"I am not convinced by your words, Fellow Taoist."

Yu Wen'en suddenly became angry, raising his head to look directly at Xiao Mu, annoyed, he said: "Do you really think I didn't resist?"

"Hiding here and resisting?" Xiao Mu said disdainfully, glancing behind Yu Wen'en at the divine spirit.

In front of the divine spirit, the incense fire was wafting slowly; many mortal Yin Souls were offering incense. The aura of incense fire twisted out of the incense burner, part of it entering Yu Wen'en's body, preventing Xiao Mu from seeing him clearly.

"Alas!"

Yu Wen'en suddenly sighed, looking dejected, "Fellow Taoist, you have misunderstood me deeply. Do you think I have been hiding from the beginning? It was only because... Fellow Taoist, please look."

As he spoke, a large amount of incense fire surged from Yu Wen'en's body, reducing the obstruction to the sight, and he appeared more clearly before Xiao Mu.

"..."

Xiao Mu looked at Yu Wen'en, whose body was surrounded by hundreds of White Mirrors, all condensed by the power of Five Elements True Gold, encasing him completely with all mirrors facing towards his body.

Yu Wen'en had mastered some secret arts, cultivating red eyes all over his body. These eyes were all open wide, seeming never to blink, each eye fixated on a mirror.

Beneath Yu Wen'en's feet was a profoundly deep and dark Black Hole, impossible to see how deep or what was beneath.

The Black Hole opened, constantly expanding and swallowing, like a cruel, bloodthirsty fierce beast opening its mouth under Yu Wen'en's feet waiting for him to fall.

However, hundreds of eyes on Yu Wen'en's body stared at the mirrors, and the solidified gazes between them held up his body, preventing him from falling into the Black Hole.

The power of the Town God, the Power of Life and Death!

Xiao Mu's gaze turned towards the Black Hole, sensing from it the power of the Town God and the Power of Life and Death, astonishing him with the kind of power Yu Wen'en was enduring.

"The 'Gates of the Underworld' are open," said Yu Wen'en with a wry smile, a sorrow evident in his smile, "I must maintain this state all the time and cannot relax, otherwise, I will immediately fall into the Netherworld."

"This is the 'Gates of the Underworld'?" Xiao Mu couldn't help but exclaim.

The 'Gates of the Underworld' was an Authority Technique of the Town God which Xiao Mu himself was preparing to cultivate, only that he had not yet obtained the Secret Manual and had no opportunity to practice it.

"Fellow Taoist, are you familiar with this Authority Technique?" Yu Wen'en asked, somewhat surprised by Xiao Mu's tone, sensing something.

"Not hiding it from Fellow Taoist, I am a Town God by position, currently preparing for the 'Gates of the Underworld' Secret Manual. Once I obtain the manual, I will cultivate it. Your 'Gates of the Underworld,' who did it come from?" Xiao Mu's voice gradually became more calm, as Yu Wen'en's performance didn't seem as weak as he had imagined.

Yu Wen'en spoke with anger, "It was the Tai Cang Town God."

"Tai Cang Town God?"

Xiao Mu was somewhat surprised, not expecting to hear the name of Tai Cang Town God from Yu Wen'en, "Is Tai Cang Town God also in Twilight Forest Village?"

Yu Wen'en sighed, "It seems Fellow Taoist is not very familiar with the movements of Tai Cang. Yes, Tai Cang is also in Twilight Forest Village; it was there that I was injured by him."

Xiao Mu's divine light in his eyes gradually retreated, the news of Tai Cang also being in Twilight Forest Village giving him a sense of pressure.

Thus, there were two extremely powerful Divine Spirit experts in Twilight Forest Village, one was Eternal Ancestor and the other the Tai Cang Town God, no, perhaps including Qing Jie Thunder God as well.

These were three top-tier Divine Spirit experts, whereas the Divine Spirits on the human side in Twilight Forest Village were not as numerous, foreshadowing troubling situations in future large-scale battles.

"Do you know of Tai Cang Town God's whereabouts, Fellow Taoist?" Xiao Mu cautiously inquired.

Yu Wen'en responded with a bitter smile, "After I was injured, I can barely escape from Tai Cang, how could I dare to explore his whereabouts?"

Xiao Mu fell silent, Yu Wen'en's words made sense; having been injured by Tai Cang, he should indeed be exceedingly cautious, how could he possibly try to actively trace him?

"Do you know who I am?" Yu Wen'en tentatively inquired about Xiao Mu's identity.

"I am Xiao Mu." Xiao Mu casually revealed his true identity without any concealment.

"Xiao Mu, Fellow Taoist Xiao?" A look of surprise appeared on Yu Wen'en's face as he carefully observed Xiao Mu.

"Have you heard of me?" Xiao Mu indifferently asked.

"Few people haven't heard of the great reputation of Fellow Taoist Xiao," Yu Wen'en suddenly exclaimed, "I've heard that not only is Fellow Taoist Xiao powerful, but also blessed with great opportunities, able to casually find Treasures and Divine Weapons others wouldn't see in their entire lives, but to you, they seem like mere scraps."

Xiao Mu was dumbstruck; it was the first time he heard such a description of himself. Rumors, this definitely was the spread of rumors, which were terrifying.

"Cough, cough!"

Xiao Mu awkwardly coughed to correct Yu Wen'en, "Fellow Taoist, you exaggerate. Even for me, Divine Weapons and Treasures are rare items."

"Modesty becomes Fellow Taoist Xiao."

Yu Wen'en complimented Xiao Mu smoothly, "Being a Town God as well, can you lift the 'Gates of the Underworld' for me?"
