Mu Yuqing’s attitude made Xu Nian somewhat puzzled.

Why has Mu Yuqing suddenly become so friendly to him?

When things are amiss, there’s something suspicious, which made Xu Nian even more vigilant towards Mu Yuqing.

"Since these two words were personally carved by the Netherworld Lord, why is this stele here? Is it possible that the Netherworld Lord is here?" Xu Nian asked curiously.

"No, she is not here. These words were carved by the Netherworld Lord when she was young. As for why this Hell Stele is here, that remains unknown." Mu Yuqing replied.

Xu Nian showed a hint of disappointment.

He thought he might find some news about the Netherworld Lord here.

But unexpectedly, he was ultimately left disappointed.

"You seem to be very interested in the Netherworld Lord." Mu Yuqing glanced at Xu Nian’s expression and asked curiously.

"Yes, I am indeed quite eager to know about the Netherworld Lord." Xu Nian nodded and said.

"I see, but the Netherworld Lord has a noble status, she has long been indifferent to worldly matters, standing above the nine heavens, wanting to understand her affairs is unlikely to be an easy task." Mu Yuqing said.

Xu Nian nodded.

He looked at the Hell Stele, his gaze filled with sharpness.

"What is so special about this Hell Stele, other than being carved by the Netherworld Lord herself?" Xu Nian asked.

"Humph, you don’t even know what’s special about the Hell Stele, you truly are a country bumpkin." The young man following Mu Yuqing immediately sneered and mocked.

Mu Yuqing, on the other hand, glanced at Xu Nian in surprise and responded lightly, "Do you know that the Netherworld is also called Hell?"

Xu Nian nodded.

The Netherworld is Hell, which is a consensus of the Three Realms.

"But do you know that the Netherworld is not actually the true Hell? To be precise, it is only a part of Hell." Mu Yuqing opened the conversation.

"A part of Hell?" Xu Nian showed a surprised expression.

This was news he heard for the first time.

The young man beside him saw Xu Nian’s surprised expression and immediately sneered with irony.

"It seems you didn’t know this news, actually, this is something most people of the Netherworld know, Hell is incomplete, it is only one-third of the complete Hell, and this one-third is now the Netherworld, which is why the Netherworld’s powerhouses can only cultivate to the Daluo God Realm." Mu Yuqing said.

"You’re saying that the Netherworld is only one-third of the complete Hell, thus causing the world’s laws to be incomplete, preventing progression beyond the Daluo God Realm?" Xu Nian asked in astonishment.

"That’s right, that’s the reason. It’s a secret well-known in the Netherworld. If it were a complete Hell, when the people of the Netherworld reach the God King Realm, they could form a true physical body, indistinguishable from a true Divine." Mu Yuqing said.

"Uh, then why did Hell only leave one-third back then?" Xu Nian asked in surprise.

"That is unknown, it is Hell’s secret, probably only the Netherworld Lord knows this secret. Reuniting Hell is also the biggest wish of the Netherworld Lord." Mu Yuqing said.

Xu Nian instantly understood.

No wonder the Netherworld Lord wants to borrow Leng Yanran’s physical body to break through the God King Realm.

Her goal is to reach the God King Realm and then rebuild Hell.

Only he did not expect that the Netherworld also contained such a huge secret.

Who exactly shattered the entire Hell?

What sort of power could possess such energy?

"Master Ye Tian, do you know about this matter?" Xu Nian asked curiously.

"I know a little, but not much, vaguely aware that it was a setup by an unparalleled mighty figure, but I advise you not to pursue this matter excessively. The secret hidden behind it is beyond your imagination, even in my peak days, I might not have qualifications to be involved in such matters." Emperor Ye Tian warned.

Xu Nian was shocked.

Even Emperor Ye Tian, at his peak, could not qualify to be involved.

Doesn’t that mean the one who shattered Hell is a Supreme-level master?

It’s terrifying!

Xu Nian could hardly imagine it, able to smash an existence comparable to the Divine World, how terrifying must it be.

What kind of shocking strategy requires such a setup?

"Then what is the purpose of this stele?" Xu Nian shifted the topic to the stele.

"The Hell Stele contains the Netherworld Lord’s realm of insight. If one can comprehend it, the benefits would be immeasurable. Of course, so far, no one has been able to comprehend the Tao carved on the stele by the Netherworld Lord, and later this stele just disappeared." Mu Yuqing responded.

Insight?

Xu Nian instantly understood.

It turns out this stele is an item of inheritance from the Netherworld Lord.

The so-called insight is a mysterious thing, such insight is even more elusive than rules.

Such insight must be realized in specific environments, under specific emotions.

It must align with the heart realm of the person who carved these words, achieving a resonance of mind.

Forming a fit with the Netherworld Lord is indeed harder than climbing to heaven.

It’s no wonder that for all these years no one has been able to grasp the insight on the stele.

"Do you have any insights?" Xu Nian looked at Mu Yuqing and asked.

Mu Yuqing shook her head.

She has been here for so long, without any gains.

Moreover, her companion died on the spot due to forcibly comprehending the insight on this stele!

"Why don’t you try, maybe you’ll have some gains," Mu Yuqing looked at Xu Nian and said.

"Junior Sister Yuqing, this is the Hell Stele, how could he possibly gain anything, don’t lose your life in vain." The young man scoffed and mocked.

Xu Nian ignored the young man’s words and looked at the stele.

"Place your hand on the stele; you can more clearly sense the insight of the stele." Mu Yuqing said.

Xu Nian nodded, walked towards the stele.

Slowly stretched out a hand and gently pressed onto the stele.

And when Xu Nian’s hand touched the stele at that instant.

"Boom!"

A terrifying force suddenly exploded deep in his soul.

The next moment, Xu Nian found himself in an endless mountain of corpses and sea of blood.

Corpses everywhere, stretching millions of miles.

On top of these mountains of corpses and sea of blood, there stands a woman holding a Divine Sword arrogantly.

Her whole body emitting an endless domineering aura and terrifying murderous intent.

This murderous intent is almost tangible, flowing like an endless river.

Just a glance from those icy eyes made Xu Nian’s whole body shiver.

Her appearance, no matter how hard Xu Nian tries, he cannot see clearly.

Xu Nian standing in this mountain of corpses and sea of blood, looking at the figure of the woman, feels his whole body trembling.

His mind utterly unable to calm.

Under the influence of such terrifying murderous intent, don’t mention comprehending any insights.

If he can stabilize his mind and not be affected by this murderous intent, it would already be a great fortune.
