Even if it managed to survive by a stroke of luck from the relentless obliteration of the Heavenly Path, it would eventually be transcended by the Embalmer lineage. Although the group of humans below seemed relatively friendly during this Boundary Induction, once it left this place, its existence as a fierce beast would be no different from a potent elixir for the Embalmers—an enemy to life and death! That was a scenario it did not wish to see.
Therefore, even when threatened by the Heavenly Sea Dragon and suppressed by the power of the Xuanming Beast, Wuliao had decided to fight with all its might. It was dissatisfied with its current existence and wanted to rebel! It aimed to become a Boundary Soul and transcend its limitations.
Jiang Chen shuddered as his entire body trembled with dark green fur bristling, his crimson eyes glowing with a ghostly light. Wuliao's words did resonate with him to some extent; however, what truly attracted him was not the promise of becoming a Boundary Soul but rather Wuliao's potential relationship with the Embalmer lineage after its success.
The young man below possessed extraordinary roots, something Jiang Chen had never encountered in his countless years. Even observing those who protected him, he could sense this young man's standing within the Embalmer lineage. After all, several elders and a middle-aged man clad in an Azure Robe emanated a deathly threat in his perception!
If he helped Wuliao become a Boundary Soul, then through that connection, it might genuinely persuade the Embalmers to agree to his terms—never to embalm him! After all, as one of the Primordial Four Corpses, he was already beyond the Five Elements and transcended the cycle of reincarnation. In his view, in this world where all races had vanished and only humanity remained supreme, the only danger lay with this group of Embalmers. If he achieved his wish, he could simply restrain himself in the future, cease his malevolence, and exchange it for eternal freedom—what could be more beautiful than that?
With these thoughts in mind, Jiang Chen finally steeled himself and nodded.
"Alright, I will lend you a hand. But I do not wish to become a Boundary Soul; I want you to clear my connections and ensure that the Embalmer lineage will never embalm me. Of course, I won't make it too difficult for you; I will swear an oath to never commit evil again."
"Hahaha, how could that be difficult! Senior Jiang Chen, let us experience today just how powerful this ancient divine beast is that is said to have the Four Spirit Bloodline flowing through its veins!"
With Jiang Chen's assurance, Wuliao felt emboldened and without hesitation they rushed into the Embalming Coffin Realm.
As for the countless lost souls in the forest below, even the Ancient Rock Beast and Flame Sparrow Phantom struggled internally but ultimately dared not step into that realm. After all, their levels and strengths were simply too inferior compared to those four! The gap between them felt like an insurmountable chasm...
On the desolate plains of this illusory world, the Xuanming Beast stood against the sea and grounded itself on land. Dark yellow air currents and deep blue light beams continuously emerged around it and merged into its body. Its form rapidly expanded at a visible rate until it broke through one hundred meters in an instant! The Xuanming was inherently attuned to earth and water powers; this terrain greatly enhanced its strength.
Meanwhile, the Heavenly Sea Dragon soared into the sky above the ocean, twisting and turning as it summoned storms. In an instant, dark clouds gathered with thunder crashing and winds howling; torrential rain poured down relentlessly. The towering waves roared louder than thousands of troops charging forth as if they were about to engulf the entire projection world! Truly worthy of its name—the Heavenly Sea Dragon.
At this moment, Jiang Chen stood amidst a barren land, howling towards the sky as waves of Primal Aura converged upon him. These air currents swirled rapidly around him as if they had torn apart space itself to completely conceal his figure; only his eyes radiating a dim red light could barely discern through this Primeval aura! Qian Mo's Embalming Coffin Realm was akin to emerging into existence—a realm similar to Primordial Chaos—providing Jiang Chen with an inexhaustible supply of Primal Aura that felt like a great boon.
