The Dark Tide was a forbidden place, where entering meant facing a nine-in-ten chance of death.

The young man bowed and said, “Please rest assured, Your Highness, the Princely Heir has brought with him the ‘Sun Mirror’!”

The ‘Sun Mirror’ was the treasure heirloom mirror carried by the Princely Heir, the progenitor of all mirrors within the Sealed Emperor’s Palace.

The bronze mirrors currently used in the Sealed Emperor’s Palace for traversing the Chaos were but mere replicas of the ‘Sun Mirror’.

With the ‘Sun Mirror,’ the injury that the Dark Tide could inflict upon the Princely Heir would be minimized, and taking down a person of Stepping Sky Three-fold would be a breeze.

The deposed Crown Prince furrowed his brows, fell silent for a moment, and ultimately shook his head.

“Connect with the ‘Sun Mirror,’ and call him back!”

He knew his son all too well, a true genius indeed – reclaiming the Immortal Sword posed no problem, but he might have fallen into a human trap.

He would rather give up the Immortal Sword than risk that foolhardy boy encountering an accident in the Dark Tide.

It might damage his foundation, a kind that could take a myriad of years to recover from, if ever.

Over these hundred thousand years, he had seen too many Cultivators fall into the clutches of the Dark Tide.

The young man paused for a moment, then bowed and said, “Yes!”

…

The Dark Tide rolled and surged like a raging torrent.

Strange wisp-like screams pierced through, invading Su Huanian’s mind.

A bizarre and eerie noise resounded throughout her Intention Orifice, as if porcelain was being scraped against a water jug, a shrill sound striking directly at her soul, aiming to strip and devour it completely.

Su Huanian’s delicate body trembled slightly.

The soul damage from the Dark Tide was different from her husband’s Divine God Might.

While Divine God Might was straightforward and righteous, aiming to suppress the soul,

The Dark Tide was deceitful to the extreme!

Perceiving the noise from the Dark Tide, Su Huanian’s pupils focused, and a faint blue light flashed in her sea of consciousness.

The Power of the Divine God Soul emerged from her body, forcefully repelling the Dark Tide that had invaded her sea of consciousness.

As the Dark Tide churned and attempted another assault, a sound of Sword Ring emanated from Su Huanian.

The encroaching Dark Tide, like mice before a cat, instantly retreated, coiling in the distance as though observing Su Huanian in terror.

Following that, the Dark Tide not only refrained from approaching but actually seemed to fear her!

This situation was beyond Su Huanian’s expectations.

It wasn’t her first encounter with the Dark Tide; she had been there a hundred years ago when the Mystery Yellow Cave Sky opened and had ventured into the Dark Tide before.

Back then, the atmosphere of the Mystery Yellow Cave Sky hadn’t been as menacing as this time, with Mystery Huang mingling and the Seal Emperor exuding a killing intent.

Back then, many from the Demonic Realm had come in search of treasures.

During that foray into the Dark Tide, she only managed to avoid injury, without actually frightening the Dark Tide away.

Was it because this time she had broken her previous limit, mobilizing more Power of the Divine Gods?

The Dark Tide of the Mystery Yellow Cave Sky, akin to a predator seeing its prey, becomes more powerful with higher Boundary Status.

Only when the Divine God Soul Spiritual Intensity far exceeded one’s Boundary Status could one withstand the assault of the Dark Tide.

Or, much like those who remained in the Sealed Emperor’s Palace even after the Cave Heavens closed, turning themselves into a corpse by sealing away their souls in a special way, thus temporarily disbanding their soul and putting themselves in a state of ignorance, rendering them unscathed by the Dark Tide.

Su Huanian dispelled the Dark Tide and opened her eyes.

In her peripheral vision, she caught a glimpse of golden light behind her.

Turning her head, she saw the three people who had been pursuing her previously, each brandishing a mirror as they charged into the fray.

Su Huanian’s eyebrows knitted slightly as she retreated into the Dark Tide.

Here we go again!

A hundred years ago, she had been pursued into the Dark Tide out of desperation.

As the Mystery Yellow Cave Sky event ended and she emerged, it wasn’t long before she was chased into the Seven Absolute Secret Realm, where she underwent the Heavenly Tribulation, ascended to Stepping Sky, and then turned the tables with a successful counter-kill.

This time she had been driven into the Dark Tide again by pursuers.

Just a mere hundred years had passed; last time it was a pursuit at the peak of Demonic Realm, and this time it had escalated to the peak of Stepping Sky.

Su Huanian gripped the Immortal Sword, her True Yuan pulsing and flowing into the sword, seemingly merging her being with the Immortal Sword.

In such a state, coupled with the True Yuan that Ji Feixue had left within the Immortal Sword, there was no need for her to unleash her Origin to wield thirty percent of the Immortal Sword’s power.

Eradicating those at Stepping Sky Six-fold was no issue, but as for the one at Stepping Sky Seven-fold, who could match the Crown Prince of the Sealed Emperor Palace, it was unlikely to cause him injury.

However, as long as she could shatter the mirror outside his body, that would be enough!

On the Spirit Immortal Sword, tiny Artifact Spirit Ya Ya flashed by, establishing a spiritual connection, merging with Su Huanian’s heart and soul.

Su Huanian turned her head slightly, her gaze directed toward the depths of the Mystery Yellow Cave.

There was something there, calling out to her incessantly through the Spirit Immortal Sword!

An incredibly familiar sensation welled up inside her.

Three beams of light pierced the dimensional membrane and charged into the Dark Tide.

The three hunters searched frantically in all directions, and from afar, they caught sight of a striking figure, a sword in hand, standing firm.

It was that woman!

“Kill!” the Princely Heir exclaimed in a low voice, the two at Stepping Sky Six-fold beside him lunged with their long guns, and soared toward Su Huanian.
