After entering the golden coffin, he thought he would meet the legendary Jade Emperor, but it was empty, completely bare.
There was no corpse, no treasure, only eight characters carved on the wall of the coffin.
"Where is the Jade Emperor?!" the Kunlun maggot cried out in alarm. "How is this possible! I remember he clearly perished, why is his body gone?"
Fang Xiu ignored the Kunlun maggot's shock and walked straight toward the eight large characters carved on the coffin wall.
He gazed calmly at the words, as if they contained some profound truth of the universe.
He didn't recognize any of the eight characters. Each stroke was extremely complex, seemingly without any pattern, yet it also seemed to contain some specific rule. Staring at them, he felt a slight dizziness.
"Eight characters!? Could it be that the legendary Heavenly Court's supreme inheritance, the Nine Dragons Supreme Law, only has so few characters? It should have nine characters, so why only eight?"
"My lord, my lord, aren't you even a little bit surprised?"
"There's no need."
Kunlun Maggot was taken aback, then flattered, "As expected of my lord, you immediately understood the true meaning of the great way being simple. This old servant was shallow."
"My lord, please memorize it quickly. The Nine Dragons Supreme Method is extremely profound, pointing directly to the Great Dao. It cannot be comprehended in a short time. Please memorize it first, and comprehend it later."
As Kunlun Maggot spoke, he also began to memorize desperately. He was not stupid. With such a supreme inheritance right in front of him, how could he remain unmoved? He did not want to be Fang Xiu's old servant for the rest of his life.
Fang Xiu ignored him and instead reached out his palm to gently stroke the eight ancient characters.
The moment his fingers touched the words, a dramatic change occurred.
Suddenly, the previously dull and lifeless text burst forth with eight dazzling rays of light, hum!
A series of heavenly sounds resounded, ethereal and mysterious, and an ancient and primordial aura, as if the world had just begun, spread out, and an invisible supreme power descended.
In an instant, Fang Xiu felt as if he had fallen into a state of chaos. In the depths of the chaos, the sea of clouds churned, as if all the myriad paths of the heavens were brewing within it, exuding an aura of eternal supremacy.
Suddenly, from the depths of chaos, a soul-shaking roar resounded, and eight ancestral dragons of different shapes suddenly appeared, each representing a supreme power, causing the chaos to surge.
They rushed straight towards Fang Xiu and surged into his body.
The moment the eight dragons entered his body, Fang Xiu finally understood the meaning of those eight words.
Heaven and Earth, the Primordial Emperor, the Universe in its primordial chaos!
boom!
The image shattered, and Fang Xiu returned to reality.
When he looked at the coffin wall again, it was completely blank.
Even the Kunlun maggot was stunned: "My lord? You've already grasped it?"
There's still half a sentence he didn't say, and this old servant hasn't remembered it yet!
Fang Xiu did not reply, because he did not know what had happened. Just by touching it, the words seemed to come alive and enter his body.
Now, with just a little meditation, he can clearly see those eight large characters in his sea of consciousness: Heaven and Earth, Mysterious Emperor, Universe, Primordial Chaos. (Not a typo.)
These eight characters are merely his translation into modern Chinese, but their actual meaning goes far beyond that. Rather than eight characters, they are more like eight scriptures, each containing an unimaginable wealth of information.
Just like a chip, it's the size of a fingernail but can store the text of a library.
These eight characters are like eight chips, and their name, or rather their summary, is Heaven and Earth, the Primordial Universe.
He tried to understand the profound truth behind it, but it was all in vain, as if he were blocked by a door.
Overall, he obtained the Nine Dragons Supreme Technique, but he didn't truly master it; aside from having eight large characters added to his mind, he gained nothing else.
However, his dwindling spirituality left him no time to think further.
Fang Xiu activated his ethereal transformation and quickly retreated, passing through the golden coffin and leaving the tomb complex. He did not stop at all along the way until he had completely left Kunlun Mountain, at which point he deactivated his ethereal transformation.
When he reappeared, he had arrived at the snow-capped mountain he had visited before.
Snow covered the land, ice bound the land for miles, and all life was gone.
"Is this the outside world?! Finally... finally out..."
The Kunlun maggot's excited voice rang out, but before he could finish speaking, a sudden change occurred!
Suddenly, eight-colored light surged from Fang Xiu's body. Then, the eight characters "Heaven and Earth, Profound Emperor, Universe and Primordial Chaos" burst forth from his body and shot out without pausing for even a second, disappearing into the void.
“Uh…” Kunlun Maggot was stunned.
Fang Xiu stood there, watching the Nine Dragons Supreme Law disappear into the distance, without saying a word.
As the Nine Dragons Supreme Law left his body, he could clearly feel that all the related memories in his mind were gone. No matter how hard he tried to recall, he could not remember how to write those eight characters.
After a long while, the Kunlun maggot finally reacted and exclaimed, "Words are sentient! Legend has it that some words containing supreme laws may have their own consciousness. I thought it was just a legend, but I didn't expect it to be true!"
I see!
The Nine Dragons Supreme Technique must have deliberately entered your body to make you remember it, and then waited for you to leave Kunlun Mountain before escaping!
"Alas! What a pity, my lord! This is the Nine Dragons Supreme Technique, the highest inheritance of the Heavenly Court!"
Kunlun Maggot felt a great sense of regret, but his tone carried a hint of schadenfreude. Clearly, he was overjoyed; what he couldn't have, he naturally didn't want Fang Xiu to have either.
But he soon stopped laughing.
"Ah!!! My lord, the Nine Dragons Supreme Law ran away on its own. What does it have to do with this old servant? Torturing this old servant won't do any good!"
An hour later, Fang Xiu finished the torture, then took out a scalpel and pointed it at his forehead.
Whoosh!
A flash of cold light, and Fang Xiu died!
........
........
Kunlun Snow Mountain.
A figure emerged from the void; it was Fang Xiu.
"This is the outside... What are you doing, Master?" Kunlun Maggot, who was about to express his feelings, was taken aback when he saw Fang Xiu's actions.
The moment Fang Xiu emerged from Kunlun Mountain, he immediately transformed, his body surging with jet-black light and accompanied by raging black flames. His silver hair cascaded down like a waterfall, and his one silver and one red eyes burned brightly.
"Domain Expansion. Avici Hell!"
A terrifying phantom of hell instantly materialized, stretching for thousands of miles and nearly covering the entire summit of the snow-capped mountain.
The instant Fang Xiu's domain was activated, eight rays of light surged from his body, and the Primordial Chaos of Heaven and Earth burst forth, shooting towards the distance.
Upon seeing the Nine Dragons Supreme Law appear, a glint of light flashed in Fang Xiu's eyes. He activated the Infernal Hell with all his might. Since fusing with the Heart of Forbidden Demons, his Infernal Hell had also acquired the sealing power of the Heart of Forbidden Demons.
Now that he has broken through to the fifth rank, he can command more and more forbidden and strange power.
Even a sixth-tier expert who enters the Avici Hell cannot easily escape.
