Chapter 313: It\'s Happening!
Only when nearing a suitable Dao Source would they stir.
And the Prison Warden had already reacted to the Demon Continent. Only after addressing the main threat of the demon race did Yun Xiao bring it forth.
Before this, Yun Xiao had already alerted the Supreme Marshal, ordering all the forces in the Divine Continent to be on high alert, sweeping away the remaining demons!
With the emergence of the Prison Warden, the land of the Demon Continent seemed to fall into an absolute silence of death.
Yun Xiao stood beside this ancient violet coffin, scenes of Heaven Burial\'s transformation flooding his mind...
"It\'s evolving automatically." The little black beast poked its head out from his embrace, its deep blue eyes fixated on the Primordial Coffin.
"Right!"
This was like what happened to the Heaven Burial Primordial Coffin in the past. The Demon Continent was similar to the Divine Pillar of the Divine Continent!
Yun Xiao gazed afar, beneath his feet in the soil layer, the violet crystalline continent seemed influenced by the Prison Warden, emitting a faint violet glow. This light even penetrated the soil and rock layers, casting a violet halo over the land.
Viewed from the angle of the Heavenly Realm, the entire Demon Continent was bathed in violet light, appearing incredibly magnificent, as if the world was evolving.
"A tiny fold world, harboring two Dao Sources?" Yun Xiao murmured.
"This must be why Creator chose to restart here! He must have mapped out a route to collect these Dao Sources," Blue Star spoke softly.
"The Kunlun Inferno, is that the final destination?" Yun Xiao asked.
"Your past self perished in the Kunlun Inferno, and will also truly be reborn there," Blue Star declared confidently.
"That seems like a long way off." Yun Xiao couldn\'t see through the mist on the road ahead, his gaze focused on the Primordial Coffin before him. "I remember our first meeting. It even tried to tackle me. What a violent fellow."
No sooner had he spoken, the Prison Warden Primordial Coffin suddenly trembled. A majestic, domineering, and soul-shaking dragon\'s roar erupted from the coffin, instantly sweeping across the entire Demon Continent.
For a moment, every remaining creature in the Demon Continent, even those hidden deep, clutched their ears in agony, instinctively crumpling to the ground, trembling violently.
"A dragon? A beast?" Yun Xiao remembered that the Heaven Burial Primordial Coffin birthed a gigantic azure lotus.
What was buried in this Prison Warden Primordial Coffin?
RUMBLE! RUMBLE! RUMBLE! The violet coffin before him continued to thunderously vibrate. The ferocious dragon\'s roar even reached the Divine Continent, startling countless citizens.
With its tremors, the very earth of the Demon Continent shook. The earth cracked, rivers reversed, and volcanoes erupted. It was as if the end of the world had come.
"It\'s clear, its wild, different in nature from Heaven Burial," Yun Xiao observed the violet coffin intensely.
Heaven Burial was cold and lethal, the kind that was ruthless with few words.
However, this Prison Warden, from inside out, was fierce and domineering, exuding a tyrannical emperor\'s aura, commanding deep reverence and soul-deep submission.
"And moreover, this is a power that directly reaches the soul!" Those few dragon roars even shook Yun Xiao, as if his soul was being oppressed by the heavens.
CRACK! At that moment, the coffin suddenly started quaking, fissures spreading across it.
"Though it\'s breaking out of a coffin, it feels like something hatching from an egg" Yun Xiao\'s heart stirred. Was it death, or life? That was the riddle. His heart raced slightly, his eyes glued to the cracks of the violet coffin, filled with tension and anticipation.
The ten Primordial Coffins were key to surpassing the past Creator Immortal!
This was also the most crucial checkpoint on Yun Xiao\'s path to ascension. Once successful, his progress would turn from one to two!
CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! At the most tense moment, the violet coffin didn\'t even bother with the process of opening; it was already covered in cracks, like a shattered egg!
Through these cracks, Yun Xiao already saw dense violet mist, and within it, it seemed like a living beast was roaring and slamming!
"It\'s coming out!" Red Moon exclaimed excitedly.
BOOM! As soon as the words left its mouth, the Heaven Burial Primordial Coffin exploded in front of Yun Xiao, turning to dust and smoke, the force blasting him away!
He steadied himself quickly, gazing into the violet mist, only to see a gigantic beast burst forth, descending before Yun Xiao!
Uh... a dragon? Yun Xiao\'s heart jolted.
As the violet mist dissipated, he was astounded to see a majestic violet dragon before him, its divine might overpowering, fierce and savage, like the ruler of the underworld!
It had nine dragon heads! These nine heads coiled around each other, forming a cluster, all gazing at Yun Xiao. In those deep violet eyes, there seemed to be distinct spirits, as if harboring nine different souls!
Demons, they too were beasts! And so was the phoenix!
However, Yun Xiao deeply understood that this nine-headed violet dragon before him was not just any ordinary beast, nor even a demon ancestor god like the Divine Desolation Demon God.
It was something from another dimension. Perhaps the dragon was merely its external form. What it truly was, like the Heaven Burial azure lotus, remained a mystery to all.
In the moment of locking gazes with its nine pairs of eyes, Yun Xiao suddenly knew its name.
The Prison Warden Dao Dragon. As soon as he spoke, the nine heads simultaneously let out a sky-reaching howl that shook both the Divine and Demon Continents, causing all beings in heaven and earth to prostrate.
The Sword Cultivators and devils remaining on the Demon Continent were equally terrified.
BOOM! After a deep look at Yun Xiao, the dragon didn\'t linger. It descended from the sky and plunged into the violet crystalline continent beneath.
This process was identical to the fusion of the Heaven Burial azure lotus with the Pillar of the Divine Continent!
The last time, Yun Xiao was completely befuddled. But this time, standing upon the Demon Continent, he could feel more acutely the sense of world-shattering devastation.
"The entire Demon Continent Half of it is composed of rocks, lands, and rivers, and the other half is composed of that violet crystal! Will it completely collapse next?"
This question was soon to be answered.
BOOM! The earth trembled mightily! Dazzling violet light illuminated heaven and earth!
"Someone has obtained the Heavenly Land!" At both entrances, the Sword Cultivators and devils were terrified, their eyes filled with shock.
They looked out to see the Demon Continent\'s earth shattering, countless mountains and stones caving in, collapsing, colliding. The sky was filled with dust, demons running amok, and with countless cries of despair.
The continent seemed as if its skeleton had been removed!
Logically, it should have broken apart and disintegrated completely, with the remaining soil scattering into the heavens and earth, becoming a part of history.
But, to Yun Xiao\'s surprise, after the disappearance of the violet crystal, countless violet rays enveloped the battered land of the Demon Continent, reassembling mountains and rivers, recongealing it into a piece of land, albeit half its original size!
As for how many demons survived this cataclysm, no one knew.
And there stood Yun Xiao, upon this smaller, reborn Demon Continent! Before him, the earth was covered in dust, with countless flows of lava. Under the envelopment of numerous violet rays, after destruction, it began anew.
"I think I understand the nature of this Prison Warden Dao Dragon," Blue Star suddenly said.
"Go on," Yun Xiao said.
"The Heaven Burial Sword Soul appears ordinary and vibrant with life, but that\'s an illusion. Its essence is death, destruction, slaughter, the ultimate power of demise," Blue Star looked towards the salvational violet light, "This Prison Warden Dao Dragon, on the other hand, is like a saint amidst filth and sin. It possesses divine, purifying power, but it manifests through ways more sinister than evil, more wicked than wickedness. Basically, it\'s the embodiment of, \'If I don\'t enter hell, who will?\' If the Heaven Burial Sword Soul is a Beautiful Death God, then this beast can be described as a Thug With a Heart of Gold."
"What the heck, I didn\'t quite catch that," Yun Xiao said.
"In a nutshell, it means... it\'s violent and scary, but kind..." Blue Star said.
"Got it, so their appearances and essences are complete opposites," Yun Xiao chuckled. He had always thought the Demon Continent would inherently be dark and brutal. Unexpectedly, its core was saintly!
After all, it was a dragon! A Dao Dragon suppressing evil and demons!
"It\'s here!" The birth of the new Demon Continent also signified the merging of the Prison Warden Primordial Coffin with the Demon Continent, creating a new treasure for Yun Xiao!
What would it be? A sword? A sigil? Or something else? Yun Xiao looked up, and from the distant land, a beam of purple light suddenly soared, piercing the void and striking right into his forehead!
BUZZ! In an instant, Yun Xiao\'s mind was dyed violet, as if a nine-headed dragon was coiling within it.
"Uh..." Yun Xiao\'s eyes flickered with violet light, his entire being as if soaring through the boundless dao realms, a sensation of ethereal ascension. Then, in the next instant, he returned to clarity, as if nothing had happened!
However, Yun Xiao knew that the essence of his cultivation had fundamentally changed. A transformation was underway within his mind!
HUM! A pattern of violet lines gradually emerged on Yun Xiao\'s forehead. The next moment, a totem of the violet nine-headed Prison Warden Dao Dragon materialized! This lifelike design added an extra touch of majesty and dominance to his already divine visage, as if he himself had become a fiercely compassionate saint!
"It\'s a Life Sigil. The Prison Warden Life Sigil." Yun Xiao took a deep breath, then couldn\'t help but laugh. He was feeling the effects of the Life Sigil! It was quite a delightful surprise!
"Quick, show it off," Blue Star and Red Moon urged from Yun Xiao\'s shoulder, as anxious as ants on a hot pan.
"Okay." Yun Xiao nodded. With a thought, the nine-headed dragon totem on his forehead suddenly shone with a violet brilliance, and a rectangular Life Sigil materialized in front of him.
BUZZ! The Prison Warden Dao Dragon on it came to life, coiling and moving within the sigil, emitting ferocious dragon roars.
"Though it lacks inscription Runes, its aura is far stronger than that of the Myriad Manifestations Sigil of Fu Longxiang," Blue Star remarked admiringly.
The Primordial Coffin, it was something they still didn\'t quite understand.
"Unlike the Sword Souls, Life Sigils have a multitude of functions and are very versatile," Yun Xiao said, his eyes burning with excitement.
"Show more!" Red Moon urged, his eyes shining with excitement.
"Alright." Yun Xiao looked at the Prison Warden Life Sigil and said profoundly, "It has four different forms!"
