Ye Yun unleashes the Devouring Immortal Bug, a creature capable of consuming the foundation of Immortality. Mo Wuxie, initially defiant, is terrified as the bug begins to devour her power. She reveals the existence of the Celestial Realm and the mysterious being known as Lawless, who was born during a catastrophic celestial event.

"As expected of the Dead Infant, its arrival was earth-shattering, truly different from the rest!"

After listening to Mo Wuxie’s words, Ye Yun smiled without revealing his emotions.

Mo Wuxie’s expression was silent, nodding, he said: "The name of the Dead Infant spread throughout the entire Immortal Realm back then. After the dark chaos settled, several Immortal Kings were furious. After investigating thoroughly, they unanimously demanded the Lin Family to execute this Dead Infant."

"It’s already dead, does it still need to be executed?"

Ye Yun laughed and said.

"Although the Dead Infant had no soul and didn’t breathe, considered being in a state of death, the major figures in the Immortal Realm were still uneasy, so they had the Lin Family grind its bones to dust, completely eradicating it..."

Mo Wuxie sighed.

"Grind its bones to dust?"

Ye Yun let out a cold laugh: "To dare to lay such a vicious hand on a dead baby, do they truly believe that a soulless infant could cause heaven to descend into seven days of darkness, releasing dark beings and causing chaos across the world?"

Mo Wuxie shook his head and sighed: "There was no way around it; after all, the Lin Family only had the strength of a Quasi-Immortal King, and couldn’t oppose stronger forces, so Old Master Lin ordered to throw the Dead Infant into the Divine Fire Furnace for incineration..."

"And then, it wasn’t burnt to death, was it?"

Ye Yun asked with great interest.

"It burned in the Divine Fire Furnace for three days, yet the Dead Infant wasn’t burnt to death. At this moment, Ye Qingmei, seizing the chance when others weren’t paying attention, attacked the guards and snatched the Dead Infant from the Divine Fire Furnace, escaping from the Lin Family under her husband’s cover!"

Mo Wuxie spoke slowly.

She glanced at Ye Yun, hurriedly explaining further: "This Ye Qingmei is the Dead Infant’s mother."

Ye Yun nodded slightly.

This woman named Ye Qingmei dared to make a move, even knowing her child was a Dead Infant.

It shows how great a mother’s love is.

"Ye Qingmei was hunted all along, always in an extremely dangerous situation. Later, with her husband Lin Xuantian’s help, she used the Scroll of Creation to break the barrier between the two worlds, arriving in this Divine Land..."

Mo Wuxie continued.

"The Scroll of Creation, is it perhaps the one suppressing your Wordless Heavenly Scripture?"

Ye Yun’s eyes flashed as he asked lightly.

"Exactly that scroll.

However, the one suppressing my Wordless Heavenly Scripture is just one part of the Scroll of Creation, and it only records two Immortal Laws..."

Mo Wuxie sighed, a look of frustration suddenly appearing on her face.

"The cultivation technique obtained by Peach Blossom Island is one of them, and the Technique of Invincibility Through Hundred Catastrophes I obtained is the other. But why did you want to pass it on to me back then, was it to seize my body?"

Ye Yun asked coldly.

"Indeed, there was such intent to seize your body, my lord..."

Mo Wuxie’s expression grew a bit frantic as she explained incoherently: "To be honest, my lord, these two Immortal Laws are extremely profound and mysterious, even I couldn’t truly master them.

The reason for choosing to pass them on.

Was to secretly aid you in breaking through to the ultimate cultivation limit of this world quickly; meanwhile, I also believed in your high aptitude and talent, that you could comprehend these two Immortal Laws, using them to break open the black Dead Infant statue and release me..."

"Heh, your plan runs quite deep indeed!"

Ye Yun chuckled.

It seems the cultivation techniques recorded in this Scroll of Creation are indeed very formidable, he had underestimated them before.

"My lord, I had no other choice..."

Mo Wuxie said dejectedly, sighing: "The cultivators of this world have terribly poor comprehension for the Immortal Laws, making it hard to grasp deeply.

The founding ancestor of Peach Blossom Island acquired the Peach God Nine Styles many years ago, yet hasn’t advanced to the God-Emperor Realm, which frustrates me greatly, hence no further opening of the Wordless Heavenly Scripture to them!"

"I remember, there was a small crack on the little finger of the Dead Infant Statue, what was that about?"

Ye Yun followed up with another question.

"I don’t know either, maybe it was left intentionally by Ye Qingmei, or maybe the injuries she sustained back then were too severe, resulting in some flaws during my seal..."

Mo Wuxie said softly.

Ye Yun slowly asked: "After Ye Qingmei brought the Dead Infant to this world, were you sent by Old Master Lin immediately afterwards?"

"Old Master Lin lacked the power, it was the effort of several Immortal Kings jointly, at a great cost, sending us five Immortal Monarchs down from the Immortal Realm to chase Ye Qingmei and the Dead Infant!"

Mo Wuxie explained.

"Were you successful?"

Ye Yun frowned and asked.

"No, upon descending to the Lower Realm, we were all suppressed to the God-Emperor Realm, our powers weren’t much different from each other. And Ye Qingmei was very clever, plus had quite a number of treasures, she hid everywhere, defeating us five one by one, with me being sealed while the other two were sealed before me..."

Mo Wuxie said with a bitter smile.

"Why didn’t she kill you?"

Ye Yun asked curiously.

"In this world, having the foundation of Immortality makes one unable to be killed by the God-Emperor Realm, though you, my lord, are an exception..."

Mo Wuxie said helplessly.

To encounter such a mysterious and powerful figure with formidable power, she was at a loss.

However.

She now had hope of returning to the Immortal Realm.

This master was extremely powerful, the treasures he carried were drool-worthy.

With his guidance.

This lord’s return to the Immortal Realm shouldn’t be difficult.

At this moment.

Mo Wuxie was already preparing to follow this lord in the future.

Anyway, having revealed secrets today, even if she returned, she would face questioning by those several Immortal Kings, based on her current actions, those Immortal Kings would surely take her life.

Ye Yun remained silent for a while.

Then, as he thought of something, he asked again: "Do you have any trace of your accomplices?"

"No, my lord, they might have been suppressed as well!"

Mo Wuxie said dejectedly.

"However, considering Ye Qingmei fought with us five consecutively, her current situation might be quite dire..."

She added immediately.

Ye Yun took a deep breath, gazing at the vast white world, he sighed softly: "Who would have thought, coming to Peach Blossom Island would lead to such an absurd series of events..."

To be honest.

Ye Yun wouldn’t doubt the truth of Mo Wuxie’s words.

But if someone claimed he was the Dead Infant, Ye Yun wouldn’t believe it at all.

For he was a living infant, picked up by his master on the Cangnan Continent ten thousand years ago, and subsequently joined the Dragon God Sect.

From a young age.

Ye Yun had always grown with a fair complexion, completely incomparable to that pitch-black Dead Infant.

As for the resemblance in facial features.

In Ye Yun’s view, it was simply a coincidence.

After all, as a modern person.

Ye Yun knew that many people looked quite similar to certain celebrities.

Retracting his thoughts, Ye Yun looked at Mo Wuxie, and calmly asked: "What were you called in the Immortal Realm?"

"My lord, in the Upper Realm I was known as Immortal Monarch Bi Luo."

Mo Wuxie replied respectfully.

Ye Yun nodded, then slowly began to speak: "You may cultivate peacefully in this small world of the Wordless Heavenly Scripture for now, once I’ve settled my matters here, I’ll naturally take you to the Immortal Realm..."

With these words.

Ye Yun reached out his hand and retrieved the black cloth.

"Thank you, my lord, for making this possible!"

Freed from her predicament, Mo Wuxie was overjoyed, bowing down at Ye Yun’s feet.

"Please, rise."

Ye Yun smiled gently, turned, and drifted away towards the outside.

A few breaths later.

Mo Wuxie slowly stood up, watching the ethereal white-clad figure, her beautiful eyes reflecting admiration.

"This lord is incredibly powerful, whether it’s that sword, this piece of black cloth, or that silver worm, any could end my life..."

Mo Wuxie murmured to herself.

"I better cultivate here obediently, although there won’t be much progress, at least it could pass the time!"

She smiled bittersweetly, sitting down cross-legged slowly.

...

At the whirlpool entrance of the Wordless Heavenly Scripture, a white-robed figure emerged.

"Huh, why did Mo Wuxie and the Saintess Qingwu not come out, but instead a young monk at the God Venerable Realm?"

Ancestor Tian Sha, hidden in the void, was taken aback upon seeing Ye Yun.
