Ye Yun agreed to a mysterious green figure's condition to obtain an inheritance. The figure revealed itself to be Mist Kirin, an ancient beast from the Holy Kirin Continent, which exists separately from the Divine Land. Mist Kirin explained that its body was sealed by the You Tian Mo Clan to incubate a treasure, and asked Ye Yun to retrieve its remains from the Control Heaven Sect on the Holy Kirin Continent in exchange for the incomplete "Hand of Heaven's Control" inheritance. Ye Yun agreed, driven by curiosity about the Holy Kirin Continent and its connection to other powerful beings like Ancestor Dragon and Sir Feng.

"Alas, times have changed. It’s been over ten million years, and the Divine Land has also changed its state. I’m sure many truths have been buried in the history..."

Upon hearing Ye Yun’s words, the Mist Kirin shook its head and sighed with grief.

The spirits of the Divine Land have always been extremely selfish and greedy, capable of nearly anything.

Thus, the spirits of the Divine Land are long unaware that there are three continents that surround the Divine Land.

"Back then, you were ambushed here by the Divine Land’s spirits. Was it because the message Lord Shiqilin had you deliver was extremely important?"

Ye Yun asked with solemnity.

"Probably, but I’m not sure exactly what it was. After I was killed, the letter from Lord Shiqilin was also snatched away."

The Mist Kirin sighed, pondered for a moment, and then continued, "It should be related to the Dragon Clan and the Divine Land—I personally suspect that the Divine Land’s spirits seem to want to ally with the Kylin Clan and then attack the Dragon Hidden Continent..."

"The spirits of the Divine Land are truly despicable!"

Ye Yun snorted with cold disdain.

Millions of years ago, the spirits, Dragon Clan, Phoenix Clan, and Kylin Clan were the top beings on the four continents.

Naturally, friction could easily occur between them.

But what Ye Yun did not understand was why the spirits of the Divine Land were bent on exterminating the Dragon Clan.

After all, according to current records, the Dragon Clan had once helped the spirits of the Divine Land resist the Ancient Clan.

Later on...

The spirits of the Divine Land turned their weapons against the Dragon Clan, which left him quite perplexed.

Such ingratitude, what on earth for?

"This wisp of my obsession is about to disappear. As long as you find Mount Immortal and the Teleportation Array there, you can go to the Holy Kirin Continent."

The Mist Kirin sighed and suddenly said with urgency.

"Where is Mount Immortal?"

Ye Yun frowned and asked softly.

He hadn’t heard of this particular mountain range before.

"Mount Immortal is just a small and not very famous mountain range. After so many years, it has long been renamed, but I’ll transmit its appearance to you. Once you see it, you will naturally recognize it!"

The Mist Kirin said quickly.

Next, as the mist surged, a small mountain range appeared in the void.

This mountain range looked precisely like a sleeping old man, easy to recognize.

"The teleportation array is located at the chest of the old man. After such a long time, the array might be damaged, and at that time, you’ll need to find an Array Master to repair it..."

The Mist Kirin explained.

With the passage of time, over tens of millions of years, it could not guarantee that the array could still be used.

"I understand."

Ye Yun nodded. Having a clue was far better than having none.

This so-called Mount Immortal, no matter how hidden it might be, he naturally had ways to find it.

Don’t forget, Ye Yun also has that follower, the Dragon Tree.

This guy’s avatars are spread across the Divine Land, and he’s well-versed in all the mountain ranges of the Divine Land.

"For some reason, this teleportation array can’t directly send you to the Holy Kirin Continent but to an ancient road leading there. That road is extremely perilous. If you have cultivated the Hand of Heaven’s Control, it will increase your chances of passing through..."

The Mist Kirin said again.

"Alright, I understand."

Ye Yun was moved, nodding lightly.

What the Mist Kirin described was very similar to the place where Dragon Xuan and Ao Xue disappeared.

Now Ye Yun was about 50-60% certain that Dragon Xuan and Ao Xue had gone to the Holy Kirin Continent.

Of course.

Maybe they went to the Fengyi Continent, too.

Outside the Divine Land, they could only go to these two continents.

And for the cultivators of the Divine Land, these two continents were almost unheard of.

"Good luck!"

The Mist Kirin gazed at Ye Yun one last time, then gave a blessing.

Then.

The green mist slowly dispersed, eventually disappearing entirely.

Ye Yun picked up that inherited stone, sighing with emotion.

This time, he’d originally wanted to find the Sun God King.

Unexpectedly, he found Eastern Emperor Taiyi and had a fight.

After breaking the seal, he encountered the Mist Kirin of the Holy Kirin Continent, dead for millions of years.

This encounter was truly bizarre.

Ye Yun stood silently for a moment, then collected the stone fragments on the ground, disappearing from that place in a flash.

His true body silently returned to Gu Anran’s side, and then fused with his clone.

During the entire process, Gu Anran naturally remained completely unaware.

"Senior Brother, why do I feel like the mist is thinning?"

Gu Anran looked around, noticing something, and said in surprise.

"It has thinned. This Grey Mist Sea is probably like the tide..."

Ye Yun said with a smile.

He naturally knew the reason behind it.

The Sky Controlling Vessel had been seized, and a portion of the grey mist was absorbed.

Without that fragment of the grey stone origin, the pervasive grey mist was bound to disperse naturally, rendering it incapable of reforming.

Consequently, this Grey Mist Sea was destined to vanish entirely.

Indeed, this proved to be the case.

After approximately seven to eight days, the grey mist noticeably thinned.

Curiously, the Fog Monsters became almost entirely absent.

It appeared that a significant number of Fog Monsters had mysteriously disappeared.

This peculiar phenomenon left many teams thoroughly perplexed and bewildered.

Nevertheless, there was little they could do. Unable to locate the Fog Monsters, their only recourse was to retrace their steps and depart.

Gu Anran and Ye Yun followed suit.

Emerging from the dissipating grey mist, the duo encountered numerous cultivators gathered in a valley.

Suspended in the void above the valley was a Celestial Boat.

Four distinct characters were inscribed near the bow of this magnificent Celestial Boat.

Ten Thousand Monster God Temple.

"Senior Brother, it's no wonder everyone is waiting here. So, the people from the Ten Thousand Monster God Temple have arrived. Are they here to trade inner cores with us?"

Gu Anran inquired with a bright smile.

During their recent expedition, she and her Senior Brother had remained side-by-side, successfully eliminating a considerable number of Fog Monsters and amassing two to three thousand Fog Demon Inner Dans.

Such a haul would have astounded many smaller teams had it been revealed.

After all, their team consisted of only two individuals.

In the eyes of the general populace, these two were merely cultivators at the True God-stage, perceived as the most insignificant of small squads.

"Very well! I see most participants have arrived. We shall commence the purchase of Fog Demon Inner Dans!"

Onboard the Celestial Boat, a burly figure from the Monster Clan, who was in the Divine Monarch Realm, regarded the scene below with a gentle smile.

"Understood!"

A clamor arose from the assembled crowd in the valley as they leaped into the air.

"Please form orderly queues!"

Dozens of disciples from the Ten Thousand Monster God Temple disembarked from the Celestial Boat, positioning themselves to manage the cultivators and guide them into a long, organized line.

Ye Yun maintained a composed demeanor, queuing alongside Gu Anran without any pretense of special status.

"Greetings, esteemed brother. Might I inquire if your team truly comprises only the two of you?"

A middle-aged cultivator hovering behind Ye Yun, noticing something intriguing, could not resist asking with a smile.

"Indeed, my Senior Sister and I have formed a small, intimate team."

Ye Yun affirmed with a smile and a nod.

He was fully aware of the amusement hidden within the middle-aged man's smile.

"Heh, you two are remarkably daring to have emerged alive. That is no small accomplishment..."

The middle-aged man stifled his laughter, offering a gesture of approval with his thumb.

"You look down on us, don't you? You'll soon discover the truth!"

Gu Anran's brow furrowed, and she cast an irked glance at the middle-aged man, though she refrained from further words.
