Before long, Chen Dengming was close to the Eighteen Layers of Hell.

It is said to be the Eighteen Layers of Hell, but in reality it is just a large mustard Mustard Seed Realm composed of eighteen Cave Heaven.

From a distance, it looks like a string of bubbles linked together and then attached to the giant Underworld Continent.

However, the 'curtain' between these bubbles seemed to have become extremely thin due to the erosion of layers of Death Qi, just like a great curtain connecting Nanxun with the Human World, making it easy for cultivators to enter and exit.

Chen Dengming, carrying the Calamity Tribulation Stele that was shrouded in fierce calamity energy, flew Eighteen Layers of Hell.

The Eye of the Heavens can observe the blurry scene even through a 'veil'.

Within the Eighteen Layers of Hell, a dense Death Qi surged forth, and billowing calamity churned and churned rapidly like a locomotive spewing thick smoke.

The Water of the Underworld River surged powerfully within it, their waves surging and pushing forward, creating utter chaos.

This place is truly a hellish scene, devoid of any living beings, yet teeming with ghosts and monsters.

Numerous ghosts writhed in agony in the River Styx, struggling amidst the calamity, wailing and howling, their resentment surging forth.

"What a hell! This place is truly a breeding ground for resentment and the creation of Karma."

Chen Dengming roughly understood the situation and took a deep breath.

These numerous ghosts, already tragically drowning in the River Styx, have now fallen into this hell imbued with calamity energy. They have fallen into a sea of suffering, their resentment growing deep within them. They will gradually transform into evil spirits, and their resentment may even become obsessions, turning into Karma.

Fortunately, he discovered it in time.

Now, all that is needed is to transfer the Eighteen Layers of Hell and repair the Ghost Realm Great Curtain, and the disaster of the River Styx flowing away and the Eighteen Layers of Hell collapsing will naturally not occur.

The calamity energy will not surge, and the fallen ghosts will no longer suffer, giving rise to resentment and forming evil spirits, thus increasing Karma.

However, while the matter of relocating the Mustard Seed Realm is easy to talk about, it is not necessarily easy to do.

Fortunately, he is now a Dao Lord and can connect to his own Dao Domain at any time using his Dao power.

If the attraction of the Heavenly Immortal Realm to the Mustard Seed Realm is utilized, it is still possible to move the vast Mustard Seed Realm away.

After flying around the Eighteen Layers of Hell for more than ten days, Chen Dengming summoned Senluo through the Human Heart Hall before making his move.

He unleashed his Ancient Human Immortal Physique, transforming into a nearly three-hundred-foot- Silver Light giant, using human power to manipulate the energy field of heaven and earth, condensing a ten-thousand-foot-tall Dharma form.

The enormous Buddha image is almost as if it is standing on the earth of the underworld, with its back bent and stretched to the bottom of the Human World, a rather awkward and embarrassed image caught in the middle.

However, this does not affect the Dharma Image's ability to exert its power.

As Chen Dengming stretched out his hands, the Dharma Image also stretched out its incredibly long and thick arms, easily embracing the Eighteen Layers of Hell, as if it were holding a rolling pin.

"Rise!!"

Chen Dengming suddenly exerted his strength, his entire body surging with Dao power, unleashing a force powerful enough to shake a Cultivation Star.

This is a power that even ordinary Dao Integration Dao Master might not possess.

With a deafening roar, the entire Eighteen Layers of Hell trembled violently, even causing the ghost realm to shake.

Inside the Eighteen Layers of Hell, the violent tremors caused endless shockwaves mixed with terrifying torrents, spreading outwards in all directions, creating a scene resembling the end of the world.

Countless ghosts struggled and writhed within, and the aura of calamity began to increase rapidly.

With one burst of energy, Chen Dengming unleashed an astonishing power from his ten-thousand-foot-tall Dharma form, forcefully pulling the entire Mustard Seed Realm of the Eighteen Layers of Hell away from the Ghost Realm.

A powerful force of attraction emanated from the ghost realm.

"Get out here!"

Chen Dengming's eyes shone brightly, and with a long roar, his three-hundred-foot-tall Ancient Human Immortal Physique exuded a magnificent aura, its Dao power flowing and connecting to the Dao Domain.

Click!

A massive crack suddenly appeared in the void behind him.

The moment this Heavenly Immortal Realm Dao Domain appeared, it also emitted a strong attraction, helping Chen Dengming to quickly draw in and pull away the Eighteen Layers of Hell.

This scene is reminiscent of Chen Dengming prying away a magnet that has been attracted to a giant magnet.

When he felt he was struggling, he suddenly summoned another large magnet to assist him, creating an attraction force that forcibly pulled the magnet away.

Just as the Eighteen Layers of Hell was released from the ghost realm, a large amount of the Water of the Underworld River suddenly flowed out from the gap in the ghost realm, as if flowing into a bottomless abyss, pouring into the gap between the two worlds. However, due to the attraction of the ghost realm and the pressure of the Human World above, it flowed back, scattering like a torrential rain.

"Ao!"

At that moment, a deep roar came from the Ghost Realm.

The enormous figure of Senluo appeared, easily blocking the gap in the ghost realm and preventing the possibility of calamity energy from being generated.

"Good job, old buddy. I'm sorry to trouble you for a while, but I'll come back to fill the gap in a bit."

Chen Dengming breathed a sigh of relief, and then, relying on his Dharma Image, dragged the massive Eighteen Layers of Hell Mustard Seed Realm back to the Dao Domain.

This scene was incredibly powerful.

From a distance, it looks as if a gigantic being travels through the Outer Heaven.

It was as if giants were climbing on the shattered surface of the Cultivation Star.

Because of his enormous size, in just a few breaths, his massive Dharma form had already traveled from the Ghost Realm to the Heavenly Immortal Realm.

Then, as if putting a small shoe on the Heavenly Immortal Realm, the Dharma Image stuffed the Eighteen Layers of Hell, the Mustard Seed Realm, into the barrier of the Heavenly Immortal Realm.

The whole process seemed simple, but in reality it consumed a huge amount of Chen Dengming's Dao power.

If converted into Immortal Spiritual Energy, it would be enough for Nascent Soul Cultivator like He Yingyu to cultivate for hundreds of years in the Heavenly Timing environment.

As the Mustard Seed Realm of the Eighteen Layers of Hell and the Heavenly Immortal Realm came into contact, a deafening rumble resounded from the collision.

Chen Dengming immediately mobilized his Dao Domain, absorbing one end of the Mustard Seed Realm into the barrier, forming a connection.

There are still many issues that need to be addressed.

Such as clearing away the calamities within the Eighteen Layers of Hell and dealing with the resentful ghosts there.

Chen Dengming had already devised a solution: he would send his Incense Clone to guard Hell and convert the many vengeful ghosts into Incense Believer, which would naturally dispel the calamity.

If successful, hell will no longer be hell, but a paradise for ghosts to be reborn in.

Incense Clone can bring many rewards; in the Incense Godhood Path, these rewards are called merit.

However, just as Chen Dengming was working Heavenly Timing...

An extremely fierce attack suddenly struck the massive body of the ten-thousand-foot-tall Dharma Image.

Chen Dengming immediately felt all the condensed aura and Dao power collapse at once.

The magnificent Dharma image, towering ten thousand feet tall, instantly crumbled.

A mad and bewitching Divine Sense will, however, remained undiminished and launched a fierce attack on him.

"Divine Void!?"

Chen Dengming's heart tightened, and his gaze instantly fell upon a figure appearing in the Outer Heaven thousands of meters away.

The figure was surrounded by dazzling divine light, spreading a vast and powerful force of Incense and Faith, and exerting an increasingly strong pressure.

He immediately focused his mind, and the Human Heart Hall appeared, blocking the Divine Sense attack from the Divine Void.

After a few breaths.

Chen Dengming's mind was in turmoil, his spirit severely damaged, his face slightly pale as he fled into the Dao Domain. His eyes were wary and surprised as he watched the Divine Void figure in the distance slowly disappear into the mist. Then he couldn't help but let out a bitter smile.

He was so focused that he overlooked the potential threat of Divine Void.

The Heavenly Human Dharma Appearance' forms are so enormous that they create quite a commotion.

The Outer Heaven may seem vast, but compared to the immeasurable Heavenly Human Dharma Appearance, it is only this small area, so there is a high probability of encountering wandering Divine Void.

Fortunately, Divine Void is quite wary of the Heavenly Immortal Realm, which is the territory of the Heavenly Dao, and now the Eighteen Layers of Hell have basically been connected to the Dao Domain.

Otherwise, if the Dharma Image were destroyed by the Divine Void midway, and the Eighteen Layers of Hell fell from the sky to the Human World, and he was then suppressed by the Divine Void, it would be a tremendous disaster.

"A close call, but no real harm done. Perhaps good Fortune Shines Brightly played a part."

Chen Dengming felt a chill run down his spine upon reflection, but was thankful that he hadn't encountered Divine Void too early.

However, now that the matter has been resolved, everyone is happy.

Next.

He only needs to deal with the calamity and vengeful ghosts in the Eighteen Layers of Hell, and then return to the space between the two realms to eliminate some of the calamity in the Mustard Seed Realm.

In this way, perhaps he could buy the Ancient Realm and himself a few hundred years of peace.

At the same time.

New Realm, Phoenix Cry Dao Domain.

Since the Dao Integration Great Power Feng Lingzi disappeared along with the Blue-eyed Cultivation Star, the rate at which calamity energy has been generated in the Phoenix Cry Dao Domain and even the other two Dao Inner Domain has become even more rapid, as if a world-destroying calamity is about to erupt.

The disappearance of the Blue-eyed Cultivation Star also completely alarmed the Phoenix Cry Dao Venerable, who had been sitting firmly in the Phoenix Cry Dao Domain.

For nearly a thousand years, there has not been a situation where an entire Cultivation Star has been destroyed.

However, several such incidents have occurred in recent years, and now even Feng Lingzi has disappeared, which is enough to illustrate the seriousness of the situation.

However, when Phoenix Cry Dao Venerable personally went to the starry sky where the Blue-eyed Cultivation Star used to be, he could not find any clues about the ten-thousand- Bandit Cultivator who had ravaged multiple Cultivation Star, and he could not even find a trace of Feng Lingzi.

What exactly happened here?

In the tranquil and boundless deep sky, the peerless figure of Phoenix Cry Dao Venerable stood gracefully, his majestic phoenix eyes gazing with doubt at the location where Blue Eyes Star once stood.

There is nothing there now, as if it were swallowed up by an invisible maw in deep space, or perhaps the Blue-eyed Cultivation Star never existed at all.

Phoenix Cry Dao Venerable frowned, keenly sensing the seriousness of the matter, which might be a sign of Eternal Great Tribulation.

A Dao Integration Great Power has disappeared without leaving any trace or clues before his disappearance. This is something that even experts at the Dao Integration Realm would find difficult to accomplish.

Once this news gets out, it will cause panic throughout the New Realm Territories, including other Dao Integration Dao Master, and the situation will gradually get out of control.

"If anything happened here, there's no way there wouldn't be any clues left behind. Especially not the aura of calamity!"

Phoenix Cry Dao Venerable surveyed the surroundings, his eyes filled with even deeper suspicion.

The entire Blue-Eyed Star has vanished; this starry sky should have given rise to a great deal of calamity energy.

But now, there is absolutely no trace of calamity here.

This is already very strange.

Phoenix Cry Dao Venerable suddenly extended his fair and translucent jade finger, and the instant he gently pointed it out, a cluster of scarlet flames quickly appeared at his fingertip.

The flame seemed to release no heat in the starry sky; all its high temperature was completely contained by the power of the Dao and never released.

With a flick of his finger Phoenix Cry Dao Venerable...

The flames flew rapidly to the location where Blue-Eyed Star had been, and then suddenly burst into a raging inferno. In an instant, the flames spread and released astonishingly high temperatures, burning wildly as if they were about to melt through the starry sky.

Instantly, the void seemed to twist and fluctuate, and spacetime itself showed signs of distortion under the relentless burning of this Dao fire.

Phoenix Cry Dao Venerable's eyes shone like rubies as he stared intently at the distorted spacetime scene in the burning starry sky.

Suddenly, her gaze locked onto the scenes unfolding in the distorted spacetime.

In the scene, a terrifying being, as large as a Cultivation Star and shrouded in surging tribulation energy, held aloft a gigantic sphere resembling a black hole, instantly engulfing Blue Eye Star.

The distorted spacetime fluctuated once more, and more scenes emerged as if time had reversed, revealing the scene of the Bandit Cultivator's battle against Feng Lingzi.

"The mad Heavenly Dao Will, the Calamity Qi and Karma, the Dao of Life and Death, and that sphere that seems to be the Heavenly Prison Seal Feng Lingzi— could this Bandit Cultivator be related to the Ancient Realm?"

Upon observing this, Phoenix Cry Dao Venerable's eyes revealed even greater surprise and doubt.

Suddenly, she made a casual gesture.

Boom!--

The flames burning across the vast starry sky quickly recoiled into a single flame, traced a graceful arc, and flew back to land on my fingertips.

All that remained was a space that had been burned, twisted, and even sunken and curled up, so much so that even the light that came through was drawn into it.

However, it is clear that this cramped space is slowly expanding and repairing itself.

At the same time, a wisp of Karma energy, born from outside the recessed space, was about to be absorbed into it.

Phoenix Cry Dao Venerable flicked her finger, and the wisp of Karma that had been born quickly flew back to her fingertip and swirled around.

This trace of Karma, surprisingly intertwined with that of the Bandit Cultivator, was enough to help her find Bandit Cultivator.

Everything in the universe is interconnected by cause and effect.

The Bandit Cultivator devoured the Blue-Eyed Star is because...

She sought revenge, and that was her purpose.

This Karma of cause and effect cannot be severed, nor can it be untangled.

While that Bandit Cultivator could devour the karmic Karma of calamity, he could not sever his own karma, and sooner or later she would come after him.

The universe is boundless; even a Cultivation Star is but a speck of dust in the vast expanse of space.

Therefore, Bandit Cultivator of tens of thousands of feet may seem enormous, but when he hides deep in the universe and does not want anyone to find him, even if Phoenix Cry Dao Venerable wants to find him, it will not be easy, and it will definitely take a lot of time.

At this very moment, deep within an abandoned Cultivation Star in the vast expanse of space.

The monster created by Chen Dengming —a Bandit Cultivator tens of thousands of feet tall—has transformed into a vast and surging Tribulation Qi, spreading across the entire Cultivation Star.

Deep within the dense Tribulation Mist, a palace stands, none other than the Immortal King Hall.

Inside the hall, a mass of blood, brimming with madness and karmic Karma, was churning and gradually taking on a human form.

However, whenever the human form was about to take shape, an angry and unwilling old man's roar would come from within it, and then the Blood Qi and calamity energy would be dispersed at the same time, and then quickly gather back into human form, and so on and so forth.

Deep within the mass of blood and calamity energy, there was a sphere filled with calamity energy, like a prison, imprisoning an old man who looked weary, terrified, and unwilling.

This old man was none other than Feng Lingzi.

With Feng Lingzi's limited knowledge and understanding, although it was difficult to escape from the Heavenly Prison, he dared not even open his Dao Domain rashly, lest the heavy Karma tribulation energy invade his Dao Domain and plunge him into an abyss of no return.

However, he had already vaguely sensed that the mysterious Bandit Cultivator who had sealed him away did not seem to be a normal human being.

The other party did not communicate with him, acted insanely, and did not even have a fixed physical form or Essence, Qi, and Spirit, nor did it seem to have a Dao domain.

Yet this strange thing possesses all sorts of incredible and complex powers, especially the Karma aura that fills its entire body, making it extremely fearsome.

This calamity energy was even relentlessly eroding his Feng Ling Dao Power, as if it wanted to completely devour and assimilate him. It seemed that the opponent's survival instinct was to erode and assimilate everything.

This forced him to question the other party's true state, leading to a terrifying and audacious thought—could this be the Eternal Great Tribulation spoken of by Phoenix Cry Dao Venerable?

This great calamity has already given rise to a simplistic consciousness, a consciousness filled with a corrosive desire?

After this thought arose, Feng Lingzi felt even more desperate and pained.

Now he is imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison, burdened by Karma, and his power is being constantly eroded by his opponent. He is gradually weakening and heading towards destruction.

The opponent was even able to unleash his sealing techniques, making him incredibly powerful.

Now it seems he has no other choice but to hold on and wait for Phoenix Cry Dao Venerable's rescue.

"If I were to activate my Dao Domain to resist at this moment, I would most likely be unable to escape. Instead, it would allow Karma tribulation energy to invade the sealed spirit Dao Domain, causing widespread suffering and further fueling the tribulation energy."

Feng Lingzi, his face grim, huddled in the Heavenly Prison, his body swirling with multicolored Dao power as he struggled to resist the overwhelming calamity energy from all directions.

It can be observed that the Dao power in his body is being gradually eroded and devoured by the calamity energy.

But he wasn't planning on a fight to the death until the very last step.

He didn't believe it. He had disappeared, and Blue-eyed Cultivation Star was in serious trouble. Such a major event wouldn't have alarmed Phoenix Cry Dao Venerable.

As long as Phoenix Cry Dao Venerable takes action, finding him is only a matter of time.

He can withstand this level of erosion from the calamity's energy for several more decades, as long as it doesn't continue to grow stronger.

The thought had just been born in my mind.

Suddenly, Feng Lingzi felt that the calamity energy around his body had become much more ferocious and powerful, inexplicably increasing his Karma, and his face turned bitter.

Among these many Karma, there is one that is extremely familiar: the Karma that imprisoned him in the Heavenly Prison. The cause and effect that corresponds to and is entangled with this Karma seems to be even stronger.

Feng Lingzi cursed inwardly, wondering who was it that was so useless, providing so much Karma for this calamity.

Especially those complex and terrifying supernatural Divine Ability and various Dao forces, like several Dao Integration Great Power like him, were trapped by this calamity energy and had their power eroded. Otherwise, it would be impossible for one person to create such a monster with such complex power and Divine Ability.

Feng Lingzi chuckled self-deprecatingly.

"I thought I was already shameful and useless enough, but I didn't expect there were several people even more useless than me!"
