"It's me. I'm still alive." Mo Han walked closer step by step. His body was covered with scars and his clothes were tattered, but his eyes were still bright and flashed with determination.

Luo Chen rushed forward and hugged Mo Han, so excited that he was speechless.

"That's great, you're still alive, that's great!" Luo Chen's voice was choked, and he couldn't help but cry.

"I'm fine. I'm fine, right?" Mo Han patted Luo Chen on the back and consoled him. "However, how did you get yourself into such a mess?"

"Don't mention it. It's all for your revenge." Luo Chen let go of Mo Han and wiped his tears. "By the way, where's your uncle? How is he?"

Mo Han's eyes dimmed when he heard this. He lowered his head and said in a low voice: "Uncle...he sacrificed himself to save me."

Luo Chen was silent. He didn't know how to comfort Mo Han, so he could only pat his shoulder silently.

"By the way, why are you here?" Mo Han asked, "Aren't you at the alliance headquarters?"

"When we learned that you and your uncle had died, we were deeply saddened and vowed to avenge you." Luo Chen said, "We have formulated a plan to defeat the Blood Vampire Sect's outposts one by one, weaken their strength, and finally concentrate our forces to attack their lair."

"I see." Mo Han nodded, "So how are you guys doing?"

"It's going pretty smoothly. We have captured several strongholds." Luo Chen said, "However, the Blood Ghost Sect is more powerful than we thought. We must be more careful."

"I have a way to completely destroy the Blood Demon Sect." Mo Han suddenly said, with hatred flashing in his eyes.

"What method?" Luo Chen and Qing Shuang asked in unison.

"I need your help." Mo Han said, "We must find the crystal ball, and then..."

Mo Han told Luo Chen and Qing Shuang everything about his experience in the forbidden area of ​​the Blood Demon Sect and the secret of the crystal ball.

"You mean, that crystal ball has the power to destroy the world and completely wipe out the Blood Vampire Sect?" Luo Chen was shocked after hearing this.

"That's right." Mo Han nodded, "But I detonated the crystal ball to kill myself and the elders of the Blood Vampire Sect. But I accidentally came to the Tianyuan Empire and learned the spell to activate the crystal ball. Now we have to find a way to return to the explosion site. Maybe the crystal ball is still there."

"This is incredible!" Qingshuang said, "However, since this is possible, we must give it a try!"

"But how can we find the crystal ball?" Luo Chen asked, "And even if we find it, how can we use it?"

"I don't know either." Mo Han shook his head, "But I believe that as long as we work together, we will be able to find a way."

"Okay, then let's work together!" Luo Chen said, "For Mo Han's uncle and for those innocent people, we must completely wipe out the Blood Demon Sect!"

"Yes!" Mo Han and Qing Shuang nodded heavily, and the eyes of the three were full of determination and hope.

The three decided to set off immediately and head to the Blood Ghost Clan's lair that Mo Han mentioned.

"Wait, there's one more thing." Mo Han suddenly remembered something, "I found some clues about the ultimate secret of the Blood Ghost Sect in the Tianyuan Empire Palace. Maybe they can be useful to us."

"What clues?" Luo Chen asked.

"A note that said 'The ultimate secret of the Blood Vampire Sect is hidden in the palace of the Tianyuan Empire.'" Mo Han said, "Also, I found an insider, but he was poisoned to death with a strange poison."

"The Imperial Palace of the Tianyuan Empire?" Luo Chen and Qing Shuang looked at each other in surprise. "What on earth is going on? How could the ultimate secret of the Blood Ghost Sect be related to the Imperial Palace of the Tianyuan Empire?"

"I don't know either." Mo Han shook his head, "But I think this matter is not simple. We must investigate it thoroughly."

"But our most important thing right now is to eliminate the Blood Ghost Sect. How can we have the time to investigate this matter?" Luo Chen said.

"We can split up into two groups," Qingshuang said. "Luo Chen, you and Mo Han go look for the crystal ball together, and I'll go to the Tianyuan Empire's palace to investigate this matter. We can keep in touch and exchange information at any time."

"That's fine." Luo Chen nodded, "Then let's do this. Qingshuang, you must be careful. The palace of the Tianyuan Empire is not a good place."

"Don't worry, I will protect myself." Qingshuang smiled slightly, "You should also be more careful, the Blood Ghost Sect's lair must be full of dangers."

"Yeah." Mo Han and Luo Chen nodded.

The night is as dark as ink and the wilderness is silent.

Luo Chen watched Qingshuang's resolute figure disappear on the path leading to the Tianyuan Empire, and a trace of worry arose in his heart.

He knew Qingshuang's strength, and was also aware of her calmness and wisdom, but the Tianyuan Empire Palace was not a good place just by the name.

"Don't worry, Qingshuang will be fine." Mo Han's voice sounded in his ears, with a hint of fatigue, but also firmness.

Luo Chen turned his head to look at Mo Han. The wounds on his body had not yet healed completely and his face looked a little pale, but the fire of revenge in his eyes burned even more vigorously.

"I hope so." Luo Chen sighed softly, then collected his thoughts and cast his gaze in the direction of the Blood Vampire Sect's lair, "Let's set off as well. We can't let Qing Shuang fight alone."

Mo Han nodded, and the two of them did not delay any longer. After identifying the direction, they rushed towards the valley where the Blood Ghost Clan's lair was located in their memory.

The night wind howled, blowing the two people's robes, and also blowing away some of the sadness and heaviness.

The belief in revenge is like the brightest star in the night sky, guiding them in the direction of progress.

"Mo Han, do you still remember the exact location of that cave?" Luo Chen asked while running. Although he also participated in the previous battle, his memory of the specific location was not as clear as Mo Han's.

"Remember, the place where the crystal ball exploded. I will never forget it." Mo Han's voice trembled slightly. It was obvious that his uncle's sacrifice had dealt him a great blow, but he tried his best to suppress his sadness and focus on revenge.

"Okay, that's good." Luo Chen nodded, said no more, and just silently quickened his pace.

The two of them traveled quickly along the way, encountering several waves of sporadic Vampire Clan patrols, but they were all easily dealt with by them.

Today, the strength of Luo Chen and Mo Han has been greatly improved, especially Mo Han. After experiencing the ordeal of life and death, he seems to have been reborn, becoming more stable and powerful.

At dawn, the two finally arrived at the familiar desolate valley.

The valley is still rocky and barren, and the air is filled with a faint smell of blood, as if silently telling of the tragic battle that once took place here.

"That's it." Mo Han stopped and pointed to a ruin deep in the valley. He said in a low voice, "The place where the crystal ball exploded is right there."

Luo Chen looked in the direction of Mo Han's finger, and saw a mess deep in the valley, with rubble piled up like mountains, as if it had experienced a horrible natural disaster.

"Let's go take a look." Luo Chen said, and took the lead to walk towards the ruins. The two carefully searched in the ruins, hoping to find traces of the crystal ball.

The rubble and debris were piled up everywhere, making the search extremely difficult.

Time passed bit by bit, the sun rose gradually, scorching the earth, but the two did not dare to relax at all, carefully searching every stone and every piece of rubble.

"Found it!" Suddenly, Mo Han's voice broke the silence with a hint of surprise.

Luo Chen ran over quickly and saw Mo Han squatting next to a pile of rubble, holding a crystal clear crystal ball in his hand. It was exactly what they had been looking for.

The surface of the crystal ball was covered with fine cracks, and its light had dimmed a lot, but it still exuded a mysterious and powerful aura.

"I really found it!" Luo Chen looked at the crystal ball in surprise, and a glimmer of hope surged in his heart, "Mo Han, can this crystal ball still be used?"

Mo Han carefully examined the crystal ball and nodded: "Although it is severely damaged, the core strength is still there, so it should still be usable."

"Great!" Luo Chen clenched his fists excitedly, "With this crystal ball, we will definitely be able to completely wipe out the Blood Vampire Sect!"

Mo Han was not as excited as Luo Chen. His eyes remained calm, and he just put the crystal ball away silently.

"Luo Chen, what should we do now?" Mo Han asked. He knew that although the crystal ball was powerful, in order to completely destroy the Blood Ghost Sect, it would still require careful planning and powerful strength.

Luo Chen pondered for a moment and said, "Let's leave here first and find a safe place to discuss the next plan."

Mo Han nodded in agreement, and the two of them did not stay any longer and quickly left the valley.

They found a secluded cave and settled down there temporarily.

Luo Chen lit a bonfire to dispel the cold and dampness in the cave.

"Now that we have the crystal ball, what should we do next?" Luo Chen asked Mo Han. He knew that Mo Han knew more about the crystal ball than he did.

Mo Han was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Although the power of the crystal ball is strong, if we want to completely destroy the Blood Vampire Sect, we may need to find the ultimate secret of the Blood Vampire Sect."

"The ultimate secret?" Luo Chen frowned. "Are you talking about the secret in the Tianyuan Empire Palace?"

Mo Han nodded: "Qingshuang went to investigate the palace, maybe she could find some clues. We can't just sit there and do nothing. Maybe we can start from the Blood Ghost Sect's lair and see if we can find any clues about the ultimate secret."

"Alright." Luo Chen agreed, "We only took a quick glance at the Blood Vampire Sect's lair before, and there may be many places that we haven't searched thoroughly.

We can dive in again and see if we can find anything useful."

After the two men had discussed it, they began to work out a detailed infiltration plan.

They carefully recalled the internal structure of the Vampire Clan's lair, analyzed possible defense loopholes, and strived to be foolproof.

Night fell again, covering the desolate valley.

Luo Chen and Mo Han once again came to the vicinity of the Blood Ghost Clan's lair. This time, their goal was clearer and more in-depth.

Relying on their familiarity with the terrain and superb stealth skills, the two quietly avoided the Vampire Clan's patrols and sneaked into the lair again.

This time, they did not rush into action, but carefully searched the nest, looking for any place that might hide secrets.

They searched the previous battle area and explored some corners that they had not visited before.

Suddenly, Mo Han found a tightly closed stone door in a hidden corner.

The surface of the stone door was covered with dust and it looked like no one had opened it for a long time.

"Luo Chen, look here." Mo Han said in a low voice, pointing at the stone gate.

Luo Chen walked forward and looked at the stone door carefully, and found some ancient and mysterious runes engraved on the stone door. These runes exuded an unsettling aura.

"Could this stone door lead to the secret place of the Blood Demon Sect?" Luo Chen guessed.

Mo Han nodded: "It is very likely that this stone door is so hidden and engraved with mysterious runes, it is very likely to hide something important."

The two looked at each other and saw excitement and anticipation in each other's eyes.

They carefully pushed open the stone door, which opened slowly with a heavy friction sound.

Behind the stone door was a long and narrow passage. It was dark and filled with a cold and damp atmosphere.

"Be careful." Luo Chen reminded in a low voice and took the lead to step into the passage.

Mo Han followed closely behind, and the two of them, weapons in hand, explored forward vigilantly.

The passage was winding and it was unknown where it led to. There was silence all around, with only the light footsteps of two people echoing in the passage.

After walking for a long time, the passage finally came to an end. The view in front of us suddenly opened up and a huge underground space appeared.

The underground space was brightly lit, with a huge altar in the center. Various offerings were placed on the altar, emitting a strong smell of blood.

Around the altar stood many members of the Blood Vampire Clan dressed in black robes. They had solemn expressions, as if they were performing some kind of ritual.

Luo Chen and Mo Han hid in the shadows at the entrance of the passage, carefully observing the situation in the underground space.

They found that in the center of the altar, there was a huge pool of blood, with bright red blood rolling in it and emitting a disgusting stench.

Above the blood pool, there was a crystal ball emitting a strange red light. This crystal ball was very similar to the crystal ball in Mo Han's hand, but it was much larger.

"What is that?" Luo Chen asked in a low voice, pointing at the red crystal ball above the blood pool.

Mo Han's eyes were solemn, and he whispered, "That should be the core artifact of the Blood Ghost Sect, the Blood Soul Pearl."

"Blood Soul Orb?" Luo Chen was puzzled. "What is that? What does it have to do with the crystal ball in our hands?"

Mo Han explained: "The Blood Soul Orb is the source of the Blood Ghost Sect's power and the core of their evil rituals. Legend has it that the Blood Soul Orb contains a powerful blood evil force that can control people's hearts and enslave souls. Although the crystal ball in our hands can also restrain the Blood Ghost Sect, it is still much weaker than the Blood Soul Orb." (End of this chapter)
