Since the Demon Race descended,
Dragon Ao Tian had been stationed within the barrier he set up,
preventing the Martial Emperors from losing control of the situation!
Dragon Ao Tian returned to the Dragon Emperor Palace,
and examined the mark within Chu Ming's consciousness sea,
but shook his head and said, "I don't know, I've never seen this before!"
"However, the aura emanating from this mark is indeed related to Netherworld Hell!"
Dragon Ao Tian fell into deep thought,
but after prolonged contemplation, he couldn't recall which major faction in Netherworld Hell would have such a mark?
Long Yuan suddenly asked.
"No, absolutely not!"
"I've never experienced this situation during my cultivation!"
Dragon Ao Tian firmly shook his head.
But seeing Long Yuan's slightly suspicious gaze,
he added, "If you don't believe me, just enter my consciousness sea and see for yourself!"
As a result, Long Yuan's divine sense actually entered!
"Damn, you really didn't hold back at all!"
Dragon Ao Tian quickly flew in after him.
Within Dragon Ao Tian's consciousness sea, everything shone golden,
radiant and colorful,
like a world forged from pure gold!
"So? Didn't I say there wasn't any?"
Arriving at the deepest part of his consciousness sea,
Dragon Ao Tian stood beside Long Yuan and calmly stated,
as someone at the Half-step World-Creation Realm,
how could he possibly be unaware if such a thing existed?
Yet Long Yuan smiled and asked, "Are you sure there's nothing?"
Hearing this question,
Dragon Ao Tian's heart suddenly skipped a beat,
his gaze sweeping around,
but still finding nothing.
At that moment, Long Yuan placed a hand on his shoulder,
and said, "Look again!"
Sure enough, in the next instant,
Dragon Ao Tian saw the exact same mark from Chu Ming's consciousness sea in the deepest part of his own.
"This... how is this possible?"
His eyes widened in shock,
letting out an exclamation,
how could such a thing exist in his consciousness sea?
And he had remained completely unaware of it?
"I must be seeing things!"
Dragon Ao Tian shook his head,
then opened them again,
only to sigh! It was indeed gone!
But when Long Yuan placed his hand on his shoulder once more,
"You... what did you do to me?"
Dragon Ao Tian stared at Long Yuan in horror.
"Your strength is too weak, so I lent you some power to see that mark clearly!"
Long Yuan calmly explained,
this wasn't some illusion technique he had cast,
but rather the mark itself was deeply concealed,
beyond Dragon Ao Tian's ability to detect!
Now Dragon Ao Tian was utterly stunned,
such a mark existed in his own consciousness sea?
"How could this be? I've never experienced any abnormalities!"
Recalling his several million years of cultivation in Netherworld Hell,
there had never been any discomfort,
and he had no idea when this mark had been placed in his consciousness sea!
Long Yuan frowned in contemplation,
he could understand Dragon Ao Tian being marked,
given his long years of cultivation in Netherworld Hell,
it was possible someone had secretly cast some technique on him!
But what about Chu Ming?
When and how had he been marked?
"What exactly left these marks?"
Long Yuan examined the mark before him,
normally he should be able to erase even a World-Creation Realm expert's mark,
so why couldn't he remove this one?
"Could the being who left this mark have surpassed the World-Creation Realm?"
Long Yuan murmured to himself.
"Impossible! If Netherworld Hell had World-Origin Realm beings, they wouldn't have remained in that frigid world for so many years!"
Dragon Ao Tian shook his head.
"Then where did this come from?"
they didn't even know what had left these marks,
nor whether they posed any danger?
"It seems the being who left these marks must be one of Netherworld Hell's supreme experts, but the key is what method they used to leave them?"
Moreover, were there others in the Chu family with similar marks?
Could this potentially harm the Chu family in the future?
"Come with me to a place!"
Long Yuan said to Dragon Ao Tian,
"You'll know when we get there!"
Long Yuan flew out of the Dragon Emperor Palace with Chu Ming,
plunging into Qingyang Lake below.
Long Yuan had returned to the spatial world beneath Qingyang Lake.
Because he felt that the "Moon Goddess" must have existed for an extremely long time,
and with her breadth of knowledge, she might recognize the origin of these marks!
The Moon Goddess's long black hair cascaded down,
her white robes draped loosely over her body, the silver moon mark between her brows radiating moonlight,
she remained seated cross-legged atop that blood coffin as always, suppressing the sinister creature within!
Sensing their arrival,
the Moon Goddess opened her closed eyes.
The moment she saw Long Yuan,
her expression turned to astonishment: "Early-stage World-Creation Realm?"
The Moon Goddess was profoundly shocked,
she remembered him being only at the peak of Immortal-tier last time,
yet now he had reached the World-Creation Realm?
Moreover, his bloodline had transformed again,
from the Iceflame Mystic Dragon before,
to a dragon type even she didn't recognize!
"Which ancient era's powerhouse are you from?"
The Moon Goddess asked Long Yuan,
Long Yuan must be some ancient expert now recovering his cultivation!
that dragon beside him had actually reached the Half-step World-Creation Realm?
But why did he carry the aura of Netherworld Hell?
It seemed more changes had occurred in the Mortal Realm!
"I belong to this era!"
"I'm no ancient powerhouse!"
Long Yuan shook his head.
"Then what is your purpose in coming today?" For more chapters visit ⓝovelFire.net
"Have you come to slay the creature in this coffin now that your strength has increased?"
"If that's the case......"
The Moon Goddess rose to her feet,
the moon mark between her brows glowing brightly,
powerful energy waves radiating from her body.
She was clearly an Immortal-tier powerhouse!
However, Long Yuan sensed
this likely wasn't her peak condition,
but rather the result of long-term suppression of the coffin's inhabitant!
"Don't misunderstand, I came only to see if I could assist in purging the sinister energy from the coffin's inhabitant!"
When asking for help, one must show the proper attitude!
Frowning, the Moon Goddess refused: "Unnecessary! This deity has her own methods!"
"Wouldn't purging the sinister energy sooner give the inhabitant a better chance of recovery? Aren't you worried delay might cause irreversible damage?"
"Or would you rather watch them endure such suffering?"
"Enough! Speak, what do you want from me?"
The Moon Goddess cut straight to the point,
she feared no deadly battle,
but the coffin's inhabitant was her weakness!
"Simple, I wish for you to identify a certain mark!"
As Long Yuan spoke, he pointed at the air,
and the marks from Chu Ming and Dragon Ao Tian's consciousness seas materialized before them.
"Hmm? The Six Paths Reincarnation?"
The moment she saw the mark,
the Moon Goddess exclaimed in surprise.
"Six Paths Reincarnation?"
Long Yuan was astonished,
she truly was knowledgeable to recognize it!
"You've reached the World-Creation Realm yet don't know of this?"
"This is the Six Paths Reincarnation, a supreme divine artifact born when the Thirty-Three Heavens first formed. After the Thirty-Three Heavens collapsed, powerful beings used fragments to create Netherworld Hell!"
"But to my knowledge, this artifact has always been controlled by Netherworld Hell's Six Paths Empress. To leave a Six Paths Reincarnation mark, she would have to personally intervene!"
