Confinement

"Boom!"

A strange roar rang in the ears of the Good Corpse, and the hands that the Original Self was operating were instantly thrown back as if electrocuted.

Before the Good Corpse could understand anything, the scene before it changed again.

The original pitch black turned grayish-white again.

Behind the two, a black hole was slowly disappearing.

Through the healing black hole, the Good Corpse clearly saw that the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox had revealed its true form and was rapidly approaching.

From a visual perspective, the other party could definitely have rushed in before the black hole closed.

"Book..."

The Good Corpse was about to speak and remind the Original Self.

But then he discovered that a pistol had somehow appeared in his hand.

As the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox drew closer, the Original Self pulled the trigger.

"Clatter!"

The Good Corpse clearly saw that nothing was visible on the barrel of the pistol.

However, based on the Good Corpse's understanding of the Original Self, he couldn't believe that the Original Self would produce such a nonsensical thing.

Therefore, the Good Corpse set its sights on the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox.

As expected, no signs of attack were found on the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox.

But the opponent's speed is decreasing rapidly.

In an instant, it froze in mid-air, like a statue.

The black hole in front of them closed at that moment.

Looking at his long-unseen Original Self, the Good Corpse's face was filled with complex emotions.

"You... you've advanced to the Great Sage level?"

What do you think?

The Original Self shrugged helplessly, spreading his arms to look at the Good Corpse.

Without the slightest hesitation, the Good Corpse directly enveloped the Original Self body with its Divine Sense.

Unfortunately, no Sage's Will could be sensed from the Original Self form.

There wasn't even any Immortal Qi!

Only a very thin layer of Spiritual Qi was flowing slightly.

"What's going on? Still in the Qi Refining Realm?"

"That's exactly the situation!"

The Original Self shrugged helplessly at the Good Corpse, but the Good Corpse, after a moment's thought, smiled broadly.

"Hahaha, Qi Refining Realm actually repelled Great Sage! Interesting! And that pistol just now...?"

As soon as the Good Corpse finished speaking, he felt something flying towards him—it was the same pistol from before.

Looking at this pistol, which was exactly the same as the one he knew, the Good Corpse found it hard to believe that the attack it fired could actually stop a Great Sage.

"This..."

"It's a bit complicated to explain, it's just an ordinary handgun! What's special is the bullet!"

"Bullet?"

The Good Corpse subconsciously pressed the release button, only to discover that the pistol had no magazine at all.

"Stop looking, it's not the Seed you think of! It's this kind!"

The Original Self stretched out his palm, but it was empty.

However, according to the Good Corpse's Divine Sense, a very peculiar particle was floating in his hand.

The surrounding Dark Matter became exceptionally active due to the presence of this particle.

It's clearly moving closer to this particle.

"That's all?"

Although this particle is indeed somewhat special, the state it is exhibiting at this moment is completely different from when the Original Self dealt with the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox.

Of course not!

The Original Self, retracting its hand, shook its head and said, "This is the unactivated state! Once activated, this thing can absorb all the Dark Matter in an entire galaxy within seconds!"

Upon hearing this, the Good Corpse was speechless.

It's important to know that the total amount of Dark Matter in the universe far exceeds that of visible matter.

It can instantly gather Dark Matter in a galaxy together, which is even more terrifying than compressing a galaxy.

It's unclear to what extent this aggregation effect can be achieved.

But based on what I've seen before, I know it's something extraordinary.

Even Great Sage like the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox couldn't extricate itself from it, so it's no wonder that the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox remained motionless at that time.

Seeing that the Good Corpse had fallen into deep thought, the Original Self also remained silent.

The two arrived at the end of the space tunnel in silence.

With a wave of Original Self hand, the surrounding gray-white environment once again turned into a black cosmic background.

A familiar planet came into view.

It's our Mother Planet!

As for the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox, it remained motionless in the void.

It looks like a beautiful sculpture, stunning yet tinged with endless loneliness.

As time went on, the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox's body began to sway slightly.

At first, the shaking was not obvious, but it kept getting worse.

The shaking became increasingly violent.

Cracks also frequently appeared in the surrounding space.

Some of the cracks even extend into nearby galaxies.

Like a battle blade, it cleaved the stars within into pieces.

The surrounding dozen or so galaxies were all affected, with swathes of stars turning into cosmic dust at that moment.

"Boom!"

With a deafening roar.

The Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox seemed to have broken free from some kind of restraint, and a terrifying wave radiated rapidly in all directions from her center.

This time, the surrounding dozen or so star systems suffered another catastrophic disaster.

As the ripples subsided, the remaining stars gradually faded away.

When the fluctuations completely disappear, less than one-tenth of the celestial bodies remain.

Who is that?

At this moment, the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox's eyes were filled with fear, and the bloodstains at the corner of its mouth showed that Original Self attack was not just a simple delay.

The mighty Monkey Great Sage is actually injured!

Because it was in the Human Clan territory, the injured Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox dared not linger and vanished from the spot in a flash.

The Original Self, who had already entered the Mother Planet, was visibly taken aback for a moment, then shook his head helplessly and muttered to himself, "Alas! The Great Sage is indeed the Great Sage!"

Hearing this, the Good Corpse asked curiously, "What? Is it Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox?"

"That's right! She's free!"

Seeing the helpless expression on the Original Self, the Good Corpse didn't know how to speak.

How to comfort her?

A mere Qi Refining Realm cultivator has trapped the Great Sage for so long!

What need is there for comfort in this situation? We should be celebrating!

If the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox knew that Original Self was just a Qi Refining Realm cultivator...

I reckon he'd be so angry he'd suffer internal injuries.

Upon learning of the Original Self's return, Liang Shi immediately appeared before the two.

"Master, you're finally back!"

"Um!"

The Original Self, after nodding, did not look at Liang Shi, but stared motionlessly at the Book of Technology before him.

Upon seeing this, Liang Shi quickly said, "Master, I have connected the Book of Technology with the Cultivation Assistance System! This was done without your permission. Please punish me!"

"Alright, alright!"

Hearing Liang Shi's words, the Good Corpse waved his hand and said, "Didn't I say? Since he entrusted the Book of Technology to you, he won't have any objections no matter how you handle it!"

The Original Self nodded in agreement upon hearing this, but then waved his hand and put away the Book of Technology.

He then kept his eyes closed for a full day before opening them again.

With another wave of his hand, the Book of Technology reappeared in its original place.

"You, my Original Self...?"

"Yes, I've added some insights that weren't in the Book of Technology!"
