"Dark Lord—Who are you!"

Huayang Immortal Venerable lowered his eyes, his expression grave, deep in thought.

It was at that moment.

Suddenly, a streak of light shot towards us.

The fleeting light fades away.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Then, several people appeared.

If there were other powerhouses here, they would find that all the arriving cultivators were immortal gods from the Netherworld Camp.

You've arrived.

Hua Yang Xian Zun's expression was calm, as if he had expected this a long time ago.

Huangfu Pojun smiled bitterly: "The movement in the forbidden zone of ancient Shenzhou's life has increased, and the surging dark power is now spilling out of ancient Shenzhou, with a vast intention to engulf the entire Netherworld."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

In such a situation, how could we possibly not come

"Huayang, Daoist friend, can you make clear what the situation is with the Life Prohibition Zone now"

The Star God asked a question.

Huayang Xianzun shook his head slightly, his expression solemn: "There has been movement in the Life Forbidden Zone. This deity originally wanted to investigate the power of the Life Forbidden Zone, but it triggered the dark forces there. That place is not simple. Originally, we all speculated that the Dark Lord might be a certain god or an immortal, but now it seems that although there are many immortals among the Underworld Gods, there is probably no one who can compare with the Dark Lord."

“Things are getting complicated!”

The Snow Mountain Immortal of the Xue Shan Sect let out a slight sigh, looking in the direction of the Forbidden Zone of Life. His expression, like that of the Hua Yang Immortal, had become much more serious.

Darkness erupts.

For the underworld camp, it's not a good thing.

After all, if this situation is allowed to worsen, the Nether Camp will only face greater difficulties.

Now.

The Sword Sovereign, who had always been silent, now spoke: "According to my understanding, the dark power originated from the forbidden zones of life in ancient Shenzhou. In the Nine States of Netherworld and Eight Desolations, there are also many forbidden zones of life."

Could these life zones also harbor lurking dark forces

"The Jianzun's conjecture, we have also thought about it, but the Life Forbidden Zone is different from ordinary places. It is full of strangeness and ominousness. Even if our immortal gods enter it, there is a possibility of falling."

Therefore, although the Nine Regions and Eight Desolations have many forbidden areas of life, we haven't explored all of them.

Speaking of this.

Huayang Xianzun paused for a moment, then continued.

>But—

“In the past, I have ventured into several forbidden zones of life. Though dangerous and filled with eerie omens and curses, I found no trace of any dark forces.”

Therefore, if this deity has not miscalculated, the Life Forbidden Zone of Ancient Shenzhou should be different from other places.

On hearing this.

The other strong ones all fell silent.

>

After a long time.

The Holy Spirit sighed, "If we hadn't entered the Forbidden Zone of Life back then, perhaps there wouldn't be so much trouble."

"What does the Holy Spirit mean by this"

The Sword Venerable's expression flickered.

The Upper Realm Divine Venerable and the Devil Venerable also looked at each other, seeming quite interested in this news. Noticing everyone's gaze, the Holy Spirit Divine Venerable also smiled wryly: "There is nothing to hide about this matter. Back then when the life forbidden zone of the ancient divine state had an anomaly, we all worked together to deduce, and came to a conclusion that there was an opportunity in the life forbidden zone that could allow us to advance further."

Therefore, we, including the Four Great Heavenly Courts and the Reincarnation Temple, all immortal deities united to enter the Forbidden Zone of Life, hoping to jointly seek out the so-called opportunity.

"Unexpectedly, at the end of that forbidden zone of life, a strange and terrifying existence was discovered!"

"A ghastly, terrifying presence"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

The Swordmaster's brow furrowed.

The Holy Spirit Divine said: "You don't need to ask me what that thing is. Even I am not very clear about it. That kind of existence is particularly strange and terrifying. We barely managed to kill it after fighting it."

But that battle also seemed to have opened the true restrictions within the life forbidden zone. From then on, dark forces began to escape from the life forbidden zone, and so-called dark forbidden masters appeared as well.

As soon as the words of the Holy Spirit descended, Huangfu Pojun spoke first. “Because things are too coincidental, we all suspect that whether the Life Forbidden Zone of the Ancient Divine State is orchestrated by other powerful beings behind the scenes, intentionally luring us in and then using our strength to break the restrictions of the Life Forbidden Zone...And the existence scheming behind the scenes is the Dark Forbidden Lord.”

It's a pity that, up to this point, we haven't been able to truly find out who the Dark Sovereign is. Perhaps the Dark Sovereign has never been one of our immortal gods, but rather a strange being from the forbidden zone of life.

Silence.

Jian Zun and the others all fell silent.

It was only from the mouths of these Netherworld Lords that they truly came to understand some of the truths about the Dark Forbidden Lord.

What is called the dark force originates from ancient Shenzhou. After spending many years in the underworld, Sword Venerable and others also secretly inquired about the news of the Dark Forbidden Lord, but they never got much useful information. Now, what a few Divine Venerables said has dispelled the mist in their hearts, and many things have become clear. The Demon Venerable looked solemn and said solemnly: "Now that the dark power is surging, it has already broken through the barriers of ancient Shenzhou and spread to other places in the underworld. It is inevitable that more cultivators will fall into darkness and become puppets of the Dark Forbidden Lord. If the Four Great Empires and the Reincarnation Temple take this opportunity to launch a large-scale attack, it would be detrimental to us."

"The Demon Lord is right."

Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

The Hua Yang Immortal Lord nodded slightly.

But to be clear, the Underworld camp doesn't have many options right now.

Huangfu Pojun said, "No matter how powerful the Dark Camp is, now we can only do our best to resist. We cannot let the Netherworld fall into the hands of the Dark Forbidden Master. If it really comes to that, then we can only retreat to the myriad heavens!"

Finally, Huangfu Pojun sighed, and the faces of strong men like Huayang Xianzun were not good-looking either.

Retreat to the heavens.

That was the last resort.

Moreover.

If it truly came down to retreating to the heavens, it wouldn't necessarily be truly safe.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Sword Sovereign's eyes were solemn as he looked towards the direction of the Forbidden Zone of Life.

"All problems must be addressed at their source. We must ascertain what lies within the depths of the life sanctuary, for it is that which allows the dark forces to escape."

This is a placeholder.

"If we don't address the root cause, even if our strength were ten times greater, it would be impossible to truly stop the Dark Lord's advance!" "That's right. We must definitely figure out what's going on with the life forbidden zone in Ancient Shenzhou. Not just Ancient Shenzhou, but also other places' life forbidden zones. It's best to investigate them and see if there are any problems, or perhaps some solutions."

The Demon Lord also nodded in agreement.

One-sided defense is not a good strategy.

That's all.

This is the end of a paragraph.

The Demon Lord, of course, understands this deeply.

In the beginning, when the Taixu realm faced the Heavenly Demon forces, the Divine Palace primarily adopted a defensive strategy.

>

But what was the result

What can be changed by defending against celestial demons for several ancient eons

Here we are now.

The Imperial Palace was destroyed.

Many strong individuals have fallen in the Tai Xu realm.

As the saying goes, "Every setback is a lesson learned." The lessons from the Netherworld made the Demon Lord deeply realize that relying solely on defense wouldn't solve problems. Only by taking the initiative and eliminating the root of the problem could one achieve a lasting solution.

If, from the very beginning, the Imperial Shrine had faced the Heavenly Demons not with a defensive stance but with an offensive strike, perhaps the problem of the Heavenly Demons would have already been eradicated, and they wouldn't be in such a dire situation now.

This should be the correct answer:

Let me know if you have any other text that needs translating!

Although later, stronger individuals proposed solutions to address the issue of Heavenly Demons from the root, it was already too late by then.

Always at war.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Many powerful individuals from the Divine Temple have fallen, their strength greatly diminished. There is no longer any hope of eradicating the Heavenly Demons.

Faced with the problem of the Dark Forbidden Master, the Demon Lord naturally didn't want to repeat past mistakes.

The words of the two people caused all the great deities to have expressions that shifted and changed, they were unsure what they were hesitating about.

>

...for a while.

The Immortal Hua Yang nodded slightly: "This might be the solution for now, but the Forbidden Zone of Ancient Shenzhou is extraordinary. If ordinary Divine Lords enter it, they will find it difficult to come out alive."

At first, we all worked together to escape the Forbidden Zone of Life from the ancient Shenzhou.

Though the Forbidden Zones of the Underworld are dangerous, they are still better than what's found in Ancient Shenzhou.

"If we truly want to explore the forbidden zones of life, this deity suggests that we gradually investigate other forbidden zones first. Then, when we have reached our final destination, we shall join forces and enter the ancient god state's forbidden zone together. We can then see if there are any solutions."

"So be it."

Sword Sovereign and the others exchanged glances, all nodding in agreement.

Huangpu Pojun and other powerful figures also had no objections.

Then.

The figures of all parties' strong players dissipated, as if they had never appeared at all.

Hua Yang Xianzun cast his gaze once more upon the Life Forbidden Zone of the Ancient Divine State. The things within unsettled him deeply; if possible, he wouldn't want to set foot in the Life Forbidden Zone again.

The events of that year are still fresh in his immortal memory.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

It's a pity――

As the Sword Master and Demon Lord said, only by addressing the root of the problem can we truly achieve a lasting solution. Otherwise, if we continue to delay, the Underworld forces will only gradually crumble, leaving them incapable of resisting the Dark Camp.

At this point, it may seem like the Underworld camp has multiple options, but from beginning to end, there is only one path to take.

Thought fell.

Hua Yang Xianzun retracted his gaze, his eyes returning to their usual indifference.

“Then let this deity take a look and see what secrets these life forbidden zones hold. Back then, the ancient Shenzhou Life Forbidden Zone allowed me to deduce opportunities for further progress. Perhaps other life forbidden zones also hold such opportunities.”

"Matters have come to this point, for the sake of Huayang's ancestral home's succession, this deity also has no other choice!"

Then.

Huayang Immortal Venerable closed his eyes, merging with heaven and earth, continuing to comprehend the Heavenly Dao. At the same time, his divine sense monitored the entire Huayang ancestral home, blocking the invasion of dark forces.

As for any cultivators who were corrupted by dark forces, turned into killing puppets, or became dark believers, the Heavenly Immortal Hua Yang would directly take action to eliminate them, ensuring that no trace of darkness infiltrated the Hua Yang ancestral temple.

>

However.

The ancestral home of Huayang, being protected by the Immortal Huayang, is naturally free from many problems.

Here is your translation.

But other forces without the protection of immortal deities fared far worse in the face of the encroaching darkness. The chaos in Gu Shenzhou was merely a reflection of what was happening in the Netherworld. As the darkness spread, the situation in other regions grew increasingly tense.
