"Although this evil spirit has been suppressed, its remaining will can still occasionally affect the ancient evil spirits sealed in the upper levels of Purgatory, causing riots."

I suspect the Devil Ancestor has even infiltrated the Reincarnation Purgatory, attempting to unleash this fiend and completely disrupt the situation.

The Heavenly Emperor said solemnly.

He wasn't too worried about those ancient beings from the Immortal Realm being released.

Even if one achieves the Hunyuan Wuji, it is still an unorthodox path to enlightenment, and one's strength is not worth fearing.

However, the strength of that great enemy, the Immortal Ancestor, was unfathomable, forcing him to take him seriously and even specifically seek out Han Xuanji.

Han Xuanji nodded slightly:

"In other words, to completely quell this disturbance, we must go deep into the ninth level and reinforce or even re-suppress that Chaos fiend?"

"Exactly."

The Heavenly Emperor's eyes shone brightly as he said:

"However, the ninth level is no small matter. Even powerful beings at the Hunyuan level are susceptible to the erosion of the ancient Ruins of Return accumulated Sha Qi within, and there is also an extremely ferocious being watching us with predatory eyes."

Moreover, in purgatory, time and space are disordered, and cause and effect are entangled, making it extremely easy to fall into a passive position.

Therefore, it requires the combined efforts of beings above the Hunyuan Taiji: one to stabilize the reincarnation channel and resist the possible collective attack from the Devil Ancestor and the higher-level ferocious beings; the other should ideally be able to delve into the Bottom of the Ruins of Return and activate the power of the ' Innate Chaos Suppression Stele ' to suppress it once again.

He looked at Han Xuanji and said frankly:

"I wield the power of Heavenly Dao's Dao, and can mobilize the power of the Immortal Realm's origin to stabilize the cycle of reincarnation, making it most suitable to isolate the inside from the outside."

"Fellow Daoist, you possess great strength and skillful methods."

The Heavenly Emperor paused, a hint of apology flashing in his eyes.

"At that time, you may need to travel to the ninth level of the Reincarnation Purgatory to confront that great ferocity."

"However, fellow Daoist, rest assured, this fiend was severely injured by the Immortal Ancestor, and its strength has been greatly reduced. It is impossible for it to do anything to you. But for an ordinary Hunyuan Taiji Realm to encounter this fiend would undoubtedly be courting death."

Han Xuanji remained silent for a moment, his mind racing as he weighed the options.

The Heavenly Emperor's arrangement seemed reasonable, but it undoubtedly placed him in a more dangerous yet more central position.

They think highly of him.

However, Han Xuanji didn't seem to have much resistance to it.

He had already calculated the cause and effect, and what the Heavenly Emperor said was true.

Most importantly, the Reincarnation Purgatory, a perilous place related to the Immortal Ancestor, is an absolutely rare and unique place to visit outside the world.

Even if the Heavenly Emperor didn't say anything, he still planned to go.

"I can intervene in this matter, but..."

Han Xuanji finally spoke, looking at the Heavenly Emperor and making his decision.

Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Emperor breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fellow Daoist, please speak."

"My Dao Palace is newly established, and I am busy with many matters. I will observe this matter for a while first."

Han Xuanji made her bottom line and style of conduct clear.

He can go, but he can't agree too easily.

Besides, he also wanted to take this time to further improve his skills in order to avoid any mishaps.

Even though the Immortal Ancestor's great enemy has been weakened by countless years and his strength is reduced to less than one-tenth, he is not someone to be trifled with.

Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Emperor felt reassured.

Han Xuanji to achieve this level is already excellent.

He hadn't expected the other party to go all out for the sake of the " Immortal Realm order" or any other noble cause. Just getting their promise that they wouldn't stand against him was enough.

The Heavenly Emperor said with delight:

"Let's see what you plan, fellow Daoist. I will carefully investigate the Devil Ancestor's actions. Even if the Devil Ancestor makes a move, this Dao Ancestor's seal is not Devil Ancestor can easily break. There will be at least a thousand years to allow for a buffer."

"Can."

Upon hearing this, Han Xuanji felt somewhat relieved.

A thousand years is enough time for him to go further.

Even if he can't break through to the Late Hunyuan Wuji, he can still go a step further and be much stronger than he is now.

"Excellent! Fellow Daoist, your righteousness is truly admirable!"

The Heavenly Emperor couldn't help but show a look of delight on his face.

"In that case, I will take my leave first and await your good news!"

After uttering these words, the Heavenly Emperor's will vanished in a stream of light.

Han Xuanji sat quietly for a moment, a barely perceptible smile curving his lips.

" The Reincarnation Purgatory... the Chaos and calamity... that's rather interesting."

Han Xuanji murmured to himself.

He had previously attempted to explore the entirety of the Land of Reincarnation, only to discover that some areas were impenetrable.

It seems most likely to be that hellish place of Reincarnation Purgatory.

With the power of the Dao Ancestor and the Immortal Ancestor contained within, even he could not fathom its full extent.

"Perfect opportunity! Let's take this chance to see just how deep the waters of this Land of Reincarnation really are, and as for those ancient beings that have been suppressed..."

A hint of indifference flashed in Han Xuanji's eyes:

"If they behave themselves, fine. But if they're truly courting death and dare to rebel, or even collude with the Devil Ancestor... then we'll just have to refine them."

For Han Xuanji, improving her own strength was the most important thing.

For him, this Reincarnation Purgatory was no different from an fortuitous opportunity.

But fortuitous opportunity also require the ability to seize them.

The Immortal Realm, the Land of Reincarnation.

Su Ming continued to cultivate diligently in the Underworld, having already reported the matter of the Reincarnation Purgatory to Han Xuanji.

Han Xuanji's reply was simple: he was to keep an eye on the Reincarnation Purgatory and let him know if anything happened.

However, this also reminded Su Ming that the Reincarnation Purgatory was extremely dangerous, and that he should retreat immediately if there were any unusual movements, and not act rashly.

Su Ming naturally listened to Han Xuanji's words, and he simply had someone from the Nether Lord keep a close eye on the situation in the Reincarnation Purgatory.

Upon learning that it was Han Xuanji's idea, the Nether Lord dared not relax his vigilance in the slightest.

He knew perfectly well that being able to cling to Han Xuanji's coattails was better than anything else.

Those beings Reincarnation Purgatory are incredibly naive to think they can command the wind and rain like they did in ancient times once they emerge.

"Adults... times have changed."

The Nether Lord pondered silently.

Back then, although he was Chaos Devil God, his strength wasn't exactly top-tier.

Even he couldn't afford to offend some of the ancient beings in the Immortal Realm.

However, fortunes change, and now he has made a name for himself.

He knew of some beings in the Land of Reincarnation who seemed to have sided with the Devil Ancestor and were secretly taking action.

The Nether Lord didn't care and simply followed Han Xuanji's instructions, avoiding alerting the enemy.

Previously, under endless cycles of reincarnation, the place where the Reincarnation Principle were distorted and converged was the Reincarnation Purgatory.

This is not space in the material sense, but a cage created by the Immortal Ancestor with his supreme power.

A Youying, almost perfectly integrated with the Sha Qi, was moving through this space in a way that defied all logic.

He did not tear space apart, nor did he cause any ripples in space. Instead, like the most primal evil itself, he flowed quietly along with the resentment unconsciously emitted by those suppressed in purgatory.

It was an avatar of the Devil Ancestor, its aura extremely restrained, solely for the purpose of infiltrating this forbidden land of Samsara Forbidden Land.

A head-on confrontation has proven to be an unwise strategy; the newly ascended Mystic Heaven Dao Venerable's strength and fortune have exceeded expectations.

A direct assault would be too costly and could easily trigger a full-scale war, which is not what he currently desires.

The Devil Ancestor's gaze fell upon a figure in the distance:

" The Dao Ancestor... Ha, in the name of order, he actually carries out suppression."

You cleanse the demons and straighten the Heavenly Dao order, casting all those who are unruly and unwilling to submit into the millstone of reincarnation, ostensibly to temper their ferocity, but in reality, they are merely necessary stepping stones and prisoners under the foundation of your ideal, orderly world.

The Devil Ancestor pondered in his heart. He knew that the ancient beings suppressed in the purgatory, whether they were the Twelve Shaman Gods who wielded the power of nature or the Chaos Remnant Clan of the Chaos Clan, had long since turned their resentment and unwillingness towards the Dao Ancestor and the current Immortal Realm into the most flammable kindling after fermenting for a long period of sealing.

"The enemy of my enemy is my friend."

The Devil Ancestor thought this to himself.

He planned to have a serious discussion with these guys about "cooperation".
