“Attack the Continent of Grey Mists!”

“Kill!”

“We must not allow the Grey Emperor to ascend as the Dark Heavenly Emperor, or our era will descend into chaos!”

In the Kunlun Realm, millions of troops have already assembled.

Fire Spirit, Mu Qianning, Mu Wanqing, and Wu Xiaokun have all returned.

“Set out… to Grey Mists Continent!”

Facing the vast army, Fire Spirit gave the command to advance!

“Miss Ling’er, if I may ask, where is Hei Bai Di? Senior Li, what are his insights on this matter?”

Yun Xi’s father, Yun Chen, raised his voice to inquire.

He was once a genius of the Divine Realm, lying dormant for years, his cultivation level soaring to reach the King Realm.

“Senior Li… is facing an even more terrifying adversary.”

Fire Spirit did not conceal anything from Yun Chen and the others, saying, “Hei Bai Di cannot return for the time being either.”

Hearing this, Yun Chen, Elder Grandson Changqing, and the others were all slightly taken aback.

“Understood… It seems the final battle against the darkness will arrive sooner than we anticipated. If that’s the case, let’s give it our all!”

Elder Grandson Changqing spoke resolutely!

During his time in the Primordial Ancestral World, he had lain concealed within the Sacrificial Temple for years, exterminating countless traitors from the temple. Fearlessness was never a question for him!

“Start with the Grey Emperor, that bastard pup!”

Ji Wudan, Changsun Bumie, Wu Jianghe, and others shouted loudly.

At once, the assembled millions marched toward the Continent of Grey Mists!

…

At this moment.

Just outside the Continent of Grey Mists.

“The darkness has arrived. Grey Emperor, come forth to greet us!”

Two black Great Path Bridges extended grandly into existence.

On the Great Path Bridges stood none other than Mo Zhi and Mo Sha, arriving from the Land of Darkness.

Suddenly, the swirling grey mist parted, and from the Misty Great Path, several Grey Mist Lords emerged to personally receive them.

“Honored guests of the Dark Firmament, your presence overjoys the Grey Mist Imperial Court. Please, enter!”

From the depths of the Grey Mist Imperial Court, the voice of the Grey Emperor resounded.

Mo Zhi and Mo Sha traveled inward along the Misty Great Path.

“These freakish creatures… they indeed pose some trouble and aren’t simple,”

Mo Sha remarked as he swept his gaze across the endless array of bizarre beings hidden within the churning grey mist.

The Ash Mist Creatures… bore the properties of black fog, yet were infused with the essence of white mist.

“Grey mist… a child of black darkness and white mist, but it is inferior to neither parent!”

Mo Zhi smirked faintly.

They soon reached a desolate area at the core of the Grey Mist Imperial Court.

Within this barren expanse, atop the mouth of an ancient well, sat the Grey Emperor, clad in grey robes, meditating with his eyes closed. From the well’s mouth, faint black Source Qi surged toward him.

“If you are to walk the Dark Dao Scripture, you must use pure black fog origin,”

Mo Sha stated coldly. With a wave of his hand, clusters of eerie black fog origin materialized before the Grey Emperor.

The Grey Emperor calmly opened his eyes and accepted the resources, saying,

“Thank you. These will serve well when I attempt to break through to the Heavenly Emperor Realm.”

Mo Zhi spoke indifferently,

“We were commanded to deliver a message and two tasks.”

“First, I intend to go to the Ten Thousand Dao Gate. Second, my junior, Mo Sha, will stay on the Continent of Grey Mists to prepare for battle and purge the lifeforms of this realm.”

The Grey Emperor responded,

“The Ten Thousand Dao Gate? I can establish contact with them, but they may not welcome the darkness.”

Mo Zhi smiled and said,

“The wise adapt to the times. I believe you are not alone in your understanding.”

The Grey Emperor contemplated briefly before saying,

“Very well.”

“Follow me.”

Before long, the Grey Emperor led Mo Zhi to a mist-shrouded mountain peak.

“The entities within the Ten Thousand Dao Gate were not always aloof in ages past. They once shared their teachings with the world…”

“On the Nine Continents, they left behind nine Dao Platforms. Should an era produce a worthy seeker, that individual could ascend the platforms to gain access.”

Atop the mountain peak rested a greyish Dao Platform, its surface engraved with dense, arcane texts.

These mysterious inscriptions contained profound Daoist knowledge, imperceptible to ordinary beings. Only those of exceptional wisdom could comprehend them.

Only those who could decipher these texts were eligible to enter the Ten Thousand Dao Gate.

This was the threshold.

Mo Zhi smiled faintly. He stepped forward and began to meditate, saying,

“Interesting… The Ten Thousand Dao Gate certainly lives up to its reputation.”

…

Meanwhile, at that same time,

In one of the Nine Continents, the Taixuan Continent.

This continent bordered Grey Mist Continent.

Atop a high mountain in Taixuan, a group of individuals appeared.

Leading them was a girl in a white dress. Her eyes sparkled with clarity, her demeanor otherworldly. As her sleeves shifted, butterflies occasionally fluttered forth.

Four others accompanied her.

A woman carrying a long zither on her back, cloaked in a pale yellow dress, appeared graceful and poised, her beauty peerless.

A young man using a turtle as a chessboard stood silently, his expression pensive, with a trace of melancholy in his eyes.

A small girl, appearing no older than eight or nine, carried a box of books on her tiny back—a striking contrast to her petite frame.

Lastly, a woman dressed in white, her icy aura exuding a cold, distant elegance. Her tranquil gaze seemed as though it had endured rivers of blood, yet was cleansed by the purest snow.

These five figures… were none other than Yun Xi, Nan Feng, Jiang Li, Xinning, and Jiang Xue!

—After entering the Forbidden World, unlike others who were directly drawn to areas housing Lamps of Origin, they had recently regrouped amidst the upheaval in Grey Mist Continent.

“Grey Mist Continent houses one lamp, while the other three are located within that Dark World.”

Yun Xi spoke. That so-called “Dark World” was formed by the End of Myriad Paths, now advancing relentlessly across the epochs!

“We must wait until the Dark World fully descends and the World Gate opens. Then, we sneak in…”

She had gathered Nan Feng and the others for that Dark World.

“When the Dark World descends, full-scale darkness will assault this realm… Time is no longer on our side.”

She declared firmly.

“Sister Yun Xi, what should we do?”

Xinning asked.

Yun Xi answered,

“You must go to the Ten Thousand Dao Gate first.”

“When true darkness arrives, the entities within the gate may defect. If you can forge the Myriad Dao within its sanctum within the next several millennia, they won’t dare to take reckless action.”

“This way, we will eliminate any hesitation. When the Desolate Heaven Alliance’s armies arrive and Snow Maiden unleashes her power against Grey Mist Continent, I will accompany Sister Nan Feng and Jiang Li into the Dark World!”

Her delicate face harbored unwavering determination.

“Understood!”

Xinning nodded firmly. Carrying her box of books, she walked toward a nearby Dao Platform.

The platform bore dense inscriptions, decipherable only by beings of immense wisdom.

“So this is a Dao Challenge? Not too difficult… Is there really great knowledge within that gate?”

She scanned the platform curiously before quickly making her move!

…

At the same time, in a highly secretive location.

A colossal stone door loomed in the void, veiled in unknowable mystery.

“I can sense a ripple beyond the dam… Someone has emerged… Someone must have emerged…”

An aged, trembling voice resounded, laden with fear!

“The master of the Dark Firmament… It must be him!”

“A great catastrophe draws near… In this lifetime, who can turn the tide?”

“Cling not to false hope. Even if that one has not truly perished and retains a presence in this world—what good would it serve?”

Beyond this gate lay incomplete “Supreme Beings.”

Yet now, every one of them was gripped by terror and despair.

“Perhaps we should embrace the darkness, become Dark Creatures…”

Someone whispered darkly.

“Foolishness! Have you forgotten why Dark Creatures exist? They are reincarnations of the deceased among the Immortal, Saint, Divine, and Chaos Paths. Their revival is owed to the Forbidden Civilization still persisting!”

“The dam permits them servitude to enforce the Dark Ordinance. But if the Forbidden Civilization extinguishes, if the final spark fades—will Dark Creatures remain? The entire Dark Firmament will vanish, dissolving into silence and cold!”

“Precisely… The ordinance is merciless; the cosmos treats all as mere straw dogs. Dark Creatures are no exception and will meet their end. The Dark Firmament survives solely because the fire of the Forbidden World still burns…”

The group of “Supreme Beings” murmured among themselves, revealing hidden truths!

—Even the Dark Firmament, in the face of the cosmos, would dissolve into void and lifelessness.

Though Dark Lifeforms had lost the warmth and vitality of existence, they were still alive—still barred from eternal acceptance by the cosmos.

Merely due to the persisting Forbidden World could the deceased reincarnate as Dark Lifeforms to carry out the so-called Dark Ordinance.

When the Forbidden World perished, Dark Lifeforms would follow into true extinction.

“If that one still carries a fragment of themselves in this realm… I hope they can survive long enough.”

An aged voice muttered,

“As long as they live, we may transform into Dark Lifeforms to confront them and extinguish the civilization’s fire that they created. If they perish… we won’t even have the chance to exist as Dark Lifeforms!”

“What path lay before us now… Embrace the darkness? Transform into Dark Lifeforms? That road, too, leads to demise.”

“Oppose the darkness? We may die immediately…”

The Ten Thousand Dao Gate fell into a prolonged silence.

“Someone has passed the trial. They’re entering the Ten Thousand Dao Gate…”

Suddenly, someone spoke.

“Wait… This individual’s Dao… It resembles that one’s. Are they his successor?”

“Could this be another End of Myriad Paths? We must be cautious!”

“If they are related to him, we must not let them in recklessly… Or else we may become the target of darkness!”

The Ten Thousand Dao Gate’s inhabitants argued endlessly!

Much time passed.

“Someone else passed the Dao challenge. This time… is it a Dark Creature?!”

Again, someone exclaimed!

“So that one… and the darkness, both approach simultaneously?”

“What… What choice do we make?”

“Are we being forced to take sides?”

The gate’s myriad occupants fell into a moment of crisis!

“Let them all in!”

At that moment, a powerful, reverberating voice declared,

“If no choice can be made, we’ll observe first. The one sent by him… and the one sent by darkness—let’s see who prevails!”

Hearing this, the Ten Thousand Dao Gate grew silent, reaching a consensus!

…

Atop a towering summit.

Illusory light suddenly shimmered into existence. Before the Dao Platform, a path of brilliant steps appeared, leading up to what seemed to be a massive stone gate!

“Sister Yun Xi, Sister Nan Feng, Brother Jiang Li, Sister Jiang Xue, I’m going ahead!”

Xinning spoke without looking back. Carrying her box of books, she ascended onto the ethereal path.

“Xinning… Be careful!”

Nan Feng called out, her eyes laced with reluctance.

The battles to come promised danger; the path forward was perilous, its outcomes uncertain.

“Don’t worry, I still want to return and meet Big Brother again!”

Xinning’s childish voice echoed in the air one last time as her figure disappeared.

…

At the same moment.

Grey Mist Continent, atop another grand peak.

Mo Zhi wiped the sweat from his brow as an ethereal path appeared before him, brimming with joy and pride!

“Excellent, the Dao challenge was already arduous. The knowledge within this gate… will surely be extraordinary!”

Guarding high expectations, he stepped forward!

…

Good night.
