Chapter 548 - 329: Unity of Spirit and Body! The Tyranny of the Ancient God’s Legacy

Through his spatial Perception, he could clearly "see" the dense, dark army marching step by step into his preset ambush.

...

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The Black Rock Tribe’s Military Array advanced slowly, but with immense pressure.

Qing Shan rode on the back of his mount, an Earth-Split Beast, his Crimson eyes scanning the swamp ahead.

He could smell the lingering stench of that scoundrel snake, Hiss, in the air, as well as the unfamiliar, iron-and-blood scent of a Foreigner.

’Master’s order was to probe.’

’Then I’ll use my fists to drag these skulking insects out of the mud one by one and crush them!’

Qing Shan grinned, revealing stark white fangs.

He despised the Black Viper Tribe’s methods of sneak attacks and poison more than anything.

’A true powerhouse should just steamroll them openly!’

Just then, a sudden, extreme sense of crisis erupted from the depths of his soul. The black, keratinous layer covering his body instantly tensed.

’Danger!’

This was the combat Intuition he had honed through countless life-and-death battles.

But the surroundings were empty. There wasn’t even a whisper of wind.

"On guard!"

Qing Shan let out a deafening roar as his vast Divine Thought swept out in an instant.

But it was too late.

Just as the Black Rock Tribe’s vanguard stepped into a seemingly ordinary clearing ahead...

A formless, intangible, yet supremely sharp attack had already crossed a distance of three hundred meters, stabbing directly toward the Sea of Consciousness in his brow!

The strike was unbelievably fast and utterly silent!

At that moment, the situation within Qing Shan’s Sea of Consciousness changed dramatically.

The instant the crisis arrived, his vast Power of Divine Soul had already coalesced and taken form.

It was not an ethereal, insubstantial Spirit Body, but a black Stone Ape identical to his physical form, sitting cross-legged!

The Stone Ape’s eyes were tightly shut, its entire body exuding an aura as heavy as a mountain. It was as if his Divine Soul and physical body had long since fused into one, becoming indistinguishable.

This was the Ancient God Cultivation Technique Profound Prison had taught him—the Unity of Spirit and Body!

Just as the pale gold Three-Inch Heart Sword was about to pierce the Stone Ape’s brow...

The majestic, unmoving Stone Ape abruptly opened its eyes!

Its eyes had no pupils, only two dazzling, earth-yellow halos as brilliant as suns!

"ROAR!"

A soundless roar exploded on the level of the Divine Soul.

The Stone Ape raised its rock-like arm, clenched its fist, and threw a punch!

There was no exquisite technique in this punch, only pure, ultimate power and Will!

It was as if the weight of an entire mountain range had been condensed into that single fist!

Earth-yellow divine light flowed over the fist’s surface, forming a thick fist aura!

The next moment, the pale gold Three-Inch Heart Sword and the earth-yellow fist aura collided fiercely within Qing Shan’s Sea of Consciousness!

There was no earth-shattering explosion.

The wisp of consciousness Han Feng had placed in the Three-Inch Heart Sword felt as if it had crashed into an erupting volcano!

CRACK!

The Three-Inch Heart Sword, which had been amplified by all of his Sword Aura, let out a clear, mournful cry after a stalemate that lasted less than a tenth of a second.

In an instant, spiderweb-like cracks covered the Heart Sword.

And then, it shattered violently!

It dissolved into a sky full of golden motes of light, dissipating within Qing Shan’s Sea of Consciousness.

As for the earth-yellow fist, although it had been pierced through with a small hole and its light had dimmed slightly...

...the immense Giant Strength it contained viciously rebounded along that unseen connection!

"Pfft!"

In the real world, Han Feng suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, his face instantly turning as pale as paper.

It felt like countless steel needles were churning inside his head. The world was spinning, and he was seeing stars.

His Divine Soul Origin suffered a violent Vibration from that last collision.

Although [Heart Clarity and Nature Seeing (High Level)] had negated most of the damage, the impact of that pure power still left him reeling.

He had lost.

A complete and utter defeat.

His strongest Divine Soul Attack hadn’t even managed to break through the enemy’s "Spirit Body" defense.

It had only created a barely visible crack on the Stone Ape’s fist, which was instantly repaired by a boundless flow of Divine Power.

They weren’t even in the same league.

"Foreign... insect..."

A cold, domineering thought crossed the void and locked onto Han Feng.

Qing Shan slowly raised his head, his Crimson gaze precisely locating Han Feng, who was hovering in midair. The corners of his mouth twisted into a cruel arc.

He raised his thick right arm, spread his five fingers, and then, facing Han Feng’s direction, clenched his fist violently!

VMMMM—!

An invisible domain, so heavy it was suffocating, instantly descended!

The lush grass on the ground was instantly flattened, and even the surrounding earth sank by a foot.

Han Feng felt as if the air around him had instantly turned incredibly viscous.

A terrifying Gravity, more than twenty times normal, crushed down on him from all directions.

His Body-Protecting Sword Aura groaned as if under an unbearable weight, and his body began to plummet involuntarily toward the ground.

’Run!’

It was the only thought in Han Feng’s mind.

He fought through the searing pain in his Divine Soul and the immense pressure on his body, and with a single thought...

SWOOSH!

The portal to the [Sword Tomb Space] opened behind him, and an invisible suction force pulled at him.

The moment before he was sucked into the Space, he saw Qing Shan’s enormous palm slapping down.

Before the palm even arrived, the air beneath it was compressed into a wall visible to the naked eye.

"BOOM!"

Han Feng’s figure vanished from his spot, and the giant palm slapped solidly down on empty air.
