What to do... what to do...
Princess Shile was anxious, in a hurry!
Suddenly, the sounds outside the door disappeared.
"It's gone?"
Princess Shile's eyes were fixed on the door.
The next moment, like a death knell, a frantic knocking sounded again.
"Bang bang bang!"
"Bang bang bang!"
With immense force, Princess Shile's door trembled, making her feel as if her room door was about to be destroyed.
"Hiss hiss—"
A hole was poked through the window paper.
Beyond the hole was endless darkness.
Princess Shile suddenly felt uneasy, her body chilling.
She saw a pair of terrifying eyes peeking through the hole in the paper window!
Staring at her!!!
Princess Shile was certain that those were not the eyes of a living person.
Ghastly white, cold, and sinister!
Her teeth chattered.
"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!"
Princess Shile's breathing was rapid, her fingers trembling, her heart pounding.
What to do! What to do!
After staring at her for a moment, the terrifying eyes slowly disappeared into the darkness.
After those eyes vanished, Princess Shile gasped for air, realizing she could move her body.
Was this a good thing or a bad thing?
Her palms and soles were covered in sweat.
Had the ghost left just like that?
"Scratch—scratch—scratch—"
The sound of fingernails scratching wood was piercing and uncomfortable. Princess Shile instinctively turned her head to look.
She saw a pair of ghastly white hands with thick, black fingernails by her bed, scratching through the paper window, reaching out to grab her.
"Ah!"
Princess Shile screamed in terror, shrinking to the corner of the bed, away from those hands.
"Drip! Drip!"
The sound of dripping water came from under her bed. A head slowly emerged from beneath her bed. This time, Princess Shile clearly saw what it was.
It was an old man with a face full of wrinkles like ravines, and beneath his ghastly white, terrifying eyes was a ferocious, sinister smile that made Princess Shile's scalp tingle.
Those ghastly white hands with thick, black fingernails slowly covered her face!
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!"
...
Yidu.
In an elegant manor, on a pavilion by the lake.
Chen Jiuyang and Qin Yourou sat opposite each other.
When Chen Jiuyang and Qin Yourou discovered that they were both in Yidu, Chen Jiuyang's Yan Sheng Saber traced a circle in the sky, locating Qin Yourou. Chen Jiuyang invited Qin Yourou to meet.
After discussing information about the dream world, Chen Jiuyang frowned: "Yourou, you mean that cultivating here can bring your cultivation back to the real world?"
If that were the case, Chen Jiuyang couldn't help but suspect that the long-lost demon race was indeed hidden in this dream world.
Qin Yourou nodded slowly and said, "Cultivating in the dream world does not trigger heavenly tribulations."
Chen Jiuyang felt it carefully. In this dream world, not only were there no heavenly tribulations, but there were also no restraints from the universal heavenly lock.
If this were the case... with the Pure Yang Medical Immortal's cave dwelling he inherited, could he mass-produce cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage or even the Venerable realm?
If it weren't for someone like Qin Yourou from the Kunlun Holy Land, how would the outside world know such secret information?
Even the Nine Sects of the Demonic Path had not left such information for posterity.
Qin Yourou continued, "This dream world was generated by the existence that fell at Meteor Immortal Cliff..."
"That existence did not completely die and is suppressed at Meteor Immortal Cliff."
"But be careful not to approach that coffin, as you will be eroded by the overflowing laws and degenerate into a foreign demon."
Chen Jiuyang's mind began to stir, and he sighed.
He finally knew who to look for.
The great immortal who fell at Meteor Immortal Cliff was a great immortal from the Immortal Realm, and Patriarch Qing Jue had told him to come for an opportunity to ascend to the Immortal Realm.
No matter how he calculated it, he should be looking for the great immortal suppressed in the coffin.
Chen Jiuyang looked at Qin Yourou and said, "You seem to be close to advancing to the Nascent Soul stage."
Qin Yourou nodded slowly and said, "Yes, I have reached the peak of the Golden Core stage. Once I find my senior sister, I will be able to advance to the Nascent Soul stage, leave this dream world, and return to Kunlun for quiet cultivation."
Chen Jiuyang's heart suddenly moved, and he asked, "Yourou, do you know where the ancestors of the Five Great Holy Lands ascended to the Immortal Realm?"
Qin Yourou slowly shook her head and said, "I don't know. Within Kunlun, only the current Holy Lord possesses immortal artifacts that can communicate with those ancestors across realms."
Chen Jiuyang nodded slowly, then moved his spatial ring. A large quantity and variety of medicinal herbs, as well as several immortal herbs, appeared before Qin Yourou.
Qin Yourou was stunned by the rich medicinal fragrance before her: "Jiuyang, where did you get..."
Chen Jiuyang smiled and said, "Yourou, please accept them. I owe you a great deal."
Qin Yourou giggled and said, "Then I won't be polite and will accept them."
The priceless medicinal herbs were collected into Qin Yourou's spatial ring.
...
"Boom!"
Above Meteor Immortal Cliff.
The blood-stained cliff, the coffin carved with numerous ancient runes, was locked by golden chains from the void.
A lightning bolt tens of thousands of feet long struck down from the sky. The majestic power of the heavenly tribulation swept across the entire cliff. Strands of lightning arcs entered the universal heavenly lock, while the remaining tribulation power filled the rune power.
"Swish swish!"
The coffin trembled, and terrifying blood-red runes appeared on the coffin, attempting to break through the sealing array, causing the golden chains to vibrate.
With each impact, the golden chains and the dormant ancient runes began to flicker and brighten.
With every collision of the coffin, a bolt of lightning descended from above the cliff, striking the coffin.
Time and again, soon, the entire coffin was suppressed.
At the same time, countless corrupted foreign beings in the bloody rain of Meteor Immortal Cliff gathered towards the cliff.
There were foreign beings as small as fingernails, and others as large as mountain peaks. They all crossed the rain curtain and stepped onto the dry ground outside the cliff.
All the foreign beings' gazes fell upon the coffin on the cliff.
At this moment, the physical bodies of Demon Lord Yuan Wu and Demon Lord Bing Huang, their eyes closed as if in slumber, pierced through the rain curtain and descended here. A violent aura emanated from them, clearly indicating that they had been eroded by the strange laws of Meteor Immortal Cliff. The extent of their erosion was unknown.
Qin Yourou and Wang Jiguang, whose physical bodies were hidden underground, were now emitting sacred light, resisting the strange laws of Meteor Immortal Cliff.
"Roar!!!"
The countless foreign beings numbered in the tens of thousands. Such terrifying power was enough to destroy a country, yet at a certain moment, they suddenly charged towards the cliff.
Shouting two words.
"Shile!"
"Shile!"
"Shile!"
The tribulation clouds above the cliff suddenly surged, descending lightning that struck these countless foreign beings.
As each foreign being died, dense black mist drifted from their bodies and surged towards the physical body of Chen Jiuyang, who was in slumber. Above Chen Jiuyang's physical body, there was a terrifying vortex black hole, devouring this black mist.
