Chapter 884

The ocean was too terrifying for ordinary people. The azure seawater trembled, like a place radiating infinite magic, making one dare not look up.

“Look down there.” Yang Tian’s gaze fell below, and he smiled. Experiencing this was truly excellent for forging a strong heart.

Qing Xiaoyue stared below and shouted, “What are you doing? You can’t actually burn mountains and boil seas, can you? Don’t fool me.”

Yang Tian flicked his finger, and the Three Flavors True Fire descended. The golden flame exuded a terrifying aura. Before it even landed, under Qing Xiaoyue’s stunned gaze, the entire area she could see instantly turned into a great abyss!

“This, this…” Qing Xiaoyue’s jaw nearly dropped. How was this possible? She felt dizzy and couldn’t accept it.

Yang Tian’s sleeve shook slightly, and the Three Flavors True Fire returned. At the same time, he flicked his finger, and countless sea fish fell down, including a large shark that was released.

These were all living creatures, ordinary beings, each trembling in fear, puzzled about what had just happened.

“You can do it too.” Seeing Qing Xiaoyue’s dazed expression, Yang Tian chuckled inwardly. He couldn’t help recalling his own younger self, the little one who wanted to become a strong traveler of the continent, all the way to the present.

Although he had stepped into a certain realm, there were still things he felt powerless about. The mysteries of heaven and earth were too vast.

“Really!” After a moment of silence, Qing Xiaoyue’s eyes sparkled with brilliant colors, and she couldn’t help shouting.

“Of course, but it depends on whether you work hard enough.” Gazing down at the endless ocean, Yang Tian smiled.

“I will work hard, become a queen, and burn mountains and boil seas!” Qing Xiaoyue spread her arms and let out an excited cry.

Yang Tian couldn’t help tapping her forehead and laughed repeatedly, but said no more.

Over the endless ocean, Yang Tian took a step and left that place, arriving in another region. At that moment, he suddenly noticed that the rate of merit decrease had slowed significantly.

“Found you at last.” Yang Tian smiled inwardly. He slowed down considerably, wandered around for a while, and finally locked onto a target.

Yang Tian’s body landed inside. The two black-clad men at the door were startled—how did this guy appear here?

He waved his sleeve, and the two guards fainted. He took Qing Xiaoyue and walked inside.

In the endless darkness, a sudden loud crash came. The heavy door shattered, letting in sunlight that illuminated the hall inside.

“Damn it, who? Which bastard dares to disturb me at this time!” The Red-robed Archpriest was furious, roaring wildly, and at the same time withdrew the Book of Life and Death, but found he couldn’t move.

Yang Tian walked over and glanced at the Red-robed Archpriest, frowning. This man had a monstrous resentment and death aura缠绕, having killed many people.

The Red-robed Archpriest also saw a young man. Just as he was about to rage, he suddenly noticed a deity descending behind him.

Qing Xiaoyue was surrounded by clouds of merit, like a goddess appearing there. Her skin radiated dazzling light, as if she had descended from heaven, dreamlike and illusory.

“A god, a god…” The Red-robed Archpriest was horrified, trembling and growling. Had a god come to punish him?

At that moment, Yang Tian’s gaze fell on the Book of Life and Death. It looked like an ordinary object, but when he noticed the words on it, a cold glint appeared on his face.

He also looked puzzled. The Red-robed Archpriest seemed almost like an ordinary person, only knowing some cultivation methods, but all heretical.

“How can an ordinary man activate the Book of Life and Death?” Yang Tian was full of doubt. Even a mortal could dissipate merit—this was too terrifying. The Book of Life and Death must contain divine power.

“It’s him!” Qing Xiaoyue also noticed, furious. If not for Yang Tian being here, she would probably be in hell by now, dead of old age.

Seeing the goddess angry, the Red-robed Archpriest trembled all over, cold sweat on his back. Had the god discovered his sins? Come to cleanse his evil heart?

She kicked him directly, hitting him in the crotch. His face turned green, veins bulging, and he screamed, feeling his manhood was broken.

“God, forgive my evil deeds, forgive this sinner.” The Red-robed Archpriest knelt, trembling all over, with a pious expression as if repenting.

“God your head!” Qing Xiaoyue’s innate ferocity was strong. This man had dared to kill her—how infuriating!

The Red-robed Archpriest trembled, also puzzled. Why would a god curse? Were his sins so severe that even the god couldn’t help but rage?

“What bullshit Red-robed Archpriest! You dared to kill me? Watch me beat you to death!” Qing Xiaoyue’s body was full of golden radiance, with a peaceful and vast aura, infinite divine power.

She grabbed the Red-robed Archpriest by the collar and beat him violently. The feeling when she had aged earlier was too terrifying, and she never expected it was done by an unrelated person.

“What? You’re Qing Xiaoyue!” The Red-robed Archpriest nearly died of fright, sobbing. He never thought he would dare to curse a deity.

He was scared silly for a moment. He had actually dared to curse a deity, angering the god to descend and punish him.

Yang Tian’s hand moved slightly, and he pointed at the Red-robed Archpriest’s brow. A stream of memories surged out, and he extracted them.

After reading the memories of the Book of Life and Death, Yang Tian was stunned. So this thing was a secret the old codger had accidentally discovered.

The Book of Life and Death couldn’t be used by just anyone. He had stumbled upon it, smeared his blood on it, and inexplicably activated it.

“That shouldn’t be. How could such a thing be so easily used?” Yang Tian was puzzled. At that moment, he moved his lips and recited the Dao Scripture, trying to resonate with the Book of Life and Death.

After chanting for a while, Yang Tian felt a throbbing sensation from the Book of Life and Death. He closed his eyes slightly, connected with it, and his mind gradually entered a mystical space.

It was a lifeless hall, like the underworld. Yang Tian’s gaze swept around, and he saw the Red-robed Archpriest sitting cross-legged on the throne ahead.

His body was very stiff, seemingly unaware that a soul was inside. He didn’t notice Jiang Nan’s arrival at all.

“Phew, luckily it wasn’t obtained by the demon race, or the world would be in chaos—write one word, kill one person!” Yang Tian’s expression was grave. A divine light shot from his eyes, directly killing the Red-robed Archpriest’s soul.

A drop of blood fell from Yang Tian’s hand onto the throne, and soon a person identical to him appeared.

“I understand. The artifact spirit of the Book of Life and Death has long perished. This old codger just got lucky to use it.” Yang Tian murmured.

His mind spread out, scanning the Book of Life and Death a few times. He picked up the brush and wrote his own name on it.

“Are you crazy? Why are you writing your name?” Qing Xiaoyue saw him writing his own name and couldn’t help screaming.

“This is the Book of Life and Death, a treasure of China. You can’t write on it,” the Red-robed Archpriest seemed to repent, quickly saying.
