At the entrance of the Ancient Battle Soul Path, the "door" forcibly torn apart by spatial cracks resembled a giant mouth twisted in pain, its edges flickering with an unstable chaotic glow.
Viscous void sludge dripped from the door's crack, corroding the ground with pits that emitted a pungent, foul stench.
A body covered in bizarre rust-colored bone markings was gently enveloped by a pure and domineering space power, gradually being pulled out from within the "door."
This person was the severely injured Jiang Shu.
His body was in tatters, his skin shriveled like dehydrated deadwood, muscles collapsed and atrophied; the once-mighty aura of his Dao Foundation had withered to barely perceptible levels, with only a faint ripple of his divine soul wave proving he had not entirely vanished.
