"Wanxi …"
'Zhuang Chengqian' moved his lips and murmured.
But in the next moment, the surging Devil Qi woke him up from his temporary intoxication.
It made him realize that the person behind him was not the gentle and pure Song Wanxi, but the blood puppet true demon that had no self-consciousness.
Furthermore, he was the one who had personally created this appearance!
The white skeleton's power suddenly increased, and the blood puppet true demon could only respond with a corresponding outburst.
A flawless snow-white hand and a cold and holy skeleton fist began a fierce confrontation less than an inch in front of 'Zhuang Chengqian.'
The White Bone God had opened the ancient passage and could use the strongest body in the modern world to descend. It could unleash power that was far stronger than the previous few times.
The blood puppet true demon also had the power of a true demon, and in the ancient devil's lair, it had an innate advantage and would not be at a disadvantage.
"Is this the sacrificial gift you prepared for me?" The White Bone God's indifferent voice fell.
It was like a golden knife, like a jade axe, intimidating people.
But Zhuang Chengqian's heart was as firm as steel, and Song Wanxi's blood puppet did not know.
Song Wanxi's hand pushed outward bit by bit, which meant that she was constantly expelling the power of the White Bone God.
In the contest of power, the blood puppet true demon had the upper hand!
Finally, 'Zhuang Chengqian' shook off the terrifying power and could open his mouth again.
He had the urge to gasp for air after suffocating, but he tried his best to calm his breathing and firmly restrained the instincts of this body.
"A good gift is not too late," he replied without any expression. "If you can accept it, then take it away!"
The white skeleton's fist could not stop retreating, and it was being forcefully pushed back. But the soul fire burning in the hollow eye sockets was so calm that it was terrifying.
"I accept your kindness," it said.
When the first syllable of this sentence was uttered, countless pale light spots suddenly lit up in the entire lair.
When the first syllable was uttered, the countless pale light spots strangely gathered toward the lair that the white skeleton had crawled out of.
They gathered on a flat surface like a lid, covering the dark and bottomless lair. The pale light spots were orderly arranged like the stars in the sky.
Then, thin lines of light extended from the light spots, and the countless light spots connected together in a complicated, dense, and orderly manner. It was like a spider web, but more like a chessboard.
When he finished his sentence, on the chessboard condensed by the pale white light spots, pale white chess pieces fell down one by one.
Patter, patter, patter!
It was as if someone was playing chess, but there were only white pieces on the chessboard, not black.
It was as if a mischievous child had overturned the white chess basket.
The white chess pieces were placed round and round on the chessboard, and soon, they covered the entire chessboard. Pale white lights intertwined to form a single piece. It was cold and despairing.
Only Tian Yuan remained on the chessboard all by himself. It was dark and gloomy.
This was the external manifestation of a terrifying divine spell.
This was the Lifeless Tribulation!
The reason why he had chosen to descend so "rashly" upon discovering Zhuang Chengqian was, of course, not because he had not suffered enough.
Even the White Bone God wouldn't underestimate someone like Zhuang Chengqian or his schemes. After all, hundreds of years ago, his descent had been destroyed by Zhuang Chengqian.
It was also because of Zhuang Chengqian that he changed his control over the White Bone Daoist. He gave up on the cooperation of faith in the past and used a more forceful method. Before the White Bone Daoist had grown, he had forcefully descended, expelled the soul, and occupied the body. He had entrusted the process of the growth of power to the White Bone True Pill.
As for the pill being stolen by Zhuang Chengqian's grandson, Zhuang Gaoxian, a few hundred years later, and being expelled from the White Bone Sacred Body by Wang Zhangji and Zhang Linchuan, that was another kind of misfortune.
But for an existence like him, "misfortune" wasn't scary. It was normal for him to be rejected by the world if he wanted to become a god in the present world.
Zhuang Chengqian was scheming against him, but hadn't he always been scheming against Zhuang Chengqian?
The road to becoming a god in the present world was long and rugged. Fortunately, he had a long enough life and could play a game in hundreds of years.
If the time was calculated in one or two years, of course, those mortal ants would think that he had failed. But the game he had started a few hundred years ago wasn't over yet!
The skeleton opened its fist and grabbed the Blood Puppet True Demon's hand, bringing her flying backward and away from Zhuang Chengqian!
Under Zhuang Chengqian's control, the Blood Puppet True Demon reacted quickly. While wrestling with the White Bone Skeleton, she reached out to grab Zhuang Chengqian. But she missed!
She had clearly grabbed him, and it was impossible for her to miss, but she still missed!
The effect of the Lifeless Calamity wasn't in the sense of space or time. It wasn't even in the physical body or the soul. It was only in the sense of "self" and life and death!
The body occupied by Zhuang Chengqian had already appeared on the chessboard that covered the Nether Cave, falling down irreversibly.
The Tianyuan position was the eye of the Lifeless Calamity.
Falling down meant death. There was no chance of survival.
From the beginning of the plan hundreds of years ago, the White Bone God's ultimate goal was to establish a God Kingdom on earth and become a god in the present world. He would then control a power stronger than the Netherworld in the present world.
At that time, the chosen White Bone Path, Zhuang Chengqian, climbed all the way from a pawn to the position of the ruler of a country with his support. Then, he rebelled and destroyed his plan of descending into the world. The so-called White Bone God Kingdom was completely his, Zhuang Chengqian's, country. He stripped the White Bone Path cleanly.
How could he not have made plans? At the crucial moment, he made a move and descended upon the White Bone Godly Form, using his great power to fight Zhuang Chengqian and Song Hengjiang.
He used the Lifeless Calamity to set the date of Zhuang Chengqian's death and still wanted to use his body to descend into the world. But he changed it from voluntary to forced.
What he didn't expect was that Zhuang Chengqian would die the moment he descended, destroying his own physical body! This caused him to lose his vessel for descending into the world, and the plan of forcefully descending into the world also failed.
Even the White Bone Godly Form was injured in that self-destruction and had to return to the Netherworld.
He had always suspected that Zhuang Chengqian wasn't dead, so he tested him twice in the past hundred years. The consumption of frequent descending into the world was terrifying. Even for him, he had to repeatedly use the power that he had accumulated over a long period of time.
It was very extravagant, but for someone like Zhuang Chengqian, it was very necessary!
But Zhuang Chengqian never showed up, as if he was really dead. He knew nothing about everything in the world and was indifferent.
He could only temporarily put aside his suspicions and continue to wait for Zhuang Chengqian to appear while starting a new round of descending into the world.
Later on, in the open or in the dark, Zhuang Gaoxian, Du Ruhui, Wang Zhangji, Zhang Linchuan, Chongxuan, and Chu Liang, he announced his failure again. He was actually prepared to sleep again and use his long life to wait for the next opportunity.
But he discovered Zhuang Chengqian!
Why did he not hesitate and impatiently descend into the world when he discovered Zhuang Chengqian's existence?
Because the Lifeless Calamity from hundreds of years ago had not ended!
He could still trigger the calamity and use Zhuang Chengqian's existence to descend into the world again!
This calamity was indeed triggered by Zhuang Chengqian, but it was also the result of him not being willing to sleep and waiting for so long!
