"Coffin Heavenly Emperor"
Central Plains.
The appearance of Ye Fan, Pang Bo, and Xiao Nannan caused a sensation, because they were still alive and even dared to show their faces despite being wanted and hunted by many holy lands.
"Aren't those the Saint Body and the others? Despite being hunted down by the entire Big Dipper, they've actually reappeared!"
"No way, they actually dare to show up like this so brazenly? Aren't they afraid of dying?"
"Last time, one of the kings died. This time, the Azure Heaven Hegemonic Body isn't with them. With just a few of them, they're doomed."
The Central Plains are vast and boundless, a land of outstanding people and Ye Fan. Ye Fan and his group had only just arrived in a populated area when they sparked a heated discussion among the people.
"Is that Azure Heaven Hegemonic Body really not with them? Are you really sure? Don't forget how that king of the Great Xia Dynasty died! Who among you is willing to go and try?"
"Let's leave it to those holy sites. I'll go report the news first and collect the bounty!"
Everyone was paying attention and discussing it. The news that the people who extorted the Holy Land were still alive and that someone had seen them spread like wildfire.
"This kid is the Primordial Sacred Body of this Lifetime? He's got some nerve! Being chased like this, he still dares to wander around. Even the Great Emperor wasn't this arrogant back then!" A Big Black Dog with a bald tail in the mountains not far away looked at Ye Fan, its eyes darting around. "Damn it, I have a feeling this kid has bad intentions?"
Since its birth, the Big Black Dog has heard countless news about the Primordial Sacred Body from the outside world. With the desire to see the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo, it has been trying to get close, but it has never been able to find any trace of the Primordial Sacred Body.
"This kid is definitely no good. I'll follow him and see what happens. Maybe I can catch him in the act!" The Big Black Dog's eyes darted around, and a lewd smile appeared on its face as it stealthily followed behind.
Several days later, Ye Fan, Pang Bo, and Xiao Nannan arrived at Green Cliff Mountain in Central Plains, and at this time—
"A major event has occurred! The king of Jiuli has been mobilized!"
"The Holy Lord of the Jiang Family from four thousand years ago is still alive and has also set off to come!"
"The Yaoguang Holy Land soared into the sky; rumors are circulating that their powerful forces have been mobilized!"
Countless messages spread, causing one sensation after another. Many cultivators eagerly awaited the arrival of the supreme sects of the Central Plains, the supreme dynasties, and the holy lands of the Eastern Wasteland.
"Let's go and see, maybe we'll witness a major battle."
"Indeed, we cannot miss such an important event!"
"The Tragic Song of the Primordial Sacred Body, alas, of all people to offend, why did they have to provoke the Great Sage?"
Many onlookers, driven by gossip, followed after them, eager to witness the impending battle. Many felt that the Saint Body and his group were in grave danger.
Finally, they caught up with Ye Fan and his group, but they were also given a big fright.
More and more figures appeared in this space. Not only did cultivators from Jiuli, Jiang Family, and Yaoguang Holy Land arrive, but many powerful figures from the Tai Xuan Sect and Western Desert Buddhist Sect also rushed to the scene.
This was an unimaginably vast force, with countless figures occupying most of the sky. The leaders were all kings, and they were there solely to annihilate the Primordial Sacred Body and its companions.
"You little bastards, we've finally waited for you today! Where is Zhou Tong? Tell him to come out right now!" The Great Xia Emperor looked at Ye Fan with an unfriendly expression.
"Your Imperial Lord, there's no need to say anything more to them. Let this old woman capture them, search their souls, and then take their lives. There's no need to waste so much time." An Old Woman with a cold face strode forward.
"I only want the body of the Saint Body. I'll grind his bones to dust. Please have mercy and leave him with a whole corpse!"
They treated Ye Fan like meat on a chopping block, his life and death entirely under their control. They didn't see him as a difficult task at all, and their eyes showed contempt.
At this moment, the killing intent they exuded was terrifying, making Ye Fan feel immense pressure and causing him to involuntarily frown.
"Don't bully big brother..." The Xiao Nannan hugged Ye Fan, her big eyes filled with tears, very worried.
"Don't worry, Nannan, they're nothing." Ye Fan smiled, a peaceful smile on his face, to comfort the little one and tell her not to worry.
"Buzz!"
The Old Woman beside the Great Xia Emperor stepped forward, causing the Void the Great to tremble and making it difficult for Ye Fan Pang Bo to breathe.
"Damn it, Dao Self see wrong earlier? This kid isn't really going to die like this, is he?!" The Big Black Dog in the distance said with some doubt.
"Damn it, the Saint Body and the Dao Embryo Lifetime and on the same star. This kind of opportunity is once in a thousand years. The Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo have not yet been born. The Primordial Sacred Body cannot die like this!" The Big Black Dog immediately took action.
A large quantity of materials emerged from its paws: Demon Blood Stone, Blood Dragon Wood, Platinum Divine Iron...
Countless materials were covered with mysterious Array Patterns, which floated around it, enveloping the Big Black Dog and revealing wisps of chaotic mist.
The Wu Shi Killing Array appeared.
"Woof! Damn it, we've gone all out this time. Afterwards, we'll definitely drink three big bowls of Saint Blood first and then squeeze this kid dry!" the Big Black Dog cursed.
"I'll send you on your way right now!" The Old Woman's face was icy as she slowly raised her hand.
"When!!"
Suddenly, a bell rang out, deafeningly loud, almost freezing everyone's thoughts, and like a sudden enlightenment, instantly bringing a profound and mysterious understanding to everyone.
"When!!"
The second chime sounded, and the bell waves crashed against the shore like a raging storm, completely different from before, causing everyone's hearts to ache, as if angry waves were hitting their souls.
"When..."
The third chime sounded like a cosmic roar, the passage of time, the rise and fall of countless Star Scripture, and the collapse of the boundless starry sky. Everyone was terrified and almost collapsed to the ground.
Among the cultivators present, many were familiar with this bell sound, and they didn't know how many people had died because of it in the past.
"The Wu Shi Bell!"
The Imperial Lord Jiuli was the first to stand up. He could hardly believe his ears; even someone as composed and powerful as him almost jumped up.
"My God, is it really the bell of the Wu Shi the Great?"
When the legacy of the Wu Shi the Great first appeared in the world, many Holy Lord experienced it. They attacked Purple Mountain with several Imperial Weapons, but not only did they fail, they also lost many people.
"At the end of the immortal path, who stands at the peak? Upon seeing the Wu Shi One, all paths to enlightenment vanish. How did the tolling of the Wu Shi Bell reach the Central Plains?"
"Heavens! What has happened? Has the Wu Shi Bell been taken from Purple Mountain and brought to Central Plains?"
Everyone was shocked; such a thing could not have happened—it was simply terrifying. The Wu Shi Bell had been retrieved and brought to the Central Plains; this was an earth-shattering event.
However, the sound of the bell and the Chaos Qi were somewhat terrifying to Pang Bo and Ye Fan.
"Holy crap, what's Little Tyrant up to? Did they change the script?" Pang Bo really wanted to curse like that, but he didn't dare. He just showed a suspicious look.
Ye Fan's gaze met Pang Bo's suspicious expression, and he was shocked. He cursed inwardly, "When did Zhou Tong so unreliable? This wasn't how we discussed it from the beginning! What happened to our plan to make a direct appearance? What happened to our plan to establish authority immediately? What's with this charade?"
Ye Fan and Pang Bo were terrified, their necks covered in cold sweat.
Without their knowledge, the script underwent some changes!
Zhou Tong, who was hiding in the shadows, was also shocked.
"Holy crap, what the hell? I haven't even appeared yet, how come the sound of the Wu Shi Bell is already playing!" Zhou Tong was completely bewildered. He looked at his replica of the Wu Shi Bell and began to doubt his own existence.
The sound of this bell was clearly that of the Wu Shi Bell, and it was even more authentic than the Wu Shi Bell I had made myself.
"My goodness, could it be that the Wu Shi Bell has really appeared? But how is that possible?" Zhou Tong was shocked. According to his understanding, the Wu Shi Bell should not be here.
He wasn't one of those holy sites; he knew the ins and outs of the Wu Shi Bell very well. Without opening the Path to Immortality, the Wu Shi Bell could never leave Purple Mountain, let alone be taken away by anyone!
Unless the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo appear in the world.
However, the Saint Body was always under its own surveillance, so how could it possibly have the opportunity to give birth to the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo?
"No, I forgot something... Oh my god, I know! Big Black Dog, it must be that damn dog! He wants to see the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo, so he'll definitely protect Ye Fan!" Zhou Tong was stunned. He realized something and then held back, ready to see what that damn dog was capable of.
"However... that damned dog is never reliable, I'd better make some preparations first!" Zhou Tong directly threw the Vajra Ring into his Ten Cave Heaven Divine Rings, and instantly—
"Om!"
The Ten Cave Heaven Divine Rings roared, and the entire Divine Ring resonated with the Vajra Ring. An irresistible force surged into Zhou Tong's heart, giving him the illusion that with a single punch, this world would be overturned in an instant.
This is the power of the Vajra Ring, the ultimate power of Great Sage, which was enhanced on Zhou Tong through the Divine Ring.
"Bang!"
Within the Ten Cave Heaven Divine Rings, a loud bang resounded, and the lid of the Bronze Coffin suddenly opened a crack, emitting a divine sound of the Great Dao!
A trace of supreme divine power permeated the Ten Cave Heaven Divine Rings, giving Zhou Tong an unparalleled sense of power.
"In the future, there will be the Jar Heavenly Emperor; now, there is me, the Coffin Heavenly Emperor!"
"I am now... invincible!"
