The moment that feeling surfaced, Ye Kunlun’s unease grew stronger, as if something was stirring, wanting to crawl out of the void.
His gaze was fixed on the spiritual coffin, his peripheral vision catching Kui’s smile turning more sinister, the corners of his mouth seeming to stretch towards his ears, a white glint flashing in his eyes.
“Kui, what are you smiling about?”
As soon as he spoke, an explosion occurred.
"Rumble!" The spiritual coffin immediately shattered, and white light erupted from within, illuminating the entire mourning hall.
A powerful aura emanated from the coffin.
Ye Kunlun raised his hand and struck with a palm, green light enveloping his hand as it shot towards the coffin.
“This… this is…” Ye Kunlun exclaimed.
Sha Sha, within the coffin, seemed transformed. Her once black hair was now silver-white.
Her dark brown eyes, like Kui’s, had turned pale, devoid of any black.
Everything appeared eerily strange.
“White God!”
Despite his shock, Ye Kunlun quickly understood the changes in Sha Sha.
She was being controlled by the White God, who had never revealed himself!
Heh heh—
Sha Sha emitted strange guttural sounds.
Suddenly, Kui transformed into a streak of white lightning and attacked Ye Kunlun.
Ye Kunlun unleashed a punch, striking Kui directly in the chest!
The instant Ye Kunlun’s fist hit Kui, a human-shaped talisman shot out from Kui’s back.
After leaving Kui’s body, the human-shaped white talisman transformed into a beam of white light and merged with Sha Sha.
Kui’s pupils returned to normal, a look of confusion on his face. “Shan, King Shanhe? I just…”
“If I’m not mistaken, you were controlled by the White God just now!” Ye Kunlun stated sternly, his gaze fixed on Sha Sha, who had emerged from the coffin.
The sinister aura emanating from Sha Sha made him feel it was more malevolent than the Power of Misfortune!
“White, White God?!”
Astonishment flashed in Kui’s eyes.
As the chieftain of the Barbarian tribe, he had never seen the White God, but he knew the White God was more mysterious and powerful than the Black God.
The Black God could manipulate the Power of Misfortune and already possessed immense destructive power.
As for them, they knew nothing about the White God!
Ye Kunlun nodded.
Heh heh—
Sha Sha made another strange sound in her throat, her eyes, devoid of any black, staring intently at Ye Kunlun.
Suddenly, she opened her mouth, and a beam of white light shot towards Ye Kunlun.
Its speed surpassed that of light!
A cyan glow appeared before Ye Kunlun, the Myriad Ancient Star Arts activating, starlight power flickering within the glow!
Bang—
The white light struck the cyan glow, creating a ripple of strangeness.
Swish—
Sha Sha teleported in front of Ye Kunlun, extending her pale hand, reaching for Ye Kunlun’s chest!
Ye Kunlun snorted coldly and met her attack with a Palm Lightning!
Boom—
The Palm Lightning exploded, sending Sha Sha flying back!
Ye Kunlun grabbed Kui and pulled him away from the mourning hall.
Heh heh—
After leaving the mourning hall, the two realized that a thin layer of white mist had enveloped the Barbarian tribe’s village at some unknown time.
And the Barbarian tribesmen within the white mist had their pupils turned a ghastly white, like walking corpses, staring blankly at Ye Kunlun and Kui.
“What, what exactly is happening?”
Kui was dumbfounded!
The current situation was completely beyond his expectations.
Fear and unease flickered in Kui’s eyes. “It must be because I disrespected the Black God, and the Black God has brought divine punishment upon our tribe…”
Ch-
Ye Kunlun flicked a finger, sending a stream of spiritual energy into Kui’s sea of consciousness.
Kui’s voice abruptly stopped, and he fell into a coma.
At this moment, Ye Kunlun couldn’t concern himself with Kui and could only render him unconscious for now.
Whoosh—
Sha Sha, who had been sent flying, burst forth, her silver-white hair like countless flying needles, shooting towards Ye Kunlun!
A Thunder Blade materialized in Ye Kunlun’s hand, and he slashed it horizontally!
Sizzle—
The silver-white hair touched Ye Kunlun’s Thunder Blade, emitting a sizzling sound, but it was not severed by his blade.
The countless silver strands, like strange threadworms, directly entwined around the Thunder Blade.
The Thunder Blade, ensnared by the threadworms, showed signs of petrification.
“Is this the power of the White God?” Ye Kunlun narrowed his eyes, sensing the White God’s power through the Thunder Blade.
It was a power completely different from the Power of Misfortune, capable of resisting the power of the Myriad Ancient Star Arts within the Thunder Blade and rendering it inert.
Ye Kunlun’s brow furrowed slightly.
These silver-white hair threadworms were more troublesome than he had anticipated.
The next second, Ye Kunlun subtly moved his Thunder Blade, and it instantly dispersed.
He flashed forward, appearing before Sha Sha, and extended his right hand, a stream of scorching spiritual energy flowing into Sha Sha’s body.
Sha Sha’s body trembled slightly, and a coolness spread from within her, gradually clearing her consciousness.
“You… you, sir…” The white glint in Sha Sha’s eyes receded, her previous clarity returning. She looked at Ye Kunlun, somewhat bewildered.
She had served the King of the Northern Territory and attempted to assassinate Ye Kunlun, failing and being severely injured.
Now awake, she found herself before Ye Kunlun, seemingly unaware of what had transpired.
Ye Kunlun waved his right hand gently, and a gust of breeze dispersed the silver-white hair from Sha Sha’s body.
Sha Sha then noticed the strangeness about herself. “Sir… what happened to me?”
“You were controlled by the White God!” Ye Kunlun’s voice was cold.
Sha Sha had served the King of the Northern Territory and had even injured Na Lan Ming Yue. Ye Kunlun should have killed her!
But—
The White God had chosen Sha Sha, making him realize she might possess some peculiarity.
Confusion flickered in Sha Sha’s eyes. “White, White God?”
Ye Kunlun looked at the now unconscious Kui, then coldly at Sha Sha. “You’ve been to the Barbarian’s temple, and you don’t know about the White God?”
Sha Sha shook her head. “Sir, I, I only know about the Black God.”
“Is that so?”
Ye Kunlun gave a cold smile, causing Sha Sha’s heart to tighten.
She avoided Ye Kunlun’s gaze, not daring to meet his eyes, and said apologetically, “Sir, I’m sorry about what happened before. I… I had no choice. My mother is in the hands of the King of the Northern Territory…”
Ye Kunlun’s expression was indifferent.
Even if he knew Sha Sha likely had a weakness that Ye Kunlun could exploit, he would not forgive her!
“Come with me to the temple!”
With that, he turned and walked towards the direction of the temple.
Sha Sha followed without hesitation.
As for the Barbarian tribesmen controlled by the White God’s power, after Sha Sha left, the strange power dissipated, and they fell unconscious.
A moment later, Ye Kunlun once again stood at the entrance of the temple.
He gazed at the massive black temple before him, filled with desolation and ancient mystery, his eyes burning with fighting spirit!
Upon seeing the temple again, Sha Sha’s expression became somewhat dazed.
Traces of white power swirled around her.
Ye Kunlun noticed the changes in her.
Sha Sha, however, seemed oblivious to it all.
As expected—
The outcome was as he had anticipated.
If the King of the Northern Territory was the Black God’s proxy, then Sha Sha was the proxy chosen by the White God…
