Deep in the ancient tomb.
The exquisitely beautiful female corpse stood still, her complexion extrely somber, "They've actually escaped! Damn it!!!"
"I spent countless efforts to forge the Nine Layers Coffin Formation just to defy fate and ascend, and I was on the verge of success, only to have it ruined by two despicable n. It's truly infuriating to the extre!"
"Abandoning imnse glory, enduring endless loneliness, I slept in the dark coffin for hundreds of thousands of years."
"I was just a little bit away... just a little bit away..."
"Heaven, you have been too unfair to !!!"
"Ah!!"
The female corpse looked up and roared angrily, "I am not reconciled! I am not reconciled!!! Why did you treat this way! Why!!! Heaven, if you find displeasing, why didn't you kill sooner? You just had to strike down with a heavy blow after I had slept for hundreds of thousands of years! I will not accept this!!!"
It took a long ti for the female corpse's emotions to gradually subside.
"The palm technique used by that unattractive man earlier was a bit strange... to actually be able to shatter the pressure I released? Not simple at all!"
"It's all because I underestimated my enemies!"
"What do I do now?"
The female corpse's brows were tightly furrowed, "Reforge the Nine Layers Coffin Formation? Then continue to sleep? Or just accept my fate? Or perhaps... burst out and go on a killing spree, venting properly before my ashes scatter to the wind?" In an instant, several thoughts flashed through the female corpse's mind.
Gao Fei and He Hentian's speculation was correct, the female corpse, for so special reasons, dared not leave the ancient tomb, so she had to watch Gao Fei and He Hentian flee without pursuing them.
"Constructing the Nine Layers Coffin Formation is not an easy task; it requires a lot of precious materials and also consus a great deal of ti, and what I lack the most right now is ti."
"Being interrupted halfway, causing decades of hard work to go to waste, to start over is easier said than done."
"Sigh... "
The female corpse sighed deeply, "Trying to defy fate and ascend is really too difficult." The female corpse was a figure from hundreds of thousands of years ago, with a resounding reputation and awe-inspiring power. Because of so special reasons, she could not ascend to the Immortal Realm, and as her lifespan was drawing to a close, she needed to find a way out or face death.
Unwilling to just perish, she consulted a vast number of books and sought the opinions of friends from all paths, and finally decided to attempt the spell of 'defy fate and ascend.' If successful, she could shed her mortal body and ascend directly to the Immortal Realm, looking down upon the world from a high stance and no longer worrying about lifespan. If she failed, however, she would face divine punishnt, dissipating into nothingness without even a chance of reincarnation.
The spell to 'defy fate and ascend' was a spell from the Primordial Era, said to be created by a peerless genius nad Wu Ming. Wu Ming hailed from humble beginnings, frail and sickly since childhood, gasping for breath after just a few steps. His family didn't give up on him, always seeking dicine and doctors for him. Many physicians said Wu Ming would not live past the age of twenty, which greatly saddened his family.
Through a serendipitous discovery, Wu Ming ca across the abode of a cultivator and found a Cultivation Manual inside. One glance was all it took to captivate him, and from that mont on, Wu Ming began his path to cultivate immortality. Because his body was weak and his talents were poor, the difficulty of cultivation was imnse. Nonetheless, he never gave up and persisted with gritted teeth.
Persistence pays off for the diligent!
With Wu Ming's relentless efforts, he eventually achieved extraordinary results. He not only cured his chronic illnesses but also cultivated vast amounts of True Qi, becoming a young master cultivator.
Fate truly has a sense of humor!
Just as Wu Ming's life began to change, calamity struck!
Having inadvertently offended a Sect, Wu Ming was gravely injured by an expert of the Sect and had his Dantian shattered, leaving him powerless and unable to cultivate immortality ever again.
Wu Ming refused to live the rest of his life as a cripple. He moved into a secluded mountain forest, sitting atop a peak every day, watching the sunrise and sunset, the rainfall, and the snowfall... Years later, Wu Ming created a spell that shocked the world. He not only restored his Dantian but also advanced in strength by leaps and bounds. In just a few short years, he beca the number one master under the heavens. Those who had bullied or underestimated him were frightened out of their wits and dared not provoke Wu Ming any longer.
Later, Wu Ming ascended to the Immortal Realm in broad daylight.
The life of Wu Ming was a legend! From a weak and sickly invalid to ascending to the Immortal Realm, it was truly unimaginable!
The spell created by Wu Ming had a rather flamboyant na, "Defy Heaven's Mandate". It was widely rumored that no matter how poor one's natural talent, how weak one's body, or how old one's age, as long as one could successfully cultivate the technique of Defy Heaven's Mandate, they could ascend to the Immortal Realm and beco an immortal with a lifespan equal to heaven and earth.
Many people rushed to cultivate the Defy Heaven's Mandate technique, but sadly not a single person succeeded. Not only did they not succeed, but they also suffered varying degrees of injury. In mild cases, they were bedridden with deteriorating health, and in severe cases, they completely destroyed their Dantian, exhausted their True Qi, and beca completely incapacitated.
Gradually, no one attempted to cultivate the Defy Heaven's Mandate technique anymore...
The exquisitely beautiful corpse had also been forced to cultivate the Defy Heaven's Mandate technique, and what was hateful was that just as she was about to succeed, she was sabotaged by soone.
"I won't let you get away with this!!!" The exquisitely beautiful corpse snarled with a fierce expression and a low growl, "I will kill you with my own hands! Kill you!!!"
...
The entrance to the ancient tomb.
Gao Fei and He Hentian huddled together, speaking in low voices.
"It looks like we guessed right," Gao Fei said softly. "That female corpse truly doesn't dare to chase us out here."
"Mmhmm," He Hentian nodded. "This is a stroke of luck amid misfortune."
"This is an opportunity."
"Opportunity? What opportunity?"
"An opportunity to deal with the female corpse."
"Ah? You still want to confront the female corpse?" He Hentian's face changed drastically. "Don't act rashly, we've just barely managed to escape..."
"What? Losing your nerve? Scared?" Gao Fei looked at He Hentian with a disdainful gaze.
"It's not that I'm scared..."
"Enough, no more excuses," Gao Fei waved his hand. "If you're scared, you're scared. There's no need to hide it. How about this—you go back, and I'll stay here to deal with the female corpse."
"Do you have a death wish?" He Hentian furrowed his brows. "That female corpse is too formidable. You're definitely no match for her." As he said this, He Hentian added another sentence, "Even if the two of us joined forces, we wouldn't be able to defeat her."
"Don't forget she doesn't dare to chase us."
"You..."
"Use your brain and think, why doesn't she dare to chase us? What exactly is she afraid of?"
"This..."
"Is there a Formation inside the tomb? No, that can't be right, if that were the case, we wouldn't have been able to get out either. Could it be... she's afraid of the sunlight?" Gao Fei pondered to himself. "A woman who has slept for hundreds of thousands of years is afraid of the sunlight?"
"Afraid of sunlight?" He Hentian's expression changed as he seed to have thought of sothing. "Did you notice sothing?"
"What?" Gao Fei looked up and asked.
"I sense a strong and sinister presence from the female corpse."
"Sinister presence?"
"Yes, much like the aura one would find on a dead person. Of course, the female corpse is definitely still alive, but she possesses a strong aura of death..." He Hentian's explanation held a contradiction, but Gao Fei understood.
Gao Fei squinted his eyes and nodded. "A normal person shouldn't have the aura of death, which ans... the female corpse in the ancient tomb is not normal..."
