Chen Chuhua was slightly dazed. She only recovered after a while, and her gaze became lively again.
"I'm fine …" She nodded at Chen Luoyang. "… Probably?"
Chen Luoyang said, "Your body should have changed. The rune light on your body just now did not truly dissipate. Instead, it temporarily quieted down and retracted into your body."
Chen Chuhua silently meditated for a while, then shook her head. "I don't feel anything. Instead, my body feels a little more relaxed, as if I have gotten rid of some invisible shackles."
She sighed. "Now, I should be able to quickly break through my previous bottleneck. The day of realm thirteen is just around the corner."
Hearing this, Chen Luoyang raised her eyes to look at the surroundings, at the black coffin.
Chen Chuhua's breakthrough into realm thirteen was fundamentally different from others' breakthrough into realm thirteen.
According to Chen Luoyang's conjecture, it should be said that after she became Emperor Wu, there was a world of difference between her and before she became Emperor Wu.
It was not because of her own cultivation, but because she could bear more pressure from the black coffin.
She could bear more, and the pressure her opponents had to face would be magnified many times.
In theory, that was so …
It was also the reason why she and Chen Luoyang took the risk on this trip.
But the change in the situation seemed to exceed expectations.
Especially what kind of connection Chen Chuhua had with this black coffin, it was something that one couldn't help but pay attention to …
"From my point of view, there are no other changes. It is actually the same as usual." Chen Chuhua said, "If there must be something different, it is that the person I saw after the coffin lid was opened seemed to be a little clearer than before."
Her eyes showed a look of reminiscence, and she shook her head slightly. "Unfortunately, I still can't see the specific appearance. I can just barely see that it is like a woman."
After hearing this, a series of thoughts flashed through Chen Luoyang's mind.
Is that your real body?
Or your past life?
Or you have thousands of clones, and this is a clone, and that is your real body?
Many guesses came one after another, causing Chen Luoyang to feel apprehensive.
"Let me see," Chen Luoyang said as he placed his finger on Chen Chuhua's wrist again to feel the movement of her vital energy.
There was nothing special …
Was it because she and the black coffin were of the same origin?
Chen Luoyang quietly withdrew his finger. He did not use the two mysterious edicts or the Black Mirror to help. He did not use the Black Pot either.
He didn't know anything about this coffin. If he made too many movements, he might end up exposing his secret to the other party.
"I really can't see much right now." Chen Luoyang looked at Chen Chuhua and said, "How is your relationship with this black coffin now?"
The black-clothed woman in front of him said, "From an active point of view, it doesn't seem to have improved much. From a passive point of view, I'm more accustomed to its existence, and the burden isn't so pressing anymore.
Chen Luoyang stood up. "Can you open the lid of the coffin and let us leave this world?"
Chen Chuhua closed her eyes.
The runes formed by the dim radiance appeared on her body again and covered her entire body.
Chen Luoyang did nothing but observe in Silence.
After the radiant runes circulated for a while, Chen Chuhua opened her eyes again.
This time, the runes on her body disappeared automatically without Chen Luoyang's help.
But the world in front of her did not change.
"Looks like I can't control it. There's no progress." Chen Chuhua shook his head. "I can't leave this place directly."
Chen Luoyang said, "It's okay. This trip was not in vain."
Chen Chuhua nodded slightly.
She understood what Chen Luoyang meant. He was not only referring to the improvement of her cultivation base to reduce the burden brought by the black coffin.
More importantly, by a freak combination of factors, they had brought the black coffin out from the hands of a certain person.
They didn't even know where the black coffin had landed after flying through the air, nor did they know who was suppressing the black coffin.
But as long as they brought the item out of that person's hands, it would undoubtedly be more helpful for them in the future.
"Speaking of which, that person just now …" Chen Chuhua was deep in thought.
Even through the black coffin, they could feel how terrifying that person was.
It was far beyond the imagination of the people in the Divine Land.
Because they had never come into contact with such a powerful existence before, and because there was no comparison, it was hard to describe.
Therefore, only the most intuitive feeling was left. It was terrifying and terrifying.
"It might be the Palace Master of the Black Water Extreme Palace," Chen Luoyang said.
Chen Chuhua looked at him. "Is it really the One Thought Divine Art?"
They didn't know this person, but they could recognize his martial arts.
The One Thought Divine Art was the famous ultimate art of the Black Water Extreme Palace, the holy land of the Demonic Path.
One thought could give birth to tens of thousands of techniques. It was mysterious and unfathomable.
The outside world was used to calling it the One Thought Demonic Art, and the Black Water Extreme Palace was also known as the Demonic Palace.
When Grand Elder Xie Chong went to the Ancient God of the Secular World, there were many restrictions. The information he could obtain was limited, but he still gained something.
However, a lot of the information seemed to be just gossip, and it was hard to say whether it was useful.
However, for the Ancient God of the Divine Land, there was no such thing as too much information about the secular world.
Xie Chong followed Chen Luoyang's instructions. Other than trying to verify the authenticity of the information, he sent back all the information he could gather, regardless of whether it was useful or not.
Some information that seemed useless at the time might come in handy in the future.
For example, now.
Xie Chong had obtained information about the Black Water Extreme Palace and the One Thought Divine Art by chance.
This was because the One Thought Divine Art had some similarities with the Ancient God's Boundless Nature Divine Art.
Therefore, there were people who mentioned it in the Ancient God of the Secular World.
The news was brought back to the Divine Land by Xie Chong. Chen Luoyang, Chen Chuhua, and the other higher-ups of the Ancient God of the Divine Land saw it, but they never thought that they would have to deal with the other party today.
"The Ink Sea, the Bone Mountain, and the Five Elements Formation. Three layers of seals, each with different principles and concepts." Chen Chuhua said, "When that person attacked again, it was also two completely different divine arts."
First, it was full of vitality to resist the black coffin's death aura.
Then, it used the Buddhist Secret of Reincarnation to fight against the Earth Netherworld.
It was true that the Ancient God also had many different divine arts, but when the owner of the palm attacked just now, there seemed to be some connection between the various divine arts.
In the process of suppressing the black coffin, because of the black coffin, Chen Luoyang and Chen Chuhua noticed the mystery.
"It should be the One Thought Divine Art," Chen Luoyang said.
"This martial art is even better than the Myriad Elephant Divine Art of our sect." Chen Chuhua nodded.
Chen Luoyang looked around at the dark void, thinking.
Just now, he could feel the strength of the opponent through the black coffin.
For Chen Chuhua, whose cultivation level was slightly lower, it was fine, but for Chen Luoyang, who was at the peak of Emperor Wu, to be able to exert such great pressure, it was not something that could be done by someone with a cultivation level or two higher than him.
Fortunately, there was the black coffin, or it would be difficult to scare the opponent away.
For the lineage of the Devil Palace to have such a strong cultivation, it was most likely that the Palace Master personally attacked.
In the Secular World, the Devil Palace was the holy land of the Devil Path, on par with the Bitter Sea, the Blood River, and the Ancient God.
The Palace Master of the Devil Palace was also a giant of the world, on par with the Hierarch of the Secular World's Ancient God, Emperor Chu, and the abbot of the Western Paradise.
This black coffin had been in the hands of the opponent for a long time. Would they use some special tracking method to find it again?
"Can you know what environment we are in right now?" Chen Luoyang asked.
Or rather, what environment this black coffin was in.
Chen Chuhua answered, "It's hard to determine the location, but it feels like we are buried underground."
Chen Luoyang nodded slightly, then communicated with the power of the first mysterious decree in his mind.
The concept of the Earth Nether appeared again, trying to communicate with the outside world through the black coffin.
He quickly realized that he seemed to be connected with the real earth.
Chen Chuhua's judgment should be correct. They were buried underground together with this black coffin.
Chen Luoyang tested it. His current control over this decree was not enough to pass through the black coffin and affect the outside world.
This black coffin was a fortress for them, but at the same time, it was also a sealed cage.
"It seems like we can't get out from here. Let's return to the Divine Land first," Chen Luoyang said.
As for whether the Palace Master of the Devil Palace would find them, it was useless to worry about it now. There was no need to think too much about it.
Chen Luoyang secretly held the second decree that looked like a bamboo slip in one hand, and pressed his palm directly on Chen Chuhua's forehead with the other.
Chen Chuhua immediately closed her eyes. Dim light flashed again, appearing on the surface of her body.
And a towering divine tree appeared in Chen Luoyang's mind.
Then, their bodies were enveloped by bright, warm, and vibrant green light.
This green light continued upward in the dark world, as if it was nurturing life in the extreme silence.
Here, life was constantly flowing away, swept away by the world inside the black coffin.
But Chen Luoyang still had the "Life" Heavenly Book to support him.
With the two working together and nourishing each other, this divine tree finally broke through the ground from the darkness.
In the real world of the Red Dust World, the black coffin was still sealed, and the lid could not be opened.
But Chen Luoyang and Chen Chuhua reconstructed an illusory path along the way they came, opening the "coffin lid" from another direction.
Then, they turned from illusory to real, opening a "secret door" in the Divine Land, and slipped out of the black coffin.
In the vast land of the Divine Land, Luoyang City, in an empty palace, a thick black fog suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
Then, a green light peeked out of the black fog, like a sprout of a tree.
Chen Luoyang and Chen Chuhua came out of the green light, stepping into the real world again.
Looking back, in the black fog, a faintly discernible coffin could be seen. The coffin lid suddenly closed, cutting off the green light, and then disappeared into the darkness.
"I need some time." Chen Chuhua's skin was still somewhat pale.
Chen Luoyang nodded. "I'll wait for your good news."
She needed time to sort out and stabilize today's gains, and at the same time, formally break through to the realm of Emperor Wu, and then adapt to the changes in the black coffin.
Watching the black-clothed woman's figure leave, Chen Luoyang's eyes slightly deepened.
But he quickly restrained himself.
A subordinate reported that Tu Shanyi of the Red Dust World's headquarters was requesting an audience.
Seeing this bald man again, he wore a solemn expression and bowed to Chen Luoyang.
"Holy Emperor, there's urgent news from the headquarters. Emperor Chu has finally taken action personally, and our Rosefinch Hall's first seat … has fallen."
