Chapter 738: White Hair Billions of Feet Long

The bottom of the abyss was astonishing, revealing a gigantic silver portal, the remains of a true dragon, and corpses from the Yang Realm whose vital energy surged like volcanic eruptions.

"Roar!" Yaoyao's grandfather seemed to hesitate but ultimately roared, charging forward with resolute determination. He hefted the large cauldron in his hand and swung it at the silver gate.

Chu Feng's pupils constricted, his eyes wide with shock. He had overlooked something crucial: after the battle in the outer realm, Yaoyao's grandfather had apparently absorbed the Demon Ancestor Cauldron into his body? He hadn't returned it and could now summon and dismiss it at will!

Yaoyao's grandfather treated the large cauldron like a mere brick, smashing it directly against the thousand-zhang-tall silver portal. The resulting commotion was immense, and the sound was astounding.

"Not good!" The Saint Teacher immediately swung his Star-Driving Whip, while divine magnetic stones and other objects clattered down, forming a massive field to block and isolate them from the front. Despite this, the energy within the underground abyss boiled like a tsunami, with towering waves.

Simultaneously, various linear and spiderweb-like patterns on the abyss's stone walls intertwined and glowed brightly. This underground area itself possessed a vast and terrifying field that suppressed and protected the place from damage. Otherwise, it could not have withstood the bloody battles of the mighty experts from ancient times!

"Thump, thump, thump..." Earth-shattering sounds erupted as Yaoyao's grandfather, wielding one of the cauldron's legs like a massive hammer, smashed it more than a hundred times in one go.

Eventually, even the Demon Ancestor Cauldron couldn't tolerate it, feeling debased. It emitted a mechanical voice, saying, "Powerful spellcaster, you could be a bit more elegant. After you merge with me, I can empower your sword wheel." It offered this advice, feeling that the current method was far too crude!

However, Yaoyao's grandfather showed no reaction. His mind wasn't clear at the moment, so he continued to wield one of the cauldron's legs, smashing it another hundred-plus times!

"Clang, clang, clang..." Sparks flew everywhere, and earth-shattering sounds resonated. Dazzling symbols bloomed at the impact point; if this were in the outer realm, various celestial bodies would be shattered. These were the energy symbols of a supreme expert, empowered by the Demon Ancestor Cauldron, making the force utterly terrifying!

Fortunately, this abyss was special. It had been blessed by a mysterious field and revived; like a living entity, it frantically absorbed various energies, preserving the area from destruction.

At the same time, the silver gate deformed, caving inwards, becoming pitted and uneven. It was battered beyond recognition, practically in ruins.

Clang! Finally, the silver gate swung open with a tremendous sound. Endless chaotic energy rushed out, accompanied by a vast surge of vital energy.

"Have we truly reached the Yang Realm?!" Chu Feng's heart pounded with trepidation as he sensed an extraordinary aura.

The Saint Teacher shook his head, indicating it was too soon to tell.

With a whoosh, Yaoyao's grandfather instantly vanished, stepping into the silver gate.

Chu Feng could only lament how formidable the old man was, having actually used a "brick" to smash open the colossal gate. His ferocity was unmatched.

"Uncle Saint Teacher, let's go in quickly!" Yaoyao urged worriedly, prompting the Saint Teacher to remove the field so they could follow through the thousand-zhang-tall silver gate.

They too ventured inside. The vital energy within was indeed intensely concentrated and terrifying; ordinary evolvers would surely be unable to withstand it and would melt here.

Chu Feng was greatly shocked, for he felt that the vital energy here was even more abundant, pure, and dense than what emanated from the young girl Xi, making it truly feel like the land of the Yang Realm.

Without the Saint Teacher's protection, he would likely feel extremely uncomfortable staying here. The vital energy was overbearing, surging like a tide and scorching hot like divine flames!

"Hm?!" The Saint Teacher stopped, carefully vigilant, staring ahead.

Apart from the ground littered with skeletons, such as the broken bodies of dragons, there were also the remains of beings from the Yang Realm, whose blood energy had not dried up and continued to gush forth vital energy.

"This is not the Yang Realm!" Yaoyao stated with great certainty.

They continued forward, and soon after, they abruptly stopped, having reached their final destination.

The old man stood there, holding the large cauldron, muttering in a low roar, "Give me... immortal medicine!"

Ahead, chaotic energy was dense, and the vital energy was so concentrated it seemed about to transform into heavenly fire. It also resembled a massive volcano erupting, its brilliance astonishing the world.

"A graveyard, a burial ground!" Yaoyao spoke, her hair shimmering, her figure graceful, as she stood suspended in the air, staring ahead.

The abyss had not yet reached its end, but their path ahead was blocked.

A vermillion coffin lay horizontally, emanating an astonishing aura. Yaoyao's grandfather had arrived nearby and was staring at it.

"There's a person!" Chu Feng's pupils constricted.

Above the vermillion coffin was a figure hanging down, its feet inside the coffin and part of its body suspended in mid-air, making it bizarre and terrifying.

Chaotic energy and vital energy engulfed the area!

Golden light erupted from Chu Feng's pupils as he used his Fiery Golden Eyes, but they were surprisingly ineffective. An inexplicable aura, a power of order, was suppressing everything here.

Not until Yaoyao's grandfather glowed brightly all over his body, burning like a sun and illuminating everything, did the area gradually become clear.

At this moment, even the Saint Teacher gasped, feeling a shock to his heart.

Above the vermillion ancient coffin, a woman was suspended, bound by a white sash nailed to the stone wall above, holding her suspended and swaying.

This was somewhat startling, like a hanged ghost! But upon closer inspection, it wasn't; something bizarre was happening!

The so-called white sash was actually her own brilliant silver hair, which had nailed itself into the stone wall, suspending her. Her back was to them, and she was in the process of shedding her skin.

Indeed, her upper torso was hollow, lacking luster, and even cracked, for it was merely a human skin, bearing inexplicable patterns of order.

Below, a pair of pristine white legs were snowy white and delicate, sparkling with luster and vibrant with life. Half of them had emerged from the humanoid skin.

Furthermore, all the vital energy emanated from those snowy white long legs!

What was happening? Chu Feng was a bit bewildered. Was this so-called secret land of the Yang Realm, with its surging vital energy, caused by this woman who was half-emerged from her withered skin?

"Corpse transformation, shedding skin to ascend to immortality?" The Saint Teacher's expression was solemn, his words tinged with doubt. He was gravely vigilant, as if facing a formidable enemy!

This should be a corpse from millions of years ago, yet she had struggled out of the vermillion coffin, shedding her skin here, attempting to revive?!

This was absolutely a bizarre and terrifying event. There were similar legends in this universe, but who had ever witnessed such a thing?

Some supreme experts at the Heaven-Reflecting level would try every possible method before their demise, hoping for rebirth, but who had ever succeeded? Ultimately, all would die!

However, today there was a living example here; this mysterious woman was about to succeed.

"She is from the Yang Realm!" Yaoyao spoke.

Even after death, she was like this, with such concentrated vital energy during her skin shedding. She definitely wasn't a creature of this universe!

"Give it to me!" Yaoyao's grandfather was extremely formidable. Regardless of whether she was a corpse-disintegrating immortal or an invincible existence from millions of years ago, he simply carried the great cauldron forward, preparing to smash it down.

Chu Feng was both moved and surprised. He felt that Yaoyao's grandfather knew many things; he must have either visited here in the past or seen some ancient records or notes.

At this moment, even Yaoyao was speechless and surprised. Her grandfather was too strong and domineering, threatening this mysterious and unparalleled woman who was in the midst of transformation.

Undoubtedly, this transformation had been ongoing for tens of thousands of years! All the strangeness within the deep abyss mine might be related to her.

"This mine, of unknown age, was artificially excavated and should be a primal gold mine!" The Saint Teacher, being most sensitive to terrain and such, made this judgment.

Then, he raised his hand, holding the Star-Driving Whip and pointing it forward, ready to act at a critical moment, standing alongside Yaoyao's grandfather.

Evidently, the shedding female corpse was conscious and sentient, having long since perceived all this. She was now extremely furious, filled with suppressed indignation.

She truly wanted to erupt. Even in her current state, she still found it somewhat intolerable. What was her status, to be threatened by someone!

Yaoyao's grandfather was too formidable; he carried the "brick" and directly smacked it, not onto the female corpse, but rather slamming it onto the vermillion coffin.

The sound was immense, like immortal thunder exploding from the Thirty-Three Heavens. It made the abyss glow, and patterns intertwined; even with the field's protection, it almost caused the underground to explode.

"Gentler!" the Demon Ancestor Cauldron emitted a mechanical voice, reminding the old man.

It must be said that the vermillion coffin was very sturdy; it surprisingly did not break apart.

Chu Feng, Yaoyao, and the Saint Teacher all felt two terrifying gazes, scorching the world, seemingly capable of incinerating everything.

For a brief moment, the woman seemingly turned her head and glanced at them. However, Chu Feng couldn't see clearly because the outer skin was shriveled, and her true body was still within that old skin.

"Take it!" Ultimately, the woman restrained herself; she did not erupt and did not descend to fight desperately, because she was at a critical juncture of her transformation and it was not suitable for her to act.

She sensed that Yaoyao's grandfather was not easy to deal with, and wielding that cauldron was also very dangerous. Otherwise, she would never have allowed anyone to set foot here.

The vermillion coffin creaked, and its lid slid to one side. A piece of withered, decaying tree root flew out. It was utterly unremarkable, even looking somewhat moldy.

It simply floated up and landed in Yaoyao's grandfather's hand.

Chu Feng's eyes widened. Was this the so-called immortal medicine?

In fact, Yaoyao's grandfather's actions confirmed that it likely was, because after he took it, he turned and left immediately.

The suspended woman saw the primal gold chains on his body and again revealed piercing gazes capable of incinerating the void. "A pitiful person. So be it," she said.

She actually made such a comment, and then withdrew her gaze.

It seemed that even though she had given the great medicine, she wouldn't let the matter rest in the future. However, upon seeing that Yaoyao's grandfather had primal gold within his body, she seemed to comprehend many things and shook her head.

"Let's go!" the Saint Teacher whispered. "We cannot stay here long; it's too mysterious."

On Earth, there was actually such a primal gold mine, and this woman was hidden within it, blocking the path. The mine had not even reached its end!

They rushed out. Yaoyao's grandfather directly handed the piece of decaying root to Yaoyao, his eyes slightly gentle.

But soon, he lost some control again. As he was about to reach the surface, he couldn't help but roar towards the sky, his cries shaking the outer realm!

Outside Earth, the number of Heaven-Reflecting level experts had increased. They were closely watching the planet below.

Someone heard the roar and immediately showed a faint smile, saying, "This monster truly has a big problem with itself. What do you say, if we attack Kunlun, will it cause the Purgatory to open, thus burying the monster currently there?!"

"Don't mess around. What kind of place is Purgatory? Be careful not to invite trouble!" an old monster warned.

"Don't worry, the Heavenly God Race is anxious," someone replied. "Two giants died in today's battle, especially the Great Heavenly God, who perished. Their entire race is mourning, filled with boundless shock and fury. They've brought their sect-suppressing weapon, which might be able to withstand the Purgatory's backlash."

"Hmm, interesting," someone echoed. "Perhaps we can try to get rid of that monster. His presence in Kunlun is indeed a good opportunity!"

On Earth, at Kunlun, the Saint Teacher showed a strange expression. "Let's go underground, back to Mount Zijin," he said. "Uncle, before we leave, roar a few more times to attract attention."

He knew those people from the outer realm; none of them were good. Especially since his surveillance field deployed on the moon accurately and covertly captured their movements, he immediately understood what they were planning.

The Saint Teacher showed a profound expression, glanced at the depths of the primal gold mine, and then looked up at the sky outside the cave.

The next moment, using field techniques, vast swathes of runes enveloped them, and they vanished from the spot in an instant, returning directly to the underground of Mount Zijin.

Someone from the outer realm took action, and loud laughter ensued, "Monster, enjoy yourself!"

In that voice, the killing intent was bone-chilling!

At Kunlun, the ancient abyss shook violently. The female corpse, who had been shedding her skin and transforming for countless ages, was instantly enraged. She had been disturbed once again, interfered with by external forces.

The next moment, with a boom, her white hair, millions of zhang long, directly pierced through the stone walls and streaked across the sky. A vast, white strand of hair transformed into a bolt of energy, striking towards the outer realm!
