"Are you alright?" Qing Shuang swiftly supported him.
"I'm fine, just a bit exhausted." Mo Han waved his hand, indicating that he was okay. "Let's hurry inside, the door won't hold much longer."
The three of them wasted no time, quickly passing through the Stone Gate and entering the underground palace.
The sight within the underground palace stunned the three.
The once vacant altar was now surrounded by a swarm of black-robed figures, numbering at least a hundred.
They formed a massive circle, appearing to perform some kind of mysterious ritual. At the center of the altar, a large Blood Pool roiled, emitting a nauseating stench of blood. Above the pool floated a fist-sized crimson pearl, glowing with a sinister light— the Blood Soul Pearl!
"What... What is happening here?" Luo Chen was dumbfounded, witnessing such a bizarre scene for the first time.
