110: Chapter 109 The Strange Movement of Divine Thought

The fist light shattered the boundaries of the realm.

It smashed directly into the Black River.

Boom...

The ominous Qi exploded, and the towering river water completely overturned at this moment, revealing a blood-colored coffin at the bottom of the Black River. Gray, ominous Qi emanated from the blood-colored coffin.

This coffin seemed to be the very source of the ominous Qi.

It was incomparably eerie.

"What is going on?"

Ye Xiu broke free from the chains, looked at the coffin in the Black River, and a bad premonition rose in his heart.

As the river water overturned.

The might of the fist light did not diminish, striking directly at the bottom of the Black River.

And that blood-colored coffin was at the very center of the attack.

Thud...

The fist light dissipated.

It did not shake the coffin in the slightest.

Just as both sides of the battlefield breathed a sigh of relief, the blood-colored coffin suddenly began to vibrate.

The dead thing inside seemed to have been awakened by the fist light, wanting to revive from the endless silence.

With the vibration of the coffin.

The entire Ghost Realm was completely shrouded in ominous Qi.

The altar summoned by the nine Immortal-level skeletons erupted with countless ancient chants.

"Damn it, repair the Black River Seal; we cannot let the Venerable One revive ahead of schedule."

The skeletons ignored Ye Xiu.

They all turned and rushed towards the Black River region.

The Dao roared.

Upon reaching the Black River region, they immediately exerted all their strength to suppress the ominous Qi on the coffin.

With the maintenance of the nine Daos, the ominous Qi that had been continuously flowing from the coffin began to fade.

The entity inside the coffin seemed to be hypnotized again, gradually falling silent.

Above the Void Realm.

Ye Xiu watched everything coldly.

The entity inside the coffin was absolutely terrifying and was very likely the source of the Ghost Race.

Back when he obtained the Blade Master's Legacy.

He had once seen some images.

Although in the Blade Master's memory images, the source of the eeriness was a gigantic eyeball,

but the ominous Qi that covered the sun and moon was not much different from the coffin before him.

Even if it was not that eyeball lying in the coffin, the entity within should be similar in strength.

It must be in the [ Supreme Realm ].

Seeing the ominous Qi rapidly dissipating, Ye Xiu's mind raced as he considered the best course of action.

This coffin was sealed within the Ghost Realm and was guarded by nine Immortals.

Besides their protective role, these nine skeletons clearly intended to wait for the entity in the coffin to fully recover.

Perhaps in the extremely distant Taichu Era.

The powerhouse in this coffin was once a hegemon who commanded the heavens, but was defeated in a certain war.

And these nine Immortal-level skeletons.

If they had been guarding the Ghost Realm since the Taichu Era, then the Ancient Imperial Court must have known about this place.

But the Human Emperor and the others acquiesced to this matter.

Clearly, it was because the entity in the coffin was terrifyingly powerful, and even the Ancient Quartet did not want to risk completely exterminating it.

It seems the Taichu Era was not peaceful either.

Watching the rapidly receding ominous Qi, Ye Xiu frowned deeply.

Should he fight?

Or should he ignore it?

His brows were furrowed tightly.

A few seconds later.

Ye Xiu shattered the boundary and flew toward the passageway.

Currently, he did not have the combat power to face the [ Supreme Realm ] head-on.

If he fought, and the entity in the coffin fully revived, he would likely die here.

After all, a suspected powerhouse from the Taichu Era, even if severely injured, was not something he could handle.

Below.

The nine skeletons merely glanced at Ye Xiu's retreating back.

And then ignored him.

Currently, the vibration in the coffin had not been fully resolved, and they had no time to attend to other matters.

After all, the reason for their existence was because of this coffin.

If anything went wrong with this coffin, even Immortals would be held accountable.

Just as Ye Xiu stepped out of the Ghost Realm.

A shocking Battle Intent suddenly surged through the universe.

In the northern pole of the endless Void Realm, the Deity Obsession, which had originally been entangled by a black hole, suddenly seemed to sense something.

It let out a roar.

It broke free from the black hole's shackles and charged towards the Main World at high speed.

"Damn it, why is this ghost thing here?"

Ye Xiu exited the Ghost Realm passageway, stepped onto the clouds, and looked at the Battle Intent that shook the universe.

His heart sank.

This Deity Obsession seemed to have a grudge against the entity in the coffin; even though only a shred of its remnant thought remained, it had actually regained some sanity after sensing the coffin's aura.

It was charging rapidly towards the Main World.

"Damn it, deal with your own mess."

Ye Xiu paved the way with the Power of the Radiant Sun, forcibly creating a golden path leading directly to the Ghost Realm passageway.

Tap, tap, tap...

The Deity Obsession's speed was extremely fast.

In just three minutes, it had arrived in the Main World from the northern pole of the endless Void Realm.

A terrifying aura pressed down upon the world.

All the realms connected to the Main World chose to Seal themselves for self-preservation at this moment, not daring to show the slightest hostility.

Fearing that this terrifying Deity Obsession would come knocking at their door.

Whoosh...

Everything happened as expected.

After arriving in the Main World, the Deity Obsession immediately stepped onto the golden path Ye Xiu had prepared for it.

In the Ghost Realm.

The nine Immortals who were still suppressing the blood-colored coffin felt their hearts sink after the Deity Obsession entered the realm.

Their hearts sank immediately.

They had just sent away a lone wolf, why did a fierce tiger come now?

Xing Zhan!

They naturally recognized this guy.

In the Taichu Era, he was also a hegemon-level figure.

After being killed by the Heavenly Lord, the remnant thought formed at the end of the Taichu Era—at that time, the Tian Clan had already declined, their powerhouses had all died in battle, and there was no corresponding combat power to deal with this Deity Obsession.

Now, this is great.

He had come knocking.

"Dong Huang, I didn't expect you to have a day like this."

The voice of the Deity Obsession was no longer muddled; after entering the Ghost Realm, it seemed to have regained a shred of clarity.

There was no answer.

The entity in the blood-colored coffin had fallen silent again under the suppression of the nine Immortals.

It did not perceive the aura from the outside.

The Deity Obsession looked at the blood-colored coffin surrounded by ominous Qi, took a step, and arrived directly above the Black River. In its broad palm, an extremely gigantic axe appeared, though it was unclear when.

Whoosh...

The axe blade sliced through everything.

Carrying an unrivaled might, it slashed towards the coffin below.

"A mere remnant thought, yet you dare to be presumptuous."

The skeletons near the coffin all soared into the sky, wielding their respective Dao weapons, and surrounded the Deity Obsession to kill it.

"Scram!"

Amidst a roar.

The nine Dao weapons were sent flying the moment they made contact with the axe.

At this moment, the Deity Obsession possessed unrivaled Divine Might.

When it was alive, it was a powerhouse on par with Dong Huang; even as a remnant thought after death, it was not something ordinary Immortals could contend with.

Boom...

The nine skeletons were slashed and sent flying.

Seeing that the Deity Obsession had reached the front of the coffin, they didn't have time to think and united again, continuing to charge and kill.

"Even if this deity is only a remnant thought, it is not something you can stop."

The Deity Obsession left the coffin area.

It held the giant axe, slashing rapidly, knocking away the Dao weapons that charged at it, one after another.

With the attacks of the giant axe.

The nine weapons capable of containing the Dao gradually showed signs of cracking.

Only a few hours passed.

The nine Immortals, who were one with their Daos, were covered in cracks, on the verge of shattering at any moment.

Clearly, in this battle.

Their Daos had already been severely damaged by the Deity Obsession; if it weren't for their numerical advantage, they would likely have had their Daos shattered within a dozen rounds.

Thoroughly dying and vanishing.

Just as they wanted to charge up again.

A sigh came from the blood coffin.

"Sigh... Xing Zhan, only by escaping into the Return to Ruins is there a possibility of revival; why struggle so bitterly?"
