Starting with SSS-rank talent, I contracted the Forbidden Ferocity.

At the end of the forbidden zone of white bones.

A very thin black line appeared to split the sky.

Behind the black line, an eye slowly opened.

That eye had no color.

There were no pupils either.

Like an endless abyss, a crack has been cut open.

It looked at Shen Ye.

It's not about looking at his body.

Instead, we look at his blood.

The ancestral blood mark on his wrist, though clearly suppressed by the Night King's Seal, was now as quiet as a dead mark.

There was no movement.

No fever.

It did not attempt to retaliate.

But Shen Ye knew that it was being read by something.

The system is flashing a scarlet light.

[Heavenly Abyss Gaze detected.]

[The Ancestral Blood Mark has entered a silent response state.]

[Warning: The host's royal blood coordinates are being verified by high-order existence.]

[Warning: Current distance too far, verification incomplete.]

Gu Wusheng looked up at the black line.

The soul fire shook violently.

"Tianyuan..."

This was the first time he had lost his composure.

Deep within the forbidden zone of white bones, countless bone flames lie dormant.

It is not submission.

It is fear.

Shen Ye raised the Night King Seal, and the black-gold royal aura pressed down on his wrist.

The jade pattern of the King of Zhen Kingdom lit up.

The ancestral bloodline mark was finally severed.

The eye in the sky paused slightly.

Then, a voice fell.

"The Night King"

The road has been cleared.

"All three nails were broken."

"The one outside the door shall have the key."

The sound wasn't loud.

However, it directly entered Shen Ye's mental sea.

The Soul-Suppressing Wall trembled violently.

Lu Chenzhou's life tablet also lit up.

"Don't listen!"

Night Feather Black Sun Netherfire protected the sea of ​​consciousness.

The Nine-Nine Candles sealed the edge of the Soul Sea in the Netherworld.

Jie Chen weakly opened his Heavenly Tribulation Eye, and gray-white lightning shone on that Heavenly Abyss gaze.

Long Yuan stepped in front of Shen Ye, his fighting spirit surging.

Shen Ye looked up.

"Who are you?"

The eyes behind the black line did not answer.

He continued:

"Tianyuan is waiting for you."

"You have a path within you."

"You have the key with you."

"You have a door in your heart."

Shen Ye's eyes turned cold.

"Playing tricks."

He raised his hand.

The Night King's Seal slammed directly into the sky.

Black gold light soared into the sky.

Of course, it won't hit that eye.

But it can interrupt the gaze.

boom!

The black gold king's light collided with the edge of the black line.

The eye closed slowly for a moment.

Then, it looked like he was smiling.

"interesting."

"More fun than the previous generation."

Lu Chenzhou's soul light trembled violently.

Shen Ye's eyes darkened slightly.

Have you met Lu Chenzhou?

The eye did not answer.

The black line begins to close.

Before closing, the last sound fell.

"Next time."

"You're not the one coming to the door."

"It's a door that's coming to find you."

The black line disappeared.

The sky returned to gray.

The bone mist in the Bone Forbidden Zone began to flow again.

Everything was as if it had never happened.

But everyone knows that some things have changed.

Gu Wusheng remained silent for a long time before finally speaking:

"The thing behind the door has truly seen you."

Shen Ye retrieved the Night King Seal.

"It's only a matter of time."

Gu Wusheng looked at him.

"Aren't you afraid?"

Shen Ye said:

"Does fear prevent it from coming?"

The bones were devoid of life, and the soul was consumed by fire.

"Won't."

Shen Ye said:

Even if it's useless.

Gu Wusheng said in a low voice:

"Are all humans like this?"

Shen Ye thought for a moment.

Not entirely.

"But most of those who dared to go to the front lines were in the same boat."

Gu Wusheng did not speak again.

Above the Bone Forbidden Zone, the phantom image of the ancient battle monument reappeared.

The bet is complete.

[Night King Shen Ye obtained the Lotus of White Bones.]

[The entrance to the third altar is unavailable.]

[The Bone Forbidden Zone is closed.]

The gray-white bone path reappeared beneath Shen Ye's feet.

Gu Wusheng suddenly spoke:

"The Night King"

Shen Ye turned around.

Gu Wusheng said:

"The Bone Clan royal court will hold me accountable."

"And you?"

Shen Ye asked:

"You want to defect to Dongxia?"

The soul fire of the boneless being flickered.

"I don't want to for now."

Shen Ye said:

"Then carry it yourself."

Gu Wusheng: "..."

After a moment, he chuckled softly.

"it is good."

Shen Ye embarked on the Bone Path.

"Let's play again next time."

Gu Wusheng said:

"Next time, I will win."

Shen Ye did not turn around.

"Get the bones repaired first."

As Gu Wusheng watched him leave, a clear fighting spirit emerged in his soul fire for the first time.

The bone structure is closed.

Shen Ye was sent back to the capital by the ancient war monument.

Before the Hall of Conferring the Title of King.

Everyone was already waiting there.

Upon seeing Shen Ye appear, Qin Wuji was the first to rush forward.

"You're out!"

Then he saw the injuries on Shen Ye's body, and his expression changed.

"What have you done now?"

Shen Ye said:

"Killed a seventh-tier soul body."

Qin Wuji remained silent.

Li Xuance took a light breath.

Chu Jinglan's eyes flickered slightly.

Meng Qianqiu's smile froze for a moment.

Zhou Xuan rubbed his temples.

"I knew it."

Wei Cang projected a cold message:

"Didn't I tell you to try to avoid doing anything reckless?"

Shen Ye said:

"I've tried my best."

Wei Cang: "..."

Lu Qingshan stepped forward and saw the White Bone Lotus in Shen Ye's hand, a flicker of emotion finally appearing in his eyes.

"Did you get it?"

Shen Ye handed it to him.

"Got it."

Inside the black box, Lu Chenzhou's soul light flickered faintly.

Lotus Bone Growth, Soul-Suppressing King Lotus, Nine Netherworld Returning Soul Technique, Embryo of the Soul-Bearing King.

Everything is finally complete.

A system notification appears.

[The conditions for Lu Chenzhou's return to his soul have been met.]

[Should we initiate the Soul Rebirth and Reshaping?]

Shen Ye did not order immediately.

He looked at Lu Qingshan.

"Now?"

Lu Qingshan remained silent for a moment.

"Not in the Hall of Royal Conferment."

Everyone looked at him.

Lu Qingshan said:

"Go to Zhenmo Pass."

"He set out from there."

"It's time to come back from there."

Wei Cang nodded.

"I'll arrange it."

Xue Li stood to the side, but her expression was not good.

She looked at Shen Ye's wrist.

"Ancestral Blood Mark..."

Shen Ye raised his hand.

The mark remains.

But it was quieter than before.

The silence was unsettling.

Xue Li whispered:

"This is not a good thing."

"After Tianyuan saw you, it no longer needed to move around."

"It is waiting."

Zhou Xuan asked in a deep voice:

"What are you waiting for?"

Xue Li looked up at the sky.

"Wait for the doorman to come find him."

The area in front of the hall fell silent.

The joy of seeing all three altars destroyed was overshadowed by these words.

Shen Ye simply put away the Night King Seal.

"Then let's wait for it to come."

"Save lives first."

Three days later.

Demon-Suppressing Pass.

The Hall of Heroes is wide open.

The Demon-Suppressing Army formed ranks.

Lu Qingshan stood in front of the hall, holding Lu Chenzhou's life tablet in his hands.

Shen Ye stood at the center of the formation.

The four beasts, Ye Yu, Zhu Jiu, Long Yuan, and Jie Chen, guard the four directions.

A lotus flower blooming from white bones hangs above the life tablet.

The remaining petals and roots of the Soul-Suppressing Lotus transformed into a clear light.

The embryonic form of the Soul-Bearing King slowly solidified into a human shape in mid-air.

Lu Chenzhou's remnant soul emerged from the life tablet.

He looked at the city wall of Zhenmo Pass.

I looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar battle flag.

Finally, he looked at Lu Qingshan.

"father."

Lu Qingshan's voice was hoarse.

"go home."

Shen Ye raised his hand.

"start."

The Nine Netherworld Soul Return Technique activated.

Lotus blossoms grow from white bones, penetrating the very marrow.

The Soul-Suppressing King Lotus enters the soul.

The embryonic soul of the King was formed.

Lu Chenzhou's remnant soul stepped into it.

boom!

Above the Demon-Suppressing Pass, a blue light shot into the sky.

Inside the Hall of Heroes, sixty-three names lit up simultaneously.

It's like welcoming someone who's late.

But just as the return of the soul was about to be completed...

Outside the Demon-Suppressing Pass, at the end of the battlefield of myriad races.

The black line that had closed suddenly reappeared.

It's not in the sky.

Instead, it was at Shen Ye's feet.

A small, dark door, close to his shadow, opened silently.
