Divine Mark Purple Gold

Clang!

Ji Zi, staggering backward, bumped lightly into the Emperor's coffin behind him.

The empty Emperor's coffin immediately changed. Its nine mysterious outer shells closed one after another, once more becoming the ancient and enigmatic Ninefold Divine Spirit Coffin.

The Ninefold Divine Spirit Coffin swayed as it set sail, drifting away alone toward the cold, desolate depths of the universe. It floated through the boundless void, merging with the Great Dao.

"The Great Emperor's coffin!"

The Ji Family's elder Great Saint immediately grew anxious and moved to stop the Ninefold Divine Spirit Coffin.

"Elder, born in the void, buried in the void—this was Father's own choice. Whether we bring back his imperial body is not important. It is enough that the Ji Family has a cenotaph."

Ji Zi suddenly stopped his guardian and silently shook his head.

The Ji Family's elder Great Saint fell silent. As his state of mind shifted, the Void Mirror above his head, which had been constantly humming, gradually calmed as well.

Yes, the Great Emperor had long since made his choice. Before his death, he had buried himself within the boundless turbulent currents of the void, untouched by the mortal world and beyond worldly affairs.

His unfilial descendants should not disturb their ancestor's slumber.

In the dark, icy depths of the universe, the lone ancient coffin gradually drifted farther away.

"Farewell, Ancestor!"

"Farewell, Ancestor!"

"Farewell, Ancestor!"

Whether it was the Void Great Emperor's son or the Ji Family's accumulated powers from past generations, all of them wore solemn expressions as they bowed in tribute, seeing off a Great Emperor of an era.

Buzzz!

At that moment, the Void Mirror seemed to possess life and a clear will of its own. It trembled ceaselessly, letting out mournful cries as though unwilling to part with its master.
