The power that had originally overflowed from the coffin was cut off in that instant, and He Ao's blurry body exploded apart.
Thud.
A tremendous force surged from within the coffin, bracing against the closing lid and forcing it open a crack once more. Dense black radiance flowed from the coffin, once again forming a blurry humanoid figure.
"Heh, foolish fellow." Seeing this, the girl in the white dress sneered.
She raised a hand, and even more terrifying power pressed down from all directions. "Struggle. Entertain me."
At the same time, beneath that pressure, threads of delicate purple radiance followed the terrifying force, using it as cover as they began to seep through the gap in the coffin.
The black mist leaking from the coffin quickly noticed the infiltrating purple radiance. The mist swiftly surged like breathing, attempting to squeeze the purple radiance out.
But the purple radiance was so fine and surging that it quickly found gaps in the mist and burrowed into it as though drilling into soft earth.
He Ao, formed from mist, turned and glanced at the coffin behind him.
His "vision" seemed to undergo a strange change at that moment.
The purple radiance seeped into his power, his body, and his soul.
The surrounding stacks of shelves and towering attic gradually transformed into bright sunlight.
A tall stone city wall appeared in his sight.
He Ao lowered his head and looked at his palms.
The black smoke gradually dispersed, revealing palms with slightly rough calluses. He lowered his head to look at his body. The body of black smoke gradually transformed into luxurious clothes. He Ao raised his head and looked around.
Earthen walls emerged from the mist, and figures took shape between heaven and earth.
