Chapter 1104 - 732: An Unexpected Turn in Reincarnation’s Collection

All he could do was instruct Huang Chao to secretly observe the situation and then look for an opportunity to muddy the waters.

Huang Chao came and went in a hurry, his entire persona shrouded in mystery.

Zhang Chen’s life quieted down again; on one hand, he kept a covert eye on the situation at Chongzheng Academy, and on the other, he secretly eavesdropped on the activities of the Dragon Tiger Escort Agency.

Time flew by, and half a year passed quickly. As the first rain mixed with snow fell in Jinling City, autumn came to a complete end.

By all rights, it shouldn’t snow in Jiangnan, but the Innate Water God had disturbed the Qi Mechanism between Heaven and Earth, leading to the Law of Water being unsettled. This year, Jiangnan even saw rain mixed with snow.

Zhang Chen ’watched’ the Heaven-Reaching Jianmu rooted in the Primordial Spirit Ancestral Acupoint. After countless ages of growth, it finally showed some promise, no longer as fragile as before.

The Heaven-Reaching Jianmu now stood thirty meters tall, with a circumference as thick as a person’s embrace. Lush and verdant, its branches and leaves flourished, and threads of Innate Primordial Qi trickled down, making it appear quite majestic.

Nourished by the Innate Qi, Zhang Chen’s Innate Spiritual Treasure quickly repaired and nurtured itself, bringing him considerable peace of mind.

"According to the earlier calculations, today is the day to enter the ancient tomb and retrieve the Asura Dao Reincarnation. The tomb bricks cannot be excavated any further; if I dig any more, it may collapse. Once the Innate Grand Array collapses and the slumbering Corpse Ancestor awakens, I’m in big trouble." Zhang Chen quietly made his preparations, and then with a flicker, his Primordial Spirit appeared on the twenty-eighth heaven of the Spiritual World. Looking at the dog-eaten-like tomb bricks, Zhang Chen revealed a smug smile, and with another flicker, he was already within the Unplowed Void inside the great tomb.

Mysterious Qi Mechanism flowed from the black coffin, with the Asura Dao Reincarnation spinning and continuously channeling unnamed Qi Mechanism from the void into the coffin.

Zhang Chen became fully alert, standing before the coffin and observing the Asura Dao Reincarnation, pondering each step for retrieval: "The key is speed; I must snatch the Asura Dao Reincarnation swiftly, not giving the Corpse Ancestor any chance to awaken and counterattack."

With this thought, Zhang Chen extended his palm, the Yin Yang Grinding Disc revolving in his palm, and then Zhang Chen activated the Authority of the Six Paths of Reincarnation. In the next moment, the Yin Yang Grinding Disc flew out, and the Six Paths of Reincarnation under it vibrated, emanating a pulling force, resonating with the Asura Dao Reincarnation beneath the coffin.

Seemingly sensing Zhang Chen’sAuthority of Reincarnation’s call, the Asura Dao Reincarnation beneath the coffin trembled, as if wishing to break free and return to the Yin Yang Grinding Disc, but the coffin vibrated gently, suppressing the Asura Dao Reincarnation.

Seeing the gently trembling coffin, Zhang Chen couldn’t help but twitch slightly: "This is bad! The coffin is shaking, it’s likely the Corpse Ancestor inside is about to awaken. The Asura Dao Reincarnation is suppressed by the coffin and cannot return to my Authority of Reincarnation..."

As the coffin continued to shake, Zhang Chen realized it was a critical moment and, without hesitation, directly urged the Yin Yang Grinding Disc toward the Asura Dao beneath the coffin.

If he couldn’t summon the Asura Dao Reincarnation, he would push the Yin Yang Grinding Disc to merge with the Asura Dao Reincarnation of his own initiative, which should solve the problem, right?

This time, it indeed solved the problem. As Zhang Chen urged the Yin Yang Grinding Disc beneath the coffin, the Asura Dao Reincarnation gently vibrated and directly merged into the Yin Yang Grinding Disc. Then the Yin Yang Grinding Disc flickered, flying toward Zhang Chen.

Seeming to sense the loss of the Asura Dao Reincarnation, the coffin’s vibrations intensified. Just as the Yin Yang Grinding Disc approached Zhang Chen, about to enter his body, an ancient sigh suddenly echoed in the dark silence. Along with that voice, the entire darkness seemed to freeze: "Ah, I never imagined that after eons, someone would dare tread into this ancestor’s tomb. What a rare occurrence."

The voice was ancient and weathered, filled with an unspeakable melody of the great Dao. As it spoke, the entire world seemed to fall into stillness.

"Could it be that the era of this ancestor has truly passed, that now even a mere mouse dares to challenge me?" The ancient murmur continued.

"How do you wish to die, little ant?"

...

Listening to the ancient murmurs ringing in his ears, Zhang Chen felt his scalp tingle, his body seemingly on the verge of explosion, a look of horror flashed in his eyes.

"Danger!"

A terrifying dread surged from the depths of his soul, like a tempest, engulfing his entire Primordial Spirit.

At the moment the words sounded, it was as if a gust of wind blew by, and Zhang Chen felt his Sun True Flame, like a candle flame, was suddenly extinguished.

He knew that it was not the Sun True Flame that was weak, but rather that his strength was vastly inferior to that ancient figure in the coffin; he simply couldn’t unleash the supreme power of the Sun True Flame.

A voice rang in Zhang Chen’s mind, deafening, transforming into the sole thought in his heart:

Run!

Run!

Run!

Run as far as possible!

An instinct from the deepest part of the Primordial Spirit surged in his heart, flooding into his consciousness.

However, before Zhang Chen could react, his Primordial Spirit began to mutate directly; strange traces appeared on his Primordial Spirit, which continued to crack, transforming into clusters of white, dead-fish-like eyes that stared intensely at Zhang Chen.

"Damn! Something big is going to happen! My Primordial Spirit just heard the other person say one sentence and it mutated immediately, it’s unbelievable!!! I can’t even handle a single sentence from them!" Zhang Chen was filled with disbelief.

No wonder the Princess faced such an old entity and had to have a sleeve torn.

However, considering that the Princess could battle such an old entity and retreated intact shows just how formidable the Princess’s strength is—it has reached an unimaginable level.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, the True God Golden Light in Zhang Chen’s body circulated, and the usually magnificent True God Golden Light now emitted only a weak gleam, hardly illuminating his skin, yet it temporarily suppressed the mutation in Zhang Chen’s Primordial Spirit, giving him a chance to act.

In the next instant, Zhang Chen reached out his hand, grasping the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disc, intending to return to the Material Realm. But unexpectedly, the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disc stood immovable like a mountain, fixed in place; Zhang Chen couldn’t move it an inch.

"The Yin Yang Grinding Disc has been fixed by the opposing party." Zhang Chen’s expression changed drastically at that moment.

"Oh, Light of Chaos..." At this moment, a thread of curiosity emerged from the ancient murmurs: "Could it be a reincarnation of some Chaos Demon God?"

"But even if you are the reincarnation of the Chaos Demon God, daring to intrude into my tomb today, I’ll bury you here," the voice was filled with a ruthlessness, turning its sound waves and words into invisible chains, immobilizing Zhang Chen once more.

Countless grayish eyes once again emerged from the surface of Zhang Chen’s Primordial Spirit, terrifying hands slowly extended out from those eyes as if ready to tear Zhang Chen apart. At this crucial moment, the Divine Power of the Buzhou Seal flowed at the depths of Zhang Chen’s soul, and in the next moment, Zhang Chen’s Primordial Spirit vanished from the Eighth Heaven of the Spiritual World.

"Eh~" The Corpse Ancestor inside the grand tomb paused, and then a powerful Qi Mechanism burst out of the tomb, scanning the entire Eighth Heaven; soon it saw its own tomb had been excavated into ruins.

"Damn! Those wretched ants dared to destroy my Primordial Heaven-Suppressing Array; I won’t forgive you!" Seeing its own severely damaged tomb, the Corpse Ancestor within the coffin was filled with shock and fear, especially as it saw the many breaths within the tomb spreading towards the outside, the fear intensified considerably.

"I’m doomed, the array is damaged, and my Origin Qi is starting to leak out; what should I do now?" The Corpse Ancestor felt a bit at a loss at this moment.

Think of repairing the array?

It would need materials to repair it.

Could it dare step out of the tomb? Could it dare leave the Spiritual World to find materials to repair the tomb?

"The only plan now is to capture that kid and retrieve the tomb bricks; otherwise, my avatar here will be ruined!" Inside the coffin, resonated obscure mutterings with emotions full of fury.

Meanwhile, Zhang Chen’s Primordial Spirit returned to the Material Realm, just descended into the physical body, and the next moment, his skin twisted, then countless eyes opened in unison, emitting a grayish light while looking at Zhang Chen.

"This is bad, I’ve brought the ominous force from that tomb into the Material Realm." Seeing the eyes covering his body, Zhang Chen couldn’t help but be shocked; the True God Golden Light in his body flowed quickly, yet it could do nothing against them.

Just as countless sticky, clammy baby-like hands slowly stretched out from those eyes, threatening to cause disaster, suddenly the Qi Mechanism of the Great Thousand Worlds transformed, and those countless hands receded and reverted into obscure streams, flowing towards the Great Thousand Worlds.

Not only those countless eyes, but even the obscure aura on Zhang Chen’s body emitted cries, transforming into strands of Primordial Qi, flowing towards the Great Thousand Worlds, becoming its nourishment.

"Substance flows from high-concentration to low-concentration; for those Ancient Gods, the effect is surprisingly good, isn’t it?" Zhang Chen was stunned by the phenomenon unfolding before him.

He thought he’d face an unprecedented crisis, yet who knew it would be entirely resolved at this moment. The End of the Dharma world’s laws saved him!

Those laws that originally shackled the living beings of Heaven and Earth now became Zhang Chen’s lifeline.

All the bizarre powers within Zhang Chen’s Primordial Spirit were entirely absorbed by the Great Thousand Worlds; even if there were remnants, facing Zhang Chen’s True God Golden Light, it was powerless and was swept away by the True God Golden Light.

"Did I just get saved?" Accompanied by the True God Golden Light extinguishing the last trace of the Corpse Ancestor’s Qi Mechanism, Zhang Chen’s breathing gradually steadied, letting out a long sigh of relief.

Who could have thought, the one to save him turned out to be the End of the Dharma environment in the Great Thousand Worlds?
