Chapter 653: The Destroyed Palace of Qin Guang Wang

Several years later, following the records in the Jade Slip, Zhang Nuo finally saw a magnificent palace; this was the place where Qin Guang Wang resided!

Because of the events at Wushuang Saint Emperor City, the relationship between Zhang Nuo and Qin Guang Wu had become a life-and-death feud. The reason he appeared here was entirely to avenge the massacre of the city back then. With Zhang Nuo's current strength, dealing with a Qin Guang Wang should be no problem!

When he cautiously approached the palace, he strangely discovered that the palace was exceptionally quiet, with almost no Spirit Power fluctuations emanating from it. This matter was very unusual!

Generally speaking, the first place the souls of creatures from all realms arrive after death should be here. Why couldn't he even see the shadow of a cultivator? Could it be that someone had already arrived first?

Continuing to head toward the palace, Zhang Nuo pushed his Divine Sense to the maximum. After probing the situation inside the hall, a look of astonishment appeared on his face!

He saw that inside this palace of Qin Guang Wang, there were corpses of cultivators everywhere, of all different levels. There were even two cultivators at the Void Refinement Stage who had fallen within!

When Zhang Nuo arrived close by, he saw that these corpses all had varying degrees of wounds, every one of them killed by a single strike! Some of the deceased cultivators looked as if they had lost their lives before they even understood what had happened!

To be able to prevent such a large Qin Guang Wang palace from making even the slightest preparation, it seemed the attackers were many high-level powerhouses. The only possibility was that these were the Great Accomplishment Stage cultivators from various realms who had entered the Underworld!

However, Zhang Nuo was not clear about who had made the move. Looking at this scene, it would take at least three or four Great Accomplishment Stage cultivators working together to produce such an effect!

Zhang Nuo walked a few more steps and arrived in front of a main hall. He saw that it was covered in bloodstains, many surrounding buildings had been destroyed, and on the ground, there was a bottomless trench, as if it had been forcefully cleaved out by some Magic Treasure!

An attack of this magnitude was enough to rival a Mysterious Heaven Tier Magic Treasure! It seemed that among the nine Great Accomplishment Stage cultivators, there were indeed some formidable characters!

While thinking, Zhang Nuo walked into the main hall. He saw that it was still very messy, as if it had been ransacked. Several corpses of cultivators lay scattered on the ground; they looked like they had been dead for several days!

After searching the entire Qin Guang Wang palace, Zhang Nuo did not see a single living soul. Everywhere he looked were corpses, and some useful items had also been taken away by others! As for whether Qin Guang Wang was still alive, he did not know!

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Nuo decided to continue forward. Since cultivators had already arrived here, their next target must be the location of Chu Jiang Wang!

Chu Jiang Wang was the second of the Ten Kings of the Underworld, in charge of the Living Great Hell, also known as the Stripping Clothes Pavilion Cold Ice Hell. As for how strong he was, Zhang Nuo was not clear, but looking at the prestige of Qin Guang Wang, he imagined this Chu Jiang Wang would not be too weak!

With his escape light raised, Zhang Nuo flew toward the location of Chu Jiang Wang. The two kings' palaces were only about half a year's journey apart. When Zhang Nuo could see Chu Jiang Wang's palace, he saw that the sounds of fighting there were earth-shattering, and intense Spirit Power fluctuations could be felt from far away!

A cold sneer appeared on his face; he had finally caught up! It seemed someone had already started fighting with Chu Jiang Wang, but he didn't know which cultivators they were! Speeding up, yellow electric arcs flashed on Zhang Nuo's body, and rolling thunder echoed in the sky, as if heavenly thunder had descended, landing directly into Chu Jiang Wang's palace!

The two sides currently engaged in battle suddenly felt a powerful aura and immediately separated. At this moment, it was clear to see two cultivators in white robes standing on one side, while thousands of Underworld cultivators stood on the other!

Zhang Nuo looked toward the two white-robed cultivators, and a smile could not help but appear on his face. He saw that one of them had the character for "Demon" embroidered on his white robe, and one of his eyes was covered by an eyepatch; it was the great power from the Demon Realm, Lv Yuansheng. The other person had the character for "Break" embroidered on his white robe; it was Ding Zheng from the Po Ling World!

He hadn't expected them to be the ones attacking Chu Jiang Wang! Zhang Nuo moved his body and arrived in front of Lv Yuansheng and Ding Zheng, cupping his fists slightly and saying:

"Emperor has arrived a step late, causing you two fellow Daoists to suffer!"

"Haha! Human Emperor, you are not late at all! We have only just begun!"

Lv Yuansheng had had some dealings with Zhang Nuo back in the Demon Realm, especially since the Yin and Yang Qi in his body had been exchanged for Nirvana Divine Water, so he laughed very politely! At the same time, Ding Zheng also nodded slightly toward Zhang Nuo. Since the two did not have much of a friendship, they just exchanged greetings!

"Have you seen the other fellow Daoists?"

Zhang Nuo asked Lv Yuansheng, not even glancing at Chu Jiang Wang's side!

"Fellow Daoist Jiufang took a few people and continued deeper. They were afraid that a long delay would lead to trouble, so they dared not stop for even a moment!"

Before Zhang Nuo could say anything, he heard a loud, booming roar from the high sky opposite! Zhang Nuo followed the sound and saw, among the opposing cultivators, a figure over a zhang tall, with a head like a wheat measure and eyes like golden bells! His cultivation had even advanced to the Great Accomplishment Stage!

Without needing to think, Zhang Nuo guessed who this person was, and a cold smile appeared on his face as he said:

"Chu Jiang Wang!"

"Indeed, it is this King. You are Zhang Nuo?"

From the conversation between the two just now, Chu Jiang Wang learned that this newcomer was Zhang Nuo. Back in the Human Realm, Zhang Nuo had destroyed the physical body of Zhuanlun Wang, and later sealed the split soul of Qin Guang Wang in the Immortal Domain. Such a figure had long since become known throughout the Underworld! He hadn't expected to encounter him today!

"Human Emperor, leave this place to us! You hurry to Song Di Wang's location; I have always had a bad premonition in my heart!"

As soon as Lv Yuansheng saw Zhang Nuo about to make a move, he immediately spoke to stop him! Zhang Nuo's expression changed, because when cultivation reaches their level, they have more or less some intuition about unknown dangers, and even if it is very vague, it cannot be ignored!

"Very well! With Fellow Daoist Lv holding the fort here, I imagine there won't be any accidents!"

Immediately, Zhang Nuo's escape light rose, and he flew away into the distance!

"Brat! Where are you going! Stay here for this King!"

At this moment, Chu Jiang Wang was already furious, jumping with rage. The three Great Accomplishment Stage cultivators opposite him hadn't put him in their eyes at all, discussing countermeasures right in front of him!

He casually struck out a blast of Yin Qi, rushing toward Zhang Nuo! However, when the Yin Qi was halfway there, it was blocked by Lv Yuansheng!

"Chu Jiang Wang, your opponent is me!"

After speaking, the Demonic Qi on his body stirred, and several Magic Treasures were sacrificed simultaneously, smashing toward Chu Jiang Wang. At the same time, Ding Zheng, who was standing beside him, also flickered and joined the battle!

After Zhang Nuo flew a long distance away, he looked back and found that the battle on Chu Jiang Wang's side had started again. The surging Yin Qi and Demonic Qi intertwined, causing even the dark sky of the Underworld to tremble!

Although he had not had much contact with Lv Yuansheng, Zhang Nuo felt that with their combined strength, they should be able to deal with Chu Jiang Wang; even if they were not a match, they would not fall!

He then flew with all his might toward the location of Song Di Wang! Several months later, a magnificent palace appeared before Zhang Nuo's eyes, covering an area of ten thousand miles. However, unlike the two he had seen before, Underworld cultivators were entering and exiting Song Di Wang's palace frequently; it seemed it had not been attacked!

His heart tightened immediately. According to Jiufang Yi's plan, he had distributed the manpower, and every palace of the Ten Kings they passed would be attacked, and those who survived in the end would go to deal with the final Zhuanlun Wang!

But everything he saw now indicated that the cultivators who attacked Song Di Wang had failed, or even fallen! After thinking carefully, Zhang Nuo landed directly at the entrance of the palace!

As soon as his figure appeared, he was immediately discovered by two small Underworld cultivators guarding the gate! As soon as these two cultivators saw Zhang Nuo's attire, they ran inside without looking back, but Zhang Nuo gave a cold smile and reached out, pressing into the void toward them!

Boom! Boom!

Two loud bangs rang out, and the two small Underworld cultivators were pressed to death on the spot, almost like ants! Afterward, Zhang Nuo strode into the palace. Because the previous sound was too loud, several cultivators immediately poured out from the palace! However, once they discovered Zhang Nuo's cultivation, they slowly backed away!

Since he had already arrived here, Zhang Nuo would not show mercy. He flicked his fingers several times in succession, and streaks of Sword Qi tore through the sky and shot out. In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen cultivators fell into a pool of blood!

Zhang Nuo killed with every strike, not giving these Underworld cultivators any time to catch their breath. A few Integration Stage cultivators, seeing the situation was bad, had just steered their escape lights to flee, but they were forcefully pressed back to the ground by Zhang Nuo's powerful Spiritual Pressure, and then a sweep of Sword Qi left them headless!

In just a few breaths, the front entrance of the palace was flowing with blood, and dozens of corpses lay on the ground, yet there was not a single survivor!

The only thing that Zhang Nuo found strange was that he had killed so many cultivators, yet Song Di Wang still had not appeared. According to common sense, with the other party's cultivation, his Divine Sense should have long since sensed his Spirit Power fluctuations; why was he so slow to come out? Could it be that he had suffered some serious injury!

Thinking this way, Zhang Nuo continued to walk into the palace. Along the way, he was no longer blocked, and he couldn't even see the shadow of a cultivator!

However, a strange and eerie aura began to appear around Zhang Nuo, gradually making him feel a bit hair-raising! After entering the Great Accomplishment Stage, Zhang Nuo's physical body had been rebuilt by Heaven and Earth Origin Qi, and his state of mind had become incomparably tough after experiencing the Heavenly Demon Tribulation. He hadn't expected that a flaw would appear inside Song Di Wang's palace!

When he walked to the center of the palace, Zhang Nuo saw a scene that made him gasp! Evil Qi surged wildly from his body, and countless bloodshot veins climbed up his eyes!
