Beyond the stone gate, the Samsara Eye of the Underworld released an infinitely terrifying suction force.
Those strands of reincarnation power seemed to transform into tentacles, wrapping around Jun Xiaoyao and Ling Yuan.
"Tian Mingzi, you're seeking death!"
Ling Yuan's phoenix eyes flashed with cold light, her delicate body trembling as she unleashed her magical power, wanting to destroy Tian Mingzi.
But the Samsara Eye of the Underworld was incredibly terrifying.
Once entangled by it, there was almost no possibility of escape, only being drawn into it to experience layers of reincarnation trials.
This was the trial of the Underworld lineage.
Even someone as powerful as Ling Yuan could not escape.
"Ling Yuan, Jun Xiaoyao, just resign yourselves to perishing within it."
Watching Ling Yuan and Jun Xiaoyao being slowly pulled into the Samsara Eye, Tian Mingzi's eyes revealed a trace of satisfaction.
Tian Mingzi could perfectly use them both as pathfinders, to test the waters.
Afterward, he would enter safely through other methods.
Jun Xiaoyao's body was similarly entangled by the reincarnation power of the Samsara Eye.
His gaze turned toward Tian Mingzi, his eyes also carrying a hint of coldness.
Those who dared to scheme against him usually didn't end well.
Just as Jun Xiaoyao and Ling Yuan were being pulled into the Samsara Eye.
Jun Xiaoyao formed a sword with his fingers, and behind him, an illusory nine-leaved sword grass appeared.
Grass Character Sword Technique!
Whoosh!
An incomparably fast sword light slashed through the void.
In a fraction of a millisecond.
The smug smile on Tian Mingzi's face suddenly froze.
On his neck, a thin line of blood appeared.
Then with a gurgle, his head fell to the ground.
His primordial spirit was shattered by the sword energy at the same moment.
Seeing this, Ling Yuan's eyes flashed with imperceptible surprise.
Even she found it difficult to deploy any techniques.
Yet Jun Xiaoyao was able to strike, and even instantly kill Tian Mingzi.
What Ling Yuan didn't know was.
Jun Xiaoyao not only had the strength to kill Tian Mingzi instantly.
He could even escape this Samsara Eye.
The reason was simple: Jun Xiaoyao not only cultivated the Reincarnation Immortal Qi, but also possessed reincarnation divine abilities in the Supreme Drum.
So it was impossible for the Samsara Eye to restrain him.
But Jun Xiaoyao chose not to escape.
The system hadn't prompted him to check in yet.
He came to the Black Abyss to uncover some truths.
So naturally, he couldn't leave just like that.
Even without Tian Mingzi's intervention, Jun Xiaoyao would have found a way to enter the Samsara Eye.
Ling Yuan misunderstood, thinking Jun Xiaoyao, like her, couldn't escape the constraints of the Samsara Eye.
Now, both Ling Yuan and Jun Xiaoyao were completely pulled into the Samsara Eye.
That stone gate also closed and sealed once more.
Just as Ling Yuan and Jun Xiaoyao disappeared into the Samsara Eye.
In a certain ancient building filled with immortal light, like a heavenly palace, faint voices could be heard.
"Ling Yuan's aura has disappeared from the Ultimate Ancient Path. It seems she has indeed discovered some clues about the Underworld."
"We needn't rush. Ling Yuan has her own ideas. Our Nuwa Immortal Lineage depends on her in this generation."
"The only pity is that her shadow was too uncooperative, causing our collaboration with the Fuxi Immortal Lineage to temporarily fail."
"No matter, there's no hurry. Heroes emerge in chaotic times. When the foreign realm's disturbance fully erupts, the immortal realm will naturally need a hero."
"And our Immortal Court will be that hero..."
...
Meanwhile, at the Jun family.
The Eighteenth Ancestor and others also sensed that Jun Xiaoyao's aura had disappeared.
As if he had entered some unknown place.
"We needn't worry. Xiaoyao is even more outstanding than his father. We old folks have grown numb hearing the news from the Ancient Path," the Sixteenth Ancestor chuckled.
The Jun family naturally knew all about the various brilliant achievements Jun Xiaoyao had created on the Emperor's Path and the Ultimate Ancient Path.
They could find absolutely no fault with him.
Jun Xiaoyao's excellent performance also meant they had no major concerns.
"Indeed, but most importantly, Xiaoyao's character isn't as selflessly public-minded as his father's. That's a good thing. Sometimes being a hero comes at a price," the Eighteenth Ancestor sighed.
"I hear the movements from the foreign realm are growing increasingly significant," the Sixteenth Ancestor said, his tone slightly sinking.
"That's right, so this final test of the Ultimate Ancient Path may be more difficult than before. Of course, with Xiaoyao's abilities, there shouldn't be any major problems."
"Hehe, for our Jun family, isn't this also a great opportunity? Heroes emerge in chaotic times," the Sixteenth Ancestor smiled.
Clearly, the Supreme Immortal Court, the Jun family, and even other ancient powers all harbored thoughts of becoming heroes.
This kind of hero wasn't merely the fearlessly sacrificial type.
But a hero who would dominate the immortal realm!
In the Black Abyss, within the Samsara Eye.
Jun Xiaoyao and Ling Yuan were deeply trapped within.
Around them, countless bizarre and colorful scenes manifested.
It was as if innumerable worlds were entangling, layering, and merging around them.
A terrifyingly boundless force seemed to be tearing at their souls.
Even someone as powerful as Ling Yuan felt her primordial spirit violently shaking, experiencing extreme pain, like the agony of being split apart.
"Jun Xiaoyao, this princess thinks we should temporarily join forces," Ling Yuan said, guarding her spirit.
"Join forces? I never thought the high and mighty Imperial Princess would consider cooperating with others," Jun Xiaoyao said with a fake smile.
Classic passive-aggressive behavior.
Ling Yuan's expression also became slightly unnatural, but she still said solemnly: "That Tian Mingzi certainly wasn't qualified, but I must admit, you are."
"Admit? Does this Divine Son need your acknowledgment? Believe it or not, without you, this Divine Son could safely leave on his own," Jun Xiaoyao said coldly.
From birth until now, no one had dared to presume their status before him.
Not even Ling Yuan.
Feeling the tearing pain in her primordial spirit, Ling Yuan bit her silver teeth and said: "If this princess dies, Tiannu Yuan will also die immediately. Would that be acceptable?"
"Are you threatening me?" Jun Xiaoyao's expression remained cold.
"Not threatening, but cooperating. At least let's get through this period first," Ling Yuan's tone involuntarily softened, becoming somewhat gentler.
There was no choice; circumstances dictated necessity.
The power within this Samsara Eye was too strong; she definitely couldn't endure it alone.
"Remember, don't put on airs in front of me," Jun Xiaoyao said coldly.
He still agreed.
Ling Yuan nodded and released her primordial spirit power.
Her primordial spirit power radiated golden light, like a goddess's elemental spirit.
"It seems she also has a special primordial spirit," Jun Xiaoyao thought.
He also released his primordial spirit power.
The vast primordial spirit power released by Jun Xiaoyao even shocked Ling Yuan.
This vast soul power was almost comparable to that of a Supreme Being.
The two's primordial spirit powers merged and intertwined, forming a barrier to resist the tearing force of the Samsara Eye.
Jun Xiaoyao felt nothing, but Ling Yuan felt very uncomfortable.
Although it was only a fusion of primordial spirits, it made Ling Yuan feel uneasy, with a strange sensation.
"This is only temporary, Jun Xiaoyao. Once we escape from the Samsara Eye, our contest will officially begin," Ling Yuan guarded her spirit and secretly thought.
Ahead, brilliant light suddenly appeared. Jun Xiaoyao and Ling Yuan finally reached the end of the Samsara Eye passage.
In the radiance of the brilliant light, they completely lost consciousness, falling into some unknown place.
