Chapter 663: Not Dead Yet?

The young man was named Wang Dapeng.

He was a rogue cultivator at the Nascent Soul Early Stage.

Although his strength was not considered strong, he had experienced much and possessed extraordinary insight.

At a single glance, he could tell this ring was not simple.

He hurriedly descended to the spot with the bloodstains, opened his palm, and snatched the White Jade Ring into his hand.

Immediately after, he looked at the bloodstains on the ground.

A look of confusion appeared on his face.

It seemed as if a native cultivator of the Immortal Abandoned Land had died here.

But...

Where was the corpse?

Even if they had been smashed to pieces, surely they wouldn't have failed to leave behind even a trace of flesh and blood?

He shook his head, not thinking too much about it.

He turned his head and rushed into the Abyss.

He was all alone, with no faction behind him.

Unlike other cultivators, he was not so desperate for residency in this Immortal Abandoned Land due to backing factions or his own lifespan nearing its end.

His purpose for entering here was very simple.

That was to scrounge up some benefits and then immediately slip away.

Although the cultivation environment of the Immortal Abandoned Land was poor, it did not mean there were no experts here.

Otherwise.

So many powerful factions would not have been coveting this place and still failed to completely break through it by now.

For example...

That senior from the Xuanming Dao Sect who was currently in a great battle.

Their strength was top-tier even when looking at the entire You Continent.

But now, having just entered the Immortal Abandoned Land, they were blocked by a native expert.

They had been unable to take down the opponent for a long time.

Who would dare to say that native expert was weak?

With his cultivation level, carrying out this land-clearing mission was still quite dangerous.

Now.

His luck was not bad.

He had obtained an incredible treasure just after entering the Immortal Abandoned Land.

To hell with clearing the land.

One must know how to be content.

As a rogue cultivator, he had a great deal of self-awareness.

Otherwise, he would not have lived until today.

A moment later.

He arrived before the spatial rift.

At the spatial rift, dozens of figures were circling, continuously injecting Spiritual Power into the rift.

As their Spiritual Power surged in, the spatial rift was expanding at a slow speed barely discernible to the naked eye.

The Space Power within it was also gradually becoming more and more stable.

Hanging at their waists were uniform Identity Tokens.

They were the experts from the Xuanming Dao Sect, the faction that had opened the Boundary Wall and initiated the land-clearing mission.

Their cultivation had all reached the Integration Stage.

Before these people, Wang Dapeng was as fragile as an ant.

Merely the aura inadvertently emitted by these people made him feel as if he were carrying a mountain, and his forehead was instantly covered in cold sweat.

Sensing someone returning.

The Xuanming Dao Sect experts stopped reinforcing the gap in the Boundary Wall.

They all looked toward Wang Dapeng.

Sensing Wang Dapeng's cultivation, the group's expressions relaxed.

One of them said indifferently, "You are the cultivator who accepted the land-clearing mission, right? Why are you back instead of clearing the land?"

Wang Dapeng was extremely nervous inside.

But hundreds of years of life as a rogue cultivator had trained him to have a decent temperament.

He quickly calmed down.

A flash of embarrassment crossed his face, and he smiled sheepishly, "Seniors, this junior does not wish to participate in this land-clearing mission anymore."

Hearing Wang Dapeng's words, a flash of undisguised disdain crossed the eyes of the group.

The person who had spoken before even laughed out loud in mockery, "What, scared?"

Wang Dapeng felt a wave of unbearable shame; after fidgeting for a moment, he nodded, "This junior was indeed a bit blinded by the land-clearing rewards earlier; this junior still has a younger sister to take care of, and the family is also counting on me to revitalize it."

"This junior dares not take the risk anymore."

Upon hearing this, the mockery on the speaker's face grew even more intense, "Useless thing, keeping you here will only affect the morale of the troops; get lost."

"Do not come back in the future; the opportunities of this place have been completely cut off from you."

"Yes, yes, yes~ This junior will get lost right away~"

Wang Dapeng was moved to tears and nodded repeatedly.

Afterwards, he walked into the spatial rift with a face full of excitement.

……

Black~

Boundless darkness.

This was Wang Jianqiang's first reaction after his consciousness awakened.

Immediately following.

A thick sense of doubt welled up in his heart.

Had he not already fallen?

Why did his Blood Rebirth Supernatural Ability not activate?

After he fell, shouldn't his Blood Rebirth Supernatural Ability have activated automatically?

Could it be~

That the Outside the Realm powerhouse was so strong that his Origin Soul Blood was destroyed before it could activate?

If that were the case, shouldn't his consciousness have already vanished?

What is going on right now?

Where is this?

Immediately following.

He then thought of how, before he fell, a red figure seemed to have appeared in the distance.

Who was that person?

Just at this moment.

A strong sense of weakness suddenly struck Wang Jianqiang's consciousness.

His consciousness went black.

When his consciousness recovered again, he discovered that the surrounding darkness had vanished.

A somewhat illusory, peerlessly beautiful face came into view.

"Xiaobai~"

Seeing this face, Wang Jianqiang called out subconsciously.

Xiaobai's face had originally been filled with worry, but the instant she heard Wang Jianqiang's voice.

The worry on her face instantly transformed into a look of deep surprise.

"Wang Jianqiang, you guy finally woke up."

"I just knew it."

"A scourge like you wouldn't fall so easily."

Wang Jianqiang twitched the corners of his mouth.

He looked around.

He seemed to be inside a transparent box.

Wait~

No~

He looked through the "box" at the familiar space outside.

He immediately realized.

This is inside the Spirit God Ring.

And he is currently inside the Ice Coffin.

It's just that.

Doesn't the Ice Coffin hold Xiaobai's physical body?

The Ice Coffin's space is not large, just enough to hold one person.

How did he get inside?

He looked down; Xiaobai's physical body was still there.

He should not have been able to get in.

He subconsciously looked at his own body again, and his heart was shocked.

At this moment, he had actually become a humanoid mist less than a palm in size.

The mist was extremely faint, as if a single breath could blow it away.

Seeming to notice Wang Jianqiang's astonishment.

Xiaobai shook her head and said softly, "Your physical body has already fallen, and even your Nascent Soul has perished."

"If not for me using the Ice Coffin to protect a wisp of your Residual Soul, you would likely have completely fallen by now."

Wang Jianqiang was stunned upon hearing this.

He subconsciously looked beside the Ice Coffin.

Beside the Ice Coffin, a cluster of deep blue flames was floating.

Beneath the deep blue flames was a mangled corpse torn into several pieces.

It was his physical body.

He could clearly feel that the Origin Soul Blood was still intact within his physical body.

He could not help but feel speechless.

No wonder he hadn't resurrected.

It is not that the Blood-Dropping Supernatural Ability is unreliable.

It is just that...

I have not died completely yet.
