Chapter 1776

The siege and kill of the Heavenless Corpse Venerable has already begun, Tian Du Dragon King and Diewumeng took the lead in acting, Lian Hongchen and Heishanyang closely followed, this battle had long been prepared, waiting for the Heavenless Corpse Venerable and Bai Zhongsheng to decide the victor, then it would start immediately, giving the opponent no chance to recover, seizing his illness to take his life.

Above the sky, the sounds of fierce battle continued without cease, divine abilities, collision sounds, and the impact of power continually erupting, the corpse qi frenzy surged without cease, Lian Hongchen and Heishanyang were responsible for sneak attacks, Tian Du Dragon King and Diewumeng faced off head-on, both suffered only minor injuries, their strikes were killing blows, the purpose was very simple, to swiftly kill the Heavenless Corpse Venerable, leaving him no chance to react.

Below, the Second Corpse Commander and the Golden Armor Corpse choked back a sob, gazing at the battle in the heavens, the three exchanged a glance, the Red-Eyed Corpse Commander transmitted silently: "Second Senior Brother, perhaps we should retreat; this place is not suitable for lingering."

"Taking advantage of the fact that their battle hasn't ended yet, we will leave the cave heaven early and escape with our lives."

"This place is too dangerous; no matter who among them ends up laughing last, they will not have a good outcome; the Corpse-Producing Lotus is not something they can meddle with; at this very moment, giving up is the best strategy."

The Golden Armor Corpse echoed: "Second Senior Brother, I, the junior brother, also feel that what the Red-Eyed Junior Brother said is correct; we should still hurry and leave this place."

How could the Second Corpse Commander not understand this reasoning? He spread his hands and said: "How could I not know this reasoning? You think that leaving this place will allow us to survive? If my guess is not wrong, the outside has already been surrounded; the people of Tian Du Men Dust Accumulation Sect and Mangshan Demon Palace have already sealed it off completely; after we leave this place, can you break through their encirclement?"

Outside, it's likely already been sealed off; the Corpse Refining Sect has already fallen; all the disciples may have encountered misfortune.

The Corpse Refining Sect's defenses aren't that formidable; Lian Hongchen and the others could easily enter this place, indicating that the Corpse Refining Sect has already been wiped out; for the three of them to want to leave this place is also unlikely.

Going out means death; staying also means death; but staying might still offer a slim chance of survival; if they can end up laughing last, the three of them can complete their transformation, and thereafter they will no longer fear external enemies.

This is the sole path to life, and also their last opportunity; if they fail, all three will die.

The Golden Armor Corpse and the Red-Eyed Corpse Commander fell silent; how could they not understand this reasoning? But they were truly… afraid; whether it was the Heavenless Corpse Venerable, the Tian Du Dragon King, or Diewumeng, none were opponents they could handle; the Corpse-Producing Lotus requires sacrifices, and the three of them certainly cannot escape; in the end they will surely become one of its sacrifices.

The Corpse-Producing Lotus had not yet fully matured; having lost the Three Tribulations Corpse Refining Grand Formation, it also lost its energy and corpse qi supply, so its growth had nearly ceased; Bai Zhongsheng's death, his self-explosion dealt a massive blow to the Corpse-Producing Lotus; if not for the protection of the Tian Du Dragon King and Diewumeng, the Corpse-Producing Lotus would likely have been destroyed.

"Two junior brothers, our only chance is to end up laughing last."

"They will not let us three go; we need to unite and cooperate, together think of a way to find a chance at life; otherwise, we three will all become sacrifices of the Corpse-Producing Lotus."

The Golden Armor Corpse and the Red-Eyed Corpse Commander exchanged a glance, and both sighed.

"I'll follow the senior brother's lead." The Golden Armor Corpse had no recourse; this was a dead end.

Whether going out or staying, it's a dead end.

Their chance at life was long gone; Bai Zhongsheng died, and they followed suit.

The Red-Eyed Corpse Commander gritted his teeth and said: "Second Senior Brother, Golden Armor Senior Brother, we are not dead yet, we still have an opportunity; we cannot just give up like this."

"At worst, we'll go all out, even if we have to—"

The words, upon reaching this point, could not be continued; he knew that no matter what he did, there was only one outcome: death.

There was no escaping it.

"Bang."

The Heavenless Corpse Venerable's body collapsed not far away; the disheveled him immediately rose, quickly distancing himself from that spot; the next moment, an attack struck down, the ground collapsed, the Tian Du Dragon King Flame scorched the earth, and everything around was burned to ashes by fire.

It left a patch of scorched black; if the Heavenless Corpse Venerable were a step slower, he would become ash of the Tian Du Dragon King Flame.

The Tian Du Dragon King promptly appeared not far away, walking toward the Heavenless Corpse Venerable; Diewumeng stood atop him, her eyes constantly flickering, controlling everything about the Heavenless Corpse Venerable, wishing to completely dominate him and then kill him.

"Dream Entry Art."

Diewumeng whispered softly, her eyes flickering, her eyes shimmering like the moon; above the sky, a pair of eyes appeared, enormous eyes occupying the heavens, gazing down at the Heavenless Corpse Venerable and them; mysterious undulations spread, and the Second Corpse Commander and the Red-Eyed Corpse Commander both closed their eyes, daring not to look at the eyes in the sky.

They had all suffered losses, naturally knowing Diewumeng's terror; the Heavenless Corpse Venerable had never encountered it, but the instant he lifted his head, he jolted awake, his whole body spasming violently, forcibly waking from the enchantment.

"Pfft."

A mouthful of fresh blood spurted out; the Heavenless Corpse Venerable had no time to lament; before his eyes appeared the figure of the Tian Du Dragon King, its dragon claw lunging at his chest.

"Puchi."

The Heavenless Corpse Venerable reacted swiftly, dodging, but his chest was still torn, a chunk of flesh ripped away.

The Corpse King's body, stubbornly, lost a chunk of flesh.

Flames burned on the Tian Du Dragon King's dragon claw; those bits of flesh were instantly incinerated, turning into blackened vapors that drifted around.

"Tsk tsk tsk, your reaction is truly fast; I never expected your Dao heart to be so steadfast, actually remaining clear-headed from Diewumeng's Dream Entry Art."

"No wonder you are the Heavenless Corpse Venerable, the old ancestor of the Corpse Refining Sect; you are indeed formidable, far more so than Bai Zhongsheng."

Seeming praise, actually, was mocking him.

The Heavenless Corpse Venerable lowered his head, glanced at his chest; a little more and he would have been severed at the waist; the Tian Du Dragon King's dragon claw is far stronger than an ordinary high-grade Spiritual Artifact, its sharp claws sharper than a blade; his body could not… resist.

"Heavenless Corpse Venerable, you are truly formidable, able to awaken so quickly from my Dream Entry Art; over these many years, you are the first." Diewumeng couldn't help but sigh; though she had been hit, she could still wake swiftly, and indeed he was the first.

As for Chen Chuyang, from beginning to end he was never deceived.

That person doesn't count.

The Tian Du Dragon King is not as formidable as the Heavenless Corpse Venerable; his Dao heart is truly steadfast.

"Hmph."

The Heavenless Corpse Venerable wiped the blood from his mouth; as a Corpse King's body, his physique had not yet fully recovered, and he underwent battle once more; these people truly intend to kill him; he must not be careless or negligent, for a moment's inattention would get him killed.

"These people truly intend to kill me; the Tian Du Dragon King is dangerous, and Diewumeng this woman is even more dangerous."

Although most of the time it is the Tian Du Dragon King who takes action, it is Diewumeng this woman who is the most terrifying; a moment's inattention will cause one to be entranced by her, then drawn into the illusion she constructs, unable to extricate oneself.

That woman is truly the most lethal; compared to the Tian Du Dragon King she is even more deadly; although Diewumeng's cultivation is not strong, only at the Second Tribulation, her divine abilities and threats far exceed the Second Tribulation.

Compared to the Third Tribulation Tian Du Dragon King, she is even more terrifying, even more annoying.
