The Holy Maiden Uncovers My Coffin When I Just Become An Emperor's Corpse-Chapter 241 Death God’s Servant!
Chapter 241: Chapter 241 Death God’s Servant!
The deepest layer of Death God Valley was a region so feared that even the father of the Little Asura King and the Little Ghost King dared not venture here!
It was originally shrouded in darkness, with not a glimmer of light.
Yet today, it was illuminated by a dazzling golden Buddha Light, piercing through the dark.
Within the Buddha Light, a woman clad in a nun’s attire was slowly making her way forward.
Blood trickled from the corner of her mouth, and her gaze was somewhat dazed.
This woman was none other than Shangguan Yunlian, the successor from the Emei Golden Peak Hengyun Mountain Buddhist Sect, who had escaped from the grasp of the Little Asura King, Little Ghost King, and the Ghost Princess!
"Cough, cough, cough!" Shangguan Yunlian coughed incessantly.
With each cough, more blood appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Bam!
Then, she could no longer support herself and collapsed to the ground.
The golden Buddha Light emanating from her body began to flicker.
This indicated that the Profound Qi within her was depleting.
"Did they, did they not follow me?" Shangguan Yunlian lay on the ground, looking back with her heart pounding.
Her eyes saw only the area nearby; beyond that, there was no sign of pursuers!
The silence in the darkness allowed her to relax somewhat.
"They didn’t follow!"
Shangguan Yunlian wiped the blood from her mouth, revealing a bitter smile.
"I didn’t expect the strong of the Ninth Restricted Area to join forces this time and target the successor disciples from various major sects.
They first let us lower our guard, luring us deeper inside..." she reflected inwardly.
Recalling their journey, how they had slain hundreds of Little Asuras and Little Ghosts, they thought they could easily obtain the Holy Water!
Who would have known, as they ventured deeper, formidable Asura Generals, Ghost Generals, and Ghostly Spirits suddenly appeared.
The cultivation of the successor disciples from the Emei Golden Peak Hengyun Mountain Buddhist Sect was no match for them.
Even though their cultivation techniques were meant to restrain the Asuras, ghost, and ghostly spirits, they couldn’t overcome them and were defeated one by one.
Even she could not escape the clutches of the Ghostly Spirits!
She was captured into the Death God Valley, bound to a rock wall.
In the end, with the help of many successor disciples from the Hengyun Mountain Buddhist Sect, she manifested an Abnormal Phenomenon by sacrificing her Root Bone.
Only then did she escape the grasp of the Little Asura King, Little Ghost King, and Ghost Princess, entering the deepest layer of Death God Valley!
If not for this, she would have been doomed!
"I must quickly recover and leave this place.
Escape the Ninth Restricted Area and report back to the elders of the major sects.
Let them know what has transpired within the Ninth Restricted Area."
Shangguan Yunlian sat up.
"If they knew that the successor disciples of the sects were all captured by the Asuras and ghosts, they would surely send someone to rescue them!
My fellow disciples could also be saved and healed!
Otherwise, if they perish, how could I face the world?
It was on the chance that they sacrificed themselves for survival that I live!"
She took a deep breath, swallowed an Elixir, and circulated the Profound Qi within her.
Gradually, the Buddha Light on her body began to shine once more.
Illuminating the surroundings, it allowed Shangguan Yunlian to see everything clearly.
Once she saw clearly, her expression changed.
Only now did she realize she was inside a prison constructed with massive bones.
The colossal bones were akin to towering pillars.
Causing anyone who looked at them to be filled with awe!
"Whose bones are these!" Shangguan Yunlian sensed something was amiss.
Her mind became much clearer!
*"I am gravely injured, and the Little Asura King and Little Ghost King catching up to me shouldn’t be difficult.
But they didn’t follow!
It wasn’t that I fled too quickly or too far for them to catch up.
But because this deepest place harbored dangers that even they feared!
They dared not enter!"*
Shangguan Yunlian thought of this and could no longer focus on recovering or healing her internal injuries.
"I must find a way out quickly!"
She struggled to stand, not turning back or walking straight ahead.
Instead, she headed in another direction, feeling there was great danger ahead.
"Huh?"
Her heart skipped a beat, and her Heart Realm trembled.
"Since entering the Ninth Restricted Area, this is the third time my Heart Realm has wavered!
It’s not due to danger nor injury."
Her pace quickened!
"It feels more like a calamity!"
Shangguan Yunlian knew that every successor disciple from the Emei Golden Peak Hengyun Mountain Buddhist Sect faced three calamities in their lifetime!
A calamity of life, a calamity of death, and a calamity of love!
"Is this the calamity of death?"
Her footsteps suddenly halted, as in the place her gaze reached, a massive bone structure appeared!
This was a femur!
"The edge of the cage!"
She hurriedly ran forward, but upon reaching it, she realized.
Behind the bone structure, there was a stone wall, offering no exit!
"Is the only way forward?"
The sound of bones rattling came, and the bone structure lit up.
Within the bones, an eerie light appeared.
At her feet, a peculiar array emerged.
Unceasingly spreading, reaching the deepest core!
"This is bad!"
Shangguan Yunlian was horrified.
She remembered reading about the detailed explanation of this Array Map in a forbidden book.
"A Sacrificial Array Map!"
She looked into the endless darkness ahead and began to retreat.
"Meeting the Little Asura King, Little Ghost King, and Ghost Princess still leaves me with a sliver of hope.
If I go deeper, there will be no place for me to rest when I die!"
At the same time, her inner power began to drain into the array.
Shangguan Yunlian hurriedly retreated, starting to run out.
A cold wind blew, chilling the back of her head, prompting her to turn around.
Behind her, a humanoid figure formed of eerie red light stood in the air, topped with a human skull.
Within the skull glowed a strange wooden Token with bewitching light.
Carved on the wooden token were two blood-red characters, Death God!
*"Death God? You’re still alive!"* Shangguan Yunlian exclaimed in shock. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
Death God!
One of the Ancient Evil Demon gods, but long believed to be slain by the Great Emperor and vanished for countless millennia!
"I am not the Death God, merely a servant who worships him!
A being that wished for the Death God’s reawakening!"
The human skull spoke, explaining its origins.
"Originally, I was preparing outside to sacrifice infinite power to prepare for the Deity’s resurgence.
But unexpectedly, a Dao Array Great Power etched a formation at the cost of his life, bringing me and Death God Valley into this forbidden zone!
For hundreds of years, living beings occasionally entered, allowing me to perform sacrifices!
But in the countless years that followed, no living creatures came!
I thought there was no hope for the Death God’s resurrection!
But today, you arrived!
Your physique is special, comparable to a Divine revival!
Sacrificing you to the Death God might just allow him to be reborn into the world!" the skull’s jaws clattered, speaking human words.
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Yunlian ran with all her might to escape.
"I absolutely cannot die here or let the Death God reawaken!"
Her face was grim!
To die at the hands of the Little Asura King, Little Ghost King, or Ghost Princess was one thing.
It would merely advance their cultivation, and they could still be restrained by higher-level cultivators.
But if the Death God were to be reborn and descend into the world,
it would spell disaster for the entire world!
As a successor disciple of the Emei Golden Peak Hengyun Mountain Buddhist Sect, she worshiped the Buddha!
Her duty was to save all beings, not send them to Hell!
"You can’t escape; the Sacrificial Array has already begun, your power is being drawn!
Offering your life for the Death God’s rebirth is an honor!
You should be pleased!
If the Death God ascends to the pinnacle, he might resurrect you!
Your death will not be in vain!" the human skull continued.
At this point, the Death God Token within the human skull began to turn.
