Xu Zimei confronted an intelligent old man in a Deceit Domain, learning that the rules governing the anomalies were from the New Universe and designed to kill explorers. The old man, revealed to be Toad Spirit, forcibly absorbed the other anomalies and attacked Xu Zimei, who retaliated by shattering the domain and incapacitating everyone.

As the tongue rolled, an enormous gust of underworld wind swept across the sky.

The tongue was at least tens of thousands of meters long.

When it extended, the entire world was cast in the shadow of the tongue.

With a gentle roll,

it was like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, devouring Xu Zimei.

Xu Zimei frowned slightly, stepping back just in time to avoid the tongue's attack.

However, the Toad Spirit seemed to have anticipated this.

Laughing loudly, he said, "You can't escape. In this Deceit Domain, I am the god of everything. How can you break free?"

In the next moment, just like a clone,

the tongue started transforming.

Countless tongues spewed from his mouth, and under the whistling dark wind, shadows of tongues filled the entire world.

Leaving no space for Xu Zimei to evade.

It seemed wherever he went, the tongue's swallowing reach could cover him.

At this moment, the tongue swept over like an upheaval ocean wave, from the tongue root to the tip, towering at least ten thousand meters high.

Subsequently, Xu Zimei's figure was swept into it.

And then the Toad Mirror retracted its tongue, engulfing him into its secretive belly.

Throughout this process, Xu Zimei did not struggle much.

When brought into the Toad Mirror's belly, Xu Zimei discovered that within its belly lay a mysterious realm.

Countless acid rain poured down like a vast waterfall from above.

This acid rain was extremely corrosive, any contact left skin and flesh in tatters.

If one's entire body submerged into the acid rain, even the Divine Soul and body would face complete annihilation.

This was the Toad Mirror's means.

Its tongue brings you into its belly.

It seems it hasn't killed you.

But within the belly, lies a deadlock.

After entering, the acid rain seems conscious, flowing toward Xu Zimei.

At this moment, within the acid rain, many shadowy souls begin to form, advancing toward Xu Zimei.

These shadowy souls were once beings that perished in the Toad Spirit's belly.

Now materialized, they aim to completely destroy Xu Zimei.

Xu Zimei felt quite regretful.

The reason he didn't resist entering the Toad Spirit's belly,

was to see how these eerie forces originated.

He wanted to understand the source power of these shadowy ghosts.

After all, every creature in this world has its unique characteristic.

Even the Living Dead encountered before by Xu Zimei,

had energy sustaining its existence.

Xu Zimei wanted to study these things, but after entering the belly, aside from acid rain, there was nothing else.

He was still unable to ascertain the conditions for eerie existence.

At this thought, he was no longer willing to wait any longer.

Suddenly, from all around Xu Zimei, boundless Blade Intent burst forth.

The sharp Blade Qi, as if breaking through heaven and earth, resembled a formidable long blade.

The Blade Qi became one with the blade, the blade cut down gods and souls.

But in the outside world, the Toad Spirit, thinking he had devoured Xu Zimei, believed Xia Zimei was surely dead.

He began jumping around incessantly, celebrating.

His actions were quite comical.

While chanting persistently,

"Once I kill him, this Toad can live again and be reborn."

"At that time, from the Old Universe to the New Universe, who can match this Toad's Longevity."

But as the Toad Spirit kept jumping, suddenly, his body stiffened.

The onlookers, Zhou Yanjun and others, were quietly whispering.

"This fellow is so strange!"

"Could it be that Taoist Friend Xu just died like that?"

"It shouldn't be, Taoist Friend Xu didn't resist at all, is this eerie force truly so powerful?"

The Two-headed Bear and You Jin seemed doubtful and uncertain.

However, Qiu Baiyin and Zhou Yanjun remained quite calm.

"It seems trouble is coming."

Qiu Baiyin sighed.

For the King's Collection, he had planned for so long.

He even sought out new arrivals to the Heavenly Burial Grounds, avoiding local people.

Seeking stability.

But to his dismay, the previous Qingsong Daoist, and now Xu Zimei.

Each stirred up more trouble than the last.

At this time, from the Toad Spirit's surface, beams of light began penetrating out.

These beams erupted from all over its body.

As if cracks were beginning to show across its entire form.

"How could this happen?"

"How could this happen?"

The Toad Spirit stood dumbfounded, continually looking at its body surface.

Attempting to make amends.

But the cracks on its body multiplied, until eventually, with a "boom",

A violent explosion occurred.

The Toad Spirit's body exploded into a scattering mass.

Its physical form annihilated, while Xu Zimei slowly emerged from within.

He looked around.

It appeared the Toad Spirit wasn't dead.

Instead, a black shadowy figure floated in the void.

This shadow was like a Divine Soul, yet essentially different from it.

It moved around like a gas, laughing wildly.

"Eerie forces in the Heavenly Burial Grounds can't be killed, so stop dreaming."

The Toad Spirit seemed immensely smug.

Even though its physical form was destroyed, it remained invincible.

This is why eerie forces evoke such dread.

They are unkillable, regardless of your methods.

At this moment, Xu Zimei frowned slightly.

He drew his blade, striking directly at the Toad Spirit's shadowy form.

This strike came suddenly like lightning, astonishingly fast.

Even the Toad Spirit couldn't react.

When the Blade Qi cleaved, it instantly split the Toad Spirit in two.

Yet in a flash, the Toad Spirit restored itself.

Continuing to laugh loudly.

"Stop wasting effort. You can't kill me."

"Your struggle is futile."

"Become my nourishment within this Deceit Domain, help me ascend the celestial ladder."

As the Toad Spirit spoke, Zhou Yanjun outside began to speak.

He replied, "Taoist Friend, this is a Dead Soul. Using your New Universe methods, you cannot kill it."

"In the Old Universe, people rely on Contemplation, visualizing all things. This Dead Soul is formed from the contemplation of deceased entities."

"Killing it is useless, you must find its contemplative essence."

Zhou Yanjun's words caused the Toad Spirit's face to change dramatically.

"Keep quiet!"

It roared angrily at Zhou Yanjun.

Filled with panic in its demeanor.

"Who are you, what do you know?"

Zhou Yanjun ignored it, casting his gaze towards Xu Zimei.

He continued speaking.

"I have a Soul Seeking Chapter that could help you."

Then Zhou Yanjun began writing in the void with his hands.

Brilliant golden light emerged from his fingertips.

Using his finger as a pen, he began writing.

Very quickly, the world shone with golden light, like a sea of golden clouds.

"Stop, stop!"

The Toad Spirit was thoroughly frantic.

Even breaking down.

It roared and charged at Zhou Yanjun, but mid-way was intercepted by Xu Zimei.
