Heaven-Disordering Black Coffin
A powerful weapon for protecting the mountain!
This is an extremely special magical Law Artifact.
It is not a single Law Artifact, but a massive creation constructed from a combination of countless magical Law Artifact and array bases.
Connecting to the earth's veins and penetrating the azure sky, it draws upon the earth's thick and turbid energy and the heavens' pure and spiritual power. It serves as the sect's final, crucial barrier and counterattack method after the mountain-protecting formation.
Because it has been nurtured and washed by the power of the earth's veins and the power of the Azure Sky for many years, the mountain-suppressing artifact naturally contains these two powers.
If a sufficient number of fragments of the powerful artifact that guards the mountain can be collected and refined.
This allows one to develop one of the four fundamental rare items necessary for Early Foundation Establishment Stage True Person to break through to the mid -Clarity and Turbidity stage!
Moreover, the power of the mountain-suppressing weapon itself is terrifying.
After all, it was the sect's last resort, even if they only managed to seize a portion of the remains and refine it slightly.
Its power is enough to make it a trump card that can turn the tide of battle at crucial moments.
Therefore, the moment the [Heaven-Disordering Black Coffin], the most powerful artifact of the Zombie Alliance, broke through the ground and revealed its ferocious side, the Foundation Establishment True Person from all sides, who had been relatively restrained, suddenly began to breathe heavily!
Whether it's for that precious [Clarity and Turbidity] energy.
Whether it's for the immense power that the Black Coffin itself might possess, it's worth risking their lives!
"This treasure—perfectly aligns with the Daoist intent of my Human Emperor Banner."
The throbbing in Qi Yun's heart, originating from the Human Emperor Banner, became increasingly clear.
In an instant, Qi Yun had made up his mind.
He'll fight for that Black Coffin too!
However, just as he was about to move slightly, that annoying voice rang out again. "Nephew Qi, wait a moment."
He Sha's obese figure moved half a step at just the right moment, seemingly unintentionally, yet precisely blocking the path between Qi Yun and the Black Coffin.
His face still bore that nauseating smile, and his dark yellow pupils gleamed with cunning. "Senior Brother Black Mountain ordered me to protect my junior nephew. The danger ahead is extreme, and various True Person are eyeing us covetously. For this treasure that guards the mountain, there will surely be a fierce battle."
My nephew carries the [Supreme Dao Foundation], and is the future hope of our Holy Sect. How can we easily take such a risk?
"How about we wait here a moment, and I, your uncle, go and scout out the way for you and clear out some obstacles?"
He spoke in a grand and dignified manner, as if he genuinely cared about Qi Yun.
But the intention to obstruct was obvious.
Clearly, according to Black Mountain True Person, he would not allow Qi Yun to seize the Black Coffin and increase his strength.
Qi Yun paused, his brows furrowing almost imperceptibly, and his tone became somewhat stiff. "Uncle He's kindness is appreciated, Qi Yun understands."
However, how can one retreat from the path of cultivation out of fear of danger?
This item is beneficial to my Dao Path, so I should go and fight for it.
Uncle-Master, you should take care of yourself.
As he spoke, he swayed slightly, attempting to go around from the other side.
But He Sha, like a leech, swept a gust of yellow wind beneath his feet and once again blocked Qi Yun's path, his smile growing even wider, "Nephew, you are young and impetuous, I understand perfectly well."
However, He dared not disobey his senior brother Black Mountain's orders.
If my nephew insists on going, and something goes wrong, how can I explain it to my senior brother Black Mountain?
How about this, nephew, you stay here and observe. If any fragments of the Black Coffin really do fly over here, I, your senior brother, will absolutely not fight with you for them. What do you say?"
He Sha is clearly being unreasonable. The battle for the Black Coffin must be in the core area; how could the fragments have been scattered to this peripheral place for no reason?
Qi Yun's face darkened, his fingers tightened slightly in his sleeve, revealing a hint of suppressed anger, and his voice turned cold. "Uncle-Master He, are you deliberately making things difficult for me?"
"How dare I, how dare I?" He Sha waved his hands repeatedly, his smile unchanged.
That was exactly the effect he wanted: to enrage Qi Yun and throw him off balance.
Ideally, one should be able to resist striking first, so that he has a reason to "discipline" him, or even—accidentally—injure him severely.
"Nephew, please don't misunderstand. I am acting out of pure sincerity, only concerned for your safety."
While the two were exchanging words and restraining each other, a deafening roar and dazzling Law Power light of various colors erupted around the [Heaven-Disordering Black Coffin] in the distance!
The real battle has begun!
Qi Yun glared at He Sha with a "gloomy expression," suppressed the urge to attack immediately, snorted coldly, and stopped trying to force a breakthrough.
But the slight rise and fall of his chest still betrayed his "inner turmoil".
Seeing this, He Sha Sha's smile widened as he plotted how to maximize his own gains in the ensuing chaos.
Meanwhile, he kept glancing at Qi Yun out of the corner of his eye.
They were on guard against any irrational actions that this "young and impetuous" junior apprentice might take.
He could then seize the opportunity to make his move.
Boom--!!!!
A terrifyingly loud bang, capable of shattering eardrums and splitting mountains and rivers, suddenly exploded!
Under the probing of a group of Foundation Establishment True Person.
The thick, long chains that had been wrapped around the [Heaven-Disordering Black Coffin] and had imprisoned countless beings for countless years finally succumbed to the pressure from both inside and outside, letting out a groan of unbearable strain.
Then, amidst a series of blinding flashes of light and ear-piercing sounds of metal breaking, they all shattered and flew away inch by inch!
Freed from the restraint of chains, the massive coffin lid, as heavy as a mountain and seemingly capable of suppressing the Nine Nethers, could no longer maintain its balance.
With a chilling scraping sound, it slowly tilted outwards and finally crashed to the ground with a loud thud!
Thump!!!
The moment the coffin lid hit the ground, the entire earth trembled violently, whipping up a cloud of dust that stretched for dozens of miles.
Like a sandstorm, it swept in all directions, shrouding everything nearby in a dim and hazy light.
Almost at the same moment the coffin lid collapsed, all the Foundation Establishment True Person gathered nearby displayed astonishing coordination and caution. Their figures transformed into streaks of Flowing Light, retreating hundreds of feet in unison, quickly creating a relatively safe distance.
One by one, their faces were solemn, and they stared warily at the open coffin, which was as deep and dark as the mouth of a giant beast.
No one dared to step forward easily.
As the Zombie Alliance's last resort and most crucial weapon, who knows what terrifying contingency plan might be hidden within this autonomous, unmanned system?
The dust settled slowly, revealing the bottomless darkness inside the Black Coffin.
All the True Person beings cautiously probed the darkness with their Divine Sense, trying to perceive what was happening within.
In this deathly silence of gaze, tap-tap-tap-tap...
A clear, muffled sound, like footsteps treading on rotten wood and withered bones, suddenly came from inside the abyss-like coffin.
From far to near, from sparse to dense!
The next moment!
Reflected in the contracted pupils of the assembled Foundation Establishment True Person.
Countless, densely packed figures surged forth from the opening of the coffin like a black tide bursting its banks!
These are the bizarre, half-ghost, half-corpse Law Corpse created using the Secret Method of the Zombie Alliance!
Countless Law Corpse surged forth like a tidal wave, rushing towards all living beings within sight.
Initially, the Foundation Establishment True Person didn't pay much attention to this Law Corpse of corpses whose auras were only at the Qi Refining Realm; some even wore a hint of disdain on their lips.
"The Zombie Alliance has run out of tricks; they actually expect these useless fools to stop us?"
With a True Person wave of his sleeve, a powerful Law Power swept out like an invisible tsunami, instantly crushing the thousands of attacking Law Corpse into dust, with black mist and severed limbs flying everywhere.
The other True Person merely snorted coldly, his body radiating Dao intent, his [Dao Position] suppressing the Law Corpse before him like a thousand mountains collapsing down, instantly turning it into ashes.
Under the absolute difference in realm and the suppression of Dao Position, no matter how many of these Law Corpse there are, they pose no threat whatsoever to Foundation Establishment True Person.
Even if they stand still and let the Law Corpse attack them.
That meager strength couldn't cross the chasm of [Dao Position], like an ant trying to shake a tree.
However, something strange soon happened.
The black aura and remains of the slain and scattered Law Corpse did not completely disappear. Instead, as if drawn by some invisible force, they were rapidly swept back into the opened [Heaven-Disordering Black Coffin].
In just a few breaths, a flash of black light appeared inside the coffin, and even more Law Corpse, whose auras seemed to have condensed slightly, surged out!
Their rate of death and rebirth is accelerating!
This cycle of death and rebirth continues.
The aura of certain legal households has begun to rise and transform at an abnormal rate!
Buzz!
Suddenly, the bodies of the leading Law Corpse shuddered violently, and a faint yet real radiance belonging to the [Dao Position] appeared on their surfaces!
Although the aura at this Dao Position is still very faint and mixed.
They are far from being comparable to true Foundation Establishment True Person.
However, their appearance signifies that these Law Corpse have begun to possess the ability to bridge the gap in [Dao Position].
In other words, from this moment on, their attacks now have the potential to injure Foundation Establishment True Person!
At this point, the expressions of all the Foundation Establishment True Person changed. Their faces were filled with deep surprise and solemnity.
Things suddenly started to go wrong.
"It's truly a behemoth among near-top-tier entities; we shouldn't linger here!"
Those who can cultivate to the Foundation Establishment Realm are all people who have weathered many storms, possess a calm and collected mind, and have keen senses.
Perhaps there are times when greed blinds us.
But when faced with a truly deadly threat, self-preservation is always the top priority.
This [Heaven-Disordering Black Coffin] before us is far too eerie!
Not only can it continuously "revive" the Law Corpse, but it can also allow these Law Corpse to absorb nutrients from their deaths and rapidly evolve into [Dao Position].
This is completely beyond their understanding of the crucial weapon for controlling the mountain!
Almost without any communication, alarm bells rang in the hearts of all Foundation Establishment True Person, and they instantly reached a consensus to retreat!
Get away from that ominous coffin immediately!
However, just as they moved, channeling their Law Power and preparing to transform into streaks of light and scatter away, hum—
A deep, resonant sound, as if emanating from the deepest depths of Nine Nethers, rang out simultaneously from very close behind each of them!
All that could be seen was behind all the Foundation Establishment True Person.
Suddenly, a black coffin phantom, shrunk several times in size but identical in shape to the central [Heaven-Disordering Black Coffin], appeared out of thin air!
These illusory coffins were about ten feet long, completely dark, and none of them had coffin lids.
At that moment, a terrifying suction force suddenly erupted from within the coffin.
That gesture clearly indicated that he intended to "bury" them in a coffin on the spot!
One of the True Person reacted extremely quickly, and with a backhand slash, unleashed an incomparably sharp sword aura towards the Black Coffin phantom behind him.
Where the sword light passed, even the void was torn apart.
But the phantom of the Black Coffin only swayed slightly.
Like a reflection in water, it became even more solid, and the aura of annihilation intensified!
A True Person attempted to use teleportation techniques to forcibly move away, but the Black Coffin phantom that followed closely behind was like a madman clinging to a bone, impossible to shake off!
Even more True Person unleashed their protective magical Law Treasure, whose dazzling Baoguang formed a thick protective shield. However, under the absorption of the Black Coffin, the Baoguang dimmed at a visible speed!
In an instant, all the Foundation Establishment True Person who intended to retreat were caught off guard by the strangely appearing "burial coffin," and found themselves in dire straits. Forget about escaping; even protecting themselves seemed extremely risky!
The situation took a sharp turn, instantly transforming from a battle for treasure into a terrifying survival game!
Qi Yun also sensed the threat posed by the Black Coffin phantom behind him, which exuded the aura of annihilation.
However, compared to the panic of the other True Person...
The [Human Emperor Banner] within his body trembled and leaped with increasing elation!
