of the Dark Clan, armed with secret information and knowledge of safe paths, would brave entering.
"My lord, we have arrived," Fei E said respectfully outside the Dark Ancestor Land.
Inside the carriage, Qin Chen stretched lazily.
So comfortable!
Throughout the journey, Qin Chen had optimized his dark primordial power and rested well on the bed inside the carriage, feeling refreshed.
This made the Divine Phoenix Fairy beside him seethe with anger.
That bed was originally hers!
Swish!
Qin Chen stepped forward to gaze at the distant Dark Ancestor Land.
The darkness of the Dark Ancestor Land was profound, and upon closer inspection, he couldn't help but shudder slightly.
Tombstones were densely packed everywhere!
Looking from near to far, the entire Dark Ancestor Land was filled with tombs, stretching endlessly in sight, with no end in sight!
"My lord, these tombs are the burial grounds of the fallen clansmen from the Dark Clan who invaded this universe back in the day," Fei E said respectfully, his eyes filled with reverence and fervor.
In the eyes of the countless clans in this universe, all Dark Clan members were enemies who invaded their homeland, guilty of unforgivable sins.
However, for the Dark Clan, those who had fallen here were their heroes.
"In order to invade this universe, our clan's experts led an army to slaughter numerous resistant races in collaboration with the Demon Tribe of this universe, not expecting that there were quite a number of powerful beings here, including some exceptional half-step transcendents."
"This led to significant losses for our Dark Clan, and although the ones buried here are mostly ordinary soldiers, they are still heroes of our Dark Clan."
Fei E had a respectful expression.
"Executioners."
Qin Chen's gaze turned cold as he looked at the tombs before him; in his view, those Dark Clan members who died here were all executioners.
There was nothing to respect.
Qin Chen raised his hand, staring into the distance.
The dark primordial power contained within the Dark Ancestor Land was extremely terrifying, subtly merging with the heavenly dao of the Black Jade Continent; no wonder it was called the core area of the Dark Clan.
Buzz!
A wisp of Qin Chen's power instantly entered the Dark Ancestor Land.
A profound aura spread out at once.
"Lord of Abyssal Demons, do you sense it?"
Qin Chen communicated through sound.
"Master, I do," the Lord of Abyssal Demons replied excitedly: "It’s the aura of the Demonic Soul Source Artifact; our Abyss Demon Tribe’s sacred artifact, the Demonic Soul Source Artifact, is within this Dark Ancestor Land. However, its power seems to be obscured by a certain aura, making it very weak. One must get close to detect its exact location, but there's no question that the Demonic Soul Source Artifact is indeed in this Dark Ancestor Land."
"Good!"
Excitement surged in Qin Chen's heart.
His purpose in coming to the Abyss Demon Tribe's Eternal Dark Demon Realm and entering the Eternal Abyss of Demons was to find the Demonic Soul Source Artifact, and now he was finally nearing his destination.
"Is Shangguan Wan'er here?"
Qin Chen wondered softly.
After being transformed by the Yuanmo Ancestor, Shangguan Wan'er had already become a part of the Dark Clan, but her body needed continual transformation by the Demonic Soul Source Artifact, making her highly likely to be here.
"Let's go!"
Qin Chen said, wanting to make haste.
The Divine Phoenix Fairy pretended to be surprised, "Where to?"
Qin Chen frowned and looked over, suddenly laughing, "Are you trying to back out? Didn’t we agree that you would use the Dark Sacred Fruit in exchange for the chance to enter the depths of the Dark Ancestor Land? You wouldn't have forgotten, would you?"
