The deeper they went into the Land of tranquil stream, the more they could feel the terrifying aura of the Nine Underworlds.
Yan Zhaoge, the Brocade Emperor and the Encompassing Emperor were naturally fine.
Even with Meng Wan's cultivation, she was no longer able to maintain her foothold. After being corroded by the power of the Netherworld, her mind would gradually go haywire.
Even if one's heart was firm, they were not emotionless and desireless people. They would still be affected.
It was all thanks to the jade pendant that the Brocade Emperor had given her to protect her, allowing her to clear her heart and focus her mind that she was able to continue walking.
Yan Zhaoge and the others weren't in the mood to deal with the Spirits here, and those Spirits were also unable to pose any threat to them as they simply swept past them.
Following the traces left behind by Feng Yunsheng, the group moved forward with a goal in mind, and their efficiency was much higher.
After continuing walking like this for a few days, Yan Zhaoge and the others instead slowed down.
Everyone's expression became solemn as they stared at the void in front of them.
They had reached the edge of the Land of Tranquil Stream. If they went further, they would be close to the source of the void erosion, which was the connection with the Nine Serenities.
Feng Yunsheng's footsteps seemed to continue forward.
After looking around for a while, Yan Zhaoge did not find any other clues.
It seemed like the only choice was to continue forward.
The Encompassing Emperor asked slowly, "When this Little Friend Feng left Broad Creed Mountain for adventuring outside, did he bring along the Extreme Yin Crown?"
He now already knew that Feng Yunsheng was the person of Broad Creed Mountain who wielded the Extreme Yin Crown.
"The Extreme Yin Crown has always been controlled by my wife," Yan Zhaoge answered.
At the side, Meng Wan's expression was calm as usual. The outcome of the fateful battle with Feng Yunsheng in the past had allowed her to completely let go of her obsession in this aspect.
The Senluo Emperor muttered to himself, "I wonder if Little Friend Feng has reached the Seeing Divinity Martial Saint realm."
Although there were some traces left by Feng Yunsheng along the way, due to the erosion of time, there were no longer any details to speak of. It was difficult to determine Feng Yunsheng's current cultivation, strength, and state of mind.
"If senior apprentice-sister Feng successfully breaks through space and sees true Divinity, she would be able to unleash the full power of the Extreme Yin Crown for a short period of time," Meng Wan was also a Maiden of Extreme Yin, having once wielded the Extreme Yin Crown for many years as she was extremely clear on this.
It was unknown how the Exalted Lunar Luminary had forged this Sacred Artifact, such that it was different from other Sacred Artifacts.
Yan Zhaoge said mildly, "While my wife has the intention of tempering herself, this matter concerns the Nine Underworlds. She definitely understands the gravity of it and will not recklessly take the risk."
Yan Zhaoge knew what the Encompassing Emperor was worried about.
If she could fully exert the power of the Extreme Yin Crown, not only would Feng Yunsheng be able to protect herself, she would also be able to more effectively resist the encroachment of the Nine Underworlds' devilish will, stabilising her mental state.
The Extreme Yin Crown was a Sacred Artifact on the same level as the Extreme Yang Seal, its might standing at the peak of the mortal realm.
As long as she did not encounter a Great Devil that was equivalent to a Dao Sect's Immortal Realm expert, Feng Yunsheng would not be in too much danger even if she entered the Nine Underworlds.
On the contrary, if one had not reached the Seeing Divinity stage and was unable to fully wield the power of the Extreme Yin Crown, even if Feng Yunsheng could wield a portion of the Extreme Yin Crown's power, recklessly venturing deep into the Nine Underworlds would be hard to predict.
Especially if she was still in the Merging Avatar Martial Saint Realm and had been bewitched by the Nine Underworlds, which was why she had entered this place, the nature of the matter would be different.
This time, they had to make a new plan for their search.
However, since he had already come here, Yan Zhaoge naturally wouldn't just let the matter rest.
"We should still go in and search for him," The Brocade Emperor said now, "Perhaps Little Friend Feng is in need of our help right now?"
The Encompassing Emperor nodded, "Let's go."
The group of people continued forward, and the soul-stirring call began to ring in their ears, getting louder and louder until it was almost deafening.
The gloomy light in front of him began to gradually disperse. Black fog filled the air, faintly flashing with an evil and ferocious blood-red luster.
This was no longer the crevice to the Nine Underworlds as seen in the Eight Extremities World. Instead, it resembled a boundless sea of bitterness, directly facing the Nine Underworlds.
"There's something strange about this place. Although the devilish qi of the Nine Underworlds is also corroding the void, it's not convenient." The Brocade Emperor glanced at it before saying slowly, "It seems like some sort of existence is interfering with the Nine Underworlds' corrosion of space."
The Encompassing Emperor shook his head after observing for a moment, "It's related to Grand Void Spatial Thunder, but it's not just Grand Void Spatial Thunder."
The group of people took the initiative to move forward and finally entered the vast black fog.
The moment he took that step, he felt like he was in a different world.
It was not the feeling of going from the Eight Extremities World to the Vast Ocean World, to the Floating Life World or from the Eight Extremities World to the World beyond Worlds.
Instead, he felt as if he had become a different kind of life, a different form of life.
It was similar to the death of the physical body and the soul leaving the body, turning from a human to a ghost.
The entire universe was barren and wild.
After entering, let alone Meng Wan, even Yan Zhaoge felt slightly uncomfortable.
Previously, when he had faced the invasion of the devilish qi of the Nine Underworlds, he had been in another world at the end of the day. Now that he was truly within the Nine Underworlds, that bewitching force was more than a hundredfold stronger?
Yan Zhaoge even felt that the Faceless Devilish Scripture that he had only ever used as a reference and never truly cultivated in seemed to have a life of its own.
Relying on the power of the Nine Underworlds, the devilish scriptures in his memories vaguely seemed to form a seed of their own, taking root and germinating within Yan Zhaoge's soul.
When everything had developed and grown strong, it would be time for them to take over.
Besides the Faceless Devilish Scripture, there were many other devilish arts that seemed to be automatically drawing in devilish qi, forming numerous devils.
It was just that they were not as intense as the Faceless Devilish Scripture.
"The Nine Underworlds is indeed extraordinary. I wonder how Yunsheng is doing now," Yan Zhaoge calmed his mind, silently circulating his profound art as he suppressed and cleanly eliminated the devils one by one.
He paid attention to the Brocade Emperor's situation.
The Brocade Emperor's current state could be said to be extremely easy for the Nine Underworlds to exploit.
While the current him might still be flawless physically, the same could not be said for his soul and thoughts.
The Encompassing Emperor had the same thoughts as Yan Zhaoge. The reason he had come along on this trip was to guard against such latent dangers.
The Brocade Emperor was as per normal as he seemed completely oblivious to it. He also seemed not to notice the attention of Yan Zhaoge and the Encompassing Emperor at all.
He simply continued searching for the clues left behind by Feng Yunsheng while also worrying about Meng Wan.
They each harbored their own thoughts as they continued to advance in this world where no one should exist.
The aura of a living person instantly drew the attention of numerous devils.
Still, the devils that appeared nearby were merely equivalent to human Martial Saints at most as they were naturally unable to obstruct the footsteps of Yan Zhaoge and the others.
Still, not long after they had entered, Yan Zhaoge and the others suddenly felt the devilish qi and baleful qi in the surroundings seemingly gradually diminishing.
They exchanged glances, "There is indeed a unique existence here that is interfering with the Nine Underworlds' region and corroding the surrounding extradimensional space."
Yan Zhaoge and the others immediately identified their direction, heading towards where the devilish qi and baleful qi were weakening.
As they approached, the devilish qi and baleful qi grew weaker and weaker.
Yet, there was a sharp chill that was growing stronger and stronger.
Yan Zhaoge, the Encompassing Emperor and the Brocade Emperor exchanged looks as they simultaneously exclaimed, "Sword-intent?"
