Ye Xuan and the others discover that the strange area is an ancient land from the Immortal Ancient End. They explore a newly created small world within the chaos, which seems to be the domain of the mysterious creature they encountered earlier. Ye Xuan tests the corrosive liquid, theorizing it is the source of the creature's "curse" and its aggressive behavior.

A group of people followed behind the ghostly figure, with the Tree God and Chaos Ghost Fang, two Overlords, covering the rear, showing no fear at all.

Soon, under the guidance of the ghostly figure, the group of leaders arrived at the edge of a black abyss.

The entire black abyss was covered by an infinite corrosive liquid, which flowed within, making one’s scalp tingle just by looking at it.

Goosebumps all over!

"When I came here just now, there was the sound of screams coming from below."

The ghostly figure spoke slowly, its voice booming, with lingering echoes.

Its Dharma Form was slowly transforming, oscillating between a god and a ghost, half exuding divine majesty, half exuding ghostly aura.

"Let’s go down and take a look."

Ye Xuan leaped up, soared high into the air, and then directly rushed toward the abyss.

Numerous leaders of the Void Divine Realm followed closely behind Ye Xuan.

As for fear?

It doesn’t exist.

The Undying Night Emperor, an existence as miraculous as the ages.

Even during the Immortal Ancient Epoch, in the Ancient Immortal Realm, he would absolutely be a peerless Overlord.

Such an entity, even if his strength has not yet returned to its peak, still possesses endless trump cards.

As Ye Xuan soared high into the sky, the corrosive liquid attached to the abyss seemed to come alive, rushing toward Ye Xuan!

Buzz————

In the next moment, strange Dao Patterns appeared on Ye Xuan’s body surface, forming a floating shield of Mysterious Light.

Boom boom boom————

The corrosive liquid was rebounded upon touching the Mysterious Light shield, unable to come into contact with Ye Xuan at all.

It was evident that this corrosive liquid could not harm Ye Xuan’s Taoist Body.

As for the Tree God, Chaos Ghost Fang, and other leaders of the Void Divine Realm, they immediately transformed into their Void God forms, making them immune to any external interference.

They seemed as if they existed in another dimension, unaffected by the worldly influences here.

Ye Xuan rapidly descended, heading toward the bottom of the abyss at the fastest speed possible.

But this abyss seemed like a bottomless pit, with no end in sight.

Uncertain of how much time had passed, Ye Xuan vaguely heard a hoarse scream emanating from below.

"It’s him."

Almost instantly, Ye Xuan confirmed that the owner of this voice was the bizarre creature from before.

"Perhaps there’s still some consciousness left."

Ye Xuan accelerated.

This time, Ye Xuan directly employed the power of the Void Immortal Body, unimpeded.

After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

The scream echoed again, seemingly very distant.

But in the next moment, Ye Xuan landed on the ground, reaching the bottom of the abyss.

A rough estimate suggested that the abyss was at least a million zhang deep!

Ye Xuan’s Emperor Soul spread out, quickly locking onto the location of the bizarre creature.

At this moment, the corrosive liquid on the bizarre creature’s body was flowing rapidly, occasionally revealing gruesome wounds of flesh and blood.

Its entire body seemed to have decayed completely.

Just looking at it made one’s scalp tingle.

Ye Xuan stepped toward the bizarre creature, and with a wave of his hand, Dao Patterns flew toward it.

The corrosive liquid on the bizarre creature’s body seemed to sense a threat, rising immediately to confront the Dao Patterns.

Boom!

But just with one glance, they were suppressed by the Dao Patterns.

Subsequently, more and more Dao Patterns flew from Ye Xuan’s side, continuously suppressing the corrosive liquid on the bizarre creature’s body.

Moments later.

The bizarre creature revealed its true form for the first time.

Its whole body was made up of decaying flesh, with visible squirming viscera, rotting beyond recognition.

In some places, bones were even visible.

The bones were stained by the corrosive liquid, exuding a strange, deep black.

This creature seemed to have only a shred of vitality left.

The corrosive liquid, suppressed by Ye Xuan’s Dao Patterns, struggled to return to the bizarre creature’s body but to no avail.

"Guard the surroundings."

At Ye Xuan’s command, Kui Yuan, Huo Dou, Ba Snake, and twelve other leaders of the Void Divine Realm each took a position to guard a direction.

The Tree God and Chaos Ghost Fang followed closely behind Ye Xuan, preventing unexpected events.

Ye Xuan approached the bizarre creature again.

The two were only three steps apart.

Ye Xuan did not get any closer, squinting his eyes as he looked at the bizarre creature lying on the ground, on the brink of death.

Because, although this bizarre creature seemed near death, that wisp of vitality was extremely tenacious.

Especially the bone at its brow, emitting a shimmering Immortal Light, brilliant and bright.

It was a segment of Immortal Bone!

Moreover, it was an Immortal Bone growing at the brow, capable of nurturing Heaven and Earth Divine Power, and when perfected, it would be more terrifying than the Great Emperor Immortal Skill.

From this, it could be seen that this bizarre creature was certainly not an ordinary being in the past.

The bizarre creature lay on the ground, breathing out more than it was breathing in.

It supported itself to sit up, even shaking off two pieces of rotten flesh, a chilling sight to behold.

With piercing eyes, it stared at Ye Xuan, speaking weakly in an ancient language: "You actually found this place..."

Ye Xuan looked at the creature, squinted his eyes, and said: "If you had trusted me, you wouldn’t have had to endure such suffering."

The creature laughed.

The flesh on its face trembled as if it might fall off.

Fortunately, the illumination of the Immortal Bone allowed it to withstand the pressure.

Its eyes glinted with ridicule.

Gazing at Ye Xuan, it spoke faintly: "You simply don’t understand the terrors of these curses."

Ye Xuan said nothing, but instead, withdrew the Dao Patterns on his arm.

Then, Ye Xuan’s right hand rose.

Whoosh!

In the next moment, corrosive liquid rushed toward Ye Xuan from nearby, wrapping around his arm and starting to gnaw at it.

Witnessing this scene, the bizarre creature’s gaze noticeably changed.

Seeing Ye Xuan endure it all without changing his expression filled the creature’s eyes with shock.

"Is that all?"

Ye Xuan shook off the corrosive liquid, speaking indifferently.

The bizarre creature stared at Ye Xuan as if seeing a monster, "Don’t you feel pain?"

Ye Xuan smiled calmly: "Having endured experiences far more painful than this, naturally it’s not painful."

This time, the bizarre creature wavered.

After a moment of contemplation, the creature asked softly: "How goes the battle with the Dou Tian Divine Domain now?"

Ye Xuan squinted slightly, his smile undiminished.

This guy was indeed someone left from the Immortal Ancient battle, and the other party clearly didn’t know that the Ancient Immortal Realm no longer existed!

Ye Xuan shook his head and said: "We didn’t win."

The bizarre creature’s eyes darkened, but then it smiled self-deprecatingly: "Indeed, even if Hong Yao Immortal Emperor personally ascended the Emperor Pass Great Wall, it couldn’t stop those guys."

"These fanatics in the Dou Tian Divine Domain are really terrifying; they can actually summon the Heavenly Sea and suppress Hong Yao Immortal Emperor, otherwise, with the ability of Hong Yao Immortal Emperor, no matter how many Dou Tian kings they had, they wouldn’t have been able to contend!"

"By the way, who are you?"

The bizarre creature scrutinized Ye Xuan.

Ye Xuan pondered the creature’s words, speaking slowly and steadily: "My name is Ye Xuan, or you can call me... the Undying Night Emperor."

"Ye Xuan?"

"The Undying Night Emperor?"

The bizarre creature appeared somewhat bewildered, not recognizing the name.

Ye Xuan smiled calmly: "Just continue."
