Chu Country, within a certain manor.
From the outside, it looks like an inconspicuous wealthy man's manor.
Around the manor are fertile fields, willow trees, wells, ponds, and ditches, all laid out gracefully, appearing unique and serene. Around the manor, there are also farmers tilling the land, dealing with the weeds in the fields.
Inside the manor, in a courtyard, there are array patterns, illusion arrays, attack arrays, defensive arrays, and other combinations set up, making it difficult even for a Golden Core Cultivator to break through in a short time.
In the center of the courtyard, there is a blood pool.
The blood pool is bubbling, with a large quantity of fresh blood inside.
The blood does not have a foul stench; instead, it has a faint fragrance.
