Ying Zheng no longer paid attention to Taixuan. He waved his hand and another soul was drawn over from the void.

It was the Yuan Ling of Immortal Xiang Ci.

"Junior, you..."

As soon as Xiang Ci Xianzun saw Ying Zheng, he became furious.

However, Ying Zheng interrupted him and said, "You have lived for so many years, you don't understand the principle of being at the mercy of others, right?!"

"I'll make it short. Your life or death now depends on my thoughts. If I want you to live, you can live; if I want you to die, you have to die!"

"If you don't believe me, just say 'no' and I will immediately put your spirit into the furnace to refine it!"

Xiang Cixianzun's face turned ashen and looked extremely ugly.

"The first question is, do you know about the events in the Jupiter Realm? Besides you, who else in the Origin Realm knows about it?!"

Ying Zheng asked Xiang Ci Xianzun.

"Boy, do you think I'm really afraid of you?!"

Xiang Cixianzun said with hatred.

"You are seeking your own death." Ying Zheng looked calm.

"Well, since you are so courageous, I will grant your wish."

After saying this, Ying Zheng's mind moved, and he directly suppressed the soul of Xiang Ci Xianzun and threw it into the fourth-level whirlpool for refining.

After Xiang Ci Xianzun's soul was thrown into the whirlpool, he was still struggling, but the power of the whirlpool pressed down little by little, crushing his soul alive.

"Ugh!!"

He roared and struggled at the Immortal Master Ci, but to no avail.

It is wishful thinking for a mere Yuan Ling to escape the refining of the whirlpool.

He could only try his best to crystallize his own spirit to resist the power of the whirlpool.

Unfortunately, even so, in the whirlpool, his soul was still being eroded bit by bit. If this continued, it would only be a matter of time before he was completely refined.

"Still want to hold on?!"

Ying Zheng snorted coldly.

His real body stretched out his hand and flicked his finger towards the fourth floor of the Hongmeng Glazed Tower.

A terrifying force slammed heavily into the crystallized Yuan Ling, destroying it alive!
After the Yuan Ling was shattered, it could no longer resist the refining of the whirlpool, and a large number of Yuan Ling were refined in an instant.

Xiang Cixianzun screamed in agony and was about to be reduced to ashes.

However, at this moment, Ying Zheng's mind moved, and he fished out the remaining soul of Xiang Ci Xianzun from the whirlpool.

The remaining soul of Immortal Xiang Ci fell back beside Taixuan.

Since a large number of Yuan Ling have been destroyed, the figure transformed from the Yuan Ling of Xiang Ci Xian Zun has become a little blurry.

"I'll give you another chance." Ying Zheng said coldly.

“I… I don’t accept…!” Immortal Master Xiang Ci still remained stubborn.

"Forget it. It seems that it's my fault for having expectations of you." Ying Zheng sighed helplessly.

However, at this moment, a voice sounded in Ying Zheng's mind across endless time and space.

"Release Xiang Ci and Tai Xuan."

As the voice sounded, a picture emerged in Ying Zheng's mind.

It was a world of ice and snow. Raging cold was the only theme of the world.

In the indescribable icy and snowy sky, a figure sat there alone. She seemed to be the only existence between heaven and earth.

She looked at Ying Zheng straight in the eye, with pure coldness in her eyes.

At this moment, in Ying Zheng's mind, he looked into those cold eyes.

"Ice-cold supreme master!" Ying Zheng's heart was slightly shaken.

That was the other party using unimaginable magical powers to communicate with him across a distant realm!
"I won't let you go for nothing. I owe you a favor and can agree to one of your requests." Binghan Juezun's voice sounded again.

"What if I don't let go?" Ying Zheng said in a serious tone.

"Well, forget it." Binghan Juezun's voice remained calm.

"Forget it...!" Ying Zheng couldn't help laughing for some reason.

Then he pondered for a moment and said, "I can let them go! But I want to know why?!"

"Yeah." Binghan Juezun's answer was still concise.

"We are all from the Hongmeng Universe, not enemies. The real enemy is in another world."

“Tai Xuan, I just came to Lingtai Star Region to select people who can support Hongmeng Mongolian City!”

"Hongmeng Mongolian City?" Ying Zheng was stunned.

"The border between the Hongmeng Universe and another universe." Binghan Juezun replied. "There, they have been fighting for hundreds of billions of years."

"Fighting against whom?!" Ying Zheng couldn't help but ask.

"Someone from another universe." Binghan Juezun replied.

"There is another universe?!" Ying Zheng was a little confused.

The Hongmeng Universe is boundless, and no one can reach its edge. Ying Zheng has always believed this.

As a result, now another universe has emerged.

"That is a universe that is on the verge of extinction. They don't have much time left. For them, our Hongmeng Universe is the only place they can take refuge." Binghan Juezun said.

"You mean they want to seize our Hongmeng Universe?!" Ying Zheng said subconsciously.

"Yes." Binghan Juezun replied.

"Hundreds of billions of years ago, some unknown masters sneaked into our Hongmeng Universe. Then they created a catastrophe and almost wiped out the Source World."

"But in the end, their plan failed."

"So the great war between the two universes lasted for a hundred billion years."

“In other words, we have held on for hundreds of billions of years. But now, it seems that Hongmeng Mongolian City is finally unable to hold on.”

Binghan Juezun's words were very calm, but it was these calm words that struck Ying Zheng's heart like a heavy hammer, causing him to feel a heavy weight.

A rather bad feeling spread in his heart.

"What will happen if we can't hold on?" Ying Zheng asked this question.

"Being extinct, losing this universe, and becoming a slave, you may be able to hide in the desolate and empty land at the edge of the Hongmeng Universe and hide there." Binghan Juezun replied.

"If that were the case, the situation would be very bad." Ying Zheng said with a wry smile.

After that, he sighed, "I understand, Taixuan and Xiangci, I will let them go."

"By the way, I have another question." Ying Zheng seemed to have suddenly thought of something and couldn't help but speak.

"You ask." Binghan Juezun responded.

"Why do you want to hide these things from us?" Ying Zheng asked the question in his mind. This was the thing that puzzled him the most.

Now he understood that the so-called catastrophe in the ancient world was probably caused by invaders from another universe back then.

But if that is the case, why don’t Binghan Jue Zun and Xiangci Xianzun make the truth of the matter public, but instead choose to hide it from everyone in the Source Realm?

This question caused Binghan Juezun to fall into silence.

After a long silence, she slowly spoke: "I didn't hide it, but... no one has ever asked me about it."

Ying Zheng was stunned.

There was a hint of innocence in Binghan Juezun's tone, as if she was a little girl who was misunderstood.

"What the hell am I asking you? You stay in the Great Frost Region all day long, and no one can get in! Even if someone can get in, they can't even see you! Even if someone really can get in front of you, they won't have the energy to speak! You are simply a big homebody!"

Ying Zheng was complaining wildly in his heart.

"You can't blame me for that..."

I don’t know if he could see through Ying Zheng’s thoughts, but Binghan Juezun’s resentful voice sounded again.

"I don't blame you, I don't blame you." Ying Zheng responded with a smile on the surface, but he complained even more in his heart.

Amidst Ying Zheng's crazy complaints, Binghan Juezun finally fell silent. Apparently, she had cut off the connection.

After Binghan Juezun cut off contact, Ying Zheng concentrated and thought for a moment, then flipped his palm and picked three leaves from the Tongtian Jianmu.

"Go!" Ying Zheng flicked his hand, and the three leaves instantly turned into three rays of light, rushing towards three different directions.

These three directions are exactly where the Taoist temples of Shi Mang, Tianhuang Dazun and Xichen Zhizun are located.

Ying Zheng was sending them a message, inviting them to come and discuss important matters.

After receiving the message from Ying Zheng, the three Shi Mang masters arrived one after another quickly.

After the three of them arrived, Ying Zheng repeated to them what Binghan Juezun had said before.

After hearing this, the three of them were all stunned.

After a long time, the three men came back to their senses, each looking more solemn than the other.

"If this is true, it is really a serious matter!" Tianhuang Dazun couldn't help but say.

"Another universe! The catastrophe that destroyed the ancient world was actually caused by people from another universe? Could it be that Binghan Juezun is lying to us?" Supreme Xichen said with some doubt.

"It's probably true. Otherwise, if Taixuan made a big fuss in the Source Realm, those old monsters in the Source Realm would not turn a blind eye." Shi Mang said.

After he finished speaking, everyone fell into silence again.

"According to Lord Binghan, our Hongmeng Universe may not be able to withstand the powerful enemies from other universes?" asked Lord Xichen.

"That's what I mean." Ying Zheng nodded.

"It's too bad! It's really too bad." Great Venerable Huang Tian said with a wry smile.

"Now I understand where the five Yuanzuns went back then." Shi Mang said with a sigh.

"If the magical powers of the five Yuanzuns are unable to resist the powerful enemies from the alien universe, then what's the point of us going to support them?" said Supreme Xi Chen.

"Not sure." Ying Zheng shook his head.

"Fellow Daoist Ying Zheng, this news of yours is like a bolt from the blue, hitting us directly on the head." Great Venerable Huang Tian said with a wry smile.

Ying Zheng shrugged helplessly.

"So now, Taixuan and Xiangci, are you going to let them go?"

Ying Zheng asked.

"Let him go." Lord Huang Tian said helplessly.

"Yeah." Shi Mang nodded.

"We have no choice but to let him go." Supreme Xi Chen said with the same wry smile.

"Okay, since you all say so, I will let them go." Ying Zheng said.

Afterwards, he summoned the Hongmeng Glazed Tower, and with a thought, he released the spirits of Xiang Ci and Taixuan.

Xiang Ci and Tai Xuan were suddenly released. They were a little confused for a moment. They didn't expect that things would take such a turn.

"Binghan Juezun begged me to spare your lives, so get out of here!" Ying Zheng said bluntly.

"You...!" Taixuan and Xiangci's faces turned extremely ugly on the spot.

"Our treasure!" Xiang Ci said gritting his teeth.

Tianhuang Dazun and the others looked at each other, and finally threw away the treasures of Taixuan and Xiangci that they had previously seized.

The same was true for Ying Zheng. Of course, several of the treasures had been broken into pieces.

"The mountains remain green, the water flows on. Goodbye!"

After getting back their Hongmeng treasures, the two of them didn't say anything else. They just bowed to Ying Zheng and the others, and then the two Yuan Lings turned around and turned into light and left.

"If we let them go like this, we don't know if they will come back for revenge." Supreme Xi Chen sighed.

"I'll give them a chance, only this time. If they dare to come back for revenge, then next time, even if the emperor comes to plead for mercy, I will kill them without hesitation." Ying Zheng said firmly.

"Yes." Tianhuang Dazun and the others all nodded.

Then, Great Venerable Tianhuang said, "Letting go of Venerables Xiang Ci and Tai Xuan is also a helpless move. But regarding the matter of the alien universe, I think we should discuss it again."

"What do you mean?" Ying Zheng asked.

"What should we do in the future?" said Great Lord Tianhuang silently.

"There are only two options: fight or escape," Ying Zheng said.

"If we fight, what are our chances of winning? If we escape, where should we escape to?" asked Supreme Xi Chen.

"I don't know what the chances of winning are. But we are friends for life and death, so I won't hide it from you. Judging from what Binghan Juezun said, the situation in Hongmeng Mongolian City may be a little critical. But it is definitely not a matter of urgency, otherwise, Binghan Juezun would not still be staying in the Great Cold Region. With her cultivation level, she should have gone to Hongmeng Mongolian City long ago." Ying Zheng said.

"As for escaping, the alien universe is attacking the entire universe. If we lose, the best outcome is that we become the other side's vassal. If the other side is more vicious, it will most likely completely wipe out and destroy the civilization of our universe. And we will most likely either be reduced to ashes or become slaves."

"If you want to escape, you can only escape to the desolate and empty places at the edge of the Hongmeng Universe, and hide in the void from now on."

"That's just like a rat, hiding in a corner and surviving!" said Tianhuang Dazun.

"That's about it." Ying Zheng said, "But it's not completely hopeless."

There is no doubt about this.

The Hongmeng universe is vast and boundless.

No one knows how vast that empty and chaotic area is.

If you really want to hide, find a remote area, create a world by yourself, and then hide in it. Naturally, there will be no problem.

After all, now, in the void of the Hongmeng Universe, there must be some Hunyuan Supremes living in the chaotic void, just like the Dayuo Supreme.

"This is not a good idea." Tianhuang Dazun said silently with a serious expression.

"Life in the Source Realm is naturally much better than hiding in a place like the Void Chaos." Ying Zheng responded.

"In fact, it's useless for us to think about these things now. If the situation in Hongmeng City is really urgent and we need to help, then we will naturally go to support it. If we really can't defeat the alien universe, then we can only hide in the wilderness of the universe and practice hard. The practice of dying for one's ideals is really not advisable."
