Chapter 574

Two days passed in a flash. Today was the day to enter the Ancestor's Land.

Gu Chen, dressed in a white robe, put the white ape into the Beast Raising Bag, and arrived at the Great Elder's residence early in the morning.

Not long after, Gu Ziyan and Gu Shenming also arrived. The three of them nodded tacitly, which was considered a greeting.

Two days ago, the three of them had already discussed the specific matters of cooperation after entering the Ancestor's Land. Now, they had changed from competitors to companions who could help each other.

Not long after the three of them gathered, Great Elder Gu Yao pushed open the door and walked out of his residence. The three of them immediately saluted him.

"No need to be so polite. Since everyone is here, let's go to the Gazing Ancient Altar."

He said with a smile, leading the way in front of them. They went all the way to the depths of the Ancient Town of Great Desolation.

This place was an important place of the Gu Clan. After passing through the dense ancient forest, an ancient altar appeared on the open land in front of them.

This Gazing Ancient Altar was made of yellow mud, and a large formation was engraved on the altar. Around it, eighteen ancient totem pillars were arranged in order of position.

When they arrived, there were already three Elders present. According to the rules, every time the Ancestor's Land opened, at least four Elders must be present.

Among the three Elders, only one female Elder Gu Chen was familiar with. When he first came back, she had asked him if he needed anything. She could be considered friendly to him.

If he remembered correctly, her name should be Gu Qingxia.

When everyone was gathered, the Great Elder and the three Elders stood together at the four corners of the altar, each forming a seal and displaying an ancient technique.

Under their display, the altar gradually changed, and the formation patterns on the altar lit up one after another.

The totems on the surrounding eighteen pillars were also glowing. The strange beasts engraved on them seemed to be alive, emitting an ancient and desolate aura.

Gu Chen used his heart to sense and found that the space here had suddenly become abnormally active. The altar even seemed to be turning into nothingness.

Rumble!

At a certain moment, a flickering door of light appeared on the altar, connecting to an unknown time and space.

When the four Elders finished casting their techniques, Great Elder Gu Yao's face was relieved. He looked at Gu Chen and the other two.

"The entrance to the ancestral land has been opened. Just like before, you can stay inside for 94 days. After 94 days, we will open it again and take you out."

"Remember, when you enter the ancestral land, you must strictly follow the route left by the ancestors. Don't be tempted by other sceneries on the way, or your life will be in danger."

"You must strictly follow the forty-nine days limit and arrange the time reasonably. When the door opens again, you must come out. Otherwise, you will be punished by the clan rules. "

While the Great Elder was explaining the things to pay attention to, Elder Gu Qingxia handed the three jade slips to Gu Chen and the other two.

Gu Chen used his Divine Sense to explore the jade slip. Sure enough, there was a map recorded inside. There was only one route on the map. As for the other areas, they were all vague and only marked as unknown areas.

This route was winding, and all the important landmarks along the way had been recorded in great detail. It was unknown how much effort the ancestors of the Gu Clan had expended to perfect this route.

Gu Chen noticed that the starting point of the secret territory and the end point of the ancestral land were far from a straight line. Instead, they turned left and right to avoid a bunch of unknown areas.

This showed that even the incomparably powerful ancestors of the Gu Clan were full of fear towards those unknown areas and only dared to take a detour.

The location of the Tyrannical Martial Origin Jade was in the deepest part of the ancestral land. Gu Chen focused on the nearby geographical situation.

"Okay, you can go in. I wish you good luck."

After the Great Elder finished speaking with a smile, the three of them took a deep breath and excitedly stepped onto the altar. One by one, they walked into the light door!

"I wonder how much good fortune these three children will have in the ancestral land this year?"

After the three of them disappeared into the door, Elder Gu Qingxia said with a smile.

"The younger generation has their own good fortune. I hope they can obtain the approval of the ancestral land. The Immortal Ascension Grand Ceremony is not far away. If they have amazing good fortune in the ancestral land, they may have the opportunity to participate. "

Gu Yao's eyes revealed a look of expectation.

… …

When they passed through the light door, they felt as if they were traveling through time. The airflow outside was extremely unstable, and the space cracks were densely packed. Gu Chen and the other two were shocked.

Fortunately, they reached the end without any mishaps. When they stepped on the ground, they landed in a pitch-black forest.

It was night time, and the sky was filled with stars. For some reason, the stars in the sky seemed to be more resplendent than usual.

The three of them looked around and extended their divine senses in all directions.

In their senses, this was an ancient and dilapidated land. A desolate aura assaulted their senses.

"Squeak squeak!"

The white ape slipped out of the beast bag and climbed onto Gu Chen's shoulder. It looked around excitedly.

After hearing that there were immortal elixirs to eat these two days, it had long been looking forward to entering the Gu Clan's ancestral land.

"The starting point is correct. This is the Whispering Forest. If we start from the southeast, we will reach the ancestral land in about five days."

"And the location of the immortal elixir that we are looking for is on this road. It will take us about half a day to get there."

Gu Ziyan and Gu Shenming took out the map to confirm the route and analyzed it carefully. However, for some reason, Gu Chen closed his eyes.

"The gravity here is a little strange. It seems that the gravity has weakened …"

Gu Chen murmured to himself. Recently, he had been practicing the Secret Skill of Heaven Gravitation, so he was especially sensitive to gravity.

As soon as he arrived, he felt that the gravity here was much weaker than in the Primordial Continent.

For someone who practiced the Secret Skill of Heaven Gravitation, this feeling was too obvious. Here, the force field changes that he had already figured out were no longer applicable.

"It's fine if the gravity has weakened, but the power of the Celestial Phenomenon above my head has actually increased …"

Gu Chen raised his head. Even with his eyes closed, he could feel that the connection with the stars in the sky had inexplicably become stronger.

This was the first time he had seen such a strange situation, so he was very confused.

"Cousin Gu Chen, what's wrong?"

Gu Ziyan and Gu Shenming were analyzing the next route. Seeing that Gu Chen was in a daze, they could not help but ask with concern.

Only then did Gu Chen return to his senses and shake his head. "It's nothing. I just feel that this place is a little strange."

"It is said that this mystic realm has been passed down since ancient times. It is normal for there to be some abnormalities. Let's discuss the important matters first," Gu Shenming said. He did not notice what Gu Chen felt.

Gu Chen nodded and suppressed the doubts in his heart. He then discussed the next route with the other three.

Because the suspected location of the immortal elixir was between the starting point and the Ancestor's Land, they decided to search for the elixir first before heading to the Ancestor's Land.

They could stay in the mystic realm for a total of 94 days, and the round trip to the starting point would take at most 65 days. Therefore, they had more than enough time.

The three of them decided on the next route and quickly moved forward in the Forest of Whispers according to the map.

The area of the forest was vast. Even the ancestors of the Gu clan had not fully understood the situation here. Most of the areas were marked as unknown and forbidden.
