Chapter 348: Blocking Jun Xiaoyao from Entering the Burial Realm—An Unexpected Ally

The Ancient Holy Body, Jun Xiaoyao.

The Cang Tian Ba Ti, Chu Tianba.

These two, one is the Jun Clan's divine son who swept the wasteland heavenly realm undefeated.

The other is the supreme prodigy, leader of the Ten Little Kings of the Ten Domains of the Eternal Burial Land.

Their meeting stirred up countless storms, drawing the gaze of countless beings.

Many present, upon hearing Chu Tianba's words "Jun Clan Holy Body," froze in expression.

"I… I didn't mishear, did I? Chu Tianba called him the Jun Clan Holy Body—that Jun Clan divine son is truly the legendary Ancient Holy Body?"

"Correct, it must be him. No wonder this Jun Clan divine son's flesh is so formidable, even surpassing the Corpse Dragon Clan—he's the Ancient Holy Body, unmatched in physical might."

"But wasn't the Ancient Holy Body said to have become a ruined body? How is this Jun Clan divine son still so powerful?"

"Who knows? Prodigies cannot be measured by ordinary standards."

Upon learning Jun Xiaoyao was the Ancient Holy Body, a wave of uproar erupted.

Before this, almost no one knew Jun Xiaoyao was the Ancient Holy Body.

After all, information between the Eternal Burial Land and the heavenly realms remained highly isolated.

Only top-tier factions like the Death King's Palace could gather news from beyond.

Ordinary denizens of the Burial Land had no idea what transpired in the heavenly realms.

Yet once they learned, the Burial Land beings grew even more excited.

This was a once-in-ten-thousand-years clash between the Holy Body and the Ba Ti!

Hearing Jun Xiaoyao's contemptuous words, Chu Tianba coldly replied: "Ruined body? Ha… what right does a so-called Ancient Ruined Body have to speak like this?"

Chu Tianba's words held some truth.

The Ancient Holy Body and the Cang Tian Ba Ti have been ancient enemies—a fact known to all.

In historical records, both sides had won and lost.

But since the recent ancient era began, ten celestial shackles descended, restricting the growth of the Ancient Holy Body.

Gradually, the Ba Ti began to overshadow the Holy Body.

This was precisely why Chu Tianba was so confident.

In the recent ancient era, the Ancient Holy Body was inherently inferior to the Cang Tian Ba Ti, struggling to grow, let alone reach completion.

Hearing Chu Tianba's words, the beings present subtly agreed.

Even those standing with Jun Xiaoyao—Lang Huan, Qin Xian'er, and others—had to admit it.

The Ancient Holy Body did indeed carry the reputation of a ruined body.

Yet hearing this, Jun Xiaoyao wanted to laugh.

Chu Tianba's vision was pathetically narrow.

He did not know Jun Xiaoyao had shattered all ten shackles since birth.

Without exception, Jun Xiaoyao would one day transform into a Completed Ancient Holy Body.

This was virtually certain.

At that time, all Ba Ti would be crushed beneath him.

"A well frog cannot speak of the sea; a summer insect cannot speak of ice. What is there to say to a creature as short-sighted as you? Just lie quietly back in your coffin and don't crawl out again."

Jun Xiaoyao's calm words sent Chu Tianba's aura surging violently, making him resemble a furious lion.

The nature of the Cang Tian Ba Ti is always domineering, supreme, and solitary—how could they endure such provocation?

Especially since Jun Xiaoyao, though usually quiet, could be devastatingly sharp with words—truly capable of driving men to rage.

Many prodigies had already felt Jun Xiaoyao's venom before.

"You're asking for death…" Chu Tianba couldn't hold back, ready to strike.

"Don't rush. The opportunities in the Burial Realm are most important. Once your Ba Ti fully recovers, dealing with him will be effortless."

Beside him, a Death King's Palace elder stopped Chu Tianba, whispering.

Though the Death King's Palace had full confidence in Chu Tianba,

Jun Xiaoyao was truly not to be underestimated.

Such a low-level mistake as underestimating an opponent would not be made.

Hearing this, Chu Tianba felt a flicker of resentment but held back.

"Afraid to act?"

Seeing Chu Tianba retreat, Jun Xiaoyao showed no mercy, exposing him outright.

"You… hmph. Within the Burial Realm, I will fight you!" Chu Tianba's face turned icy.

He and Jun Xiaoyao would inevitably clash.

Jun Xiaoyao didn't care.

Honestly, for such an incomplete Ba Ti, Jun Xiaoyao couldn't even muster interest.

Defeating him would bring no satisfaction.

"Enough. Prepare to enter." The Death King's Palace elder glanced coldly at Jun Xiaoyao, then spoke to Chu Tianba.

Deep in the distant void, a spatial rift existed.

It was a fissure torn open by the Burial Realm.

Aside from this rift, ordinary Burial Land beings could never enter the sealed Burial Realm.

Gazing at the spatial rift, Jun Xiaoyao felt a strange sensation.

As if something were calling to him.

Just as Jun Xiaoyao prepared to enter,

the Death King's Palace elder coldly spoke: "What are you doing?"

Jun Xiaoyao raised an eyebrow slightly, unsurprised.

"Entering the Burial Realm."

"You, an outsider prodigy, have the qualification to enter the Burial Realm?" the Death King's Palace elder said coldly.

"Exactly. Outsiders have no right to enter the Burial Realm," added the Eight-Armed Spider Demon elder.

Their clan's prodigy had been brutally slaughtered by Jun Xiaoyao—they naturally hated him intensely.

Yet remembering Jun Xiaoyao's origins and background, even their hatred dared not move to direct action.

They might bring total annihilation upon their entire clan.

"Correct. I also believe outsiders cannot enter the Burial Realm—it is an opportunity belonging solely to Burial Land beings," added the Corpse Cultivation Sect elder.

One thread pulled the whole fabric—other major Burial Land factions also voiced opposition.

Aside from the Asura Demon Kingdom, not a single faction stood with Jun Xiaoyao.

Clearly, the Burial Land beings still deeply resented Jun Xiaoyao's actions within their territory.

"Didn't you have this rule before?"

Facing unified opposition, Jun Xiaoyao remained calm, showing no sign of anger.

"There wasn't one before—but there is now," said the Devouring Demon Serpent elder.

Mo Ling crossed his arms, sneering at Jun Xiaoyao.

Go ahead and be arrogant—now you're powerless, aren't you?

Indeed, because of Jun Xiaoyao's origins, they dared not act against him directly.

But merely blocking his entry into the Burial Realm? That was simple enough.

Long Xiang, Mo Ling, Jiu You Ao, and other prodigies watched coldly, eager for the show.

Preventing Jun Xiaoyao from entering the Burial Realm and claiming its opportunities benefited them too.

"I've seen selfish people—but never ones this shameless." Jun Xiaoyao shook his head slightly.

If you can't accept defeat, fine—but don't resort to childish tricks.

The denizens of the Eternal Burial Land are nothing more than this.

"I admit your origins are astonishing—but this is Burial Land. You must abide by Burial Land rules," said the Death King's Palace elder, expressionless.

They followed the orders of the Heavenly Burial Emperor to block Jun Xiaoyao's entry.

A cold gleam flashed in Jun Xiaoyao's eyes.

The Nine-Miracle Reincarnation Immortal Grass might be inside the Burial Realm—Jun Xiaoyao must enter.

"Heaven is vast, earth is wide—no one dares block this divine son's path. Are you prepared to bear the cost?"

Jun Xiaoyao swept his sleeve, voice icy.

Instantly, his aura left the Burial Land elders gasping for breath.

Just as Jun Xiaoyao prepared to unleash his ultimate technique,

the void shattered—a long, flawless jade hand pierced through space and slammed a palm toward the Death King's Palace elder.

The Death King's Palace elder had no time to react, no time to scream—he was instantly reduced to a spray of blood and flesh.

Instantly, the atmosphere froze—all were stunned.
