Chapter 299: 298. Coffin Lifting (1)

The mysterious aura of the imperial decree was added to Chen Chuhua’s body. Her body suddenly sank slightly and she regained her footing. She was not sucked in by the dim light in front of her.
She gently exhaled, and the formation flashing with a dim light in front of the two of them began to tremble like water.
The formation became blurry, and then like a reflection on the surface of the water, a scene appeared in front of the two.
It was as if they were lying in a black coffin, and the lid of the coffin had become transparent at this moment.
Looking out through the coffin lid, he could vaguely make out that the black coffin seemed to be submerged in the water.
The water was black, blocking their vision and making it difficult for them to see anything else.
But now, as the black coffin shook, the water surface above also began to fluctuate violently, as if it was boiling.
The black stream of water dispersed in all directions, allowing Chen Luoyang and Chen Chuhua to barely see the situation around them.
Then, they saw countless bones gathered into a mountain of bones that pressed down on the black coffin.
The mountain of bones was extremely huge, and the number of bones was uncountable.
Chen Luoyang focused his gaze and discovered that these bones weren’t scattered. Instead, they were countless complete human skeletons.
Furthermore, these white bones were all sitting cross-legged, their palms in front of their bodies forming a seal.
Countless white bones did the same thing. They sat together, layer by layer, forming a mountain of bones that pressed down on the black coffin.
Each of the skeletons emitted a faint sense of power and a firm will that seemed to be immortal after death.
At this moment, the black coffin trembled violently, causing the mountain of bones to begin to collapse. Chen Luoyang and Chen Chuhua could clearly see that the mountain of bones probably occupied several acres of land.
The skeletons collapsed one after another and spread out in all directions, giving off the feeling of an ocean.
When the mountain of bones dispersed and the black coffin rose, Chen Luoyang and the other two could clearly see that other than the black water and the white bones, there was a third layer of seal above.
This seal was even larger, forming a formation that covered the sky and the sun, enveloping the surrounding space.
Chen Luoyang swept his gaze around and saw the thick earth and soil. He could see the turbulent and majestic river that was suspended in midair. He could see the pagoda that was refined from metal and was more than 100 feet tall. He could see the boundless sea of fire and a towering tree.
Although this tree couldn’t be compared to his Life Creation Divine Tree, it was still extremely huge. Its branches were lush and its shade covered the sky.
As the five elements powers circulated, they formed a huge array that suppressed the black coffin together with the mountain of bones and the sea of ink below.
The black coffin was now floating up and down, breaking through the sea of ink and overturning the mountain of bones.
However, the invisible seal above unleashed its power. Under the five-colored light, it seemed to suppress the black coffin again.
However, in the black coffin, as Chen Chuhua’s connection with this evil treasure became deeper, the upward force of the black coffin became stronger and stronger.
The vast black mist swallowed the power of the five elements, then pushed open all the letters and was about to break through the air.
At this moment, a hand reached out from the void, trying to press down on the black coffin and sink it back into the sea of ink.
When Chen Luoyang and Chen Chuhua saw this, they understood that the owner of this palm should be the powerful aura that they had sensed earlier.
Even though they were separated by the black coffin, it still made people tremble in fear.
However, when the two of them looked at each other, they could see the glint in each other’s eyes.
According to the scene outside, the owner of this palm could not be considered the owner of the black coffin.
It was not a controller or an owner. At most, it could only be considered a holder.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have needed to put so many layers of seals to suppress the black coffin.
However, the owner of this palm had a terrifying aura. With a stretch of his hand, the black coffin sank.
The waves of the Black Sea below were surging and rising.
The black seawater seemed to form a pure black hand that was trying to grab the black coffin from below. Together with the hand above, it was trying to drag the black coffin back into the sea.
Chen Chuhua nodded at Chen Luoyang.
Since the other party was not the owner of the black coffin, or rather, the controller, he had a chance to use the power of the black coffin to resist it.
She took a deep breath and stepped forward. Her entire body sank into the dim light, as if she was stepping into the water that reflected the scene.
Chen Luoyang’s palm held onto Chen Chuhua’s body.
Only one of Chen Chuhua’s hands was still exposed.
From Chen Luoyang’s point of view, it was the black coffin’s first-person perspective, so his field of vision was limited.
At this moment, he could only see a large amount of black fog surging out.
Under the black fog, the black coffin seemed to have exploded with an invisible force. It shook the palm away and then rose again.
The giant palm that looked like a god descending to the mortal world showed signs of withering under the corrosion of the black fog. Its originally smooth skin quickly lost water and wrinkles appeared. It seemed to have aged a lot in an instant.
In the blink of an eye, the aura of power emitted from the palm seemed to have changed.
Vigorous vitality spread out from it, quickly relieving the corrosion caused by the death qi in the black coffin.
Chen Luoyang sensed the power concept within and was slightly dazed. He almost had an illusion that the other party had a page of the Heavenly Book with the word ‘life’.
The owner of this palm was also repairing the surrounding seals while resisting the power of the black coffin.
The countless white bones scattered in the sea of ink flew up again.
The bones, which were already in a mess, did not reassemble into complete human figures. Instead, they connected their heads and tails, turning into hundreds and thousands of bone chains that wrapped around the black coffin.
When Chen Luoyang saw this, he grabbed Chen Chuhua with one hand and formed a strange seal with his other hand.
The posture of this seal was very similar to the incantation on the first mysterious decree.
Then, he placed it into the black pot in his mind. The jade piece that looked like a tile emitted black fog and once again revealed the Earth Nether Form.
The dark underground world did not descend, but the power concept was added to the black coffin.
The black coffin seemed to have magnified the power of Chen Luoyang and the mysterious imperial edict at this moment, causing it to appear at a level that Chen Luoyang was unable to control freely under normal circumstances.
However, with the black coffin, the power of the underworld had increased greatly. It was as if the true underworld had descended into the world.
From the outside of the black coffin, another black hole had appeared in the depths of the black fog that devoured everything like a bottomless pit.
The black hole seemed to be connected to the reincarnation of the underworld. The aura coming from it dispelled the many white bone chains that were wrapped around the black coffin.
Green light seemed to be flying out of the bones.
These green lights entered the Netherworld Samsara and disappeared.
As for the white bone chains, they shattered and fell down, unable to continue maintaining themselves.
The aura of the palm pressing on the black coffin immediately changed.
Streaks of Buddhist light appeared in front of Chen Luoyang’s eyes, and Sanskrit chants sounded in his ears.
A buddhic energy domain akin to the western paradise gushed forth. A golden swastika appeared in the palm of that hand as it slowly revolved.
The swastika turned into a ray of light and flew out, throwing itself into the netherworld samsara in the darkness, as if it wanted to seal this samsara.
Chen Luoyang felt the other party’s power concept and clicked his tongue in wonder.
There was something strange about this person’s cultivation.
If it was really an orthodox Buddhist mighty figure, the few conventional seals that were set up earlier would not have such an evil existence like the White Bone Mountain.
As his thoughts raced, Chen Luoyang didn’t slow down at all.
He communicated with the second imperial decree he had obtained.
The image of a divine tree appeared in his mind.
The two edicts that came from the same source combined their powers, allowing Chen Luoyang to temporarily imitate a powerful will.
In other places, it might not be able to directly affect a strong enemy in reality.
However, with the enhancement and concealment of this mysterious black coffin, everything was different.
The owner of the palm was fighting with the black coffin when a voice suddenly came from the black coffin.
“Hmm?”
Other than feeling puzzled, he didn’t express anything else.
However, the palm that was pressing on the coffin lid seemed to stiffen slightly.
Then, the palm loosened.
The black coffin rose up and broke the seals before flying away.
In the Mortal World, in a palace that was even more vast and majestic than a city, the void suddenly trembled and cracked.
A black coffin rushed out of the ground and flew into the space crack, disappearing in an instant.
The crack in the void quickly closed.
Above the majestic palace, a pair of illusory eyes seemed to have appeared. They stared at the place where the black coffin had disappeared and remained silent for a long time.
Chen Luoyang’s view of the outside world through the coffin lid immediately changed. It returned to pitch-black once again, and only the dim light outlined a talisman array that was slowly flickering.
The images disappeared, but Chen Chuhua herself was still trapped in the array of dusky light.
Chen Luoyang tried to drag the other party out again.
Then, Chen Chuhua’s exposed skin was covered with mysterious runes. A dim light flashed on her body.
Whether it was his face, neck, or even his other hand, it was the same.
In her entire body, perhaps only her right hand that Chen Luoyang had grabbed earlier remained the same and wasn’t affected.
However, only the part below the wrist was normal. From the wrist up to the arm, and even further up, one could vaguely see runes flickering.
Chen Luoyang used Chen Chuhua’s right hand as the foundation to try to help her dispel the dim runes. However, the result wasn’t very optimistic.
The radiant runes were still there and never dissipated.
Chen Chuhua’s eyes were also tightly shut, as if she was unconscious.
Chen Luoyang was neither anxious nor impatient. He took out the second mysterious edict talisman that looked like a bamboo slip and gently tapped it on Chen Chuhua’s glabella.
After he took back the decree, he continued to inject the vitality of the ” Life ‘ Heavenly Book and the second decree into the other party’s body.
After a long time, Chen Chuhua seemed to tremble and slowly opened her eyes.
The runes on her body gradually disappeared.
However, Chen Luoyang noticed that these runes didn’t dissipate. Instead, they seemed to be buried beneath Chen Chuhua’s body.
She looked at Chen Luoyang, but her gaze was at a loss.
“Senior Sister?” Chen Luoyang called out to her.
Chen Chuhua’s eyes moved. She seemed to have finally come back to her senses, but she also seemed to have regained her vitality..
