I tricked you into thinking you had the makings of an emperor, but you actually did it?

A chill ran through Gu Tongjin's heart, and a primal unease gave rise to a sense of unease.

Is Shen Ming really that hard to kill?!

The next moment, Gu Tongjin didn't even turn his head and unleashed the Divine Light of the Other Shore without regard for the cost.

Even someone as powerful as the Great Luo Dao Master was less than a thousand meters away from Shen Ming; this was within the killing range.

No matter what's behind us, we'll kill Shen Ming first.

The Daoist masters present scattered in panic, fearing they would incur the wrath of the Heavenly Court.

However, Shen Ming himself had no idea whether there would be a light of punishment.

There is no answer yet, because Bone Lord appeared in a flash and took the hit of the Divine Light of the Other Shore head-on.

"Would he rather die? This guy!"

Gu Tongjin could hardly believe it; no one in the realm of immortality could withstand such an attack.

Just as he expected, with a snap, Bone Master shattered into pieces, and pieces of bone fell like raindrops.

"baffling."

Even those who have seen through the ages couldn't see the true face of the Bone Lord; they only found it absurd.

His divine light from beyond the shore is not just one beam.

"Who else is willing to die in his place?!" Gu Tongjin glared fiercely at the other Dao Lords present.

The Dao Lords were filled with terror, but it wasn't because of him.

Before the falling bones even touched the ground, they were lifted back into the air by an invisible force.

At the same time, the coffin of the Burial God Temple rose into the air above the mountain peak and hung high in the sky.

Gu Tongjin noticed that the coffin of the burial god was open, and an irresistible force locked onto him.

"not good!"

Gu Tongjin felt a chill sweep over his entire body, and he couldn't even care less about Shen Ming anymore, wanting to escape.

As a result, pieces of white bone adhered to his body, resembling a set of bone armor.

The skull is located on its shoulder, with its mouth open, emitting a unique, loud, cacophony laugh.

Gu Tongjin discovered that he could not use his power of the Great Dao at all.

In his terror, the skeleton carried him into the coffin of the burial god.

"Let me out!"

Gu Tongjin knew this was a murder weapon, and coupled with the presence of a forbidden creature made of white bones, he was so frightened that he didn't seem like a Great Luo Dao Master.

He exerted all his strength and finally got rid of the white bones on his body.

However, the skeleton, possessing the quality of immortality, reformed itself in front of him.

The coffin was airtight and pitch black inside, with the only source of light being the eerie flames on the skeleton's body.

"Once you're in, don't even think about getting out!" Bone sneered.

"You're the skeleton on the moon, the one who followed Shen Ming?! You're the ancestor of humanity?"

Gu Tongjin suddenly remembered this intelligence information and said, "This is impossible! How could the World Tree allow you to enter! This is absolutely impossible!"

"The Lord of Heaven, nothing is impossible," Bone Lord said smugly.

The moment Shen Ming entered the city, Bone Master sensed his presence and was waiting for the crucial moment to appear.

"How could a forbidden creature from the moon possibly enter the Nine Realms, let alone the Upper Realm?"

However, this phrase is repeated throughout history.

When Bone realized that he was almost going crazy, he couldn't help but wonder what was impossible about him going home.

"If you can come in, the Lord of the Abyss can come in, and the forbidden beings on the moon can come in," Emperor Tuomogu speculated.

"There are forbidden zones for life in the Nine Realms, what's so strange about that?" Bone Lord still found it strange.

Gu Tongjin was so frightened that he had no intention of resisting and let him do as he pleased.

Originally, it would have been very difficult for Bone Lord to deal with enemies at the level of a Great Luo Dao Lord.

He had already planned to slowly wear down his opponent in the coffin of the god of burial.

As a result, Gu Tongjin was quite frightened when he overheard the conversation between Gu Ye and Tuo Mo Gu Di.

Bone Lord didn't intend to delve into the matter; he simply grabbed his bone sword and began hacking away.

For a time, the inside of the coffin of the burial god resembled a slaughterhouse.

To be honest, if those people outside were to see this, even the Dao Lord would be terrified.

Meanwhile, on Shen Ming's side...

Everything happened too fast and too suddenly; none of the Dao Lords could react in time.

"Senior Brother Linghu, why don't you, the Sword Sect, take on the role of the next sect leader?" said Sect Leader Taihao.

"I don't care!" Linghu Tian said irritably. "You're just jumping around like this."

The attitude of the Taihao Sect Leader is also a barometer.

"That was our ancestor's intervention?!"

At the mountaintop, Tianyi's heart was filled with turbulent waves.

He had considered that Shen Ming might have a way to retaliate, after all, he was the ruler of the Heavenly Court.

For example, the Light of Punishment, or the protector of a true immortal.

I never imagined it would be Bai Yujing's ancestor!

He was absolutely wrong!

"Lord of Heaven, this was my own will, but I was forced by the Other Shore Divine Cult and the Divine Court. I, Tianyi, will atone with my death!"

As planned, Tianyi was about to quell Shen Ming's anger by unleashing his Great Dao Weapon and undergoing a physical transformation.

Just as he began, a voice from the Coffin of the God of Burial interrupted him.

"It's not just talk. Alright, explain the whole story to the master properly, and he will spare your life."

The voice of his ancestors echoed in his ears.

Our ancestors addressed him as "Sir"?!

Yes, that is the Lord of Heaven!

So, from the very beginning, our ancestors were waiting here for Shen Ming to arrive.

"If we had acted in the Tianqi Mountains and rescued them from the Demon Court, everything would have been perfect!"

Tianyi couldn't help but think of this. Shen Ming was not yet the ruler of the Heavenly Court; he was already a disciple of the Taihao Sect.

If everything goes smoothly, we will arrive at the coffin of the burial god, without so many twists and turns.

"Ancestor, why didn't you tell us all this sooner?" Tianyi couldn't help but ask.

How could I know!

Bone Master was annoyed to think that before Shen Ming arrived today, he didn't even know if his plan would work.

"Everything is predetermined, everything has its cause and effect. This is a calamity, and it is also a destiny. It all depends on a single thought."

Of course, on the surface, Ainz Ooal Gown still had to pretend to be unfathomable.

Tianyi gasped, then asked, "Ancestor, what was the origin of that skeleton? Why was it so terrifying?"

You're the scary one! Even among skeletons, I'm considered handsome!

All along, Ainz Ooal Gown has stayed in the Coffin of the Gods, communicating with the outside world through the wall.

After all, he has a bad image.

"This is the White Bone Emperor I subdued, a malevolent spirit that wreaked havoc for an entire era, and is now one of my subordinates," Bone Lord continued.

Tianyi gasped, realizing that such ferocious creatures were all following their ancestor.

Our ancestors addressed Shen Ming as "Sir"!

"The Heavenly Emperor was born not long ago. Before that, Shen Ming was still in the Void God Realm, and his ancestor was by his side, which means that this person is definitely the reincarnation of the Immortal Emperor."

As expected of our ancestors, they had keen insight, unlike me who was caught in a dilemma and made this choice.

Tianyi was awestruck, feeling as if he were in a grand scheme spanning several eras, ignorant like a child.

At this moment, Shen Ming arrived at the top of the mountain.

Remembering his ancestor's words, Tianyi stepped forward sincerely, leaving Shen Ming to deal with him.

Shen Ming remained expressionless, his eyes indifferent.

The more this happened, the more pressure Tianyi felt, and he didn't know what to do.

What he didn't know was that Shen Ming also didn't know what to do.

Even if a Grand Luo Dao Master stood there and let him kill him without resisting, he still couldn't kill him.

Fortunately, he immediately heard Bone Lord's voice inviting him into the Temple of the Burial God.
