The next day, Chen Mu started packing his things early in the morning, putting a lot of supplies into his spatial wrist, and even preparing a lot of food.

Traveling through the Chaotic Void is fraught with unpredictable events, and he didn't know how long it would take to return, so naturally he wanted to bring plenty of supplies.

Although he had reached a level where he no longer needed to eat, enjoying delicious food was still a pleasure. If he couldn't get used to the food in the Netherworld, at least he could bring his own to satisfy his cravings.

" Chen Mu, I'm ready. Can you leave now?"

Mingye arrived outside Chen Mu's courtyard and urged him loudly.

"Well, I'm almost done too. Wait for me a little longer."

Chen Mu responded from inside the room, then stuffed a pastry that Meng Hui had just made into his spatial wrist before bidding Meng Hui farewell.

"Mother, I'm leaving now. Please take care of yourself, I'll be back as soon as possible."

Okay! You too, be careful when you're out.

"Once you've resolved things with Mingye, come back as soon as possible. Don't forget, you still have an agreement with your father."

Before parting, Meng Hui couldn't help but mention Chen Mu's father, hoping that Chen Mu wouldn't be too wild outside and would come back soon.

"Don't worry! I've never forgotten what happened to my father."

I've already made arrangements. I'll start dealing with those matters once I return from the Netherworld.

Chen Mu walked up to Meng Hui and gave his mother a big hug.

"That's good, it's good that you remember..."

At Meng Hui's nagging, Chen Mu left the room.

Chen Mu drove the Rune Puppet Flying Car and arrived at Nether Luo Mountain with Mingye in the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

Back then, in order to assist Mingye's cultivation, Chen Mu transformed the entire Nether Luo Mountain into a large-scale cultivation-aid formation called the ' Taiji Yin-Yang Wheel '.

After Mingye emerged from seclusion, the array here was naturally removed, so Death Qi began to condense here again, and many eerie plants grew.

After stepping out of the Rune Puppet Flying Car, Mingye glanced around and said, " Chen Mu, we damaged Nether Luo Mountain so badly back then, it's probably not stable to open a spatial passage to the Netherworld now, is it?"

"How about we go look elsewhere? There are still many places on the Pan Emperor Continent where the Death Qi is dense; it should be easier to open up passages in those places."

"No! Right here."

Chen Mu shook his head, casually storing the Rune Puppet Flying Car into his spatial wrist, before turning to Mingye and saying seriously, "Do you remember what Miao Min said before she died?"

She said you were sold to the slave market by hunters!

This is the closest place to the Flame Blessing Tribe with a rift in the Netherworld, so there's a good chance you were found by a hunter here back then.

"The only way we have a chance to find out about your origins is by going through this spatial rift to the Netherworld. Otherwise, with such a vast dimension as the Netherworld, searching for you would be like looking for a needle in a haystack."

Upon hearing this, Mingye hesitated for a moment, then nodded. "Alright then! Whatever you say."

She wasn't unaware of this principle, but unstable spatial rifts were extremely dangerous. She simply didn't want Chen Mu to take too much risk, but since Chen Mu insisted, she had no choice but to agree.

"Wait for me a moment. I'll set up an array here to make the spatial passage we open more stable."

As Chen Mu spoke, he took out some array flags and Fu Mo from his storage ring and immediately began to set them up.

"Okay! Take your time, there's no rush."

Mingye obediently stood aside and quietly watched Chen Mu set up the formation.

In the center of Chen Mu's right eye, the pupil suddenly contracted and disappeared. Immediately afterwards, runes appeared and combined to form a mysterious Bagua (Eight Trigrams) pattern, replacing the original pupil. It was incredibly magical.

In Chen Mu's eyes, the world he saw now was very different from what he saw with his naked eye. The originally chaotic flow of the five elements Spiritual Power became incredibly clear, and he could also see the spatial rifts and the lines of spatial rules at a glance.

Since merging with the power of the Taichu, Chen Mu discovered that many things about the Taichu were similar to his own Battle Talisman Master cultivation system. His neuronal cultivation also broke through one after another, and now he has reached the point of being able to generate 100,000 Thought in an instant.

With his powerful neurons, the ' Absolute Insight ' ability in his right eye has also been upgraded. Although it is not as terrifying as when he merged with the Taichu, where he could easily see through all rules, it is still easy for him to focus on seeing through a certain Rules of Heaven and Earth.

Being able to discern the rules of space makes setting up cross-dimensional arrays much easier. Chen Mu quickly wielded the Nine Heavens Blazing Sun Brush on the array flags, and within a dozen breaths, he had completed the creation of more than a dozen array flags.

The array he's setting up isn't a stable interdimensional teleportation array; it's merely a one-time use array to help him break through this spatial rift. It will automatically destroy itself after one use, which is why he set it up so quickly.

Whoosh whoosh!

Chen Mu planted more than a dozen array flags on the ground, creating a strange spatial matrix. The nodes of the matrix echoed each other, and finally condensed into a beam of light that shone into the air, and a spatial black hole slowly opened up.

"Okay, let's go!"

Chen Mu took a step forward and flew to the side of the spatial black hole, gesturing for Mingye to come up.

Mingye didn't hesitate and flew to Chen Mu's side, about to go inside side by side with Chen Mu.

" Mingye, hold my hand! The power of the void turbulence is immense; this way, you won't easily get lost."

Chen Mu extended his right hand and chuckled.

Mingye glared at Chen Mu with annoyance, but did not refuse. She placed her hand in Chen Mu's large palm, which Chen Mu immediately grasped tightly, his face almost beaming with joy.

"Hold on tight, let's go!"

Chen Mu excitedly pulled Mingye into the spatial rift. Judging from Chen Mu's smug look, anyone who didn't know better would think he was going on a honeymoon instead of a lonely and boring void traversal.

The vast universe, the endless void.

For any living being, traversing the void is not a pleasant experience, because most areas of the Chaotic Void are extremely desolate, devoid not only of living beings but also of matter.

Seeing a glimmer of light occasionally is not necessarily a good thing; it could very well be a terrifying chaotic catastrophe. Any cultivator with even a little experience in traversing the void knows to avoid them.

When leaving the Pan Emperor Continent, Chen Mu specially created a timer that could be activated in the Chaotic Void, so that he could know how long he had been flying.

" Chen Mu, I have a bad feeling. According to the Ancient Star Road map, the distance between the Netherworld and the Pan Emperor Continent is not far."

We've been flying for almost half a month, how come we still haven't found the entrance to the Netherworld?

Before heading to the Netherworld, Chen Mu and Mingye spent a lot of time gathering information about Netherworld, so they were very knowledgeable about Netherworld.

However, the facts now differed from the information they had found, and Mingye couldn't help but start to worry.
