359: The flawed jade is the king (ninety-eight).

Nine Supreme treasures emitting an ancient and terrifying aura quietly hovered in the center of that Chaos.

They were like ancient stars that had existed since the beginning of the Universe, revolving around those slowly condensing Chaos Double Pupils.

"Move."

Wang Yun and the Hundred Flower Maiden completed this simple exchange via Divine Thought almost simultaneously.

Time waited for no one.

Those Grey Giant Hands searching every inch outside the Emperor's Remains could discover this core location at any moment.

Once surrounded, the consequences would be unthinkable.

Both were well aware that greed was the original sin.

Any one of these nine Supreme treasures would be enough to drive a Nine Lotus Great Sage into a frenzy if taken out.

But they knew even better that wanting to take them all was nothing more than a pipe dream.

Wang Yun's gaze locked onto a peculiar Dao Bone that was dark gold all over and pulsed slightly like a heart.

The resonance, originating from the same source as the supreme ancient seal within him, was coming from that Dao Bone.

The Hundred Flower Maiden's goal was equally clear; her eyes never left that ancient seal, emerald green all over, as if condensed from the Ancestral Vein of Life.

That was the Supreme Legacy of the Grass and Wood Clan.

"In three breaths, we strike together."

Wang Yun sent another transmission, his voice extremely calm.

The Hundred Flower Maiden nodded slightly, her vast Life dao rhyme beginning to quietly withdraw and condense into a single point, ready to be unleashed.

Now!

Reaching a tacit understanding, their figures turned into two streaks of light, rushing toward their respective targets at maximum speed.

Wang Yun reached out with a large hand, golden Supreme Saint Power enveloping his palm as he grabbed directly for the dark-gold Dao Bone.

The Hundred Flower Maiden activated a Grass and Wood Divine Ability, an emerald vine like a living spirit snake coiling toward that ancient Life Seal.

However, at the very moment they succeeded.

A sudden change occurred!

Buzz—!

Those Chaos Double Pupils, which were still slowly condensing, suddenly went berserk as if their reverse scale had been touched.

A will of destruction erupted violently from within that embryonic form.

The other seven Supreme treasures floating nearby shone brilliantly, their violent Law powers weaving into a giant Law net that descended upon Wang Yun and the Hundred Flower Maiden.

Simultaneously, outside the Emperor's Remains, those Grey Giant Hands of pupil power that had been searching finally locked onto their position and surged frantically toward the core area.

"Go!"

Wang Yun roared.

He pulled the dark-gold Dao Bone into his body and swung his sword in a backhand strike.

On the blade of the peerless sword, the powers of the Light of the Epoch and the Primordial Chaos Domain intertwined, as an extremely condensed purple-gold sword light slashed fiercely at the Law net formed by the seven Supreme treasures.

The Hundred Flower Maiden had also stowed away the Life Seal. Without the slightest hesitation, she poured her Saint Power unreservedly into Wang Yun's sword light.

Bolstered by the pure Life dao rhyme, the power of the sword light surged, actually tearing a fleeting rift in the Law net.

"Charge out!"

The two combined their escape techniques, their figures narrowly rushing through the rift and fleeing desperately away from the Emperor's Remains.

Behind them were the roars of the embryonic Double Pupils and countless Grey Giant Hands grabbing from all directions.

It was a critical moment.

At the very instant they were about to be caught by the giant hands, the two finally broke free from the constraints of the Emperor's Remains and returned to the chaotic void of the Boundary Sea.

Because it had lost two key suppressing items, the massive Double Pupil Emperor's Remains began to experience violent energy riots within, rendering it incomplete.

An irreparable flaw had been struck into its path to revival.

The dark-gold Dao Bone was, in essence, the manifestation of "Contention."

And that Life Seal represented "Life."

Now, the absence of "Contention" and "Life" meant that the revival of this Self-Severing Great Emperor was flawed.

Wang Yun and the Hundred Flower Maiden, having just escaped with their lives, were not yet aware of any of this.

Before they even had time to catch their breath, a terrifying aura originating from the deepest depths of the Boundary Sea descended without warning.

Wang Yun's face turned pale.

He recognized this aura.

Or rather, he recognized the essence of this "existence."

Chaos.

It was that unique, terrifying existence capable of devouring everything, found within the "World" of the Boundary Pass.

But the aura before him was many times more primitive, pure, and terrifying than any "Chaos" he had seen in the Boundary Pass.

"Quick, leave! It's Chaos!"

He no longer had the luxury to wonder why such a thing would appear in the Boundary Sea.

The Hundred Flower Maiden's reaction was equally swift. As a member of the Grass and Wood lineage, she felt an instinctive fear and repulsion toward this existence that represented the end and nothingness.

She immediately realized that this was an existence they absolutely could not contend with.

She glanced at Wang Yun.

"Supreme Body, take care."

Before her voice finished echoing, the Hundred Flower Maiden's body began to become illusory and transparent.

Her entire being transformed into an emerald green seed emitting brilliant Life radiance, upon which the most ancient dao rhymes and Laws of the Grass and Wood Clan flowed.

This was the Grass and Wood Clan's ultimate Life-saving trump card: turning into an Incarnation of concept and merging into the sea of Laws.

As long as even a sliver of the concept of Life existed in the Universe, she would never truly die.

With a slight tremor, the Life Seed completely broke free from the "Chaos" lock-on, merged into the invisible sea of Laws, and vanished without a trace.

She had escaped.

But Wang Yun could not escape.

The moment he obtained the manifestation of the Law of "Contention," his battle will and competitive instincts were stimulated to an unprecedented peak.

At this moment, in the perception of "Chaos," he was like the brightest sun in the dark night, the primary target it most craved to devour.

Fight!

Only this single word remained in Wang Yun's mind.

The Supreme Saint Blood within his body burned, and eight Great Dao Lotus Flowers bloomed with brilliant divine light.

"Supreme Descends upon the Nine Heavens!"

He pushed the Law of "Contention" he had just obtained to its limit, and that Supreme Dharma Image became incredibly solid, carrying an aura that suppressed all ages as it slammed fiercely into the invisible "Chaos."

However, it was useless.

That Supreme Phenomenon, capable of suppressing a Nine Lotus Great Sage, was silently devoured and dissolved the moment it touched the "Chaos."

Wang Yun's heart sank, but he did not give up.

He swung his sword again, merging all his power and insights into this single strike.

This was his strongest strike since stepping into the realm of the Eight-Lotus Great Sage.

The sword light tore through the void, slashing toward the root of that nothingness.

The result was the same.

The sword light, capable of cutting down stars, was also easily devoured upon nearing the "Chaos."

All attacks and all resistance were futile before this primitive, ultimate nothingness.

Wang Yun felt a wave of powerlessness.

He felt his power, his Laws, his Divine Soul, and even his very existence being slowly pulled and dragged by that invisible force, about to be completely devoured.

In the moment before his consciousness was swallowed by darkness.

His figure was completely submerged by that massive and invisible "Chaos."
