Chapter 63 The Exotic King of Pu
There were no special markings on the surface of the rocks in this area, but Shi An could vaguely sense a faint spatial fluctuation.
Looking at the rocks in front of him, Shi An took a deep breath, and his eyes became much more determined. He knew very well that the Chaos Bell's reaction was not unfounded, and there must be something fishy about this.
Thinking it over, Shi An slowly extended his right hand, palm up, and gently placed it on the rock.
In an instant, a spatial force surged from his palm, flowing along the surface of the rock, as if searching for something.
As the power of space gradually permeated the rock, a faint glow began to emanate from its surface. Then, a tiny crack quietly appeared and gradually widened, eventually revealing a hidden opening.
"Just as I thought."
Upon seeing this, Shi An was overjoyed, and without any hesitation, he stepped into the passage.
The passage was dark and deep, winding and twisting, but it posed no problem for him. With his keen senses and the guidance of the Chaos Bell, Shi An ventured deeper and deeper.
Soon, the view opened up before him, revealing a huge underground cavern.
Countless crystal-clear stalactites hang high from the cave ceiling, making the entire space seem like a dream. In the center of the cave, the shadowy image of a cattail tree with only its trunk remains stands quietly.
"This is·······"
Looking at the cattail tree, Shi An's heart trembled. Although he had never seen this cattail tree in his own memory, in the long True Immortal Era of Zi Ling, he had seen a cattail demon tree fighting against the Wu Zhong Immortal King from afar.
That battle was so fierce that the heavens and earth shattered, and the stars reversed. The power of the Pumo Tree was so great that even the Wuzhong Immortal King, who was skilled in the art of time, had to be wary of it.
Although the cattail tree before him was merely a phantom, the chilling aura it exuded, combined with what he knew from the original story, gave Shi An reason to suspect that it was the lingering resentment of the demonic cattail tree.
What puzzled him was why Chaos Bell would sense this remnant soul. He hadn't reacted at all when he was face-to-face with the remnant spirit of True Immortal Ziling in the Purple Spirit Domain, until the other party tried to possess him.
But now, even though he was still quite far away from this demon tree, and they weren't even in the same space, he still experienced a strange movement.
Why?
Shi An pondered to himself, his gaze fixed on the illusory image of the cattail tree.
However, just as Shi An was about to investigate further, the phantom of the cattail tree suddenly shone brightly and transformed into a stream of light that shot towards him!
Its speed was so fast that Shi An's heart skipped a beat. He instinctively wanted to dodge, but the force seemed to lock onto his soul, making him completely unable to move. He could only watch helplessly as the stream of light got closer and closer.
"when!"
But at this critical moment, the Chaos Bell in Shi An's sea of consciousness suddenly trembled and emitted a bell-like sound. Immediately afterwards, a golden light surged out from his body, forming an invisible bell-shaped shield that blocked the stream of light.
"Sizzle~"
The streak of light struck the protective barrier of the Chaos Bell, producing a deafening sound that shook the entire cave.
When the light faded, Shi An looked closely and saw that the flowing light had transformed back into the phantom of a cattail tree, only it appeared dimmer than before, as if the attack had consumed a lot of its power.
"Is this an attempt to possess me?"
Looking at the increasingly dim Pumo Tree opposite him, Shi An was filled with doubt and surprise. What kind of constitution did he have? He had only left the village twice, yet he had encountered two people who wanted to possess him, and each time they were stronger than the last.
He was just a True Immortal before, but now he's a Celestial King?
The only difference from last time was that this time, Chaos Bell did not allow the remnant soul of the Demon King Pu to enter its body. It was as if it had some kind of independent consciousness, resolutely protecting Shi An and preventing some kind of substance from getting close.
Moreover, after repelling the remnant soul of the Demon King Pu, the Chaos Bell did not stop, but instead began to vibrate again.
"when!"
Another bell, originating from the beginning of creation, rang out. What surprised Shi An even more was that, along with the bell, the twelve grotto-heavens within his body suddenly appeared, and the twelve ancestral witch phantoms within them roared out, surrounding the Demon King Pu.
As soon as the illusory images of the Twelve Ancestral Witches appeared, the atmosphere in the entire cave suddenly became solemn and heavy.
These powerful beings, which have existed since ancient times, each exude a terrifying aura. Their eyes gleam with primal wildness and indomitable spirit, as if they want to completely obliterate the remnant soul of the Demon King before them.
Moreover, the twelve ancestral witches are interconnected and arranged in a specific formation.
Shi An could clearly feel that as the twelve ancestral witches were arranged and combined, time and space in this area seemed to, no, to freeze.
Time and space in this area are completely imprisoned, and it is separated from Baiduan Mountain.
"This is... the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation?"
Shi An was shocked. He hadn't expected that the Chaos Bell would not only protect him, but also stimulate the potential of the twelve grotto heavens within him, summoning such an ancient formation.
The Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation is a legendary formation that can summon the true form of Pangu and possesses the power to destroy the heavens and the earth. Although it is currently only composed of the phantom images of the twelve Ancestral Witches, its power is by no means ordinary.
Shi An stared intently at the changes before him, his heart filled with anticipation for the arrival of Pangu's true form.
But for some reason, as time went by, although the Twelve Ancestral Witches remained in the formation, the phantom of Pangu never appeared.
Why?
Shi An didn't understand, he really didn't understand, why Pangu's true form still hadn't descended even though the Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation was all set up.
"Is it because of their strength?"
Suddenly, Shi An thought of a possibility, and the more he thought about it, the more reasonable it seemed: the Twelve Ancestral Witches were too weak at the moment and were merely phantoms.
If they are all illusions, how could they possibly summon a Pangu true body that is stronger than their original body?
Just as Shi An realized this, the Chaos Bell within his body seemed to have realized it as well. Instead of allowing the twelve Ancestral Witches to merge, it slowly rotated the bell.
"Whoosh!"
In an instant, endless starlight poured out from the Chaos Bell, like the Milky Way hanging upside down, illuminating the entire cave.
These starlights contained ancient and mysterious power. They intertwined and entwined in the air, eventually coalescing into an ancient starry sky that enveloped the remnant soul of the Demon King Pu.
"boom!"
In the blink of an eye, just as the stars enveloped the Demon King Pu, they rained down like meteorites, crashing heavily onto the Demon King Pu's remnant soul.
