A powerful force, cold and irresistible, suddenly rose not far in front of Shi Feng, like a fierce beast that had suddenly awakened from slumber.

Following closely, after that ghastly white coffin gave a fierce tremor, the sound of hard ice cracking, "kacha, kacha, kacha..." continued to echo.

Right in front of Shi Feng, what initially appeared as transparent and formless ice now bore densely packed, criss-crossing cracks, like a spider's web.

With a loud "boom," the ice shattered abruptly like glass, with pieces exploding everywhere. Shi Feng saw the ghastly white coffin, seemingly enraged by the disturbance of its slumber, piercing through the flying ice debris and rushing rapidly toward him.

Even though he had returned to the Nine-star Martial Emperor realm, Shi Feng still felt a sense of being unable to resist the coffin.

Yet, although he knew he couldn't fight against it, Shi Feng didn't retreat even a bit; instead, he continued moving forward.

"Source of All Things! You damn Source of All Things! Are you coming out or not!" Shi Feng, with a determined expression and eyes fixed on the charging ghastly white coffin, continued pressing forward step by step, speaking in anger.

Shi Feng had completely thrown caution to the wind! If it doesn't come out, he'll just meet his end!

The closer Shi Feng got, the nearer the flying coffin, their collision inevitable!

Shi Feng sensed an overwhelming pressure from the front, the pressure of the Realm of Divine Grade, meant to make all living beings submit!

An unseen force was even pressing down on Shi Feng, forcing him to kneel.

Shi Feng endured, mustering all his strength against the invisible pressure and force. His body quivered and trembled as he gritted his teeth and continued forward step by step, shouting:

"You want me to submit to a coffin? To kneel before it and the dead inside? Foolish dreams!

I am the Emperor Nine Nether! The world will submit to me! The Realm of Divine Grade! One day, I too shall reach it!"

As Shi Feng roared in anger, part of his body pressed down by the invisible force suddenly straightened, standing even more erect.

And now, the ghastly white coffin was about to collide with his body. With its speed, in just one more breath it would crash into him.

Upon collision, Shi Feng would surely meet his end!

"Damn it!" Seeing the coffin about to reach him, Shi Feng let out another roar of anger!

Though aware he couldn't withstand the coffin's impact, Shi Feng still mustered all his strength to prepare to counter it.

At this moment, as his right fist clenched and struck the approaching ghastly coffin with full force, a brilliant golden light suddenly flashed on his fist, enveloping it in a golden glow.

In an instant, his fierce punch collided violently with the charging coffin.

"Boom!" An incredibly intense explosion, as if the world itself would be destroyed, resonated. The clash of two mighty forces caused the dark space to churn violently like a storm on the sea. The already shattered ice instantly disintegrated into nothingness.

Even the ice behind Shi Feng was destroyed under the fierce energy.

Shi Feng stood at the epicenter of this fierce energy. His white garments and long black hair billowed in the turbulent air, watching the golden glow on his fist collide with the white coffin, he shouted in a mix of shock and anger: "Source of All Things! You finally decided to appear!"

Yet in his heart, Shi Feng secretly sighed in relief, feeling the sensation of surviving a disaster. Just a little further, and he would have been scattered to the winds, but the damn Source of All Things finally showed up.

Subsequently, the Source of All Things on Shi Feng's fist and the ghastly white coffin trembled simultaneously.

Shi Feng felt a strong recoil spread throughout his body, causing him to be knocked back rapidly.

The ghastly white coffin too was forced back by the Source of All Things' power.

A year later, these two objects of Divine Grade met again, and once more, their powers were evenly matched.

Shi Feng flew back a full hundred meters before coming to a hard stop, while the ghastly white coffin in the darkness also halted.

Soon after, the stationary white coffin, as if unwilling, once again charged forward fiercely. Shi Feng sensed the golden glow on his fist tremble sharply, detaching and rushing forward.

"Boom!" Another earth-shattering roar, as the Source of All Things collided once more with the ghastly coffin.

Shi Feng, standing over a hundred meters away, had his clothes and hair whipped by the air currents from the colliding forces.

He floated quietly, observing and waiting patiently.

Seeing the ghastly coffin, Shi Feng thought of a way to escape this place, to lure out the coffin and reveal the Source of All Things, and use their constant collisions to smash the void and escape.

This was Shi Feng's only thought and hope to leave this place. He refused to stay in this dark, ghostly place forever until destruction came.

Just then, Shi Feng suddenly sensed chaotic space currents around, from all directions, like huge waves crashing fiercely toward him.

He had grown accustomed to these space currents as long as his strength didn't deplete, they couldn't harm him.

Though ready to withstand the chaotic currents, Shi Feng's attention remained focused on the battlefield, where the Source of All Things and the ghastly coffin were battling.

Once again, both divine objects recoiled from their power clash, but this time, without flying far, they fiercely charged and crashed into each other again.

"Boom!"
