"Bridge of Helplessness…"
Jun Xiaoyao muttered to himself.
He stepped onto the bridgehead with Xuanyue.
There was still a stone tablet there.
And on it, two lines of characters were still carved:
Other Shore Flowers bloom in seven-colored heavens; when they fall, Immortal Ascension takes a thousand years!
Seeing these words, Jun Xiaoyao's gaze suddenly sharpened.
Because this wasn't the first time he had heard this phrase.
Before, he had encountered the Ghost-Masked Woman several times.
In the Lower Realm, the Ten Realms Rift, and on the Heroic Spirit Altar, the Ghost-Masked Woman had also manifested.
And she had recited this very phrase.
Jun Xiaoyao had a deep impression of it.
He hadn't expected to see it here as well.
It was as if the Nine Heavens Immortal Domain, including the Foreign Land, and even the entire Universe, had all borne traces of that Ghost-Masked Woman.
But that Ghost-Masked Woman was extremely mysterious, as if she didn't exist in ancient history.
She herself was a mystery, an impossibility.
Jun Xiaoyao and Xuanyue stepped onto the Bridge of Helplessness.
It was different from the Yellow Springs Road.
The moment he stepped on it, Jun Xiaoyao felt a pressure.
A pressure originating from the Soul and Primordial Spirit.
"Those mists…"
Jun Xiaoyao's gaze fell upon the mists.
Those mists exerted immense pressure on the Primordial Spirit.
An ordinary Prodigy might have their Primordial Spirit crushed by the pressure after just a few steps.
However, Jun Xiaoyao possessed the Three Lifetimes Primordial Spirit, so he had nothing to worry about.
Xuanyue's face was pale; although she also felt pressure, this was just the starting point, and it wasn't unbearable yet.
"If you can't continue, you can wait for me here," Jun Xiaoyao said.
"No, I want to go with you." Xuanyue was very stubborn.
She wanted to follow in Jun Xiaoyao's footsteps.
And she also wanted to see what the Mother of the Other Shore Flower truly looked like.
And why had the Other Shore Organization chosen her?
The two advanced on the Bridge of Helplessness.
The pressure grew increasingly intense.
Every wisp of mist absorbed Soul Power, as if it could crush the Primordial Spirit.
At the same time, various illusions appeared.
Similar to the Hundred Lifetimes Reincarnation in the Reincarnation Sea.
Jun Xiaoyao was fine, but Xuanyue's face grew paler.
After all, her past experiences had been quite difficult.
From a young age, she was considered a freak, abused and despised by others.
Her only caring brother was ultimately killed by her own hands.
Given such life experiences, it was normal for even the strongest Heart Demon to emerge.
Seeing this, Jun Xiaoyao frowned slightly.
He directly activated his Three Lifetimes Primordial Spirit.
In the Void Realm, vast Soul Power surged, transforming into three great Dao Flowers.
On each Dao Flower, a Primordial Spirit sat cross-legged.
Past, Present, Future!
As soon as the Three Lifetimes Primordial Spirit emerged, vast Soul Power swept through the surroundings.
Even those strange mists were completely dispersed.
The Three Lifetimes Primordial Spirit, like three illuminating lanterns, shone brightly, dispelling the mists and darkness of this place.
Only Jun Xiaoyao possessed such means to proceed unimpeded.
Soon, the two crossed the Bridge of Helplessness.
At the end of the bridge, a massive, paint black palace stood.
Scarlet Other Shore Flowers bloomed all around, making the dark palace feel even more mysterious and eerie.
It resembled the Yellow Springs and the Other Shore, a grand hall of the Underworld King.
A river of Yellow Springs encircled the dark palace.
Many petals of the Other Shore Flower floated on the water, tragically beautiful.
Jun Xiaoyao stepped forward and pushed open the door of the dark palace.
Xuanyue followed closely behind him.
As soon as the door opened.
An extremely terrifying pressure swept over them.
This pressure was not actively emitted.
Instead, it was a natural pressure.
It was as if an unimaginably Immortal King existence resided within.
Its mere Qi was enough to force a Supreme to their knees, even causing their Physical Body to explode.
Of course, Jun Xiaoyao was no ordinary Supreme.
His figure was tall and slender, and Chaos Energy surged forth, resisting this pressure.
Xuanyue, following behind him, was unaffected.
"Even the naturally emanating pressure is so powerful…" Jun Xiaoyao mused inwardly.
As someone who had withstood a blow from a Great Emperor.
Jun Xiaoyao roughly knew what kind of pressure a Great Emperor possessed.
But the pressure before him now.
It was definitely not the kind of pressure an ordinary Great Emperor could possess.
"What Realm has the Mother of the Other Shore Flower reached?" Jun Xiaoyao secretly pondered.
Perhaps even Meng Nu'er and others from the Other Shore Emperor Clan were unaware.
The Mother of the Other Shore Flower was at least an Immortal King.
But Jun Xiaoyao felt that she should not have stopped at this step, but rather entered a deeper Realm.
Inside the palace, Other Shore Flowers still bloomed everywhere, with a small path in the middle.
Jun Xiaoyao and Xuanyue, resisting the pressure, went deeper.
Above the palace, great stars twinkled, and star trails circled, as if they had arrived in the boundless Universe.
The Mother of the Other Shore Flower's cultivation retreat was astonishing.
Finally, at the end of the path.
Jun Xiaoyao saw it.
A throne that seemed to stand eternally.
On that throne, ancient Other Shore Flower markings were carved.
A peerless figure, enveloped in a black long dress, sat upon it.
Infinitely terrifying Qi enveloped her delicate body, making it difficult to see her clearly.
She seemed like a mysterious existence, not located within this space-time.
Only peak powerhouses would exhibit such phenomena.
Powerful strength seemed to blur even Karma and existence.
Various chains of order, Dao traces, and profound runes surrounded her body.
Jun Xiaoyao frowned slightly, and Chaos Energy surged in his eyes.
The special ability of the Chaotic Body, the Eye of Chaos, was unleashed.
It could see through all illusions.
With the Eye of Chaos activated, Jun Xiaoyao could finally vaguely discern the person on the throne.
Three thousand strands of black hair, like a waterfall, cascaded down from the throne.
A pair of straight, slender, beautiful legs extended from beneath her skirt, crossed over each other.
Her bare jade feet wore no shoes or socks, her toes glistening like exquisite works of art.
Such a pair of snow-white, beautiful feet must have never touched the ground or been stained with dust.
Her perfectly proportioned, delicate body was flawlessly enveloped by the black dress.
Further up, was a swan-like, snow-white neck.
And then, his gaze fell upon her face, and Jun Xiaoyao's eyes stopped.
A ghost face mask concealed her mysterious countenance.
"You are the first to dare to look directly at this King like this."
A voice filled with majesty, yet as melodious as a heavenly melody, came from the Mother of the Other Shore Flower's mouth.
However, Jun Xiaoyao could detect.
Within that voice, there seemed to be a sense of abnormality.
"Senior must be the Mother of the Other Shore Flower. I came here merely to seek an answer."
Facing this legendary figure of the Other Shore Emperor Clan, it could be said that no one could remain calm.
Yet, Jun Xiaoyao wore a faint smile, composed and at ease, speaking in the calmest tone.
"Oh? Have I ever had Karma with you?" The Mother of the Other Shore Flower's voice remained indifferent.
Jun Xiaoyao took out a ghost face mask.
This ghost face mask was obtained by Jun Xiaoyao in the Bronze Immortal Palace.
And the Bronze Immortal Palace was also one of the contingencies left behind by the Ghost-Masked Woman.
Upon seeing that mask, which seemed neither crying nor smiling, appearing somewhat crude.
The Mother of the Other Shore Flower, seated high on her throne, her aura trembled slightly, clearly reacting.
"Other Shore Flowers bloom in seven-colored heavens; when they fall, Immortal Ascension takes a thousand years."
"What is the relationship between the owner of this ghost mask and Senior, or rather…"
"Senior is the owner of this ghost mask!"
Jun Xiaoyao's gaze directly met the Mother of the Other Shore Flower's!
