Time passed, and who knows how long it had been. The Nether Emperor held Qinglan's body with one hand, gazing in a certain direction, muttering to himself, "You have become a forbidden zone, live another life!"

Qinglan's Divine Soul had perished, his essence devoured, all paths were severed, but... becoming a forbidden zone, gathering the great forces of heaven and earth, and seizing the truth of the universe, perhaps he could come back to life.

This was the only way.

Everyone was shocked.

Then the Nether Emperor strode away without looking back.

On the ruins, Zi Ji could no longer hold back: "Father!" She chased after him, but the Nether Emperor was too fast, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

A few minutes later, a violent tremor came from a certain direction.

It was the Nether Emperor establishing a forbidden zone for Qinglan.

A few more minutes... 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

A quake came from the direction of the Valley of Death, rumbling and roaring, the Nether Emperor was taking action.

The Qi Refiners were shocked and rushed over quickly.

By the time they arrived, the Nether Emperor had forcibly opened the entrance to the Valley of Death. He did not look back, leaving with his back to everyone.

"Father!" Zi Ji shouted again.

"From today, Zi Ji inherits the position of Nether Emperor, taking over Luo Feng Mountain, ruling the Netherworld..." The voice of the Nether Emperor echoed back.

Swish!

A beam of light shot over, entering Zi Ji's body. It was a brand, the brand of the Immortals.

With this brand, she could integrate with the Netherworld, and even her Five Senses and Sixth Perception could cover most of the Netherworld, truly overlooking all beings.

Then the Nether Emperor said again, "Human boy, what you want is deep in the Land of Bitter Cold."

Chen Pingping: "???"

He walked further and further, his figure gradually disappearing, everyone was sad, realizing that Lord Nether Emperor would not return, he was going to battle the Valley of Death, to find the Empress...

This was a difficult road.

Zi Ji did not call out again, calming down instantly, watching her father's disappearing direction, but her hands under the sleeves were unconsciously clenched.

After the brand entered her body, it quickly fused with her.

A terrible Divine Might exploded with a bang, shocking heaven and earth, and swept through the Netherworld madly.

"Kneel to Lord Nether Emperor." Someone began to kneel.

"Kneel to the Nether Emperor..."

......

This great battle was over.

The Netherworld finally ushered in new hope, but... only a few knew that to escape from the oppression and control of the Divine Clan, the Nether Emperor still had a long way to go.

Because this time, only one King Luo descended to the Netherworld, the True Martial Dynasty was so powerful, and there were many powerful Gods. If they acted arbitrarily, they could destroy the Netherworld.

An end, and also a beginning...

The entrance of the Valley of Death slowly closed, and the former subordinates stood there for a long time, unwilling to leave, with sadness in their eyes.

Over here...

Zi Ji began to establish her own Luo Feng Mountain.

Chen Pingping ventured deep into the bitter cold to find what the Nether Emperor had left, and eventually, he saw the great Fate Energy of the Netherworld, no... it was a withered great Fate Energy.

It had long since lost its color, and there was no force fluctuation.

Yet even so, Chen Pingping was still shocked: "The elder wants to give me the great Fate Energy of the Netherworld?"

The Moon God behind him answered: "The great Fate Energy of the Netherworld is not important, it does not represent the future of the Netherworld, on the contrary... without the great Fate Energy, the Netherworld would be better."

"How do you see that?" Chen Pingping frowned.

"Because the Ming Tribe does not cultivate Spirit Qi." The Moon God spoke.

Yes!

They practice Qi Refinement, cultivating Innate Qi, not Spirit Qi, so the condensation of Fate Energy is optional.

As long as the Underworld does not collapse, the Netherworld will always exist, that is their root...

Chen Pingping seemed to understand, hesitating for a moment, then put away the withered Fate Energy.

The Moon God was moved: "Your Emperor Weapon?"

Chen Pingping said sheepishly: "Yes!"

"..."

She was a bit stupefied, her mind shaken.

Over the span of hundreds of years, Chen Pingping had grown to this extent, able to kill Emperor Realm beings with a wave and forge Heaven Tao Divine Weapons, and the key was, he hadn't verified Tao yet.

Now, three of the Six Tao Emperor Weapons had already taken shape.

The Moon God gazed upward, as if remembering something, and said in a low voice: "You have grand ambitions."

Practicing Six Tao, forging the Six Tao.

Using the great Fate Energy as a foundation to form Heaven Tao Divine Weapons, no... accurately speaking, he wants to create something beyond Emperor Weapons.

If it were anyone else, the Moon God would surely mock him: "What dream are you dreaming?"

Yet?

Chen Pingping had already forged the foundation.

For a moment, she did not know what to say.

Boom!

Chen Pingping swung his hand, using the Six Tao to absorb and then combine it, with a rumbling sound echoing through the Land of Bitter Cold.

The Moon God was disordered.

After a long time...

The astonishing scene finally calmed down, and after collecting the Emperor Weapons, Chen Pingping prepared to leave.

A figure approached from not far away, Aji.

He had witnessed the whole process, shocked like the Moon God, but his gaze did not linger for long, instead turning to the Moon God: "My lord!"

"???"

The Moon God frowned: "Who are you?"

Aji spoke: "Aji of the Blood Kirin Legion, paying respects to Lady Moon God."

So he was Blood Kirin.

The Moon God sighed: "What is it?"

"I heard you entered the Valley of Death, did you meet the Empress?" Aji asked with anticipation.

"No!" She replied crisply.

The young man immediately fell silent, standing quietly for a long time before turning to leave.

The Empress entered the Valley of Death many years ago, with no news since. Perhaps she had already perished, or maybe she was still alive... He didn't know, the only thought in his mind flickering in and out.

He didn't even know whether to stay in this barren land...

Very sad.

The Moon God spoke softly: "The Valley of Death is terrifying, it's actually a passage, the Empress has been moving forward, trying to traverse it to reach the other end, but... I have a premonition that the Empress will fail."

Chen Pingping was curious: "Why would she fail?"

"The Valley of Death is too terrifying, filled with the Power of Order, no one knows where the end of the path is, the Empress will not know either. Now, Lord Nether Emperor has entered, he will not come back." The Moon God spoke.

The man who had been suppressed for countless ages ultimately pursued whom he loved.

In fact, he was also seeking a way out for the Netherworld.

If that place truly exists, perhaps the Netherworld need no longer fear the oppression of the Divine Clan.

So it is.

Chen Pingping suddenly understood: "The matter of the Netherworld is over, after some time, I plan to return. What are your plans?"

The Moon God looked at him: "What do you think my plans should be?"

"Come with me!" Chen Pingping smiled: "Enter the Nine Heavens, I'll lead you into the Heavens, help you suppress the Gods."

Hahaha...

The Moon God suddenly laughed, rolling her eyes at him, playfully saying: "You really know how to brag."

Throughout ancient times, who knows how many invincible humans have forged ahead, but in the end, where are they? Either buried along the way, died miserably at the hands of the Divine Clan, or... fell into unknown lands, slowly dying of old age.

No one has ever ended well.

The path of warring against the Divine Clan is far more difficult than entering the Valley of Death!

Although Chen Pingping amazed her greatly, such amazement was far from enough...

This was not something that power, luck, foundations, and such can compensate for, but rather the inevitable fate of race, the karma of humanity.

The Moon God put away her smile, answering seriously: "Alright! But..."

"But what?" Chen Pingping raised an eyebrow, feeling this little girl was up to something.

ps: The Netherworld saga is ending, returning to the Nine Heavens, going to find Miss Chen...
