Subsequently, he began to contemplate, but soon, he laughed again, staring at Xiao Mu, "Although sparing your life has no effect on me, why should I spare your life?"

As he spoke, the Hongmeng Daoist stretched out a finger towards Xiao Mu.

Just like when dealing with the Wild Man earlier, he extended the index finger of his right hand as well.

As soon as this finger extended, a new world power appeared, beginning to change the world.

Xiao Mu watched as the finger descended, and suddenly a bizarre thought arose within him.

For some reason, he suddenly looked forward to the finger landing on him.

Unconsciously, he smiled.

"Yes, that's more like it, even in death, one should die smiling!"

The Hongmeng Daoist's face broke into a peculiar smile.

He used the power of rules and harnessed the new world power to change Xiao Mu's mind, making Xiao Mu not fear death but rather feel joy.

He wanted Xiao Mu to joyfully embrace his apocalyptic finger.

Xiao Mu's smile grew wider.

He seemed eager for the Hongmeng Daoist's finger to fall quickly, to turn to dust like the Wild Man.

However, deep within his soul, he realized it was wrong; once the Hongmeng Daoist's finger landed, it would mean his complete annihilation.

His soul trembled deeply, yet he was helpless.

Xiao Mu's feelings were extremely strange.

The Hongmeng Daoist seemed to fully enjoy this outcome, keeping a smile on his face as he locked his finger on Xiao Mu, letting it slowly descend.

Xiao Mu's smile widened, full of anticipation for the apocalyptic finger.

At this moment, the Human Emperor in the throne room of the Floating Sky Mountain suddenly opened his eyes.

As soon as the Human Emperor's eyes opened, a golden rosy glow appeared behind him, carrying a staggering sense of fragmentation.

Within this fragmented aura, the Human Emperor clearly sensed what was happening in the Everlasting Domain, and thus his gaze turned in that direction.

The governing light of the world shot from the Human Emperor's eyes.

The power of the entire world changed, enabling the Human Emperor's gaze to cross space directly to the Hongmeng Daoist.

The Hongmeng Daoist, who was planning to destroy Xiao Mu, immediately sensed the unparalleled power radiating from the Human Emperor's gaze, a governing light that seemed capable of altering everything.

"Who...are you?"

The Hongmeng Daoist looked in the direction of the Human Emperor, staring towards the Floating Sky Mountain's throne room in astonishment.

His eyes emitted purple light.

The powerful Hongmeng Purple Qi also altered world power, ignoring distance and allowing him to see the Human Emperor clearly.

However, the moment he saw the Human Emperor, the Hongmeng Daoist was shocked to find he did not recognize the Human Emperor, unaware of such a powerful and terrifying being in the Eastern Territory.

The Human Emperor ignored the Hongmeng Daoist.

This Hongmeng Daoist was not the real one, but merely an incarnation formed from a wisp of Hongmeng Purple Qi.

Such an incarnation was not worthy of much interaction.

Thus, without changing his expression, the Human Emperor unleashed governing light against the Hongmeng Daoist's Hongmeng Purple Qi, pushing it back in the opposite direction.

The world began to shatter, and world power started to change. The world power on the Hongmeng Daoist's side ultimately could not withstand the world power from the Human Emperor.

Under the sweep of the governing light, the Hongmeng Purple Qi from the Hongmeng Daoist's eyes was pushed back by the Human Emperor's governing light.

The speed was both slow and fast, for beings at the level of the Human Emperor and Hongmeng, time and velocity were meaningless.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

The world began to shatter as the world power laid down by the Hongmeng Daoist's incarnation collapsed under the Human Emperor's governing light.

This power disintegrated and rushed towards the Hongmeng Daoist.

"Who exactly are you?" The Hongmeng Daoist watched the direction of the Floating Sky Mountain in shock, but could no longer see the Human Emperor.

His power was crumbling, and under the Human Emperor's actions, the governing light filled with world power gradually reached his vicinity.

The Human Emperor did not answer the Hongmeng Daoist's question, showing no intention to respond.

The unmatched governing light, advancing from his eyes, carried the new world power back, spreading to the Hongmeng Daoist's incarnation.

Crack!

The Hongmeng Daoist's incarnation began to shatter bit by bit.

"Who...are you?" The Hongmeng Daoist, still unwilling, asked about the Human Emperor's identity, but asked nothing more as his body completely shattered.

New world power surged from the Human Emperor's governing light, instantly cleansing this land.

The altered land was transformed again, restored to its original state.

The world power that the Hongmeng Daoist used to change this world vanished, and the land returned to normal.

And when the governing light from the Human Emperor's eyes restored the land, it suddenly disappeared as if it had never appeared.

A brand-new world power emerged, hiding the traces of the Human Emperor's intervention.

Xiao Mu suddenly regained his mobility and power.

Yet, he was baffled, unclear about what had just happened. He only remembered the Hongmeng Daoist's appearance, the Wild Man's escape, and subsequent ash-like obliteration under the Hongmeng Daoist's finger.

Afterward, the Hongmeng Daoist intended to kill him.

The Hongmeng Daoist twisted world power, making him cheerfully smile at the prospect of death.

Then, as the Hongmeng Daoist descended upon him, he had no power to resist.

But now, the Hongmeng Daoist was gone, and he had not died.

He looked down to the ground and saw the Seal of the Heavenly Emperor, the Great Decree.

With a thought, the Seal of the Heavenly Emperor and the Great Decree flew into his body.

Feeling the clear connection with the Seal of the Heavenly Emperor and the Great Decree, Xiao Mu breathed a sigh of relief.

"What just happened? Why did the Hongmeng Daoist disappear? Wasn't he going to kill me? Why didn't he kill me in the end?"

"Could it be that the Hongmeng Daoist changed his mind before killing me?"

"No way, why would the Hongmeng Daoist change his mind? If not, why am I not dead?"

Xiao Mu was deeply puzzled, unable to make sense of it.

In the end, what happened to the Hongmeng Daoist? Why didn't the originally determined-to-kill Hongmeng Daoist end up killing him?

Xiao Mu was utterly perplexed.

Soon after, he mourned the Wild Man's death.

The Wild Man, a Heavenly God level existence, seemed to be the Chaos Heavenly Monarch according to the Hongmeng Daoist's words?

The true Chaos Heavenly Monarch had long been dead, and the Wild Man was just a wisp of indomitable will left by the Chaos Heavenly Monarch.

But now, even this wisp of indomitable will was extinguished by the Hongmeng Daoist.

Xiao Mu felt immense sorrow, as the Wild Man had greatly helped him and even saved his life; of course, he did not want the Wild Man to die.

Yet the Hongmeng Daoist, this terrifying Ancient Heavenly God, appeared and altered world power, making him impossible to contend with.

Xiao Mu felt despair; at the time, even if he wanted to help the Wild Man, he was utterly powerless. Not to mention that at the time, facing the Hongmeng Daoist's incarnation, he couldn't do anything.

Fortunately, Elder Hei managed to escape in the end.

Though only a wisp of will escaped, could it resurrect again?

Xiao Mu couldn't help but wonder.

This thought improved his mood significantly. Observing his surroundings, he couldn't resist moving forward.

The coffin was empty; the corpse bones of the Ancient Divine Being Zhu Qianhao were gone.

However, spiritual energy still emanated from beneath the coffin.
