The person beside the King Of The Underworld bore a forty to fifty percent resemblance to the current temple master of Taixu Temple, Yan Nanlai.
This person was one of the four ancient heroes of Taixu Temple, the ancestor of Yan Nanlai, and the second temple master of Taixu Temple, Yan Xinghe.
In ancient times, he and the King Of The Underworld perished together, sending the King Of The Underworld into the world of the dead, but at the same time, he himself perished.
Everyone thought that the King Of The Underworld had also perished back then, and it was naturally impossible for him to refine Yan Xinghe into an Evil Soul and store it in the Underworld Dao Fruit of Life and Death. As a result, after the King Of The Underworld was reborn, no one realized that he actually had such a powerful trump card.
To be able to come back from the dead, the King Of The Underworld could be said to have great achievements. His understanding of the Dao of Samsara and Life and Death made him the first person in the history of Divine Land, and everyone was amazed.
However, the King Of The Underworld's Mystique, Dharmic powers, and scheming methods were well hidden, and it was beyond many people's imagination.
Yan Xinghe was the second temple master of Taixu Temple in history. In the era after Wen Chiyang perished, he was one of the top figures in Divine Land.
Today, after a long time, his reputation surpassed Wen Chiyang, Yuehua Tian, and Huang Chen. In this era, he was the most famous of the four ancient heroes of Taixu Temple, and his life was the most widely known.
Until now, many of the policies and thoughts of Taixu Temple could be traced back to the era of Yan Xinghe. His influence on Taixu Temple was among the best among all the temple masters.
But now, the King Of The Underworld had refined such a legendary figure of the Immortal Dao into an evil soul. If news of this spread, it would shake the entire Divine Land. It would become the greatest stain and humiliation in the history of Taixu Temple, and the King Of The Underworld would become the human powerhouse that Taixu Temple was most hostile to.
Although King Yanluo and the others were cheering loudly behind him, and although things were going according to his plan, the King Of The Underworld's gaze remained calm.
He knew very well that he hadn't truly succeeded yet, and this opportunity didn't come easily.
After many years of forbearance, they had purposely delivered themselves to the Netherworld Sea and suffered heavy losses from Xuanmen Tianzong and Taixu Temple. The Underworld Hall's forces were wiped out on a large scale and suffered heavy losses.
All of this was to make the Divine Land feel that he was no longer a threat, so that they could prepare for the war between the two worlds with the Demon Clan in peace.
Although he hadn't expected that Taixu Temple and the Haotian Mirror would enter the Xuan Sea of their own accord, the King Of The Underworld had always believed that his opportunity would only appear during the war between the two worlds.
If there wasn't an opportunity, he would continue to lie low and endure. But when the opportunity presented itself, he wouldn't miss it.
Just like now.
If he hadn't been fighting against the Dragon Clan powerhouses and the Xuan Sea, even with Yan Xinghe's evil soul, it wouldn't have been easy to shake the Haotian Mirror.
Similarly, if he hadn't been fighting against the Haotian Mirror and the Taixu Temple powerhouses, his long banner wouldn't have been able to communicate with the Dragon Clan powerhouses and the Xuan Sea.
But at this moment, he had a chance to get his hands on the Haotian Mirror.
However, before the dust settled, the King Of The Underworld naturally wouldn't be too happy.
With the help of a special ritual and treasure, he and Yan Xinghe didn't need to enter the Xuan Sea to shake the Haotian Mirror. If everything went smoothly, after they controlled the Haotian Mirror, they could even use the ritual to suck the Haotian Mirror out of the Xuan Sea.
During this process, the Yuan Dragon King and the other Dragon Clan powerhouses would most likely condone it. After all, if the Haotian Mirror was shaken, they could break through the Taixu Temple's defensive line faster.
However, after the defensive line of the Taixu Temple was completely destroyed, the Yuan Dragon King naturally wouldn't let the King Of The Underworld suck the Haotian Mirror out of the Xuan Sea. At that time, the pressure that the King Of The Underworld and Yan Xinghe had to face from the Xuan Sea would definitely increase greatly. The Yuan Dragon King might even temporarily put aside the people of the Taixu Temple, whose abilities were greatly reduced, to deal with the King Of The Underworld first.
That would be the most difficult moment of the King Of The Underworld's entire operation. Success or failure would be decided in an instant. Even with the King Of The Underworld's deep foresight, he didn't dare to say he was completely confident.
On the other side, Lin Feng had rushed to White Cloud Mountain to reinforce it. Even though he was in a stalemate with the Youdu Race, the situation of the battle was ever-changing. An unexpected change could happen at any time, and this made the King Of The Underworld very wary.
However, to the King Of The Underworld, the opportunity in front of him was already good enough.
He held the banner with one hand and patted Yan Xinghe beside him with the other. He smiled and said, "Come, let's work hard for you to regain control of the Haotian Mirror."
Yan Xinghe was expressionless and didn't say a word. The King Of The Underworld didn't mind either. With a thought, the gray dimensional world started to gradually collapse under the effects of the ritual. Meanwhile, the power of the black altar that was three levels tall under his feet became more and more vigorous.
Far away in the void, Yan Nanlai, Dao Venerable Xuan One, Kuang Heng, and the rest of the strong practitioners of the Taixu Temple all had extremely grim expressions.
In the Xuan Sea, Dao Venerable Tai One and the rest were facing the pressure of the dragon race's Xuan Sea. They were already forced into a defensive state, and now that the King Of The Underworld was taking drastic measures, the situation was quickly heading towards collapse.
No matter if the King Of The Underworld succeeded or if the dragon race succeeded, it would undoubtedly be a disaster for the Taixu Temple and the current situation of the war between the two worlds.
However, what made them helpless was that Yan Nanlai and the rest were also having trouble protecting themselves. Even though Lin Feng was fighting against Sun Mirage and Youdu, under the attacks of the other strong practitioners of Youdu, everyone in the Taixu Temple was already surrounded by danger.
Lin Feng looked at everyone in the Taixu Temple whose magic power and aura were shaking unstably. Even though he didn't understand what was going on, he could feel that their consciousness had received a huge blow.
He frowned and suddenly transmitted his voice to ask, "What's going on?"
Yan Nanlai had narrowly avoided Jing Yan's attack and almost had his Great Void Engraving shattered. After muttering to himself for a moment, he replied solemnly, "The King Of The Underworld suddenly bared his fangs and shook the Haotian Mirror. The situation is dire."
"The King Of The Underworld has such an ability?" Lin Feng was slightly stunned when he heard what Yan Nanlai said. His mind turned, and he suddenly recalled how Xia Huang's evil soul had shaken Ding of Shenzhou back then in the netherworld sea.
Before this, he already had his suspicions and suspected that the King Of The Underworld had other plans. Now that he connected all the clues together, he instantly understood the cause and effect of the matter.
"He really knows how to seize the opportunity …" Lin Feng's gaze flickered, and his gaze swept across the battlefield where Yan Nanlai and the rest were. After pondering for a moment, he shook his head.
He temporarily stopped controlling the Primordial Golden Lamp and the fingers on his left hand gently moved in the air. He outlined a simple yet profound formation.
Lin Feng stretched out his palm and directly stretched his hand into the formation.
The void in the center of the formation rippled like water. Lin Feng Silently said, "Little Lin, give me that ring."
"Yes, Master." Wang Lin's voice came from the formation. In the next instant, Lin Feng withdrew his palm from the formation, and a purple light spot appeared in his palm. It was something that looked like a ring, and its surface was engraved with complicated markings.
Lin Feng examined the ring in detail and shook his head slowly. "If I can preserve it, I can study it in detail in the future. For now, I can only use it roughly. I hope it's not something that can only be used once."
Because he was distracted, Sun Mirage Youdu's attacks became more and more urgent. As a result, the situation gradually became disadvantageous to Lin Feng.
However, Lin Feng temporarily ignored the situation on his side. With a thought, the ring flew from his palm. Then, on the true spirit runes in the depths of Lin Feng's Void Return body, a purple glow that came from the same source as the ring appeared. The purple light landed on the ring, and it trembled slightly before transforming into a beam of flowing light and flying out.
The ring didn't aim at Sun Mirage Youdu. Instead, it flew towards the battlefield far away. Its target was Hollow Plains Youdu, who was suppressing Dao Venerable Xuan Yi and Taixu Temple!
Hollow Plains Youdu had trapped Dao Venerable Xuan Yi and Taixu Temple. If it wasn't to prevent Dao Venerable Xuan Yi from using the Dharma Ending Calamity to injure Jing Yan Youdu and the other Youdu beasts that hadn't completed their first calamity, his advantage would be even greater. Even so, Dao Venerable Xuan Yi was already in a difficult situation.
The power of the Youdu Race was displayed to its fullest at this moment.
But the instant the purple light appeared, all the strong practitioners of Youdu, including Kongyuan and Youdu, were instantly stunned. They were astonished.
The purple light transformed into a halo that was like a ring. It wrapped itself around one of Hollow Plains Youdu's claws. The action looked extremely ordinary, but the powerful Youdu Beast couldn't dodge or resist it. It could only let the halo wrap itself around it.
The three long horns on Hollow Plains Youdu's head burst forth with dazzling light, and the terrifying power of Youdu's Ethereal Splendor shook the void continuously.
However, it was strange. After being wrapped by the small halo, the Great Demon of the Dharma Ending Great Demon, which was even stronger than the Great Sage and Kunlong King, instantly became dispirited. The demon power of its divine arts rapidly weakened.
Sun Mirage Youdu was astonished when he saw this. A rare flash of anger appeared in his usually calm gaze. "Heavenly Sea Emperor's ring?!"
Hollow Plains Youdu let out a heaven-shaking roar, but he couldn't stop his body from weakening.
The ring that looked extremely ordinary in the past displayed astonishing power when facing the strong practitioners of Youdu.
The white Ethereal Splendor of Youdu gradually dispersed, and Dao Venerable Xuan Yi and Taixu Temple rushed out from within.
However, before he could do anything, he heard a low growl. "Unparalleled Youdu Splendor!"
A terrifying beam of golden light shot straight over, and Dao Venerable Xuan Yi hurriedly stopped in his tracks. He unleashed the Great Void Mysterious Light to reinforce the Great Void Wonderland that Taixu Temple had transformed into, blocking the Unparalleled Youdu Splendor of Youdu from Green Crest Youdu.
The Great Void Wonderland that was like a kingdom of gods was pushed back continuously by the golden light, and the Great Void Mysterious Light dissipated.
Even though the sudden change in the situation caught all the strong practitioners of Youdu off guard, Green Crest Youdu reacted extremely quickly. He immediately switched with Hollow Plains Youdu to fight with Dao Venerable Xuan Yi.
Without any communication, Jing Yan Youdu also abandoned Yan Nanlai and switched his attacks to the Supreme Void Yin Yang Great Formation. Meanwhile, the other two Youdu Beasts that were in the first tribulation period helped Jing Yan Youdu to hold Yan Nanlai back.
The great demons of Youdu almost instantly stabilized the situation of the battle, minimizing the negative effects of Hollow Plains Youdu suddenly losing his battle power.
However, the effects of Hollow Plains Youdu losing his battle power were quickly shown. Green Crest Youdu's abilities were no inferior to Hollow Plains Youdu's, and he still managed to force Dao Venerable Xuan Yi back. However, Jing Yan Youdu and the other two great demons that were in the first tribulation period found it hard to suppress the Supreme Void Yin Yang Great Formation and Yan Nanlai.
Yan Nanlai's body flashed, and he transformed into a white cloud that entered the Supreme Void Yin Yang Great Formation.
The moment he entered, he stared at Kuang Heng and said, "Senior Brother Kuang, send me away from this battlefield. I will execute the Curse of Blood Soul Tranquility. We can't let the King Of The Underworld succeed."
