Chen Chuhua did not stop the Underworld Lord from escaping. Instead, he struck out with his palm and clashed with Heavenly Monarch Ling Yang.
Then, she looked at the Heavenly Phoenix.
Ji Zhong and the Heavenly Phoenix were frowning as they hovered in the universe without moving.
They had no intention of revenge even when the "Mysterious Corpse" Zhang Weiyu was right in front of them.
Chen Chuhua struck out with his palm again. Boundless black fog enveloped the Underworld Lord, who had turned into an invisible wind.
The evil wind roared as it fell into internal and external troubles.
The Underworld Lord fought with Xu Ruotong inside the Mansion of the Dead while blocking Chen Chuhua's attacks.
The Heavenly Monarch punched at Chen Chuhua.
Chen Chuhua diverted some of his energy to block the attack, but the Underworld Lord was not having an easy time.
Xu Peng, who looked like a skeleton, dashed forward and used his bones to form a cage, forcefully locking the invisible chilly wind.
The Underworld Lord forced himself to calm down and block Xu Peng's attacks while trying to suppress Xu Ruotong.
However, Xu Ruotong had the Human Emperor's Token in her hand. Rays of light swept through the Mansion of the Dead and kept suppressing the spirits, weakening the Underworld Lord.
The Underworld Lord tried to counterattack, but Yan Mingkong, who had turned into an ice sculpture on the altar, had already stabbed the Underworld Lord's vital organs.
Xu Ruotong waved her dagger again and the Underworld Lord in the Mansion of the Dead received another wound.
He stabbed out with his sword and pierced Xu Ruotong's body.
However, the blurry light on Xu Ruotong's forehead quickly shifted to the wound.
A power that made everything barren and lost its vitality emerged and destroyed the Underworld Lord's sword intent.
The Underworld Lord's realm was higher than Xu Ruotong's, but he had Yan Mingkong opening the way inside and the Spiritual Qi of the Mortal World pouring in continuously, while Xu Peng was pressuring him from the outside.
The Dark Lord's strength fell greatly under the joint attack from the inside and the outside. He actually found it more and more difficult to fight against Xu Ruotong.
The Underworld Lord's eyes were cold.
He suddenly let go of the Underworld Sword and stopped wrestling with Xu Ruotong.
However, Xu Ruotong felt an even greater danger approaching.
The Underworld Palace formed by the Nether Lord's body began to collapse, and cracks appeared on it.
The other side of these cracks was not in the universe of the Palace of Destruction, but in the worlds of the Red Dust, Xihe, Qingwei, Taixu, and Shanhai.
An unparalleled aura of death leaked out from these cracks, corroding the world of the living.
Within the Death Qi that was like a breaching dam, many ghosts rushed out.
At this moment, the Dark Lord completely released the restraints on the Yin Souls and wanted them to wreak havoc in the human world.
It was different from the past when the person who cultivated the Netherworld Sword Intent opened the Netherworld Gate and built a passage between the worlds of life and death.
At this moment, he had taken the initiative to tear down the Underworld as a final act of madness.
In the Mortal World, streams of white qi shuttled between heaven and earth.
The incomparably sharp Sword Qi seemed to have become the most stable barrier at this moment, blocking all the spirits that were about to devour them.
The experts from the other realms reacted slightly slower, but they all took action one after another, hurriedly stopping the invasion from the Netherworld.
In the Yellow Springs Underworld, Xu Ruotong faced the most direct impact, even more so than in the other worlds.
Her face was expressionless as two layers of light flashed around her body.
One was the light that barren creation and decayed all living beings.
The other was the light that ruled over all living beings and protected all living beings.
Two completely different and even conflicting concepts of power were perfectly united by Empress Xu Ruotong at this moment, facing the Dark Lord's desperate attack head-on.
When the Yellow Springs Underworld was shattered, the Dark Lord had suffered severe injuries. Now that the Netherworld in his body was also shattered, it caused irreversible damage to him.
While his fatal attack stalled Xu Ruotong, he turned from incorporeal to corporeal again. He shook off Xu Ruotong and charged at the white bone cage outside, wanting to break out of the Palace of Destruction.
But other than Xu Ruotong and Xu Peng, Zhang Weiyu had also arrived.
Using his fist as a spear, he punched straight at the Dark Lord's back, like a huge spear piercing through the Dark Lord's body.
The Dark Lord counterattacked and hit Zhang Weiyu heavily. Zhang Weiyu retreated and pulled out the "spear" from the Dark Lord's body.
Under the protection of the Mysterious Corpse's Indestructible Body, Zhang Weiyu's body was unharmed facing the heavily injured Dark Lord. Only his mind suffered a spiritual attack, and his body couldn't help but stop in place.
The Dark Lord gritted his teeth and tried to leave again, but a bone dragon lashed at him like a whip. Immediately, the Dark Lord's body shattered in midair, scattering into wisps of chilly wind.
But he still couldn't leave.
Xu Ruotong stepped forward again, holding the Human Emperor's Token with one hand. There were tiny blue light dots flickering on the token, representing the many ghosts including the old sword immortal and others.
Her other hand let go of the Jun Tiangao, and the power of "Desolation" appeared in her palm like a bottomless abyss, devouring the chilly wind that the Dark Lord had transformed into.
The chilly wind disappeared, and the light of Desolation flashed again. Even Xu Ruotong's figure disappeared.
But in the universe, there were still invisible chilly winds, sometimes strong and sometimes weak, constantly whistling.
Xu Ruotong and the Dark Lord once again engaged in a dangerous spiritual battle to decide the final winner.
Zhang Weiyu and Xu Peng looked at each other, and the two returned to the stone pillar together, rushing toward the Lord of Heaven who was fighting with Chen Chuhua.
Seeing that the situation was finally turning around, the voice of the Lord of Heaven suddenly came from the stone pillar again.
"You've worked hard, but it's a pity for Senior Brother Lu."
The halo on the stone pillar, which was originally withdrawn, suddenly spread outward at this moment, returning to the appearance when everyone had just entered the Destruction Luo Palace.
As soon as this halo spread, all the Gods of the Netherworld, including Xu Ruotong and the Dark Lord who were in the midst of the Life-and-Death Duel, stiffened.
A strong suppression was imposed on them, making it difficult for them to use their powers.
Be it the special wonders of the God of the Netherworld or the strength of his own cultivation, they were all suppressed at this moment.
The Lord of Heaven's fist landed, and Chen Chuhua, Zhang Weiyu, and Xu Peng flew out together!
It was not that the power of the Lord of Heaven had suddenly skyrocketed, but that the power of the three of them had dropped significantly.
Slowly, the door on the stone pillar opened at this moment.
A figure that looked like white jade walked out from it.
Cracks appeared on the white jade, and it shattered one after another, revealing the true face of the person inside. It was Lord Daoist Qing Wei.
Everyone turned to look at her, their hearts filled with shock.
They could not feel the aura of the "Quietus" of the God of the Netherworld on Yu Qingwei.
The most powerful God of the Netherworld seemed to have completely disappeared from the world, no longer existing.
But at this moment, they could not feel the mysterious Dao laws of the past from Lord Daoist.
Although she was standing there, in everyone's perception, she was extremely far away.
It was not just in terms of the distance between them, but in various senses.
She seemed to be standing at the end of the long river of time, standing before everything began, at the beginning.
Before the universe was created, before everything was chaotic, she had already existed there.
It was also as if she was standing at the end of time. After the world of creation was destroyed, everything, including time and space, no longer existed.
But she was still there.
She seemed to be there, hard to guess, and hard to describe.
Although she had never seen the First Three Venerables of the ancient times, Ling Qingqing naturally had a thought at this moment.
Limitless!
The 24th realm of martial arts, the supreme God realm, Limitless.
Since ancient times, only the First Three Venerables had reached this realm.
But at this moment, Lord Daoist had reached it.
Not only that, but she had also cracked the Destruction Luo Palace.
The sword light on Ling Qingqing's body had already disappeared. She was no longer restricted and stood up, but her expression was unprecedentedly heavy.
Lord Daoist looked at her and smiled. He raised his hand and threw something over. It was the Divine Sword Ming.
Lord Daoist looked at her and let out a long breath. "One step ahead, always ahead."
Lord Daoist said, "Since you have made a decision to help me, I will not go back on my word. You two siblings, go back to Xihe Realm."
She then looked into the distance.
Wherever her gaze landed, the invisible Yin wind suddenly appeared.
Under Lord Daoist's gaze, the entangled Yin wind turned into two figures again. One was Empress Xu Ruotong, and the other was Underworld Lord Lu Feng.
However, Underworld Lord's figure was already on the verge of dissipating.
"Senior Brother Lu, thank you for your hard work," Lord Daoist said and gently waved his hand.
Underworld Lord's body that was about to shatter reformed, but his body was full of cracks and his injuries were too severe to heal. He could only barely keep his breath.
As for Xu Ruotong's figure, it kept alternating between being blurry and clear.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, your decision is regrettable," Lord Daoist said. Xu Ruotong's figure gradually became more and more blurry.
Xu Peng and Zhang Weiyu groaned at the same time, but they were both tough bones. They gritted their teeth and attacked Lord Daoist.
However, under the spread of the light ring on the stone pillar, the two could not get close at all.
In Destroying Luo Palace, Lord Daoist could suppress Underworld Lord without making a move.
Chen Chuhua was also under great pressure, and he felt that it was difficult to move an inch.
"It's over." Lord Daoist looked at her. "This is your first time entering destruction, and it will be your last."
She finally took a step forward, and in the next moment, she was in front of Chen Chuhua. Then, she reached out and gently waved her hand.
Chen Chuhua's figure dissipated like ashes.
Lord Daoist waved her hand again, and Zhang Weiyu and Xu Peng's figures also turned into ashes.
She continued to take a step forward, and she was in front of Xu Ruotong.
"Why?" Lord Daoist reached out, and Xu Ruotong also disappeared, leaving behind the dying Underworld Lord.
A smile appeared on Underworld Lord's usually expressionless face. "Now that things have come to this, there is no need for me to linger on. Junior Sister Qingwei's step forward is worthy of celebration. I will also become part of the cooperation."
Lord Daoist nodded. "Thank you, Senior Brother Lu."
She waved her hand, and Underworld Lord's figure also dissipated.
Lord Daoist turned around, and in the next moment, she returned to the door of the stone pillar.
She looked at the Heavenly Phoenix and Ji Zhong. "Both of you want to find the whereabouts of ancient Emperor Xi. Maybe I can help."
The Heavenly Phoenix said, "What do you mean?"
Lord Daoist said, "I'm sure that Emperor Xi did not die, but his current state is unknown. I don't know if he is like Pan Huang, in this state that is neither dead nor alive."
As she spoke, she looked around the universe of Destroying Luo Palace in front of her.
"Fellow Daoist, you should have noticed it long ago?" Lord Daoist looked at the Heavenly Monarch. "After all, you have restored part of Pan Huang's power and conception. Your father could find this place in Destroying Luo Palace back then because of this."
Lord Daoist let out a long breath. "Even so, until now, I still can't believe that Destroying Luo Palace was actually transformed by Pan Huang."
