“Tang Zhan? It doesn’t matter.”
“Anyway, everyone is already dead.”
Tang Zhan’s arrival did not cause much of a stir.
“You… are all dead?”
A hint of surprise flashed in Tang Zhan’s eyes.
“You don’t know yet?”
Old Zhang stepped forward and said, “All those who die will appear here. Lord Huajian said that as long as we Cultivate well, there will be a chance to return to reality in the future.”
“Return to reality?”
Tang Zhan’s sharp gaze swept over everyone.
This Corpse Disassembly Immortal was actually collecting dead Souls?
This ability… was simply inconceivable!
“Interesting…”
A curve appeared at the corner of Tang Zhan’s mouth.
He no longer paid attention to Old Zhang and the others, raising his head to look, his gaze locked on the core of that crimson mist sea…
That shadow still stood tall and mighty!
“The Outer God underground is already at the end of its rope, not far from death.” Tang Zhan strode towards the giant shadow, “Now, it’s your turn.”
He slowly raised his hand, and a long blade appeared in his palm.
This was condensed from Mental Energy.
“If I weaken your power…”
A hint of excitement flashed in Tang Zhan’s eyes, “To make you both perish together at the last moment, such a meritorious deed… is worth me gambling my life for!”
He stepped forward and charged fiercely!
“You will die.”
A calm voice echoed in Tang Zhan’s mind.
Xuan Hao slowly condensed from the blood mist.
He was still in his dark green long robe, with ink-black hair draped over his shoulders, and his eyes were indifferent, as if looking at an overestimating ant.
“Death is not scary.”
Tang Zhan’s charging momentum did not diminish in the slightest, a crazy flame burning in his eyes, “To be able to bury two Outer Gods in one fell swoop, what does death matter? Besides…”
“I might not necessarily die!”
His mouth split into a grin, a smile full of Battle Intent.
“You want to stop me?” The blade pointed directly at Xuan Hao, “If so, then I’ll kill you first!”
“No need.”
Xuan Hao’s voice remained calm.
As soon as the words fell!
“Buzz!”
At the core of the mist sea, that huge Primordial Spirit, which had been silent all this time, its crimson left eye opened!
Cold! Indifferent!
Like a giant spear piercing through the Soul, it instantly locked onto Tang Zhan.
Divine Sense. Myriad Phenomena Forest!
“Boom—!!!”
An indescribable Mental Energy impact, like billions of stars exploding simultaneously, instantly engulfed Tang Zhan.
There was no sound, nor any movement.
But in Tang Zhan’s perception, the entire world collapsed before his eyes, rapidly shattering.
Countless chaotic, incomprehensible forces surged into his consciousness.
“What?!”
Tang Zhan’s mental defense, his proud A-level martial artist will, was as fragile as a candle in a strong wind before this vast power.
“Buzz—!”
Tang Zhan’s charging body froze.
The Mental Energy long blade in his hand vaporized instantly, like ice thrown into a furnace.
His body and spirit body shattered inch by inch like glass.
With just an indifferent glance from Xuan Hao’s Primordial Spirit, an A-level martial artist was annihilated silently.
The Mental Energy Domain returned to dead silence, and the mist sea calmed.
The Primordial Spirit turned its head, as if everything that had just happened was merely flicking away a tiny speck of dust.
…
Chenxi City, unknown base.
On the specially made metal recliner, Tang Zhan suddenly opened his eyes.
“How terrifying…”
He gasped violently like a drowning person, his face ashen white.
“How is the situation?”
Rose, who was guarding nearby, asked.
Tang Zhan did not answer. He tremblingly reached for his chest.
“Clang.”
Glass shards fell to the ground.
This was an ancient relic he wore, an antique-looking Eight Trigrams bronze mirror carved with profound runes.
Now it was shattered, slipping through his fingers.
“Instant kill.” Tang Zhan’s voice was hoarse.
“If it weren’t for this ancient relic, the ‘Soul Suppressing Ancient Mirror,’ I might have already died. No, I definitely would have died.”
Tang Zhan’s face showed fear and a deep sense of powerlessness.
He looked up, full of frustration:
“This Corpse Disassembly Immortal is far more terrifying than we imagined. The Outer God underground, I could at least contend with for a few moves, but it…”
Tang Zhan pointed to his chest, saying bitterly:
“Just a single glance!”
“Across the Mental Energy Domain, it almost caused my Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering. Its authority is very clear: it’s an incomprehensible Mental Energy, and our Martial Artists’ defense on the mental level is precisely our biggest weakness.”
As the words fell, the room fell into a dead silence.
Rose clenched her fists, her face turning extremely grim.
She knew Tang Zhan’s strength very well.
An A-Level Peak Martial Artist, with that rare ancient relic, couldn’t even withstand a single encounter?
The terror of the Corpse Disassembly Immortal once again refreshed their understanding.
“Is there no solution?”
Rose frowned, very unwilling.
Tang Zhan said, “This time I also gained a lot of information. This Corpse Disassembly Immortal is indeed in the process of gestation.”
“The reason it is so terrifying is because its authority is ‘spirit.’ If it were in reality, I would not fear it.”
“It’s just a pity…”
Tang Zhan shook his head helplessly.
Rose also sighed softly.
The biggest problem now was that they couldn’t find the Corpse Disassembly Immortal in reality.
Even if they could find it, it could possess someone and slip away.
This was almost… unsolvable!
This was a BOSS-level Outer God, incomprehensible, undefendable.
“Uh!” Without warning, Tang Zhan’s body suddenly shook, as if struck hard by an invisible heavy hammer.
“What’s wrong?”
Rose frowned, only to see the color rapidly drain from Tang Zhan’s face, his pupils suddenly contracting due to extreme horror.
“No!”
A roar, suppressed by fear, squeezed from deep within his throat.
“It…”
“Its power is still here!”
Tang Zhan was terrified, his body trembling continuously.
He was not afraid of death.
But this kind of death was unacceptable to him.
The power of this Corpse Disassembly Immortal, not even an ancient relic could block it.
The next second, Rose watched with wide eyes…
The air in front of Tang Zhan’s eyes began to distort like a wax figure under high temperature. That was not a physical heatwave, but rather…
Direct erosion from a higher-order power!
It was the power of that Corpse Disassembly Immortal, ignoring the barriers of reality, penetrating through.
“Tang Zhan, you…”
Rose’s voice was caught in her throat.
It was too late!
Tang Zhan’s pupils were completely swallowed by a dazzling crimson.
That blood color was not congestion, but a kind of cold will, a power of higher status, directly dispersing Tang Zhan’s Soul.
Immediately after, the light in his eyes, like a flickering candle in the wind…
Suddenly extinguished!
“Boom.”
The heavy body lost all support, falling straight onto the cold ground, without a sound.
“Tang Zhan… died?”
Rose froze in place, a bone-chilling coldness rising from her feet to the top of her head, even her fingertips trembling slightly.
She had faced the Corpse Disassembly Immortal directly, even clashing with it.
At that time… it was strange, but still within the realm of understanding; it could be fought, defended against, and even its possessed body in the real world could be killed.
But how much time had passed?!
It could now, across space, instantly obliterate an A-level martial artist like Tang Zhan, who stood at the Peak of human martial power.
This was no longer a difference in power, but a crushing blow of dimension!
She suddenly remembered a saying.
Gods cannot be looked upon directly!
The degree of the Corpse Disassembly Immortal’s revival had already reached a desperate state.
“Perhaps only an S-Class Martial Artist, no, only a Saint, can contend with it.” Rose despaired.
