The Holy Maiden Uncovers My Coffin When I Just Become An Emperor's Corpse-Chapter 242: This Punch, Overwhelming!

"The might of the Saint King!" The human skull clattered up and down, producing a voice that sounded like a person speaking.

Bang!

Shangguan Yunlian, who was running outward, felt a heavy weight upon her and fell to the ground.

She felt an overwhelming pressure!

*It was so suffocating she couldn’t breathe!*

"Where is this pressure coming from?"

She tried to get up again, but she had no strength left and could only struggle forward on the ground.

She was already injured and physically weak.

Then, having part of her strength siphoned off by the Sacrificial Array.

Confronted by the encroaching might of the Saint King, she simply couldn’t withstand it.

As Shangguan Yunlian struggled, she heard the words spoken by the human skull and was utterly shocked.

"The might of the Saint King? There’s still a living Saint King in the Ninth Restricted Area!"

Immediately, her face went pale as she collapsed to the ground.

"I am suppressed by the might of the Saint King here, and it won’t be long

before the Sacrificial Array sacrifices my physique and soul completely to the Death God.

*It seems the revival of the Death God is unstoppable!*

*I am a sinner to the entire world!*

*I have let my fellow sisters down, and I’ve failed everyone in the human world!"

Shangguan Yunlian’s entire body lay prone on the ground, without a shred of strength left to struggle.

"Today, I’m going to die here!" she thought to herself.

Her eyelids grew heavy, and as she lost consciousness,

the human skull raised its bony head, looking outwards.

Eyeless, he could nonetheless see extraordinarily far, thanks to the wooden plaque inscribed with the words "Death God" within the skull.

"Where is this might of the Saint King coming from?"

Through the darkness, he saw Asura Generals, Ghost Generals, and ghostly figures!

Among them were disguises in human form, Little Asura King, Little Ghost King, and Ghost Princess.

"Kill them for me!"

He heard the Little Asura King shouting and advancing to the front.

He saw a golden figure.

"It is a Saint King’s corpse, retaining the residual pressure of a Saint King, along with the Saint King Physique!

Moreover, this corpse has been refined into some kind of special existence!" the human skull said in a grave voice.

"Not good!"

He saw the Saint King’s corpse raise a hand.

Very slowly!

Just like a three-year-old child, slowly lifting its hands.

Clenched its fist, getting into stance, and then punched towards their side.

If the punch had come from a mere three-year-old child, it could have been ignored.

Because the physique of a three-year-old child was very weak, the resulting force more so—very weak!

A strike might cause only the slightest ripple in the air.

But this was no three-year-old child; it was a Saint King with a powerful physique!

Even without the Saint King’s strength and Dao Essence,

without the Dao Skill of the Saint King, its powerful physique alone was unchallenged by anything not of Saint Level!

"A bunch of idiots!" the human skull cursed loudly!

As soon as the words left his mouth,

Boom!

The Saint King’s corpse delivered a punch that was deafening.

With sheer physical might, it tore through the void.

It created shockwaves in the air, forming a violent whirlwind.

This punch was truly devastating!

In front of the Saint King’s corpse, one Asura General after another couldn’t approach before their bodies collapsed into ash amidst screams.

Each Ghost General was further twisted and deformed by the shattering void.

The Ghost Spirits were sharing the same fate as Ghost Generals, frantically shapeshifting, about to be devoured by the void.

The Little Asura King, Little Ghost King, and Ghost Princess who had just donned human skins

saw their bodies split open, revealing their true forms.

"What kind of power is this?" the Little Asura King shouted in terror.

As soon as his physique appeared, it was pierced, the Little Ghost King and Ghost Princess also shredded by the turbulent void.

*Forcing themselves to stabilize with their power,*

*the punch’s force reached distances unknown!*

*All the way, about to penetrate the deepest layers of Death God Valley!*

"They forced this woman into the Sacrificial Array, giving me hope of reviving the Death God!

I should be grateful to them!

But they should never, ever anger such an existence!

No!

*I cannot let hope be extinguished!*

*I must defy fate!"*

With bizarre strength, the human skull’s hands transformed into human-like hands and lifted.

"I must block it!" His jaws clattered incessantly, making sounds.

"Just a bit more, and the Death God can be reborn. I cannot let my ten thousand years of effort come to naught!

I want the Death God resurrected!"

Inside his skull, the plaque engraved with "Death God" spun continuously.

Bizarre energies were emitted by him endlessly.

They transformed into door-like entities, guarding the very outermost layer of the Sacrificial Array.

The blocking force just took shape, and the power unleashed by the Saint King Battle Physique swept through.

In front of this punch, those bizarre forces stood no chance.

They were immediately penetrated, subsequently shattering the massive skeleton making up the Sacrificial Array.

The glow on the ground’s Array Map flickered for a moment.

"The array must not extinguish!" cried the human skull.

As he watched Shangguan Yunlian lying on the ground, her power near depletion,

the Sacrificial Array had already begun extracting her physique and soul.

The human skull disintegrated abruptly, and the plaque with "Death God" inscribed soared out.

It transformed into a strange barrier, enveloping Shangguan Yunlian.

At the cost of his own life, he ensured the continuation of the Sacrificial Array.

In his eyes, Shangguan Yunlian had to perish, and all of her power had to be sacrificed to the Death God.

He sought the revival and reawakening of the Death God into the world!

Whooosh!

The force of the punch shattered the Sacrificial Array entirely, turning all its framework to ash.

Curling on the ground was the figure of Shangguan Yunlian, still alive.

A wooden plaque inscribed with "Death God" lay upon her.

The strange power from the plaque vanished without a trace.

"In the end, it failed..."

The voice of the human skull echoed in the void, then dissipated and vanished.

Within Death God Valley, the Successor of the Heavenly Sword Sect and the Successor of the Tianling Sect

beheld the nearly kilometer-long passage blasted through by that golden figure, each one in utter awe.

"What kind of punch technique is this?" the Successor Disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect and the Successor Disciple of the Tianling Sect exclaimed in astonishment.

*Too powerful!*

Sheng Chuqing, Feng Xue, and Yun He, the three of them.

Gulp!

Each swallowed hard; the punch was terrifying!

They were so shocked that they couldn’t speak!

Yang Yan looked at the destructive power unleashed by controlling the Shuo Jin Saint King Battle Physique to deliver that punch!

He nodded slightly, then shook his head!

He was not satisfied with the punch!

The power, he thought, was decent since he still couldn’t fully control the Saint King Battle Physique.

He hadn’t completely accessed the abilities of the Saint King Battle Physique!

The power from the punch was already quite formidable!

Once he fully mastered it, he was sure he could surpass this!

What dissatisfied him was the punch’s impact range, thinking it wasn’t enough!

Because the punch generated power from the movement of the powerful physique.

The force that erupted was a straight line, radially outward!

All the Asura Generals were dead, but the Little Asura King, not within the punch’s range, only lost much of its physique, with just a head and two feet remaining.

As for the Little Ghost King and Ghost Princess, they lacked physical form, thus unaffected by the punch’s force.

But it was due to the punch piercing the void that they had much of their bodies swallowed by the void, leaving only their Original Ghost Spirit Body.

Yang Yan didn’t care; he knew why the Little Ghost King and Ghost Princess survived.

"If the punch had traveled a bit farther, or if the impact range was wider, then the Little Asura King would have been dead for sure!

Never mind!

Once I fully control it, if one punch isn’t enough, I’ll deliver another!

Now that they’re not dead, it’s good; I can thoroughly devour the Little Asura King.

In addition to the Little Ghost King and Ghost Princess!

I can devour them together to restore any lost spiritual power!" Yang Yan thought.

If the Little Asura King knew Yang Yan’s thought was that he didn’t kill him in one punch, he’d be livid.

But the Little Asura King at this moment had no mind to think of anything, having just one head left.

If he weren’t a peculiar existence, he would’ve been dead long ago!

His head floated in the air, dazed.

*He was dumbfounded!*

"How could it be so strong!" the Little Asura King mused.

The Little Ghost King and Ghost Princess steadied themselves and breathed a sigh of relief.

"That was close; we almost didn’t make it!"

Suddenly noticing Yang Yan’s gaze fixated on them, they shivered.

"Little Asura King, run!"
