Emperor Wu Shihuang's handwriting, do not go out of the Milky Way border

Moreover, Ying Zheng did not believe that the Old Man of the Midnight was much stronger than himself. How could he possibly escape from the fallen being transformed from a ninth-level cosmic powerhouse? Even Ying Zheng could only block one move from the Supreme Venerable. Moreover, after falling, the power of the Thousand-Faced Shadow would only become stronger.

Therefore, someone must have intervened to stop the Thousand-Faced Shadow, allowing the Old Man of the Night to escape. Thinking this, Ying Zheng's gaze towards the Old Man of the Night held a hint of hostility: "You're not hiding anything, are you?"

Seeing the extreme distrust in Ying Zheng's eyes, the Old Man of the Night said with displeasure, "How could that be? With the contract in place, how could I dare to deceive you!"

Ying Zheng thought so too. If the power of the contract were to take effect, the Old Man of the Night would definitely be either dead or maimed. If the strange power were to press its advantage then, he would surely be mutated and fall into an abyss of no return.

Therefore, if he wasn't lying and deliberately concealing something, then the person who made the move was extremely secretive. "Tell me in detail about how the Thousand-Faced Shadow was chasing you!" Ying Zheng suddenly said.

Upon hearing this, the Old Man of the Night was no fool and quickly understood Ying Zheng's suspicion: "You mean that someone blocked the Thousand-Faced Shadow, which is why I was able to escape his pursuit?"

“Not bad, you’re not completely stupid. You should have felt the power of a great being. Compare yourself to the Thousand-Faced Shadow, and you should understand that you have no chance of escaping from the fallen Thousand-Faced Shadow!” Ying Zheng pointed out the flaw in this matter without hesitation.

The Old Man of the Midnight fell into deep thought: "But the Thousand-Faced Shadow I encountered was very weak, only slightly stronger than me. That's why I didn't suspect anything. But now, after hearing what you've said, it is indeed highly suspicious!"

Just as the Old Man of the Polar Night was lost in thought, suddenly, the entire Polar Night City shook violently. "Bang!" The billions of living beings living within the Polar Night City were thrown into utter panic.

The City of Polar Night instantly activated its protective array, a barrier formed from the vast life force enveloping the entire city. "Boom!" A deafening roar echoed through the heavens as bizarre creatures surged forth like a tidal wave, relentlessly assaulting the City of Polar Night. Hundreds of millions of figures, each millions of feet tall, stretched for light-years, comparable to small worlds.

The largest of these creatures was the octopus, whose enormous tentacles almost covered the entire city of Polar Night. "Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!" Liquid dripped from the claws and teeth beneath the tentacles, corroding the life barrier carved into the city of Polar Night.

Feeling the tremors of the life barrier, it wasn't just these fallen creatures impacting it; blood-red moonlight also poured down, assaulting the city of polar night, attempting to transform all living beings into bizarre and corrupt entities.

"How is this possible? The full moon has arrived so quickly? The Blood Moon Mother is about to awaken! The time for unleashing the Blood Moon Frenzy has been brought forward so much. I still have so many preparations to make. What should I do now?!" The Old Man of the Midnight Night paced anxiously back and forth in the living room.

Then, he looked at Ying Zheng, his eyes filled with expectation: "Now that the Blood Moon Tide has begun, I hope you will lend a hand. Otherwise, if the City of Polar Night is destroyed, our strength will be in even greater danger!"

Although he hadn't experienced the blood moon frenzy firsthand, Ying Zheng felt the crimson light eroding him as a wisp of his divine sense pierced through his life barrier. The eerie power directly crept towards him along his spiritual tendrils. In a daze, Ying Zheng seemed to see a young girl sleeping in the blood moon, lazily stretching, her delicate eyes radiating an empty light when she opened them.

This is also a bizarre being transformed from a powerful being who has fallen and exists solely on instinct, lacking its own will. Moreover, her strength far surpasses that of the Heavenly One Saint Lord. How terrifying is the eerie power that such a terrifying being unleashes each time it awakens!
"Alright, I will help!" Ying Zheng solemnly agreed to the request of the Old Man of the Night to join forces.

"Bang...bang..." At the same time, El Baden, standing behind Ying Zheng, looked at him with longing eyes, then knelt heavily on the ground with a thud and kowtowed frantically, pleading, "Please, Your Majesty, save my people!"

El Baden knew his small tribe would be utterly destroyed by the blood moon's ravages. He estimated that many of his people were already drawn by the moonlight, their strange powers corrupted and leading them astray. As the tribe's strongest member, and being absent from the tribe, he was powerless to stop it.

Seeing this, Ying Zheng looked at him with pity and said, "You should have spatial markers, right? I can transfer them all here!"

Upon hearing this, El Baden's face lit up with wild joy, and he used his own blood as a catalyst to condense his bloodline coordinates: "Please, my lord, make your move!"

Ying Zheng sensed this coordinate location, and a holy power began to surge above his head. The Holy Lamp of Light stood there, its light protecting Ying Zheng and spreading along with his power. Under the protection of the light, a wisp of Ying Zheng's power and will traversed endless void to reach the coordinate location. Seeing the chaotic camp, the colossal hand that blotted out the sky instantly descended upon it.

Wherever the giant hand touched, all corrupted beings were instantly annihilated, their blood splattering across the ground. The invisible, eerie power was purified by the power of light. Afterwards, Ying Zheng gathered the remaining tens of thousands of residents and returned directly to the City of Polar Night.

Everyone scattered in the hall in front of the city lord's mansion watched as Ying Zheng's figure stood firm, and behind him stood the tribal chief, El Baden. They knelt on the ground, kowtowing with immense gratitude: "Thank you for saving us, my lord!"

Meanwhile, the Old Man of the Polar Night coldly observed everything before him: "Fellow Daoist, you are truly kind-hearted!"

Since arriving in this world, he had witnessed the destruction of countless large and small tribes, and even cities. Countless years ago, besides his city of the Midnight Sun, a small town stood in this wasteland of bones, inhabited by billions of beings. But with each successive surge of blood moons, they were all wiped out, leaving only the city of the Midnight Sun standing strong.

"It's just a small matter that I did on the spur of the moment, and there's no danger involved!" Ying Zheng said casually and nonchalantly.

However, Al Baden, standing behind Ying Zheng, said with gratitude and respect, "Even if it was just a small favor for you, senior, I can never repay this kindness, even if I acknowledge you as my master and serve you for the rest of my life!"

"If you can leave, you might still have a chance to repay the debt, but for now, let's deal with the blood moon frenzy first." Ying Zheng looked up, his expression solemn as he gazed at the blood moon overhead.

Leaving aside whether the Blood Moon Mother—that incredibly terrifying being—will awaken, the corrupted beings summoned by the Blood Moon, driven mad, and attacking the City of Midnight are enough to keep them occupied.

"Radiant Feast!" Ying Zheng activated the Holy Lamp of Light, using its holy purifying power to deal with these fallen beings, which would be twice as effective with half the effort.

The moment his immense power surged into the Holy Lamp of Light, an incomparably holy and radiant power emanated from it, and the vast radiant flames illuminated almost the entire city of polar night.

Fortunately, Ying Zheng controlled the power of the Holy Lamp of Light; otherwise, apart from beings at the fifth level or above of the cosmic level, all other living beings would probably have been completely purified by the Holy Lamp.

"Roar!" Countless fallen creatures melted away inch by inch before this vast radiant purifying power.

All living beings frantically tried to escape into the depths of the earth, but even so, it was of no use in the face of the holy light that could penetrate the world.

At this moment, the power of the Holy Lamp of Light seemed to replace the Blood Moon, becoming the great sun illuminating the world.

The eerie power that permeated the world began to be purified at this moment.

However, the appearance of the Holy Lamp of Light seems to have triggered a strange change in the power of the Bone Wasteland.

Strange creatures from other places also began to converge on the land of polar night.

Meanwhile, many strange creatures that followed the strange power fled towards the city of polar night.

Meanwhile, the towering mountain in the distance seemed to pierce through this world.

It seemed to have awakened, its eyes, seemingly piercing through eternity, gazing upon this land and toward the city of polar night.

Moreover, the beautiful figure above the blood moon was also slightly moved at this moment.

At this moment, the strongest being, the Old Man of the Midnight, who had been staying there the whole time, suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. He looked up at the void, his eyes filled with fear, and immediately grabbed Ying Zheng's arm, saying, "No, we can't continue like this, something's not right!"

He watched as the power gradually surged from afar, exuding an ancient and timeless aura, and the slender figure within the blood moon grew increasingly solid, as if it might awaken from the blood moon at any moment.

The Old Man of the Night knew he couldn't continue any longer. If Ying Zheng were to unleash the full power of the Holy Lamp of Light, it would surely awaken those terrifying beings.

At that point, they will have no strength to resist, and even if they have some trump cards, they will not be able to use them.

Therefore, the Old Man of the Midnight said sharply, "Stop! We can't keep activating the Holy Lamp of Light. If we continue like this, we'll attract the attention of those beings, and we'll all die here!"

With the help of the Holy Light Lamp, Ying Zheng also saw the faint shadows standing in the distance and the beautiful figure on the blood moon.

Therefore, Ying Zheng wisely listened to the Old Man of the Night and put away the Holy Lamp of Light.

Without the guidance of the Holy Lamp of Light, the figure gradually awakening in the Blood Moon and the immortal being standing in the distance on the Bone Wasteland, their gradually awakening will once again fall into slumber.

At the same time, the Old Man of the Night used his sinister power, which was eroding himself, to begin transforming the defensive forces of the City of the Night.

The city in the polar night was truly captivating!
Only after the two ancient and weathered figures gradually looked away did Ying Zheng and the Old Man of the Night breathe a sigh of relief.

"It seems that this Holy Lamp of Light cannot be used lightly," Ying Zheng said.

"But what should we do next in the face of the Blood Moon Frenzy?" the Old Man of the Polar Night said worriedly.

Without the power of light that attracts strange forces, the beautiful figure above the blood moon seemed to have returned to its original state.

The towering, immortal mountain in the distance still stands unmoved.

However, the power emanating from the blood moon became increasingly terrifying as the moon rose higher.

That eerie power of immortality, filled with filth and depravity, corrupts countless living beings, driving them mad.

At all times, corrupt beings are born from this strange power, following the chaotic will.

Under the blood moon, these creatures embark on their own revelry.

Meanwhile, the strange creatures that had been purified by the power of light began to converge on the City of Polar Night once again.

As the eerie power flowed through this area, it grew increasingly intense, attracting countless newborn, eerie creatures.

The arrival of these strange creatures will also attract even stronger predators.

As time went on, more and more bizarre and corrupted creatures gathered here.

This is simply not enough to completely seal them off. You must know that every brick on the walls of the City of the Midnight is a small world, enough to seal those strange creatures.

With the help of the great array inscribed on this city of polar night, all the soldiers on the walls could do this.

But this also requires a lot of their mental energy.

Driving the sealing power of this great formation is by no means an easy task.

"Hongmeng Seal, Seal!" A faint purple light began to appear on Ying Zheng's hand, each wisp of purple light seemingly transforming into a world.

Wherever the purple light reached, all the strange creatures it touched were sealed away.

If it weren't for the suppression from the Dark World, Ying Zheng's strength would be even more terrifying; right now, he can't even unleash 70% of his full power.

"This can't go on!" Ying Zheng said with an extremely solemn expression.

“That’s right, these sealed strange creatures also need to be dealt with. In the past, I would throw them into the Holy Altar, but with such a large number of strange creatures, the Holy Altar simply cannot purify them in a short time!” The Old Man of the Midnight Night was so worried that his hair was almost falling out.

Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng's eyes showed surprise: "Holy Altar, purification, what's going on? Why don't I know about this?"

“Oh, I forgot to tell you, this sacred altar, according to those dark beings, suddenly appeared tens of trillions of years ago, which left a glimmer of hope for those strange creatures in the dark world,” the Old Man of the Night explained.

"Otherwise, how do you think they've survived in this world filled with bizarre powers?"

"Moreover, although the Holy Altar can purify strange creatures, its purification method is completely different from that of the Holy Lamp of Light. Come on, I'll take you to see it now."

"You're only telling me this now? It's so important!" Ying Zheng asked, his eyes wide with disbelief.

Upon hearing this, the Old Man of the Polar Night sighed helplessly, "There's nothing I can do. We haven't spent much time together yet, and the Blood Moon surge came too suddenly, so there are many things I can't explain to you in detail!"

With a single step, the two of them instantly appeared before the sacred altar standing in the center of the City of Polar Night. The entire altar emitted a milky white, shimmering light, completely out of place with the eerie power surrounding it.

Moreover, it absorbs strange power, and brilliant crystals are constantly being born. These crystals are spirit stones formed from the pure primordial energy that remains after the strange power has been removed.

These spirit stones are also essential for the cultivation of these beings; they cannot absorb those strange powers to increase their strength. (End of Chapter)
