The World of the God of Death; A Little Earthen Grave in the Cemetery! [First Update; Please Bookmark and Send Flowers]
His character design had completely collapsed, Sect Master Tongtian!
Shen Lang silently complained about Daoist Tongtian's talent while waiting for dawn to break in the simulation world.
If it did not become daylight, he truly would not be able to find where Tongtian was, let alone what he had turned into.
He just did not know whether Tongtian could last until dawn in this simulation.
They were both SSS-rank players. Nuwa had managed to live for over a thousand years, so Tongtian should not have died this early...
Not to mention Shen Lang in the Primordial World—even Tongtian himself had no idea where he was or what he had become.
When his consciousness recovered, he could only feel that his entire body was immobile. He could not speak either, and his eyes, nose, and mouth were all stuffed full of something.
He could vaguely sense his body. It seemed to still be his Innate Dao Body after transforming.
But it was not entirely like an Innate Dao Body. It merely possessed its shape, without the essence of an Innate Dao Body.
If Shen Lang could see clearly, he would certainly have recognized that it was actually a human body.
However, in the current Primordial World, Nuwa had not even created humanity yet, so Tongtian naturally had no idea what it was.
Before humanity appeared, the human form was the Innate Dao Body in the Primordial World—the form all living beings would choose after transforming!
The issue with his body was secondary. What Tongtian most wanted to figure out was what exactly was happening right now.
His cultivation realm was gone, his magic power was gone—everything was gone!
Fortunately, the attentive simulator manifested a Light Screen in his mind and gave him a warm reminder.
[In the simulation world, you are restricted from using the power belonging to your original world. You can only rely on your existing strength to overcome the crisis.]
Upon seeing this prompt, Tongtian, who had been utterly bewildered, instantly had countless thoughts flash through his mind.
"Is this the test of an Innate Supreme Treasure?"
"It has blocked all my abilities and wants me to start the test from scratch!"
"I see!"
"Rest assured. I will definitely pass your test!"
Tongtian's mental state had reached 4 points. Combined with his obsession with the Innate Supreme Treasure, this allowed him to slowly calm down.
At the same time, he carefully sensed his exact condition.
He had no heartbeat, no breathing, and no fluctuations of aura whatsoever. He was practically a corpse that had been dead for countless years!
As for Tongtian himself, he seemed to be nothing more than a wisp of Spiritual Light consciousness, without any strength!
However, Tongtian could sense that some mysterious power seemed to be sustaining the existence of this body. Otherwise, it should have decayed long ago.
There was not just one source of power, but three!
Two of those powers existed within his body, as though they had been there for countless years.
The other power was outside, seeming to be some kind of Formation.
The three powers had originally been harmonious, blending together to maintain the body. But his arrival had disrupted that balance.
Now, all three powers were quietly dissipating—including Tongtian's own Spiritual Light!
Upon sensing this, Tongtian could not help but grow anxious.
After all, the mission of this Innate Supreme Treasure's test was for him to survive in this treasure space for a thousand years.
But at his current rate of Spiritual Light dissipation, he probably would not last even ten years...
Chapter Nineteen: God's Tomb World, the Small Earthen Grave in the Cemetery! [1 more chapter, please collect and send flowers]
Tongtian did not care at all about dying here in ten years.
After all, the treasure had said that if he died here, his true body in the Primordial World would be unharmed.
But dying would mean failing the test, and failing the test would cause him to miss out on an Innate Supreme Treasure!
"I can't die! I can't fail!"
Tongtian absolutely would not allow this Innate Supreme Treasure to slip away from him. The duck was already in his mouth—he could not let it fly away!
There was no denying that obsession was a terrifying thing!
Tongtian's somewhat flustered state of mind once again returned to calm. He patiently considered how to deal with the predicament before him.
"I can't panic. At worst, I still have about ten years!"
"As long as I find a solution within ten years, I can survive!"
"Since this is a test, there must be a way to pass it. The treasure must have left me a sliver of hope!"
"The problem right now is those three powers!"
"As long as I can find a way to restore the balance between those three powers, I can ensure that I won't die!"
Thus, Tongtian began carefully studying the three powers within his body.
Through constant observation, and with the insight of a Late Stage Great Principle Golden Immortal, he finally figured out their essence.
The first power should belong to the Soul Power of a fallen powerhouse.
The Soul Power itself did not possess any strength, but it seemed to be absorbing resentment!
In other words, something outside had produced resentment. So what exactly was the situation outside?
Unfortunately, aside from being able to think, Tongtian could not move his body at all. Naturally, he had no way to leave this place and investigate.
However, his mouth seemed to be filled with the foul, rotten smell of soil. Was he underground, buried?
The second power was extremely weak. It was also a numbed Spiritual Sense, as though it were asleep, with barely any discernible fluctuation.
As for the remaining power, it was the power of the Formation.
This power seemed to have no other function. It appeared to exist solely to preserve this body and help the first two powers fuse.
The entire situation looked as though it was waiting for this body to undergo some kind of transformation!
Unfortunately, Tongtian's Spiritual Light had arrived like a cuckoo occupying another bird's nest, directly interrupting the transformation. In the end, all of them would dissipate together!
"Compared with those three powers, I'm actually the weakest!"
"That Soul Power was very strong at its peak. It should have been at the level of a Golden Immortal or Grand Unity Golden Immortal!"
"That Spiritual Sense is weaker, but these two powers have the same fluctuations at their source!"
"I understand. This is using the power of the Formation to fuse the Reincarnated Body's Spiritual Sense with the Previous Life's Soul Power, thereby reviving and reincarnating!"
"Now that I'm here, he can't be revived... What should I do?"
"If I devour these two powers and then use the Formation's power, can I take control of this body?"
"Unfortunately, I only have Spiritual Light left. I don't have the strength to devour them."
"The Primordial Laws here are not entirely the same as those of the Primordial World. If I want to strengthen my Spiritual Light, I have to find another way."
"Hmm? Why is the spiritual energy in this place so inferior..."
As Tongtian continued thinking and deducing, time slowly passed.
After figuring out the general situation, Tongtian, much like Nuwa back then, embarked on the path of creating techniques to strengthen his Spiritual Light.
The difference was that during Nuwa's simulation, she had directly replaced the Willow Tree and could completely control the old Willow Tree.
Tongtian was different. He had been thrown into someone else's body, and there was still another person's Spiritual Sense sleeping inside it.
In other words, Tongtian first had to fight someone else for control of the body!
At Buzhou Mountain, the image on the Light Screen before Shen Lang's eyes finally began to change.
A wisp of golden light scattered from the east, like holy light cleansing filth, gradually clarifying the image.
"It finally became daylight!"
Shen Lang immediately perked up. Once the image became clear, he could finally see Tongtian's current predicament.
The daytime scene in the image was completely different from the nighttime scene.
Last night had truly been a scene of demons running wild, as though it were a ghost domain—enough to make anyone shudder.
But once daylight came, after only a few breaths of sunlight, it transformed into a paradise-like immortal realm!
Misty immortal energy rose and drifted away, glittering brilliantly.
What came into view was lush vegetation and all kinds of flowers, as well as... old graves and tombstones!
Graves and tombstones stretched across the land in clusters!
Although the grave mounds looked rather old, every one of them was very clean, with fresh flowers and sacrificial offerings placed before the tombstones.
However, the image was currently pulled quite far back, showing something like a panoramic view.
As a result, Shen Lang could not make out the writing on the tombstones at all and had no way to glean any further information.
But one thing was certain: this was a Cemetery!
Tongtian's luck was truly something else. The moment he entered the simulator, he had been sent straight to a graveyard!
Wait, where was Tongtian again?
Shen Lang hurriedly followed the prompt arrow beside the image. Once he saw clearly, his expression turned strange.
