Ye Xuan unleashes his Quasi-Emperor Realm aura and clashes with the dried-corpse old man within the Divine Palace. Despite the old man's powerful eye beam and sealed space technique, Ye Xuan's overwhelming strength and decisive strikes shatter his defenses, leaving him battered and defeated.

This mummified elder’s strength is exceptionally formidable, once at the same level as the Lord of Death, the Nine Netherworld Phoenix.

His physical body is also quite terrifying.

But now, Emperor Ye’s physique is the most terrifying existence.

It is the most invincible existence.

The mummified elder holding on to this extent is already quite impressive.

But.

That’s all it is.

Only means that when being beaten, he can endure a bit longer.

Bam bam bam!

Sound after sound of dull thuds.

The mummified elder has been beaten into unconsciousness, completely losing awareness.

The solitary eye slowly closes, with bright blood still continuously flowing.

This is the only place bleeding on the mummified elder.

But thinking it through, that is expected, the mummified elder now cannot bleed anymore.

After all, he’s dried up this much.

A long time passes.

Emperor Ye no longer continues to beat the mummified elder, stopping.

Only this.

Emperor Ye grinned.

Then Emperor Ye turned to the Mortal Emperor’s corpse, seemingly saying, "Disciple, see clearly how I avenge you as your master."

Emperor Ye withdrew his gaze, looking toward a place in the Divine Palace.

That was where the mummified elder previously sat cross-legged.

At this moment.

An astonishing aura still lingers at that place.

A force faintly transmits outward from there.

It is the breath of the Origin Power.

Emperor Ye squatted down, fixing his gaze on that spot, squinting his eyes.

No wonder this mummified elder maintains such robust vitality and strength despite being unable to absorb the Origin Power into his body.

It is because of this...

Emperor Ye reached out and gently touched.

Buzz!

A ripple unfolded.

Streams of Origin Power, like trickling streams, wound up along Emperor Ye’s fingertips.

Taichu Hongmeng Primordial Dao Power began absorbing and refining at this moment, devouring these streams of Origin Power.

Emperor Ye carefully realized for a moment, discovering this power is not rootless, but has a substantial source.

Regarding the source’s other end, Emperor Ye does not know.

But Emperor Ye’s analysis is that it comes from either Dou Tian Divine Domain or the Main World of Black Sky Ancient Netherworld.

Comparatively, the latter is more likely.

After all, Dou Tian Divine Domain does not belong to All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds, they are unable to transmit such power here.

If they indeed had such means, the battle back then wouldn’t have been so intensely fought.

After all, the overall strength of Dou Tian Divine Domain is certainly greater than that of Ancient Immortal Realm.

This is beyond doubt.

Just because that battle back then, for Dou Tian Divine Domain, belonged to fighting in a foreign land, many drawbacks existed, so ultimately resulting in mutual destruction is understandable.

This point, Emperor Ye is also very clear.

Especially at the end of the Emperor Road amidst chaos, from Duomu Clan’s mouth, it is known Dou Tian Divine Domain did not send many people over here back then.

From this matter, it can be seen that Dou Tian Divine Domain has great limitations here.

It really seems like a situation of being beyond one’s reach.

Thus this source at present, only a small likelihood comes from Dou Tian Divine Domain.

A larger possibility is from the Main World of Black Sky Ancient Netherworld.

And if it’s this, it also needs to be noted carefully.

If Black Sky Ancient Netherworld can fully grasp the Origin Power of Dou Tian Divine Domain, then it proves their connection with Dou Tian Divine Domain has reached a terrifying degree.

This is despairing for the entire All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds.

The most terrifying thing is, until now, besides Emperor Ye and Zhou Youwei, no one else knows about this.

Perhaps only when Black Sky Ancient Netherworld truly invades, will they realize.

Of course, Emperor Ye will not let such a thing happen.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t be here.

Emperor Ye absorbed some of that power, then brought the Mortal Emperor’s corpse to the source, placing it on top.

Then covered the Mortal Emperor’s corpse entirely with Taichu Hongmeng Primordial Dao Power.

Using Taichu Hongmeng Primordial Dao Power as the guide, drawing that power onto the Earth Flipping Corpse.

Emperor Ye’s expression gradually turned solemn.

He planned to utilize this power to resurrect the Mortal Emperor.

But as time passed.

Emperor Ye couldn’t conceal his disappointment.

It failed.

Could not achieve it.

The Mortal Emperor has died, the True Spirit doesn’t exist, resurrection is impossible.

Ah...

Emperor Ye internally sighed.

Human strength ultimately has limits.

Even as the Undying Night Emperor, there are things he cannot accomplish.

Red Sparrow’s resurrection or Emperor of Painting’s revival both inherently contain a necessary condition.

Red Sparrow still retains the True Spirit.

Emperor of Painting not only has the True Spirit but also has a corpse that might still revive when buried in Heavenly Pond Graveyard.

But now with the Mortal Emperor, only the corpse remains, without the True Spirit.

This makes resurrection impossible.

Finally, Emperor Ye gave up the idea of resurrecting the Mortal Emperor, moving it aside.

Emperor Ye’s gaze once again fell upon the mummified elder, with eyes dark and unpredictable.

After a moment, Ye Xuan’s Emperor Soul moved, forcefully breaking into the mummified elder’s Sea of Consciousness.

Upon entering this place, Emperor Ye felt like plunging into an abyss.

This guy’s Sea of Consciousness is unusual, like an abyss or a prison.

No wonder the power released by the solitary eye contains a soul-destroying terrifying force.

This relates to the mummified elder’s Soul Power.

Extremely strong.

Of course.

Compared to Emperor Ye’s Emperor Soul, there is still a gap.

Ye Xuan’s Emperor Soul ravaged the mummified elder’s Sea of Consciousness, searching for the mummified elder’s Divine Soul.

But this guy’s Sea of Consciousness is terrifying, Emperor Ye searched for a long time to find it.

To Emperor Ye’s surprise, this guy’s Divine Soul also manifested in a solitary eye state.

Now it was merely slightly open.

This indicates the mummified elder’s Soul Power continuously declines.

When completely closed, the mummified elder will thoroughly die.

Yet it must be said, this guy’s Life Force is incredibly amazing. Clearly beaten half to death by Emperor Ye, his fate entirely severed, yet he is not dead.

Emperor Ye didn’t waste words, beginning to carve a unique Soul Seal.

Against such a character, ordinary Soul Seals are evidently useless and will be detected; the best way is to forge a new, dedicated Soul Seal specifically for this person.

This Soul Seal can perfectly blend with the other’s Divine Soul.

As long as Emperor Ye does not activate the Soul Seal’s power, the other will never sense the Soul Seal’s existence.

Emperor Ye hasn’t encountered a need for such a unique Soul Seal in a long time.

Though Emperor Ye very much wants to directly eliminate the mummified elder.

Yet he is very clear internally.

Not killing is more useful than killing.

Emperor Ye suppressed the hatred in his heart, concentrating on drawing the Soul Seal.

What Emperor Ye did not know was that beside him, the Mortal Emperor’s corpse, unnoticed, had already opened its eyes.

Those ghastly eyes fiercely stared at Emperor Ye’s back, harboring a hidden murderous intent.

"Kid, you’re still too naive in the end..."

The Mortal Emperor’s corpse murmured softly, audible only to itself.

The Mortal Emperor’s corpse slowly stood up, twisting its neck: "Changing bodies feels comfortable..."
