213: Chapter 212 The Spirit of the Heavenly TombIn the Eastern Region of the Central Plains, there stood the Ancient Emperor City.

This towering city, like an insurmountable giant, stood between heaven and earth.

Chen Yang looked up at the Ancient Emperor City before him, which was even more magnificent and majestic than Holy Pill City, and could not help but feel a surge of intense emotion.

It was truly the Ancient Clan’s vital bridge in the Central Plains; its grandeur and profound heritage made even a well-traveled expert like him take notice.

Chen Yang stepped steadily into the city and saw that it was bustling with people, incredibly lively.

He scanned the surrounding crowd and marveled inwardly; every person here had a cultivation level no lower than a Five-Star Dou Zong, and even the guards at the city gate were Peak Dou Zun experts.

It had to be said, the Ancient Clan possessed immense strength, was teeming with talent, and had countless cultivators; their way of doing things was indeed grand.

Chen Yang had not come here to obediently attend the Ancient Clan’s coming-of-age ceremony.

He had other plans in mind; he intended to sneak in directly and break into the mysterious and unfathomable Heavenly Tomb without the Ancient Clan’s consent.

Chen Yang’s mastery over space was extraordinary; currently, his comprehension of spatial laws was not much inferior to that of the Ancient Clan leader, Gu Yuan.

Once he entered the Heavenly Tomb, killed the Spirit of the Heavenly Tomb, and devoured the souls within—especially the soul of Xiao Xuan—it would certainly allow his own soul realm to break through to the Emperor Realm.

Breaking through to an Emperor Realm Soul meant he would be able to step into the Void Lightning Pool once again.

By then, after devouring all the lightning within and combining it with his profound insights into the Dao, breaking through to the second heaven of the Sendai realm would be just around the corner.

Once he reached the Great Energy realm, it would be equivalent to the Dou Di realm of the Fighting Qi Continent and the Supreme State of the Major Thousand Worlds.

When he reached that level, the entire Fighting Qi Continent would be under his control; who could become a Dou Di would simply be a matter of a single word from him.

Chen Yang sat in his inn room, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly to reveal a confident smile.

He slowly closed his eyes to rest, while simultaneously attempting to breach the boundary of the Ancient Clan’s small world.

Wisps of his true spirit emanated from his body like invisible threads, spreading through space to search for the location where the Ancient Clan kept the Heavenly Tomb.

”Found it!” Chen Yang opened his eyes abruptly, a gleam of excitement flashing within them.

As long as he found the location of the Heavenly Tomb, he was absolutely certain he could enter it.

Chen Yang gently raised his hand, and the aura around him surged instantly; he vanished from the inn in an instant and appeared before the Heavenly Tomb.

”Who are you?” The sudden appearance of Chen Yang threw the two Ancient Clan members guarding the Heavenly Tomb into a panic.

To be able to appear suddenly without them noticing, this person must be an expert above a Five-Star Dou Sheng.

After all, both of them were at the cultivation level of a Peak Dou Zun, and the Ancient Clan’s space was incredibly stable; ordinary cultivators simply could not traverse through it.

”Who I am is not important; you two should just go to sleep first.”

Chen Yang smiled slightly, but his smile carried an irresistible majesty.

Immediately, a massive coffin descended from the sky, carrying an endless sense of oppression, and locked the two inside.

As the coffin returned to Chen Yang’s hand, he stowed it away into his bitter sea.

Having dealt with the guards, Chen Yang began to attempt to enter the Heavenly Tomb.

The spatial barrier before him was as fragile as paper in his eyes.

In an instant, Chen Yang passed through the barrier, vanished from the Ancient World, and successfully entered the Heavenly Tomb ahead of schedule.

Inside the Heavenly Tomb, it was pitch black, as if it were the chaos before the birth of the universe.

In the distance, wandering remnant souls of Dou Zun emitted faint, indistinct whispers, adding a touch of eeriness to the gloomy environment.

Chen Yang looked at all of this, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly, and thought to himself: The time to become an emperor has arrived; as long as my soul power can break through to the Emperor Realm, breaking through to the Great Energy realm is a certainty.

As soon as Chen Yang entered the Heavenly Tomb, he felt a faint soul power constantly scanning him.

He smiled slightly, understanding in his heart that this Heavenly Tomb had also sensed the power of an uninvited guest like him.

”Spirit of the Heavenly Tomb, come out!” Chen Yang raised his head, and a great roar resounded throughout the entire Heavenly Tomb.

A powerful aura, like a surging tide, swept through every corner of the Heavenly Tomb.

Xiao Xuan, who was cultivating with his eyes closed, heard this roar and immediately opened his eyes, a trace of surprise flashing within them.

He never expected that someone would actually dare to challenge the Spirit of the Heavenly Tomb.

Xiao Xuan had only recently learned that the Heavenly Tomb had a spirit, and he had been gathering the soul power of the Spirit of the Heavenly Tomb, intending to offer it to his descendants.

But he could never have imagined that the intruder before him was not a spirit entity from within the Heavenly Tomb, but an expert from the outside world.

Chen Yang stood in place, and seeing that the Spirit of the Heavenly Tomb was reluctant to appear, the corners of his mouth curled into a cold sneer, and he said coldly: ”Spirit of the Heavenly Tomb, do you think I can’t find you just because you won’t come out?”

Chen Yang stopped speaking, slowly sat cross-legged on the ground, and closed his eyes.

In an instant, an incomparably terrifying soul suppression descended from the sky.

All the spirit entities in the Heavenly Tomb that possessed intelligence revealed expressions of fear.

Such powerful soul strength, although it had not reached the Emperor Realm Soul, was already the strongest realm below the Emperor Realm—the Heavenly Realm Great Perfection.

A phantom Chen Yang slowly rose from the body of the Chen Yang sitting on the ground; this was Chen Yang’s soul body, which could also be called his true spirit.

As the boundless soul aura permeated the area, everything in the Heavenly Tomb had nowhere to hide and was completely under Chen Yang’s control.

”Found you.” Chen Yang’s soul body sneered, instantly locking onto the hiding Spirit of the Heavenly Tomb.

The Spirit of the Heavenly Tomb possessed soul power at the late Heavenly Realm; as soon as Chen Yang entered the Heavenly Tomb, it had sensed Chen Yang’s terrifying nature, and it hid away, trembling with fear.

But it never expected that Chen Yang would still find it.

Before the Spirit of the Heavenly Tomb could react, Chen Yang’s powerful soul power instantly submerged it like a tidal wave.

Chen Yang looked at the massive ball of soul origin in his hand, smiled indifferently, and felt a sense of accomplishment.

Chen Yang returned to his physical body with this ball of soul origin, and immediately began a frenzied massacre within the Heavenly Tomb.

Wherever he went, all soul entities were spared nothing and were completely slaughtered by him.

These soul entities gathered in Chen Yang’s hand, turning into an incomparably massive ball of origin.

Chen Yang walked forward slowly, looked at the phantom man not far away, and said: ”Xiao Xuan, I have come to see you off.”

Xiao Xuan frowned slightly, his heart filled with shock and confusion.

He never expected that such a terrifying god of slaughter had come to the Heavenly Tomb, wiped out all the soul entities within, and now would not even spare him.

”Who, exactly, are you?” Xiao Xuan looked at the incredibly handsome young man before him and asked slowly.

However, Chen Yang had no intention of answering.

He simply raised his hand and operated the Undying Heavenly Art.

In an instant, a powerful devouring force surged out; Xiao Xuan had no time to resist at all before he was instantly devoured by Chen Yang.

Chen Yang looked at the blood pool in the distance and shook his head lightly.

The energy in the blood pool was, in the face of his current strength, no longer worth mentioning.

Subsequently, he left the Heavenly Tomb with the massive soul origin he had collected within.

He left behind an empty Heavenly Tomb for those who would come after.
