Otherwise, it will gradually lead itself into darkness, eventually becoming a bizarre and depraved creature devoid of any reason.

Looking at the mountain of crystals before him, Ying Zheng reached out and examined them. They were indeed pure spiritual energy, without the slightest trace of strange power.

He looked at the sacred altar in front of him, which was as big as the world. Although it was compressed here and looked only a few hundred meters in diameter, its interior was incredibly vast and could hold billions of living beings.

Soldiers constantly drop bricks that have been replaced on the city wall here, and as they ripple with a milky white light, a strange power is transformed.

This way of operating is completely different from the purifying power of the Holy Lamp of Light. The fact that this sacred altar exists is definitely not due to the ancient clansmen.

"This might be something created by the powerful beings who survived the Dark World civilization!" Ying Zheng said solemnly.

"That's right, that's what I guessed too, and it's even more likely that it's the great sun that manifested during the day at dusk."

"After all, the strange power emanating from that twilight sun was extremely weak, which was definitely the result of suppression by a powerful being!" the Old Man of the Midnight added solemnly.

At the same time, the dark, twilight sun in the void gradually appeared in the sky, as if trying to push the blood moon down.

Two immense wills erupted instantly, vying for dominance, but the aura of the twilight sun was far more terrifying, leaving the sleeping Blood Moon Mother's will powerless and furious.

As the sun rose high in the twilight, suppressing the blood moon, the omnipresent eerie force gradually began to dissipate.

At the same time, all the strange creatures felt unwell and quickly returned to their lairs, seeking a place with strong eerie power to hide in.

The will that awakened within this twilight sun murmured to itself, "How interesting. There are actually people who have been able to research a way to purify strange power. However, this method is completely different from the one we used. Perhaps it is a turning point."

"However, we're being targeted by those guys now, so we can't take the initiative to make contact. We can only let them come to us!"

After leaving those words, the will within this twilight sun gradually began to subside.

At the same time, the Old Man of the Polar Night breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the sun rise at dusk. If it had continued any longer, the entire sealing wall of the Polar Night City would have been filled with bricks.

Looking at the busy soldiers before him, Ying Zheng turned to the Old Man of the Night and pleaded, "Now that the twilight sun has risen, the situation outside is a little safer. Please take me to the altar you mentioned!"

After Ying Zheng spoke, the Old Man of the Night looked slightly uneasy, after all, he never wanted to go to that hellish place again in his life.

Ying Zheng quickly noticed the concerns of the Old Man of the Night: "If there are any powerful beings who have survived, they are most likely to be around that altar."

"After all, that altar is obviously extremely important. They were able to develop a plan to purify the strange power. With my Holy Lamp of Light, perhaps we can remove the strange power from your body. Then you can leave this hellish place with me!"

Upon hearing this, the Old Man of the Night's pupils contracted, and a faint look of longing appeared in his eyes. Even if there was only a sliver of hope, he would do everything in his power to grasp it.

Moreover, based on his speculation, what Ying Zheng said was not without reason.

So after much deliberation, the Old Man of the Polar Night gritted his teeth and said with utmost solemnity, "Alright, this time I will risk my life to accompany you on this journey!"

A solemn look appeared in Ying Zheng's eyes: "In that case, let's set off!"

Then, the two of them transformed into streaks of light and headed straight into the depths of the Bone Wasteland.

They moved cautiously, and the Old Man of the Night took the opportunity to explain to Ying Zheng, "I estimate that the barrier of this Bone Wasteland exists to protect that altar and also to prevent the creatures here from going out and causing trouble!"

Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng fell into deep thought. Based on the guess made by the Old Man of the Night, it was indeed very likely.

After years of hiding, passing through endless spatial rifts and traversing countless worlds and planes, they finally arrived before that eerie altar.

This place can be described as a void, filled with an incredibly dense and eerie power, enough to instantly corrupt ordinary beings into bizarre creatures.

Ying Zheng and his companions could only barely move around here by gathering terrifying and dense eerie power around themselves and disguising themselves as their own kind.

Countless strange creatures in this area fell silent, and as far as the eye could see, a blood moon could be seen existing there.

The girl in the painting is so lifelike that she seems ready to step out of the moon at any moment.

Beside the Blood Moon, the immortal and majestic mountains seemed to connect to countless worlds, supporting the existence of this dark universe.

The overwhelming aura emanating from these two figures was enough to crush them, which made Ying Zheng and the Old Man of the Night even more cautious in their actions.

If one of them is accidentally awakened, it could plunge them into an abyss of no return.

Ying Zheng and his companions were only able to cautiously pass under the watchful eyes of the Heavenly One Saint Lord by relying on the jade tablet given to them to conceal their aura.

In this region, countless worlds and planes intertwine and overlap. To Ying Zheng and the others, the altar seemed close at hand, but in reality, the distance between them was far beyond what they could possibly reach.

However, even so, Ying Zheng and his companions never considered giving up. They proceeded cautiously, determined to reach the altar and uncover the secrets hidden in this universe.

Upon entering this world, the countless dark and eerie forces flowing through it seemed to be touched by the aura emanating from the Old Man of the Midnight.

A strange, overwhelming force surged forth instantly, as if a chaotic will was quietly awakening in the darkness.

"not good!"

The Old Man of the Polar Night sensed something amiss, and an ominous premonition welled up within him. Immediately, he mustered all his strength to try and seal his presence:
"The seal of life is activated!"

Although he didn't know what exactly was on his body that had triggered the strange power lurking in this world, sealing off his aura was undoubtedly the right choice at the moment.

"Hongmeng Seal, activate!"

Seeing this, Ying Zheng also unleashed the Primordial Seal, with a shimmering purple light surrounding the Old Man of the Night, sealing him off completely.

Unfortunately, they were a step too late. The moment the Old Man of the Night stepped into this world, he touched the chaotic yet majestic will that resided there.

Countless shadows and streaks of light began to swirl and converge in this world, forming a shadowy cocoon that revealed a strange and powerful force.

The moment the Shadow Cocoon was formed, both Ying Zheng and the Old Man of the Night felt as if their souls and shadows were about to be absorbed into it.

That overwhelming power filled them with fear, and even the usually composed Ying Zheng couldn't help but feel nervous at this moment.

"This is the power of the Thousand-Faced Shadow. Although I have removed the mark from you, the residual power is still difficult to erase. Now that we have stepped into the territory of the Thousand-Faced Shadow, we have triggered this power, and it is about to awaken!"

Ying Zheng quickly realized the identity of the owner of this will and understood the ins and outs of this incident.

At this moment, the Old Man of the Polar Night showed a look of fear on his face and asked anxiously:

"What should we do now? This area has been sealed off, turned into a shadow prison. With our current strength, we simply cannot tear through the prison and leave here!"

Ying Zheng said resolutely:
"Then we have no choice but to attack it before it fully awakens, to catch it off guard, and break through the seal of this world to escape. Otherwise, once it fully awakens, we will all die. Don't hesitate, let's raise the Holy Lamp of Light together!" Then, the Holy Lamp of Light above Ying Zheng's head faintly floated out from his sea of ​​consciousness, and incomparably sacred power showered down on the two of them, stabilizing the shadows that were being drawn.

It should be understood that a shadow is also a part of the soul, and if it were absorbed by the Thousand-Faced Shadow, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The old man of the polar night sighed helplessly:

"Although I had anticipated encountering such a terrifying being, I was still caught off guard when I actually faced it. Now I can only do as you suggest, and I hope it works!"

The Old Man of the Night and Ying Zheng poured their divine power into the Holy Lamp of Light. The Holy Lamp of Light shone brightly, and wherever it went, all the shadowy and eerie forces retreated.

"Woo..."

At the same time, a strange and sharp howl rang out, mixed with murmurs, containing an extremely crazy and chaotic will.

The sound seemed to be shaking the souls of Ying Zheng and the Old Man of the Night, trying to pull them into endless chaos and eeriness.

The eerie power within this world grew increasingly intense, beginning to suppress the radiance of the Holy Lamp of Light.

However, the Holy Lamp of Light seemed to be provoked, frantically drawing away the divine power of Ying Zheng and the Old Man of the Night.

Ying Zheng and the Old Man of the Night gritted their teeth and did not stop transmitting divine power.

After the Holy Lamp of Light absorbed enough divine power, vast and mysterious patterns suddenly appeared in the direction of the lamp.

This pattern radiates a holy and majestic power, like a blazing sun. As the pattern illuminates, the power of the Holy Lamp of Light erupts once more.

"Boom!"

"Hey!"

At the same time, a long sigh filled with pity seemed to echo from the void. The phantom of the Holy Lamp of Light, ancient and ancient, appeared and disappeared in the void.

Upon seeing Gu Si, Ying Zheng's eyes lit up with delight. After all, Gu Si's origins were extremely mysterious; he was at least a being who could be considered a supreme being among the ninth-level cosmic-level powerhouses.

"Brother Gu Si, please lend me a hand!"

Ying Zheng quickly spoke up to make the request.

The phantom of Gu Si looked at Ying Zheng and sighed helplessly:

"This is just a wisp of divine power that I previously stored here. It can't help you much; at most, it can only severely injure it. You must seize the opportunity!"

After Gu Si explained, Ying Zheng and the Old Man of the Night exchanged a glance, their eyes both revealing surprise and delight:
"We understand. Please, Brother Gu Si, lend a hand!"

"Purify!"

The words, like the voice of the Great Dao, echoed, and a purifying power of light and holiness emerged. At this moment, the Holy Lamp of Light was like a great sun, illuminating this world, but only within this realm, without affecting the outside world.

"Boom!"

The Holy Lamp of Light condensed into a pillar of radiance, instantly piercing through the shadowy cocoon!

The Thousand-Faced Shadow, slumbering amidst the power of shadow, is awakened from its slumber by the impact of this power of light.

"Ah!"

A sharp, long howl rang out, and the body, composed of endless dark power, crumbled one after another before the purifying power of light.

Ying Zheng and the Old Man of the Night watched the battle intently, feeling the Thousand Faces being impacted. Thousands of faces flowed within him, each of their wills no less powerful than theirs.

Upon seeing this, Ying Zheng made his own guess about the origin of the Thousand-Faced Shadow.

Perhaps it was born from the fusion of the power, soul, and true spirit of countless powerful beings at the eighth level of the universe after they perished due to the strange corrosive power, and was further sublimated by the strange power.

At the same time, as the power of the Radiant Pillar began to decline, Gu Si sighed helplessly, "In the end, I underestimated it. Brother Ying Zheng, I can no longer help you!"

Having said that, Gu Si's figure instantly dissipated. Without Gu Si's power to support it, the mighty power of the Holy Lamp of Light to suppress the world began to dissipate.

The Old Man of the Night stared in terror at the gradually recovering Thousand-Faced Shadow, his heart filled with dread. He then turned to Ying Zheng and asked:
“What should I do now?”

Ying Zheng solemnly toyed with the jade pendant at his waist, pondering whether to use this trump card.

Seeing Ying Zheng hesitate, the Old Man of the Night knew he still had a trump card up his sleeve, and a surge of secret joy welled up within him. He anxiously said:

"Fellow Daoist Ying Zheng, now is not the time to hesitate. Use whatever trump cards you have, otherwise, with our strength, we will not be able to escape this shadowy prison!"

Upon hearing the Old Man of the Night's urging, Ying Zheng knew that what he said was true.

So, with great reluctance, Ying Zheng summoned the jade pendant and infused it with power. The pendant then began to emanate an immense and boundless power, the power belonging to the Heavenly One Holy Lord.

The power that the Holy Lord of Heaven had sealed within this jade pendant is now being guided and is beginning to revive under Ying Zheng's guidance.

The jade pendant gradually floated up, and a vast and majestic power emerged, condensing into the illusory figure of the Heavenly Saint Lord.

The Holy Master of Heaven looked around at the scenery, his eyes filled with shock and astonishment.

He recalled what was recorded on the item he had received:
"The situation is worse than I thought!"

"Heavenly Fire - Slash!"

A faint voice rang out, and endless Heavenly Sacred Flame, aided by countless fuels, burned fiercely, transforming into a Heavenly Flame Blade that instantly slashed towards the endless void.

"Qiang!"

Wherever the blade's light touched, everything was torn apart, carrying an overbearing power that could cut through anything. Even space itself collapsed, and the dark and eerie power was annihilated!
Faced with this blade of light, the Thousand-Faced Shadow could only flee frantically.

The Heavenly Sacred Flame burns with the Great Dao as its fuel, possessing the characteristic of being immortal and indestructible; it can only be sealed away.

But the Thousand-Faced Shadow, devoid of reason and reduced to a chaotic madness, knew nothing of sealing techniques and could only frantically flee, attempting to escape the scorching heat of the Heavenly Sacred Flame.

At the same time, the Old Man of the Night and Ying Zheng, seeing the shadow prison torn apart, transformed into streams of light and quickly fled towards the outside of the shadow prison.

The jade pendant, suspended in mid-air, followed Ying Zheng's movements, leaving the Shadow Prison behind, leaving only the Thousand-Faced Shadow to suffer the scorching heat of the Heavenly Sacred Fire within the prison. (End of Chapter)
