"God''s corpse!"


    What appeared before Chu Yuan was actually the corpse of a God.


    Yes, this was the body of a Celestial God.


    The coercion it emanated was much more powerful than that of the Golden Crow Celestial God, they were incomparable.


    Although the Celestial God had fallen, this body still radiated an undeniable aura of sacredness. This was the dignity of a god, not to be violated even in death.


    "This God''s corpse died in a huge battle!"


    Chu Yuan figured out that this God''s corpse must have fallen during a battle with a formidable enemy.


    "Even Celestial Gods fall, nothing is eternal."


    Chu Yuan, brimming with supreme majesty, walked towards the corpse with disregard for its power. He noticed a deep blue object next to the corpse''s right hand, it was a Deep Blue Halberd, possessing the power to disrupt space.


    "Imperial Divine Artifact!"


    Chu Yuan''s eyes narrowed sharply.


    An Imperial Divine Artifact contained the rules of Celestial Gods and held infinite power, which even a True God couldn''t forge.


    Only a formidable Celestial God could craft it using celestial power. If a True God possessed it, even opponents several realms higher would be no match.


    It was because of possessing an Imperial Divine Artifact that the Imperial Dynasty could dominate the four corners of the world.


    "Great Capturing Hand!"


    Chu Yuan reached out and grasped towards the Deep Blue Halberd.


    Boom!


    This Deep Blue Halberd, silent for many years, suddenly erupted in a furious surge and the vast aura of a celestial god turned into a terrifying and intertwined celestial rule. It actually took off, burst out with indestructible power, and slashed towards Chu Yuan.


    He could see that the power of this Deep Blue Halberd was much stronger than the Golden Crow Sword.


    "Return to my hand!"


    Although it was forged by Celestial God, it was just an artifact now. Chu Yuan also exploded with his own vigorous authority. Radiance rivaling the sun and the moon burst forth, converging on a move that was mercilessly executed.


    The world inverted, space ripped, and the world seemed to upset. The Imperial Divine Artifact contained the will of a Celestial God, naturally unwilling to be taken and resist strongly.


    "Even a divine artifact wants to oppose my might!"


    Chu Yuan commanded the clouds with a flip of his hand and caused rain with his palm.


    "Heavenly Demon''s Curse!"


    Suddenly, during the confrontation between Chu Yuan and the halberd, the surroundings went pitch black!


    A chilling, black demonic Qi spread from the God''s corpse, transforming into an eternal Demon Realm. A strong will locked onto Chu Yuan.


    Kong Midi Dao Kun let out a cry of fear and anger.


    Netherworld Soul refining!


    Netherworld Soul Binding!


    The three major killing moves of the Netherworld Soul Lamp sprung forth. Although the lamp was not very effective against physical entities, it was extremely terrifying against souls. Zhu Fengfeng''s Golden Crow Sword was no match for the soul-capturing power of the Netherworld Soul Lamp.


    The three deadly attacks hit the elder simultaneously, nearly shattering his soul.


    The elder was in agony. Knowing his attempts had failed and he was up against a formidable adversary, he attempted to disappear from Chu Yuan''s sight.


    But Chu Yuan stood firmly between heaven and earth. He appeared majestic and stately, just like a powerful Emperor. He blew lightly on the Godly Fire of the Floating Lamp. The prismatic flames spread across the space, instantly illuminating everything. The stubborn flames, akin to an eternal summer sun, locked onto the elder.


    "Primordial Divine Fire!"


    Recognising the force of the Primordial Divine Fire, the elder''s expression was beyond description. He was both furious and terrified.


    First there was the Netherworld Soul Lamp, and then the Primordial Divine Fire. Both were things that restrained him.


    The power of the supreme man erupted from Chu Yuan''s body. He took one step forward and the River of Humanities expanded like the sky. He was grand and spacious, as if the vast starry sky and the infinite universe were under his control. The elder was unable to escape from his grasp.


    The elder felt as if Chu Yuan was a supreme human Emperor.


    "Soul binding!"


    The Netherworld Soul Lamp hovered above the elder''s head, creating a domain that imprison souls.


    The elder was furious, frantically attacking the Netherworld Soul Lamp.


    However, his force was of ghostly nature, which, for the Soul Lamp, were perfect fuel. The flames on the lamp grew hotter and hotter, capable of roasting a soul alive.


    Shush!


    A giant hand emerged from the Soul Lamp and grabbed the elder''s soul.


    "Who are you!"


    The elder let out a roar of rage.


    Ah!


    Before he could finish his shout, the elder let out a shrill scream.


    This was the power of soul refining, like putting a person on a frying pan and roasting them alive. Even the tough ones can''t stand this excruciating pain.


    "What''s your name," Chu Yuan asked.


    The elder didn''t answer.


    Chu Yuan didn''t say much and directly intensified his soul-refining power, weakening the elder''s soul.


    "I''ll say it!" the elder finally couldn''t bear it, "People call me ''Elder Ning of Souls'', the ''Soul-devouring Demon God''!"


    "Your name." Chu Yuan continued refining.


    The elder was obstinate, but as the soul refining of the Netherworld Soul Lamp intensified, he could no longer bear it and had to speak again, "My name is Ning Xiuchen, but I prefer people to call me ''Elder Ning of Souls'', not ''Ning Xiuchen''. Today, I''ve mistaken my prey and fallen into your hands, kid!"
