Just when Ning Zhang was about to close Yuandian and deal with the mess, he suddenly felt the scroll in his hand tremble violently.

What's going on?

Ning Zhang lowered his head in surprise, not noticing anything strange at all, until his eyes fell on the lower left corner of Yuan Dian, where two small characters were disappearing quickly, as if they had been erased by an invisible pen.

That was... written by Yu Ling himself, his name.

Ning Zhang could hardly believe his eyes, so that instead of thinking about what had happened to Yu Ling, he thought there was something wrong with Yuan Dian.

Because from ancient times to the present, whoever has a name on a scroll can be said to be a mirror to heaven and earth, and a witness to Tao. Even if a person dies and his soul is destroyed, his name will never disappear.

But now, a shocking phenomenon that goes against common sense was born under his nose.

What the hell is going on?!

Ning Zhang couldn't help but feel a little dazed. Finally, a strong sense of crisis brought him back to his thoughts, followed by his subordinates exclaiming: "Sir, be careful!"

Ning Zhang raised his head, and what came into his field of vision was bright red blood, boundless.

Dodge? Resist hard?

He didn't even have time to think, blood flooded the whole world like a tide.

It was strange that he couldn't feel the severe pain, because he couldn't even feel the existence of his own body. Only his consciousness was sinking towards the bottomless abyss, as if he was about to drown in the dark sea.

There is no way to struggle and no way to resist.

Is this the end of life...

After an unknown amount of time, his five senses gradually recovered. Ning Zhang seemed to have risen from the bottom of the sea to the surface, and his hazy consciousness finally woke up.

For a moment, he almost thought he had returned to the netherworld.

However, an unbearable burning sensation suddenly filled every nerve, and the severe pain was like being cut into pieces by a thousand knives, almost making him scream.

Then Ning Zhang realized that he was still alive.

"My lord, my lord, you finally woke up..."

In the blurred field of vision, a familiar face appeared close to him, seemingly one of his subordinates.

"I...what's wrong?"

Ning Zhang tried to speak, but what came out of his throat was a strange and harsh sound, and he could only barely send out a ray of soul thought.

"Sir, Yu Ling ran away! He, he is from the Xuanling tribe!" Su Yuanwei's voice was filled with bitterness, but more of it was filled with unconcealable fear.

"What?!" Ning Zhang didn't know where he got the strength, and suddenly sat up from the ground. He saw his leg bones with almost no flesh left at a glance, and subconsciously took a breath of cold air.

"Sir, we have given you the best healing elixirs we have, but your injuries have hardly improved. This is clearly... the Xuanling Clan's law of destruction." Su Yuanwei said in a serious tone.

Ning Zhang was stunned for a while. He slowly stretched out his hands. As expected, they turned into white bones. The space ring was empty on his fingers, looking extremely desolate.

He couldn't deceive himself, because at this moment, there was still an endless stream of sharp energy wreaking havoc in his body, and he was so domineering that it was unparalleled.

"Yuling..." Ning Zhang said this familiar name with some emotion, his tone filled with a deep chill, "It turns out that he is the most deeply hidden remnant of the Xuan Ling..."

He used his soul power to take out a Dao pill and drank it quickly. Only then did traces of flesh and blood appear on his body, but his whole body was as terrifying as a zombie.

"Quickly, inform your majesty, as well as all the elders of the clan who have left the Tao realm, to block the teleportation array and never let him leave here!" Ning Zhang gritted his teeth and couldn't help but cough violently due to his excitement.

"Sir, this space has been twisted and sealed by him. We cannot break through the confinement for a while, so we cannot spread the news to the outside world..." Su Yuanwei could not hide his anxiety.

"Form up and try again!" Ning Zhang stood up from the ground with difficulty, his body swaying.

"Sir, your body..."

"Quick, what time has it been? Don't you still know your priorities?" Ning Zhang shouted sharply.

"……yes!"

Most of the Su Yuanwei present were seriously injured. At this moment, they dragged their exhausted bodies to form a battle formation, resonating their spiritual power with the Taoist rhyme, like hundreds of rivers flowing into the sea, converging at one point.

"Buzz——"

As Ning Zhang threw a spear and penetrated a certain node in the void, the distorted space was brought into order and the connection with the outside world was restored.

"Huh..." Ning Zhang breathed, his face getting paler.

He had never been so weak as he was today, and even such a simple movement seemed to exhaust all his strength.

"Quickly, you contact His Majesty, you contact Elder Yun, you contact..." Ning Zhang gave the order in a hoarse voice, speaking as fast as thunder.

However, as soon as the several Suyuan guards who were pointed out took out the communication talisman, they felt the ground beneath their feet shake, and then a beam of blue-black light shot up into the sky from the northwest corner.

"That's..." Everyone looked at the light pillar in shock. Even from such a long distance, the aura fluctuations like the vast sea still made people's souls tremble.

"Damn it, how could he know about that seal..." Ning Zhang's expression changed drastically, and he knew with his knees that this change must have something to do with Yu Ling.

"Hurry up and report as I just said. I'll go to the Jiuyi Bridge first to take a look!" Ning Zhang's flesh and blood has recovered to 70%. Although he felt palpitations when he thought of Yu Ling's blow just now, but

If he doesn't come forward at this time, no one will be able to stop the traitor.

I just don't know that by the time he rushes over, it won't be too late.

…

Below the quaint suspension bridge is an endless abyss. Even the members of the royal family who have lived in Shangyuan Palace since childhood, many do not know what secrets are hidden under the abyss.

They only know that the Nine Different Bridges have sealed nine kinds of ferocious beasts. Once the Yuanling clan encounters a disaster, they can use it to hide from the sky and ward off the disaster.

But Yu Ling heard Yun Mengdie say from the beginning that the Nine Different Bridges themselves formed an extremely powerful sealing formation, and the formation's eye was at the bottom of the abyss.

Those who were fortunate enough to be treated with such solemnity were none other than the You Wu clan among the Supreme Imperial Beasts.

To be precise, there are only two clans of supreme royal beasts left now, Youwu and Tixiang. The former is sealed in the Yuanling clan, and the latter is kept in captivity in the Daoling clan.

To be more precise, only the last two spirit beasts of the Youwu Clan are left.

They are Guiyun's parents.

It's just that the seal of the abyss has gathered the power of the Nine Different Bridges. Even if Yun Mengdie masters the original principles, she is not sure that she can break it. Moreover, once the seal is released, she and her tribe will be completely separated.

At that time, Yu Ling thought that one day, when he reached the Li Dao realm, he would do his best to let the You Wu clan regain their freedom.

But now that he has become a heinous traitor, there is no turning back.

He did not break through to the last level of Daoyuan Jue, but he reached the state of leaving the Dao of self-contained Taoism, because he no longer had to follow the trajectory of this technique.

He is walking on a brand new road, one that has never been walked before and no one will come after.

When the Xuanling bloodline reappeared in the world, a certain power that had been suppressed for a long time was finally released.

Things that have been dormant now seem to be released.

Fish swim in the sea, birds fly in the sky, this is the body of freedom.

As a result, the vast world in Yu Ling's soul sea has become more and more perfect. If it were projected, others might not be able to distinguish between reality and illusion.

Chaos, deviance, and virtual soul are all transcendent in nature.

The three major systems are integrated into one, and the white light and the great cycle are indistinguishable from each other. Even if they are at the peak of leaving the Tao, they may not be incapable of fighting.

Only this realm can give Yu Ling enough confidence.

What he held in his hand was Ningmo, who had been missing for a long time. With just two swords, he broke the seemingly indestructible seal.

Ningmo's Qi became deeper and more restrained, but his majestic and domineering spirit never diminished at all.

Yu Ling didn't know how that guy from Sword Spirit became a teacher. Anyway, Ning Mo looked like he wasn't crooked. It wouldn't be too late to find out more about it later.

He squinted his eyes and stared at the beam of light in front of him. After it dimmed slightly, he finally caught two faint auras.

What came into view were two palm-sized blue-black light balls. They had been weakened to the extreme, and their light was flickering, and they could be extinguished at any time like flickering candles.

Yu Ling put it into her sleeves, and without a moment's hesitation, she went straight to the northwest gate of Shangyuan Palace.

He did not consider the teleportation array in the palace, because once Ning Zhang and others regained their composure, the first thing they would do was to block the teleportation array. Then wouldn't he be throwing himself into a trap?

After all, Emperor Yuanling, who was at the peak of Li Dao, could do nothing to Yu Ling, but Yu Ling could also do nothing to him. Once he was dragged here, the consequences could be imagined.

Closer, closer.

Thanks to the Daoling clan's spatial Daoyan compass, Yuling's spatial attainments reached a level second only to Hekong Kongzun. In a moment, the magnificent palace gate was already in sight.

Very good. There are no strong masters appearing in the Qi machine induction. They probably haven't reacted yet.

Yu Ling's figure appeared in front of the gate like a ghost. Under the astonished and bewildered gazes of the guards, he raised his sword and swept it across in one motion. The transparent formation barrier was riddled with holes in an instant and disappeared into thin air.

"Your Highness Yuling, you..."

The guards were shocked beyond words and were about to stop him, but they couldn't keep up with Yu Ling's speed, and their hearts suddenly went cold.

What is going on? Why did Yu Ling suddenly appear here? Did no one stop him along the way?

"well……"

A deep sigh suddenly sounded, as if it was far away in the horizon, but also seemed to be close to my ears.

Yu Ling's figure suddenly stiffened, as if she was stuck in the mud, and every move was extremely difficult.

He slowly turned his head and saw an old figure appearing ten meters away from the palace gate. He was leaning on a cane slowly and hobbling. He did not have the demeanor of a peerless master at all.
