Eight Gods Island.
This was a massive island hundreds of thousands of times larger than Conflagration Island, and it was also the headquarters of Eight Gods Temple.
The Eight Gods Temple's Temple Lords all lived here, and Heavenly Emperor Wu Hen, one of the new Eight Gods, was one of them.
"Killing Heavenly Emperor Wu Hen on Eight Gods Island will be very difficult. Even if I manage to kill him, I'll probably have a hard time escaping," Lin Tian thought to himself after stepping onto Eight Gods Island.
He couldn't give up on this clone just to kill Heavenly Emperor Wu Hen, so he had to think of something else.
For example, he could wait for an opportunity to ambush Heavenly Emperor Wu Hen when he was alone and kill him. Then, when the experts of Eight Gods Temple arrived, he would immediately flee. This was a relatively safe method.
However, this method depended on luck. For experts at Heavenly Emperor Wu Hen's level, it was very common for them to enter seclusion for millions of years. Lin Tian couldn't possibly wait that long, could he?
But no matter what, Lin Tian still decided to stay in Eight Gods Island for a period of time to observe.
After settling down on Eight Gods Island, Lin Tian discovered that the Eight Gods of Eight Gods Temple almost never appeared.
They stood guard on Eight Gods Island, and they would only personally deal with important matters. Otherwise, the higher-ups of Eight Gods Temple would deal with them.
Heavenly Emperor Wu Hen was one of the new Eight Gods, so he naturally couldn't leave Eight Gods Island.
However, Lin Tian heard another piece of information that piqued Lin Tian's interest.
"The Land of Ruins, the Blood Cavern!"
This was a piece of information Lin Tian had heard by chance. Most people wouldn't know about it.
From what he heard, the Blood Cavern was an extremely important place in the Land of Ruins. It would only open once in a very long period of time, and each time, experts would enter.
Many treasures grew in the Blood Cavern, and there was also something that the experts of the Land of Ruins would go crazy over – blood crystals!
These blood crystals could stimulate the development of one's bloodline, and all cultivators of the Dao of Bloodlines would fight over them. However, blood crystals were extremely rare, and it wasn't easy to find them.
And the next time the Blood Cavern opened, it would open!
"When the Blood Cavern opens, will Heavenly Emperor Wu Hen go in?" Lin Tian pondered.
If Heavenly Emperor Wu Hen went in, the Blood Cavern would be a good place to make a move.
However, there was a problem now.
Lin Tian did not have a quota to enter the Blood Cave, so he could not enter the Blood Cave.
Basically, the Blood Cave was a treasured land controlled by the eight major forces. Those who wanted to enter the Blood Cave were either members of the eight major forces who could enter freely, or members of other forces who had a certain quota.
It was impossible for Lin Tian to join the Eight Great Factions because the Eight Great Factions could easily investigate his origins. Once he joined the Eight Great Factions, he would definitely be exposed, and he would be finished.
In that case, there was only one solution left.
"I'll find a small faction that has a quota to enter the Blood Cave and join them as a guest elder!" Lin Tian decided.

There was an island in the ruins called Thousand Mountain Island.
This was where the Thousand Mountain Sect was located, and the Thousand Mountain Sect was a small force in the ruins.
Now, this small force had encountered quite a bit of trouble.
The main hall of the Thousand Mountains Sect.
"Everyone, what should we do now? The Dominating Divine Sect wants to become a major force and is expanding. Our Thousand Mountain Sect is within their range of expansion. With their style, I'm afraid they'll swallow us whole." The Thousand Mountain Sect Master sighed.
Many of the Thousand Mountain Sect Elders present frowned. Although the Thousand Mountain Sect was an island force, it was the weakest island force with only one island, while the Dominating Divine Sect was a powerful force with more than a dozen islands.
Compared to the Dominating Divine Sect, the Thousand Mountain Sect was too weak!
"Sect Master, why don't we run?" An Elder asked weakly.
"Run?!" The Thousand Mountain Sect Master said coldly, "Where do we run to? The islands in the ruins are basically all under the jurisdiction of a force. Our Thousand Mountain Sect has many disciples, and if we want to reclaim an island, we'll have to start a war with other forces. Otherwise, no force will give an island to us. However, does our Thousand Mountain Sect have the strength to attack a new island? No, we can't do that. If we leave Thousand Mountain Island, unless we join another force, we won't even have a place to stay. Moreover, this is our foundation. We can't give it up so easily! "
"If we don't run, then we can only ask for help to resist the invasion of the Dominating Divine Sect!" Another Elder suggested.
"But which force is willing to help our Thousand Mountain Sect? If they want to help, they'll have to pay a price. What price can our Thousand Mountain Sect pay? "An Elder asked.
The others were silent. They didn't know what to say.
The Thousand Mountain Sect was too weak, and it was difficult for them to offer treasures that would tempt other forces. It was very difficult to ask for help from other forces.
"I can help your Thousand Mountain Sect!"
A voice suddenly sounded in the Thousand Mountain Sect.
"Who is it?"
The Thousand Mountain Sect Master stood up from his seat and exclaimed.
"It's me!"
A young man slowly walked in from outside the Thousand Mountain Sect's main hall and gradually appeared in the sight of the Thousand Mountain Sect's upper echelons.
This young man was Lin Tian!
At this moment, Lin Tian was in a good mood. He didn't expect the Thousand Mountain Sect to be in trouble, which was exactly what he wanted.
This was because the Thousand Mountain Sect had a quota to enter the Blood Cave. However, the Thousand Mountain Sect rarely went to the Blood Cave. Sometimes, this quota was wasted.
However, if he became the Thousand Mountain Sect's Guest Elder, he would be qualified to enter the Blood Cave.
With the Thousand Mountain Sect's current situation, as long as he was willing to help, the Thousand Mountain Sect would definitely agree to Lin Tian's conditions.
"Who are you?"
The Thousand Mountain Sect Master asked cautiously.
To be able to easily enter the Thousand Mountain Sect's main hall without alerting the Thousand Mountain Sect's disciples and the upper echelons, this was enough to prove that Lin Tian was not simple.
"I said that I can help you resist the invasion of the Dominating God Sect," Lin Tian said with a smile.
The Thousand Mountain Sect Master sneered and said, "Don't joke around, sir. The Dominating God Sect is a powerful island-level force with more than a dozen islands. The Dominating God Sect's Sect Master's strength is close to that of a powerhouse on the War Ranking. How can you resist the Dominating God Sect alone?"
"What if this is the case?"
Lin Tian released his aura. A terrifying aura spread out and crushed everyone present.
In an instant, all the upper echelons of the Thousand Mountain Sect seemed to be imprisoned by a force and couldn't move at all.
Even the Thousand Mountain Sect Master, who was at the peak of Dao Realm Level Four, was trembling. He was locked down by Lin Tian's aura. It was as if Lin Tian could kill him completely with just a slight move.
"So scary!"
The Thousand Mountain Sect Master's heart trembled. "…"
