233: Chapter 233 Burial Ground

He struggled, relying on a monstrous hatred and an undying obsession, to slowly stand up from the ground.

At this moment, he was bathed in blood, his clothes tattered beyond recognition, and his wounds were still bleeding incessantly. Every movement was accompanied by the creaking sound of his bones—as if he might collapse again at any moment.

But his eyes were shockingly bright.

Like burning ghost fire, he stared fixedly at Saint Son Yao Wuyue and Long Yue above.

And in his hand, unbeknownst to anyone, had appeared an ancient Talisman covered in spiderweb-like cracks—

The Talisman was shaped like a skull, with hollow eye sockets and a mouth curved into a strange, sinister arc. It radiated an aura of deathly silence that shared the same Origin as the Eternal Graveyard, yet was even purer and more terrifying than the Death Qi within the Eternal Graveyard itself!

The aura was chilling and bone-piercing, as if it could freeze a person's Soul, making the air become viscous and heavy!

"You want to take me, Li Chengsi, as your slave?"

He raised his head, his bloodshot eyes flashing with a frenzied light as he stared fixedly at Saint Son Yao Wuyue and Long Yue above. His voice was hoarse, like a broken gong, yet carried a world-destroying madness:

"Just by relying on you two clowns from the Central Plains—"

"You aren't worthy!"

"How could you, mere frogs in a well, fathom the secrets of the Eternal Graveyard!"

He suddenly raised the skull Talisman in his hand, his voice rising sharply, carrying a determination to burn everything down together:

"Today, I will let you witness what is truly..."

"The Descent of the Burial Land!"

Before the words even faded, he did not hesitate to crush the skull Talisman in his hand!

BOOM!!!

A deafening roar that shook the universe suddenly erupted!

It was as if the heavens and earth were collapsing, or perhaps as if Chaos was beginning anew. The entire Eternal Graveyard began to shake violently, as never before!

The earth shook, mountains crumbled, boulders rolled, and dust filled the air—the vibration was a hundred times more intense than when Li Chengsi had summoned the Ancestral Witch's will earlier!

The ground beneath his feet rolled and surged like raging waves, and bottomless ravines, like the hideous maws of giant beasts, spread crazily—devouring everything!

Endless nether Death Qi gushed out from the ravines, shooting into the sky like a volcanic eruption, forming pillars of ink-black Qi that pierced the clouds—dyeing the sky into a despairing darkness!

The already dim sky was instantly shrouded in thick, ink-like blackness, and not a single ray of light could penetrate it—as if the entire world had fallen into eternal night!

From beneath the ground came muffled and terrifying roars, as if countless behemoths that had slept for billions of years were awakening, about to break through the earth—to completely devour this world!

An aura of extreme terror slowly awakened from the deepest depths of the Eternal Graveyard!

This aura was cold, deathly silent, and vast, carrying the pressure to extinguish all life, like the gaze of the God of Death from the end of Reincarnation, instantly locking onto everyone present!

Even heaven's favored children like Saint Son Yao Wuyue and Long Yue felt their Souls freeze and their bodies stiffen in the face of this aura, and even breathing became difficult—an involuntary feeling of insignificance and despair rising in their hearts!

"I didn't expect that the Eternal Graveyard in the mere Southern Barbarian lands would hide such an overbearing secret technique!"

Saint Son Yao Wuyue still wore a smile, but deep within that smile, there was a bit more gravity, and beads of sweat even seeped from his forehead.

He dared not be careless in the slightest, his Demonic Qi circulating crazily around his body, forming a thick barrier of black fog like a tortoise shell to resist that terrifying aura of deathly silence.

Long Yue's moonlight shone violently, its clear radiance surging to form a huge, pure moon wheel that protected her in the center.

In her cold eyes, the previous indifference was gone, replaced by profound gravity and a trace of undetectable shock.

Clearly, the terrifying degree of this "Descent of the Burial Land" far exceeded her expectations.

Li Chengsi appeared frantic, his hair disheveled like wild grass, his body bathed in blood like an Asura, laughing crazily. His laughter was shrill and desperate, echoing in this deathly darkness:

"Hahaha... If that's the case, then let's all... be buried together!"

"Let this Eternal Graveyard become the burial ground for us all!"

BOOM—!!!

The instant the thunder exploded, the skull Talisman did not shatter into powder like an ordinary Magical Artifact, but instead transformed into countless ink-colored worms that twisted and squirmed in the Void Realm, making a strange "rustling" sound—

Like billions of dead Souls whispering, each sound piercing directly into the Divine Soul!

They scrambled to sink into the earth, and the moment they touched the ground, they transformed into a jet-black pattern spanning eternity, like a key to awaken a sleeping behemoth—suddenly igniting the source of annihilation that had been silent for billions of years!

The entire Eternal Graveyard was no longer just vibrating, but emitting a heart-wrenching wail!

This sound did not come from mortal beings, but from the weeping of countless dead Souls deep within the earth, the mournful cry before the collapse of the Emperor Tombs—shaking the Laws of heaven and earth, as if even the Void Realm was about to be torn apart by this sorrow!

Countless floating Emperor Tombs no longer emitted muffled roars, but collapsed like fragile glass, gravel and fragments of ancient coffins flying everywhere—kicking up dust that blotted out the sun, obscuring the entire firmament!

Those once-indestructible tombstones, carved with ancient runes, now crumbled like sandcastles built by children, shattering inch by inch under the impact of an invisible force. The powdery stone debris was swept up by the Death Qi, turning into a black sandstorm that blotted out the sky—wherever it passed, everything was ground into powder!

The Emperor corpses and Divine bones buried within the Emperor Tombs all awakened from their slumber!

The long-decayed Emperor corpses wore tattered imperial robes, ghost-green fire burning in their hollow eye sockets, floating in the monstrous Death Qi, each movement of their hands carrying the power to destroy the world!

The jade-white Divine bones flickered with a faint spiritual light, but were tightly entangled by Death Qi, emitting a "crack, crack" sound of shattering, as if telling of endless unwillingness!

They were unwilling to sink again, letting out deafening roars, the roars filled with indignation against fate!

There were even countless vengeful spirits wailing in the Death Qi, their desperate roars piercing the eardrums and stabbing directly into the Divine Soul, making one's heart numb and their Divine Soul feel as if it were about to split—as if they would be devoured by this despair in the next moment!

The earth was no longer just splitting into shallow ravines, but was as if gripped tightly by an invisible giant hand and then torn apart crazily!

The tectonic plates shifted violently, towering mountains collapsed instantly, and the sinking ground formed bottomless abysses. Black cracks spread like spiderwebs, covering the entire graveyard—as if to completely tear the earth asunder!

The viscous, ink-like, and bone-chilling nether Death Qi was no longer gushing out slowly, but like a breached river of the underworld, it surged from the abyss into the firmament with the power to destroy the world!

Wherever the Death Qi passed, the air was frozen, and space melted, emitting a "hissing" sound of corrosion—as if even the Void Realm was about to be devoured by this extreme deathly silence, and there was no longer any life to be found in the world!

In the span of a breath, the sky lost all its colors; azure, gold, and crimson all faded away, leaving only pure, all-consuming ink-black Death Qi.

The sun, moon, and stars were completely obscured, unable to shine even a glimmer of light, and the world fell into eternal darkness!

The power of the Laws that originally flowed through the Void Realm retreated step by step under the erosion of the annihilation Death Qi, eventually dissipating completely. Only the most primitive, most pure death and silence spread through the world like a tide—wherever it passed, nothing grew, and all spirits perished!

"Not good! He is triggering the Origin annihilation power of the Eternal Graveyard! This is a forbidden technique of mutual destruction!"

Saintess Long Yue's cold countenance showed cracks for the first time, her eyes, previously as calm as an ancient well, filled with shock and gravity, her voice even carrying a trace of undetectable trembling.

The moonlight Dao rhythm surrounding her body trembled violently under the pressure of the Death Qi, its light dimming by more than half, and in the end, it could only barely protect the three feet of space around her, like a lonely boat in a storm—at any moment, it could be devoured by the monstrous waves and vanish into nothingness!

Wisps of Death Qi penetrated her moonlight defense and invaded her body, causing her jade lips to turn slightly pale, and her breath became somewhat disordered—her originally holy body was actually tainted with a trace of Death Qi!

The playfulness and composure on Saint Son Yao Wuyue's face also completely vanished, replaced by an indelible gloom, his eyes flashing with a look of disbelief.

His folding fan snapped shut with a crisp "crack," and Demonic Qi surged into the sky around him, transforming into a ten-thousand-foot-tall phantom of a Demonic God, hideous and terrifying, with fangs exposed—attempting to prop up a safe Domain!
