Hong!
An expanse of golden light surged like heavenly wings. A Kun Peng formed from symbols spread its wings and threw itself over from the upper reaches of the soul river, its power boundless as it attacked the dark light.
In that instant, the dark light in the lower reaches erupted, great dao chains interweaving, piercing towards the Kun Peng. It was as if a long blade that was burning red stabbed into the snow. Chi chi sounds rang out continuously, white mists rising.
This was an attack of order, a confrontation of the great dao. Radiance rushed into the heavens, making even the quiet soul river stir restlessly. Great waves overflowed into the heavens, countless soul figures appearing.
The creatures upstream were extremely powerful, stopping the world shocking attack of the expert in the dark light!
"I seem to have sensed a familiar aura."
The expert in the dark light stopped, no longer surging with killing intent. He said to himself softly, staring at the two terrifying figures in the mist.
This was the soul river, one of the sources of the world's strangeness. There were immeasurable dangers, and anything could appear here!
However, those that originally didn't exist reappeared, so this was a bit strange.
The two creatures walked over from the upper reaches of the soul river, their bodies like humans, not having the slightest trace of humanoid appearance. Their strange state was too horrifying, their appearances too terrifying.
One could see that they were humanoid creatures back then, still retaining a portion of their original characteristics.
However, could they still be called humans now? There was no way they could be anymore!
One of the creatures, apart from the two legs that were human legs, there was an arachnid body behind its buttocks. Apart from this, half a humanoid corpse grew out from its abdomen, the head connected to it covered in red corpse hair.
This was still only the lower half of its body. As for the upper half, it was even more complex, even more vicious than a malicious spirit, ugly and terrifying.
Its neck was extremely thick, full of tumors, and even its face was like this. Every single tumor was the size of a chicken egg, and there were even more scarlet eyes, sharp teeth, and other things on some of the tumors. This type of concentrated tumor gave one a type of terrifying feeling.
As for its original mouth, it was already slanted to the side of its left ear, and its lips were missing, revealing white bones and teeth. That area lacked flesh, the only place on its head that didn't have tumors. It was sinister and terrifying.
Above its head was a white worm that was as thick as an arm. It looked like a parasite, but also like a part of its true body. This worm's tail was rooted in the skull, its body wriggling about. It was covered in mucus that flowed down from its head, releasing an incomparably fishy smell.
Even from far away, it made people want to vomit. It was an unbearable smell.
As for this person's arms, chest, and other parts, they were all extremely abnormal. For example, there were dozens of extra upper limbs, and even more broken bodies, as if many special corpses were pieced together on its body.
Beside it, there was another creature. Apart from being slightly smaller, its appearance was even more terrifying. If it were to walk into the outside world, it would be enough to scare people to death.
The two creatures were different. They each had their own special forms, and their indescribable forms were completely different.
However, there was one thing that they all had in common, and that was their stench, ugliness, and negative aura. They were all top-notch, and no one would want to take a second look at them.
"Great Universe Grade!"
Downstream, the expert within the dark light sighed. Those two creatures had already grown to this state? Its appearance could not be described in detail with words. It was strange and ugly to the extreme. This was the most prominent characteristic of a peerless powerhouse who had successfully broken into the domain of the Great Universe Realm but ultimately failed and did not make it through.
There was no need to even think about it. To be able to step into this realm, no matter what their final outcome was, it meant that these two were once shockingly talented experts who could fight against an entire era.
It was a pity that this was the result.
This was the path of evolution. The truth was cruel, and there was no such thing as beauty and holiness. There were many corpses, inauspiciousness, and nightmares on this path.
The further they went, the more difficult the path became. There were even times when the path in front of them directly broke, and they could no longer continue. Otherwise, who would be willing to become like this? They were worse than ghosts, and living a life worse than death!
It was rare that the expert within the dark light was not boiling with killing intent. Instead, he was very quiet and looked at the two creatures with a somewhat complicated expression.
"Make your move. Let me see who you two are."
Too much time had passed. Although there was the aura of the Yang Realm, many years had passed after all. No one could say whether or not they had really met an old friend. Perhaps it was a senior from their sect, or perhaps it was just the corpse of an acquaintance that had been strangely lodged there.
"It seems that a peerless creature from the Yang Realm has come to find our roots. Could it be an old friend?"
One of the creatures actually spoke. It was no longer silent, and its voice was very hoarse. There was even a special spiritual fluctuation that made people feel disgusted.
"Has it been polluted to this state?" The expert within the dark light sighed.
The Soul River was one of the sources of all evil. It was the base camp of the bizarre and could pollute everything. Once the ultimate creatures fell here, they might become infected and walk on the path of no return.
"You're wrong. I'm not passively infected. I'm seeking new things and change. I took the initiative to offer sacrifices and found an ancient path that leads to the Soul River. I'm praying for it to accept me."
The creature that was a bit taller spoke. He didn't lose himself and still remembered many things from back then. Now, he was smiling, but in the end, his mouth that was crooked beside his ears revealed white bones. In addition to the tumors all over his face, it was truly too sinister and terrifying.
The eyes of the expert within the dark light immediately narrowed. His killing intent was like a heavenly blade as it cut through the void. It caused the waves of the Soul River to immediately surge into the sky, causing the entire riverbank to rumble. Countless yellow sand flew high into the sky. Immediately, countless soul shadows were stirred up, and wails resounded throughout this bizarre land.
"There really are people like this. They were originally born in the Yang Realm, yet they abandoned their own race and were willing to be polluted. They were entangled by the bizarre for a lifetime and fell to this vile land. Becoming stronger like this, evolving like this, what meaning is there? Abandoning one's own race, and one day, there will even be a further backlash. What reason do you still have to drag out an ignoble existence? Die! "
At this moment, the expert within the dark light took action. He was no longer the same as before and was ten times colder. Even the eyes within the dark light were different. They became a green-gold color, blazing and terrifying.
At this time, he reached out a hand and spread out his five fingers. Five beams of light flew out, and upon closer inspection, they were five types of heaven opening auras. There were countless symbols, and they constructed an unmatched wondrous technique.
"Five Elements Source?!"
That indescribable creature was astonished. It felt that it might have encountered an old friend, because this was a wondrous technique ranked within the top few of the ten great unmatched techniques.
This type of inheritance was difficult for other evolved beings to come into contact with. They were all exclusive to a clan or passed down by a single sect.
"The Heng Clan's old patriarch?!" That creature shouted.
The Heng Clan was known as the number one clan in the Yang Realm. How did they obtain this kind of status? Apart from the supreme breathing technique, the Heng Clan also grasped at least two kinds of unmatched techniques. Among them, the Five Elements Source was one of them!
Only the Buddhist Clan and the Dao Clan could stand shoulder to shoulder with them.
"You've mistaken me for someone else!" The expert within the dark light was incomparably cold and detached. He deduced this wondrous technique to the extreme and reversed the five elements to form the origin. He directly displayed the scene of the true epoch when the world was opened. That kind of heaven opening power surged over.
With a boom, he blasted the soul river in the vicinity and evaporated an unknown amount of "precious" river water.
However, that indescribable creature was fearless. He had already attacked during this process. That was a rich silver radiance which poured out from his ominous body. It was like a falling river of stars, but also like a river bursting its banks. It was majestic, vast, and boundless.
This was a type of ancestral substance, a corroded and polluted soul dao origin. It was too rich and could suppress all living beings in the world. Any creature had a soul and could be attacked by it.
"The so-called Ten Wonderful Techniques have long fallen behind the times. This is one of the countless secret techniques recorded at the end of the soul river. Kill!" shouted that indescribable creature.
It was very powerful. Its soulforce surged and ancestral substance pervaded the air. It truly wanted to crush all living beings with souls and suppress all the evolvers in the world.
Unfortunately, in the end, this kind of terrifying secret technique could only block the Five Elements Source. It couldn't block the fist that stretched out from the dark light!
Boom!
"Filthy thing, you dare challenge me? You half-human half-ghost bastard who even betrayed your own race! Die!"
This fist shook the world and evaporated who knew how many li of the soul river. Its power was too great. It caused the iron chains at the end of the soul river to ring out fiercely again as they pounded on the door continuously.
One had to know that this wasn't an ordinary place. Everything was confined and relatively speaking, it was very difficult to break through.
A single drop of soul river water contained a destructive power that was enough to wipe out many experts in the Yang Realm. But now, the broken river also broke souls. Great waves surged into the sky and disappeared as soon as they hit the sky. They were all melted away by the soul light of a true primal chaos deity!
Bang!
That Da Yu level monster rapidly retreated in an attempt to evade this fist, but it was simply useless. It couldn't evade, and the fist blasted into that indescribable being's body.
Pfft!
All kinds of smelly liquid splattered in all directions. That was the polluted blood and the special substance in the soul river. It carried a corrosive nature that could infect experts of this level.
However, the expert in the dark light was fearless. His body surged with countless runes that scattered everything.
"No!"
The indescribable Da Yu level entity screamed miserably. He didn't want to die, or else he wouldn't have taken the initiative to enter the soul river and rely on it. He had already fallen to this state where he was loathed by everyone and yet he still had to die?
"I said that I would kill all of you, so I naturally have to do it. Things like you are ranked at the bottom of the Da Yu level. I know who you are, and your death isn't to be regretted. You don't have the qualifications to be called a Da Yu level evolver. Die! "
The expert in the dark light kept his word and fulfilled his promise. He really wanted to kill the monster that climbed ashore in the Soul River of Death.
Boom!
The indescribable monster exploded, and its body and soul were completely destroyed. Even the source of pollution within its body was scattered.
A rain of blood sprinkled down from the sky as if the heavens were crying. Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. The great dao traversed, the river of stars hung upside down, and the golden lotuses of laws appeared and burned. There were too many strange phenomena, and these were the phenomena that should occur after a Da Yu level entity fell.
"A disgusting monster that can't even be called a Yang Realm creature is worthy of resonating with heaven and earth?! Everyone, retreat! "
The expert in the dark light was very tyrannical. He directly smashed his fist towards the sky and scattered everything. The rain of blood and the burning lotuses of laws collapsed and disappeared. The strange phenomena vanished without a trace.
The expert who had died had unexpectedly obtained a fortune and entered the Da Yu level. Although he was an existence at the bottom, he was still the founder of a certain sect in the Yang Realm. In the end, he had fallen to this state and abandoned his mother's race to seek immortality. Now that he had died so tragically, it was lamentable and hateful.
The expert in the dark light shook his head. He was angry at the lack of backbone and lamented the misfortune of the Da Yu path.
"Who are you?"
The expert in the dark light looked at the other creature. It was very strange. This strange monster actually didn't stop him and didn't attack from the beginning.
The two monsters had appeared together, but the one in front of him actually didn't interfere in the battle and just stared blankly as the monster from before was killed.
Especially now, it was actually trembling slightly. Its entire frightening body was trembling.
It was too ugly, and it was actually like this. It was astonishing.
However, it definitely wasn't afraid. It should be a type of intense emotional fluctuation.
"Is it … you? Is it really you?! "
It finally opened its mouth. It was a woman's voice that carried endless resentment and boundless disappointment. There was even a type of expectation and some kind of unconcealable joy.
This was a woman, but she actually had this kind of attitude.
She was trembling and trembling. She opened her bloody mouth and wanted to say something. Her heart was throbbing and her ice-cold blood was heating up. Her emotions from the past were all revived and she was filled with emotions.
However, she looked at herself and found that she was so ugly. From head to toe, she didn't look like a human at all. If others saw her, they would be frightened.
"NO!"
She screamed miserably. She covered her face and continuously retreated, continuously shifting her body. Step by step, her entire body trembled. She couldn't face that person.
The past passion, the past waiting and expectation, as well as the strongest tenderness, now turned into … coldness and self-reproach. She wanted nothing more than to immediately die. How could she meet him here? How could she let him see such an ugly appearance?
Back then, she was one of the most beautiful women in the world. There were busybodies who ranked her. She was known as the fourth most beautiful woman in the world.
But now, what else did she have? Strange, ominous, smelly, ugly.
She had once admired that man, but now that they met, she was actually like this. Her heart felt like it was being twisted by a knife. Tears of blood flowed out. She continuously retreated, step by step, as if she weighed a thousand jin. With a putong sound, she fell into the soul river.
She wanted to die. She wanted to end her own life. She didn't want him to see her ugly appearance. She didn't want to meet him in this kind of situation.
She had expectations, longing for the future. She wanted to see him, even if it was from far away. Even if she could only find him, only able to silently look at his back, that was fine.
But now, this beautiful expectation was shattered just like that. She couldn't accept facing that person in her current state.
"It's you …"
The person in the dark light knew who she was. Even he didn't expect it to be her. That once exceptional appearance was actually like this. Her entire person was withered, indescribable.
He naturally knew her -- Qi Zhen. She was once exceptionally beautiful, like a secluded orchid in a valley, otherworldly like an immortal.
How could it be like this?
Mournful cries sounded by the Soul River. The woman was in incomparable pain. She covered her ugly face, wanting to escape, wanting to commit suicide.
However, she didn't want to lose him again after just meeting him. She didn't want to be separated forever.
How many years had it been? She had always waited bitterly, hoping that she could see him again one day. When this day truly appeared, she felt so much pain and conflict.
"I searched for you for so many years, waited for you for so long. I was so helpless and scared. Why did you disappear? Where did you go back then …" She wept, muttering, feeling more and more grief. When they met again, it was actually in this type of situation. She truly didn't want this to happen.
She no longer backed up, no longer running. It was because meeting him really wasn't easy. She thought that this was already an eternal parting, that he would never appear in this world again.
Today, they met again in front of the Soul River. After being separated for so long, she wept. She was happy, but also heartbroken. She knew that he was still alive, still in this world. She was so moved she wanted to die. However, when she thought about herself, she felt so miserable she was about to go crazy.
"You … why are you like this?" The man in the dark light asked softly.
"I didn't degenerate myself, I didn't come here to seek survival. Back then, I was muddle-headed. I don't know how I ended up here." The woman wept loudly.
At this moment, she truly felt inconsolable grief.
"I wanted to die, but I was unwilling. I still wanted to see you one more time. That was why I passed my days in a muddle-headed manner. Perhaps it was because of my stubbornness that I didn't turn into rotten flesh, become tainted blood."
The woman wept. She looked at the man in the dark light in front of the Soul River, feeling endless pain and grievance.
She said softly, "Back then, your gaze was never on me. I was disappointed and hurt, but I wasn't willing to leave either. It was enough as long as I could see you from the distance."
The man in the dark light sighed. Back then, he only treated her as a little sister and never thought too much about it. At that time, she didn't mention these things.
"I thought that I could wait, that one day, I could travel together with you. However, you left too quickly, and I couldn't catch up. I wanted to speed up my cultivation, and later on, you married that woman."
"Was it that woman … who harmed you? Something happened to you, and you couldn't see her again."
"I cultivated with all my might. I wanted to step into the Great Universe Domain as soon as possible. I wanted to find you and bring you back, but I still felt that I couldn't catch up to your footsteps. I was too slow. Later on, I finally used a special secret method to step into the Great Universe Realm, but it was too urgent. I couldn't hold on, and in the end, I failed on this path and became like this … "
Qi Zhen wept intermittently, talking about her past and her urgency. She only wanted to do her best to catch up, to increase her cultivation, to find him, to find him.
"Later on, I was muddle-headed. I don't know how I fell here. Could it be that I'm already … dead? Only, my corpse has an obsession and a broken spirit. Is this … the truth? "
The woman suddenly stopped weeping. She seemed to have guessed her own state. She had died, and that was why she had come here. Now, she only had something to entrust her heart to, and she still wanted to see that person again. That was why her broken spirit hadn't scattered yet?
"Qi Zhen!" The man in the dark light spoke. He had long since lost his overbearing attitude. He walked forward, and his words were very gentle. "Don't be afraid. You're fine."
He truly didn't know these things. At this moment, he felt pain in his heart, as well as a sense of helplessness. When they met again, the seas had turned into mulberry fields.
"Don't come over, don't come any closer. I … am I dead? Only my remains are left. Am I being used by someone? You … just kill me. I don't want to become a source of contamination. Burn away a contaminated body like me! "
The woman cried and laughed. Then, she cried loudly again, feeling sad and sorrowful.
"I saw you. I am happy, but I am also sad. Why did we meet in this type of situation? I am so ugly, I have to … leave!" The woman shed tears and said, "My wish has already been fulfilled. Knowing that you are still here, still alive, I am already satisfied."
In that instant, she was about to break apart. Her entire body was covered in cracks. She wanted to destroy her own remains!
"No!" The man in the dark light stopped her. Divine light covered the sky, covering the woman, imprisoning her body. He brought her up from the soul river, bringing her to his side.
"Don't stop me. Becoming a source of contamination is something that no one has ever successfully reversed since ancient times. Moreover, I have long died back then. This is only my ruined spirit!" The woman laughed as she shed tears.
The man walked out from the dark light. His true body appeared. He calmly looked at her and said, "I will think of a way."
"I can't anymore." The woman's eyes carried tears. Her body was irreversible, undergoing terrifying changes. It was as if she was dissolving.
"Right, I wanted to watch the flowers bloom with you. It should still be there. I was muddle-headed after all, almost forgetting about these things."
While speaking, a peach branch appeared by the woman's chest. There were flower buds on it, ready to bloom. It was sparkling and brilliant, carrying a faint fragrance.
"It is an immortal medicine, an exceptional item among flowers. It doesn't evolve, but legend has it that it can bring one good luck. Perhaps it is precisely this that is protecting me, the ruined spirit not extinguishing, always existing in my remains."
The woman seemed to have understood something, speaking like this.
It was rumored that this was the ruined body of an immortal king, only a peach branch left behind.
A light sound rang through the air. Peach blossoms blossomed, sparkling flower petals filling the skies, fluttering down. An ancient peach tree void image appeared between the two, blooming with flower buds, sparkling and brilliant. Peach blossoms filled the skies, landing on their bodies.
At this moment, the woman's strange state quickly weakened. She actually revealed her past true body, her appearance returning, devastatingly beautiful. All of the strange symptoms disappeared.
She was clear like an immortal, graceful and elegant. However, she was quickly breaking apart, turning into a rain of light, dancing with the sparkling flower petals.
"Preserved until now, I finally saw it. Peach blossoms only bloom for one person …" The woman said while smiling and crying.
"Suppress!"
"Seal!"
"Immobilize!"
The man roared, his voice shaking heaven and earth. He was like an unmatched demonic god, wishing to make this woman stay!
In the end, everything disappeared. The flower petals fluttered about in the sky, scattering with the wind. In the end, he only grabbed a dim flower petal, everything else disappearing.
The man didn't release another angry roar, maintaining a terrifying silence.
Only after a long time had passed did he calmly speak, saying, "Are there any emperor weapons left in this world? I'll borrow them to use!"
Under this type of voice, all sides trembled, as if he was commanding the entire world. Rumbling sounds continuously rang out.
The riverside of the Soul River was also shaking. Then, the yellow sand in the distance flew up, and the riverbank collapsed. Fragments of the broken bell flew out and landed in his hand with a boom.
At the same time, in the sun river outside the Soul Light Cave, an item flew off from Chu Feng's body. It was precisely the long bronze piece he had brought out from the Taishang Forbidden Land. It was suspected to have fallen off from the bronze coffin, and now, with an explosive boom, it flew toward the Soul Light Cave in the next moment.
At the riverside of the Soul River, the man held the broken bell and the long bronze piece in his hand. With a single step, he reached the end of the Soul River.
Here, the sound of iron chains shook the heaven and earth, and a strange mist was flowing out from the crack of the door. It was extremely terrifying.
"Chi!"
The man carried his weapon and directly turned into a streak of black light. Unexpectedly, he entered through that crack and broke into the world behind the door at the end of the Soul River.
"Roar! You dare!" A beast-like roar was heard.
The man's voice was very cold. He completely exploded and roared, "I'll slaughter all of you!"
On this day, the Soul River was in great turmoil. A shocking event had occurred!
