The flames in the soul furnace gradually vanished. Su Chen stepped out of the clouds like a god, his body shrouded in the radiance of divinity.
In this refinement, Su Chen had not only absorbed the remnant souls of these Death Gods, but also refined a portion of their old Godhood for urgent use. This divinity did not belong to the inheritance of the Primal Chaos Will, but was a pure and unsullied land worthy of Su Chen's efforts.
In fact, the so-called power of divinity, to put it bluntly, was a higher-dimensional power of law. It originated from the Chaos Era, but at a more fundamental level, it was a natural power that did not belong to anyone. It was only when one had enough power that one could extract it from the depths of space and attach one's own color to it.
After refining this divinity energy, Su Chen's understanding of laws, nature, and all things in the world deepened. He felt like he had touched upon the origin of this world, but he was still stuck in the realm of seeing flowers in the fog. He could not clearly see the true existences in the depths of the origin.
Perhaps when Su Chen could clearly see the origin of the world, he would be truly invincible.
In an instant, Su Chen's aura suddenly retracted.
His gaze pierced through the earth, sensing a strange ripple in the core of the Emperor Deathly Tomb.
This was a strange phenomenon shrouded in a pale-white aura. As if it had just been awakened, its aura was constantly rising, reaching an astonishing level in the blink of an eye.
Su Chen was sure that this was the Pale Breath that Li Xuanye was searching for.
This sigh possessed the power to shake the Primal Chaos Will!
Although he had discovered his target, Su Chen did not dare to recklessly approach.
The God that had fallen here in the past was a bloody example of just how terrifying this Pale Breath was. Although the enemy of an enemy was an ally, Su Chen did not dare to be sure that this Pale Breath had its own consciousness. If it didn't like anyone, then his rash approach would undoubtedly be viewed as a provocation.
It was best to maintain a safe distance and send a few friendly signals to see if he could get a response.
Su Chen immediately sat down with his legs crossed. He controlled the force field around him and turned it into a gentle and warm wind, blowing towards the core of the Tomb of the Emperor. He also sent his kind greetings there.
After waiting for a long time, there was no response. The Pale Breath seemed to have not sensed Su Chen's greeting at all. His aura was still expanding, and the dangerous aura was about to descend upon Su Chen's head.
Seeing that the situation was bad, Su Chen was about to leave the tomb when Dian Dian appeared and said, "Master, the Pale Breath seems to be mutating!"
"Is this good news or bad news?"
"Bad news. The situation is very bad. Pale Breath slaughtered many gods in the past, and because of this, it suffered the resentment and curses of these gods. All these years, Pale Breath has never left. It should be trapped by the resentment. Now that you have just surpassed these gods of death, the resentment of the past suddenly dissipated, and Pale Breath's mutation began to rapidly intensify."
"Shouldn't I have helped Pale Breath by dispelling the resentment of these gods of death?"
"The long-lasting balance has been broken. No one can predict where the accumulated resentment of the past will spread."
Su Chen slightly frowned.
"Then what should I do now?
Run? "
"I'm afraid it's too late. The spatial origin of the Emperor's Tomb has already changed. Right now, there is no matter or energy that can break free from the spatial restraints here. The only advice Dian Dian can give right now is to not act rashly. Wait and see to what extent Pale Breath will mutate."
Su Chen was silent. He did not expect such an accident to occur. If he had known earlier, he would not have devoured these gods of death.
Forget it, if you want benefits, you have to take risks. This is unavoidable.
Then let me see just what this Pale Breath's true colors are.
Holding his breath, Su Chen created a pavilion and sat down with Dian Dian. In front of him was a barrier made of soul force.
If it were not for this barrier, the Pale Breath's ever-increasing aura would have been enough to scatter Su Chen's spiritual body.
At this moment, the Emperor's Tomb had been completely submerged in a layer of pale light. All matter had changed from their original state, vying with each other to release energy. Those originally inanimate objects actually showed signs of life. It was as if the entire Emperor's Tomb had come to life under the Pale Breath's influence.
Su Chen stared at everything in front of him without blinking. However, he still did not understand just how this Pale Breath was mutating. He did not even know what form this Pale Breath belonged to.
Its existence had already surpassed the knowledge of this world. It was an unknown existence.
Time ticked by.
Around seven minutes later, the Pale Breath's aura reached its peak. It no longer continued to expand and instead began to contract.
All matter in the Emperor's Tomb began to collapse toward the Pale Breath.
Even Su Chen felt a fierce suction force. The Pale Breath seemed to want to devour him.
However, how could Su Chen be willing to be devoured? He used his boundless soul force to resist and barely stabilize himself.
Another ten-odd minutes passed.
The Emperor's Tomb had already disappeared. The surroundings had turned into an empty vacuum. Even space itself had been devoured by the Pale Breath.
Su Chen was almost unable to hold on. Fortunately, it was finally over.
The starry sky's radiance shone down once more. The world returned to its original tranquility.
Su Chen looked over and saw a wisp of light standing in the void.
Su Chen felt a bit more at ease.
At the very least, the Pale Breath did not seem to be mutating in a bad direction.
However, he could not let his guard down.
After thinking for a bit, Su Chen immediately used a soul force barrier to isolate the surrounding space to prevent the Pale Breath from escaping.
This was a great weapon against the will of Primal Chaos. No matter what, he had to have it in his hands.
"I've been here before. I'll bear witness."
A young but dignified voice came from the Pale Breath.
Su Chen's mind moved as he asked, "What do you want to do?"
"I … I'm just a homeless person. Unlike you, I have a chance to rebuild my home. Even if I'm invincible, I will never be able to return to the past."
This is …
Su Chen could now determine that this Pale Breath was an existence from the previous epoch. Moreover, it was an even more ancient epoch than the previous one.
This world had reincarnated more than once.
After seriously thinking for a bit, Su Chen said, "I cannot promise to let you return to your home, but if you help me, I can create a pure land for you so that you can live on in peace."
"Live on?"
The Pale Breath's voice suddenly became self-deprecating, "To me, 'live on' is the cruelest torture!"
