"combine!"

Nie Chang'an shouted at the blood coffin.

The blood coffin trembled as it slowly floated over.

Then, the blood coffin swallowed Nie Chang'an, and the coffin lid closed smoothly.

Sizzle! Bang!

The hundreds of immortal runes that were tightly intertwined with Nie Chang'an's body all broke as the blood coffin closed.

The origin of this blood coffin is unknown, yet it manages to conceal the rules of immortal runes. Such power is beyond the capabilities of even imperial weapons.

Nie Chang'an didn't actually know the exact origin of the blood coffin. He obtained it from some ancient secret realm, nearly losing his life in the process—a truly harrowing experience.

Nie Chang'an got a brief respite, and the pain suddenly subsided.

Before he could even rejoice, he immediately steered the blood coffin toward the entrance to the Path to Immortality.

As long as you leave the path to immortality, you can survive.

Only by living can one touch the path to immortality.

"go!"

To ensure his escape, Nie Chang'an dared not waste a single moment. He took out all the resources he was carrying and fed them to the Blood Coffin, hoping it could carry him away from this dangerous place.

The blood coffin, having received Nie Chang'an's blood and flesh sacrifice along with numerous resources, did indeed come into play.

Chi Chi Chi!

The coffin was bright red all over, and it was engraved with many strange and fierce patterns, as if it were a demon sealed in the eighteen levels of hell, baring its fangs and claws, ferocious and vicious.

Obeying Nie Chang'an's orders, the blood coffin headed towards the entrance of the Ascension Path.

Although the movement was slow, at least it didn't stop in one place.

After about fifteen minutes, the vibrations of the blood coffin intensified significantly.

Hidden inside the coffin, Nie Chang'an naturally noticed the abnormality of the blood coffin. He was extremely anxious, yet there was nothing he could do. Nie Chang'an had exhausted all his resources; whether he could leave the Path to Immortality alive depended entirely on fate.

"You must hold on!"

Nie Chang'an was like a dried-up corpse. Let alone using any more methods, even moving a finger was difficult for him. He could only pin his hopes on the blood coffin.

"If you survive this ordeal, I will offer you countless blood offerings so you can eat your fill!"

Nie Chang'an's face was contorted with rage as he spoke weakly.

Perhaps upon hearing these words, the blood coffin trembled slightly, eagerly craving new blood.

Trusting in Nie Chang'an's promise, it defied the supreme rules of the Ascension Path and slowly approached the entrance.

"What is that?"

The emperors below, unaware of what trouble Nie Chang'an had encountered, suddenly saw a blood-red coffin appear, placed Nie Chang'an inside, and then begin to retreat.

"This item is ominous."

Some people observed the demonic patterns on the blood coffin and made calculations with their fingers. Upon doing so, their souls felt as if they had been invaded by some unknown rule, experiencing stinging pain, discomfort, and palpitations.

"My lord, what is this?"

In a void somewhere in the Eternal Night Ruins, Xiao Jing, dressed in a simple long dress, observed for a long time without success, and once again sought help from her lord.

"I don't know."

Emperor Taiwei could not give a definite answer.

Although he possessed extraordinary abilities, he ultimately failed to attain the realm of immortality. The world is filled with countless forbidden things; how could he possibly know the whole story?

However, after examining it for a few moments, Emperor Taiwei could discern something unusual and thought to himself, "A flawed immortal artifact."

Immortal weapon!

The supreme treasure above even imperial weapons!

Only when a mundane artifact is imbued with the life essence of the Immortal Lord of Longevity can it transform into a celestial artifact.

Those who can reach the limit of the Emperor's Path and even break free from their shackles are all people of great fortune, so how could they not have hidden treasures?

Without a trump card, how could Nie Chang'an dare to embark on the path to immortality?

What he never expected was that the path to immortality was so terrifying.

Clang! Thump!

On the path to immortality, a blood-red coffin wobbled towards the entrance, its movement slowing down more and more, looking as if it might fall apart at any moment.

The blood coffin was only a hundred feet from the entrance. Nie Chang'an could see the situation outside and a hint of joy appeared on his face. He prepared to find a place to seclude himself to heal his injuries and make a comeback.

boom!

Suddenly, a dull thud came from the blood coffin.

A three-inch-long crack appeared somewhere on the blood coffin!

Starting from this crack, it quickly spread to other places.

"Hold on!"

Nie Chang'an could barely move his body. He shouted in fear, his voice low and hoarse, as if a fishbone was stuck in his throat.

Squeak! Crunch! Sizzle!

From this crack onward, the blood coffin reached its limit and could no longer withstand the pressure. It froze in place, trembling violently, its surface flashing with many strange streaks of lightning, accompanied by a series of chaotic, faint wails.

boom! boom!

In just over ten breaths, the blood coffin exploded.

The coffin was shattered into pieces, and its power vanished.

Without the protection of the blood coffin, Nie Chang'an was exposed to the laws of immortality and was immediately locked down. Countless invisible killing immortal runes gathered from all directions and bound him instantly.

"No! No!"

Nie Chang'an wanted to resist, but he didn't have the ability.

As death drew near, he lost all his former high spirits and confidence; his face was filled with fear, unwilling to accept such an end.

tear-

The next moment, the immortal runes exerted a little force, shattering Nie Chang'an into pieces.

His soul, of course, could not escape and perished along with his body, leaving no possibility of reincarnation.

wow-

A few breaths later, the path to immortality returned to its original state, a picturesque scene filled with ethereal beauty.

The bloody scene just now seemed as if it had never happened.

As for the shattered blood coffin, it was shrouded in celestial mist, and its whereabouts are unknown.

Witnessing the fall of a terrifying being, the emperors' expressions froze instantly, their thoughts stopped, and fine blood vessels appeared in their eyes, filled with terror and stunned silence.

"He...is dead."

Li Qiong's lips trembled slightly, and the image of Nie Chang'an's death kept flashing before her eyes. Her emotions were extremely complicated, and she spoke in a hoarse voice.

How did Nie Chang'an die?

The most terrifying dangers are the unknown ones.

"What kind of troubles lie on the path to immortality?"

The priestess and the others had originally planned to take advantage of the great opportunity presented by the Supreme Feast to take another small step forward, thus embarking on the path to immortality and boldly forging a future.

Now it seems that this path is not so easy to take.

Nie Chang'an, who had broken free of his shackles for many years, possessed great abilities and extraordinary methods, yet he still could not escape the judgment of the rules of the path to immortality.

Even if the priestess and others were lucky enough to rise to a higher level, their fate would still be certain death.

"We... probably won't have that chance."

The Faceless Man originally believed that he had reached the pinnacle of the Emperor's Path and was qualified to touch the realm of Immortal Longevity. However, the reality was not so.

He hasn't even broken free from the shackles of the imperial path, let alone the path to immortality.

"The opportunity is right in front of us, but alas, our talents are limited!"

Qinglin Saint Lord did not blame himself for being born in the wrong era, but only for his own lack of ability.

Having witnessed Nie Chang'an's demise, the emperors gained a direct understanding of the terror of the path to immortality, and were filled with dread and many reflections.

"What's the current situation with Mu Cangyan? Why haven't we seen him for so long?"

After a long while, the faceless man glanced at the path to immortality. Apart from the strange scenery, there were no other changes. He was puzzled and muttered to himself.
