Inside the Emperor-Burying Coffin, the flames of battle raged between Chu Kuangren and the evil ghosts and rakshasas.
There was no telling how long the battle had lasted.
One month, two months?
Chu Kuangren could no longer remember.
But the more he fought, the more absorbed he became, gradually entering a state of self-forgetfulness as his understanding of his own Dao soared.
Somewhere in the unseen, a barrier stood before him.
Break it!
Break through this barrier!
Every thought in Chu Kuangren's mind, every nerve in his brain, clamored madly, Break it, break it!!
"This is bad. Is he about to attain the Emperor Dao?!"
The Underworld God's Will Incarnation's expression shifted slightly.
He was not afraid of Chu Kuangren reaching the Emperor Dao Realm. Even if Chu Kuangren became an Emperor immediately, he would not be able to destroy the Emperor-Burying Coffin or kill him.
But he had come to kill Chu Kuangren.
Instead, he was helping him attain the Emperor Dao. How could he stomach that?
"Gate of the Underworld, close!"
The Underworld God's Will Incarnation tried to withdraw his Supernatural Power.
But as though Chu Kuangren had sensed his intention, a terrifying force suddenly erupted behind him, transforming into a gigantic manifestation that charged up to the Gate of the Underworld and forcibly jammed it open.
The manifestation's power was terrifying, and it contained the powers of several Supreme Dao Bodies, even including the Chaos Body Chu Kuangren had most recently acquired. During the battle, he had actually integrated it into the manifestation.
The Underworld God's expression changed sharply. "This fellow..."
With the Myriad Daoist Law Manifestation interfering, he could not close the Gate of the Underworld completely. Ultimately, he was only a will incarnation and could not wield the Underworld God's Supernatural Power with complete ease.
