Jiang Wen looked at the scene and opened his mouth, wanting to say something. After all, the situation was too strange. They had originally thought that something similar to the Three Bright World Honored One would bring great trouble. They never expected that it would be completely absorbed by the little celestial fox, leaving only a thin skin lying in the idol, complaining about everything it had just experienced.
“Ying~~” The celestial fox narrowed its eyes and licked the corner of its mouth. It seemed very satisfied with its meal. It let out a cute little burp and slowly scurried back into Jiang Wen's arms. After finding a comfortable position to lie down, it made no further movements.
"…" Jiang Wen pursed his lips in silence, remotely collecting the thin skin into his storage bag. He returned to Hongluan's side and shook his head regretfully.

“There was a bit of an accident; that thing is gone.”
“I saw it,” Hongluan said with emotion. “I didn't expect the little thing you often feed to have such great divine power, capable of absorbing that thing completely. When I saw that thing just now, I felt a palpitation, and my sixth sense warned me that it was extremely dangerous. If you weren't here, I'm afraid I would have turned around and run away.”
“I also find it strange,” Jiang Wen agreed with Hongluan. Although his divine sense didn't give him any danger warnings, that thing was, after all, a replica of the Four Great Celestial Venerables of the Orthodox God Path, just like the Three Pure Ones Ancestral Masters of Taoism, supreme beings. If one day the Three Pure Ones Ancestral Masters were to manifest within the idols of the Three Pure Ones Dao Ancestors, Jiang Wen would probably hesitate to make a judgment as well.
“Now that the matter in this blood sea is settled, let's continue onward. I have a feeling that there are even greater surprises waiting for us beneath this Buzhou Mountain. You can keep the Blood Demon Ancestor's belongings; I only need to look at the cultivation methods he practiced.”
Hongluan was overjoyed at this stroke of good fortune. Although she didn't know if the Blood Demon Ancestor had already entered the Dao Palace realm, he was close to it. There were also many top-grade items in the storage bag, which she had rarely seen even on her master.
Now that she had unexpectedly obtained it, it was a great opportunity. She wouldn't have to work hard to earn resources by accepting various tasks in the sect.
“Thank you, Big Brother Jiang!” Her joy overflowed, and Hongluan kept calling him Big Brother Jiang. She quickly checked the contents of the storage bag and threw several carefully compiled cultivation methods to Jiang Wen.
Agulai, who was standing nearby, was puzzled. He scratched his hairless head and asked Hongluan in confusion, “Why are you so happy?”
“Isn't it because I've made a fortune?” Hongluan said with a smile. “Things that were difficult to find in the past have unexpectedly appeared in abundance today. When I go back to cultivate in seclusion, reaching the Dao Palace realm will be just around the corner.”
Agulai still didn't understand, but he didn't ask further. After all, since everyone was happy, he could be happy too. Although he didn't get anything, he received spiritual comfort, which Agulai was very satisfied with.
Taking the cultivation methods, Jiang Wen roughly examined them. The first one was called 《Summoning God Art》, which was clearly a Taoist mystical art. The second one was 《Three Lifetimes Blood Delusion Scripture》, which should be the Orthodox God Path cultivation method that the Blood Demon Ancestor mainly practiced. The other ones were 《Sacrificial Nerve Scripture》, 《Blood Sea Secret Art》, 《Soul-Snatching and Spirit-Seizing Method》, and a thin booklet.
Jiang Wen roughly looked through the books. He had the same copy of 《Sacrificial Nerve Scripture》. Now that he had obtained 《Sacrificial Nerve Scripture》 from the Blood Demon Ancestor, it meant that the God-Worshipping Society must be inextricably linked to the Orthodox God Path.
The old woman he encountered in the mountain village was probably also related to the Orthodox God Path. After all, this blood sea was exactly the same as that blood pool, both being extremely sinister things.
Finally, his gaze settled on the thin booklet, and the words on it really attracted him.
“Orthodox God Path?”
The booklet's title was the name of the Orthodox God Path. This nameless cultivation method or secret art was actually called Orthodox God Path, which indeed aroused Jiang Wen's interest.
Just as he was about to open it and take a look, he felt a slight tremor under his feet. He put away the booklet and looked at the two people beside him: “Let's go down and take a look.”
“Okay,” the two said in unison.
Jiang Wen's divine sense swept across the entire blood sea area and discovered an exit in a deep pool.
Arriving at the deep pool, Jiang Wen looked at the strange pool water. He threw out the Tai Xuan Mirror to explore the way first. After realizing that there was no danger, he jumped in.
The pool water was cold, and the biting power constantly surged towards Jiang Wen's body. However, it was isolated by Jiang Wen's mana and had no effect on him.
The deep pool was winding and deep. After swimming for half an hour, they saw the exit.
It was an exit hanging from the top of the cave. The deep pool connected the upper and lower parts, and it did not fall down because it was suspended above. Instead, it was firmly stuck to the top of the cave, showing no sign of falling.
Jumping out of the pool, Jiang Wen overlooked the new world in front of him. This place was different from the blood sea. There was no scarlet bloody smell, no countless bones. There was only a pink color like flesh. However, compared to the blood sea, he felt that this place was even more disgusting.
In the vast cave, countless fleshy tumors grew everywhere. The entire ground was like a piece of living flesh, with not only blue-black blood vessels but also countless trees resembling cauliflower. Thick slurry constantly gushed out of these trees, emitting a strong stench. From time to time, gravel fell, and before it approached the ground, a pair of vertical pupils opened, and then countless tentacles stretched out. The earth, like living flesh, cracked open a mouth and swallowed the falling rocks.
Jiang Wen frowned and dispelled these smells. He looked at this place, feeling extremely uncomfortable. He had never thought that there would be such a strange place in the world. This world was as if covered by cysts and fleshy tumors.
What exactly is this place? Could it be that it was created by the Orthodox God Path, just like the blood sea?
Standing quietly in the sky, he reached out and summoned the flying sword to catch the two who were falling. After Hongluan and Agulai calmed down, they exclaimed when they looked at this place.
“What the hell is this place?” Hongluan asked in disgust.
“I don’t know either,” Jiang Wen shook his head. He still wanted to ask Hongluan what was going on. It seemed that this girl didn’t know much either, and it would be a waste of time to ask.
“I have never seen such a disgusting place. It is more eye-opening than the blood sea. This smell cannot be dispelled no matter how you try to dispel it. It is really disgusting,” Hongluan said, covering her mouth in disgust.
Agulai nodded in agreement. Although no expression could be seen on his face, the light shining in his eyes was enough to show his mood at this time.
Hearing this, Jiang Wen took out two talismans and threw them to them. These were cleansing and mind-purifying talismans that he had drawn on the way, and they should have some effect.
As he expected, after Hongluan attached the talisman to her body, she no longer felt the stench. She looked at Jiang Wen happily, praising his talisman skills.
“Big Brother Jiang's Taoist skills are truly omnipotent.”
“Study hard, and you can be like me,” Jiang Wen said with a smile.
As they were talking, they heard a roar coming from afar. A violent gust of wind blew past, causing the hems of their clothes to sway from side to side.
Looking in the direction of the sound, they saw a huge mouth comparable to a lake opening in the distance, inhaling the yellow mist emanating from the rocks.
“It is absorbing the earth veins of Buzhou Mountain!” Hongluan seemed to have thought of something, and the expression on her face suddenly changed drastically.
