The final battle ended, the universe still existed, but most places were destined to be devastated and transformed into desolate wastelands.

With a 'whoosh', an object flew out of the Prison Hall.

A divine light swirled around it, and one could sense the abundant essence of heaven and earth within.

Legend has it that the Netherworld Immortal Treasure was created by the Netherworld Emperor through the use of powerful means to lay down 99 dragon veins and absorb the energy from ancient life-giving stars.

Meanwhile, there is also a rumor that the Underworld Emperor and the Emperor Venerable acted at the same time, and ultimately they simultaneously refined the Underworld Immortal Treasure and the Immortal Ascension Cauldron.

However, the timeline doesn't match up. While the Underworld Emperor and the Emperor were indeed teacher and friend, that time was no longer the era of the Underworld Emperor.

At the same time, during the final Emperor's grand conspiracy, it was also the Prison Suppressor who took the place of the Underworld Emperor in battle.

Therefore, the Heavenly Nether Treasure and the Immortal Ascension Cauldron could not possibly have been refined in the same era.

However, there are other aspects that we must pay attention to.

The Underworld Emperor is both a teacher and a friend of the Emperor, and it is certain that their paths will cross again after the Emperor attains enlightenment.

In other words, when the Emperor's grand conspiracy took place, the Underworld Emperor had already departed and begun another reincarnation.

"There are many big secrets hidden here!"

Qin Feng murmured to himself, "I wonder if we can discover these things this time through the Heavenly Nether Treasure."

Controlling the Heavenly Nether Treasure with one hand, Qin Feng looked at the Netherworld Palace again.

Then, he looked towards the Hall of Yama.

"The previous cause and effect can be wiped clean, but if Yama, the King of Hell, continues to act in the future, then the cause and effect will naturally be re-established."

Qin Feng said, "When the time comes, don't say that I, the Emperor, broke my promise."

The Prison King said, "Of course, what Yama King does at that time is his business. It has nothing to do with us in the Underworld."

"In future generations, I will restrain the Supreme Being of the Underworld and will not appear in the world."

Qin Feng nodded and said no more.

His gaze met that of Old Golden Crow and the others.

The universe was torn apart, and the group stepped into the depths of space.

In the blink of an eye, they returned to the Heavenly Emperor's Palace, where forbidden runes that sealed the heavens and destroyed the earth were laid down.

Next, it's time to properly explore the Heavenly Netherworld Treasure.

Chapter 95 Time Reveals the Celestial Venerable, Tribulation-Transcending Celestial Venerable Cao Yusheng

The Heavenly Treasure can also be called the Celestial Treasure.

Unlike other supreme imperial weapons, which are the weapons of other celestial beings and ancient emperors.

They are either jade ruyi, heavenly sword, imperial sword, or bells, tripods, pagodas, etc., which are the mainstream items.

The Heavenly Treasure is actually shaped like a very ancient copper coin, as if it were meant to use the power of the coin to forever suppress the calamity of corpses in the area.

Qin Feng examined the Tongtian Mingbao carefully, his brows furrowed in deep thought.

"Back then, when the Underworld Emperor forged this Heaven-Reaching Underworld Treasure, was it for his own sake, or for something else?"

Qin Feng frowned: "In the mythical era, corpses were rampant. Many Celestial Venerables of that era embarked on the path of studying corpses, as did Fellow Daoist Lingbao, but ultimately failed."

"And the Underworld Emperor, or rather that wicked fat man Duan De, must have had no shortage of righteousness in his heart. So, this Heaven-Reaching Underworld Treasure might have been forged by him to completely end the Corpse Calamity back then?"

Qin Feng made a hypothetical statement, but was unable to put it into practice.

It's really hard to fully understand the past unless you've personally experienced that period of time.

However, Qin Feng felt that this hypothesis was very likely, otherwise why would the corpse calamity that plagued the mythical era have completely disappeared in the ancient times?

To be precise, it's not exactly a complete disappearance, but rather something that's already under control and won't endanger the entire universe.

Qin Feng did not deny that Duan De back then was indeed capable of doing such a thing.

After all, strictly speaking, Duan De back then was more accurately the Underworld Emperor, the second incarnation of the Tribulation-Crossing Celestial Venerable.

Cao Yusheng, the Heavenly Venerable of Tribulation Crossing, is a genuine person from the Chaotic Ancient Era who has come into contact with the truly authentic methods of burial.

In order to keep reincarnating and to keep living, some of the funeral practices were changed.

Therefore, in principle, Qin Feng did not believe that the other party would do anything that would harm the universe.

Based on this logical comparison, the Tongtian Mingbao (Heavenly Netherworld Treasure) most likely exists to completely eliminate the corpse calamity.

Of course, these are just speculations.

Qin Feng still needs to verify this.

With a touch of his finger, Tongtian Mingbao trembled slightly.

Perhaps it was a bit strange, but Qin Feng didn't sense the presence of any 'spirit' within the Heavenly Nether Treasure.

The Immortal Ascension Cauldron possessed a spirit, which eventually tried to break free from it during Ye Fan's era.

The desolate tower also has a spirit that can do many things, acting according to its own will. For example, it can help suppress Ye Fan, allowing Ye Fan to pursue women and give birth to an innate holy body.

For example, the Myriad Things Mother Qi Cauldron also has a spirit, which became the glorious scapegoat in Ye Fan's pursuit of women.

The Heavenly Treasure also falls into the category of celestial artifacts.

However, Qin Feng was certain that there was no 'spirit' in it.

Generally speaking, objects at this level possess their own spirit; the absence of a spirit is the most terrifying thing.

There is only one possibility that can make this possible.

The alchemist did not want the spirit to exist.

For example, when the Empress crafted the Devouring Demon Jar, she never allowed it to have a spirit, perhaps because she was worried that the Devouring Demon Jar might change during her exploration of immortality.

Qin Feng couldn't be sure; he had originally wanted to use the Heavenly Netherworld Treasure to find out what happened back then.

The original idea was that the Tongtian Mingbao should have its own spirit, which would be the witness to everything.

However, now, all plans have fallen through.

"Failed?" Old Golden Crow asked.

Seeing that Qin Feng had been exploring the Heavenly Nether Treasure for a long time but had not made any further moves, he had some vague guesses.

Emperor Xuanwu, Emperor Qilin, and Emperor Wanlong all remained silent, awaiting Qin Feng's reply.

When it comes to the realm of immortal artifacts, they also want to participate, but it is clear that their understanding of this path is not as profound as Qin Feng's.

"It wasn't a failure, but you could also say it was."

Qin Feng calmly said, "I thought the Tongtian Mingbao had a spirit, but I didn't sense its existence. So my plan to learn more secrets through the Tongtian Mingbao has failed."

"But there is another way, perhaps we can trace back and witness it."

Tracing back?

Old Golden Crow's expression suddenly froze.

I had seen Qin Feng do this before.

Using forbidden methods, they ultimately rewind time, bear the backlash themselves, and then observe everything that happened in the past.

The Heavenly Treasure is here now.

After all, it is an inanimate object, so we need to trace what happened to it.

The price to be paid is enormous, and even the greatest emperor of the time might not be able to withstand the karmic backlash.

It is clear that Qin Feng has already decided to use the Tongtian Mingbao (a magical artifact) to trace back to the past.

"This Heavenly Treasure was even made by the Underworld Emperor himself."

The old Golden Crow continued, "The Underworld Emperor's methods are extraordinary, reaching the heavens and creating the universe. It is said that he created the Underworld, and he used the Heavenly Underworld Treasure to trace the past. Perhaps..."

Old Golden Crow didn't continue speaking.

Qin Feng smiled and said, "Some things can't be left undone just because the cost is known to be huge. Someone has to walk this path eventually."

"As I mentioned to you before about the future timeline, the Great Emperor named Void, after attaining enlightenment, went on to conquer various forbidden zones."

"In the end, he could only rely on the elixir of immortality to heal his Dao injury in advance, and thus only possessed the destiny of an emperor for one lifetime."

Everyone fell silent.

Although I never saw the future emperor known as the Void.

However, such deeds deserve the respect of all of them.

Having become an emperor, how could he not know that conquering forbidden zones would lead him into this dilemma?

But in the end, that Void Emperor still did it, even if he only lived one lifetime, he still wanted to uphold his responsibility.

Qin Feng, at present, clearly intends to continue down this path.

"Alright, that's all for now."

Qin Feng chuckled and said, "Next, we should explore this Heavenly Nether Treasure and find out what it went through in the past."

As he spoke, Qin Feng struck the void surrounding the Tongtian Mingbao with his palm.

The sound of rolling waves rose up, and it was as if the river of time had appeared, making them all seem to be in the past, no longer existing in this world.

This is not the true river of time.

Qin Feng's current strength is not yet at the level to be reflected in the river of time.

Unless one reaches the level of a Celestial King, it is simply impossible. And to truly accomplish anything in the long river of time, one must reach the level of a Celestial Emperor.

Of course, reaching the level of Immortal Emperor doesn't mean you can do whatever you want.

For example, Emperor Bone wanted to erase Ara in the past, but ultimately suffered the power of great karma.

Just like the Red King, who eventually became food on a plate, so it was the same.

Qin Feng is currently only at the peak of the human realm, not even an immortal yet, so he cannot possibly bear such consequences.

Just like back then, scenes began to emerge around the Tongtian Mingbao.

Qin Feng saw the past; time was flying by, and he returned to the ancient era. Most of the time, the Tongtian Mingbao was in a boundless underworld.
