A fierce battle rages in the Stone Coffin Space between Human Heavenly Talents and the Demon Clan. Zhou Shen orchestrates the chaos, using the fallen warriors' essence to fuel a grander plan for the Demon Clan's resurgence. As the situation unfolds perfectly, external forces begin to notice the disturbance.

Had it not been for these circumstances, the frustration of witnessing the Human Heavenly Talents achieve breakthroughs ahead of schedule and seize the Ancient Desolate Springs would have been unbearable.

A degree of unease lingered regarding the smooth progression of his initial plan's phase. Yet, it was fortunate that Liang Sheng, a figure he perpetually held in cautious regard, chose not to intervene, thereby enabling the completion of his ultimate strategy.

Shifting focus back to the present, the three individuals materializing beyond the Stone Coffin Space were identified as Master Heavenly Fate, Master Heavenly Luck, and the independent cultivator known as Zi Zai.

Upon uncovering the clandestine truth of the Zhou Family Bloodline, they found themselves unable to maintain their composure, hastening their arrival at the Stone Coffin Space with utmost urgency.

A profound dread gripped them—the possibility that the Demon Clan was, as their suspicions suggested, engaged in the appropriation of the Human Bloodline, a scenario that would portend the ultimate extinction of humankind.

Should such a catastrophic outcome transpire, they firmly believed it would constitute their grave dereliction of duty, rendering them unworthy of the monumental legacy forged by the human race's esteemed progenitors.

Upon reaching the vicinity of the Beast Swamp, their gaze fell upon a multitude of stone coffins suspended in the heavens, offering no clear view into the actual conditions within the Stone Coffin Space.

Previously, during the Human Heavenly Talents' competition, the Stone Coffin Space had momentarily manifested within the Beast Swamp. However, at that juncture, they had not afforded it significant attention.

Reflecting now, they recognized their prior oversight, the consequence of which was their current tardiness. Had they possessed the foresight of their present understanding, they would have acted with unhesitating decisiveness, dismantling the Stone Coffin Space without a second thought.

However, who could have possibly anticipated the Demon Clan's sheer cunning? At this very moment, the Zi Zai independent cultivator discreetly observed Liang Sheng's lifeline token, expelling a breath of relief as he confirmed his disciple's immediate safety.

With this reassurance, he turned his attention to the visibly agitated Master Heavenly Fate and Master Heavenly Luck, addressing them with haste. He had never before witnessed such impatience from them; their usual serene demeanor, akin to banished immortals, was conspicuously absent.

“Do not be concerned; my disciple remains secure for the time being. This suggests the situation has not yet devolved into its most dire state.

Nevertheless, complacency is not an option, as conditions can shift abruptly. Presently, our intervention is the only recourse. Any other party would prove ineffectual.”

In response, both Master Heavenly Fate and Master Heavenly Luck offered affirmations. It was precisely this critical juncture that compelled them to depart from the Human Sacred Land and undertake this personal expedition.

Observing their renewed composure and capacity for reasoned discourse, the Zi Zai independent cultivator proceeded with his inquiry:

“What course of action should we adopt moving forward? Is a forceful entry into this Stone Coffin Space warranted? And upon infiltration, should we exercise restraint or commit our full might?”

Master Heavenly Fate responded with unwavering conviction, “We must commit our full might. To hold back would be a testament to our timidity. Should we falter now, it is feared that the future of the human race will cease to exist.”

“Very well, let us proceed according to this resolve!”

The Zi Zai independent cultivator harbored no objections, as this decision perfectly aligned with Master Heavenly Fate's character—that of proactively shaping one's destiny.

To passively await fate's decree, rather than acting independently, was a disposition more characteristic of Master Heavenly Luck.

This thought prompted the Zi Zai independent cultivator to cast a discerning glance toward Master Heavenly Luck, contemplating his counterpart's potential perspective. He harbored a suspicion that Master Heavenly Luck might hold a divergent view.

After all, the celestial omens remained clear, betraying no indication of humanity's impending doom. Their entire undertaking stemmed from their conjecture concerning the Demon Clan's treacherous scheme, thus necessitating this present expedition.

To the Zi Zai independent cultivator's surprise, Master Heavenly Luck concurred with Master Heavenly Fate's assessment on this occasion. This unexpected agreement left him momentarily bewildered, but he swiftly inferred that the gravity of the situation likely surpassed even his initial estimations.

However, there was no turning back now. Having reached a consensus, the Zi Zai independent cultivator initiated the action consciously.

When it came to breaching spatial confines, the Free Gate sect was unparalleled; claiming any other as superior would be an act of sheer audacity! Indeed, how could those who embodied freedom be easily ensnared? This very principle contributed to the Zi Zai independent cultivator’s standing as an equal to Master Heavenly Fate and Master Heavenly Luck, despite his perceived inferiority in certain aspects.

Precisely as the Zi Zai independent cultivator shattered the spatial barriers, “Zhou Shen” managed to regain his equilibrium.

Even with the Human Sacred Land now alerted, considerable time would be required for them to overcome the spatial constraints. This delay, he was certain, would not impede the unfolding of his meticulously crafted plans.

He gazed down upon the Human Heavenly Talents still locked in furious combat. Though their strength had undoubtedly grown with each kill, in "Zhou Shen's" perspective, they were nought but mere pawns destined for his grand scheme.

Their struggles were utterly futile, merely the death throes of those trapped!

The Stone Coffin Blood Net was already established. Having navigated the most perilous phase, he felt no further unease regarding unforeseen complications. Now, with ample time, there was no imperative to court further danger.

With this realization, his apprehension about Liang Sheng lurking in ambush diminished considerably. He even found himself developing a keen interest in the unfolding battlefield drama.

Countless Demon Tribe Warriors had fallen or sustained grievous wounds, yet it held no consequence. Ultimately, the future of the Demon Clan rested upon the human bloodline!

The sheer exhilaration of siphoning away all of humanity's fortune caused "Zhou Shen's" countenance to flush. He pondered if, in ages past, the humans had experienced a similar sensation.

The human progenitors, by imitating the very methods of the Demon Clan, had advanced incrementally, eventually supplanting them as the dominant force in this world.

From that point forward, the Demon Clan's influence began its inexorable decline. After eons had passed, they had finally awaited this opportune moment for their resurgence.

Upon recalling this, "Zhou Shen" found his fists clenching involuntarily. He absolutely could not falter; losing was simply not an option.

Kill! Kill! Kill!

The more savage the engagement on the field, the nearer "Zhou Shen's" meticulously crafted plan drew to fruition. However, precisely at this juncture, a sharp cracking sound unexpectedly resounded. Though not exceptionally loud, it compelled "Zhou Shen" to instantly direct his gaze skyward.

For the spatial seal of the Stone Coffin had been breached!

How could this be?

How was such swiftness possible?

"Zhou Shen" was acutely aware of the formidable restraining power inherent in the Stone Coffin Space. Contemplating this, a sliver of alertness arose within him, yet he refrained from succumbing to undue alarm.
