After he finished speaking, he left the altar with the City Lord and other Demon Beasts, returning to the interior of the City Lord's Mansion.

They sat together, discussing the recent events, trying to ascertain the root of the problem.

After some deliberation, they decided to temporarily suspend the ritual and wait to uncover the cause before making a further decision.

Logan also offered his advice, suggesting that there might be an issue with the runes on the altar or that some other unknown force had interfered with the ritual.

The City Lord and the other Demon Beasts, after hearing Logan's suggestion, nodded in agreement.

They decided to follow Logan's advice, to first find the cause before deciding whether to continue the ritual.

In the following days, Logan and the City Lord led a group of Demon Beasts to investigate around the City Lord's Mansion, trying to find the source of that unknown force.

They examined the runes on the altar and searched every corner of the City Lord's Mansion, but they found nothing out of the ordinary.

This puzzled Logan. He was certain he had felt the presence of that force, yet he couldn't find its source. He started to wonder if his perception had been mistaken previously.

However, just when he was about to give up, he suddenly discovered a hidden secret room in a secluded corner of the City Lord's Mansion. Inside the secret room lay an ancient scroll, which recorded a mysterious ritual and spell.

As Logan read the contents of the scroll, excitement surged within him. He guessed that this scroll might be the answer they had been searching for. So, he quickly took the scroll back to the City Lord's Mansion to study it with the City Lord and the other Demon Beasts.

After much effort, they finally unraveled the secrets of the scroll. It turned out that the ritual was not meant to enhance bloodlines but to summon a powerful Demon Beast. And that Demon Beast was none other than their old ancestor they had been trying to save!

With the truth revealed, both Logan and the City Lord were pleasantly surprised. They hadn't expected the scroll to contain such crucial information. Thus, they decided to conduct the ritual immediately to summon the old ancestor.

Under Logan's lead, they stepped onto the altar again. This time, no mistakes occurred, and the ritual progressed smoothly to the end. As the spell was chanted, a powerful force erupted from the altar, releasing their old ancestor from the barrier.

After the old ancestor appeared, he looked at Logan, the City Lord, and the others, showing a gratified smile on his face. He expressed his gratitude for their efforts and pledged to lead them towards a better future.

Upon hearing the old ancestor's words, Logan, the City Lord, and the others felt a wave of excitement and exhilaration. They knew that a new era was approaching, and they would be witnesses and participants in it.

However, he didn't delve too deeply into it, pondering to himself to avoid unnecessary trouble out of sheer curiosity. After all, in this world where the Strong Ones reign supreme, it is better to mind one's own business. Given the strength of those Demon Beasts, they definitely wouldn't allow any Human to intrude upon their territory easily, unless that person possessed absolute strength that would cause them wariness. With this in mind, Logan followed behind the City Lord with a steady stride, his gaze revealing a hint of caution and yet not concealing his curiosity about the unknown.

The City Lord seemed to notice Logan's thoughts and smiled faintly, speaking in an almost reassuring tone, “Master Logan, rest assured, this journey will surely bring you gains. We may be Demon Beasts, but we also know gratitude and will remember your help in our hearts.”

Logan nodded slightly without saying much, simply following the City Lord's steps more closely. The two traversed the Mansion's intricate corridors, passing by buildings adorned with elaborate carvings, and finally arrived at the back of the estate. There, a lush, verdant hill lay, with the sound of birdsong echoing through the forest, maintaining a tranquil silence, as if separated from the World.

The City Lord confidently led Logan through the dense forest, following a path that, though concealed, was clearly well-trodden. This must be the shortcut to that mysterious sanctuary. Before long, they arrived at a clearing, starkly different from the dense forest, open and with the sky looking particularly vast.

“We've arrived, Master Logan,” the City Lord said, stopping in his tracks and turning to Logan with a hint of solemnity in his voice.

Logan looked around and saw that many Demon Beasts had already gathered here, at least a dozen of them. They varied in form, some covered in scales, others with wings, but all emanated a powerful aura, clearly of extraordinary strength. These Demon Beasts, whether standing or lying down, were all unanimously focused on the two of them, especially Logan, whose presence as the sole Human undoubtedly attracted the attention of all the Demon Beasts.

In the center of the clearing, there stood a massive array, with lines that were complex and ancient, as though harboring some unknown power. Above their heads, a vortex slowly rotated, the aura emanating from it ancient and profound. Logan's heart stirred; this was undoubtedly the gateway to a barrier.

“This is the gateway to the barrier we discovered, within which our old ancestor is imprisoned,” the City Lord said, pointing at the swirling vortex above, his voice deep, “We have tried many times but have always been unable to open this barrier, let alone rescue the old ancestor.”

Logan stared up at the vortex. Even from a distance, he could feel the terrifying power within it–a power that seemed to shake the heavens and the earth, making all things tremble. He frowned slightly, pondering to himself the consequences if such a force was to spiral out of control.
