340: Chapter 340 Who are you, who have never decayed?

An aged, hoarse voice abruptly and slowly drifted out from the depths of that towering, ancient altar.

Every word carried the weight and desolation of accumulated years, emitting an ancient aura that made one's heart palpitate.

"An ancient existence?"

Ye Hongfu's expression changed drastically. Her clear and beautiful face was instantly covered in solemnity, and her Spiritual Qi circulated to the extreme in an instant.

She immediately entered the highest level of combat readiness. Her beautiful eyes were as sharp as knives, firmly locked onto the center of the altar, fearing a sudden assault from an unknown, terrifying power.

This aura... gave off an extremely dangerous feeling!

"Be careful! There's a problem!"

Qin Wushang reminded.

The ancient altar before them was now frantically blooming with extremely brilliant Nine-colored Divine Light.

Thousands of streaks of auspicious Qi and ten thousand rays of glowing light.

The aura surging from it became more and more terrifying, as if a great power who had slept for ten thousand ages was about to awaken.

"It shouldn't be; this doesn't match the records at all!"

Demon Spirit Child took a half-step back with her jade-like feet. Her exquisite little face was full of unbelievable confusion, and her delicate brows were tightly knit.

"The Ancient Divine Script that my race spent countless years deciphering clearly recorded that only an immortal bone was sealed here. It never mentioned a powerhouse or a remnant soul being suppressed here."

"This shouldn't be the scene we see now!"

She bit her lip, her voice trembling slightly.

The ancient altar gave her the feeling that a terrifying powerhouse was being unsealed, making her feel very uneasy.

"According to the ancient scrolls, there should only be an immortal bone containing a supreme Legacy inside, an object of worship for a great race. Other than that, there is nothing else!"

She added, her words lacking confidence.

Regarding these ancient civilization ruins annihilated in the long river of history, even the Yao Race with its long-standing Legacy cannot guarantee they can uncover all the secrets.

No one could predict what kind of terrifying existence would be unearthed in the next moment.

Qin Wushang's expression was indifferent, and he naturally carried an air of arrogance that looked down upon the world.

He raised his eyes to look directly at the altar where the divine light soared into the sky. His gaze was indifferent, without the slightest hint of fear.

"You who hide your head and show your tail, if you want to come out, then do so honorably. If you cannot, then do not hide inside playing tricks, only to be laughed at!"

His voice was cold and clear, carrying an unquestionable dominance.

He didn't believe that what was being released was some ancient powerhouse; instead, it seemed more like a remnant soul or a fragmented Divine Sense.

"Junior... your vision is quite good, and your Heart-Nature is sufficiently arrogant. You truly live up to being hailed by the myriad heavens and worlds as the Supreme Double Pupils walking the invincible path."

That vicissitudinous and ancient voice sounded again, seemingly carrying a hint of faint approval and a trace of indifference that looked down upon all living beings.

"Boom!"

The moment the words fell, the Nine-colored Divine Light at the center of the altar suddenly boiled. A blurred figure slowly condensed within the divine light, gradually manifesting.

At the same time, an immortal bone, brilliant all over, shimmered with flowing light as it slowly floated out from the depths of the altar.

The immortal light was dazzling, and immortal runes entwined like True Dragons. As the immortal charm flowed, bursts of melodious immortal music echoed between heaven and earth.

"Dong, dong..."

The moment it appeared, it was like an ancient sacrificial sound was being transmitted, echoing through the mortal world.

"It's a remnant soul!"

Ye Hongfu's expression suddenly tightened, and her breathing hitched slightly. Her beautiful eyes stared intently at the blurred figure hovering above the immortal bone, her voice lowered by several degrees.

"This figure should be a remnant soul attached to the immortal bone; the immortal bone might be its host body!"

Seeing this, Demon Spirit Child's face turned pale. She subconsciously took a step back and cried out in a low voice.

"How can this be... How could an ancient remnant soul be hidden within the immortal bone? Is my race's interpretation of the ancient script incomplete?"

"The aura of this remnant soul is unimaginably ancient; it is definitely no ordinary character!"

Qin Wushang's eyes narrowed slightly. Two streaks of divine light shot out from his Supreme Double Pupils, piercing through the void and landing on the figure and the immortal bone. His tone remained calm and undisturbed.

"Just a wisp of a remnant soul. Even if it is attached to an immortal bone, it cannot stir up much trouble."

"You have lurked here for ten thousand ages; what exactly is your purpose for appearing today?"

"Possession? Do you have the qualifications?"

The remnant soul was somewhat surprised after hearing these words.

"Kid! Arrogant enough!"

"I have lived for so long, and you are the first person who can look directly at me and speak to me like this."

The remnant soul phantom trembled slightly, and billions of immortal runes on the immortal bone resonated simultaneously. The vicissitudinous voice that resounded through the ages was like the Heavenly Dao whispering.

"Since the Nine Heavens collapsed and the myriad worlds fell silent, there are not many people in this world who even dare to raise their heads to look at me."

"You junior, although your cultivation is still shallow, you have a Dao Heart that does not submit to heaven and earth and does not fear the ancient. You have a bit of the character of those truly Heaven-Defying ones from back then."

The remnant soul spoke repeatedly, its words carrying an incredibly ancient and sacred aura, as if it could suppress billions of races, like a supreme existence transcending all living beings.

"So, who are you?"

Qin Wushang asked, meeting its gaze.

The immortal light around the remnant soul retracted, and the blurred figure slightly raised its head. Its gaze was as indifferent as the vast Heavenly Dao. Its voice was not high, yet it pressed down so hard that the entire world trembled slightly.

"My name is not something you are worthy of knowing yet."

"Through the flow of ten thousand ages, the birth and death of the stars in the heavens, the collapse of the Immortal Realm, and the rise and fall of the myriad worlds... you are but a speck of dust in the long river of time, yet you dare to inquire about my true name?"

He glanced indifferently at Qin Wushang. There was no anger in his tone, only an indifference that looked down upon an ant.

"When I was slumbering, your so-called Supreme Double Pupils had not yet appeared in the world."

"The invincible path in your heart is, in my eyes, nothing more than a child's joke."

"I appear today not to discuss the Dao with you, but only because I see some potential in those eyes of yours, so I am willing to leave a wisp of a remnant voice here."

The figure lightly brushed its hand, and the immortal runes on the immortal bone flared up. Only its indifferent and ancient voice remained between heaven and earth.

"Remember, some existences are not for you to touch right now."

"As for my origin, you will only be qualified to hear it when you truly step into that supreme Domain."

The remnant soul seemed to have disappeared.

The immortal light shining on the immortal bone also began to dim.

"After saying so much, aren't you also dead?"

Qin Wushang spoke and reached out with a large hand, wanting to grab the immortal bone floating above.

"Dead?"

"Hahaha!!! Junior, do you understand what death is? Do you understand what life is?"

"My true body has long transcended the boundaries of life and death. My Physical Body was destroyed in the Epochal Catastrophe, and my Divine Soul was fragmented in the Heavenly Dao Tribulation. But even so, a wisp of a remnant soul can still suppress this world!"

"The death you see is merely my state of slumber."

"In the era when I fought, the heavens collapsed, the myriad Daos shattered, even immortals turned to ash, and Great Emperors all became dust."

"That I could survive as a wisp of a remnant soul is already Heaven-Defying!"

The hoarse voice resounded through the world once again, echoing through ten thousand ages of time and space, agitating every wave in the long river of time.

"You dare say I am dead?"

"If I were to return at my peak, with just one look, I could shatter your so-called Supreme Double Pupils and directly sever your invincible path!"

"Today, I just can't be bothered to argue with you."

"You junior, relying on a pair of double pupils, do you think you are invincible under heaven?"

"Remember!"

"My withered bones are older than your path of the Dao!"
