The image projected Wen Chiyang moving forward until his entire body entered the red light.

Lin Feng sensed the red light for a while before proceeding forward into it too.

After entering the red light, a sense of miracle engulfed Lin Feng. It was as if he was surrounded by the countless disasters of the Netherworld Sea gain and was unable to use his own powers to resist these disasters. He could only withstand the attack of the powers of the Netherworld Sea, which was a torment.

But on another hand, he felt as if he combined with the Netherworld Sea. The Netherworld Sea world was just another branch of him that had extended out, like a limb of his.

This feeling appeared before disappearing soon after. Lin Feng shook his head slightly and felt as if he was in another plane of space.

And in this plane of space, the red light beam that he saw earlier in the center of the Netherworld Sea appeared once more.

Although the boundary powers and powers of the Netherworld Sea separated him from it, Lin Feng could still sense that he was much closer to the red light beam now.

It seemed so far yet so near at the same time.

In this space, Lin Feng observed the light beam. He could subtly see that at the bottom of this red light beam, there was a huge stone pillar.

While it was a stone pillar, it was not as circular as one would think it to be. Rather, it seemed sharper, as if it was a divine soldier standing there.

A mysterious yet ancient word appeared in the red light. The word was "Catastrophe."

Lin Feng shrugged his sleeves and Xiao Yan, Zhu Yi as well as the others landed in this space. Xiao Yan looked at the pillar in a daze, and a bright red radiance was flashed from his pupils.

As he opened his palms wide, a piece of broken rock appeared on it. It also flashed with the same light and was very bright.

Xiao Yan took in a deep breath and retrieved the Nefarious Almighty Sword. He saw the surface of the sword flashing with a bright-red glow.

This had never happened before. When it encountered the Catastrophic Broken Rock before, the Nefarious Almighty Sword had no reaction. After it was carried along with the Catastrophic Broken Rock, there was still no reaction either.

Lin Feng and the rest stared at Xiao Yan and Xiao Yan focused before saying, "My soul is reacting to it. I must be connected to the stone pillar, but…"

He paused for a moment before he continued to say, "It feels like we are partners or something."

Lin Feng said, "That stone pillar should be the core of the Netherworld Sea and is the key to controlling the powers of the Netherworld Sea. The Catastrophic Broken Rock in the Ancient Longevity World should be a broken part of it that came off. Unintentionally, it landed in the Greater World."

"But it's just that before Wen Chiyang cultivated the Netherworld Sea, the Netherworld Sea was in a state of no ownership. Even after this broken piece of rock fell out, there's nothing special that could be seen. But after Wen Chiyang cultivated it, the broken piece and the Netherworld Sea resonated with each other again.

Lin Feng turned to look at Xiao Yan's Nefarious Spectral Primordial fire, "And this treasure is not totally stranger to that stone pillar. On the contrary, they should be quite close, thus it's only now that a reaction has surfaced."

Xiao Yan nodded his head and held onto the Nefarious Almighty Sword. He closed his eyes and sensed for awhile. And from head to toe, he started to flash with bright red radiance which was blinding. It seemed to resonate with the stone pillar in the distance.

Lin Feng looked at the stone pillar, "To control the powers of the Netherworld Sea is not easy. This place is not as stable as the Ying Sea or the Black Sea. It's really too chaotic here."

He brought Xiao Yan and the rest as they continued advancing forward and inched closer to the stone pillar. Finally, they arrived somewhere close to the stone pillar. On the ground, someone seemed to have sat there for a long time.

Although this place was very close to the stone pillar, Lin Feng knew that if Wen Chiyang did not develop such a close connection to the Netherworld Sea, it would not be easy to get so close to the stone pillar.

Lin Feng pointed with his finger and images flooded the minds of everyone again. These images belonged to the memories of Wen Chiyang. As expected, he was sitting on a platform and faced the stone pillar.

As he sat, he sat for many years. To Lin Feng, this was just an instant, but to Wen Chiyang, it was hundreds and thousands of years long.

And in this process, Wen Chiyang's body started to levitate a little. He kept on infusing into the red light beam, until his entire person had entered the stone pillar, combining with the red light to form one entity.

Wen Chiyang opened his eyes at this point and sighed.

"Although I can control the powers of the Netherworld Sea now, I am part of the Netherworld Sea now. If I summon the powers of it now, the harm will be reflected on my own body. That's because the source of the powers would be. I can't even resist and can only accept readily. If the powers reach their limit, it may kill the opponent at the expense of my own life."

"More importantly, I still can't break free from the Netherworld Sea. At most, I can only guide people in. But I can't return to the Divine Lands." Wen Chiyang muttered, but he soon smiled again, "However, if I go through one more round of tireless cultivation, I can leave the Netherworld Sea peacefully. It might have been thousands of years already, but I have finally obtained the chance to return to the Divien Lands."

Wen Chiyang nodded his head slightly as he smiled, "But I wonder how Yun'er is. What about Mount Baiyun now?"

He extended his hand as he gestured in a space. After that, a crack opened in space suddenly.

As compared to this crack, on the side of the Southern Wilderness, a medium-sized crack of the Netherworld Sea also opened.

While he could not escape from the Netherworld Sea, Wen Chiyang could use the crack to see what was going on on the other side.

Although it was very troublesome, and this action even exerted a burden on him, Wen Chiyang still opened a crack as he wanted to know what was going on in the external world. He wanted to see how his wife and child was and see how the Divine Lands was.

But as he took a peek, Wen Chiyang's heart sank.

Before he could even find out the whereabouts of his wife and child, the Divine Lands started to rage with crossfire. As the demons wreaked havoc, there was a huge War of the Two Worlds that was going on in the Grand Celestial World.

The brutal, demonic powers engulfed the entire Divine Lands. Amidst black smoke, a white ape watched the mortal world coldly.

That ape seemed ordinary, but its aura was very frightening. As it remained in void space, it did not seem to exist in this world and was very unpredictable.

A brutal strength combined with the ethereal aura in void space. It was such a conflicting combination yet such a perfect one. When one looked at it, it was very petrifying.

With regards to this great demon, Wen Chiyang's impression of him was very deep, "Shen Yuan!"

After observing Shen Yuan, he discovered that this demon had restored to his peak state just like how he was when he ran riot in the Divine Lands many years ago. He might even be better now, which left Wen Chiyang both shocked and furious, "How can this be?! This ape should have been greatly hurt then. Even if Xinghe was injured, Xia Fangyu should be able to kill him. Why was he allowed to make a comeback?"

As he could not be bothered with his anger, Wen Chiyang stared at the image in the crack. Torrential rain and wind struck the Divine Lands as Shen Yuan landed on Mount Baiyun.

A bright mirror rose above Mount Baiyun and suppressed Shen Yuan, preventing Mount Baiyun from being hurt.

"Fortunately, the Supreme Heavenly Mirror has restored to its peak state." Wen Chiyang heaved a sigh of relief. But following that, he tensed up again, "But if Shen Yuan goes to attack other parts of the Divine Lands, the Supreme Heavenly Mirror might not be able to protect all of them. The result will still be disastrous."

He looked at Mount Baiyun carefully and his heart sank, "Xinghe is no longer around? The disciples who are summoning the Supreme Heavenly Mirror have probably not overcome the Cardinal Tribulations Stage yet. In this way, if the battle drags on, their powers won't be sufficient. They will be easily exploited by Shen Yuan. If the Supreme Heavenly Mirror is harmed once again, no one can stop Shen Yuan anymore."

As Wen Chiyang saw this scene, he descended into silence and his gaze fluttered. He was never so disturbed before.

In the minds of Lin Feng and the rest, Wen Chiyang's figure divided into two and these sub-figures of his faced each other.

One of them was expressionless and his gaze was extremely cold. He was unbothered by what he saw earlier, whereas the other figure was filled with worry.

"Master, are these both the personalities of Wen Chiyang?" Yang Qing asked as he saw. Lin Feng shook his head, "This is not the case. This is his thought process. Or we could say that this is his conscience."

Wen Chiyang asked, "If you go now, you can only use the powers of the Netherworld Sea to challenge Shen Yuan. Regardless whether you win or not, you will find it difficult to escape."

The worried figure of Wen Chiyang shook his head and his gaze was determined, "I am fearless. If I am still breathing, I will protect the lives of my fellow humans until I die."

The expressionless figure of Wen Chiyang then asked, "You have already died for the Divine Lands once. Are you going to sacrifice your life once again?"

The other Wen Chiyang laughed, "To me, death is nothing."

The expressionless Wen Chiyang then said, "You agreed to reunite with your wife and protect her for eternity. She has been waiting for you. As for your unborn kid, you haven't even seen what he looks like yet. Your child has not even seen what his father is like too."

Only at this point did Wen Chiyang appear a little down. His expression was filled with the rare look of desolation and sorrow. Eventually, he shook his head, "Right now, I can only choose to believe Xinghe and the others."

"I have a wife, so do the many people in the Divine Lands. They have their loved ones and their own families!" Wen Chiyang's expression was both determined and sorrowful. "My parents perished in the hands of the demons. I don't want this tragedy to befall anyone else."

The expressionless Wen Chiyang continued to ask, "If you participate in this battle, as a combined entity with the Netherworld Sea, you can't interact with anyone and leave any messages behind. No one will know the suffering that you have had to endure and what you did today. No one will know how much you have given up, that you have returned to the Divine Lands and died for them once again."

"No." The other Wen Chiyang smiled, "The mountains, rivers and lakes of the Divine Lands will know that I was back!"

At this point, the expressionless figure disappeared. The brave man in linen clothing then roared. The stone pillar came off from the ground, causing the Netherworld Sea to shake violently. A brutal space-time turbulence was initiated as it went straight for the Divine Lands.

Wen Chiyang had already disappeared and his voice ceased to exist. But the Heavens and Earth seemed to reflect his smile, "Shen Yuan, don't be too arrogant. Wen Chiyang is coming!"
