Chapter 5107 The Patrol of the Underworld Soldiers
The next moment, a magical scene happened.
The turbulent spacetime currents, which had been incredibly violent and attempting to devour the divine ship, became docile upon contact with this layer of silver light, automatically parting to create a smooth passage. The divine ship navigated through it with the same smoothness as a boat gliding on a still lake, without even the slightest turbulence.
"My goodness... a spatial artifact! And a complete one at that!" Qian Duoduo's eyes widened, almost drooling. His greedy expression was like a hungry wolf eyeing fresh meat. "My benefactor, this treasure of yours... it's simply a divine object! Even in Blackhorn City, no, it should be an absolute treasure in the Chaotic Starfield! If this were sold, it would be worth a huge amount of Chaos God Crystals! Hehe---such a treasure is enough to make anyone envious!"
"Just say you want to die. Or should I throw you out now and let you have a close encounter with these laws?" Before Su Bai could speak, Luo Yunsheng gave him a cold glance, slightly raising the silver spear in her hand, its tip gleaming with a cold light.
Qian Duoduo shrank back and chuckled awkwardly, "Just kidding, just kidding! I, Fatty, have the highest professional ethics! This kind of treasure is my benefactor's lifeblood, how could I dare to have any ulterior motives? I just... just purely admire it, yes, admire it!"
Luo Yunsheng sneered and ignored the other party.
Next, under the protection of the Void Cauldron, the divine ship finally made it through the first wave of spacetime turbulence without any major incidents and entered the shallow area of the Boundary Sea.
The scene here is even more eerie and oppressive.
The seawater was no longer a transparent, flowing stream of light, but instead took on a dark red hue, as if stained with endless blood, exuding a strong stench of blood and decay. Countless tattered weapons and armor floated on the surface, along with... a dense mass of corpses.
These corpses, soaked in the power of the laws, have remained uncorrupted for billions of years, retaining their original appearance, only devoid of life.
"Woo!"
Just then, a mournful and desolate horn sound suddenly came from the depths of the Boundary Sea, piercing through the barriers of time and space, stabbing directly into everyone's eardrums, and making their souls tremble.
Immediately afterwards, the once calm sea surface suddenly began to boil, as if something was about to burst out from the seabed.
Countless ancient corpses floating nearby seemed to have been summoned from the distant past, and slowly opened their eyes!
Those once empty eye sockets now burned with eerie green flames—a testament to their unwavering will to protect this land even in death.
They wore tattered ancient celestial armor, some missing arms and legs, and some even only half a body, revealing bare white bones.
Although his physical body had long since withered, his undying fighting spirit and resentment still soared into the sky, converging into a black storm.
"Oh no! It's the 'Patrolling Ghost Soldiers'!"
Qian Duoduo's face turned deathly pale instantly, and he cried out in terror, "How could our luck be so bad? We just arrived and we've already run into these living ancestors who have risen from the dead?! These are all heavenly soldiers and generals who died in the ancient Heavenly Court. Their lingering resentment after death has turned them into guardians of this Boundary Sea, and they will attack any intruder indiscriminately! Moreover, they are immortal and indestructible, and very troublesome! In the past, some powerful beings tried to force their way in, but they were dragged into the sea and not even a trace of their bones remained!"
As they were talking, the group of ancient corpses had already discovered Su Bai and the others' divine ship.
"kill!!"
With a hoarse roar, hundreds of ancient corpses, wielding rusty halberds and broken swords, charged toward the divine ship like a tidal wave.
The combined malevolent energy actually froze the void!
"coming!"
A cold glint flashed in Su Bai's eyes, and the Zhuxian Sword in his hand was instantly drawn, its blade radiating a chilling killing intent.
Luo Yunsheng also had a solemn expression. He flicked his silver spear, which emitted a sharp light, and prepared to charge.
Even Qian Duoduo, who kept insisting that he couldn't fight, gritted his teeth and pulled out a handful of golden talismans from his pocket, ready to throw them out to save his life at any moment.
“Junior brother, there are too many of these Yin soldiers, and they were quite powerful in life. They are also empowered by the laws after death. Fighting them head-on will probably consume too much energy.” Luo Yunsheng said in a deep voice. He had already knocked away two Yin soldiers who rushed up with his spear, but more Yin soldiers surged in like a tide.
Su Bai nodded, but his gaze did not linger on these ordinary Yin soldiers; instead, he looked further into the distance.
There, a colossal Yin soldier, hundreds of feet tall, was riding the waves. He was clad in heavy armor and wielded a massive mountain-splitting axe. Although he had no head, the aura emanating from him had reached the level of a deity!
"That was a divine general from back then... Even after dying for billions of years, even after losing his head, does he still have the obsession to protect the Heavenly Court?"
Su Bai sighed softly, a hint of respect flashing in his eyes.
He refused to desecrate the remains of these martyrs. They were heroes who died fighting to protect this land and should not have ended up like this, becoming monsters who only knew how to kill.
"In that case, let us send you on your way. May your spirits rest in peace."
Su Bai sheathed the Zhuxian Sword, choosing not to respond with slaughter.
In the next instant, Su Bai's divine power surged, his expression solemn, his hands formed a hand seal, and he softly chanted: "From the limitless comes the Taiji, from the Taiji comes the Yin and Yang, all laws return to one, salvation!"
As his voice faded, a vast yet gentle stream of black and white energy surged from his body.
That wasn't a murderous aura, but rather Su Bai's understanding of the "Wuji Dao," his comprehension of life and death, and his embrace of all things.
The black and white energies intertwined in the air, transforming into countless pure white lotus flowers that floated towards the charging Yin soldiers.
These lotus flowers are not physical objects, but are formed from pure, boundless energy, containing the supreme power to redeem resentment and purify the soul.
Any Yin soldiers touched by the lotus flower instantly froze in their movements.
The eerie green flames in their eyes gradually died down, replaced by a sense of clarity and liberation.
The ferocious face softened, and the hand that had been gripping the weapon slowly loosened.
"Heaven... Court..."
The colossal deity uttered a deep murmur, a call from the depths of its soul. Then, it slowly lowered its giant axe, its massive body crashing to its knees on the sea, facing the direction of Su Bai—or rather, facing the ethereal ruins of the Heavenly Court behind Su Bai—and slowly knelt on one knee.
As he knelt down, hundreds and thousands of ghostly soldiers knelt down on the sea in unison.
The resentment on their bodies dissipated, transforming into specks of pure spiritual light that rose up and eventually vanished into the world.
Such a scene is indescribable; it is both magnificent and tragic.
Just then, in Su Bai's divine world, Amo, who had been sleeping, suddenly stirred.
She transformed into a streak of light and rushed out of the divine realm, hovering in mid-air. Watching the dissipating spiritual light, her small face was already covered in tears.
"It's the Giant Spirit Army...those are Uncle Giant Spirit's men..."
