# Chapter 3541: No Soul That the Suona Cannot Blow Away

Ziren Ghost Emperor, the Southern Ghost Emperor of Fengdu Ghost City, was one of the few top-tier overlords among the Ghost Clan.

But at this moment, he was utterly frustrated.

That junior Zhang Ruochen, taking advantage of his severe injuries, had just suppressed half of his ghostly body, and now, he had actually caught up again!

A dignified Ghost Emperor, worshipped by countless spirits, revered by all gods, yet humiliated to this point—it was truly unbearable.

"Zhang Ruochen, do you really think I, the Emperor, am afraid of you?"

Ziren Ghost Emperor raised his hand and struck out, sending a ten-thousand-zhang-long seal technique, with yin winds like blades and ghost patterns like lightning.

"Boom!"

The Bright Mirror Platform flew out, colliding with the ghostly seal technique.

Golden Buddha light illuminated the earth, the seal technique shattered, and countless ghostly energies were purified.

"This brat only broke through to the Infinite Realm a little over a thousand years ago, yet his combat power has already reached this level?"

Ziren Ghost Emperor was horrified.

This was completely different from the feeling when Zhang Ruochen had caught him off guard with the Earth Cauldron earlier. Now, without using such a great killing weapon as the Earth Cauldron, Zhang Ruochen was still able to easily break through his divine ability in a direct confrontation.

But, contrary to Ziren Ghost Emperor's expectations, Zhang Ruochen flew directly over his head, chasing after the Life and Death Double Coffin and Yuansheng.

Ziren Ghost Emperor stopped, staring in the direction he had left, and sneered, "You had a brilliant future, yet you chose to seek death. Truly pathetic."

"Pathetic is you, a dignified Ghost Emperor, reduced to such a state. Sigh!"

A purple-robed Jie Zunzhe appeared before him.

...

Still a hundred thousand li away from the Life and Death Double Coffin, Zhang Ruochen formed sword seals, controlling ten million war swords to attack in unison.

Even if it was the Yellow Spring Great Emperor, even if it was a former Primordial Ancestor, with no fear in his heart, he could draw his sword and fight.

"Bang! Bang!"

The iron chains on the coffin swung, continuously shattering the flying war swords into pieces of metal.

Yuansheng, fleeing ahead, had blood flowing uncontrollably from her chest, the Flame God Armor shattered, and even the Primordial Ancestor Divine Garment torn. She sensed Zhang Ruochen's aura and was naturally filled with countless confusion.

"You fool, why did you chase after me? Leave quickly, lure it away, and I, the Emperor, will find a way to escape on my own." Yuansheng said.

Zhang Ruochen had already sensed Jie Zunzhe's aura and was even less inclined to retreat. He transmitted his voice, "Jie Lao, do you have the confidence to fight the Yellow Spring Great Emperor?"

Hundreds of thousands of li away, Jie Zunzhe had suppressed Ziren Ghost Emperor into the Sword Pavilion and said lightly, "Are you joking? I am merely a false god, and that is a Primordial Ancestor. Have you ever seen a false god contend with a Primordial Ancestor?"

Zhang Ruochen said, "Alright, I overestimated you."

Jie Zunzhe raised an eyebrow, clearly displeased, and changed his tone, "However, I possess the Divine Source of the Immovable Bright King Great Venerable. A mere ancient reanimated corpse of a Primordial Ancestor is nothing to me."

Zhang Ruochen's face darkened, losing patience, "Are you going to act or not?"

"I can't find a reason to act." Jie Zunzhe said.

The ten million war swords Zhang Ruochen had sent out were all shattered by the Life and Death Double Coffin.

At the same time, the Life and Death Double Coffin suddenly stopped, no longer pursuing Yuansheng, and instead flew toward Zhang Ruochen.

Even from tens of thousands of li away, the Life and Death Double Coffin already cast a shadow of yin clouds over the sky, the air grew heavy, corpse qi soaked the earth, the Yellow Spring emerged from nowhere, tombs appeared in the clouds, and countless rules flowed like rivers.

"Has this angered it?"

Zhang Ruochen felt the pressure multiply and turned to flee.

But the speed unleashed by the Primordial Ancestor Boots beneath his feet was suppressed by the rules permeating heaven and earth.

"Clatter!"

The Life and Death Double Coffin drew closer and closer, several iron chains flying out first, piercing through the void and appearing directly behind Zhang Ruochen.

The iron chains were like steel dragons, ghost fire flickering, yin qi heavy.

It must be known that with Yuansheng's level of cultivation, she could only block three iron chains.

With Zhang Ruochen's current cultivation, if even one of those iron chains struck him, his divine body would surely shatter, and his divine soul would be severely injured.

Zhang Ruochen didn't count on Jie Zunzhe at all, after all, that old fellow was truly just a false god. Having only comprehended the Nineteenth Layer of Heaven after so many years, his combat power was necessarily limited. He might be able to provide some distraction on the side.

But to face an Indestructible Infinite head-on was nearly impossible.

"Whoosh!"

When the iron chains entered within a thousand zhang of Zhang Ruochen, silver light bloomed in his palm. He waved his hand and threw out the Sthavira Silver Tree.

The Ten Thousand Buddha Forest instantly manifested in the void, rows of silver trees swaying in the wind, rows of silver Buddhas with kind brows and benevolent eyes.

Buddhist chants shook heaven and earth, Buddhist texts stretched across the sky.

"Boom!"

The iron chains crashed into the Ten Thousand Buddha Forest, shattering many silver trees into silver dust, sending the Ten Thousand Buddha Forest and Zhang Ruochen within it flying over a thousand li.

But these iron chains ultimately failed to pierce through the Ten Thousand Buddha Forest.

The shattered silver trees and silver Buddhas quickly regrew.

Zhang Ruochen stood at the center of the Ten Thousand Buddha Forest, his spiritual power extending outward, connecting with every Buddha.

At the same time, divine qi surged out, drawing the Mani Pearl to fly toward the sky, controlling the Bright Mirror Platform to sink into the ground, using these two supreme Buddhist divine artifacts to enhance the power of the Sthavira Silver Tree.

Moments later, the silhouettes of Yinyue Tian and the Sixth Patriarch condensed within the Ten Thousand Buddha Forest.

Yuansheng, carrying the blood-dripping Azure Sea Mixed Yuan Spear, chased back and stood at the edge of a tens-of-zhang-wide ground fissure, looking at the Ten Thousand Buddha Forest shining with silver light. All her emotions were replaced by frustration and anger.

That guy...

That guy had far too many treasures on him!

Just as Yuansheng was thinking about how to break the deadlock, a loud suona sound came from beyond the sky.

On the horizon, nine-colored divine radiance rose, and a purple-robed old man came blowing a suona.

The suona sound contained profound divine power, blowing away the yin qi that shrouded heaven and earth, dissolving the soul-shaking Primordial Ancestor divine might.

The Life and Death Double Coffin hovered a hundred zhang above the ground, and the iron chains that had been attacking the Ten Thousand Buddha Forest retracted.

The skulls at both ends of the coffin floated forward, emitting piercing screeches that clashed with the sound waves from the suona, canceling each other out.

Before long, the purple-robed old man had arrived outside the Ten Thousand Buddha Forest. He put away the suona, directly pierced through space, and appeared above the Life and Death Double Coffin. Countless purple figures scattered and then overlapped, a fist falling heavily.

Immovable Wisdom King Fist!

The nine-colored divine radiance and the Immovable Wisdom King Fist combined, shattering the flying iron chains.

"Boom!"

The fist directly collided with the coffin lid, the shockwaves rippling like ripples, sending Yuansheng and the Ten Thousand Buddha Forest shifting backward.

The Life and Death Double Coffin fell from the sky, crashing into the ground.

The earth sank with it, and the surrounding soil quickly rose, forming a ring-shaped mountain range tens of thousands of li in diameter.

"This old fellow still dares to call himself a false god?"

Zhang Ruochen was dumbfounded, never expecting Jie Zunzhe to be so absurdly strong, punching the Life and Death Double Coffin into the ground. Especially when the Primordial Ancestor divine qi, Primordial Ancestor rules, and Immovable Wisdom King Fist combined, the power was so domineering it seemed capable of splitting heaven and earth.

"Borrowing the divine power and rules of the Immovable Bright King Great Venerable, severing the shackles left behind by the Immovable Bright King Great Venerable back then, from now on, I, the Emperor, have no more restraints."

From underground, a deep, prolonged voice sounded.

The voice spread westward, fleeing away.

Suddenly, blood-red light shot up into the sky in the western sky, a beam of light descending from the heavens.

Within the beam of light, Feng Tian's figure manifested.

The moment she landed, icy death divine power surged into the ground.

"Boom!"

A hundred-thousand-li stretch of earth plates fractured, sinking violently, forcing the Life and Death Double Coffin, which had been trying to escape from underground, to fly back out.

Behind Feng Tian, the Gate of Destiny, bright as a star, manifested.

The light released by the Gate of Destiny was like billions of ropes, entangling the soul mist of Zhouqi Ghost Emperor on the coffin, pulling it toward her position.

At the same time, several divine artifacts flew out from the space around Feng Tian, all smashing into the Life and Death Double Coffin.

A battle at the Indestructible Infinite level unfolded, the energy aftershocks overturning heaven and earth. Within hundreds of thousands of li, no cultivator could approach.

Zhang Ruochen transmitted his voice to Jie Zunzhe, "Hurry and help!"

Jie Zunzhe, in his purple robe with a feathered crown binding his hair, exuded an air of immortal elegance, "Help whom? Help the Yellow Spring Great Emperor suppress Feng Caiyi?"

Zhang Ruochen said, "The Yellow Spring Great Emperor is the greater threat. If he recovers his cultivation, who in the world can stop him?"

"He doesn't need to recover his full cultivation. If he can possess just twenty percent of his former power, he could kill any cultivator in the current universe." Jie Zunzhe said.

Zhang Ruochen said, "Then why aren't you acting?"

Jie Zunzhe laughed, "But that's impossible! For him to recover twenty percent of his former power is even more difficult than for Feng Caiyi to cultivate to Half-Ancestor. So, comparatively speaking, Feng Caiyi is the greater threat."

Zhang Ruochen said, "You'd better not underestimate the Yellow Spring Great Emperor. He also has a Primordial Ancestor Divine Source within him, and a Primordial Ancestor divine body. His remnant soul also contains the insights of a Primordial Ancestor."
