"Where is this place?" Lan Yuan murmured to himself, looking at the scene before him. The atmosphere here was completely different from other parts of the Ghost Realm. Although it was dilapidated, it exuded an indescribable solemnity.

Lu Lingxi's gaze was fixed on the highest altar in the center of the ruins. The bloodline between her brows was drawing her from there, becoming clearer and stronger!

“It’s here… my parents are right here!” Lu Lingxi’s voice trembled slightly.

They cautiously stepped into the ruins and headed straight for the central altar. The altar was enormous, cast from an unknown black stone, and its surface was covered with intricate and ancient patterns. At the top of the altar was a huge circular recess, which was now emitting a faint light.

Lu Lingxi stood beneath the altar, the feeling of being connected by blood to her was extremely strong, as if her roots were right here.

"Father... Mother..." she called softly, her voice echoing in the desolate ruins.

Just then, the gray light at the top of the altar suddenly flickered violently, and then a phantom slowly emerged from the circular groove.

It was a semi-transparent spirit, tall in stature, clad in tattered ancient armor. Although it was a spirit, its face was exceptionally clear, though its eyes held an indelible pain and confusion. It hovered there quietly, its gaze vacantly sweeping across its surroundings.

"It's...it's the remnant soul of the Ghost Fang clan's ancestor!" Lan Yuan gasped, having seen similar descriptions in the ancient texts of the Sea Demon Clan.

The spirit seemed to sense something, its empty gaze falling on Lu Lingxi Yao. A hint of surprise and complex emotions flashed in its eyes. It opened its mouth and uttered a hoarse and ancient voice: "You...you are a descendant of gods? Why have you come here?"

"Senior!" Lu Lingxi stepped forward and bowed. "My name is Lu Lingxi. I wandered into this place by mistake while searching for my parents. May I ask, senior, do you know the origin of this ruin? Have you seen a couple here who may be trapped here, perhaps related to the seal here?"

Upon hearing this, a flicker of pain flashed in the eyes of the remnant soul of the Ghost Fang clan. He slowly raised his hand, pointing to the circular groove at the top of the altar, his voice low and hoarse, "This place is the 'Eye of the Void'... the place where we, the Ghost Fang clan... are sealed..."

"In the ancient war, our King Canaan, bewitched by evil, desired... desired to seize the divine realm. The three divine lords, Luyao, Yexu, and Xuanying, fought desperately to resist him..."

His voice was filled with sorrow and regret: "We, the Guifang clan, followed our king and committed heinous crimes. In the end, the three divine lords used their own divine power to perish together with our king, sealing us... sealing us, the Guifang clan, here, turning us into... turning us into the Eye of the Void, to be suppressed for eternity."

Lu Lingxi and Nalan Rongzhi were deeply shaken. This corroborated the scattered information they had received earlier, but it was even more devastating.

"What exactly is that Eye of the Void?" Lu Lingxi asked.

A flicker of fear flashed in the eyes of the remnant soul of the Ghost Fang Clan. He looked around, seemingly to confirm if there were any other beings present, then lowered his voice, "The Eye of the Void is not merely a prison for us Ghost Fang Clan members; it seals away an ancient and powerful dark god!"

"A dark evil god?" Lu Lingxi and Nalan Rongzhi's expressions changed drastically.

"Yes, in the ancient war, King Canaan wasn't merely corrupted by the Yin Qi; he... he was seduced and manipulated by the Dark God. King Canaan was just a pawn in his game..." The remnant soul's voice was filled with deep despair. "The three divine beings sacrificed themselves to seal the Dark God and us together in the Eye of the Void. This ghostly realm is the result of the Dark God's aura emanating from the Eye of the Void and our resentment..."

He looked at the groove at the top of the altar: "And this altar is the core of the Eye of the Void, and also the weakest point sealing the evil god..."

"What about my parents? Have you seen them?" Lu Lingxi asked anxiously.

The remnant soul's gaze fell on Lu Lingxi Yao again, with a hint of pity: "Your bloodline... I sensed it, it's the aura of the Moonshadow Clan and the Human Clan. They... they were here... right here..."

He pointed to the groove at the top of the altar: "Many years ago, the seal of the evil god began to loosen. A powerful dark force tried to break free, and then... then a woman from the Moonshadow Clan... she... she offered herself... she offered herself as a sacrifice, performing an ancient sacrificial ritual. She... she didn't offer herself to the evil god, but... she merged her life with the seal of the Eye of the Void, sacrificing herself to strengthen... strengthen the seal..."

“Mother!” Lu Lingxi’s eyes instantly welled up with tears, her heart aching. It turned out that her mother had not sacrificed herself to the God of Darkness, but had used her own life to reinforce the Void Eye that sealed the evil god!

"That woman was powerful and great..." The remnant soul's voice was filled with reverence. "Her power merged with the seal, suppressing the evil god once more. And her partner, a powerful human, he... he didn't leave... he stayed here, protecting her, and protecting this sealing node..."

The remnant soul's gaze shifted to the other side of the altar, where a relatively intact area was shrouded in runes: "They are there, but... their condition is peculiar. The Moonshadow Clan woman's soul has merged with the seal, while the human powerhouse is trapped at the edge of the seal, unable to leave or approach, forced to guard it day and night..."

"Father! Mother!" Lu Lingxi could no longer suppress her emotions, and tears welled up in her eyes.

Nalan Rongzhi hugged her tightly, gently stroking her back, his purple eyes filled with heartache and anger. Lan Yuan also clenched his fists, his eyes filled with worry.

"They...they've come too..." the remnant soul's voice rang out again, tinged with urgency. "They know the Eye of the Void is the seal of the evil god, and they want to break the seal and release the evil god..."

He looked at Lu Lingxi, a complex light flashing in his eyes: "Your bloodline... seems... seems to have a special meaning for this seal. Perhaps... perhaps only you can save them..."

The remnant soul's form began to blur: "My remnant soul's power is about to dissipate, I... I can only... tell you this... Go quickly... stop the evil god... otherwise... otherwise the four realms and nine worlds... will... will be ravaged by death..."

His voice grew weaker and weaker until it finally faded into the air.

Lu Lingxi wiped away her tears, her eyes becoming incredibly determined. She finally knew her parents' whereabouts and the heavy burden they bore.

Nalan Rongzhi said in a deep voice, his sharp gaze sweeping around, "The people from Black Abyss are getting closer and closer."

"Let's go!" Lu Lingxi said. She had to get to her parents as soon as possible to rescue them and stop the Black Abyss from releasing the evil god.

However, just as they were about to take action, a powerful and chilling aura suddenly emanated from the edge of the ruins. Immediately afterwards, several dark figures, carrying a familiar evil aura, appeared at the entrance of the ruins.

Leading the group was the Black Abyss leader, who wore a demon mask. He stared at the altar in the center of the ruins, his eyes gleaming with fanaticism.

"Hehehe... It's like finding a needle in a haystack!" The leader of the demon masks let out a piercing laugh. "The Eye of the Void, the sealed place of the Dark God... Lu Lingxi Yao, you have indeed brought us a surprise. But it's fine, your bloodline and power can be used as sacrifices to break the seal!"
