As soon as Zhan Zhi finished speaking, a dark beam of light shot out from the Divine Beast Bag at his waist, transforming into a soul-searching divine beast approximately ten feet tall and entirely black.
The soul-searching divine beast resembled a pig to some extent and possessed the divine ability to search souls of various divine races!
“Roar!”
The soul-searching divine beast let out a deep roar, looking down at Tan Yun, and spoke, “Look into this divine beast's eyes.”
“Yes, yes, yes.” Tan Yun continued to pretend to be in a daze, gazing into the beast's enormous eyes. In reality, he was overjoyed!
Having the Primordial Divine Eye, he feared no other eye techniques; no one and no beast could control him!
Then, as the soul-searching divine beast's gigantic eyes turned deep and black, Tan Yun's expression became dazed.
“Senior Soul-Searching Divine Beast, you can ask him,” Zhan Zhi said.
“Hmm.” The soul-searching divine beast asked, “Over four hundred years ago, did you visit the Gods' Abyss? You were the one who killed Zhan Zutian and Zhan Zuyun, right?”
Tan Yun appeared wooden, “I have never been to the Gods' Abyss, and I did not kill them.”
Upon hearing this, a sense of desolation filled Zhan Zhi's eyes.
The soul-searching divine beast turned to Zhan Zhi and shook its head, “He is not the killer; he merely resembles the killer in voice and eyes.”
“Hmm, thank you for your effort.” Zhan Zhi replied.
Subsequently, the soul-searching divine beast released its control over Tan Yun, transforming into a beam of light and entering the Divine Beast Bag at Zhan Zhi's waist.
Niu Dingtian patted Zhan Zhi's shoulder and consoled him, “Don’t lose heart, Brother Zhan. The heavenly net is vast and wide, and it will eventually catch the real culprit.”
“Hmm.” Zhan Zhi nodded. In a moment of thought, a thousand pieces of Supreme Divine Jade flew out from the Divine Ring and floated in front of Tan Yun. With an apologetic expression, he said, “I apologize for earlier; please accept this as compensation.”
“Thank you, Senior Zhan.” Tan Yun looked at the Divine Jade, his eyes shining with delight, as if he had forgotten his pain, and promptly stored the Divine Jade in his Immortal Ring.
In truth, Tan Yun's heart seethed with malice, “Zhan Zhi, today you use a sword against me; one day, I will repay you a thousandfold!”
At this moment, Niu Dingtian looked at the divine soldier leading Tan Yun and the others and instructed, “You take them away.”
“Understood.”
Then, that divine soldier summoned a Divine Vessel, carrying Tan Yun and the others, flying toward the center of the Primordial Chaos Divine City...
Along the way, Tan Yun and the others felt a significant sense of relief, glad to have escaped unscathed!
Tan Yun faced the divine soldier and clasped his fists, asking, “May I ask where we are going?”
The divine soldier replied, “First, we are heading to the Hall of Time and Space, and then we will send you to the outer battlefield, to the camp of Divine King Bai Cheng.”
...
Two hours later, the divine soldier maneuvered the Divine Vessel and landed outside the Hall of Time and Space.
Subsequently, Tan Yun and the others followed the divine soldier into the grand Hall of Time and Space.
Inside, the Hall of Time and Space had a space of roughly a hundred miles, with several teleportation arrays set up inside.
Looking at these teleportation arrays, Tan Yun felt an uneasy familiarity. These arrays had all been arranged by him back in the days when he was the primeval supreme.
The largest one was the teleportation array leading to the outer realms.
The others led to the Primordial Divine Realm and important cities within it.
The divine soldier pointed to the largest teleportation array and said, “Follow me.”
The divine soldier led Tan Yun and the others onto the teleportation array and explained, “In Primordial Chaos Divine City, this is the only teleportation array that leads to the outer realm.”
