Chapter 574

Two days passed in a flash, and today is the day to enter the ancestral land.

Gu Chen was dressed in a white robe, put the white ape into the animal bag, and came to the residence of the great elder early in the morning.

After a while, Gu Ziyan and Gu Shenming also came, and the three nodded tacitly as a greeting.

Two days ago, the three of them had discussed the specific matters of cooperation after entering the ancestral land, so now they have changed from competitors to partners who help each other.

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

"No need to be too polite, since everyone is here, let's go to the Wanggu Altar."

He smiled and led the way ahead, and everyone went all the way to the depths of the ancient town of Dahuang.

This place is already an important place for the Gu clan. Passing through the dense ancient forest, an ancient altar appeared on the open ground in front of it.

This Wanggu altar is made of yellow mud, and a large formation is depicted on the altar, and eighteen ancient totem stone pillars are scattered in sequence according to their directions.

When everyone arrived, there were already three elders present. According to the rules, every time the ancestral land is opened, at least four elders must be present.

Among the three elders, there was only one female elder, Gu Chen, who was familiar with her. When she first came back, she asked me what I needed, and she was kind to me.

If I remember correctly, her name should be Gu Qingxia.

Everyone gathered together, the Great Elder and the three elders stood around the altar, forming seals and performing ancient methods.

The altar gradually changed under their spells, and the magic circle patterns on the altar lit up one after another.

The totems on the eighteen stone pillars around were also glowing, and the strange beasts depicted on them seemed to be alive, exuding an ancient and desolate atmosphere.

Gu Chen sensed it with his heart, and found that the space here suddenly became extremely active, and the altar looked like it was going to disappear.

Boom!

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

After the spell casting by the four elders was over, the great elder Gu Yao breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Gu Chen and spoke humanely.

"The entrance to the ancestral land has been opened. As usual, you can stay in it for forty-nine days. After forty-nine days, we will open it again and take you out."

"You have to remember that when you enter the ancestral land, you must strictly follow the road map left by your ancestors. Don't be fooled by other scenery on the road, otherwise your life will be in danger."

"We must strictly follow the forty-nine-day rule, and arrange the time to go back and forth reasonably. You must come out when the door is opened again, otherwise you will be severely punished by the clan rules."

The first elder explained the precautions, and the elder Gu Qingxia handed the three jade slips to Gu Chen and the others respectively.

Gu Chen's spiritual sense probed into the jade slip, and there was indeed a map recorded in it. There was only one route on the map. As for other areas, they were all vague, and only unknown areas were marked.

The route itself is winding and tortuous, and all the important landmarks on the road have been written down in great detail. I don't know how much effort the ancestors of the Gu clan spent to perfect this route.

Gu Chen noticed that the starting point of the secret realm and the ending point of the ancestral land were far from being a straight line, but turned eastward and westward to avoid a bunch of unknown areas.

This shows that even the extremely powerful ancestors of the Gu clan are full of fear of those unknown areas and only dare to take detours.

The Bawu Yuanyu is located in the deepest part of the ancestral land, and Gu Chen focused on the geographical conditions nearby.

"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, stepped on the altar happily, and walked into the light gate one by one!

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

All three of them disappeared through the door, Elder Gu Qingxia said with a smile.

"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. I hope they can gain the recognition of the ancestral land. The day of Ascension to Immortals is not far away. If they have amazing fortunes in the ancestral land, they may have the opportunity to participate in it."

Gu Yao's eyes showed anticipation.

...

When passing through the gate of light, it feels like traveling through time and space, but the surrounding air flow is extremely unstable, and the space is densely covered with cracks, which makes the three of Gu Chen shocking.

Fortunately, they reached the finish line without any risk, stepped on their feet, and landed in a dark forest.

It was night at this time, and the sky was full of stars. For some reason, the stars in the sky above seemed to be extraordinarily brighter than usual.

The three of them looked around, and their spiritual consciousness extended in all directions.

In the induction, this is an ancient and dilapidated land, and a desolate breath blows towards the face.

"Squeak!"

The white ape slipped out of the animal bag by itself, climbed onto Gu Chen's shoulder, and looked around excitedly.

In the past two days, I heard that there is an elixir to eat, and it has long been looking forward to entering the ancestral land of the Gu clan.

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

"And the location of the elixir we are looking for is on this road, and it will take about half a day's journey."

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

"The gravity here is a bit weird. It seems that the gravity has become weaker..."

Gu Chen murmured in his heart that he has been practicing the secret art of causing earthquakes recently, so he is particularly sensitive to gravity.

As soon as he came to this place, he felt that the gravity here was much weaker than that of the Fairy Continent.

This is too obvious for a person who practiced the secret technique of causing shock from the sky. Here, the force field changes that he had figured out before are no longer applicable.

"It's okay if the gravity becomes weaker, but the power of the celestial phenomenon above the 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 became inexplicably stronger.

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

"Cousin Gu Chen, what's wrong with you?"

Gu Ziyan and the two were analyzing the next way forward, seeing Gu Chen in a daze, they couldn't help asking with concern.

Gu Chen came back to his senses and shook his head. "It's okay, I just feel a little strange here."

"It is said that the secret realm here has been passed down from ancient times to the present, and some abnormalities can't be more normal. It's important to discuss the business." Gu Shenming said, he didn't notice what Gu Chen felt.

Gu Chen nodded, suppressed the doubts in his heart, and discussed the way forward with the three of them.

Because the location of the suspected elixir is between the starting point and the ancestral land, they decided to search for the elixir first, and then go to the ancestral land.

They can stay in the secret realm for a full forty-nine days, and the journey to and from the starting point is at most ten days, so their time can be said to be more than enough.

The three of them decided on a route, and quickly followed the map's guidance to advance in the Whispering Forest.

This forest covers a vast area, but the ancestors of the Gu clan have not fully figured out the situation here, and a large part of the area is marked unknown and forbidden to enter.

The three of them followed the route on the map, not wanting to make more twists and turns.
