"Why does the Lingxu Palace still need a Celestial God to guard it?"
"This old man doesn't know. Perhaps it's to reduce casualties and losses. They don't want to take over a barren land!"
Just as the Grand Elder was about to speak again, a thunderous roar suddenly shook the sky, filled with divine radiance!
"Blah, blah, blah, are you done talking? If you want to fight, hurry up. Dawdling is really annoying!"
"Three True Gods, you've truly lowered my expectations. Celestial God, how long do you intend to wait?"
The deafening dissatisfaction echoed through the nine heavens.
"Boom!"
The entire ground trembled, and thick dust exploded, threatening to engulf the ancestral lands of the Sword Bone lineage!
"Patriarch, look!"
Nie Qiuying's face changed drastically as he pointed to the palm of the thousand-zhang figure. A human being clad in Qilin armor sat there, arms crossed, looking casual.
Boom!
Wei Chigong stood up, and the thousand-zhang figure erupted in golden light, causing the heavens and earth to rumble.
"Pfft!!"
Threads of Qilin divine fire flowed across the armor, and the entire world seemed to be engulfed in a downpour of fire, staining the deep red sky!
"Wei Chigong, First Army Commander of the Qilin Legion of the Great Han Imperial Dynasty, has come to pay his respects! Who will answer the challenge!!"
His divine power surged forth, and the power of a True God was gradually devoured by the power of a Celestial God. At this moment, the terrifying aura of a Celestial God struck fear into countless beings!
"The Great Han Imperial Dynasty??"
"The Patriarch is from the Great Han Imperial Dynasty!"
Nie Qiuying's hand trembled violently. The impact of Hu Yan Zan was too immense. A mere Virtual God had easily defeated Yun Si, crossing such a chasm!
Yun Si! That was his lifelong nemesis!
"My Lord!"
The Patriarch's face turned pale. He had already heard Nie Qiuying mention the matter of the Blood Sea Floating Coffin.
"My Lord, has our Sword Bone lineage offended the Great Han Imperial Dynasty?"
"Offended?"
Wei Chigong tilted his neck and sneered, "Do you think your Sword Bone lineage is worthy? Hmm!"
"Yes, yes, yes!!"
"My Lord, our Sword Bone lineage has always defended our homeland and never expanded outwards. If we have offended you outside the Blood Sea Floating Coffin, please forgive us. I will personally travel to the Great Han to express our gratitude to the Han Emperor's grace!"
The Patriarch of the Sword Bone lineage bowed, his face covered in cold sweat.
"No need!"
"The Great Han's territory is not a place for any stray cat or dog to tread. You talk too much!"
"Humph~!"
Wei Chigong brandished his bamboo-joint steel whip. With a gentle swing, it ignited ten thousand zhang of fire, like divine fire pillars from the Heavenly Court, crushing down directly!
That endlessly extending pillar of divine fire, traversing layers of void, erupted with infinite divine thunder!
"Not good, summon the Ancestral Artifact Divine Sword!! Summon..."
The Patriarch of the Sword Bone lineage, facing that terrifying pressure, felt his True God divine power insufficient to support his physical strength. His entire body trembled violently. Suzan Novel Network
"Quick! Summon the clan's divine sword!!"
He roared. Wei Chigong's seemingly casual strike contained the might of a Celestial God!
A Celestial God before them, how could they resist!
"Quick!!"
Nie Qiuying hastily turned his head and reached out. A blinding white light flashed deep within the Sword Bone lineage, but it was extinguished the next moment!
Boom!
Wei Chigong's strike was incredibly fast. The moment Nie Qiuying reached out, the bamboo-joint steel whip, engulfed in myriad divine fires and divine thunders of the Qilin, descended directly!
"Boom!!"
The entire land ignited with towering divine fire, as if it had fallen into a sea of flames. The yellowish soil instantly blackened, and houses turned into dust. A colossal roar shook the land, and a fiery chasm, stretching for a thousand miles, lay across this land!
"Creature of the Great Han Imperial Dynasty, you have gone too far!"
A middle-aged man in a gray robe, stepping through layers of Qilin divine fire, ascended into the nine heavens. Brilliant divine light flashed in his eyes, constantly resisting the erosion of the Qilin divine fire.
...
Deep within the Blood Sea Floating Coffin.
"Boom!!"
Divine light fiercely shot from the blood coffin. The black giant net that had been suppressing the blood coffin retreated further and further, torn open by the blood light.
"Humph~"
A streak of bloody divine light shot out from the coffin cracks, sweeping across the endless land. Shang Shitu and Hu Yan Zan hid below, watching the terrifying blood light sweep through the world, tearing open layers of void!
Streams of sunlight from the outside shone in, but within a hundred zhang, they were completely swallowed by black mist!
Streams of black mist madly eroded the cracked void, and within moments, the spatial rift torn by the blood light was completely sealed.
"What is inside? To be able to break through a space abandoned by the Great Dao with just a divine light?"
Hu Yan Zan was horrified, his face pale. This scene surpassed his understanding. Even with his current True God power, even a Celestial God could not shatter the space of this world, yet a mere streak of blood light from within this bloody radiance had easily torn space, and it was land abandoned by the Great Dao.
"Go!"
"Quick, go!!"
Hu Yan Zan grabbed Shang Shitu. Shang Shitu looked back and saw a mysterious black primordial spirit emerge from the bloody light, towering ten thousand zhang high. The moment this black primordial spirit appeared, the heavens and earth collapsed, lightning raged, the entire boundless land constantly caved in, and endless blood surged out, as if the world was undergoing a reset!
"Run!!"
Shang Shitu and Hu Yan Zan hurried their steps, but the moment they stepped, their pale blue primordial spirits turned transparent white, their twelve crimson-gold divine fires were extinguished, and the meager Netherflame contained within their divine fires dissipated.
"Quick!!"
Hu Yan Zan's eyes were filled with horror. His spiritual energy was directly depleted, and his transparent primordial spirit was covered in dense bloody cracks!
Concurrently, outside the Blood Sea Floating Coffin, Hu Yan Zan and Shang Shitu's physical bodies began to decay, their vital energy fading. In Huang Zhong's horrified gaze, their skin rapidly aged, their spiritual energy was completely depleted, and bloody cracks spread all over their bodies.
"General Hu!!"
"General Shang!!"
Huang Zhong roared, "Where is the Vermillion Bird Divine Beast!!"
"Boom!!"
A ten-thousand-zhang Vermillion Bird descended from the void, and rolling Southern Bright Flames descended upon Hu Yan Zan's and Shang Shitu's physical bodies. The Vermillion Bird divine fire also possessed the will of immortality and the ability to be reborn, representing life!
However, the moment the divine fire descended, it was scattered and unable to advance an inch!
"Ah!!"
"What happened inside!!"
Within the Blood Sea Floating Coffin, Hu Yan Zan and Shang Shitu struggled to move their feet. The motionless, blurred black primordial spirit behind them quietly observed this world.
"Don't look back!"
"Don't look back!!"
Shang Shitu struggled to move his feet. Before they could take three steps, both were simultaneously suppressed to the ground by immense pressure, their bodies gradually submerged by blood.
