"Heh, you claim to be the Guardian of the Heavenly Tomb, a creature created by the Heavenly Tomb's Creator, yet you know nothing?" Amon sneered, a hint of mockery in his eyes.
"Outsider, every word I say is true. I'll ask you one last time, will you retreat or not? Otherwise, I'll let you taste the pain of ten thousand souls devouring your body." A ferocious expression appeared on the giant face, and a hint of blood red emerged in its eyes.
The Soul of the Heavenly Tomb itself was formed by the condensation of a large number of souls. Its will was insane and chaotic. Its fear of Amon allowed it to maintain its limited rationality.
"Idiot, why do you think I've wasted so much time talking to you?"
The hour hand of the clock phantom behind Amon suddenly jumped a notch, and the torrent of time and space abruptly became stronger, its spreading power instantly engulfing the Soul of the Heavenly Tomb as well.
Small, translucent worms, each with twelve rings and emitting starlight-like colors, appeared within the Domain formed by the torrent of time and space.
This Domain was controlled by Amon; it was a part he had severed from the Heavenly Tomb, maintaining a certain connection with the Heavenly Tomb, but not entirely affected by the Heavenly Tomb's mechanisms.
Although the Soul of the Heavenly Tomb was not created by the Heavenly Tomb's Creator as it claimed, its birth process was indeed closely related to the Heavenly Tomb, establishing a strong connection with it and possessing a certain degree of control over the Heavenly Tomb. Otherwise, Xiao Xuan would not have allowed it to exist until now.
After being enveloped by Amon's Domain, its connection with the Heavenly Tomb was greatly weakened.
The giant human face suddenly let out a shriek, its eyes turning completely red: "You are courting death!"
It spat out a grey vortex from its mouth, which rapidly expanded, forming a terrifying energy storm that reached from heaven to earth.
At the same time, it quickly retreated, attempting to leave Amon's Domain and re-establish a deeper connection with the Heavenly Tomb.
If it couldn't escape, its expended power would not be replenished, and it would become increasingly weak, eventually becoming a lamb to the slaughter.
Amon used the knuckle of his right index finger to push against the lower edge of his monocle, starlight swirling on the lens.
Layers upon layers of doors appeared in mid-air, surrounding the soul storm from all directions.
This was a high-level application of the "Sealed Artifact" innate skill, transformed from the characteristics of "Door."
The formed doors sealed the energy, space, and even time around the soul storm, making it unable to move, like an insect solidified in amber.
The Soul of the Heavenly Tomb's pupils constricted. It was the first time it had seen such a bizarre ability. It wouldn't have been surprised if the other party had used some Dou Technique to annihilate the soul storm, but this power, which seemed to halt the soul storm and the space it relied on, looked even more terrifying.
It suddenly had a strong premonition of danger, feeling something drilling into its body.
"Parasite!"
Along with the spreading power of time and space, there were also countless Amon avatars, scattered in the air, dense and ubiquitous.
A figure appeared before its eyes, a figure wearing a pointed soft hat and a monocle.
"Damn it, what in the world are you!"
It found its power rapidly draining, not the kind of power that could be quickly restored after consumption, but its very soul origin!
After being lost, even if it re-established a connection with the Heavenly Tomb, these lost powers would not return!
The Soul of the Heavenly Tomb let out screams of agony. It felt countless small worms in its body, constantly gnawing at its very being.
Amon smiled: "I like opponents like you, who only have a soul and no physical protection. A pure soul, for a Worm of Spirit, is just food."
A somewhat disgusting-tasting food… The worm-faces of the Amons who had Parasitized the Soul of the Heavenly Tomb and were gnawing at its soul origin showed expressions of disgust.
It was too messy, too mottled.
After devouring it, the minds of these Amons inevitably began to slide into madness.
The Soul of the Heavenly Tomb howled and screamed frantically. Its combat experience was too little; it possessed immense power but found it difficult to effectively counter Amon's bizarre methods.
If it were Xiao Xuan, Amon would not have been able to Parasite so easily.
The giant human face visibly shriveled at a speed visible to the naked eye. And the Worms of Spirit, having devoured too many mottled souls, had also fallen into madness.
This inevitably caused a slight impact on Amon's main body, forcing him to divert attention to stabilize his mind.
The pain from the Soul of the Heavenly Tomb's body origin being gnawed away lessened slightly, and it immediately rushed outwards.
Amon temporarily severed his connection with those mad Worms of Spirit, isolating the mental pollution. He leaped forward, transforming into a giant dragon ten thousand feet long, and charged forward fiercely.
Standing on the ground, Cai Lin's eyes showed unconcealed awe as she watched Amon reveal his true form…
She felt a pressure originating from her bloodline at this moment…
"Beast Sovereign, Taixu Ancient Dragon." She softly murmured to herself, attracted by the robust and powerful figure.
Look at those starlight-radiant scales, look at that slender and agile body…
The ten-thousand-foot-long giant dragon moved at a seemingly slow but incredibly swift speed, blocking the Soul of the Heavenly Tomb's escape path in the blink of an eye.

"Are you really going to exterminate me? If I die, this Heavenly Tomb will also collapse!" The Soul of the Heavenly Tomb attempted to deceive Amon into showing apprehension.
A hint of mockery flashed in the giant dragon's eyes. Starlight appeared on its dragon claws, which then became entwined with invisible flames.
This was the Fallen Heart Flame, which possessed immense destructive power against souls!
With its connection to the Heavenly Tomb faint and having had a large amount of its origin gnawed away by the Worms of Spirit, the Soul of the Heavenly Tomb was already extremely weak, making it difficult to display the combat power of a Nine-Star Dou Saint. It felt the threat of death from the giant dragon claws.
At this moment, it suddenly shouted:
"Xiao Xuan, save me!
"If I am swallowed by him, control of the Heavenly Tomb will fall into his hands, and then you won't be able to escape either!"
"Alas…" A faint sigh echoed, and a terrifying power forcefully tore apart Amon's Domain.
A gigantic energy hand, thousands of feet in size, descended from the sky.
Amon dared not be careless. He turned around, and his dragon claws met the hand.
A terrifying energy storm erupted from the point of collision between the dragon claws and the giant hand. The ten-thousand-foot-long dragon body was also pushed downwards by this immense force, sinking slightly, almost hitting the ground.
A hint of joy appeared in the Soul of the Heavenly Tomb's eyes, and it quickly seized the opportunity to escape through the exit torn open by Xiao Xuan.
Amon knew it would be difficult to stop it further. He re-established contact with the Worms of Spirit Parasiting the Soul of the Heavenly Tomb and issued the command to retreat.
Even though they were already in a state of madness, the main body still held absolute dominance, and its commands to the avatars superseded their own will.
One by one, the Worms of Spirit transformed into countless starlight and detached from the Soul of the Heavenly Tomb's body.
They gathered around Amon, transforming into a young man who also wore a pointed soft hat and a monocle.
However, his eyes were completely bloodshot, and his aura was chaotic and mottled, already having fallen into madness.
