I picked up the scattered attributes

Inviting Feng Xia to explore the ancient Youdu together is, to put it kindly, a way for two powerful individuals to show compassion for the weak and reduce unnecessary casualties.

However, on another level, it means that the two ancient emperors' current power is simply insufficient to open up the ancient Netherworld, which is why they had to ask a third person for help.

Based on previous rumors, the second possibility is clearly more likely.

"The rumors are probably true..."

Some people are already sighing inwardly.

Judging from the current posture of Feng Xia and the other two, although their aura was sharp and their eyes were piercing, as if they were determined to find the person in the shadows and then fight a bloody battle, after a long time, Feng Xia and the other two still had not made any progress!

While the ability to conceal oneself does not equate to absolute strength.

However, if one still cannot find the hidden person even with deliberate searching, then some things are self-evident.

"Come out and face your death!" the Demon Dragon Emperor roared, his demonic aura soaring into the sky.

"Hey hey hey..."

Laughter drifted through the void, disappearing without a trace.

Ultimately, this minor setback subsided.

No one in the group dared to speak, but whether anyone harbored disloyal thoughts or had any bold ideas was unknown.

Feng Xia, Zu Long, and Yao Long Huang exchanged glances, as if they had made up their minds.

"go!"

Feng Xia and his two companions took the lead and entered the long-abandoned and silent Youdu Ancient City.

The desolate ancient city and the fragmented region, like a torn scroll, presented the ancient and deserted Youdu to everyone's eyes—just as it had been when Feng Xia last came here, without the slightest change.

In fact, in Feng Xia's perception, quite a few years had passed since the Great Yan God King Ji Yuheng brought him here.

However, for the ancient Youdu Prefecture, it was merely a drop in the ocean of time.

Back then, he had not yet reached the Dao Court realm. Although his strength was extraordinary, he was still a long way from Ji Yuheng, who was already a God Lord.

Ji Yuheng's ability to traverse space, cutting through it with a mere gesture, and descending into the deepest Netherworld of the Ten Lands, was a feat that left Feng Xia in awe.

Even with Feng Xia's current perspective, Ji Yuheng's mastery of the Great Dao of Space is still at an extremely high level, befitting his status as one of the most accomplished individuals in the Great Dao of Space within the Heavenly Pattern Divine Kingdom back then!

The only difference from the last time I came... was Feng Xia's state of mind!

"This is...this is the debris of a galaxy!"

A cry of alarm rang out from the group: "I've seen the remnants of the Milky Way before. They're fragments that only emerge after stars die, incredibly heavy. The walls of this ancient Netherworld city... could they all be forged from these remnants of the Milky Way?!"

With just one sentence, many people gasped in shock.

The ancient god kingdom's actions were even more astonishing than they had imagined.

The magnificent Youdu Palace, built from the remnants of the Milky Way, governs life and death and suppresses the six realms of reincarnation. What an astonishing and extraordinary method this is!

"Putting everything else aside, even just one piece of these star debris would be an incredible treasure!"

"This is just the city wall of Youdu Prefecture, so what about the important artifacts and treasures inside...?"

"As expected of that ancient divine kingdom, it's hard to imagine what kind of majesty and power it possessed at its peak."

Just as everyone was discussing and sighing with admiration.

A beautiful and charming female deity suddenly laughed and said, "So many star debris could not have been born naturally. One can only imagine how many worlds the ancient god kingdom destroyed and how much bloodshed it caused, all just to build this city!"

Everyone looked at each other, and they all saw the horror in each other's eyes.

Many worlds are not large enough to withstand destruction; once they perish, they vanish without a trace, leaving not even the remnants of stars.

And so many remnants of galaxies...

It couldn't possibly have been conceived naturally!

The bloody case hidden behind it would probably shock anyone.

Those who have made it this far are all people of exceptional talent and ability!

However, the woman's few simple words sent a deep chill down their spines. A scene of mountains of corpses and seas of blood appeared before their eyes, a terrifying sight that was like hell, sending shivers down their spines!

“What Fairy Lingyun said is absolutely right.”

Another person spoke up, clapping his hands and laughing: "Such a brutal rule cannot last long. That is why, no matter how powerful the divine kingdom is, it eventually fell apart and disappeared into the long river of history."

Fairy Lingyun is quite famous in Ziwei. Not only is she exceptionally beautiful, but she has also reached the peak of the Celestial God realm at a young age.

More importantly, although she does not belong to any aristocratic family, she is suspected to have a powerful figure behind her. There was once a young master from a powerful family who, relying on his wealth, attempted to stage a scene of forcibly abducting a commoner.

As it turned out, the young master vanished without a trace, while Fairy Lingyun remained unharmed.

The powerful family behind that young master remained unusually silent, and even issued a strict order to all family members to rectify the family's conduct, which shocked many busybodies.

During that period, all the major and minor factions within Ziwei sternly warned their family members to be careful with their words and actions when they went out, and never to cause trouble easily!

But conversely, if one could win the heart of Fairy Lingyun...

"Humph!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Zu Long let out a cold snort.

The man suddenly came to his senses and immediately shut his mouth and fell silent.

The others immediately fell silent as well.

"Fellow Daoists, I have heard that the deepest part of the Ancient Netherworld is the origin of the ancient cycle of reincarnation—the Nine Netherworld Yellow Springs. If one can comprehend life and death and understand reincarnation there, even a God-King level cultivator will surely gain a great deal."

Fortunately, at this moment, Feng Xia coughed and pointed to the depths of the ancient Youdu.

The last time he came here, he saw the terrifying sight of the Yellow Springs drying up. It was from that time that Feng Xia truly understood the strange power struggle between the Dao Ancestors of the Divine Kingdom.

A war that has lasted for fifty million years, and has never ended since it began!

Everyone's gaze turned to the distance.

Reminded by Feng Xia, many cultivators activated their pupil techniques, their divine light shining brightly as they carefully scanned the surrounding world, attempting to uncover the secrets of this ancient, desolate city.

"Hmm, what is that?"

Suddenly, someone noticed that in all directions, there seemed to be an invisible river flowing through the space, converging towards the deepest part of Youdu Mansion.

“That direction… could only be the Netherworld, so the river flowing into the Netherworld must be the River Styx! But I’ve heard that the Netherworld has long since dried up, so where does this River Styx come from?”

A cultivator murmured in confusion.

Suddenly, something occurred to him, and he exclaimed in shock, "Could it be that the primordial Yellow Springs... has begun to flow again?!"

……

Chapter 1158

The Netherworld is empty, and the Yellow Springs have dried up.

In the eyes of Feng Xia and Ji Yuheng back then, it was an incredibly shocking sight. As the source of reincarnation and the supreme place where the divine kingdom was established, how could Youdu Prefecture be abandoned, and how could the Yellow Springs water dry up?

Ji Yuheng, the Great Evolution God King, was only proficient in the Great Dao of Space, but he knew very little about reincarnation.

Furthermore, having lived in a daze for fifty million years, Ji Yuheng was unaware that the drying up of the Yellow Springs and the emptiness of Youdu were not actually secrets within Ziwei.

However, on many occasions, it is cloaked in a glamorous and dazzling exterior—

"The reason why the ancient god kingdom established Youdu was to control life and death, and to forever bring every living being in the world, from birth to death, from past life to present life and to future life, under their rule."

"But it was precisely for this reason that the resistance of people with lofty ideals across the land was aroused, and after a great battle, the ancient Youdu Prefecture became history."

Sensing the strange, almost invisible flow of water in the void, Fairy Lingyun's expression changed: "Now that the Yellow Springs water has started flowing again, could it be... that those guys have returned?"

Her gaze drifted towards Zu Long, intentionally or unintentionally.

Many people felt a sudden jolt in their hearts.

If we're talking about the return of the ancient god kingdom... wasn't Zu Long a person from that era?

Furthermore, Zulong was also the God of War of the Ancient God Kingdom, and was once revered as one of the Four Great Emperors!

"You little brat, talking nonsense, spreading rumors, and harboring ill intentions!"

Zulong immediately sneered: "I died in battle long before the destruction of the Divine Kingdom. For fifty million years, I was shrouded in darkness, unaware even of the kingdom's demise, and have yet to recover..."

Feng Xia's expression changed slightly, and he quickly whispered, "Fellow Daoist Zulong, please stop talking—"

Zu Long also clearly realized something and quickly shut up.

The Demon Dragon Emperor merely sneered: "Stupid dragon!"

This scene was merely a small episode in the exploration process.

Most of the people in the group didn't even notice the conversation.

However, to those who are observant, the interactions between Feng Xia and the other two contain too many interpretations.

"However, if the waters of the underworld were to flow again, and the River Styx were to surge forth, wouldn't that mean that this world..."

Another powerful deity frowned and subconsciously said, "Two cycles of reincarnation?"

He spoke unintentionally, but to others, it sounded like a thunderclap from the primordial gods.

If there were two cycles of reincarnation, wouldn't that be complete chaos?
