The ninth level of the Sacred Fire Tower.
This is where the Master of the Human Ancestral Court and the guardian elders deliberate over affairs. However, the position of the Ancestral Court in the Border Wasteland Region has been vacant for thousands of years. Venerable Minghe acts as the Grand Elder of the Ancestral Court, taking on the responsibilities of the court!
What's more, many of the guardian elders of the Human Ancestral Court in the Border Wasteland Region are almost entirely transferred out to defend against the Exotic Clan in the Hundred Clans Battlefield. Only a handful remain, which is why the Sacred Fire Tower seems desolate.
As for the tenth floor of the Sacred Fire Tower, it is home to a Flame Altar, a place where the sacred fire is lit and flame signals are sent out. When the flames at the top of the Sacred Fire Tower blaze, it signifies that the Border Wasteland Region is in a critical situation.
