BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!!!
Dark mist surged, heaven and earth trembled!
The Shadow Ghost God tore through the void with its six arms, each strike carrying corrosive yin energy as it relentlessly pounded the Skeletal Giant.
"ROAR—!"
The Skeletal Giant staggered back, black ooze spraying from the gaps in its bones, only to rapidly heal.
The crimson flames in its hollow eye sockets flared violently as it suddenly opened its maw, unleashing a pitch-black beam of light!
The Shadow Ghost God spread its bone wings and vanished in an instant, reappearing above the giant’s head—six arms striking simultaneously!
BANG! BANG! BANG—!
The Skeletal Giant’s skull was smashed straight into its ribcage, yet it didn’t dodge. Instead, it seized one of the Ghost God’s arms and viciously tore—
RIIIP—!
One of the Shadow Ghost God’s arms was ripped clean off, dissipating into dark mist.
But as if impervious to pain, the remaining five arms rained down like a storm, each punch carrying a devouring force that gnawed at the Skeletal Giant’s essence!
"ROAR—!"
The Skeletal Giant let out a piercing howl as the black ooze covering its body boiled, solidifying into countless sharp bone spikes that shot toward the Shadow Ghost God!
CLANG! CLANG! CLANG—!
The spikes collided against the Ghost God’s torso, sparks flying, yet failing to pierce its obsidian bones.
The Shadow Ghost God grinned savagely, its severed arm regenerating instantly as all six hands clamped onto the Skeletal Giant’s skull—
CRACK—!
The giant’s head was twisted clean off!
"Victory?!"
The Netherfrost cultivators gasped.
But the next moment—
"Gurgle…"
From within the headless giant’s chest, a new skull began forming!
It dropped to one knee, black ooze cascading like a waterfall, forming a corrosive swamp that spread toward the Shadow Ghost God!
"Endless, aren’t you?"
Qin Luo raised an eyebrow.
Su Muwan, who had somehow gotten her hands on a bag of chips, mumbled through a mouthful, "Luo Luo, is your Ghost God even up to the task?"
"What’s the rush?"
Qin Luo chuckled. "Let it get some practice."
After its creation, the Shadow Ghost God had been stored in the Ten Thousand Demon Banner.
Naturally, it still needed time to accumulate combat experience.
On the other side of the battlefield, the Netherfrost cultivators were locked in fierce battle against a tide of abominations!
Simply put, everyone knew their role.
The boss was left to their leader.
The trash mobs were theirs to clear.
"KILL—!"
A hundred thousand cultivators roared in unison, spells lighting up the sky.
As time passed, the Shadow Ghost God finally seized its chance—THUD!!
Six arms pierced through the Skeletal Giant’s chest, pinning it to the ground!
"ROAR—!"
The giant thrashed and howled, but escape was impossible.
The Shadow Ghost God opened its maw, ready to devour it whole—
"Stop."
Qin Luo suddenly raised his hand.
The Ghost God froze mid-action, obediently retreating.
Tap. Tap. Tap.
Qin Luo strode toward the barely-breathing Skeletal Giant.
Its shattered body trembled as it weakly reached out a skeletal hand—
"My… King…"
A hoarse voice, broken as if weathered by endless time.
"At last… I see you…"
"Big Brother… is also… searching for you…"
"Every comrade… seeks you…"
Qin Luo’s pupils constricted.
This Skeletal Giant wasn’t just a mindless abomination—it was a warrior from some "tribe"? Searching for its "King"?
Wait… tribe? Warrior?
Qin Luo closed his eyes as fragmented memories surfaced.
Back when he and Su Muwan had traveled to the ancient savage era using the bronze cauldron…
Hadn’t they helped a few tribal members step onto the path of cultivation before leaving?
Could it be… them?!
Yes, who else but those ancient warriors could possess such physical resilience?
But… why?
What had happened to them?
He gazed at the Skeletal Giant and whispered, "What… befell you all?"
Hearing this, the giant mustered its last flicker of life, rasping:
"The tribe… our tribe… was attacked… by Heaven…"
"Heaven’s target… was… you…"
Then—WHOOSH!
The Skeletal Giant crumbled into dust, vanishing without a trace.
At the same time, a voice echoed through the skies:
[Congratulations to the Netherfrost Divine Realm for slaying the first abomination! Reward: 100,000 Faith Points!]
But Qin Luo stood silent, overwhelmed by the flood of revelations.
The most pressing question—
Why was it that after all his past time jumps, no one remembered him…
Yet these skeletal warriors did?
Why?
And "abominations"?
Had the Heavenly Dao altered the rules to eradicate these beings—the very ones who could communicate with him?
Su Muwan stepped forward, tugging at Qin Luo’s sleeve with concern. "Luo Luo? Are you alright?"
Qin Luo took a deep breath, fists clenched. "I’m fine."
His gaze sharpened like a blade. Though many pieces were still missing, one thing was clear—
The "Heaven" the skeleton spoke of…
Was almost certainly tied to the Heavenly Dao.
Chosen Ones, Reapers, Heavenly Avatars, Heavenly Domain, the Heavenly Dao itself…
Damn it, Heavenly Dao—what have you done? What are you scheming?
But since you’re playing this game…
Don’t blame me for turning everything upside down!
---
Time flowed onward.
The Sacred Alliance Army.
BOOM—!
The Skeletal Giant collapsed. The Radiant Empress stood atop her blood-stained golden lotus, face pale.
"Damn it all…"
She gritted her teeth.
This peak Dominator-level monstrosity had cost the alliance dearly!
Yet, they didn’t blame the abominations. Instead—
"This is all the Netherfrost Divine Realm’s fault!"
Lei Wuji bellowed. "If not for their tricks, why would the Heavenly Dao change the rules?!"
"Exactly!"
Yan Li snarled. "They must’ve cheated somehow!! That’s why the rules shifted! How despicable!"
The Radiant Empress gloomily stared at her dimmed life-bound treasure, teeth grinding. "Once I lay eyes on those insects, I’ll reduce them to ashes!"
Her golden lotus would need extensive repairs after this.
But just as she finished speaking—
A voice, cold and imperious as glacial winds, descended from the heavens:
[Oh? You think you can destroy my Netherfrost?]
ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
