Cultivation starts from devouring the Dao fruits

A pitch-dark ghostly wind blew by, and the White Ghost Emperor appeared above Mu Jiao King like a phantom. With a ferocious smile, he threw a punch right into the head of Mu Jiao King.

The ghost horn on the right fist of the White Ghost Emperor pierced through Mu Jiao King's head, shattering his skull on impact, and the terrifying ghostly energy blasted into Mu Jiao King's body, extinguishing his vitality completely.

Zhao Yu smiled and said, "Wu Chen, I'll leave those demons outside to the three of you!"

"Haha! Leng Yun, I told you! Old Zhao here is quite shrewd, he naturally has a backup plan. Leave the demons outside to the three of us!"

No Dust Taoist laughed heartily and transformed into an escape light that flew toward those demons.

Leng Yun True Monarch and Qin Nan Fairy, both Nascent Soul cultivators, also promptly followed No Dust Taoist, beginning to hunt down the invading demons and beasts.

The fourteen Fourth-Order Great Demons of Transformation, who had intruded into the ruins of the Huangdi Sect, felt a chill rise in their hearts at the sight of Mu Jiao King's death. They frantically invoked their mana, offering up magical treasures and furiously bombarding the surrounding barriers.

"It's no use! Oh, and you can despair a little more!"

Zhao Yu smiled faintly and directly brought out the Spiritual Treasure Mountain Seal.

The Spiritual Treasure Mountain Seal flew up into mid-air, expanding against the wind and transforming into a size of ten feet. Waves of earthy yellow Earth Magnetism Mystical Light swept across the separating barriers, significantly enhancing their strength once more.

Golden Spirit True Monarch's vision blurred, and in an instant, he appeared in the area where the Sea Worm King was located.

Accompanying Golden Spirit True Monarch were two other Nascent Soul cultivators, Kumu True Monarch and Luo Sheng True Monarch.

Golden Spirit True Monarch once again summoned the Golden Spirit Demon-Slaying Sword Formation, and countless sharp sword threads slashed towards the Sea Worm King.

Kumu True Monarch and Luo Sheng True Monarch, also Nascent Soul cultivators, summoned their magical treasures, attacking the Sea Worm King.

The Sea Worm King screamed and revealed its true form, morphing into a pitch-black sea demon bug with a black carapace covering its body, a hundred pairs of bug legs, and seven eyes.

The seven eyes of the Sea Worm King suddenly opened wide, and its demonic gaze swept over the three Nascent Soul cultivators.

That was the innate divine ability of the Sea Worm King, the Seven Deadly King Poison Demonic Gaze. The more desperate the Sea Worm King fought, the more powerful this divine skill became. If it burned its life essence, it could even poison a cultivator at the Late Nascent Soul Stage.

A chill arose in the hearts of the three Nascent Soul cultivators facing the Sea Worm King, and they all summoned their magical treasure powers for defense.

The seven demonic gazes brushed against the Spiritual Shield summoned by Golden Spirit True Monarch. Most of the divine light was blocked by the shield, but a thread of spiritual light penetrated the shield and landed on Golden Spirit True Monarch's body, causing black qi to emerge on his face and a slight pain in his body as he was afflicted with the strange insect poison.

The sword threads from the Golden Spirit Demon-Slaying Sword Formation cut the Sea Worm King into pieces as they landed on its body.

The other two Nascent Soul cultivators were also poisoned by the Sea Worm King, their complexions turning rather ugly.

Golden Spirit True Monarch gritted his teeth and said, "My lord! We have been poisoned by the insect, please allow us some time to cleanse the toxin!"

The Sea Worm King's poison was extremely weird; if the three Nascent Soul cultivators took the Detoxifying Spirit Pill and circulated their powers to dispel the poison now, they could quickly eliminate the toxins. However, if they fought fiercely at this juncture, it might damage the essence of all three.

"Here is a Superior Grade Detoxifying Pill! I'll give you a quarter of an hour to expel the poison!"

Zhao Yu waved his hand and three Superior Grade Detoxifying Pills fell into the hands of Golden Spirit True Monarch and the others.

The three Superior Grade Detoxifying Spirit Pills could purge various types of Spirit Poison, but were ineffective against the Corpse Poison of the Nine Extremes Corpse Emperor.

To purge the Corpse Poison of the Nine Extremes Corpse Emperor, one either needed to possess a Cultivation Level at the Divinity Transformation stage and be proficient in poison-dispelling powers or must find a specific antidote.

"Many thanks, my lord!"

Only then did the three Nascent Soul Cultivators of the Golden Spirit breathe a sigh of relief, stepped aside, and swallowed the pills to purge the bizarre insect poison.

A jet-black Ghost Fog whipped up in the area where the Green Snake King was, with swathes of ghostly mist rising and enveloping the region where the Green Snake King resided.

The Green Snake King's face changed drastically; he immediately brought out a magical treasure, the Fire Origin Pearl, and from it, vast flames spurted out, incinerating the Ghost Fog completely.

In that instant, the White Ghost Emperor appeared above the Green Snake King's head, a vicious smile spread across his face, and with a single punch, he smashed into the Green Snake King's forehead. The pitch-black Ghost Horn penetrated the Green Snake King's skull, directly shattering his head.

"A Fourth-Order Superior Evil Ghost!!"

The hearts of the remaining twelve Fourth-Order Great Demons of Transformation sank.

A Fourth-Order Evil Ghost was already terrifyingly strong, and a Fourth-Order Superior Evil Ghost was sufficient to rival monstrous creatures like the Black Jiao Emperor and human Nascent Soul Great Cultivators.

If it were elsewhere, the twelve Fourth-Order Great Demons of Transformation could join forces and wouldn't fear a Fourth-Order Superior Evil Ghost like the White Ghost Emperor.

But now they were separated into twelve spaces by the Mountainous Profound Light Great Array, and the strongest among them, the Black Jiao Emperor, was held back by the Nine Extremes Corpse Emperor and the Chi Emperor, two Fourth-Order Intermediate monsters. Not many of the Fourth-Order Great Demons were confident in facing the White Ghost Emperor one-on-one.

A flash of earthy-yellow light, and the White Ghost Emperor was brought by Zhao Yu, who controlled the array, right in front of the Palace Master of the Spirit Bead Palace, the Spirit Bead Queen.

The Spirit Bead Queen was the leader of the clam demons and was also a gorgeous beauty with enchanting curves, snow-white skin, bright eyes, white teeth, and a stunningly beautiful face that could cause the downfall of a nation.

As soon as the White Ghost Emperor appeared, he let out a vicious smile and opened his mouth to spray a jet of pitch-black ghostly energy, sweeping directly toward the Spirit Bead Queen.

The Spirit Bead Queen bit her silver teeth, waved her hand, and directly brought out her Life-Linked Spiritual Bead.

Streams of brilliant and pure light burst from the Life-Linked Spiritual Bead of the Spirit Bead Queen, cleansing swathes of the ghostly energy.

At that moment, a flash of green sword light shone, and the Qingling Divine Sword flew directly into this void, fiercely stabbing towards the Spirit Bead Queen.

The Life-Linked Spiritual Bead of the Spirit Bead Queen flew out at once and collided fiercely with the Qingling Divine Sword, blocking it.

Seizing the opportunity, the White Ghost Emperor appeared behind the Spirit Bead Queen like a specter, twisted her neck with a single claw, and crushed the Spirit Bead Queen's skull with a stomp of his foot.

Upon her death, the Spirit Bead Queen reverted to her original form, transforming into a headless clam demon a hundred zhang long.

A flash of earthy-yellow light, and the White Ghost Emperor appeared in the area where the Sea Wolf King was.

"Die!!"

The Sea Wolf King revealed his shape at once, turning into a hundred-zhang-long beast with a wolf's head, a body covered in a layer of white scale armor, a belly adorned with fins, wolf-like limbs, and a fish's tail on the back, abruptly rising up and striking a claw at the White Ghost Emperor.

The White Ghost Emperor cracked open his mouth, grinning viciously at the Sea Wolf King like a monster, surrounded by swirling black vapor, with strange Curse Seals appearing in his pupils.

Bang!

The Sea Wolf King's blow struck the body of the White Ghost Emperor, directly shattering him into countless black fragments that scattered in all directions.
