Evil Venerable of the Sword Dao Chapter 1727 - 214: Blood Coffin’s Tribulation Transformation
Previously on Evil Venerable of the Sword Dao...
Inside the Blood Coffin, a quietness prevailed.
It felt like the most primitive barbaric land, yet also like a warm homeland.
When Zhou Yan entered the Blood Coffin, he realized that this void was strikingly similar to the outer void.
However, this void appeared more complex and eerie.
Here, Zhou Yan sensed a different kind of vastness, an indescribable force.
This force, he could neither comprehend nor grasp, yet he was certain it was an immeasurably immense power.
Standing in the void, Zhou Yan found Pan Emperor appearing beside him.
Clearly, Pan Emperor had his own insights.
After carefully sensing for a long time, Pan Emperor eventually opened his eyes, showing a peculiar expression.
Zhou Yan knew that Pan Emperor also felt perplexed about this place.
At this moment, Lee Ran appeared too.
He seemed incredibly familiar with this place, as if returning home, and Zhou Yan could plainly feel that Lee Ran possessed a near-sovereign ability here.
"The Blood Coffin truly resists that strong allure, not only can it resist, but even absorb and refine it, forming a special energy to assist me in absorption and refining."
Lee Ran didn’t hide this fact and shared it candidly.
Now, Zhou Yan and Pan Emperor exchanged a glance, their unique feeling deepening.
"This place seems more complex than the outside void, representing a new higher space? If so, clearly, our realm isn’t the end!"
Zhou Yan remarked.
Pan Emperor expressed similar views.
Lee Ran pondered briefly, affirming, "It should be so. Currently, certain things cannot be confirmed. Thus, as the Blood Coffin delves deeper into the space channel, it will gradually become more certain."
As Lee Ran spoke, the Blood Coffin had already entered the space channel.
The void continually twisted, layers of singularities like unaligned fragments, constantly changing within the space.
The situation was like tiny particles performing erratic Brownian motion, having no corresponding rules.
Moreover, these changes were extremely rapid.
Zhou Yan and Pan Emperor could also feel this situation.
As for Lee Ran, his perception of everything about the Blood Coffin seemed clearer.
Time was fleeting, the Blood Coffin soon entered the depths of the channel, where endless allure was fully absorbed and refined, releasing layers of bizarre gleams.
Subsequently, the Blood Coffin writhed imperceptibly, inching toward the brightness in the channel.
But just then, the Blood Coffin transformed, splitting into two, with the coffin lid becoming Pan Emperor’s likeness, and the coffin body morphing into Zhou Yan’s form.
In this scenario, both Pan Emperor and Zhou Yan instinctively responded, immediately understanding Lee Ran’s plan.
Without Lee Ran needing to say more, Pan Emperor promptly released a surge of Bloodline Power and then condensed it, gifting it to Lee Ran.
Lee Ran injected this Bloodline Power into the ’Pan Emperor’ body’s interior.
At this point, Zhou Yan also condensed a part of his Bloodline Power and handed it to Lee Ran, who then injected it into the coffin body transformed ’Zhou Yan’ entity.
This way, the outer Pan Emperor and Zhou Yan showed no flaws, just like before.
At this moment, Lee Ran told Zhou Yan and Pan Emperor, "If expected, once we’re out, there might be peculiar changes. Regardless of these changes, don’t mind them; keep your mind stable."
"Then, when the outside parts face attacks or ’heavy damage’, we’ll fully strike at the Soul Emperor. It’s now entirely confirmed that the outside is a Killing Array, controlled by the Soul Emperor. Our sole advantage is having substitutes endure the destructive strike, unknown to him.
But, once he acts, he’ll inevitably discover this."
"At that moment, it’s our opportunity."
The external situation was already sensed, extremely complex and beyond expectations, even now, I couldn’t fully articulate it, but you can concentrate and hold breath, temporarily refraining from any changes to withstand the harsh external reality!"
"Additionally, the external situation is somewhat special, involving a brief adaptation in ability execution."
Lee Ran hesitantly explained the whole scenario to Zhou Yan and Pan Emperor.
With this confidence, both Pan Emperor and Zhou Yan maintained their peak states, poised to swiftly adapt to the unique external changes.
Thus, Lee Ran was finally reassured.
Soon, the bright space began to fade, while the derived Pan Emperor and Zhou Yan struggled immensely as they slowly penetrated that singular space.
When the two appeared slightly, when parts of their bodies exited the void, entering the crack within the third eye socket, the real Pan Emperor, Zhou Yan, and Lee Ran all noticed the situation.
Despite mentally prepared, neither could have imagined they’d emerge from an ancient corpse’s brow, from its heavenly eye.
Moreover, this corpse, whether it was Zhou Yan or the Pan Emperor sensing it, caused them both to tremble in shock, instantly and incredulously looking at Lee Ran.
Only, because the current situation was extremely complex and dangerous, neither Zhou Yan nor the Pan Emperor showed any panic. Instead, they immediately adapted at an astonishing speed to the changing energy aura outside.
At this moment, Lee Ran also controlled the virtual Zhou Yan and Pan Emperor, displaying obvious shock and dazed expressions.
Although he continued to crawl out of the peculiar crevice, it was clear he was somewhat lost.
Then, a terrifying crack of power gathered into a massive Sky Vaulting Giant Finger, integrating with the boundless Killing Array, evolving into an extremely fearsome killing intent.
This killing intent erupted abruptly, instantly splitting into two, and each kind of killing intent, seemed more than tripling its original force!
A threefold increase in strength would be enough to instantly kill Zhou Yan and the Pan Emperor!
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The dreadful power instantly pierced through the virtual bodies of Zhou Yan and the Pan Emperor, practically eradicating both.
However, after the attack was launched, the Soul Emperor immediately realized he was tricked!
At such a moment, to be countered unexpectedly, the Soul Emperor’s heart was startled and turned pale.
Yet, right at that moment, from the shattered flesh of Zhou Yan and the Pan Emperor, an ultimate attack suddenly emerged.
Penetrating the Array, Zhou Yan unleashed the Evil Venerate Sword Dao, with all the strength converged into a single point.
A point of Sword Dao slaughter.
The Pan Emperor, releasing the Evil Venerate Sword to the extreme, also gathered the Primordial Supreme Dao from generations and unleashed a singular point.
"Puff—Puff—"
Both attacks evolved into a rain of Tao Light, like two cycles of reincarnation, fiercely striking the Soul Emperor.
At this moment, the Soul Emperor was clad in an unknown black Combat Armor, garments fluttering, resembling a Sovereign of eternal Tao Establishment.
The two powerful attacks simultaneously landed on the Soul Emperor, who was caught off guard due to a failed maneuver, allowing for a covert assault.
However, such an attack that could nearly severely damage the Soul Emperor only inflicted minor wounds!
The Soul Emperor had indeed surpassed Zhou Yan and the Pan Emperor in terms of strength, only receiving threefold wounds instead of being heavily injured despite the powerful strike.
It was then that Lee Ran appeared.
The instant he materialized his body, his power had crossed into the Evil Venerate Realm.
Moreover, his strength seemed even more formidable.
However, the ancient corpse on the ground seemed to turn even more desiccated.
Nobody noticed this scene anymore.
Lee Ran’s fist shattered the Void, crossing through Rule Power and Space-Time intervals, directly punch striking the Soul Emperor’s brow.
"Boom—"
The immense shock force sent the Soul Emperor flying backward, and this punch caused more damage to the Soul Emperor than Zhou Yan and the Pan Emperor had.
In this punch, the powerful seismic force also disrupted the difficultly arranged Killing Array of the Soul Emperor.
The Soul Emperor was significantly astonished, his body soaked in blood, the black armor exhibiting cracks, with his brow showing a blood-red mark, continuously oozing blood.
"How could it be, Lee Ran, you, you—you—"
The Soul Emperor stared intensely at Lee Ran, and then instinctively glanced at the corpse lying on the ground, unable to hide the unspeakable terror in his eyes and face.
Suddenly, the Soul Emperor laughed heavily, saying, "I understand now. Our schemes are ultimately unable to calculate your presence. You are endless vitality, undying and indestructible, because you are fundamentally a transcendent existence! You are this corpse, and we are merely living beings existing within your Tao Establishment Space!"
"But now, we have turned the tables, transcended, and become the same level of existence as you!"
The Soul Emperor suddenly laughed, revealing the answer that both Zhou Yan and the Pan Emperor knew.
The enormous ancient corpse was precisely Lee Ran’s corpse.
And the Blood Crystal Coffin was Lee Ran’s Nine-layered Crystal Coffin where he was buried upon his death.
However, since Lee Ran was the ancient giant corpse, why was this corpse lying here dead, and why was Lee Ran still alive within his own Tao Establishment Space?
This seems to be a mystery, a colossal mystery.
Then, who killed the ancient corpse of Lee Ran?
And how did Lee Ran manage to take away the coffin that was meant to bury him?
This seems far from being a simple matter.
