Chapter 1785: Chen Chuyang Appears, the Effect of Profound Yin Corpse Qi

Lian Hongchen widened his eyes, staring at Heishanyang in utter disbelief; at a time like this, it could still say such things—could it be stupid?

Heishanyang, could you have been addled?

Heishanyang: "……"

He turned, glared fiercely at Lian Hongchen, and Heishanyang said with a heavier tone: "You're the idiot, I'm fine; I'm speaking the truth—it's just a Profound Yin Corpse King, he's not invincible; having just revived, his strength hasn't recovered much, so he can be defeated."

We can't defeat him, but someone can.

The confident Heishanyang lost its earlier panic and worry, replaced by excitement and fervor; the look of having victory in hand truly astonished people and left them baffled.

"Who?" Lian Hongchen asked foolishly.

Heishanyang bared its teeth in a grin, showing a laughable set of teeth; Lian Hongchen dared not laugh or mock it, but stared at Heishanyang, feeling it had some backing—what could make it so confident?

Few could come to save them, and according to her knowledge, no one could be a match for the Profound Yin Corpse King.

Qinglong Daoren is indeed not bad, but he's still no match for the Profound Yin Corpse King; Lian Hongchen isn't underestimating Qinglong Daoren as her master, just speaking frankly.

The Tribulation Realm and below are like a heavenly chasm; each level represents a heaven and earth, and few can fight above their rank; the Profound Yin Corpse King is at least a strong one of the fourth tribulation, and it's continually growing stronger—if given another sacrifice, it could become even stronger.

The Profound Yin Corpse King set its sights on the Heavenly Capital Dragon King and Diewumeng, wanting to devour one of them; as for Lian Hongchen, she was too weak to interest it, and the Corpse-born Lotus wasn't mature enough to be devoured immediately—its potency needed to be maximized.

If devoured now, it would have less than a tenth of its potency—that would be wasteful.

"He's here." Heishanyang said mysteriously, not pointing out Chen Chuyang's location; it could sense where Chen Chuyang was, and between them there was a contract, so they also knew each other's……whereabouts.

It can't be sensed from afar, but up close it can still be sensed.

"Where is he?" Lian Hongchen exclaimed excitedly, looking around but failing to locate the newcomer.

Around them, aside from themselves, only three figures in the sky remained—Diewumeng and the Heavenly Capital Dragon King battling the Profound Yin Corpse King; this fight won't stop easily, and at this point it's either you die or I perish—there's no third option.

"Hehe." Heishanyang didn't speak, but looked toward a direction.

Lian Hongchen followed the gaze and saw a figure walking slowly toward them, step by step, arriving at their side, standing there with arms crossed, looking not like someone come to fight but like someone come to watch a show.

He blinked, then blinked again.

Staring at the man beside her, Lian Hongchen felt very familiar, and in the next moment her eyes widened.

"It's you, Master." Lian Hongchen saw the stranger's face, knowing the master had disguised himself and masked his aura, which prevented her from recognizing him at first—after all, she wasn't Heishanyang and hadn't spent much time with Chen Chuyang, so she couldn't tell.

Heishanyang had remembered Chen Chuyang's aura, so it could recognize him immediately.

After a moment, Lian Hongchen also recognized him; through their bodily connection she knew the person's identity, and his aura had changed so completely that he was nothing like the original Chen Chuyang.

He stood here as if merged with this cave heaven, emitting no detectable aura—just like the dust of this place.

Had she not seen him with her own eyes, she might have fallen victim to his sneak attack.

"Master, how did you come?" Lian Hongchen exclaimed excitedly; no wonder Heishanyang was so confident—it turned out the master himself had arrived, not a clone.

At this moment, Lian Hongchen felt full of confidence and no longer worried.

"What? I can't come?"

"No, no, Master, your arrival is perfect—this is the Holy Medicine Corpse-born Lotus, not yet mature but soon." Lian Hongchen pointed at the Corpse-born Lotus and explained: 'The Corpse-born Lotus still needs some blood nourishment; Master, this Profound Yin Corpse King is just right—let the Lotus devour him and it will surely mature.'

Heishanyang nodded and said: 'Not bad, kid; if the Corpse-born Lotus isn't mature, its potency is greatly reduced and it's not a true Holy Medicine—it must be fully mature before it can be used, and we mustn't……mess around.'

"The Profound Yin Corpse King is a fusion of the Corpse Refining Sect's Heavenless Corpse Venerable and Second Corpse General; activating its consciousness let it revive, but this person is still extremely weak, with barely a trace of strength—it's best to strike now and kill him before he regains power."

"This person can devour others' vitality and flesh to restore himself, so we must stop him from doing so."

Heishanyang immediately reported the information, letting Chen Chuyang be aware; these details must be made clear, but we mustn't let the information cause Chen Chuyang harm.

The Profound Yin Corpse King is no ordinary person—we must be extremely cautious.

"I know." Chen Chuyang replied softly; he already knew all this, which he could see from Heishanyang's memory and from Lian Hongchen's perspective, but normally he wouldn't look or act this way.

After receiving Heishanyang's message, he immediately began investigating and learned some information about the Profound Yin Corpse King; knowing the enemy and oneself ensures victory in every battle.

For an enemy of their level, they must know in advance the opponent's divine abilities, weapons, and techniques, so they can prepare beforehand and increase their chances of winning.

"Just knowing is enough; don't be careless—the Profound Yin Corpse King has lived many years and can stir up storms in Tianwai; he's no ordinary person." Heishanyang reminded again, worrying that Chen Chuyang might underestimate him and give him an opening.

"Got it." Chen Chuyang waved his hand, lifted his head, and looked toward the Profound Yin Corpse King.

In the battle among the three, corpse qi and demonic power clashed, with corpse qi gaining the upper hand; the Profound Yin Corpse King pressed the two fighters, using Profound Yin Escape and Profound Yin Hand in tandem, and the Corpse King himself activating them, skillfully controlling his abilities and switching at will.

Switching between the corpse king's form and his own, one must say the Profound Yin Corpse King's mastery of his own abilities is truly proficient, with deep understanding.

Conversely, the Heavenly Capital Dragon King and Diewumeng's combat strength gradually weakened, as the Profound Yin Corpse Qi continually sapped their strength; the entire cave heaven was filled with Profound Yin Corpse Qi, deliberately done by the Corpse King.

Expending so much corpse qi to fill the cave heaven certainly wasn't for waste.

"Profound Yin Corpse Qi is quite good—stronger than any corpse qi I've known before, and it can even freeze souls."

Chen Chuyang raised his hand, seized a clump of Profound Yin Corpse Qi, held it before his eyes to observe it, watched for a moment, opened his mouth, and swallowed it.

Beside them, Heishanyang and Lian Hongchen tried to speak up to stop him, but it was too late.
