221: The coffin guardian appears, signifying the majesty of the imperial coffin.

"Coffin Guardian?!" Yan Huang's pupils constricted, and the flames around him instantly surged! Dragon Emperor's ten-thousand-zhang dragon body suddenly coiled, letting out a heaven-shaking dragon roar! Flower Without Shadow and Miao Yin also had their expressions drastically change, instantly raising their auras to the extreme!

The aura emanating from this black figure was even more terrifying than that of the previous Pavilion Master Tianji! Moreover, the information revealed in his words was even more alarming! He was merely a 'Coffin Guardian'? Then what kind of terrifying existence must the 'master' behind him be?!

"Ants dare to be presumptuous before the Emperor Coffin?" The Coffin Guardian let out a hoarse sneer. He did not rush to act but slowly raised an arm shrouded in black mist, pointing towards the burial emperor coffin suspended in the air!

"Awaken, Spirit of the Emperor Coffin! Turn these ignorant intruders into blood food to nourish you!"

"Boom—!!!"

As his voice fell! The dark red burial emperor coffin suddenly erupted with monstrous blood-red light! The twisted resentful spirit carvings on the coffin body seemed to come alive! They let out silent, mournful wails! A wave of Emperor's Might, even purer, more ancient, and more tyrannical than that of the Coffin Guardian, mixed with the power of deathly stillness capable of eroding all life, swept towards Xiao Chen and the other four like a tsunami!

"Not good! This Emperor Coffin is itself a living Emperor Armament!" Dragon Emperor let out an angry roar! He could feel that the destructive power contained within that Emperor's Might was enough to easily obliterate an ordinary Sixth Revolution Dou Saint!

"Chaos Emperor Domain, open!" Xiao Chen's eyes were icy cold, and he unhesitatingly expanded his own Emperor Domain to its maximum range! The five-hundred-zhang Chaos World forcibly resisted the blood-red Emperor's Might!

"Rumble—!!!!!!"

Two completely different Emperor's Mights violently collided! Releasing an ear-splitting roar! The entire Guixu Land violently vibrated! The barrier of the Chaos Emperor Domain twisted intensely! It was instantly covered in spiderweb-like cracks! The blood-red Emperor's Might actually carried a strange characteristic of corroding laws, frantically eroding the foundation of the Chaos World!

"Pfft—!" Xiao Chen grunted, a trace of golden blood overflowing from the corner of his mouth! His face was slightly pale! The power of this burial emperor coffin far exceeded his expectations! Even with his cultivation, which had just entered the Emperor Realm, resisting it was extremely difficult!

"Attack together! Attack that Coffin Guardian! He is controlling the Emperor Coffin!" Yan Huang roared, forming hand seals! A sea of flames, ten thousand zhang wide, appeared out of thin air! It transformed into a roaring fire dragon and directly pounced towards the Coffin Guardian!

"Dragon Emperor's Rage, Star-Shattering Claw!" Dragon Emperor's massive dragon claw tore through the void, carrying the supreme power to shatter stars, and fiercely grabbed towards the Coffin Guardian's head!

"Hundred Flowers Annihilation Array!" Flower Without Shadow lightly waved her jade hand, and countless petals, imbued with the artistic conception of life and death reincarnation, formed a massive array that enveloped the Coffin Guardian!

"Nine Nether Soul Suppressing Melody!" Miao Yin sat cross-legged, and an ancient zither appeared in her arms! Her fingertips plucked the strings, and waves of sound, striking directly at the origin of the soul, like invisible blades, slashed towards the Coffin Guardian's divine soul!

The combined attack of the four powerhouses had enough power to destroy heaven and earth! Even a peak Quasi-Emperor would not dare to take it head-on!

"Hmph... petty tricks!" The Coffin Guardian, however, let out a disdainful cold snort! He did not dodge! The black mist around him surged violently! It transformed into a massive black shield! Countless struggling, pained soul faces appeared on the shield!

"Myriad Souls Heaven-Guarding Shield!"

"Boom boom boom boom—!!!"

The fire dragon, the star-shattering dragon claw, the hundred flowers array, and the soul-suppressing sound waves almost simultaneously bombarded the black shield! Unleashing an earth-shattering energy storm!

However—

The black shield merely trembled violently! The soul faces on its surface let out mournful screams, but the shield itself did not break! It actually withstood the combined attack of the four powerhouses head-on!

"What?!" Yan Huang and the others' expressions instantly became extremely grim! Their full-power attack actually failed to even break through the opponent's defense?!

"The Emperor Coffin grants me power... how can you, these ants from the lower realms, possibly imagine it?" The Coffin Guardian let out a wild laugh! He waved his arm again!

"Emperor Coffin, Soul Devouring, Sea of Blood, rise!"

"Whoosh la la—!!!"

From the cracks of the burial emperor coffin's lid, a monstrous dark red blood surged out! The blood instantly transformed into a boundless sea of blood! Within the sea of blood, countless grotesque blood shadows, baring their fangs and brandishing their claws, pounced towards Xiao Chen and the other four! These blood shadows not only contained terrifying physical attack power but could also directly devour the souls of living beings!

"Be careful! This sea of blood can corrode souls!" Miao Yin exclaimed, her zither rapidly plucking, and waves of sound transformed into barriers to protect everyone's souls!

"Chaos Purification!" Xiao Chen's eyes sharpened! Within the Chaos Emperor Domain, a chaotic great sun rose! Emitting light that purified all things! It shone upon the sea of blood, making "hissing" sounds, and a large number of blood shadows instantly evaporated!

But the sea of blood seemed endless! Just as one area was purified, more blood surged from behind! Moreover, the Coffin Guardian took this opportunity to once again control the burial emperor coffin, releasing even more terrifying Emperor's Might to suppress them!

"This won't do!" Dragon Emperor roared, "Emperor Xiao! We must find a way to destroy that Emperor Coffin! Or interrupt the Coffin Guardian's control!"

Xiao Chen's gaze was fixed on the burial emperor coffin suspended in the center of the sea of blood, and the arrogant Coffin Guardian behind the coffin. He could feel that the Coffin Guardian's power was closely linked to the Emperor Coffin! As long as the Emperor Coffin was not broken, he was almost invincible!

"It seems... I can only use that..." A determined glint flashed in Xiao Chen's eyes! He slowly raised his right hand! In his palm, a miniature star tower quietly appeared!

"star tower, Emperor Armament, appear!"

"Boom—!!!"

A vast Emperor's Might, not inferior to that of the burial emperor coffin, soared into the sky!
