The White Dragon Abyss Lord glanced at Purple Fate Ancestor with an inscrutable expression. "If we manage to leave the Celestial Palace this time, I should find an opportunity to meet with the Great Sun Supreme more often."

Purple Fate Ancestor shot her a look. "Aren''t you afraid of the Sole Hall?"

The Great Sun Supreme had annihilated the Taihuang Palace. In the past, Purple Fate Heaven would have been bustling with activity, with visitors coming and going in droves. However, after Qi Yuan destroyed the Taihuang Palace, he had also offended the Sole Hall, which had initiated the Linya Transformation. As a result, despite Qi Yuan''s immense power, not many Supremes openly sided with him. Instead, they kept their distance to avoid being targeted by the Sole Hall.

"Afraid? But I''m even more afraid that I won''t survive the Root Demon Tribulation," the White Dragon Abyss Lord sighed. "Being powerful is a tribulation in itself. It was best when we were just Yin Gods, carefree and without worries. We didn''t have to worry about the Linya Transformation or whether we would die in the next Root Demon Tribulation."

Of course, the White Dragon Abyss Lord was merely venting. If given the choice, she would never willingly return to the Yin God Realm. However, the life of a Yang God in the Supreme Truth Realm of the Immortal World was fraught with too many troubles. A single misstep could lead to the fall of even a Great Supreme Truth expert.

"Instead of thinking about returning to the Yin God Realm, why not focus on breaking through to the third layer of the Yang God Realm?" Purple Fate Ancestor said. "Perhaps once this Linya Transformation ends and the Seven Heavens of the Immortal World are fully constructed, we might have a chance to advance further."

"The Seven Heavens of the Immortal World... It''s not so easy to complete their construction," the White Dragon Abyss Lord sighed.

At that moment, Purple Fate Ancestor''s gaze suddenly sharpened.

"What is that?"

In the distant horizon, an endless surge of Eternal Calamity Radiance erupted. The scene was apocalyptic. Yet, amidst all the Eternal Calamity Radiance, three emerald-green fruits seemed to fly out. When Purple Fate Ancestor saw those three fruits, his expression changed dramatically.

The White Dragon Abyss Lord also widened her eyes in shock. "There are actually fruits within the Eternal Calamity Radiance? Those emerald fruits... they must be divine fruits!"

The Eternal Calamity Radiance could even corrode Supreme Truth experts. Yet, there were fruits emerging from within it. How could they not be shocked?

Without hesitation, the two of them chased after the direction in which the three divine fruits were flying. Fortunately, one of the fruits was heading toward their location. Behind that fruit, several streaks of light followed. Clearly, other Yang Gods had also noticed the fruit and were trying to seize it.

As the divine fruit drew closer, Purple Fate Ancestor''s face revealed excitement.

"Let''s work together to secure the fruit. We can split it later!" the White Dragon Abyss Lord transmitted her voice.

Among those chasing the fruit were a few formidable experts who warranted caution.

"Agreed," Purple Fate Ancestor replied without hesitation.

"I''ll hold them off. You intercept the fruit!" the White Dragon Abyss Lord suggested.

Her figure suddenly grew majestic and towering. A pure white dragon soared into the sky, its dragon roar echoing across the heavens. Its claws and body spanned the firmament as terrifying Supreme Truth rules surged forth, causing the void to tremble. r?ΑΝo?bE?S??

"White Dragon Abyss Lord, how dare you!" an angry roar erupted.

The voice belonged to a Great Supreme Truth expert. Seeing that the divine fruit was about to fall into someone else''s hands, he was furious.

"This treasure has a connection with us. It''s flying toward us. How could we not take it?" the White Dragon Abyss Lord replied with a faint smile.

Meanwhile, Purple Fate Ancestor had already condensed his Supreme Truth power and was carefully reaching out to grab the divine fruit. The other Yang Gods watching this scene could only sigh in regret. With two Great Supreme Truth experts working together, aside from that Supreme, no one else could snatch the fruit.

The Great Supreme Truth expert from Ghost Heaven also showed a look of disappointment. The divine fruit was clearly an extraordinary treasure, a rare and priceless item. He could only watch helplessly as Purple Fate Ancestor seized the fruit. However, in the next moment, he was stunned.

The White Dragon Abyss Lord''s expression also changed drastically.

"Be careful!"

She looked at Purple Fate Ancestor with deep concern. The moment Purple Fate Ancestor''s Supreme Truth touched the divine fruit, an overwhelming aura of rules erupted from within the fruit. In an instant, Purple Fate Ancestor''s Supreme Truth shattered, and his aura weakened significantly.

He stared in disbelief. "What kind of fruit is this?"

With just a single touch, he had been severely injured. How could he not be shocked? If this fruit were to be made into a weapon specifically designed to deal with Great Supreme Truth experts, the consequences would be unimaginable. After all, even a Supreme couldn''t injure him so easily. Yet, an ordinary fruit had done so. How could he not be alarmed?

"Be careful! This fruit contains an endless flame aura. Don''t touch it!" Even though he was injured, Purple Fate Ancestor still transmitted his voice to the White Dragon Abyss Lord.

Seeing this, the White Dragon Abyss Lord also became wary of the fruit and didn''t dare to act rashly. At that moment, the fruit suddenly... vanished.

Some of the other Yang Gods hesitated, while others continued to chase after the fruit without a second thought. The expert from Ghost Heaven also gave chase.

"How are you?" the White Dragon Abyss Lord asked with concern.

"I won''t die," Purple Fate Ancestor replied. However, his current condition was far from good. The Supreme Truth he had comprehended seemed to have been melted by the fruit, leaving it in tatters.

"Your condition is very unstable," the White Dragon Abyss Lord frowned. "What exactly is that fruit?"

A fruit that emerged from the Eternal Calamity Radiance, capable of injuring a Great Supreme Truth expert—how could she not be shocked?

"Within that fruit, I sensed an endless flame aura, but... it''s different from ordinary flames," Purple Fate Ancestor said, frowning.

At that moment, the Great Supreme Truth expert from Ghost Heaven appeared. He looked at Purple Fate Ancestor with a wary expression. "Purple Fate Ancestor, what exactly did you encounter when you touched that fruit?"

The divine fruit was too fast. Even he hadn''t been able to catch up.

"Why should I tell you, Xian Zang?" Purple Fate Ancestor retorted.

"Hmph, if you hadn''t stopped me, that divine fruit would already be in my possession. I haven''t even settled this score with you yet!" Xian Zang said, his tone hostile. "Don''t think that just because you have the Great Sun Supreme backing you, I''m afraid of you!"

Xian Zang was from Ghost Heaven. Aside from him, there was also a Supreme in Ghost Heaven. Therefore, he wasn''t afraid of Purple Fate Ancestor.

"Heh, I have the Great Sun Supreme backing me. What about you?" Purple Fate Ancestor said lazily, a smug expression on his face.

"You..." Xian Zang was furious. "In the Celestial Palace, anything can happen. The Great Sun Supreme has offended the Linya Transformation. Who knows if he''ll survive this Linya Transformation?"

Although he said this, Xian Zang''s confidence was somewhat lacking. He looked at Purple Fate Ancestor, his gaze shifting. "You should worry about your own injuries first. Don''t die inside the Celestial Palace and become one of the Sole Hall''s aberrant spirits."

After saying this, Xian Zang didn''t linger. He had come to try and gather information about the divine fruit. Since Purple Fate Ancestor wasn''t willing to share, he saw no point in staying. With that, his figure vanished.

"You really have a sharp tongue. Don''t forget that the Ghost Supreme is also in the Celestial Palace. If he becomes angered because of this, your days won''t be easy," the White Dragon Abyss Lord warned.

"Hmph," Purple Fate Ancestor snorted. "I won''t tell anyone from Ghost Heaven."

In the past, the Taihuang Palace had been too dominant. The Ghost Control Heaven had submitted to it, leading to conflicts with the Black Demon Abyss. In fact, the Ghost Control Heaven later dared to attack the Black Sword because they had received some news that a Supreme was aligning with the Taihuang Palace. Among the Supremes of the Six Heavens, there were fewer than ten. The Ghost Supreme was highly suspected of being the one who had aligned with the Taihuang Palace. Therefore, Purple Fate Ancestor had no good feelings toward Ghost Heaven.

"Cough... hot... burning..." Purple Fate Ancestor coughed, blood spilling from the corner of his mouth. He felt as if a true flame was scorching his body.@@@@

The White Dragon Abyss Lord''s eyes were filled with worry. "Don''t die inside the Celestial Palace."

She was genuinely concerned. Firstly, the Celestial Palace wasn''t a safe place. One had to constantly face the Eternal Calamity Radiance. Secondly, the other Yang Gods could also be potential enemies. After all, if enough Yang Gods died, the Linya Transformation would end. Thirdly, the Celestial Palace was currently experiencing strange occurrences. Not only was there the Eternal Calamity Radiance, but divine fruits had also appeared. Who knew what else might happen?

"Don''t worry. Even if I die, someone will take care of my funeral," Purple Fate Ancestor said, coughing.

[Eternal Calamity Radiance: Dissolves rules and forges new ones.]

The information he saw confirmed that the Eternal Calamity Radiance was meant to dissolve the rules of the world and reshape them into new ones.

"Even as a god, I cannot achieve omniscience and omnipotence," Qi Yuan sighed.

At that moment, a soft voice suddenly spoke. "Even as a god, one cannot act with complete freedom."

Qi Yuan looked over and saw a figure standing before him. It seemed to be a phantom, with only a wisp of true spirit remaining.

"Who are you?" Qi Yuan asked curiously.

This phantom did not seem to be a being from the Six Heavens.

"I am a disciple of the Five Mountains Wanderer. I accidentally entered this strange world, thinking I could gain countless opportunities, but instead, I perished here," the phantom said.

When mentioning the Five Mountains Wanderer, he seemed filled with pride.

"Five Mountains Wanderer?" Qi Yuan had never heard of this name.

Even in death, the phantom''s face was filled with pride.

"The Five Mountains Wanderer represents the five strongest mountains in existence.

In the Immortal World, they are Mount Sumeru, Mount Dong, Mount Taiqing, Mount Taihuang, and Mount Xuling.

In this Celestial Palace, they might be this mountain, that one, and those over there.

Of course... this is assuming my master has also entered this world."

The Five Mountains Wanderer''s "five mountains" were not fixed. In different worlds, they represented the five "strongest" mountains.

"Your master sounds impressive," Qi Yuan commented.

"If you ever meet my master, please tell him not to save me and not to come to this world!" the phantom said, then laughed bitterly. "Ah, I forgot. You can''t leave this world."

"Is this world special?" Qi Yuan asked.

The Immortal World was indeed special. For one, it was like a cage—Yang Gods could not leave. Secondly, the future of the Immortal World had been severed.

"It''s very special. After all... this place actually has Heterodox Dao Fruits," the phantom said, his eyes filled with fervor.

"In the universe, there are Dao Fruits and Heterodox Dao Fruits.

If a Heterodox Dao Fruit aligns with one''s own path, just one... can allow one to step into the Realm of Rules!"

Each Heterodox Dao Fruit represented a cosmic rule. If one''s Supreme Truth aligned with the rule carried by the Heterodox Dao Fruit, consuming it could allow one to reach the third layer of the Yang God Realm. This shortcut naturally attracted countless powerful beings.

The phantom had been lured by the Heterodox Dao Fruit and entered the Celestial Palace, only to meet his demise.

"Heterodox Dao Fruits?" Qi Yuan murmured.

He recalled the divine fruit Purple Fate Ancestor had mentioned. Could that be a Heterodox Dao Fruit? Such a fruit, when consumed, could allow one to step into the Realm of Rules.

"How do Heterodox Dao Fruits appear?" Qi Yuan asked.

The phantom shook his head. "I don''t know. Perhaps... it has something to do with the Dao Lords of the fifth layer of the Yang God Realm."

The phantom glanced around, his eyes filled with desolation.

"Your world... is too special. I''ve never seen a world like this," the phantom said, his voice tinged with fear.

Qi Yuan was unfazed by this. Every world he had been to was unique. Of course, every world in existence was special in its own way.

"If... you ever get the chance to visit the Five Mountains Alliance and meet my master, please tell him not to come to save me and not to fish my true spirit out of the River of the Universe," the phantom said.

This was the reason he had preserved a wisp of his true spirit. If he were to die completely, his master, the Five Mountains Wanderer, might attempt to retrieve his true spirit from the River of the Universe to revive him. He had a premonition that something terrifying would happen if that occurred.

Now, only by attaching himself to the Celestial Palace and becoming its spirit could he barely survive.

"Alright, if I get the chance, I''ll pass on the message," Qi Yuan said. "But first, you need to help me with something."

"Please, go ahead."

"How much do you know about the Sole Hall and the Linya Transformation?"

The phantom''s eyes grew complex. "It is an unknowable entity."

Qi Yuan understood the implication. The Sole Hall was an existence at the fourth layer of the Yang God Realm.

"How much do you know about the fifth layer of the Yang God Realm?" Qi Yuan asked.

The phantom shook his head. "You''re better off seeking answers to that within the Sole Hall."

"How do I find the Sole Hall?" Qi Yuan pressed.

The phantom spoke calmly, exuding the demeanor of an expert.

"Defeat me, subdue me."

Slap!

A slap landed on the phantom''s face, sending him spinning wildly. Only when Qi Yuan''s foot pressed down on him did the phantom stop spinning.

"Now that I''ve subdued you, tell me... how do I enter the Sole Hall?" Qi Yuan asked, stepping on the phantom.

The phantom was stunned. He hadn''t expected this seemingly polite man to act so... abruptly and domineeringly. He resorted to violence at the slightest provocation!

"Only aberrant spirits or those bound by a contract can enter the Sole Hall," the phantom answered truthfully.

So, he couldn''t enter the Sole Hall?

"Then let the Sole Hall come to me!" Qi Yuan declared.
