Blood Brow looked terrified and hurriedly spoke.

"What exactly does that Foundation Establishment junior possess that would warrant your personal intervention, a Nascent Soul expert, to capture him?"

"That's none of your business."

Tai He exuded a chilling killing intent, his overwhelming aura sweeping out like a raging storm.

Seeing that Blood Brow was about to die, she hurriedly shouted.

"I am a Nascent Soul Cultivator from the Divine Blood Sect Blood Cloud Cave. Tens of thousands of years ago, my physical body was destroyed, and my soul was imprisoned in Soul Shackle made of Soul-Nourishing Wood. I was only recently freed from it."

"Don't kill me! I know many secrets from tens of thousands of years ago, and I also know many ancient Technique Method."

Upon hearing this, Tai He abruptly withdrew his killing intent.

His face showed a hint of doubt.

"Are you really a member of the Divine Blood Sect?"

Blood Brow nodded eagerly, "Absolutely true, otherwise how would I know so much about the Nether God Temple?"

Tai He pondered for a moment before speaking.

"Alright, I can spare your life, and I can even provide you with an excellent body for you to possess. But you must release your soul so I can plant a 'Soul-Locking Curse'."

Blood Brow asked, "What kind of physical body?"

"Profound Yin Physique!"

"Alright, I'll let you place the Soul-Locking Curse on yourself."

Blood Brow clenched his fists tightly, his face filled with resentment.

"Good!" Tai He smiled smugly, then turned and walked out of the hall.

With Blood Brow possessing Yan Yiwen and being controlled by the Soul-Locking Curse, the 'Extreme Yin' Blood Brow became irrelevant.

However, what Tai He didn't notice was that in the instant he turned to leave, a sharp glint flashed in Blood Brow's eyes.

That glint of light was so sharp and bright, as if everything was within Blood Brow's calculations.

Amidst the vast ocean.

A reef island stands abruptly.

The sea wind howls, the waves surge, and relentlessly pound the reefs.

The giant wave crashed against the reef, shattering into countless white bubbles that splashed up in all directions.

However, all of this was shrouded in a thick, ghostly fog.

Even though it was daytime, it was still pitch black all around.

Suddenly, a bright blue light shone on the reef island.

Two figures suddenly appeared in the center of the island.

It was Song Wen and the Nether Fox who were teleported here from hundreds of millions of miles away.

The extremely long-distance teleportation made both of them extremely uncomfortable.

The man and the fox felt dizzy and their stomachs churning. They collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.

After catching his breath, Song Wen summoned the Ghost King, keeping a watchful eye on the Nether Fox.

Once they left the Nether God Temple, the Soul Oath lost its binding force.

The Nether Fox, on all fours, propped itself up and looked around, finding no signs of life on the reef island.

It took a deep breath.

It absorbed a massive amount of ghostly mist into its belly.

The Nether Fox felt exceptionally comfortable, and even its internal injuries seemed to have healed somewhat.

This Ghost Mist Domain is the promised land for the Nether Fox.

The Nether Fox glanced at Song Wen, and its voice echoed in Song Wen's mind.

"Human Race, you don't need to be on guard against me all the time. You have saved me twice. I will not be as despicable as you Human Race, and I will not repay kindness with enmity."

Song Wen said, "I hope you will keep your word."

The Nether Fox said, "Human Race, your physical body cannot withstand this Ghost Mist Domain for long. It would be best to leave the Ghost Mist Domain as soon as possible."

A bitter look appeared on Song Wen's face. He knew all too well that he couldn't stay in the Ghost Mist Domain for long.

But he knew nothing about the Ghost Mist Domain, and since the place was dark and he couldn't tell which way to go, he had no idea where to go.

If you choose the wrong direction, you may get lost in the endless ghostly mist, never able to escape the Ghost Mist Domain, and ultimately become just one of the thousands of Wraith within Ghost Mist Domain.

The Nether Fox raised its front paw and pointed to a spot to Song Wen's right.

"I can sense that the Sea of Disorder is in this direction."

Song Wen looked at Nether Fox with a surprised and suspicious expression.

He wondered how the Nether Fox could discern directions amidst this ghostly mist.

Is it just idle talk, or is it actually true?

Why then did it take such a generous action and reveal the direction of the Sea of Disorder to itself?

Could it really be as the Nether Fox said, to repay a life-saving debt?

He did not readily believe what the Nether Fox said.

Song Wen instructed the Ghost King to be on guard against the Nether Fox, while he himself began a meticulous search of the island.

Since cultivators from the Divine Blood Sect once frequented this island, they must have left some traces.

Perhaps we can find the way to the Sea of Disorder from within it.

The reef island is only a few miles in size.

However, the ghostly mist has an extremely strong suppressive effect on Divine Sense.

Song Wen could only slowly search the island with his eyes.

Unfortunately, the island was pitch black with extremely poor visibility, making progress very slow.

Fifteen minutes later.

He discovered an underground entrance on one corner of the reef island.

Several meters inward from the entrance lies cave abode about an acre in size.

Song Wen speculated that this cave abode was probably the residence of the Divine Blood Sect disciples who were stationed on this island.

In a corner of the cave abode, he found a pile of dry bone fragments.

There was a storage ring among the bone fragments.

To Song Wen's great disappointment, due to the passage of time, the storage ring had lost all its spiritual power, the storage space had long since collapsed, and the items inside had also vanished.

However, he found several lines of small seal script characters on the bluestone ground beneath the bone fragments.

Its contents record this person's life and cause of death.

This person was originally a disciple of the Nether God Temple, and was ordered to guard the Teleportation Array here.

One day, he encountered a powerful Wraith and was injured by Wraith.

He was severely injured and unable to save himself.

He tried various methods to contact his fellow disciples in the Endless Desert and the Sea of Disorder, but received no response.

It seemed as if he and the Teleportation Array here had been abandoned by the Nether God Temple.

Finally, it perished here.

At the end of these few lines of small print, it is mentioned. "Three thousand miles to the east, beyond the Ghost Mist Domain, there is an island where cultivators from the Nether God Temple are stationed."

This person hoped that whoever found his remains would hand them over to the Nether God Temple, in which the Nether God Temple would offer a large reward.

Perhaps considering that the place was dark and sunless, making it impossible to discern directions, the person also drew an arrow after the text.

The direction the arrow points is exactly opposite to the direction indicated by the Nether Fox.

Song Wen's spirits lifted; the information this person left behind before his death was more credible than the information provided by the Nether Fox.

He turned and left the cave abode, summoning back the Ghost King was monitoring the Nether Fox. He instructed the Ghost King to scout ahead, and then, in the direction indicated by the arrow, he mounted his sword and prepared to leave.

When the Nether Fox saw Song Wen suddenly leave, its fox eyes were filled with surprise.

"Human Race, you've gone the wrong way. Following your chosen path will only lead you deeper into the Ghost Mist Domain, where you'll eventually become lost in the vast Ghostly Mist."

Song Wen glanced at the Nether Fox but didn't reply. He then activated his flying sword and disappeared into the vast ghostly mist.

The Nether Fox stared at the spot where Song Wen had disappeared for a long time.

His expression was full of hesitation, but in the end he did not follow Song Wen.

Its injuries were too severe, and it wasn't entirely confident it could defeat Song Wen.

Moreover, it discovered that this Ghost Mist Domain was more suitable for survival and cultivation than the Nether God Temple in the Endless Desert.

The Formation Plate is no longer of much use to it.

It's not worth risking your life to hunt down Song Wen for something useless.

However, it was somewhat curious: how did this Human Race suddenly manage to find the correct location?

The ability of the Nether Fox to perceive precise locations within the ghostly mist is related to their innate talent.

Did the Human Race discover something in that cave abode?

The Nether Fox spirit pondered this as it entered the cave abode.

It found the cave abode to be quite nice, so it claimed cave abode as its own and settled down there.
