Xu Xiwang was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat and almost collapsed to the ground. The white-clad woman's gaze was too sharp, making him feel uneasy all over, as if he were naked and exposed in front of her.
With just a glance from her, Xu Xiwang's body trembled uncontrollably, as if his soul would leave his body and fly into the blood-red river, never to escape the shackles of the sea of blood, becoming a ghost within it.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye.
The moment the woman in white turned her head, a bright and dazzling red light bloomed, like a blood lotus in full bloom, beautiful and alluring, illuminating the sea of blood.
Xu Xiwang stood frozen in place, his eyes glazed over in disbelief.
He saw it...it was a red lotus!
The red lotus leaves sway in the wind, blooming enchantingly, as if the most vibrant red lotus were blooming in a sea of blood.
"Xu Xiwang greets senior."
Seeing that the woman in front of him did not kill him directly, he finally composed himself and respectfully bowed.
The woman stared at him for a long time, then poked Xu Xiwang's forehead with a finger.
A small hole suddenly appeared between Xu Xiwang's eyebrows, and bright red blood mixed with chaotic energy gushed out, while the blood river in the woman's palm also flowed.
A drop of blood fell onto the small hole on Xu Xiwang's forehead.
The next second, the blood in Xu Xiwang's brow quickly congealed, closed, and healed, and everything returned to silence.
"It's you, yet it's not you."
The woman muttered to herself, her tone tinged with surprise and complexity.
"ah....."
Xu Xiwang suddenly let out a scream. His whole body felt like it was being torn into pieces, and the sound of countless bones breaking was incessant, making him almost faint from the pain.
"I wonder if you know me, senior?"
He managed to ask the question, feeling as if he had turned into a pile of broken bones, utterly miserable.
The woman didn't say much, but instead stretched out her palm and imprinted a star map into Xu Xiwang's mind.
At the same time, a blood lotus appeared on Xu Xiwang's neck!
Xu Xiwang's eyes narrowed as the star map entered his mind. He sensed endless mysterious runes, which seemed to expound the ultimate principles of heaven and earth, and also seemed to contain some kind of inexplicable rules.
"If you do not reach that universe to see me within a hundred years, you will surely die."
The woman said indifferently, then with a flick of her sleeve, the coffin slowly opened, taking the woman in white into it.
"boom!"
As the coffin closed, the universe trembled violently!
The strange bloodstains around them disappeared, and peace returned to the surroundings.
Inside the coffin, a peerless beauty lay peacefully asleep.
Xu Xiwang was left gasping for breath, the moment before giving him the illusion of death. He touched the blood lotus on his forehead, his eyes filled with confusion.
"Where exactly is that? Why do I have to go there?"
......
boom!
The sky trembled, and thunder roared!
In a vast and majestic palace shrouded in chaotic mist, a man dressed in a nine-dragon robe sat cross-legged.
He wore a crown, his hands were clasped in front of his abdomen, and endless demonic energy swirled around his body, radiating a terrifying aura of destruction.
Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat, as if he had sensed something. He abruptly opened his eyes, his gaze fixed on the distance, as if it could devour everything.
"You're not dead yet!"
The next moment, a chilling killing intent soared into the sky, causing the heavens to collapse!
This killing intent was far too fierce, like ten thousand swords returning to their source, shredding everything and shattering the vacuum. Even many great worlds in the universe could not withstand it and were torn to pieces.
He stood up and stepped out of the palace.
Countless powerful figures knelt on the ground outside the hall, trembling with fear. He took a step forward, and the sky suddenly darkened, with boundless dark clouds covering the entire star field.
Immediately afterwards, he raised his hand and pressed it towards the sky.
Boom!
The heavens and earth roared, and the sun and moon reversed their course.
A vast and powerful pressure descended, piercing through the sky and transforming into a giant hand that slammed down in one direction.
"By imperial decree, immediately dispatch a large army to the nearby universe. We demand to see them alive or dead!"
The man looked down at the crowd and said coldly.
"Yes, sir!"
Countless powerful figures obeyed the order and retreated, transforming into streaks of light that disappeared in all directions.
"Boom!"
However, at that moment, the sky suddenly cracked open, revealing a deep, dark abyss.
A gigantic hand, capable of obscuring the entire universe, reached out and slammed into that giant hand.
Bang!
The heavens and earth shook violently, the sky collapsed, and endless demonic energy permeated the air!
As the smoke cleared, countless powerful figures were killed or wounded, leaving only him standing with his hands behind his back.
"Hmph, so you're still alive after all."
A cold, sinister glint flashed in the man's eyes as he growled, "Even if you escape to the ends of the earth, I will bring you back!"
......
Xu Xiwang slowly opened her eyes, only to find that everything before her had vanished.
This valley is nothing out of the ordinary.
However, Xu Xiwang's expression was very serious, even somewhat flustered. He had actually forgotten what the woman in white looked like, only remembering a blood lotus imprinted on his neck.
"Was it all an illusion these past ten years? Or did my soul traverse space...?"
With a casual flick of his wrist, Xu Xiwang tore through space, instantly slowing the flow of time. "The laws of time and space are beginning to take shape... I wonder how Han Shuang and the others are doing on their adventures."
As soon as Xu Xiwang stepped out of the canyon, he was spotted by several quasi-emperors.
"Hey kid! You're robbing me, hand over everything you have!"
Over the course of ten years in this enormous graveyard, they plundered many rare and precious medicinal herbs and pills. Although their cultivation level did not improve, their combat strength soared.
They looked at Xu Xiwang with greedy expressions.
"Um?"
Xu Xiwang frowned.
Did someone with a death wish rob me as soon as I came out?
Seeing Xu Xiwang standing there in a daze, those quasi-emperors assumed he was stunned by their ferocity and immediately revealed cruel smiles.
"Hehe, this kid is pretty weak, he looks sickly, he definitely hasn't been practicing much."
A burly man grinned maliciously, eyeing Xu Xiwang with ill intent.
"He must have amassed a lot of good stuff to survive this long. We're rich today."
Another man licked his lips, drool dripping from his mouth.
"The third brother is right, hurry up and take out your valuables."
The others chimed in, all eager to get started.
"hehe."
Xu Xiwang suddenly laughed, his eyes sweeping contemptuously over the group, and said sarcastically, "Are you sure you want to rob me? You can still run now."
"Hey kid, you dare to show off?!"
A skinny, monkey-like man flew into a rage and immediately slapped him across the face.
Snap!
Xu Xiwang swung his hand back and slapped the skinny monkey away.
Pfft!
The skinny monkey lost half of his teeth, spat out a mouthful of thick blood, and his eyes were filled with utter horror.
