As he sighed, Yuan Ming's hands were still in motion, casting a spell.

In the dispersing radiance, two Dao Seals intertwined and spun downward, heading toward Wang Fulong.

Wang Fulong sensed danger and immediately waved his sleeve to strike.

With his movement, the giant Dharma manifestation also swept its robe, raising gusts of air to collide with the two Dao Seals.

Just as his arm extended halfway, the void behind him suddenly cracked open, and four or five black roots as thick as arms emerged, directly binding his arm, then coiling around his body.

"Space Divine Power..." Wang Fulong thought in shock, immediately operating an Attack Divine Ability.

Golden light burst around him, emitting invisible sharpness that sliced the black roots.

However, just as the Undying Tree Roots were being cut by the sharpness, Wang Fulong's eyes lost focus suddenly, losing their luster.

The All Living Beings Dream Seal and Dream Butterfly Dao Seal, carried by a root of the Undying Tree, pierced through the void and entered his body.

The Illusion Space unfolded. Although Wang Fulong's Divine Soul Power wasn't weak, compared to Yuan Ming, it was far inferior, and he instantly fell into the illusion with no resistance.

The other Returning to Void Stage Cultivators of the Sunset Sect wanted to help, but Yuan Ming flashed forward, clenched his five fingers, and punched out.

After advancing to the Undying Body, his control over power reached a new level, the concentrated punch wind was like a sharp Sword Qi, carving a deep, seamless trench in the ground in front of the few cultivators.

"If you don't want to die, stay put!" Yuan Ming shouted.

With his shout, he surged Qi Blood Power and operated Dan Tian Power; his voice was like a great bell, carrying penetrating power and assisted by Divine Soul intimidation. Instantly, the people of the Sunset Sect froze in place in terror.

When they regained their senses, they felt as if their innards were torn apart, not daring to assist or flee, rooted to the spot.

Yuan Ming turned to Wang Fulong, covering his face with a palm, delving into his Sea of Consciousness with Divine Soul Power, employing the Soul Searching Divine Ability.

However, as his Divine Thought entered Wang Fulong's Sea of Consciousness, a golden light suddenly shone from within, forcibly expelling his Divine Thought.

"Divine Soul Forbidden..." Yuan Ming frowned slightly and continued casting.

Yet, this golden light prohibition was extraordinarily domineering, making Yuan Ming's Soul Search unable to delve deeper. Forcing through would make Wang Fulong's Divine Soul in his Sea of Consciousness suffer a backlash, scattering his soul into oblivion, resulting in nothing.

Reluctantly, Yuan Ming halted, first restraining Wang Fulong's Mana, then dispelled the illusion to awaken him.

As his eyes opened, Wang Fulong immediately understood the situation, his heart sinking to rock bottom.

"I hadn't anticipated that Fellow Daoist Wan was cultivating body, mana, and soul; I am no match for you." He sighed, sitting on the ground without regard for his image, completely relinquishing his resistance.

"Since that's the case, do you still intend to resist? Although your Divine Soul is set with a prohibition, preventing me from forcibly soul searching, you know as well, Soul Cultivators have ways to make you wish you were dead." Yuan Ming spoke indifferently.

Wang Fulong's body shuddered, yet remained silent.

"Since Fellow Daoist Wang wants to test my methods, I shall oblige!" Yuan Ming coldly snickered, without apparent action, the surrounding temperature swiftly turned bone-chillingly cold.

"No, I'll speak!" Wang Fulong suddenly lifted his head.

"Oh, why surrender so quickly?" Yuan Ming was rather surprised, waving to disperse the surrounding coldness.

"Falling into Fellow Daoist Wan's hands, if I don't cooperate, the outcome is surely soul scattering, and I don't want to die yet." Wang Fulong lowered his head.

He only had a relationship of mutual benefit with the person behind him, and with his life hanging by a thread, he couldn't care for that anymore.

Although telling Yuan Ming everything would later bring great danger to himself, that was a worry for another time.

"Fellow Daoist Wang is reasonable. Speak." Yuan Ming smiled and sat opposite Wang Fulong.

"The person who wants to assassinate Fellow Daoist Wan is the Young Master of Taixuan Sect, Young Master Que Yue." Wang Fulong didn't hesitate and said immediately.

Young Master Que Yue?

Yuan Ming pondered for a while and found he didn't recognize the person.

Suddenly, he remembered something Sima Changqin once told him, that after the death of the Four Mountains Wanderer, the Four Mountains Linked Seal fell into the hands of the Taixuan Sect.

"Is this Young Master Que Yue mentally impaired? I have no dealings with the Taixuan Sect, why would he want to kill me?" Yuan Ming asked with a frown.

"Because of that Fellow Daoist Xi Ying." Wang Fulong explained.

"Xi Ying?" Yuan Ming was taken aback, then fell into deep thought.

"Daoist Xi Ying's actions in White Emperor City a few days ago practically told everyone that her intended person is you, Fellow Daoist Wan. Young Master Que Yue sent us to assassinate you because of this," Wang Fulong said.

"Just because of this? Is Young Master Que Yue also a suitor of Xi Ying?" Yuan Ming asked, his eyes flickering at the words.

"Yes, it's not just Sima Changqin and Young Master Que Yue, but also other Young Masters from several major forces," Wang Fulong said.

"Xi Ying is indeed extraordinary, but is she really that sought after?" Yuan Ming was puzzled.

"It seems, Fellow Daoist Wan, that you are not aware of the special trait of Daoist Xi Ying," Wang Fulong looked at Yuan Ming with a surprising gaze.

"What do you mean?" Yuan Ming inquired upon hearing this.

"It's a long story. Daoist Xi Ying's matter must begin with Elder Xue Shan. Fellow Daoist Wan, you must have heard of the name of Taixuan Sect's Supreme Elder, Elder Xue Shan, right?" Wang Fulong sat up straight and asked.

Yuan Ming shook his head. He knew very little about the Taixuan Sect, let alone knowing a Supreme Elder.

"Elder Xue Shan is not an ordinary Supreme Elder of the Taixuan Sect. He is a prophet who played a significant role in the last realm boundary war, successfully predicting the Demon Clan's movements, making a vital contribution to repelling them. He is hailed as the first prophet of the Chuyun Realm," Wang Fulong paused for a moment before explaining.

"I see, did Elder Xue Shan make some prophecy regarding Xi Ying that caused so many people to flock to her?" Yuan Ming nodded and asked.

"Correct, not long ago, Elder Xue Shan was invited to visit the Sky Eagle Chamber of Commerce and unexpectedly encountered Daoist Xi Ying. He assessed her fate, calculated that Daoist Xi Ying's fate is extremely noble, reflected in the Tianshu Star, marking her as the Heavenly Destiny's Daughter. Whoever joins with her can inherit the heavenly destiny, becoming this generation's Heavenly Destiny Son," Wang Fulong said.

"Heavenly Destiny's Daughter, Heavenly Destiny Son..." Yuan Ming stroked his chin, letting out a soft laugh.

"After this news spread, many young talents wanted to meet Xi Ying, with Sima Changqin and Young Master Que Yue being the most enthusiastic. It's just that Young Master Que Yue has been busy with important matters recently and didn't come to White Emperor City. He contacted me, asked me to monitor Xi Ying's every move, and after learning about her behavior in White Emperor City, he instructed me to find a way to eliminate you during the Heavenly Fire search operation. That's when I contacted the Black River Four Foes," Wang Fulong confessed everything honestly.

Yuan Ming briefly considered and compared various details after entering the Fire Rock Desert, finding no unreasonable points, indicating that Wang Fulong was not lying.

"Finally, I know who really wants to kill me, Young Master Que Yue..." He snorted coldly in his heart, but showed no expression on his face.

After a moment of silence, Yuan Ming swept his gaze around before continuing to ask, "By the way, why did you and the people of Heavenly Dragon Hall come to this Silver Mountain Range? This is where the silver light pillar phenomenon appeared previously, right?"

"Correct." Wang Fulong nodded, answering every question.

"I didn't see you from the Sunset Sect or the three from Heavenly Dragon Hall at Xihe Palace. How did you all arrive here?" Yuan Ming continued to ask.

"I came here following the Boarding Order. You should know about it, right? It's the silver token you took previously," Wang Fulong said.

"I know about the Boarding Order and the Three Realms Immortal Boat, but you said you followed the Boarding Order here, what do you mean?" Yuan Ming asked impatiently.

"A few days ago, after entering this space..." Wang Fulong, seeing Yuan Ming's displeased expression, hurriedly recounted his experiences from the past few days.

Shortly after entering the space, Wang Fulong unexpectedly discovered information about the Three Realms Immortal Boat and the location of a Boarding Order. After weighing his options, he abandoned the search for Heavenly Fire to pursue the Boarding Order.

Following a trace, Wang Fulong led his people to locate the Boarding Order. Just as he was about to seize it, the phenomenon of the silver light pillar appeared, and the Boarding Order seemed to be drawn towards it, flying towards the silver light pillar.

Wang Fulong had mastered a secret tracking technique, so he led his people to follow the Boarding Order, eventually reaching this Silver Mountain Range.

When Yuan Ming heard this, a slight change flickered across his face.

If the Boarding Order in his hand was drawn here by the silver light column, does it mean that other Boarding Orders were also drawn to this place?

"After arriving here, we searched thoroughly and discovered the Boarding Order trapped in a spatial rift. Just as we were planning how to retrieve it, the people of Heavenly Dragon Hall arrived, and a conflict ensued. After that, you arrived," Wang Fulong concluded.

Yuan Ming nodded in satisfaction at his response.

"Fellow Daoist Wan, I have told you everything I know. How do you plan to handle me? Can you let us go?" Wang Fulong looked at Yuan Ming, hesitated for a moment, and then asked.

"Whether or not you were instigated by someone, you have a part in the Black River Four Foes' attempt to assassinate me. How could you leave without paying the price?" Yuan Ming sneered and said.

"You... what do you intend to do?" Wang Fulong's heart sank, asking bravely.

"I haven't decided how to deal with you yet. For now, you'll have to trouble yourselves to stay in my domain for a while," Yuan Ming said.

As he finished speaking, the Dream Butterfly Dao Seal shone brightly on Wang Fulong's forehead, releasing powerful waves of Soul Power.

Wang Fulong fell back into the illusion, and the members of the Sunset Sect nearby were enveloped by the Dream Butterfly Illusion Technique.

Despite being at the Returning to Void Cultivation, they were unable to resist Yuan Ming's Illusion Technique and quickly fell into a dream, sprawled haphazardly all around.
