Chen Mobai's actions, from defeating the White Bone Demon King to slaying the old Flood Dragon, make the Central Demon Lord suspect his involvement with a powerful lineage. Despite losing all his Heart Demon Avatars in the East Continent, the Central Demon Lord decides to proceed with his plan to seize the Six Paths Child Plate and eliminate the Five Elements Sect. Meanwhile, Tu Ming, seeking revenge for past defeats, arrives in the East Continent, aided by a powerful portal, heading towards the Five Elements Sect and the Eastern Wilderness Qing Emperor.

Chen Mobai was still pondering the enigma of severing his connection with Ming Zun prior to his celestial ascension.

After all, he had received intel from Su Ziluo regarding an external ghost fetus of Ming Zun located beyond the East Continent.

This particular secret, however, was Ming Zun’s most guarded, known only to him. Thus, despite Chen Mobai's persistent inquiries through the Taixu MiaoMiao Palace over the years, no conclusive information had surfaced.

He contemplated the possibility of bequeathing this daunting task to his disciple, should all other avenues prove futile.

Yet, the decision of whether to entrust it to Zhuo Ming or Jiang Zongheng lingered.

Among his four disciples, these two alone held the potential for Divinity Transformation.

Liu Wenbo's cultivation potential was deemed limited, likely capping at the Nascent Soul stage.

Luo Yixuan, on the other hand, possessed suitable attributes. If she were to follow the established inheritance of the Tongyou Demon Sect, her path to Divinity Transformation might be less arduous than pursuing the Water Immortal Scripture. However, as his disciple, a defection to the Demon Path was strictly out of the question. Such an occurrence would tarnish his reputation as the Eastern Wilderness Qing Emperor, casting a shadow of improper tutelage that would be exceedingly difficult to dispel.

Internally, Chen Mobai leaned towards Jiang Zongheng. Zhuo Ming lacked the necessary aptitude for conflict, whereas Jiang Zongheng, having cultivated the Emperor’s Scroll, required the accumulation of merit. This made the eradication of demons and the defense of the Dao a natural fit for him.

But now, such concerns were rendered moot.

This was due to Tu Ming’s direct and unannounced arrival.

Following the refinement of the Haotian Mirror into the central component of the Sky Curtain Ground Network Formation, its capabilities extended beyond mere illumination of the surroundings with divine light. It could also operate in reverse, diligently surveying every inch of territory covered by the formation.

The very moment Tu Ming infiltrated the area, despite his swift efforts to conceal his aura, the divine skill known as Mingfu Zhi Men necessitated a passage through the Underworld, emerging into the Living World. The unavoidable clash between the Underworld’s Huangquan Yin Qi and the ambient spiritual energy of the Living World occurred at this transitional point.

Within the Sky Curtain Ground Network Formation, this ripple in energy was as glaringly obvious as the eruption of a Spirit Vein.

After utilizing the Haotian Mirror to ascertain the source of the disturbance, Chen Mobai deliberately withheld immediate action. He was keen to understand the motive behind Tu Ming’s audacious infiltration of the East Barbarians.

Recalling the recent arrival of a Heart Demon Avatar dispatched by the leader of the Central Demon Path, Chen Mobai harbored a strong suspicion of an underlying conspiracy.

Regardless, positioned within the Sky Curtain Ground Network Formation, he possessed the absolute power to obliterate Tu Ming at any given moment. Thus, after focusing the Haotian Mirror’s gaze, he commenced his observation.

To forestall any unforeseen complications, he wisely dispatched his Second Primeval Spirit as a precautionary measure.

Subsequently, under the unblinking surveillance of the Haotian Mirror, Tu Ming skillfully blended his Mingfu Zhi Men technique with the Shadow Escape Method, progressing towards the Eastern Wilderness. As he traversed near the Bright Mirror Immortal City, situated at the heart of the East Barbarians, Chen Mobai observed Tu Ming discreetly leaving a mark upon Bright Mirror Mountain.

Once Tu Ming had departed, Chen Mobai employed his True Body, utilizing Great Void Transference to investigate the enigmatic mark.

He discovered it bore a resemblance to the positional coordinates utilized in Void Teleportation.

Leveraging his profound expertise in matters of the void, he swiftly deciphered the underlying principles. It was deduced that this mark served as a navigational beacon for the transference of Mingfu Zhi Men.

With effortless precision, Chen Mobai altered the mark, re-linking it to the vicinity of Wandering Mountain.

Not long thereafter, Tu Ming reached the Eastern Wilderness and proceeded directly towards Northern Abyss City.

Just as Chen Mobai anticipated Tu Ming’s imminent entry into the city, the infiltrator unexpectedly halted. He gazed upon the imposing Immortal City before him, his eyes reflecting a mixture of astonishment and apprehension.

Even as a cultivator of Divinity Transformation, Tu Ming had never encountered a city meticulously planned and modernized to the extent of Northern Abyss City throughout his long existence.

Nevertheless, the renowned reputation of this Immortal City, coupled with the name of the Eastern Wilderness Qing Emperor, had reverberated across the Five Continents and Four Seas. Tu Ming himself had heard tales of it even while residing in the West Continent.

He was even aware that the city’s protective Mountain Protection Array likely attained the formidable sixth rank.

Consequently, despite possessing the extraordinary Mingfu Zhi Men divine skill, which offered an escape route at any juncture, he hesitated to breach its defenses recklessly.

However, bound by an ancient pact, Tu Ming could sense Su Ziluo’s presence within this very Immortal City.

If gaining entry was not an option, he resolved to compel her emergence.

With this objective in mind, Tu Ming bit the tip of his finger, drawing upon his own Essence Blood to perform the ritual of Void Talisman drawing. Upon its formation, the talisman manifested as a spectral, fanged ghoul’s head, trailing wisps of black and red smoke as it plunged into the earth, burrowing its way towards Su Ziluo’s location within Northern Abyss City.

Overseeing the development of his most crucial ghost fetus, Tu Ming maintained absolute dominion over Su Ziluo, encompassing her essence, energy, and spirit.

The 'Enslaving God and Controlling Spirit Talisman' served to activate a dormant imprint within Su Ziluo's soul, compelling her to move towards him against her will.

High upon North Abyss Mountain, Su Ziluo, engrossed in her studies within her Cave Dwelling, experienced a sudden jolt of comprehension.

Upon regaining her senses, she found herself inexplicably transported to a canyon on the Eastern Wilderness Plateau. A initial frown gave way to an expression of profound shock.

She had encountered such involuntary movements before.

However, after more than a century under Chen Mobai's tutelage, she had long since grown unaccustomed to this disquieting sensation of having one's life and death dictated by external forces.

Ming Zun!

Recognizing the cause, Su Ziluo shuddered, her gaze sweeping her surroundings, yet no one was present. Gritting her teeth, she channeled her Primordial True Qi, employing the Five Elements Escape Technique in a desperate bid to return to Northern Abyss City.

Yet, at that very instant, a spectral, ebony head materialized from her Sea of Knowledge within the Purple Mansion. It unleashed a chilling Netherworld Energy, which instantaneously shattered her Primordial True Qi, causing her entire being to fade and become translucent.

"Ah, I hadn't anticipated you would already achieve the Legal Body Nascent Soul stage. It's no wonder you could break free from the constraints of my Netherworld Scripture."
