Nine Nether Heavenly Emperor
Chapter 1207 - 1192: Opening the Coffin
The hardness of the white coffin was such that even with Shi Feng's full slash, it couldn't leave the slightest mark on it.
As the coffin plummeted toward the center of the giant pit, Shi Feng pursued it fervently and suddenly shouted with a booming voice: "Explode!"
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!" All of a sudden, thunderous explosions echoed one after another.
Dark magical lightning bolts erupted from the pale coffin, instantly forming a black sea of thunder that engulfed the white coffin.
The full-force slash Shi Feng had just delivered was infused with the "Nine Thunders Appear" technique. Upon Shi Feng's command, the dark thunderbolts slashed into the coffin erupted violently.
The black thunder sea that had enveloped the coffin continued to descend downwards, just like the coffin before it.
Soon after, the black thunder sea fiercely struck the center of the gigantic pit!
"Boom boom boom boom boom!" The earth, which had quieted down, once again let out intense groans.
Shi Feng's rapidly descending figure had already reached above the black thunder sea.
As Shi Feng arrived, the black thunder sea began to weaken and disperse, revealing glimpses of the white coffin within it.
"Hmm? What is this thing made of?" As the black thunder sea continued to dissipate, when Shi Feng once again saw the coffin, he let out a shocked exclamation.
The coffin remained intact despite the violent bombardment of the black thunder sea!
"Trying to escape?" Shi Feng immediately noticed the coffin make a sudden move, as if attempting to sink into the ground below.
However, having seen it again, without discovering what was inside, how could Shi Feng let it escape so easily!
"Nine Nether White Bone Claw!" In a low growl, Shi Feng's left hand formed into a claw, grasping towards the coffin below from mid-air.
Soon after, an enormous ghostly white bone claw appeared above the coffin, enveloping it within.
In the next moment, the ghostly white bone claw fiercely clenched and trapped the escaping coffin within its grasp.
This coffin only possessed the power of a one-star demigod, and Shi Feng's use of the Nine Nether White Bone Claw with two-star demigod power was more than enough to handle it!
Once captured, the coffin trembled and struggled violently within the bone claw.
No matter how much it struggled, the enormous ghostly white bone claw held it tightly, not allowing any escape under its power.
At this moment, Shi Feng's figure had reached the coffin. Looking at the vigorously trembling coffin, he snorted disdainfully:
"Hmph! I arrive and you still won't settle down. It's simply asking for trouble!"
As he snorted, Shi Feng's left hand formed into a fist, delivering a fierce punch directly onto the coffin.
With a loud "boom", Shi Feng's fist clashed fiercely with the coffin, causing the pale coffin to tremble violently under Shi Feng's punch.
At this time, a white thunder light glimmered on Shi Feng's right hand. Knowing the coffin's power, the Bloodthirsty Thunder Sword was unnecessary; bare hands were sufficient to handle it.
Thus, Shi Feng allowed the Bloodthirsty Thunder Sword to revert to white thunder patterns.
Then, Shi Feng's right hand also formed into a fist, pounding vigorously onto the coffin again.
The coffin was caught by his Nine Nether White Bone Claw and still remained unruly, so Shi Feng was prepared to beat it until it submitted.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!" Punch after punch, fierce and raging blows echoed continuously throughout the world.
At that moment, Shi Feng's hands grasped the cover of the pale coffin.
With a sudden motion, Shi Feng prepared to lift the coffin lid directly.
Instantly, an immense force as heavy as a mountain emanated from Shi Feng's hands. It was unexpected that merely a coffin lid possessed such weight!
"Ha!" Shi Feng let out a great shout, switching from lifting to pushing, using all his strength.
With a "crack", under Shi Feng's forceful push, the coffin lid moved slightly, producing a crisp sound and revealing a small gap.
"This! This! This! This! This!" At the moment the coffin lid gap was revealed, Shi Feng's previously enraged expression transformed drastically.
His eyes widened, his face covered with extreme shock.
From the needle-thin gap in the coffin lid emerged an incomparably grand and powerful aura, making Shi Feng feel utterly fragile and insignificant beneath it.
Beneath that aura, it felt like he could be easily and swiftly annihilated.
The Nine Nether White Bone Claw that was holding the entire coffin had long since disappeared under that aura!
This aura seemed utterly out of place in this world.
Shi Feng had only experienced such a vast aura within the Flame Extreme Cave during the battle between the Flame God Monarch and the True God Battle Sword-wielding Little Mi.
"This... could it truly be the aura of the True God Realm! Could the body within this coffin be the remains of an Ancient True God from my Tianheng Continent?"
With these thoughts, Shi Feng's hands moved suddenly again with all his might.
With another "crack", the coffin lid was slightly shifted under Shi Feng's full force, closing the gap.
The aura that had emanated from the coffin had brought Shi Feng, who was so close, such discomfort; it felt as if he was suffocating, like a Death God squeezing his throat, ready to extinguish his existence.
This level of power was beyond what he could withstand.
"Huff! Huff! Huff! Huff! Huff!" With the coffin closed, Shi Feng gasped heavily, feeling a wave of relief.
He felt if the coffin lid remained open, he would surely perish under that aura!
"True... True God Skeleton? Reaching such realms of ancient legend, even the skeleton possesses such a mighty aura?"
Gazing at the pale coffin's tightly sealed lid and recalling the aura that emerged earlier, Shi Feng remained filled with lingering dread.
Initially perceiving that the coffin only held the power of a one-star demigod, he thought the existence inside wouldn't be significant.
He never expected...
"That... that aura!" Flame Saint Son Huo Yu had long been alerted by the earlier explosions.
Standing at the edge of the enormous pit above, looking down below, his face was also filled with extreme shock.
Then, Huo Yu exclaimed inwardly with shock, "This... this coffin, this demon, possessing such a powerful artifact. What on earth is his origin!"
