Chapter 1507: Yuan Shi's Inheritance

After killing four pseudo-God aliens and over 100 Saint aliens, Xiang Shaoyun could be said to have killed about one-third of the aliens on this battlefield. After he killed the pseudo-Gods, the battlefield abruptly fell apart and vanished.


This left Xiang Shaoyun standing in stupefaction before the grave. His environment was dusky, and a coffin lay ahead of him. Standing atop the coffin was a valiant man. The man wasn't handsome, but he had an air of arrogance and looked down upon the world around him. It was as though he shouldered the sun and the moon, stood upon the heavens, and dominated everything since the beginning of time.


After a while, Xiang Shaoyun recovered from his reverie and muttered, "Was the battlefield an illusion that not even my divine dao eyes could see through?"


He stepped forth and studied the man and the coffin. The man was vivid and lifelike with an indestructible body, and he confirmed that the man was real. The man appeared to be a God, but his actual strength was unknown. However, Xiang Shaoyun judged that the man was probably someone no weaker than his master.


Looking at the coffin, he also noticed that the coffin was made of undying divine wood. The undying divine tree was a tree at a much higher tier than the celestial darkdevil tree. There were probably only one or two of them in all creation. It was rumored that one such tree existed in the dominion, but it had been destroyed long ago. Surprisingly, this coffin was actually made of wood from such a tree. Just the coffin material alone was proof of how strong the person lying within it was.


And yet a man was standing atop one such coffin. Xiang Shaoyun gazed at the man and the coffin in a daze, wondering if the man was the coffin's owner, someone who had prepared his own coffin.


"Undying divine wood, is...this real?" muttered Xiang Shaoyun as he swallowed.


If others were to see this coffin, even Gods would bleed to obtain it. This wood had the undying property. If one could take even a bite out of it, one would gain immortality. It was an incredible material that could work miracles. Even Xiang Shaoyun considered bringing the coffin back to the Ziling Sect. This coffin was invaluable regardless of whether it was empty or not.


His gaze then landed on the man standing atop the coffin. He found to his astonishment that the man was looking at him. Before he could react, two primal chaos beams shot toward him.


Xiang Shaoyun was completely helpless as the beams entered his body.


A voice as loud as the first toll of the morning bell rang within his head, "There is always a better man out there, and there is always a wider world out there. The dominion might be large, but it is merely a drop in the ocean compared with the universe.


"During the invasion of aliens from outside the dominion, humans stood united, as they should. Together, humanity faced the enemies and defended the dominion. After 10,000 years, the aliens were finally expelled. The dominion was left in ruins, with humanity being near extinction. I, Yuan Shi, as the first guild master of the Guardians Guild, am ashamed. I thus discarded my broken body, left my inheritance behind, and stepped out of the dominion. I shall block the advances of the powerful aliens and guard the dominion..."


Xiang Shaoyun could see an unrivaled man leave his God Realm body behind and go after the aliens. The man went through countless rivers of stars, entered the lands of the aliens, and started his slaughter of aliens. He was selfless and only cared about protecting the dominion. His stubbornness was incomparable, winning even Xiang Shaoyun's respect.


Xiang Shaoyun had not imagined that the man before him was actually the Guardians Guild's first guild master, the Venerable Yuan Shi. Portraits of the Honorable Yuan Shi were worshipped all over the dominion, but the man before him looked incredibly different from the man in the portraits. This man looked much more extraordinary than the man in the portraits.


Xiang Shaoyun also found two additional strands of God Realm energy in his own body. The two strands were formed of primal chaos energy and were thick with the laws of Gods. Only those who had comprehended the laws of Gods would be able to transform their astral energy into God Realm energy, bringing their combat strength to a new height.


The two strands seemed minuscule, yet they had transformed Xiang Shaoyun's soul foundation into a divine soul foundation. The nine-petaled lotus that was his soul foundation finally bloomed. His soul was sitting in the middle of the flower amid a thick cloud of primal inception energy. His soul emanated a sense of mystery that was also pure. Strands of primal inception energy coiled around the soul, constantly nourishing it and helping it grow rapidly.


Xiang Shaoyun's astral cosmos sea had also benefited from the two strands of God Realm energy. His astral cosmos sea had grown even larger while a large amount of primal inception energy had entered his astral cosmos sea, pushing his cultivation level to peak third-stage Saint. He was also showing signs of entering the fourth stage.


Unsurprisingly, after his meridians were cleansed several times, he entered the fourth stage. With this advancement, his aura transformed, and he felt even stronger than before.


After helping Xiang Shaoyun break through, the two strands of energy remained in his astral cosmos sea. They continued emanating a powerful aura, as though they were going to continue to help him grow.


But at this time, Xiang Shaoyun forcefully suppressed his cultivation, forcing himself to stay at the fourth stage. If he didn't, the two strands could probably push him straight to the Great Saint Realm. After all, the two strands were formed from primal chaos energy that was much higher in tier than even the remnant God Realm energy he had absorbed at the Desert of Despair.


After Xiang Shaoyun stopped his growth, the man before him melted away, leaving only a token that seemed to be both gold and jade at the same time. When Xiang Shaoyun picked up the token, the coffin erupted with a powerful pressure that blasted him away.


Pu!


Xiang Shaoyun had just entered fourth-stage Heaven Battling Realm and had a combat strength that could match a pseudo-God, yet he couldn't withstand this single eruption. A mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth.


The aura emanating from the coffin grew stronger and stronger, causing the entire grave to shake as a large amount of death energy started gathering in the area. It was as though an ultimate zombie was about to walk out of the coffin.


"Kid, get out of there! The Zombie God has awakened. If you stay, you'll die," said the crow.


Noticing that a great danger was coming, Xiang Shaoyun hurriedly rushed away from the grave. Outside, he found that the 108 coffins had started shaking, and the seal around the grave seemed to have disappeared. Without any hesitation, Xiang Shaoyun rushed to the coffin containing his father. After taking the coffin into his astral cosmos sea, he spun around and left.
