On the other side, deep beneath the Blood Demon Hall ruins...
Crimson blood-light streaked like an arrow, carving a bloody arc through the underground space.
After only a few dozen breaths, the outline of a majestic demon palace crashed into view.
The red glow around Blood Sea immediately receded, and his figure vanished into the shadows.
He held his breath, concentrating, and his Divine Sense, like a spiderweb, silently covered the demon palace.
At this moment, in a large open space outside the demon palace, hundreds of Yao-Mo Clan members were huffing and puffing as they carried metal cargo crates, the metal scraping creating a harsh sound.
Behind them, dozens of crystal cages reflected a cold, eerie light, each imprisoning Martial Artists brimming with Qi and blood.
Although they wore clean hemp robes, their eyes held an unbreakable confusion.
They weren't like the utterly numb two-legged sheep in the Yao-Mo Clan's pens; their eyes weren't numb, but rather filled with a sense of uncertainty facing an unknown fate.
Blood Sea possessed some of Blood Ancestor's lingering memories and knew that these were slaves cultivated by the Yao-Mo Clan to be offered to the world on the other side of the Demon Abyss.
Having shared consciousness with Xiao Zhuo, he had already learned that the Yao-Mo Clan had not been annihilated, so he wasn't surprised by this at all.
After all, many strong individuals among the Yao-Mo Clan knew the location of the original Demon Abyss Passage in Barren State, and also knew that the Three Demon Ancestors of the Yao-Mo Clan would send some population and supplies into the Demon Abyss Passage periodically, and the passage in Barren State was located within this demon palace.
Compared to the Demon Abyss Passage that Xiao Zhuo had previously banished, the Devilish Qi emanating from this passage was undoubtedly much weaker.
As crates of goods and crystal cages carrying Human Race slaves were transported into the demon palace by the Yao-Mo Clan members, a three-foot wooden box, black-patterned with gilded edges, was enveloped in a black light and sent out from the Demon Abyss Passage. This scene was observed by Blood Sea, who had long been secretly probing the demon palace with his Divine Sense.
This was the reward from the other side of the Demon Abyss.
Blood Sea also knew what was inside; it should be either demon core that could greatly increase Devilish Qi Cultivate, or some Origin pills that were useful even for Ancestor-level experts.
The reason why the Three Demon Ancestors of the Yao-Mo Clan were willing to become herding dogs was, on one hand, their fear of the powerful existences on the other side of the passage, and on the other hand, for the resources of the Upper Realm.
These were extremely rare treasures in this Lower Realm.
His Divine Sense had already detected that only one Dominator was stationed here, with the rest being mere fodder Yao-Mo Clan members, the strongest not exceeding Calamity-Grade.
Blood Sea no longer concealed himself. With a light step, his entire being appeared at the entrance of the demon palace.
With a thought, hundreds of Thorn of Nothingness condensed out of thin air. The hundreds of Yao-Mo Clan members inside and outside the demon palace, including a Nascent Soul Realm Wolf Demon Dominator, didn't even have time to grunt before their Divine Souls shattered, dying utterly.
With a wave of Blood Sea's hand, the black-gold wooden box was effortlessly drawn into his grasp.
With a slight lift of his single hand, a storage ring from the Wolf Demon Dominator, who had long since Cultivated into human form, flew into Blood Sea's hand.
He effortlessly broke through the ring's Restriction, and the black-gold wooden box was immediately stored in his storage ring.
Without the slightest hesitation, Blood Sea's figure moved, and he stepped into the Demon Abyss Passage.
A powerful sensation of spatial distortion came, but it was completely ineffective against this Innate Blood God Body.
On the other side of the Demon Abyss Passage, faint Devilish Qi surged into the Yuan Realm through the passage, but Blood Sea was now traveling along the passage towards the source of the Devilish Qi.
After an unknown amount of time spent traversing the passage, a spatial Cave entrance appeared in Blood Sea's pupils.
A moment later, Xiao Zhuo in the Yuan Realm sensed that his Split Soul, Blood Sea, had disappeared from this world.
"Has he entered the Demon Abyss Passage?" Xiao Zhuo, who had just finished planning with Shao You, murmured to himself.
However, although the connection disappeared, the Split Soul panel still existed within the panel.
Xiao Zhuo had already confirmed this with his customer service panel spirit no. 1; even world barriers could not block the All-Heaven panel System.
With a thought, Blood Sea's sub-panel appeared in his vision.

"The sub-panel binder has entered a Middle Thousand Worlds, and the corresponding panel has been adjusted according to the current world situation."
Xiao Zhuo looked at the changes in the sub-panel with confusion. Originally, Blood Sea was also in the Mana Realm, but upon reaching the other side of the Demon Abyss, he became a Nascent Soul Realm. This was easy to understand; it should be the corresponding Cultivation Realm name of the world on the other side.
However, not only did the Divine Sense Rank become high-grade profound rank, but its range also drastically shrank, and the Divine Thought damage bonus decreased by ninety-nine percent.
The Domain could not be used, and the Law of Blood directly disappeared.
The over three thousand Attribute Points originally allocated to the sub-panel also became over three thousand points.
"host, once the panel holder enters a new world, the panel will make adjustments based on the specific conditions of the new world. The world where the sub-panel is located is a Middle Thousand Worlds. The Law of the Middle Thousand Worlds is powerful, and space is solid, far incomparable to a Minor Thousand Worlds. All extraordinary powers will also suffer greater suppression, and the power exerted will be far less than when in a Minor Thousand Worlds."
"The current Realm of the sub-panel holder in a Middle Thousand Worlds cannot yet support his use of Domain-type abilities, hence it cannot be used. And the Law he comprehended is a Minor Thousand Worlds Law, which is in an inactive state in a Middle Thousand Worlds, thus not calculated."
No. 1's electronic voice sounded at the opportune moment, instantly resolving all of Xiao Zhuo's doubts.
However, Xiao Zhuo could now only check whether his Split Soul was safe through the sub-panel's status bar, but he could not know what it was experiencing through the connection between their soul infant.
Clearly, the True Explanation of Soul Refining was still far from allowing Xiao Zhuo to communicate with his Split Soul across worlds.
However, Xiao Zhuo had already anticipated this point; originally, sending Blood Sea to the other side of the Demon Abyss first was to have the Split Soul scout ahead, and if it could gain a foothold, it would then try to send back a message.
At that time, the Main Body would then consider whether to go to the world on the other side of the Demon Abyss.
Since it was confirmed that Blood Sea had entered the so-called Middle Thousand Worlds, Xiao Zhuo no longer dwelled on it, but instead took Shao You to Green State, preparing to implement his plan.
On the other side, Blood Sea passed through a long passage and appeared on a huge jade platform surrounded by a canopy of Devilish Qi.
There were also many goods and Human Race members confined in crystal cages around.
Blood Sea immediately felt that he seemed to be suppressed by something; even his perception of the Law of Blood disappeared.
Checking the panel also revealed a huge change in his panel, and he also received an explanation from No. 1.
All of this was completed within a few breaths, and Blood Sea had already accepted the changes, as he had been mentally prepared.
Looking around, many Human Race members, emitting Devilish Qi, were moving the surrounding goods, and others were opening crystal cages one by one, driving out the Human Race slaves within.
As soon as Blood Sea clearly saw the situation in the arena, a strong gust of wind already blasted towards him.
