Chapter 468: Evil Demon Origin, Heaven Burying Immortal Emperor

Zhou Chen took a deep breath, showing no sign of retreat.

With a wave of his hand, the chaos bell flew out from his body and hovered above his head.

The bell's body emitted a faint golden light, enveloping him within.

Seeing Zhou Chen, the giant carcass let out a heaven-shaking roar.

It raised its massive palm and swatted down toward Zhou Chen.

The palm print whistled through the air, containing terrifying Evil Demon Power.

The Void Realm trembled as if it were about to be torn apart.

Zhou Chen's expression remained calm as he activated the Innate Primordial Qi Origin Scripture.

Countless strands of Origin Immortal Qi surged from his body, transforming into a golden pillar of light to meet the palm print.

Boom!

The palm print and the pillar of light collided in mid-air.

A terrifying energy fluctuation erupted instantly.

The ground for thousands of miles around trembled as countless cracks spread out.

The smoke and dust cleared.

Zhou Chen still stood in his original spot, completely unharmed.

Countless cracks had appeared on the giant carcass's palm.

Evil Demon Qi leaked out frantically, being continuously purified by the Origin Immortal Qi.

"As expected, the Innate Primordial Qi Origin Scripture has an extremely strong restraining effect on Evil Demon Qi."

A flash of joy crossed Zhou Chen's eyes.

Without hesitation, his figure flickered, appearing instantly before the carcass.

He slashed out with the qingping sword.

Immortal Emperor Sword Intent!

A phantom of a green lotus whistled out, aiming directly for the carcass's head.

The carcass tried to dodge, but it was already too late.

Puchi!

The sword light pierced through its head, completely annihilating the Demonic Thought within.

The carcass's body stiffened on the spot and then crashed to the ground.

Zhou Chen landed on the ground, his Divine Sense sweeping over the carcass.

Inside the carcass was a fist-sized mass of Evil Demon Origin.

The Origin emitted a pure black light, containing terrifying energy.

Zhou Chen reached out and grabbed it, stowing the Origin into his Small World.

At that moment, the chaos bell suddenly vibrated violently.

Wangcai flew out from the bell, excitedly rubbing his small hands.

"Master, master! There's something good ahead!"

"I feel it; that thing shares the same Origin as me!"

Zhou Chen raised an eyebrow.

"Same Origin?"

Wangcai nodded vigorously.

"Exactly! That thing is definitely on the same level as me!"

"Quick, quick, quick, let's head over there right now!"

Zhou Chen did not hesitate, activating his escape light to fly in the direction Wangcai pointed.

After flying for tens of thousands of miles, Zhou Chen stopped before a massive stone stele.

The stone stele was a thousand zhang tall, cast entirely from an unknown black rock, emitting an aura that suppressed all things.

The body of the stele was covered in ancient runes.

These runes were like living creatures, moving restlessly across the stele.

However, the stone stele was already covered in dense, spiderweb-like cracks.

Wisps of black gas were seeping out from the cracks.

The black gas emitted a dense Evil Demon Power, causing the surrounding Void Realm to distort.

Zhou Chen's Divine Sense swept over the stone stele, and his pupils shrank suddenly.

On the front of the stele, six large characters were carved: Tomb of the Heaven Burying Immortal Emperor.

"Tomb of the Heaven Burying Immortal Emperor?"

Zhou Chen's heart jolted.

An Immortal Emperor was a being standing at the very pinnacle of the cultivation world.

Even if they had fallen countless years ago, their tomb would still contain terrifying power.

Wangcai floated to the front of the stone stele, his small face full of excitement.

"It's here! It's here!"

"Master, that thing with the same Origin is inside the tomb!"

Zhou Chen did not enter immediately, instead carefully observing the stone stele.

The cracks on the stone stele were increasing, and the black gas was becoming denser.

Clearly, the thing suppressed within the tomb was about to break free.

"I'm afraid this tomb isn't suppressing the Heaven Burying Immortal Emperor himself."

Zhou Chen murmured to himself.

He extended his Divine Sense into the stone stele, wanting to check the internal situation.

As soon as he probed inside, a terrifying pressure erupted from within the tomb.

The pressure contained endless sorrow, anger, and resentment.

Zhou Chen felt a sharp pain in his mind and hurriedly withdrew his Divine Sense.

"What a strong obsession!"

He took a deep breath and activated his Immortal King Body.

His Physical Body emitted a faint golden light, isolating the pressure.

He pressed his hand against the stone stele and channeled the Immortal Spiritual Power within his body.

The Immortal Spiritual Power surged into the stone stele, resonating with the runes on its surface.

Rumble!

The stone stele let out a loud noise as a crack slowly opened.

Countless plumes of black gas surged from the gap.

The black gas transformed into a vortex, sucking Zhou Chen inside.

When Zhou Chen opened his eyes again, he had arrived in an unfamiliar world.

This was a hazy gray space with no visible boundaries.

The air was thick with intense sorrow, anger, and resentment.

These emotions were like physical substances, constantly battering Zhou Chen's Divine Sense.

"Is this… the Sea of Obsession?"

Zhou Chen frowned slightly.

He activated his Dao Heart to isolate these emotions.

Everywhere in the Sea of Obsession were fragmented images.

Zhou Chen saw a man in golden armor, holding a long spear, fighting a bloody battle against countless Outer Domain Evil Demons.

The man's strength was terrifying to the extreme; every thrust of his spear could slay dozens of demons.

However, there were far too many demons.

They surged forward like a tide, drowning the man.

The man let out a roar, burning his Essence Blood to perform a world-shaking strike.

The spear turned into a golden light, piercing the Void Realm and slaying countless demons.

However, he was also exhausted because of this and was corroded by the Evil Demon Power.

The image ended there.

Zhou Chen's heart was shaken.

"Is this the Heaven Burying Immortal Emperor?"

He took a deep breath and continued forward.

There were countless similar images within the Sea of Obsession.

Each image recorded a scene of the Heaven Burying Immortal Emperor's bloody battle against the Outer Domain Evil Demons.

The scenes were incredibly tragic and shocking to behold.

After walking for about a thousand miles.

A massive ancient bronze coffin appeared ahead.

The ancient coffin hovered in the Void Realm, emitting a terrifying pressure.

The coffin was covered in ancient runes.

These runes were like chains, binding the ancient coffin tightly.

And atop the ancient coffin, a metal Inscription flashing with chaotic light was emitting an aura that suppressed all things.

Two ancient characters were carved on the Inscription—Demon Suppressor.

Upon seeing the Inscription, the chaos bell inside Zhou Chen vibrated violently.

Wangcai flew out from the bell, shouting excitedly.

"This is it! This is it!"

"Master, damn! The aura of this Inscription is of the same Origin as mine!"

"As long as I absorb it, I'll be able to recover even more power!"

Zhou Chen did not hesitate, reaching out to grab the Inscription.

The moment his hand touched the Inscription.

Boom!

The ancient bronze coffin suddenly exploded.

Countless plumes of black gas surged from within, forming a massive figure.

The figure was pitch black all over, emitting terrifying Evil Demon Power.

Two clusters of blood-red flames danced within its eyes.

An aura of the seventh level of the Immortal King Realm!

"Finally… free…"

The figure let out a low roar, its voice filled with madness.

Zhou Chen's expression became grave.

This figure was precisely the Heaven Burying Demon Spirit, formed from the Fusion of the Heaven Burying Immortal Emperor's demonized vengeful spirit and the Outer Domain Evil Demon Power.

Its strength had already reached the terrifying seventh level of the Immortal King Realm.

Seeing Zhou Chen, a bloodthirsty light flashed in the Heaven Burying Demon Spirit's eyes.

"Human… flesh and blood…"

It opened its bloody maw and lunged toward Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen did not retreat, waving his hand.

The chaos bell flew out from his body, instantly expanding into a giant bell that enveloped him within.

Boom!
