The colossal skeletal hand did not merely catch Li Tian; it intercepted him with the force of a falling meteor.CRASH!The massive, pale fingers—each one carved from what looked like the fused ribcages of ancient giants—snapped shut around his broken torso. The sudden deceleration sent a violent shockwave through his body, rattling his fractured ribs and forcing a ragged gasp of agony from his lungs. Yet, the expected impact of shattering against the stone floor never came.Instead, a suffocating, absolute silence enveloped him. The howling winds of the upper mountain vanished instantly, replaced by a stagnant, freezing pressure that felt like being submerged in liquid ice.Suspended in the palm of the titanic construct, Li Tian hung helplessly as the hand began to descend. It lowered him deeper and deeper into the primordial dark, moving with a smooth, terrifying speed. As the upper world completely faded into memory, an eerie, sickly green luminescence began to flicker far below.It

Li Tian slammed his mental fist onto the flashing selection screen."YES!"[Ding! Command received. Activating Sovereign Domain: Resurrection of the Ten Thousand!]The black screen exploded into millions of microscopic dark runes that shot directly into the stone floor of the palace. The ground didn't just shake; it broke apart like a brittle wafer.The World Devourer’s mountain-sized claw was already inches from Li Tian’s face, the suffocating wind from its descent ripping his tattered robes away and drawing blood from his skin.BOOM!Before the claw could crush him into a paste, the obsidian floor between them erupted. A wall of ancient, armored skeletal arms shot out from the dirt, instantly interlocking their bony fingers to form a massive, multi-layered shield of pure bone.The claw slammed into the skeletal wall with the force of a falling meteor.CRACK!Thousands of skeletons shattered into white powder under the immense weight, but the wall held. The World Devourer’s momentum

Zhao Feng scrambled backward like a dog, his hands scraping against the jagged stone of the ruined plaza. His face was a mask of pure, unadulterated horror. "L-Li Tian... you're a monster... you're supposed to be dead!"Li Tian didn't answer with words. He took a single step forward.BOOM!The sheer weight of his peak Foundation Establishment aura, mixed with the chilling dread of the Death Core, crashed down upon the Judgment Plaza. Hundreds of inner disciples who were standing nearby instantly coughed up blood, their knees buckling as they slammed face-first into the dirt. They couldn't even lift their heads under the pressure."A monster?" Li Tian’s voice was as cold as a winter tomb. "Ten years of bleeding for this sect, and you branded me a traitor. Today, I'll show you what a real traitor looks like.""Die, you demon!" Grand Elder Wu shrieked, his mind completely unhinged by the loss of his right arm and his ruined cultivation. With his left hand, he drew a crimson taloned dagge

The pale, colossal finger descended through the shattered sky, compressing the atmosphere until the air turned into solid, burning glass. The sheer weight of the Upper Realm deity's gaze immobilized Li Tian, trapping his feet deep within the cracked stone of the Judgment Plaza.[Ding! Warning! Host is targeted by an immortal-level entity from the Higher Plane!][Estimated impact time: 0.8 seconds. Survival probability: 0.0001%]"Livestock?" Li Tian spat, blood spraying from his lips as his new Core Formation base groaned under the immense gravity. He forced his head upward, staring directly into the giant blood-red eye in the void. "You high-and-mighty gods think you can use this continent as your breeding ground?!""Master! Step back!" Shao Qing screamed.The silver-haired Demon Empress didn't wait for his permission. The absolute slave contract inside her soul pulsed with a blinding black light, sensing his imminent death. She lunged forward, her silver hair turning completely purpl

The majestic voice from the clouds didn't just vibrate the air; it shattered the trees within a three-mile radius. The nine skeletal dragons drawing the floating black carriage unleashed a synchronized roar that sent a wave of physical yin-wind sweeping across the clearing.Standing on the roof of the massive carriage was a young man dressed in extravagant, blood-red groom's robes. His eyes burned with a cruel, dark green flame, his aura fluctuating at the peak of the Core Formation Realm. This was the Young Sect Master of the Corpse Yin Sect."A broken Core Formation brat and a weakened phantom bitch," the Young Sect Master sneered, looking down from his high perch at Li Tian. "You dared to slaughter my sect’s outer disciples on the day of my grand wedding to the Ice Phoenix Maiden? Die!"With a ruthless wave of his hand, the Young Sect Master commanded the lead skeletal dragon to lunge. The beast, larger than an iron battleship, dove down from the clouds, its jaw opening to release
