It was as if he had been hit head-on by an ancient giant beast. There was no part of his body that didn't hurt. He felt as if his organs had been shattered, his bones and tendons had been torn apart, and his muscles, flesh, and skin had been damaged. His Qi and blood surged and seeped out of his broken muscles and skin. In just a short time, Chen Zong was covered in blood.
With a bang, Chen Zong's entire body slammed into the hard wall of the cave, smashing out a human figure. His body was instantly injured a second time by the huge impact. The moment he bounced forward, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, dying the area in front of him red.
He lay on the ground, bleeding all over, but his right hand was still tightly gripping the Heavy Dragon Sword. His arm was twisted, obviously broken.
Heavy injury!
It was just a casual blow, but Chen Zong had suffered an unprecedented heavy injury. It was as if his body had been shattered. An indescribable pain surged through his body like a tide.
Pain!
It hurt to the bone marrow, to the depths of his soul. It hurt so much that he couldn't breathe or think. However, he didn't faint. He relied on his incomparably strong willpower to stay awake and try to control the power in his body to stand up again.
But it was very difficult.
It was extremely difficult to even move a finger.
For the first time, Chen Zong's fuzzy consciousness told him that this was the first time he had suffered such a heavy injury. He was almost on the verge of death.
The Great Abyss King flew above Chen Zong and looked down at him from above.
"Not bad. You didn't die after taking a blow from me." The Great Abyss King nodded with satisfaction. "The strength of this body and the depth of its foundation are even greater than my original body. Don't worry. Once I control your body, I will use your body to reach the peak of Dao."
As the Great Abyss King spoke, he became excited. His eyes shone with an incomparably shocking light.
In the ancient war, the Eternal Ice Emperor's blow had made the Mystery Realm take shape. He, the Great Abyss King, had fought with strong enemies and was finally heavily injured. He opened up a small cave here to heal his injuries. Unexpectedly, his injuries were too severe. After setting up a trap, he passed away in the small cave.
Although the body was dead, the soul did not disappear. However, as time passed, if the soul was not replenished, it would slowly wear down and eventually disappear.
Fortunately, the Great Abyss King had once encountered a fortuitous encounter and obtained a Soul Nurturing Storage Ring. This Storage Ring was not an ordinary Storage Ring, but a special Storage Ring. Not only did it have an extremely large internal space, but it was also embedded with a tiny Soul Nurturing Stone.
The Soul Nurturing Stone was an extremely precious treasure of heaven and earth. It could nurture one's soul and slowly increase the strength of one's soul. In the end, it could cause one's soul to transform.
Of course, the Soul Nourishing Stone in the Great Abyss King's Storage Ring was too small, and the power it contained was relatively weak. Therefore, it could only slow down the loss of the Soul Body's power and weaken it to one-thousandth of its original power. Otherwise, even if it still existed, it would be extremely weak, like a candle in the wind that could be extinguished at any time.
Hidden within the Soul Nurturing Stone, the Great Abyss King's consciousness had been in a deep slumber this entire time. It was only awakened when Chen Zong arrived and attacked the storage ring.
Of course, there had been people who had entered in the past, but they could not pass the suspension bridge.
At that bridge, even Chen Zong, with his astonishing soul and will, had almost died, let alone others.
Since waking up, the Great Abyss King had been observing Chen Zong. The more he observed, the more satisfied he became. Later on, he even tried to test him and found that this boy's body was even more amazing than his own.
Of course, his original body was at the Saint Rudiment Stage, and not just any ordinary Saint Rudiment Stage. Naturally, it was not something Chen Zong could compare to. The Great Abyss King compared himself to Chen Zong at the same level before reaching the Saint Rudiment Stage.
At that time, he already had the idea of taking over Chen Zong's body.
After taking over a new and better body and completely controlling it, he would be able to cultivate again. In the future, he would definitely be able to achieve what he had in the past and even surpass it. It would not be impossible for him to break through to the Great Saint Realm.
The more he thought about it, the more satisfied he was. The reason why the Great Abyss King had severely injured Chen Zong was because he was worried that Chen Zong would have some tricks up his sleeve. Now that he was severely injured and had no strength to resist, he naturally allowed the Great Abyss King to do whatever he wanted.
With a flash, the Great Abyss King's consciousness rushed toward Chen Zong's head and disappeared in an instant.
Chen Zong had already known the other party's malicious intent, so he made a move. Unexpectedly, the difference in strength was too great. He was no match for the Great Abyss King at all. With just one blow, he suffered an unprecedented injury and was on the verge of death, unable to resist.
Now, the Great Abyss King's soul rushed directly into his mind, trying to devour his soul and take over his body. This made Chen Zong's hair stand on end and he felt desperate.
The crisis of death was imminent!
Chen Zong was powerless to stop it. He could only let the Great Abyss King's consciousness enter his Knowledge Sea.
Even though many years had passed and the Great Abyss King's soul and consciousness were no longer at their peak, they were still very powerful.
When a cultivator broke through to the Transcendent Realm, they would develop a Spiritual Sense. When they broke through to the Saint Realm, the Spiritual Sense would transform and become stronger. It could no longer be called Spiritual Sense, but Sacred Will.
There was a fundamental difference between Sacred Will and Spiritual Sense.
The Great Abyss King's remnant soul controlled the Sacred Will to condense a Sacred Will into a Spiritual Body. It was inherently very powerful.
When the Great Abyss King's Sacred Will entered Chen Zong's Knowledge Sea, Chen Zong had a feeling that his Knowledge Sea was too small to accommodate the Great Abyss King's Sacred Will and would be crushed.
But in fact, it was not that his Knowledge Sea was small, but that the Great Abyss King's Sacred Will was inherently very powerful. Although Chen Zong's Knowledge Sea was stronger and more stable than an ordinary Half-Saint, it could not be compared to a true Saint Realm expert.
Inside his Knowledge Sea, the wind and rain were blowing, as if the end of the world was coming.
In an instant, Chen Zong also condensed his Spiritual Sense Body. As soon as it appeared, his Knowledge Sea immediately calmed down. After all, this was his Knowledge Sea, his home ground, and it was under his control.
Chen Zong's body was severely injured, and he could barely move, but his Spiritual Sense and soul were still intact.
Seeing Chen Zong condense his Spiritual Sense Body in an instant, the Great Abyss King was a little surprised. This boy had once again exceeded his expectations.
But the more it was like this, the better. When he devoured his opponent's soul, he could recover more and faster.
"Break!"
In his Knowledge Sea, the Great Abyss King's Sacred Will was like a high and mighty god controlling everything. He pointed a finger. The finger sealed the sky and locked the earth with a terrifying power. It was like the finger of a god crushing an ant. It blasted toward Chen Zong's Spiritual Sense Body.
"Slash!"
Chen Zong looked solemn and cold. With a thought, the Sword of Spiritual Sense condensed in his hand out of thin air, and a trace of sharpness spread out.
He swung the sword and slashed.
Inside his Knowledge Sea, he was more flexible, and the power he could use seemed to be more powerful.
The power of this sword was still not as powerful as the Great Abyss King's finger, but this sword was more exquisite. It seemed to be free from the shackles of the body, and became more mysterious, more agile, and more free.
Chen Zong suddenly had a strange feeling when this sword was slashed out. Traces of spiritual light suddenly appeared, and he had a brand new understanding. However, the spiritual light was too fragmented, and Chen Zong was fighting with the Body of Sacred Will of the Great Abyss King. He didn't have the spare energy to comprehend it.
Fight!
The Great Abyss King was more and more shocked when he saw that his finger had not only failed to defeat his opponent, but also that his opponent's sword had found a gap to attack him.
A genius!
A monster!
In the ancient times, such a talent would have been famous in the world. He was much better than the Great Abyss King of the past, and could even reach the Emperor Realm.
In the ancient times, Emperor Realm geniuses had a high chance of breaking through and becoming a Supreme Saint.
If the Great Abyss King occupied this body, he would be able to break through and become a Supreme Saint and stand at the top of the world.
Thinking of this, the Great Abyss King became more and more excited. He pointed his finger again. This time, the power of this finger was stronger, and the Knowledge Sea seemed to be on the verge of collapse.
Chen Zong attacked again.
This time, the light of the sword was more intense, but it was still a little scattered and confused because he did not have enough time and energy to think about it.
He used all his strength to explore himself, and attacked again and again.
The pressure from the Great Abyss King was too strong, and it was getting stronger and stronger. It seemed that the Great Abyss King was also angry, and Chen Zong's spiritual consciousness was being consumed more and more.
However, this kind of consumption also made Chen Zong feel extremely satisfied.
He did not have the deep sense of helplessness that he felt when he fought with his body.
The more they fought, the more surprised the Great Abyss King was.
Tenacious!
This boy was too tenacious, so tenacious that even the Great Abyss King was horrified and terrified.
One could imagine how much trauma he would suffer if he was born in the same generation as this boy.
This feeling involuntarily reminded the Great Abyss King of the ancient times. He and the Ancient Ice Emperor were of the same generation, but unfortunately, the Ancient Ice Emperor had become a Supreme Saint, while he was only at the peak of the Saint Rudiment Realm, not even a half-step Supreme Saint.
Not only that, when they were in the same realm, he had also fought the Ancient Ice Emperor, but he was no match for him at all.
It was a fundamental difference.
It was a difference that no matter how hard he tried to catch up, he could only look at the Ancient Ice Emperor's back.
It was a regrettable difference that he could not make up for even if he was wounded and killed in a fierce battle with a strong enemy.
But now, the Great Abyss King saw hope. He saw the hope of surpassing himself, the hope of catching up and even surpassing the Ancient Ice Emperor. And the hope was right in front of him, right now.
Thinking of this, the Great Abyss King decided to use all his strength.
The reason he did not use all his strength before was that it would consume too much of his strength, and he was unwilling to do so. After all, every time he used up his strength, he would have to spend a lot of time and energy to make up for it.
However, Chen Zong's body of spiritual consciousness was too tenacious, so he had no choice but to use all his strength.
When he used all his strength, Chen Zong's body of spiritual consciousness suddenly trembled, and cracks appeared in his Knowledge Sea. Immediately, the Great Abyss King pointed a finger. This finger seemed to be done casually, but the space under the finger cracked and black cracks appeared. It was a shocking sight.
An indescribable throbbing rose up uncontrollably, as if this finger would shatter his body of spiritual consciousness. There was no way to resist it. At that time, his broken spiritual consciousness and soul would be devoured by the other party, completely disappearing from the world. Then, his body would be taken over by the other party, and he would be completely controlled by the other party, living in his own appearance in the world.
