On the desolate plains of the illusory world, the Xuanming Beast stood with its back against the sea and its feet firmly planted on the ground. Waves of dark yellow energy and deep blue light continuously emerged around it, merging into its body. Its form expanded at a visibly frantic pace, quickly surpassing a hundred meters! The Xuanming Beast, already wielding the powers of earth and water, found this terrain to greatly enhance its strength.
Meanwhile, the Heavenly Sea Dragon soared into the sky above the ocean, twisting and turning as it summoned storms. In an instant, dark clouds rolled in, thunder cracked, fierce winds howled, and torrential rain poured down. The towering waves roared with a grandeur that eclipsed even the charge of a thousand troops, as if they were about to engulf the entire projection world! It truly lived up to its name as the Heavenly Sea Dragon.
At this moment, Jiang Chen stood amidst the barren land, howling at the sky as waves of Primal Aura converged around him. These currents spun rapidly, seemingly tearing through space to completely obscure his form; only his dimly glowing red eyes could faintly discern through the Primeval energy! Qian Mo's Embalming Coffin Realm was akin to a manifestation of primordial chaos in this world, providing Jiang Chen with an inexhaustible source of Primal Aura that felt like a great boon.
Even if he managed to survive this relentless obliteration by the heavenly laws for now, he knew that one day he would inevitably be transcended by the Embalmer lineage. Despite the seemingly friendly demeanor of the human race below during this Boundary Induction, once he left this place, he—this fierce beast—would be seen as nothing less than a potent elixir for them, a mortal enemy! That was a scenario he did not wish to witness.
Thus, even under threat from the Heavenly Sea Dragon and suppression from the Xuanming Beast's power, Wuliao resolved to fight back. He was dissatisfied with his current existence; he wanted to rebel! He aspired to become a Boundary Soul and transcend!
Jiang Chen shuddered as his dark green corpse hair bristled. His crimson eyes glowed ominously. Wuliao's words did resonate with him somewhat; however, what truly attracted him was not merely the promise of becoming a Boundary Soul but rather the potential relationship with the Embalmer lineage should Wuliao succeed.
The young man below possessed exceptional roots; even in his countless years of existence, Jiang Chen had never encountered anyone like him. Even observing those who protected him made Jiang Chen feel the young man's significant standing within the Embalmer lineage. After all, several elders and a middle-aged man clad in Azure Robe emanated a sense of deadly threat in his perception!
If he helped Wuliao become a Boundary Soul, leveraging that connection might genuinely persuade the Embalmer lineage to agree to his terms—never to embalm him! After all, as one of the Primordial Four Corpses, he was already beyond the five elements and outside of reincarnation's heavenly laws. To him, in this world where all races had vanished and only humanity remained supreme, the only danger lay with this group of Embalmers. If he achieved his desires, he could simply restrain himself in the future and cease his malevolence in exchange for eternal freedom—what could be more wonderful?
With these thoughts in mind, Jiang Chen finally steeled himself and nodded.
"Very well, I will lend you my strength. But I do not wish to become a Boundary Soul; I want you to facilitate my relationship with them and guarantee that the Embalmer lineage will never embalm me. Of course, I won't make it too difficult for you—I vow from now on not to commit evil."
