Zhao Yu passed through the corridors and arrived inside a palace.
The palace had already been shattered and broken, clearly having endured an incredibly cruel battle.
"Found it! The Metal Immortal Chart!"
After searching through the ruins for a while, Zhao Yu flipped through and retrieved a spiritual chart, a flash of joy crossing his eyes.
That spiritual chart was none other than the Metal Immortal Chart, a relic left by immortals!
Suddenly, a black, ink-like poison needle shot towards Zhao Yu like a ghost.
The Nine Extremes Corpse Emperor, which had been following closely beside Zhao Yu and vigilantly obeying his orders, burst into action as soon as the poison needle was fired, grabbing it with a swift claw.
Clang!
The dark poison needle pierced the Nine Extremes Corpse Emperor's claws, barely penetrating its golden skin before being firmly grasped in its hand, trembling incessantly.
The Nine Extremes Corpse Emperor opened its mouth and directly sprayed a stream of grey-black corpse energy onto the poison needle.
The quite formidable poison needle was contaminated by the Nine Extremes Corpse Emperor's corpse energy, losing its spirituality and no longer moving.
"You've got some nerve to destroy my Seven Elemental Poison Demon Needle!"
A figure dressed in black, with a sinister face – a Fourth-Order Great Demon of Transformation from the demon race – emerged from the side with a dark expression.
"Did you see that?"
With a flicker, Zhao Yu activated the Mountain Divine Light, enveloping his body with layers of divine light, then coldly looked towards the Great Demon of Transformation and said.
"Yes! I am the Sea Insect Demon Palace's Palace Master, the Seven Insect Demon Monarch. Hand over that spiritual chart, or today will be the day you mourn!"

A cold gleam swept through the Seven Insect Demon Monarch's eyes as he unleashed the terrifying aura of a fifth-layer Nascent Soul, saying with a grim smile.
A cold flash passed through Zhao Yu's eyes as he shouted, "Since you've seen it, that's just your bad luck, you can die now! Attack!"
The Nine Extremes Corpse Emperor burst forth in an instant, throwing a punch directly at the Seven Insect Demon Monarch.
"This corpse demon is your reliance? Watch me break it!"
The Seven Insect Demon Monarch sneered, shook his cape, and numerous fat, dark as ink, worms the size of two fingers flew out, forming a cloud of insects that rushed toward the Nine Extremes Corpse Emperor.
These obese magic worms, raised with much effort by the Seven Insect Demon Monarch, were the Abyssal Corpse-Eating Magic Worms, evolved after consuming numerous strange corpses, and were inherently capable of restraining all kinds of corpse demons, growing and evolving by devouring corpse energy.
The Nine Extremes Corpse Emperor's punch landed on the swarm of worms, shattering a dozen Abyssal Corpse-Eating Magic Worms with the terrifying power of a fourth-order mid-grade, corpse energy cascading down toward the remaining magic worms.
The Abyssal Corpse-Eating Magic Worms opened their maws and inhaled, drawing all the corpse energy erupted by the Nine Extremes Corpse Emperor into themselves, growing even larger.
Ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivators wouldn't dare to face the Nine Extremes Corpse Emperor's released corpse energy head-on. Once contaminated by it, their vitality would be drained, requiring a great amount of mana to cleanse.
However, these Abyssal Corpse-Eating Magic Worms were different, capable of devouring large amounts of corpse energy, with every inch of their skin absorbing the power of the corpse energy to become stronger.
While some Abyssal Corpse-Eating Magic Worms were burst by the force of the corpse energy, even more of them clung directly onto the Nine Extremes Corpse Emperor and began to gnaw voraciously.
In this world, there is an antidote for every poison. The Nine Extremes Corpse Emperor's flesh could withstand magical treasure attacks, even resisting ordinary low-grade spiritual treasures to some extent, but it struggled to defend against the gnawing of the Abyssal Corpse-Eating Magic Worms.
"Not good!"
Zhao Yu's eyes flashed a hint of cold light, as he directly conjured his lifebound magic treasure, the Mountain Seal.
As the Mountain Seal flew out, it burst forth with a pale yellow spiritual light, sweeping waves of Earth Magnetism Mystical Light towards the Nine Extremes Corpse Emperor.
The Black Abyss Corpse-Eating Demon Insects that had pounced on the Nine Extremes Corpse Emperor were immediately enveloped in a terrifyingly heavy gravity, falling off its body one by one and revealing the pit-riddled corpse of the emperor beneath.
"A Spiritual Treasure!"
Upon seeing the Mountain Seal, the face of the Seven Insect Demon Lord changed drastically, but then he laughed out loud, "So it's the Mountain Seal! Watch me break your treasure!"
The Seven Insect Demon Lord shook his cloak, and out flew a swarm of earth-colored demon insects with a pair of yellow wings and a yellow carapace covering their bodies, heading straight for Zhao Yu's Mountain Seal.
The Gnawing Mountain Bug was a peculiar insect cultivated by the Seven Insect Demon Lord, specializing in breaking down all kinds of Earth Attribute magical treasures.
The Earth Magnetism Mystical Light that shot out of the Mountain Seal fell onto the Gnawing Mountain Bugs, causing them to manifest an earthly yellow glow that resisted the corrosion of the mystical light.
"I have more than just the Mountain Seal as a magical treasure, and more than one Divine Skill!"
A hint of cold light passed through Zhao Yu's eyes. With a spread of his five fingers, he cast the Heavenly Departing True Fire Divine Power, morphing a crimson flame into a fire dragon that lunged towards the swarm of Gnawing Mountain Bugs.
Crackle and pop!
Upon contact with the fire dragon formed by the Heavenly Departing True Fire, the swarm of Gnawing Mountain Bugs was immediately ignited, turning into massive fireballs that fell from the sky to the ground. Experience tales with freewebnovel
"Flame Divine Power! Damn it!!"
When the Seven Insect Demon Lord saw the Heavenly Departing True Fire Divine Power coming his way, his face turned pale, and he quickly conjured a deep blue spear magical treasure.
This deep blue spear magical treasure caused the moisture in the air to swirl around it, forming a Water Dragon that charged at the fire dragon created by the Heavenly Departing True Fire.
Hissss!
The two dragons collided, and the Water Dragon was instantly consumed by the flames, turning into a large volume of mist that dissipated into thin air.
Water-related magical treasures and Divine Skills naturally counteract Fire Attribute magical treasures and Divine Powers, but Zhao Yu's Heavenly Departing True Fire Divine Power was far more powerful than ordinary fire Divine Skills, leaving the treasure conjured by the Seven Insect Demon Lord utterly overwhelmed.
The reduced fire dragon continued its relentless charge towards the Seven Insect Demon Lord.
With gritted teeth, the Seven Insect Demon Lord retreated explosively, shaking his cloak as a large number of Starlight Magic Worms shrouded in celestial light flew out.
The resonating light from countless Starlight Magic Worms amalgamated into a Barrier of Stars in front of him.
The fire dragon, transformed from the Heavenly Departing True Fire, immediately engulfed the Barrier of Stars, setting it ablaze.
Many of the precious Starlight Magic Worms were also set alight, turning into balls of fire.
However, the Barrier of Stars ultimately held against the Heavenly Departing True Fire Divine Power for a moment, granting the Seven Insect Demon Lord a thin chance to escape.
"Damn it, who is that guy to possess such powerful Spiritual Treasures and Divine Skills!!"
The Seven Insect Demon Lord transformed into a pitch-black Escape Light and flew towards the palace exit, his heart brimming with rage.
The Starlight Magic Worms, Gnawing Mountain Bugs, and Black Abyss Corpse-Eating Demon Insects were all Spirit Insects that he had cultivated at an immense resource cost. With their deaths, he would have to spend another hundred years to cultivate these magic worms anew.
All of a sudden, vast expanses of Ghost Fog rose from the entrance of the palace, sweeping towards the Seven Insect Demon Lord. Within that vast Ghost Fog, the White Ghost Emperor appeared, his mouth agape, his pupils revealing dark Curse Seals as he fixed his gaze on the Seven Insect Demon Lord.
