These two words were written in ancient script, and there was nothing special about them. From afar, it looked as if they were written by a child who had just started learning how to write.
However, if one were to take a closer look at them, they would realize that there was some kind of unique power within them that seemed to allow one to peer into the future, allowing one's will to travel from the present to several dozen millenniums ago, as if undergoing a baptism.
"What is this place?"
Zhang Xuan was astonished.
"This is the place where the members of the Zhang clan awaken their bloodline! As long as one is a member of the Zhang clan, their bloodline will automatically ignite upon entering the Blood Pool. Be it in terms of cultivation or occupation, they will experience a qualitative leap! "
Zhang Wuchen explained.
"Awaken their bloodline?" Zhang Xuan widened his eyes in realization.
It was no wonder why those two words were able to give him such a feeling. The Zhang clan's bloodline was able to control time, so there was no doubt that the Time Quintessence was involved in the awakening of their bloodline.
"Zhang Shi, are you interested in entering to take a look?"
Zhang Wuchen asked with a smile.
"Enter? Can I enter? "Zhang Xuan hurriedly waved his hands.
How could an outsider enter such an important place as that?
"The Zhang Clan's Blood Reservoir is only useful to those who possess the bloodline of the Zhang Clan. Outsiders won't be affected by it, and they won't cause any damage to it either. It's fine for us to enter to take a look.
Zhang Wuchen nodded.
The Blood Pool was a forbidden ground of the Zhang clan. Even the members of the clan had to meet the requirements before they were allowed to enter. The reason why Zhang Wuchen said those words was to dispel Zhang Xuan's doubts.
"That's good …"
Zhang Xuan's eyes lit up upon hearing that he could enter the Blood Pool as he pleased.
A bloodline that could awaken the Zhang clan's bloodline was bound to be extraordinary. If he could enter to take a look, he might be able to gain a deeper understanding of the Zhang clan. This would allow him to stand a better chance against the young prodigy in the future.
"Let's go!"
Seeing that Zhang Xuan didn't doubt his words, Zhang Wuchen heaved a sigh of relief. He walked up to the seal on the door, took out his token, and pressed it lightly. Weng! The door slowly opened.
Following behind the young man, Zhang Xuan carefully observed the young man's movements before walking in. Passing through a light barrier, his body jolted, and he immediately felt that the flow of time around him had changed. It was completely different from the outside world.
"This is …"
"This is a folded space left behind by our ancestor, and it contains the true meaning of time. Time is sometimes fast and sometimes slow, and it is in a wandering state. As long as the bloodline of the Zhang family fuses with it, they will immediately be immersed in the river of time. A month in the outside world is a year in here. This means that they will have more time to comprehend their occupation and cultivation. Of course, this is only a comprehension of their soul state. Their strength won't change! "
Zhang Wuchen explained.
"One month outside, one year inside?" Zhang Xuan was speechless.
Even if he was unable to raise his cultivation, the fact that his soul had been in this state for so long was already an incredible feat.
The difference between a month and a year was twelve times. In other words, the members of the Zhang family who had awakened their bloodline would have twelve times more time to study and cultivate here … It was no wonder there were so many geniuses in the Zhang family that the Luo family couldn't compare to. Just this Blood Reservoir alone was something that countless clans dreamed of but were unable to obtain.
If he had been able to enter this place and cultivate nonstop, he would have been able to reach his current level in less than a month.
"Eye of Insight!"
Recovering from his shock, Zhang Xuan swiftly scanned through the innumerable lines in his eyes.
The folded space before him was indeed different from what he had seen before. Through the Eye of Insight, he was able to see layers upon layers of folded space, reminiscent of a rainbow. Walking along them, he could feel that the flow of time around him was different from other places.
However, such a rainbow couldn't be grasped or touched. If one didn't pay close attention to it, it would be impossible for one to notice it, let alone assimilate into it and alter the flow of time.
As Zhang Xuan slowly walked forward, Zhang Wuchen silently observed by the side, and the frown on his forehead deepened.
There isn't the slightest anomaly on him. Could it be that … he isn't?
Previously, the First Elder and he had suspected that Zhang Xuan might be related to the missing person, so they had intentionally brought him to the Blood Reservoir to investigate. However, from the looks of it, there was no reaction at all.
Ordinary members of the Zhang family who had never been to the Blood Reservoir would have their bloodline awakened as soon as they entered, causing them to fall into a coma. Their Primordial Spirit would then be immersed in the unique flow of time to study and cultivate.
Yet, there was no reaction at all. It seemed like not only was there no Zhang family bloodline in his blood, he wasn't related to the Zhang family at all.
Right, his Primordial Spirit …
Zhang Xuan thought.
The Primordial Spirit of any member of the Zhang family would be able to resonate with their Primordial Spirit. After all, one's soul wouldn't change from life to death.
With such a thought in mind, Zhang Xuan stepped forward and said with a smile, "Zhang Shi, the Time Quintessence in the Blood Reservoir requires one's Primordial Spirit to see through it. Why don't you give it a try and see if you can see anything?"
"Primordial Spirit?" Zhang Xuan nodded. "Alright then!"
Even though he had cultivated the means of the soul oracles, granting him a massive Primordial Spirit, after comprehending the Heavenly Art of Dimension Unravel, he was able to alter his size freely. Even an elder of the Zhang family wouldn't be able to see through his Primordial Spirit easily, so there was no reason for him to hide it.
It just so happened that he wanted to study the Time Quintessence in the Blood Reservoir and deduce its secrets.
Sitting on the floor, Zhang Xuan drew his Primordial Spirit out from his glabella.
What he saw through his Primordial Spirit was different from what he saw with his eyes. It was as if he had entered a snowy world, and snowflakes were drifting all around him.
Knowing that these snowflakes were the streaks of the Time Quintessence, Zhang Xuan reached out and grabbed them.
Hula!
The streaks streaked across his palm.
"My Primordial Spirit doesn't carry the aura of the Zhang family at all …"
Taking this sight into sight, a hint of disappointment surfaced in Zhang Wuchen's eyes.
If a member of the Zhang family had drawn his Primordial Spirit out and entered the Blood Reservoir, he would surely have been able to retain the streaks of the Time Quintessence and assimilate them into his soul. However, the other party didn't react at all when he came into contact with his Primordial Spirit. There could only be one possibility …
His Primordial Spirit had nothing to do with the Zhang family at all!
It seemed like his previous suspicions were wrong.
"Zhang Shi, I'll have to ask you to leave now!"
Realizing what was going on, Zhang Xuan waved his hand coldly.
"Leave?"
Zhang Xuan was stunned for a moment before returning his Primordial Spirit to his body.
"Un. This is the restricted area of the Zhang family. I brought you here, but there's a time limit. You can leave now."
Zhang Wuchen waved his hand casually.
"This …"
Seeing the other party's indifference, Zhang Xuan was rendered speechless.
It's not like I was the one who wanted to come here. You were the one who dragged me in, and after five minutes, you're already chasing me away …
There was indeed something wrong with the heads of the Zhang family.
"Farewell!"
Seeing that the other party wasn't even in the mood to see him off, Zhang Xuan couldn't be bothered to look around anymore. Thus, he turned around and left.
He didn't want to take a look at the Time Quintessence anyway.
I have to report this to the First Elder right away!
Seeing that Zhang Xuan was leaving, Zhang Wuchen quickly left the Blood Reservoir and closed the door behind him before heading straight for the First Elder's residence.
Due to the speed at which he left, he didn't notice that the laws and Time Quintessence in the Blood Reservoir were trembling in fear, not daring to move at all.
