Nine Dao One held his spear, his back straight, awaiting that being's descent. He trembled slightly, unable to contain his excitement.
How many years had it been? Finally, a response! Was that being... returning?!
"I don't have his blood in me, but he once used his own blood to baptize many people's bodies," Nine Dao One replied to the Dog Emperor, calming his emotions.
It was a glorious era, with heroes vying for dominance and darkness surging, yet also a sorrowful one, where blood and chaos flooded the heavens like a broken dam. There was a time when that being had to baptize those on their side with their own blood to extend their lives.
Everyone was lost in thought. Of that ancient history, almost entirely erased, they knew only fragments, and their hearts were shaken. This human skin before them had been so close to that being? It had received the baptism of their blood! This caused waves to churn in their hearts, like a stellar sea, making it impossible to remain calm.
At this moment, the battle spear in Nine Dao One's hand became even more radiant, emitting a heaven-piercing light, like a great fire sweeping across the stellar sea, illuminating countless universes. Who could have predicted that the spear's rusted bronze would eventually transform into a rain of light, scattering across heaven and earth! The rust, left by that being, was imbued with their aura.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Footsteps drew closer, becoming increasingly clear and real, crossing a hundred lifetimes, transcending eons, passing through one epoch after another, arriving from beyond this world and outside of history.
These footsteps possessed a very regular rhythm. Nine Dao One, the Dog Emperor, and others felt at ease, finding nothing amiss. However, this unique frequency, this mysterious rhythm, sounded to the Supreme Being of Soul River like countless heavy hammers striking his heart!
Was it targeting him?! How was that possible? That being's true body shouldn't be able to return!
The Supreme Being in the abyss shivered, his body tensing. It had been many years, perhaps tens of millions of years, even one or two epochs, since he had felt such a terrifying sensation, which made him intensely uneasy. This was an invisible pressure, an awe-inspiring, invincible force, like the primordial river of time bursting its banks, roaring and surging towards him! Even as a Supreme Being, he was terrified. His heartstrings were stretched taut, enduring an unparalleled heavy pressure.
In a trance, everyone saw a person approaching. Although very distant and incredibly blurry, they were truly coming from an unknown place, arriving in the present!
"It's him... it's really him!" Tears were about to roll down Nine Dao One's face. After so many years of longing, and prayers again and again, had he truly returned?
However, at this moment, the battle spear in his hand gradually calmed, all its light receding. The rust scattered across the land, the endless, splendid rain of light, all gradually dimmed.
Both Nine Dao One and the Dog Emperor, Rotten Corpse, and others stiffened, their expressions frozen. Had something gone wrong with the summoning midway? The spear dimming meant it couldn't send out more information, making it difficult to draw that being back?
The Supreme Being in the abyss did not move, still on high alert. He was cautious and solemn, saying, "Is it real or an illusion? Is it him?"
The Dog Emperor sighed deeply. Nine Dao One, that old rascal, was as unreliable as ever, messing things up at the crucial moment!
Suddenly, downstream in Soul River, a stone tablet rose from the mud and sand, emanating a heaven-reaching radiance, like a lighthouse in countless universes, illuminating the void, intending to guide that being back. Not to mention others, even the Supreme Being in the abyss constricted his pupils, startled.
Nine Dao One was deeply surprised, incredibly astonished, but then felt a sense of relief. There was a stone tablet here, left by that being. Today, it resonated with the battle spear, causing a qualitative change in the situation.
Chu Feng was stunned. It wasn't the first time he had seen that tablet. Earlier, on the Three-Way Battlefield, he had accidentally encountered Soul River and seen the tablet buried within it. He never expected this stone tablet, which had been dormant for countless epochs, to revive, its runes filling the sky, constructing a platform, like an altar, or an indestructible lighthouse, illuminating the area.
"The coordinates... left by that being?!" The Supreme Being in the abyss felt his scalp tingle, realizing for the first time that something big was amiss. In the past, they had tried to move it, but the tablet was indestructible, impossible to erase. Now, it was showing such an unusual reaction.
How could the Supreme Being in the abyss remain composed? How could he stay calm? He struck, decisively and swiftly, blasting a beam of light towards the tablet. He then personally swooped down, his fist print burning like a stellar sea, like a heaven and earth blood sacrifice, striking the stone tablet.
Chu Feng quickly blocked him, preventing him from destroying it.
As if sensing something, the stone tablet glowed, unafraid of the Supreme Being's most potent strike. It rumbled and trembled slightly, radiating endless runes that constructed a platform in the void.
Those present were shaken. In that infinitely distant domain, in that eternally unknown place, in what seemed like the primordial river of time spanning several epochs, a large foot descended, stepping onto the platform constructed of runes. At the same moment, the Supreme Being who had evaded Chu Feng and swooped down exploded with a bang, as if struck by the strongest chaotic lightning tribulation in history, right before that foot!
This shocked everyone! Nine Dao One trembled all over, and the Dog Emperor also shivered. This was both shock and excitement. Had that being truly returned? They were indeed invincible!
Beneath the abyss, behind the chaos, a sigh emerged, followed by the reflection of the Supreme Being's figure from moments ago. Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth. "Ultimately, my true body has been awakened." He felt regret and helplessness. He had been recuperating for endless years, not wishing to be disturbed, and truly did not want to awaken at this moment. But how could he not be alarmed when a strand of his Dao body had exploded?
Chu Feng's gaze was profound. The Supreme Being beneath the abyss was indeed terrifying; had he only just now awakened? The one who had acted earlier was not his true body! Nine Dao One and the Dog Emperor were also alarmed, their pupils constricting, but they quickly became fearless again. Above the stone tablet, dense runes formed a platform supporting a single foot, giving them boundless confidence.
"Has he returned? He must appear!" Nine Dao One's lips trembled as he spoke. This was the first time he had felt such a mixture of hope and fear, terrified that that being might not truly descend.
"Coordinates were left behind, and they haven't been erased for so many years. That's terrifying. However, I suspect this isn't your true return, is it?" Beneath the abyss, wisps of chaotic energy emerged. The true body of that Supreme Being silently appeared, yet he did not approach the stone tablet. It was evident how wary he was! If he hadn't revealed himself, one wouldn't have been able to sense his presence there through divine perception alone! This was a Supreme Being; if they didn't want you to perceive them or see them, you would remain unaware even if they stood before you.
"I... want to gather herbs!" the Dog Emperor whispered. This was a rare opportunity. Was that being truly returning? Taking advantage of this moment, as that being commanded Soul River and pressured all sides, causing Supreme Beings to hesitate, it was the perfect time to gather herbs.
"All of you, go!" Chu Feng spoke. He moved again, blocking the abyss, creating an opportunity for the Dog Emperor and the others. At the same time, he didn't want that Supreme Being to approach, because he still didn't know if the glowing stone tablet and the rune platform it formed could truly bear the return of that being.
The Supreme Being beneath the abyss paid no attention to the Dog Emperor, Nine Dao One, and the others, not even glancing at them. His gaze remained fixed on the foot on the stone tablet!
"Stop them! Don't let them get close!" Peacock Soul Mother shouted from inside the mountain. She had already risked everything; her eldest son was practically crippled, and she held an irreconcilable grudge against the Dog Emperor, Rotten Corpse, and others.
"Kill!"
The Dog Emperor, Rotten Corpse, and Nine Dao One went on a rampage, fighting desperately to reach the depths of the mountain and find the legendary life-saving panacea. The cliff was very high. After breaking through the cliff face with the Emperor Bell and battle spear, the interior was riddled with holes, overflowing with soul-substance, and the terrain was extremely complex. Of course, there were also countless native creatures of Soul River, densely packed, enemies everywhere.
Initially, Six-Headed Beast and others were wary, worried about Chu Feng's intervention, and even more terrified of the being on the stone tablet fully descending! Some leaders of Soul River continually retreated with their troops.
However, as time passed, they saw Chu Feng remain still and the stone tablet glow and condense a rune platform without further unusual changes. They finally couldn't help but fight back.
"What are you afraid of? We also have Supreme Beings, more than one, and they should all be coming. Kill!" Peacock Soul Mother secretly transmitted her voice, spreading her wings and soaring, her combat power shocking the world.
"What if there are many Supreme Beings? Do they dare to compare themselves to that being?!" Nine Dao One sneered, intimidating the Soul River creatures. Otherwise, the battle would never end; there were too many monsters here. In his hand, countless inscriptions appeared on the battle spear. Instantly, an inexplicable aura flowed, causing the cliff to rumble, crack, and collapse!
Now that the spear was no longer needed to summon that being, its full combat power was unleashed. He wielded it, slaughtering everything in his path! Li exclaimed, "Master, you've gotten a second wind, grown even stronger?"
Boom!
The mountain wall disintegrated, rapidly collapsing. Even the abyss below vibrated, rumbling loudly, black lightning interweaving, chaotic thunder exploding, and cracks spreading everywhere.
The Dog Emperor's face twitched. "Go easy! Don't destroy the great medicine inside the mountain!" It was truly worried. Had this battle spear been unsealed during the earlier anomaly? If it truly erupted completely and destroyed everything here, where would they find the great medicine?
Nine Dao One shouted, "Soul River creatures, those who block me die! Although limited by my own strength, I cannot completely wield this spear to stab a Supreme Being to death, but if you push me too far, killing all of you is no problem!"
In front, blood mist permeated. Massive numbers of Soul River creatures exploded, turning into pulp, turning into dust, all annihilated. The mountain body disintegrated, continuously collapsing, and the cliff walls surrounding the abyssal world became shorter, continuously falling.
The Black Dog was anxious, barking frantically. Enough, enough, almost all killed, hurry down to collect the medicine. In fact, Nine Dao One didn't want to do this either. He was almost drained by the battle spear, almost unable to move. Everything was beyond his control. Fortunately, limited by his own strength, he indeed couldn't stab a Supreme Being to death and couldn't activate the battle spear further. Its dazzling energy gradually receded.
However, the Soul River creatures were indeed thoroughly terrified. Seeing him press closer again, they all retreated, like a tide.
Suddenly, Peacock Soul Mother shrieked, "Don't be afraid! External objects are external objects after all; it's not his own power. Can he still activate it? This is the source of Soul River, our home ground! With Supreme experts holding the line, will we still be afraid of these old guys whose flesh, blood, and soul light are incomplete? They are merely fish who slipped through the net back then. Today, we'll wipe them out!"
"Heh heh..." Nine Dao One sneered, taking a step forward with his battle spear, forcing back the Soul River creatures. In an instant, a massive army was forced into a full retreat by him alone, almost collapsing.
Soon, the Dog Emperor and the others pushed deep into the mountain, searching for the great medicine. But upon reaching this place, Soul River creatures also showed great courage, with many fearless monsters, all extremely ferocious. Evil spirits charged over, beginning to block them. The mountain interior was too vast; it was a place more expansive than a true great world.
The Dog Emperor's nose was extraordinary; it wasn't merely tracking scent but also involved spiritual sensing. "I smell it! I've found it! Charge!" The Dog Emperor went mad. It had truly found the great medicine, sensing that it wasn't too far away.
Rotten Corpse also fought desperately, proving to be incredibly powerful. With a boom, black mist surged around him. He transformed into a giant, various Dao symbols burning, blasting everything in front of him. Faintly visible, he was missing a lot of soul light, yet he could still be this strong, which was truly astonishing.
At this moment, in a remote ancient land, within an obscure, dilapidated ruin of the Underworld, a creature opened its eyes. Across billions of miles of space and time, threads of energy transmitted, arriving at the source of Soul River! However, only threads of it came; otherwise, it would cause a shocking change.
Rotten Corpse cried out, "I feel like I'm about to ascend and become an Immortal Emperor, surpassing everything, comparable to the strongest beings of ancient and present times!" He howled, sweeping away all sorts of Soul River creatures in front of him. Soon, his face fell again as he sensed something. "Main Soul, you son of a bitch, are you really cowering in that inauspicious ancient land? But it seems you're incomplete again. You really did split off another small piece of soul light."
How to vent his anger? Only by suppressing and killing the monsters here. Rotten Corpse struck powerfully, making Peacock Soul Mother cough up large mouthfuls of blood and fall backward.
"Kill!"
Seeing this, the Dog Emperor was greatly encouraged. It shook its body vigorously, unleashing its powerful "Landing as a Dog" move again, which it had learned from the ape and the Sacred Emperor. Instantly, the ground was covered with black dogs, barking and roaring, tearing the void as they led the way, wanting to slaughter the Soul River creature army.
Nine Dao One truly looked like an old man, moving slowly, but each time he thrust his spear, he would pierce a leader-level Soul River creature to death, slaughtering with his special weapon.
Martial Lunatic, Tai Yi, and others grimaced, secretly shocked. When these old guys went crazy, they were truly terrifyingly powerful.
Tai Yi said, "Kill! We've come this far, there's no turning back. Even if we know there's a Supreme Being blocking the end, we must strike, we must fight with all our might." Then, the battle here went wild, everyone fighting fiercely at the source of Soul River.
Martial Lunatic used his wondrous temporal art, turning a section of Soul River creatures into dust, as if they had experienced hundreds of thousands of years in an instant. They went berserk! A group of people fought fiercely, truly shaking the mountain interior and collapsing many caves.
Li erupted, valiant and invincible! At this moment, he didn't resort to sneak attacks but fought openly and honorably, blasting enemies in all directions. He was incredibly brave, wielding immeasurable black light, and directly killed Peacock Soul Mother's disciple, the white peacock. In a sense, this white peacock was also Nine-Colored Soul Master's junior disciple! This scene shocked many, even Rotten Corpse and Nine Dao One were surprised.
"Ah..." Peacock Soul Mother howled, nine-colored auspicious light blooming, about to charge over. However, she was blocked by Nine Dao One, unable to advance an inch, nearly being pierced by that special battle spear!
Li panted heavily. "Did you really think I only resorted to underhanded tactics? If you don't believe me, ask that madman. In my prime, I dominated the world, sweeping away all enemies, never encountering a match!" The madman he spoke of naturally referred to Martial Lunatic.
Martial Lunatic was furious. "You're the black madman! Aren't you fighting with a mere obsession? Why haven't you dissipated yet? Why aren't you dead!"
Li slowly replied, "I cannot rest in peace, with too many obsessions that are hard to disperse. I think I can still split off a thousand more threads of obsession."
Only one word came to Martial Lunatic's mind for him: "Scram!" Martial Lunatic ignored him.
Just then, Li, wielding the Ten Thousand Mother Golden Seal, slammed another leader-level monster, causing it to explode with a boom.
Tai Yi's gaze was deep. "Ten Thousand Mother Golden Seal?"
"You're mistaken. This is the Ten Thousand Father Golden Seal; the Mother Seal is truly pressed under a coffin lid!" Li stubbornly denied.
Get lost! Tai Yi also just wanted to say those two words to him, not wanting to waste breath.
"Kill!" At this moment, the most ferocious was naturally the Dog Emperor. It felt that it was getting closer to the great medicine, almost at its destination. It charged headlong, slaughtering everything in its path. A great melee began intensely!
Even with its ultimate move "Landing as a Dog," the Dog Emperor was covered in blood, its fur matted, and its paws left bloodstains as it charged through mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
"Battle servant, kill for me!" It was truly tired from fighting and actually released a humanoid creature. It was a skeleton, its bones crystal clear.
Martial Lunatic's eyes immediately widened! He almost jumped up, his expression changing drastically. Who was that? It was his... master! He had heard his disciple's call earlier, and now it was all true: his dignified Martial Emperor master had truly been carried away by a dog, and now appeared before his eyes.
"Dog, release him!" he roared.
"Are you sick?" The Dog Emperor was bewildered. You're on the same side, why are you roaring at me?
"You raided my Daoist temple and stole my master's Dao bones!" Martial Lunatic's eyes were red.
Could it be such a coincidence? You won't trick me! The Dog Emperor blinked its large eyes.
Martial Lunatic was truly going crazy. Who could he reason with?
"Don't worry, I haven't done anything to him. On the contrary, he's borrowing my power to temper himself and fight bravely!" the Dog Emperor shouted.
"Borrow what power of yours?!" Martial Emperor roared.
"Haven't you heard of people relying on dogs' power?" the Dog Emperor shouted amidst the battle.
Martial Emperor wanted to hammer it to death. He had never heard of that saying; he had only heard of dogs relying on people's power!
The Dog Emperor howled, "Battle servant, go crazy! Battle servant, fight! I bestow upon you imperial divine might, fight with me, and victory is assured!"
Are you crazy? Martial Lunatic's face turned dark green, his expression contorted. He wanted to say, are you courting death?! However, seeing the Dog Emperor's current frenzied state, even picking up the broken Emperor Bell, Martial Lunatic stopped talking. He would reason with the dog later and reclaim his master's bones. Still, he felt a bitter taste in his mouth. So it was true; his master really had been carried away by a dog! He wanted to curse.
"Time reverses, Heavenly Emperor possesses my body, dog like heaven, devouring ancient and future!" The Dog Emperor was hysterical, fighting bloody here, roaring, "I stand in this world, I'll smash all your heads!" It rang the bell, slaughtering countless monsters.
Rotten Corpse also went on a rampage, but after a brief burst, he finally exhausted himself. With a thud, his rotten head fell to the ground and rolled away. Just then, he saw the white crow, still alive by some miracle, and said, "Duck, pick up my head for me, or I'll kill you!"
The white crow was enraged but also very scared. Its father, the Ancient Crow, had been killed, and it had narrowly escaped, finally condensing all its Dao fruits together. But now... although it was much stronger, it was even more terrified. It was mainly scared to death! In the end, under Rotten Corpse's roars and threats, it actually bowed its head, flapped its wings, and fanned the head back. Then it... ran away, extremely afraid of death.
"Hahaha..." Rotten Corpse laughed, took a brief rest, and then charged forward again, slaughtering.
"Found it! In this main cave, I see it! I see the medicinal herbs to save the Great Emperor, ahhh..." The Dog Emperor went crazy, roaring, ringing the bell to kill countless enemies, arriving at the ultimate destination.
Ahead was a lake, with dense soul light substance flowing outwards, forming rivers outside. On the shore was a patch of medicinal garden, containing all sorts of plants. Some were definitely immortal herbs, while others were beyond comprehension, with dazzling light and Dao patterns emerging. It was hard to imagine that this eerie source could also contain such sacred medicinal herbs.
Of course, upon closer inspection, one would also find that these so-called sacred great medicines were all more or less contaminated with wisps of ominous substance, making them unusable for ordinary creatures. The Dog Emperor couldn't care less. First, save a life, then dispel the ominous. It was determined to save the Great Emperor and restore his Heavenly Emperor body!
"Great Emperor, I'm about to do it! I've fought my way here to save you!" the Dog Emperor mumbled.
The bald man was also excited, trembling all over, seeing hope. If a Heavenly Emperor could be saved, even if everyone was at the source of the ominous, there would be nothing to worry about.
"Beware of the spatial formations, there are boundless killing tribulations!" the Dog Emperor warned. It was a top expert in this field, seeing through the illusions at a glance, carefully deciphering them.
"I'll do it!" Apparently, Rotten Corpse was also a professional in this area. After all, he had spent years underground, digging countless underground palaces and large tombs. Not to mention the extent of his research, his experience alone had accumulated to a heaven-defying level.
"Dig the medicine! I see sacred great medicine!" In the dazzling immortal light, within that medicinal field, three plants were very special. They looked like withered tree branches, or dead saplings, rooted in bloody soil. What immortal herbs, what body-refining treasures, what soul-nourishing ancient herbs—all were mere decorations, nothing in the Dog Emperor's eyes, completely ignored. It only stared at those three withered, branch-like herbs!
Legend has it that the highest quality of these herbs are nurtured by the blood and soul of the strongest beings, their miraculous properties immeasurable.
After careful observation, the Dog Emperor burst into crazy laughter. It was convinced these were real herbs, not illusions.
"Let me do it! This is delicate work, don't dig carelessly!" Rotten Corpse was also excited, rubbing his hands and shouting. He even had a sense of ritual, bathing and changing, washing his hands in a jade basin, putting on a professional Daoist robe, and preparing his special digging equipment.
Rotten Corpse laughed heartily, "I'm going to dig through the ultimate depths of Soul River! This is what I've always wanted to do, and today it's finally going to happen! Gathering herbs, archaeology!"
The Black Dog regained its composure. "Be careful, no mistakes this time!"
At this moment, golden patterns shimmered under Chu Feng's feet as he blocked the abyss. Although far away, he could clearly sense everything in the medicinal field. Even he felt envious. What level of herbs were those? If they weren't entangled with ominous substances, they would be even more perfect.
At this moment, Martial Emperor and others also breathed rapidly. There were few evolution elixirs here, but all were supreme treasures for nourishing the soul and refining the body. Furthermore, there were even life-saving ultimate herbs, such as the Nine-Turn Soul Revival Grass and the Heavenly Immortal Life-Extending Flower. This was truly incredible; an eerie source actually had such a medicinal field, astonishing people.
In fact, some plants were found in every cave. The only regret, the only thing that felt off, was that all the great medicines were more or less contaminated, entangled with strange substances. At this moment, even Li felt envious.
"These great medicines are from my family; they were left here back then," the Dog Emperor shouted.
Get lost! Some people wanted to roll their eyes.
"This item has a connection with this Emperor." The Dog Emperor broke through the spatial formation, entered, and dug up a great medicine. Rotten Corpse also stepped forward. They were both experts, leading the way. After only seven or eight steps, the ground was barren.
"That one is mine!" Nine Dao One shouted. He saw a well-known great medicine: the Fetal Bone Regeneration Grass. He wanted to be reborn with new flesh and blood, discarding the old flesh and Dao bones that had left. He wanted to separate and reshape himself!
"This item also has a connection with me!" The Dog Emperor dug with one paw, taking the entire plant, root and soil included.
"Get lost! What 'connection' do you have?!" Nine Dao One became anxious, rushing into the medicinal field, only to be cut all over by the spatial formation. If not for the battle spear blocking, he would have been in real danger.
"It really was planted by me. It's been an epoch. I never had the heart to harvest it back then, and then the medicinal field fell to this place!" The Dog Emperor said righteously, then reluctantly added, "But, we're not strangers. I'll test the medicinal properties later, and I'll split that great medicine with you!"
These were undoubtedly heavy treasures, all great medicines. Although the Dog Emperor mainly focused on the three withered herbs, it didn't waste anything along the way. Of course, this kind of sweeping, this "black-hearted" tone, was merely an instinctive reaction; it had always been so overbearing. But once the battle was truly over, it would still share some of the herbs with everyone.
At this moment, Chu Feng's eyes were blood-red like the moon. He truly couldn't resist making a move. What did he see? A Thirty-Three Heaven Grass! There was one here! This legendary great medicine, he had only seen one at the end of the reincarnation road, and he hadn't even caught it then!
Sure enough, this Thirty-Three Heaven Grass also tried to escape, but it was "dismembered" by the Dog Emperor, Rotten Corpse, and Nine Dao One. Each grabbed a section, cleanly dividing it. The three frowned. Such legendary great medicine should be full of spirituality, but here it wasn't as difficult to capture as imagined, most likely because it was too contaminated.
Martial Lunatic and others also followed, wanting to pick herbs.
"These were all planted by this Emperor, they all have a connection with me!" the Dog Emperor boasted.
You bastard, they're all mine! Chu Feng wanted to shout. He was the strongest combatant today, yet he was just standing by? However, he truly couldn't move; he was keeping an eye on that Supreme Being and the stone tablet, and at the same time, protecting the Emperor Corpse. He was afraid the Emperor Corpse would fall into enemy hands and transform into the most terrifying Dark Heavenly Emperor. So, he could only watch, suppressing the urge to drool.
"Mine, all mine!" Chu Feng wanted to shout.
Suddenly, the Dog Emperor lost control of its emotions and burst into tears, no longer shouting. It rushed to the very front, guarding the three special great medicines, its eyes blood-red, as if about to kill.
"These three have slightly inferior medicinal properties. There was originally a fourth, but it was picked and eaten!" Then, it went mad! There was a small pit there. Indeed, another special great medicine had been dug up, and the residual medicinal properties made the Dog Emperor realize that was the one it truly needed.
Looking closely, these special great medicines were all rooted in bloody soil, drawing nourishment from special substances!
"Ah..." The Dog Emperor went crazy, too unwilling, the endless disappointment almost making it collapse.
Rotten Corpse sighed, patting its shoulder, shaking his head. "Didn't you have some psychological preparation when we came here?"
"I'm still unwilling!" the Dog Emperor roared.
In fact, both it and Rotten Corpse had some psychological preparation. Even if Soul River didn't have that unique pill refining formula and didn't know how to refine this herb, once it matured, it likely wouldn't be left behind; it would be harvested and not allowed to flow to the outside world. Moreover, Soul River might not truly be ignorant. After all, their Supreme Beings were more than one, all unfathomable, and had encountered too many mysterious things, dabbled in everything.
The three herbs were plucked by the Dog Emperor. It put them away. Perhaps their medicinal properties weren't enough, but they were still useful. Maybe they could save a few fragments of the Great Emperor's soul light, who knew. With hope in its heart, everything could get better. It wanted to retain hope and await a miracle.
"Everyone, come back!" Chu Feng spoke. It was too dangerous; after all, a Supreme Being was watching intently. Although the Supreme Being in the abyss currently ignored the few people gathering herbs, it would be a huge problem if he showed any killing intent.
"Who dares to gather herbs in Soul River, now that my true body has awakened..." The Supreme Being in the abyss spoke. He was much calmer now, believing that the being above the stone tablet had not truly returned.
However, there are always surprises. At this moment, just as he finally moved and his true body appeared above the abyss, another large foot descended, stepping onto the rune platform above the stone tablet. The Supreme Being in the abyss had blood dripping from his mouth. He bore terrifying old wounds, and now, under the agitation of some inexplicable aura, a wisp of black blood appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Woo..." At this moment, he didn't hesitate. He took out a thirteen-colored conch shell, both stark white and deep black, each occupying half of the shell, and blew it. All heavens and myriad realms, various places, heard it. He was summoning the ancient Underworld. He was calling the creatures beneath the Four Poles Floating Earth. He was awakening the monsters beneath the Heavenly Emperor Burial Pit, gathering the ultimate powerhouses.
Furthermore, within the depths of the Soul River abyss, an anomaly occurred. Silently, a cocoon appeared, radiating immeasurable colored light, with thirteen or fourteen divine rings around its body!
For a time, terrifying creatures stirred in various locations. However, even the strongest fluctuations were disturbed by an astonishing aura. At the stone tablet, on the platform, a pair of feet solidified. And in that infinitely high and distant realm, it was as if a pair of eyes opened, like the most powerful chaotic lightning exploding, beams of light terrifying, suppressing all ominousness!
"It's better not to blow the conch!" a soft sigh came from within the cocoon beneath the abyss.
"I can't not blow it! My fate is determined by Heaven... not by me!" the earlier Supreme Being in the abyss spoke.
