Under One Person: Starting from the Inheritance of Gods

Chapter 432 The Ending of the Ghost Blows Out the Light World
Deep within the Ghost Cave, a chilling wind howled, and nine black jade chains stretched taut, winding down like living things, reaching straight to the bottom of the cave, as if connecting to another world.

The chains were engraved with obscure and difficult-to-understand inscriptions of the Heavenly Dao, faintly glowing with an eerie light, as if they could suppress all evil spirits.

Ma Xianhong's gaze swept over Hu Bayi, Fatty Wang, and Shirley Yang, a slight smile playing on his lips.

"You three, come here."

Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang exchanged a glance, while Shirley Yang looked at Ma Xianhong warily, but eventually stepped forward.

“You bear the mandate of heaven, and today you will personally pull up the remains of the serpent god.”

Fatty Wang's eyes widened: "What? You want us to pull it? This thing looks heavier than a train!"

Li Chunfeng laughed and said, "Don't worry, the chains have their own divine power. You just need to use your strength."

Yuan Tiangang sneered: "If you don't even have this much courage, what are you talking about regarding destiny?"

Hu Bayi took a deep breath, stepped forward and grabbed three of the chains, and said in a deep voice, "Fatty, Shirley Yang, lend a hand!"

Fatty Wang swallowed hard, gritted his teeth, and grabbed the other three ropes, not daring to look down at all, knowing he had a fear of heights. Shirley Yang, on the other hand, grabbed the last three ropes without hesitation.

At the very moment when all three exerted force simultaneously.

"boom!"

The Heavenly Dao inscriptions on the chains suddenly lit up, and a strange power surged into their bodies through their arms, as if endless strength was bursting forth from the depths of their blood!
Within the Heavenly Dao Space of the Ghost Blows Out the Light world.

The Black Emperor, which had been lying down snoring, suddenly pricked up one ear and stood up abruptly. It looked in a certain direction with its pupils containing golden Dao Wheels of Rules, which was the location of the Ghost Cave.

Then, he lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and the golden light in his eyes suddenly brightened.

Above the Ghost Cave.

"Pull!" Ma Xianhong shouted in a low voice.

The three gritted their teeth and exerted their strength, and the chains actually began to slowly rise!
"rise!"

Hu Bayi gave a low shout and pressed down, pulling the chains repeatedly.

In an instant, the entire Ghost Cave trembled violently, as if some enormous creature was being forcibly dragged up. Rock fragments rained down from the cave walls, and Hu Bayi and the others nearly fell into the abyss, losing their footing.

At the same time, a deafening roar came from the depths of the ghost cave.

Fatty Wang's forehead veins bulged as he roared, "Old Hu! This thing is even more strenuous than pulling a millstone!"

Hu Bayi gritted his teeth: "Stop talking nonsense, you bastard! Push harder!"

A strange light flashed in Shirley Yang's eyes. She felt that the blood in her body seemed to resonate with the chains, as if she was destined to do this.

Unbeknownst to her, the red, pupil-shaped brand on her back was now emitting a glaring crimson light, as if it were being burned.

finally--

"Boom!"

An extremely cold aura surged out from the depths of the ghost cave, accompanied by a piercing hiss, as if a thousand snakes were screaming at the same time.

Immediately afterwards, a huge phantom snake head, bound by nine black jade chains, was forcibly pulled out of the ghost cave and slowly emerged from the darkness!
The remains of the serpent god!

It was a snake's head reduced to bones, with eerie blue flames burning in its empty eye sockets. The snake bones were entirely black, covered with strange patterns, and its jaws opened and closed, emitting a silent roar.

However, the power of the Heart Lock tightly bound it, preventing it from breaking free. Inside the illusory snake head were five treasure boxes, containing the true sealed remains of the snake bones.

Yuan Tiangang sneered: "A mere skeleton dares to cause trouble?"

The illusory snake head struggled and twisted incessantly, while the remains of the snake god, bound by the Heart-Piercing Lock, struggled wildly, the chains taut and emitting a teeth-grinding grinding sound.

Ma Xianhong looked at Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang and hurriedly said, "Gentlemen, if you don't act now, when will you?"

Li Chunfeng nodded, and with a flick of his sleeve, a golden flame flew out. It was the ignition formed from the will of humanity, which split into countless golden flames in mid-air and wrapped around the snake bone.

Yuan Tiangang stepped forward and placed his palm on the chains. The powerful Qi contained the power of the Dao Lord of the Heavenly Dao poured into them, and the Heavenly Dao inscriptions on the chains suddenly lit up, burning the snake bones like raging fire.

"Roar---!"

The serpent god's remains let out a painful roar, the ghostly fire in its eye sockets flickering violently, as if trying to break free. However, the power of the Heart-Piercing Lock was too domineering, and with the suppression of Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng, it was simply unable to resist.

Gradually, the illusory snake head was burned smaller and smaller, and the Heart-Piercing Lock continued to shrink, eventually landing on the five treasure boxes.

Finally, the treasure box was completely dragged out of the ghost cave, suspended in mid-air, and firmly imprisoned by chains.

Ma Xianhong breathed a sigh of relief, reached out and beckoned, and the Heart-Piercing Lock, carrying the true remains of the Serpent God, flew back into his hand.

Ma Xianhong nodded in satisfaction and looked into the void: "Indeed, the chosen one is favored by the Heavenly Dao of this world."

Yuan Tiangang watched coldly and said indifferently, "Although this snake god is dead, his resentment has not been quelled. After bringing him back to the Juntian Realm, he still needs to be suppressed."

“That’s only right!” Ma Xianhong said with a smile.

The next moment, the entire ghost cave suddenly trembled violently, as if it had lost its supporting core.

The rocks on the cave walls crumbled inch by inch, and countless fragments of rock fell down. A chilling roar came from the bottom of the abyss, as if some enormous thing was collapsing.

Hu Bayi's expression changed drastically, and he grabbed Fatty Wang and Shirley Yang, pulling them back several steps: "Oh no! This ghost cave is about to collapse!"

Fatty Wang's eyes widened: "Holy crap! We just pulled this thing up, and it's already falling apart? It's so flimsy!"

Shirley Yang stared intently into the depths of the Ghost Cave, and whispered, "No... it's not the Ghost Cave that's collapsing, it's the imaginary space below!"

The once dark void at the bottom of the Ghost Cave now resembled a shattered mirror, with countless cracks spreading out to reveal the twisted and chaotic darkness behind it.

A violent spatial chaos erupted from the crack, swallowing up even the light in its path.

Li Chunfeng frowned: "The Imaginary Space and the Serpent God's Remains were originally one. Now that the remains have been taken, this space is naturally difficult to maintain."

With a wave of his sleeve, Yuan Tiangang created a golden barrier that blocked the incoming spatial turbulence. He then looked at Ma Xianhong.

"Fellow Daoist, it's time to make a move!"

Suddenly, Ma Xianhong raised his hand, and twelve beams of azure light shot out from his sleeve, transforming into twelve crystal-clear pearls that hung above the Ghost Cave.

"Certainly!"

With a low shout, the twelve Sea-Stabilizing Pearls suddenly emitted a dazzling blue light, and a vast, ocean-like suppressive power poured down.

The raging spatial turbulence seemed to be smoothed out by an invisible hand, and the collapsing imaginary space was frozen in time, frozen at the moment of shattering.

Fatty Wang opened his mouth wide and pointed at the twelve floating pearls: "Old Hu! These... these pearls are even brighter than luminous pearls!"

Hu Bayi stared intently at the Sea-Stabilizing Pearls, feeling as if each pearl contained a vast ocean within it, the surging power making his breath catch in his throat.

Ma Xianhong formed hand seals, and the twelve Sea-Stabilizing Pearls slowly rotated, connected by azure light patterns, forming a great array to suppress the realm.

Fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, clearly indicating that maintaining this formation had taken a great toll. Ma Xianhong said to Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng, "Please, both of you, take charge of the formation for me for now. I need to collect this imaginary space." Then, a bucket-shaped magic weapon appeared in Ma Xianhong's hand, which was the Hunyuan Golden Bucket.

In mythology, it contains a vast amount of spatial divine power, with a capacity as large as the universe.

This battle has existed since the beginning of the world. It is infinitely mysterious and can contain all the treasures of the world. It also has an extremely strong and unstoppable suction power to attract immortals and objects. Once the golden light comes out, it is inevitable to escape.

Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang exchanged a glance and simultaneously stepped forward.

Li Chunfeng spread his sleeves and lightly touched the void with his fingertips. Instantly, the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams evolved into various Daoist characters, which resonated with the twelve Sea-Stabilizing Divine Pearls to suppress the earth, water, fire, and wind.

Yuan Tiangang snorted coldly, made a hand seal, and nine purple-gold light wheels suddenly appeared around his body. Each light wheel was engraved with celestial and human Dao patterns, and the vast Qi flowed into the great formation like a celestial river pouring in.

"boom--!"

The entire formation stabilized instantly, the trembling ghost cave came to a complete stop, and even the falling rubble froze in mid-air, as if time had stopped.

Seeing this, Ma Xianhong smiled slightly: "Alright! Thank you both!"

After saying that, he raised his hand and tossed it up. The Hunyuan Golden Bucket flew into the air and expanded with the wind. In an instant, it turned into the size of a small mountain. With the opening facing down, the golden light shone brightly, illuminating the entire Ghost Cave.

"Primordial Golden Cauldron, collect!"

With a low shout, Ma Xianhong caused the Hunyuan Golden Cauldron to spin violently, unleashing boundless suction power from within, resembling a bottomless abyss that devoured everything!

"Crash!"

The imaginary space, like a shattered mirror, was shrouded in golden light and transformed into streams of black torrents, which were frantically swallowed up by the Hunyuan Golden Cauldron!

Hu Bayi and his two companions were dumbfounded.

Fatty Wang swallowed hard and muttered, "This...this bucket's got a mind of its own? Why does it suck everything in?"

Hu Bayi's eyes widened in shock as he whispered, "That's not a bucket, that's the legendary Hunyuan Golden Cauldron, a supreme treasure in mythology that even immortals and gods can take away. But isn't this thing in the hands of Lady Yunxiao?"

As the Primordial Golden Cauldron devoured the void, the imaginary space deep within the Ghost Cave gradually shrank, and the originally distorted darkness was peeled away inch by inch, revealing the void chaos below.

"Roar--!"

Suddenly, a mournful roar came from the depths of the imaginary space, as if some being was unwilling to be taken away and condensed into a pitch-black snake shadow at the last moment, struggling frantically!
Yuan Tiangang's eyes turned cold: "You mere remnant spirit dares to be so presumptuous?"

He pointed his fingers like a sword, and with a swift motion, a purple-gold sword light suddenly slashed out, instantly splitting the snake shadow in two!
"Destroy!"

Li Chunfeng also raised his hand and pointed, and the golden fire transformed into a fire dragon, coiling upwards and burning the snake shadow to ashes!

"Boom!"

In the end, the entire imaginary space was completely absorbed into the Hunyuan Golden Bucket, leaving only a void of darkness at the bottom of the Ghost Cave, with no further abnormalities.

Ma Xianhong smiled with satisfaction: "Mission accomplished!"

Li Chunfeng put away the array diagram, and Yuan Tiangang also withdrew his Qi. The twelve Sea-Stabilizing Pearls flew back into Ma Xianhong's sleeve.

Inside the Ghost Cave, everything returned to calm, and the original abyss had completely disappeared.

Fatty Wang plopped down on the ground, wiping away cold sweat: "Finally, it's over! I've never had such a thrill in my life!"

Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang both breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, Li Chunfeng looked at Shirley Yang and said calmly, "The curse on you has been lifted. From now on, you can soar freely like a fish in the sea and a bird in the sky. Congratulations!"

"what?!"

Shirley Yang was incredulous when she heard this. She quickly touched the red curse mark on her back and found that the area where the mark used to be was now very smooth, just like the rest of the area.

"It's gone, it's finally gone!" Shirley Yang cried with joy.

Ma Xianhong then looked at Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang and said, "The matter here is settled, and I should go back now."

Li Chunfeng smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, please take care!"

Then, Ma Xianhong disappeared from the spot, having actually returned to the Juntian Realm through the space-time portal.

------

The most troublesome snake god in the Ghost Blows Out the Light world was thus taken away by Ma Xianhong. As for the other ancient gods, they were sealed away by the four great corpse ancestors, Yuan Tiangang, and Li Chunfeng in the following days and returned to the Juntian Realm.

At this moment, in the Heavenly Dao Space.

The seven men, led by Yuan Tiangang, knelt before Meng Fan and reported, "Your Majesty, we have been ordered to capture the ancient gods and now report back!"

Meng Fan sat upright on the nine jade steps, his body shrouded in a faint aura of chaos, his eyes seemingly reflecting a galaxy. He nodded slightly, his voice like thunder yet carrying supreme majesty: "Good."

As this word was uttered, the entire Heavenly Dao Space suddenly lit up with dazzling golden light.

Black King had somehow already squatted down at Meng Fan's feet, its tail wagging gently, and golden circles turning in its dog eyes, revealing a hint of ingratiation.

Yuan Tiangang presented a purple-gold treasure box with both hands. The box was covered with inscriptions of the Heavenly Dao, and five black energies could be vaguely seen rushing left and right inside.

"Your Majesty, the remains of the Serpent God have been suppressed by the Heart-Piercing Lock and are all here," Yuan Tiangang said in a deep voice.

Meng Fan glanced over and suddenly chuckled, "This snake god is quite tenacious."

With a flick of his finger, the Purple Gold Treasure Box opened, and five streams of black energy shot into the sky, transforming into the phantom of a thousand-foot-long giant snake in mid-air.

"hiss--!"

The remnant soul of the serpent god let out a deafening roar.

Meng Fan snorted coldly, a sound like the first thunderclap at the beginning of time, causing the illusory image of the Serpent God to tremble violently.

Just then, Black Emperor suddenly stood up and pressed down with his paws in mid-air.

"Wang!"

The serpent god's phantom suddenly shrank under its claws, becoming solid, about the size of a loach. How could a mere, broken ancient god be a match for it?

Immediately, the Black Emperor picked it up with its mouth and placed it in front of Meng Fan like a treasure, its tail wagging rapidly behind it.

Seeing this, Meng Fan couldn't help but twitch his lips. This Black Emperor is getting more and more despicable. Who could tell that He was originally a dignified Heavenly Dao?

Meng Fan casually collected the serpent god's remains and put them into the Burial Heaven Coffin to suppress them. He would wait until the decomposition was complete before infusing its rules into the Origin Heaven Dao Tree for nurturing.

Then, Meng Fan looked at Yuan Tiangang and the others and said calmly, "You all did a good job this time, and you will each be rewarded."

After he finished speaking, a golden cloud of merit suddenly appeared in the void, splitting into several clouds and sprinkling them on everyone.

Everyone expressed their gratitude, saying, "We are unworthy of such an honor!"
