The reason he did this wasn't because he was afraid of death and abandoned his comrades, but because the terrifying existence behind the stone door was too powerful. Fleeing whenever possible seemed undoubtedly the best course of action.

As long as one person could escape, they would be able to send a message to the ruins and the headquarters.

The most terrifying outcome would be if no one could escape, and everyone was killed without even a chance to send a message.

Fang Ying and Xu Qianwu did not hesitate and both used Escape Art to flee at the same time.

But it seemed that the remaining Mutated Beings in the Human World had an unspoken agreement; the moment Xu Qianwu and Fang Ying turned to use their Escape Art to flee, they simultaneously moved forward, charging toward the stone door.

They were preparing to use their own deaths to create an opportunity for Xu Qianwu and Fang Ying to escape, or more precisely, an opportunity to send a message back.

"Hehe!"

A sinister sneer suddenly came from behind the stone door, reaching deep into everyone's souls.

Both Fang Ying and Xu Qianwu's souls trembled violently when they heard that sneer.

The strong presence behind the stone door, with just a sneer, had shaken their souls.

This indicated that the gap in strength between them and their enemy was far too great; facing such a formidable enemy, the group had no ability to resist.

Fang Ying and Xu Qianwu made a decision without hesitation and with exceptional coordination, suddenly splitting up; one went left, the other right.

Long-term cooperation allowed them to perform a perfect coordination without any need for verbal communication, splitting up to escape.

If they were facing an ordinary strong enemy, this method might have been effective. However, now, the two of them were facing a True God strong enemy.

"Hehe!"

Another sneer, and a dark grey cloud suddenly floated out from the darkness behind the stone door, passing directly over the heads of the Mutated Beings from the Yin God Realm who were charging toward the stone door.

Soundlessly!

Differently from Escape Art, this grey shadow seemed to turn into a cloud, silently drifting past above their heads under the guise of an invisible wind.

The Mutated Beings from the Yin God Realm on the ground had no sense of it whatsoever.

Art of Riding Clouds and Mist!

Bang! Bang!

Xu Qianwu and Fang Ying seemed to have hit a wall, flying backward and crashing heavily onto the ground.

Now in the realm of Divine Spirits, both Xu Qianwu and Fang Ying felt intense pain throughout their bodies, involuntarily furrowing their brows as if all their bones were shattered.

"Thinking of escaping in front of this old ancestor?"

The grey shadow gradually revealed itself; it was a man whose body oozed disgusting pus, resembling a poisoned person with his skin rotting, akin to a skinned toad. His pores and the sores constantly exuded white, foul-smelling pus.

Yet, his body was robust, with an aura of sacred authority continuously emanating from him, exuding an irresistible majesty.

"Who... who are you?" Xu Qianwu asked, trying to stay calm and probe the identity of the grey shadow.

"Fifty thousand years, Bai Jing locked up this old ancestor for fifty thousand years."

The grey shadow seemed utterly disdainful of Xu Qianwu's question, hands held behind his back, he looked up at the sky with a sigh, his voice filled with deep hatred.

Then, lowering his head, his gaze became sharp, his eyes piercing like the Sword of Curse aimed fiercely at Xu Qianwu, Fang Ying, and the other Mutated Beings in the Human World.

And as he looked on, a terrible oppressive force seemed to burst forth from his eyes, overwhelming even Divine Spirits like Xu Qianwu and Fang Ying, leaving them gasping for air.

Thud! Bang!

Several Variants in the Mortal Realm, unable to withstand the oppressive force emanating from the grey shadow's eyes, fainted outright.

"Where is Bai Jing?" the grey shadow's gaze swept over Xu Qianwu and Fang Ying, the terrifying oppressive force surging from all around.

Bai Jing? Is that the name of Lord of Bai's Mansion? Does this person want to find him?

Both Xu Qianwu and Fang Ying were momentarily stunned.

But how could they possibly know where the Lord of Bai's Mansion was?

"It seems you know nothing, which means you are of no use. Change!"

The grey shadow's gaze swept over Xu Qianwu and Fang Ying, a hint of disdain flashing at the corner of his mouth.

Following this, as if it were nothing, he stretched out his hand and pointed at Xu Qianwu and the others.

A beam of black light emerged from the fingertips of the grey shadow.

Woo woo!

At the same time, a gigantic black ghost face suddenly appeared in the sky, its bulging white eyes wide open as if an Evil God were overlooking the Earth.

'How awful!'

Xu Qianwu and Fang Ying, even the other Mutated Beings in the Human World, realized something was amiss at the first moment.

The greyish-black figure used the Curse Transformation Technique of the Curse Gate, which was undoubtedly a thousand times, even ten thousand times stronger than that of any Curse Gate Mutated Beings they had battled before.

Without a second thought, everyone unfolded their movements, urgently dodging to the side, trying to avoid the Curse Transformation Technique cast by the greyish-black figure.

Especially Fang Ying and Xu Qianwu, the two strongest among them, they both used the Earth Escape Technique at the first moment, trying to dodge through it.

Whizz whizz whizz!

The bodies of the two of them each transformed into a streak of yellow light, dodging to the left and right.

However, the speed of the black light was faster than the yellow light; just as their bodies had transformed into yellow light, the black light falling from the sky covered them, enveloping their bodies.

Plop!

The Earth Escape Technique suddenly failed, and the two involuntarily fell to the ground.

My... my hand, my body, how has it changed!

'Hehe!'

The greyish-black figure suddenly sneered lightly, hands clasped behind his back, seemingly nonchalant, not sparing a single glance at the various birds, rabbits, cats, and dogs running around on the ground before turning and walking away with hands still behind his back.

※※※

'How awful! What's happening?'

In the Cuiyun Mountain Region, outside the Land God Mansion of Ge Earth God, Qi Xie, resting on a dirt mound with his bamboo staff, suddenly sensed something and looked up in alarm.

In the sky, when no one knew how or when, a greyish-black ghost face appeared, its eyes bulged outward, pupils turned white, its malicious gaze fixedly staring at the Earth as if an Evil God were watching over mortals.

'Such a powerful Curse Power, has it actually become a celestial sign! Who is it? Who is inside Ge Earth God's mansion?'

'How awful! Little Fang, Little Xu, they've encountered a big shot from the Curse Gate!'

Qi Xie's complexion drastically changed. Suddenly standing up, he slammed his bamboo staff on the ground, and suddenly a five-color escape light emerged beneath his feet.

Whizz whizz whizz!

The next moment, his figure vanished, instantly becoming a five-color escape light and merged into a Five-in-One Escape toward Ge Earth God's mansion.

Little Fang and Little Xu had actually encountered a formidable enemy from the Curse Gate. This enemy's Curse Transformation Technique had even manifested as a celestial sign, possessing terrifying authority. Could it be a True God? Could it be the Curse Ancestor?

Thinking of the Curse Ancestor, Qi Xie's transformed five-color escape light sped up even more.

※※※

The Curse Ancestor has appeared!

At the Great Tang Ruins, inside a black and white hall, a revered figure sitting cross-legged as the space around him continuously collapsed and was recreated.

Wrapped in the Power of Destruction and the Power of Creation, he suddenly made a discovery, abruptly opened his eyes, and looked toward the distant southern sky, just in time to see that terrifying ghost face high above, seemingly overlooking all living beings.

'How awful! At the last moment, how could the Curse Ancestor enter the Human World now? He... hasn't he been sealed by Lord of Bai's Mansion?'

His face filled with regret and helpless resignation, the revered figure suddenly stood up. It seemed he was struggling, his brow furrowed, and simultaneously from the East and North, two beams of light came hurtling towards him at the speed of light, his expression hardened, as if a vertical eye suddenly opened on his forehead.

Divine light shot out from the vertical eye, as if concealing a world within it, a world where everything continually collapsed but was also rapidly recreated.

The two beams of light flew directly into the vertical eye, one black and one white, instantly intertwining together, followed by them spinning into a half-black, half-white orb.

Black and white merged together, symbolizing the Power of Creation and the Power of Destruction respectively.

As the black and white orb spun within the hidden world of the vertical eye, the revered figure's realm instantly advanced a notch, moving from the early stage to the mid-stage of the True God Realm.

Simultaneously, at the Alliance Headquarters branch at the Reincarnation Peak in the Great Tang Ruins, the Sleazy Old Man and the Elder of the Heart both vanished.

Whizz whizz whizz!

The five-color escape light emerged under the revered figure's feet, swiftly escaping from the black and white colored hall, heading straight toward the direction of the Cuiyun Mountain Region.
