The Great Ruler wanted to lie down but was thrown into the Spirit Road.

"thump……"

Yun Mo and Wen Qingxuan appeared directly in the space of the jade wall, and then fell straight into the purple pool below.

After falling into the pool, Wen Qingxuan clearly felt the overwhelming power that made the space feel stagnant. It was an imperial might that reached the heavens and the earth, but this imperial might was not directed at him.

Instead, it went straight to the mark between Yun Mo's eyebrows.

Wen Qingxuan struggled to Yun Mo's side and helped him up. Seeing the bloodstains on the lines between his brows, her eyes revealed a worry unlike anything she'd seen before. "The jade disc you had earlier was the imperial seal of the ancient Ziwei Emperor? Then what is this?"

Yun Mo's face was pale, and two extremely terrifying intents were clashing between his brows.

Now, the messages from the jade disc are also entering his mind one by one.

He finally understood. As he entered the depths of the temple, the mark of the extraterrestrial evil race happened to collide with the Purple Emperor Seal that was floating in the void of the temple. The two were awakened by each other's aura almost simultaneously, triggering their respective forces of suppression and resistance.

Emperor Ziwei was also an ancient supreme being who resisted the evil races from beyond the realm. On his own continent, he fought to the death against the evil races without retreating. His unparalleled imperial might made those evil demon emperors even more terrified.

The fragments of the Imperial Seal had accompanied the Great Emperor for countless years, almost imprinting his magnificent life. They were also extremely familiar with the extraterrestrial evil races, and therefore, upon sensing their aura, they would immediately want to suppress them.

Although this fragment of the imperial seal is not large, the imperial might it contains is still immense.

Just like the purple pool now, it is entirely the result of the materialization of the Emperor's will.

Yun Mo turned to look at Wen Qingxuan, his throat dry, and said, "The jade disc is indeed a fragment of the Emperor's Seal of the Ziwei Emperor. This is the internal space of the fragment, and this pool is the Creation Pool formed by the Emperor's will."

"Ahem... Don't worry about me, I'm fine. This Pool of Creation is an unimaginable opportunity. It tempers your body with the will of the Supreme God, unleashing your untapped potential and changing your foundation. Seize this opportunity, don't worry about me."

After saying this, Yun Mo took a deep breath and immediately sat down cross-legged, his brow furrowing violently.

Looking at his expression, Wen Qingxuan clenched her hands tightly, her nails digging into her palms and drawing blood.

But then she did notice that Yun Mo's breathing had begun to calm down, so she pursed her lips and sat down cross-legged not far from him.

However, as soon as she sat down cross-legged, she truly encountered that overwhelming imperial might, which caused her expression to change. She tightened her grip on her heart, gritted her teeth, and slowly guided the imperial intent in the pool to cleanse herself.

A wisp of imperial might is enough to collapse heaven and earth. Fortunately, the imperial will in the pool seems to have its own consciousness, or rather, after the fragments of the imperial seal were awakened, a trace of consciousness remained.

It suppressed the imperial will in the pool from the very beginning, and upon seeing the scene that followed, it also spared its attention to take care of Wen Qingxuan's situation, protecting her and helping her with the baptism.

After that, it poured most of its energy and the Emperor's will into Yun Mo's brow, its instincts leading it to confront the evil aura head-on.

The mark between Yun Mo's brows also became a battlefield at this moment.

The Emperor's will and the Demon Emperor's mark clashed in a terrifying confrontation, causing Yun Mo's weak soul to tremble. It was only because the jade wall protected him that he did not immediately collapse.

However, this Demon Emperor's Mark was ultimately imprinted by more than ten Demon Emperors. Even though it was just a mark of hatred, it remained as solid as a rock and could not be erased or suppressed by the will of a single Great Emperor, Ziwei.

Yun Mo should also be thankful that these marks were indeed as recorded, without any of the Demon Emperor's methods. Otherwise, if the two had really fought inside his body, even with the jade disc protecting him, it would have been futile.

I don't know whether encountering this jade disc is a good thing or a bad thing.

"No, this Demon Emperor's mark still affects my mind. If one day I am careless, I am afraid I will still be swayed by the mark and lean towards the evil race from beyond the realm. In fact, if these marks erupt when I break through my realm in the future... I will have no way to resist them."

This was something he had to admit; the Demon Emperor's mark was like a venomous snake lurking in the shadows, ready to deliver a fatal blow and corrupt him at any moment.

Upon closer examination, this was merely an early outbreak of the crisis.

Just like now, the Emperor's suppression has caused the mark to begin to rebel, spreading an evil aura that disturbs his mind, making him sometimes clear-headed and sometimes demonic.

If he can stay true to himself now, then he will be confident that he will not lose his way in the future.

If he were to give up now, then the Demon Emperor's will would instantly erode him, erase all his consciousness, and turn him into another being.

This was a crisis he absolutely could not accept, and he could only bite his tongue hard in an attempt to resist it.

Just as Yun Mo was fighting desperately, Yu Bi's remaining consciousness sensed the turmoil in Yun Mo's mind and directly transmitted a divine thought, which merged into his soul.

Yun Mo was taken aback, but he also knew that this might be the key to breaking the deadlock.

Without hesitation, he focused all his energy on this divine thought, trying to decipher its mysteries. He wanted to find the key to guarding his mind before his pupils turned completely black.

This divine thought was precisely a Great Emperor's technique.

"The Purple Star Emperor's Technique, Rectify the Mind!" Yun Mo murmured to himself.

The Ziwei Emperor's Technique is an unparalleled divine art created by the Ziwei Emperor. It possesses both the ability to assist and the power to kill enemies.

It has six forms in total, with "Zhengxin" being the fourth.

As the name suggests, rectifying one's heart allows one to firmly uphold one's original intentions, so that no matter what evil spirits in the world may appear, they cannot shake one's resolve. For those evil spirits, this is their natural enemy and supernatural power.

After an unknown amount of time, Yun Mo, taking advantage of the rich imperial aura here, displayed his astonishing talent and began to deduce this divine power at a speed that others could not match. He did not need to be proficient, nor could he master such a profound technique in such a short time.

But he only needs to learn a tiny bit to keep himself from getting lost.

"Buzz..."

Yun Mo made hand seals, gradually increasing the speed, causing profound auras to emerge from his hands and spread outwards. This allowed the remaining imperial intent in the space to dance with his fingertips, and also allowed the imperial intent in the Creation Pool to wash over his entire body.

"Boom!"

The imperial will within his body began to surge violently. Yun Mo gritted his teeth and held fast to his soul, ultimately using a tiny bit of power to slowly strengthen this will.

Finally, the power of the mark began to weaken slowly in the confrontation with the Emperor's will, and his mind began to slowly return, finally forming a stalemate with the Demon Emperor's mark.

The Emperor's will could not erase the mark in the end, but it could stop it when it erupted again, protecting Yun Mo's last bit of consciousness.

At least this way, when Yun Mo breaks through, he can rely on his own will to avoid completely losing his way and falling into depravity.

"I don't even know how to describe this situation. I encountered a fragment of the God's Seal, which triggered its suppression of the Demon Emperor's Mark, almost killing me. But thanks to this suppression, the problem with the Mark erupted ahead of time and was resolved. Should I consider this a stroke of luck amidst misfortune? A blessing in disguise?"

Yun Mo slowly opened his eyes and the first thing he saw was Wen Qingxuan in front of him. She had also woken up and the worry on her face was clearly visible.

"I'm fine now, I just overexerted myself." Yun Mo looked at her, a faint smile appearing on his pale face, and struggled to get up.

But the moment he stood up, everything went black before his eyes. Due to the exhaustion of his spiritual power, he felt dizzy and fell towards Wen Qingxuan. Not only that, but his robe also shattered and turned into nothingness.

The impact of the pool water was ultimately beyond what his ordinary clothes could withstand.
