Xiongshan Nature Reserve was located in Tanzhou City of Jingchu Governor’s district.
Today, this place has long been forgotten by the world.
If one did not look at the map, even many people in Jingchu would not know that such a nature reserve existed.
There was no other way!
Since the end of the hundred-year war, Xiongshan had been included in the first batch of national nature reserves.
It had been under strict protection ever since.
Only a few rangers and the local environmental protection department visit the area on a regular basis.
In modern times, the environmental protection department has learned to use satellites, which was why they came less often.
As a result, the nature reserve has become a truly forgotten place.
The mountain road is covered with moss and thorns.
The valleys on both sides are lush and verdant, showing the charm of spring.
Not far ahead, there was a small pergola built on the mountainside for resting.
Ling Ping’an walked into the pergola and looked around. Then, he turned around and asked, “After this, it’s the ancestral land, right?”
The old Grandma Hu nodded with Hu Nuonuo’s support. “Young lord is Right!”
Grandma Hu let out a sigh of relief as she spoke.
Ever since the Ling family’s ancestors left this homeland with their ancestors 200 years ago, no one had dared to return.
For a full 200 years, no one had dared to return.
Because…
This entire mountain region had become a part of a terrifying and powerful ritual!
Ling Ping’an walked out of the small pavilion and climbed to the top of the mountain.
Looking ahead, a valley appeared before his eyes.
There were lush trees, intertwined vines, and birds and beasts that had started to become active after smelling the scent of spring.
On the opposite side of the valley, there was a small slope.
Its shape looked like a bird nest between the mountains and trees from afar.
This was probably the origin of the fallen Phoenix Slope, right?
Ling Ping’an raised his head and looked at the sky above the slope.
The gas was swirling, so were the stars.
It was as if there was another piece of starry sky, reflecting the shadows of this world.
Starlight fell bit by bit, and at the bottom of the slope, there were huge objects that looked like chains, from the depths of them.
They intersected with each other, which formed an obscure, ominous, and terrifying symbol.
And at the end of this symbol, two shadows intersected with each other.
“So that’s how it is!” Ling Ping’an blinked, and the vision in his eyes disappeared completely, as if what he had just seen was just an illusion.
However, he understood that it was the truth!
The ancestors of the Ling family had once held an extremely powerful and strange ritual here.
The ritual had summoned taboos.
And taboos brought inauspicious signs.
Thus, in order to suppress these taboos and inauspicious omens, the ancestors of the Ling family had chosen to sacrifice themselves.
Using themselves as sacrifices, they had summoned a terrifying and powerful ancient god.
That God had sacrificed his divine body and divine kingdom.
He had turned those taboos and inauspicious omens into a rune and suppressed them here!
Apparently, all of this was related to him!
In fact, it was the reason why he was born!
Ling Ping’an looked at the ancestral land, then turned around and said to Hu, Wang, Zhang, and Lu, who had been following behind him, “Wait for me here first…”
“I’ll go over and take a look. When there’s no danger, I’ll come and pick you up!”
“Yes!” Everyone bowed in unison.
Ling Ping’an then handed Bastet to Hu Nuonuo and instructed, “Nuonuo… you bring Bastet here… if there’s any danger, Bastet can also protect you!”
“Meow,” the little black cat obediently meowed.
“Yes!” Hu Nuonuo nodded seriously.
Thus, Ling Ping’an stepped forward and walked towards the origin of everything.
After he passed through the rugged thorny path, he walked through the dense bushes.
Everywhere he passed, the thorns withered and the bushes withered.
The seemingly peaceful underground was filled with countless rustling sounds.
Finally, he arrived at a ruined building that was already covered in weeds and rotten material, with only a few traces of bricks and tiles exposed outside.
He raised his head and looked at the top of his head. That rune that was filled with omens and taboos appeared once again.
However, this time, Ling Ping’an could clearly see the figure above the rune.
A man and a woman, a yin and a yang, intertwined shadows.
These two shadows were sometimes extremely divine, sometimes incomparably terrifying, and sometimes extremely strange.
All sorts of taboos and filthy language continuously echoed in his ears.
Gently, Ling Ping’an stretched out his hand, grabbing at the ground.
Countless amounts of rotten material and soil were gently grabbed by him.
The ruins that had been buried for two hundred years were once again exposed to the sunlight.
And he saw a place at a glance.
It was a brand new stone house.
When he saw it, the image of the stone house immediately changed.
The buildings in front of him also started to decay.
Green mucus was dripping.
All the wooden houses seemed to come alive.
Under the foundation, huge pieces of meat that looked like goat hooves slowly woke up.
The tiles on the roof kept shaking.
It was like the Crown of a weird tree!
No!
Many tentacles were squirming there.
The wall cracked and pieces of rough green skin squeezed out.
As the awakened monsters screamed, the Black Goat Cub appeared.
That was the favorite creature of the Great Mother God.
The most docile children of the forest black goat!
But if one looked carefully, these terrifying things had already died.
Their bodies had already rotted.
Their limbs were oozing thick juice.
The terrifying divine power within their bodies was continuously extracted by the ritual track formed by this building.
Once it was mixed into the runes above their heads, it formed the energy that maintained this ritual track!
If one looked more carefully, one would know that these terrifying black goat cubs had taken the initiative to commit suicide.
After committing suicide, they even took the initiative to cooperate with humans.
This was so that humans could mix their flesh and soul with the surrounding soil, burn them into bricks, and refine them into a part of the ritual track!
At the foot of the ruins, there were at least hundreds of corpses of black goat cubs.
Among them, there were dozens of dead black goat cubs whose hearts were still beating.
Even if these terrifying creatures were dead,.
They were still enough to distort and destroy the ecology of an entire world!
And while they were still alive.
The black goat cubs were the children and envoys of the Dark Mother God.
Each black goat cubs could easily destroy the lives of an entire world!
And now, hundreds of black goat cubs had all died here, turning into bricks and tiles, becoming part of the sacrificial altar and ritual track!
Ling Ping’an took a deep breath. “As expected!”
He raised his head and looked at the runes above his head. “Oh the mother of Darkness!”
One of the immortal three pillar gods.
The Black Goat that gave birth to thousands of children was the mother that gave birth to him!
Ling Ping’an actually knew long ago.
But he had never been willing to admit it.
Now, the truth was right in front of him, and he had no choice but to accept it.
But…
How could be the dark mother alone give birth to monsters?
So..
Who was his father?
As Ling Ping’an thought this, the sticker in his hand began to tremble.
