Suddenly, lines of ancient text appeared on the statue, and along with the wailing of the ancient god, the statue gradually collapsed. As the last piece of debris fell, the ancient god completely disappeared.

Instead, there was a bright light shining from the sky.

"This is..." The little witch looked in surprise as the light condensed into an ancient book.

"This book records the path to Earth." Ye said slowly, with surprise in his eyes, "It also contains powerful magical power."

Leonard said excitedly: "So, we can go back and find and destroy the Blood God projection!"

"Yes, but it will take some time to comprehend these powers." The little witch girl flipped through the book, her tone full of hope.

The three of them smiled at each other, and their goals became clearer and clearer.

At this moment, a void space portal appeared in the center of the temple, shining with mysterious light. "It seems that the road to the earth has been opened." Ye held the sword with a firm look.

"No matter how difficult the road ahead is, we will face it together," Leonard said firmly.

"Let's stay together forever." The little witch held Ye's hand tightly, her eyes full of anticipation.

"Let's go." Ye stepped forward, and the three of them worked together to step into the mysterious space portal. What awaited them would be new challenges and an unknown fate.

The space portal slowly opened in front of the three people, and a dazzling light shone on them. Ye took a deep breath and took the lead to step in. Passing through the thin light curtain, the three found themselves standing on the streets of an unfamiliar city.

There were a few light clouds floating in the sky, tall buildings standing in all directions, and people were bustling about. But what was different from before was that there was a subtle breath in the air - spiritual energy.

"Is this... the Earth?" The little witch looked around with disbelief in her tone.

"Yes, this is Earth, but it seems to have changed a bit." Ye frowned slightly, sensing the spiritual energy around him, "Do you feel it? The air here seems to be filled with some kind of power."

Leonard looked around, his eyes falling on a huge electronic screen in the distance, which showed the time as November 2024, 11. "Several years have passed!"

The little demon girl also saw the date on the display. She said in surprise, "It was 2019 when we left, right? It's been five years."

"What happened in these five years?" Ye asked in a deep voice, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes.

Just as the three were about to leave this strange place, a young man passing by noticed their attire and couldn't help but take a second look. Ye was wearing an ancient robe and holding a simple long sword in his hand; Leonard was holding a shield and his armor was shining; and the little demon girl's attire was also very exotic and eye-catching.

The young man stepped forward and asked curiously: "Where are you from? You are dressed so strangely."

Ye smiled slightly, trying to hide his strangeness. "Oh, we are part of a crew, filming a movie about ancient warriors."

The young man nodded with an expression of sudden enlightenment. "I see. But speaking of it, the world is indeed becoming more and more mysterious, with practitioners and strange things everywhere."

Hearing this, the three looked at each other, as if they had gained some valuable information from the young man. "Can you tell us specifically what happened in this world?" Leonard asked.

The young man nodded and said enthusiastically, "Of course. A few years ago, the spiritual energy on Earth suddenly revived. The cultivation, magic weapons, and even gods and demons that were only seen in novels have become a reality. Many people began to practice, and it is said that some people even reached the realm of ascension! However, many fights have also occurred because of this, and various forces are scrambling for resources."

After hearing what the young man said, the three of them immediately understood. It seemed that returning to Earth this time would not be an easy task. They had to figure out the current situation as soon as possible and find the Blood God projection.

After saying goodbye to the young man, Ye suggested: "We need to find a quiet place to rest and collect more intelligence. Do you have any good suggestions?"

Leonard patted his shield and smiled, "I know a few old friends here who may be able to provide us with some help."

The little demon girl nodded gently, "Good idea. We shouldn't expose ourselves too much now."

After some inquiries, the three found a decent hotel to stay in. The room was well-equipped and clean, which finally made them feel relieved.

As night fell, the city was still brightly lit. Ye sat alone by the window, staring at the street outside, with a lot of thoughts in his mind. "In five years, the world has changed so much. I wonder if our goal is still waiting for us."

At this time, the door was pushed open and the little demon girl walked in. "Ye, how is it, do you have an idea in mind?"

He smiled and said softly: "No matter what, we will not give up. As long as we unite, there is no difficulty that we cannot solve."

Leonard's voice came from outside the door, "Well said! And I have contacted several old friends, and they are willing to provide us with more information about the changes in the situation on this continent."

"Great, I'll go find them tomorrow." Ye stood up, "Go to bed early, everyone is busy tonight."

The three of them smiled at each other, as if all their doubts were forgotten at this moment. Although the future was full of unknowns, their hearts were full of hope and determination.

As the night deepened, the three of them fell asleep and prepared for tomorrow's challenges.

The next morning, the first ray of sunlight penetrated the curtains and poured into the house. Ye woke up early and started a new day. After washing up, he walked to the door and waited for his companions to gather. Not long after, Leonard and the little demon girl walked out of the room one after another, looking energetic, which was gratifying.

"Is everyone ready?" Ye asked with a smile, "We are going to meet Leonard's old friends."

"It's been a long time since I got here!" Leonard patted his chest, looking full of confidence.

"Me too, let's go." The little witch nodded slightly with a smile on her face.

The three of them quickly packed up and stepped out of the hotel. The outside world was as noisy and bustling as ever, with people rushing around, as if everyone was busy with their own affairs. But in their hearts, they were burning with curiosity about the unknown and passion for adventure. Following the direction Leonard pointed out, they finally arrived at the bottom of a luxurious building in the city center. Looking up, the building stood tall and majestic, showing its extraordinary style.

"This is it." Leonard gestured to the two of them, "My old friends should be waiting inside."

As we walked into the lobby, a waiter in a suit and tie immediately came forward and asked, "Excuse me, gentlemen, do you need any help?"

Leonard took out a business card and handed it to him, "I'm Leonard, I made an appointment to visit today, please inform my friends."

The waiter took the business card and smiled, "Please wait a moment, I will arrange it right away."

In less than a few minutes, the elevator door opened and a familiar figure walked out. This person had a resolute face and a kind look in his eyes. "Long time no see, Leonard! And the two people next to you...are they your new teammates? Welcome here."

"Anos!" Leonard walked up to him and shook hands tightly. It was obvious that the two had a very harmonious relationship.

After the introduction, Ye and the little demon girl also got to know Anos. The four of them sat down in the top floor conference room and the conversation began.

"Speaking of which, so many incredible things have happened in these years," Anos said with deep emotion, "Since the spiritual energy began to surge five years ago, the whole world seems to have changed a lot overnight. In particular, the major sects have sprung up like mushrooms after rain, and the disputes between them have never stopped..."

As Anos described the current world situation and the specific situation of various forces, the three listened attentively to the news he shared. "So, if you want to move safely in this land, in addition to having strong strength, you also need to make reliable friends and keep an eye on the latest developments."

Ye said gratefully: "Thank you very much for your information. Next we will start to formulate a detailed plan. I also want to ask about the information about the 'Blood God Projection'..."

"About the Blood God Projection?" Anos frowned and thought for a while. "I did hear that an ancient evil force is ready to make a move. It is said that in recent times, many cultists have been active and cruel. Maybe your target is related to those cults."

"That's great!" The little demon girl's eyes lit up, and she was obviously excited about this clue. "We can start from there and find out the truth step by step."

After the discussion, the three decided to take action immediately. Although the task was difficult, they were not afraid. After all, they had faced countless dangers before, so why would they be afraid now?

"Let's go, let's go see what these cultists are up to!" Ye announced confidently, his sword flickering in the sunlight.

In this way, with the help provided by Anos, they began to move towards the place where the projection of the Blood God might be hidden...

(The following part is omitted)
It was already late at night when the three finally found the entrance to a remote cave. It was silent all around, with only the occasional rustling of grass adding a bit of eerie atmosphere.

"Is this one of their strongholds?" the little witch asked in a low voice.

Leonard nodded, "According to the intelligence, it should be correct."

The three of them approached the entrance cautiously. Suddenly, a dark shadow appeared quietly and blocked their way. "Don't move! This is a sacred place. How can you barge in?"

"Oh? Then who are you?" Ye responded coldly, tightening the hilt of the sword in his hand.

"Hmph, you don't have to worry about it. It would be wise to answer the questions obediently - why are you here?" The man's tone was firm but not without threat.

"We are travelers passing by here. We heard that the scenery here is unique, so we wanted to come and take a look." The little witch interrupted, trying to ease the tense atmosphere.

The shadowy man smiled coldly, "Scenery? There is no good scenery here. But since you are already here, why not let me see your strength. If you can pass this test, I will let you go."

After saying that, the man rushed over, waving the long knife in his hand. The three of them sighed inwardly, realizing that the other party was obviously going to take action.

Ye took a step back, signaled the little witch and Leonard to step back, and stood up. He chanted a spell softly, and a faint glow appeared around him. The long sword in his hand also emitted a faint glow. The shadowy man rushed in front of him and swung his sword. Ye quickly dodged sideways and stabbed the man's vitals with his backhand. But the opponent was very fast and immediately stepped back, narrowly avoiding it.

The battle was about to break out. The two men kept fighting in the narrow space, the sword lights and knife shadows intertwined, making crisp collision sounds. After a few rounds, Ye gradually gained the upper hand. His swordsmanship was like flowing water, and every move was like breaking through the air.

Finally, Ye saw an opportunity, and swung out his long sword, with a sharp sword energy hitting the man's wrist directly. The man screamed in pain, the long sword fell to the ground, his body swayed a few times, and finally fell to the ground powerlessly.

The little demon girl and Leonard quickly stepped forward, ready to subdue him. However, at this moment, bursts of shouting suddenly came from the depths of the cave. Obviously, the other members in the cave had been alarmed.

"We must enter the cave immediately!" Leonard said in a deep voice.

The three of them didn't dare to delay and immediately rushed into the cave. Following the winding tunnel, they soon saw a huge stone hall. A bonfire was burning in the center of the hall, and a dozen cultists sat in a circle, seemingly holding some kind of ceremony.

Seeing Ye and others breaking in, an old man standing in the middle raised his head and looked at them with cold eyes.

“Who is so bold as to disturb our ceremony?” The old man’s voice was eerie and terrifying, making people shudder.

Ye straightened his back and said loudly: "We came here to know the secret of the Blood God's projection!"

The old man was slightly stunned, then laughed and said, "You ignorant youngster, do you think I will easily tell you a secret that even your parents don't know?"

This sentence hit Ye's heart like a bolt from the blue, and he instantly understood something. It turned out that these people not only had information about the Blood God's projection, but also knew information about his parents!

Anger burned in his heart. "No matter what means you use, I will find out the truth! Tell me everything about my parents!"

In a flash, Ye drew out his sword and attacked the old man. The little demon girl and Leonard followed closely and joined the battle. For a moment, the atmosphere in the stone hall suddenly became extremely tense. Seeing this, the cultists immediately drew their weapons, and a fierce battle inevitably broke out...

After a fierce fight, Ye and his three companions finally won. As the last enemy fell, they were able to take a breather. (End of this chapter)
