Chapter 1495
"You Corpse Refining Sect didn't exert any strength this time, yet you attack the weak—what's the point?"
"How about this—we join forces for a big move, dare you?" Hei Hu smiled, eyes narrowed, looking at the Third Corpse General before him; the Corpse Refining Sect's Nine Corpse Generals, famous as thunder, one has already fallen, and if another falls, that would be even better.
Third Corpse General He Yi is indeed ranked third among the Nine Corpse Generals, third in overall strength, naturally not weak; as for the Green-Haired Corpse General, that's merely the weakest of the Corpse Generals—dead is dead.
Only when this person before us dies will the Corpse Refining Sect bleed.
"Black Mountain Tiger King, we seem to have no common interests between us, and as for joining forces, we don't need to." Third Corpse General He Yi would certainly not ally with demon beasts; these so-called demon beasts are actually more cunning than humans.
Even facing three Demon Kings at once, he would have to worry about his safety.
These three Demon Kings aren't particularly strong, but they excel at ambushes, especially the two silent ones beside them—Bai Xinlan and the Bee King—that's the most dangerous; he knows the demon beasts of Mangshan Demon Palace at Demon King level, each is not simple, their methods and divine abilities are strange.
The most strange Diewumeng has hidden herself, entering Tian Du Men; no one knows where she went or what she's doing, she could appear anywhere around at any time, he must be careful, let alone that Mangshan Demon Emperor.
He Yi does not want to confront the Mangshan Demon Emperor directly; that Demon Emperor is truly terrifying, and even though he has weakened considerably now, he still cannot oppose it.
Moreover, the Ni Cang Long inside Tian Du Men hates him to death; once he finishes handling the sect's affairs, it will attack him, and he wants to leave immediately, not wanting to face the crazy Ni Cang Long.
"You had better clear out at once, or else this Corpse General won't mind sending you to your deaths." He Yi threatened coldly.
At times like this, one's aura must be strong; cannot show weakness, otherwise they'll see through and his situation will become very difficult.
Hei Hu gave a cold smile: "He Yi, you need not threaten us; we are not Ni Cang Long, this place is not the Mangshan Mountain Range, and even if it were, I, the king, would not care."
"Your tricks can scare the people of Tian Du Men, but trying to scare us is just a dream."
Bai Xinlan said coldly: "Third Corpse General He Yi, don't think of leaving; stay here."
The Bee King raised its poison stinger, ready to strike at any moment; the demon beasts behind it were restless.
A Corpse General is right before our eyes—if we killed him, wouldn't that be...?
Third Corpse General He Yi's face turned cold, his pupils contracted, he stared fixedly at Hei Hu: "Hei Hu, are you really going to force me like this?"
Hei Hu stepped forward, disdainfully saying: "So what? He Yi, do you want to resist? Or do you think you're our match?"
"If you think you can, then go ahead and make a move."
Third Corpse General He Yi flew into a rage—he was truly furious.
Yet there was nothing he could do; these three Demon Kings had him figured out and would not let him leave.
It's obvious they want him to stay so he can draw Tian Du Men's fire, allowing them to escape safely.
none
Third Corpse General He Yi chose not to act, but stood in place; he dared not move or leave, for these three would truly attack him, yet he could not sit and wait for death, and with them staring, some actions could not be carried out.
Even the slightest movement would surely provoke these three Demon Kings to strike immediately; any talk of joining forces or cooperation is merely to pave a retreat for themselves.
The three demons are smart and also understand that once Tian Du Men is settled and the Tian Du Dragon King breaks through successfully, these demon kings will be in great danger; then each will flee for their lives, while Third Corpse General can effectively draw Tian Du Men's fire to buy them time.
The three demons exchanged a glance, a single look, and understood each other's thoughts.
The plan succeeded; the three demons did not relax their vigilance, but instead fixed their gaze on He Yi, not allowing him any movement.
none
The corpse energy was resolved, and the hidden measures He Yi left behind were also found.
The invading demon beasts were all slain.
Mu Longjie fled, Diewumeng vanished without a trace, the Tian Du Dragon Palace where the Tian Du Dragon King resided was located by the Mangshan Demon Emperor, who immediately attacked, striking toward the lake bottom.
This strike was blocked by the Tian Du True Person and others, who all spat blood.
The Mangshan Demon Emperor ignored them and continued to attack the Tian Du Dragon Palace.
Bai Hang Holy Maiden led people to block, but unfortunately, before she could act, she was blown away.
Her strength was far too inferior; she could not oppose it at all, not even get close.
none
The Tian Du Dragon King again used his divine power, annihilating everything outright, intending to force the Tian Du Dragon King out and make his breakthrough fail.
none
Tian Du changed color, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth fell into chaos.
The vortex on the lake surface dissipated as well, and in an instant the entire Tian Du Men returned to tranquility.
Immediately after, a terrifying aura burst forth.
none
The spiritual energy of heaven and earth dispersed, the surrounding aura followed suit, a domineering aura spreading outward from Tian Du Men, making everything within a hundred li fall silent.
A pair of eyes opened, and in that instant Dragon Might spread out, suppressing all.
none
The dragon's roar echoed, Dragon Might shone brightly, and everyone, all demon beasts, at this moment, were frozen.
The annihilating divine power then dissipated, and the Mangshan Demon Emperor let out a muffled groan, his body flung backward.
The Tian Du Dragon King's figure appeared in midair, he lowered his head to gaze at everyone below, nodded to the Tian Du True Person, who let out a sigh of relief and showed a hint of a smile.
"Hahaha, Your Excellency the Dragon King has finally emerged; it looks like the breakthrough succeeded."
The two uncles beside him also exhaled in relief; both were exhausted, resisting the Mangshan Demon Emperor's divine power having been extremely perilous.
Unlike frontal combat, defense is often the most unpleasant and also the most humiliating.
"Your Excellency the Dragon King has emerged; our mission is complete."
none
The two elders exchanged a glance and each sighed.
Outside, Hei Hu and the others' faces changed.
"The Tian Du Dragon King has emerged—his cultivation."
"Not good; we still need to leave quickly."
Bai Xinlan saw the moment the Heavenly Capital Dragon King appeared, without saying a word, she directly ran away.
The Bee King's speed was not slow either, closely following behind.
The three Demon Kings fled in an instant; the other demon beasts reacted, and as soon as they could move, they turned and ran off without looking back.
The slower demon beasts would become the targets of the hunt.
Before leaving, they deliberately played a petty trick, binding the Third Corpse Commander He Yi so he could not leave immediately.
After they had left, the Third Corpse Commander He Yi finally gained control of his body, but it was already too late.
Three figures appeared before him—Ni Canglong, Wu Mie Zhenren, and the Lofty Eyebrows True Person—showing up all at once and immediately attacking him.
"He Yi, you deserve to die."
"Heavenly Capital Sword Technique."
"Lofty Eyebrows Sword Technique."
"Dragon-Slaying Sword Intent."
"Kill."
The three's killing moves descended instantly, killing intent impossible to conceal; the moment they saw the Heavenly Capital Dragon King appear, they knew the time for a counterattack had come.
At once they sought to kill the Third Corpse Commander He Yi; others could be spared, but he alone had to die.
