Chapter 66: Immortal Mystery
The starry sky is vast and boundless, with a blazing golden avenue stretching across one star field after another, emitting an incomparably powerful divine power.

All creatures in the universe were filled with awe when they saw this. They knew that this was the Emperor of Heaven traveling around the world. It was true that Xuan Ye had not appeared in the world for thousands of years, but the legends about the Emperor of Heaven had never ceased to be passed down by later generations.

"Praise to His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven, may the way of immortality last forever!"

"The Emperor of Heaven is immortal, and has achieved longevity in this mortal world!"

During the most active years of the Forbidden Zone Supreme, the Emperor of Heaven appeared out of nowhere, like a beam of eternal and immortal fairy light, dispelling the darkness that shrouded the entire world and pacifying several major life forbidden zones in one fell swoop, making all spirits admire him and pray for him with all their hearts, so that almost every moment a huge amount of faith and thought power surged towards Xuan Ye, and the magnificent sacrificial heavenly sound echoed in his ears.

However, Xuan Ye did not get too much contamination from the worldly thoughts, but instead infused them all into the path to immortality, which then flowed to Shura far away in the strange world. It was also because of this that his cultivation level increased instead of declined, firmly reaching the Heavenly Emperor level.

This terrifying speed of progress truly shocked the supreme emperors of the two worlds. Looking at the past, present and future, it is difficult to find a few monsters who can match him!

In the vast outer world, countless huge stars kept retreating before Xuan Ye's eyes, who was extremely quiet and thinking about something. He opened his third eye, and the surging power of his consciousness poured out, covering every corner. He was trying to explore the backup plan left by the Emperor to refine the human world, and was also searching for the trace of the Immortal Emperor.

Suddenly, Xuan Ye paused and stood still above the sky. His eyes were deep, firmly fixed on a dead silent place deep in the starry sky.

At his level, although still at the pinnacle of humanity, there is already a qualitative gap between him and ordinary emperors. His spiritual awareness is extraordinary, and a single thought is enough to shatter the nine heavens and ten earths. Coupled with his own intentional exploration, he can naturally easily feel the anomalies in the uninhabited areas of deep space.

Xuan Ye's mind moved, and the golden road instantly cut through the sky, carrying the Emperor of Heaven across the void and descending directly to that strange place.

I saw a large piece of gray fog escaping from nothingness, covering the sky and blocking out the sun. It was as thick as a calamity cloud, pressing the chaotic void into pieces. What was even more terrifying was that after engulfing the sun, moon and stars, this gray fog actually sucked up the essence of the heaven and earth, leaving only pieces of dust, which dissipated silently.

This is a forbidden object recorded in ancient books. It has appeared in the human world more than once. The last time it appeared was when Emperor Daoyan walked out of the Eternal Star Domain. It was filled with an extremely terrifying aura of destruction. But no one can tell what the essence of this gray fog is.

Even the people in the Eternal Star Domain, who are relatively different in the Zhutian Universe and believe in "scientific cultivation of immortals", are unable to analyze it, and it is difficult to determine whether there is life in it, or whether it is nurturing some kind of treasure. In the end, a cultivator at the quasi-emperor level took action personally, but in the end, there was no trace of it at all, and it did not cause any impact on the gray fog at all.

The occurrence of this incident frightened everyone in the Eternal Star Domain. From then on, they dared not approach the gray fog again and regarded it as the biggest taboo, calling it the Devil's Fog.

However, Xuan Ye knew the inside story. The appearance of the devil fog was closely related to the Immortal Emperor. It was a kind of corpse gas formed by the decay of the emperor's corpse and eventually mutated.

Generally speaking, the ancient great emperor-level creatures can be said to be immortal even after death, and they are still vivid after millions of years. For example, the Taoist Lord of the Mythology era, in later generations, his corpse was transformed into Laozi Li Er. In addition, some people choose to become Taoists, and a few such as the Human Emperor and the Demon Emperor, who are extremely powerful, even die while trying to become immortals. As for the completely decayed and decayed emperor corpses, they have never been circulated in the world.

Of course, just because you haven't heard of it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. The emperor's corpse, protected by the laws of the emperor, can naturally remain immortal. But what if all the essence of the emperor's law is used as a human medicine and is completely refined and absorbed by people? Or, is this simply the remains of an emperor, an abandoned old body?
The Immortal Emperor has been able to live life after life by relying on this method. Throughout the ages, countless lives, emperors and kings have fallen into his sustenance. It is said that his shadow has been behind all the dark turmoil that has erupted since the ancient times.

Now, finding the Devil's Fog is equivalent to finding the place where the Immortal Emperor transformed into Nirvana. If Xuan Ye is lucky enough, he might be able to catch the Immortal Emperor in the act!

boom!
He raised his hand to break the mist, and strode forward into the depths. A layer of hazy space-time secret power spread out around his body, isolating all the mist outside.

This substance is extremely strange. After all, it involves creatures of the first level of the Supreme Emperor. The denser the area, the more amazing the killing power. Only someone as powerful as Xuan Ye can treat it as nothing and run around in it at will. Otherwise, even if a creature from the ninth level of the Quasi-Emperor breaks in here, he will turn into a pool of pus and blood, and all his blood essence will be drained!
The moment Xuan Ye reached the deepest point, the evil spirit seemed to come alive, and it condensed into the shadow of an imperial beast that could devour the blood and energy of the supreme being, and pounced towards him.

Seeing this, Xuan Ye was suddenly delighted. He could feel that someone was controlling the devil fog, and judging from the current situation in the world, the only one who would take action against it was the Immortal Emperor.

"Got you!"

Xuan Ye activated the Eternal Night Magic Art, his blood boiling and endless red light burst out from his body, instantly evolving into a blood-colored field filled with a chilling murderous aura. Endless rules and order intertwined, transforming into a blazing divine wheel that suddenly slashed towards the gray beast shadow.

"Roar!"

The beast roared towards the sky, grabbing the essence of all directions, and then opened its mouth to spit out a gray mist dragon. The dragon had solid scales and a ferocious face, and contained unparalleled power that was not inferior to the so-called forbidden secret techniques. It even wanted to hunt the Emperor of Heaven and plunder his life essence.

With a loud bang, the divine wheel collided with the beast shadow, causing a shocking explosion that shook the earth. All the heavens and the earth were wailing, and the whole world was shaking. The emperor's power rolled, and in an instant, it crushed the chaotic void, caused the stars to be extinguished, and also broke open the devil's fog that covered the place.

In the distance, there is a divine island floating in the void. On the island is a secluded pool, which is the Soul Pool, as famous as the Samsara Sea and the Feixian Waterfall.

And right in the Soul Pond, there was a huge divine egg floating up and down, surrounded by five-colored fairy light and the unique Nirvana divine fire of the Fairy Phoenix clan burning. Through layers of obstacles, a sitting human figure could be vaguely seen.
