  “Brother Gu Eyes, thank you,” said King Thousand Wood.

  “The sect ordered me to protect you well.” At that moment, King Gu Eyes’s head had become ugly and huge. Countless protruding toad heads appeared, but in the blink of an eye, he returned to his normal human appearance.

  His body had long been modified. He was a powerful Worm King.

  Before the demons invaded Two World Island, Two World Island had been suppressed by Black Sand Grotto-Heaven for a long time. This caused many Godfiends in Two World Island to have distorted mental states. In order to become stronger, they had gathered many evil formulas. The Worm King transformation was very evil and cruel, but after succeeding, one’s combat strength would soar tremendously. In contrast to their past behavior, the Godfiends from Two World Island had calmed down over the past 800 years.

  “Humph.” King Transcendence’s figure had already entered the shadow world. Everyone present had a keen perception of the void. They could vaguely sense two living beings in the shadow world.

  One was King Transcendence, and the other was Demon Monarch Coldmoon.

  “Humans can also modify themselves into a phantom lifeform.” Coldmoon looked at King Kong in surprise.

  “Let’s see who’s more powerful?” King Transcendence sneered as he looked at his opponent and instantly charged at her. The two fought in the shadow world. Occasionally, they would split out shadows to sneak an attack. The terrifying aspect of phantom lifeforms was that they could travel through the shadow world and use their shadow clones to attack their enemy. Even if the shadow clone was destroyed, it didn’t result in any damage to the main body at all. However, as one’s cultivation level increased, experts could gradually enter the shadow world as well.

  The poisonous black water blotted out the sky as it attempted to drown the human Godfiends. However, it was burned by the fire domain, causing a colorful, poisonous gas to rise from the periphery of the fire domain constantly. The golden flames were the poison’s bane.

  “My poison is being restrained. I can’t penetrate the fire domain at all,” said Patriarch Poison Dragon via voice transmission. “I’ll send my black water clone to charge in.”

  Boom!

  In the churning black water, black dragons took form. Each black dragon had terrifying might as they charged into the fire domain.

  Although the fire domain burned them, the condensed black dragons could withstand it completely, not evaporating at all.

  “With the Water Essence Bead, I’m much stronger in direct combat.” Patriarch Poison Dragon was rather confident of his strength. Previously, he had purely relied on his undying body and poison to deal with his enemies. His offensive means weren’t strong, but after being nurtured by the three Imperial Lords and being bestowed a Tribulation treasure that was extremely suitable for him—Water Essence Bead-his combat prowess had transformed.

  Break!

  The 13 sword formation moved.

  The sword beams tore through the black dragons with terrifying might!

  “The Thirteen Swordbanes are too powerful.” Patriarch Poison Dragon’s expression changed slightly. He could maintain the strength of nine black dragons, but there were Thirteen Swordbanes—these Swordbanes truly restrained the black water dragons.

  “Well done.” A sharp glint flashed through Holy Lady Strings’s eyes.

  Without the sword array’s obstruction, Holy Lady Strings could make her move.

  The Forest World array formation still obstructed the Nine Lives Cocoon threads, but at that moment, the threads rapidly gathered and formed a white snake.

  Boom!

  After the numerous threads gathered, the giant white snake revealed tremendous might. It easily thrashed through the Forest World array formation and shot straight at King Thousand Wood. The demon monarchs had to kill King Thousand Wood—who had a sixth-level Essence Soul. The demons were most afraid of King True Martial and King Thousand Wood.

  “Get lost.” A huge cauldron suddenly appeared in King Molten’s hand, one that was several times larger than himself. Golden flames constantly surged out from the cauldron.

  Boom!

  King Molten held the cauldron in his hand as his strike pierced through the void several kilometers away, striking the white snake.

  The white snake was the amalgamation of more than half of the Tribulation treasure’sNine Lives Cocoon-threads. Holy Lady Strings put all her strength into that attack.

  It was said that the Fire Refinement Star Cauldron was refined from an outer realm planet. It was most suitable for ‘smashing’ opponents in head-on battles. However, King Molten had limited strength. He could only unleash a portion of the Tribulation treasure’s power. Even so, the strike was still extremely terrifying

  Boom!

  Due to the smash, the white snake exploded. The numerous threads scattered in all directions as they were blasted out of the fire domain by the violent flames.

  “You only have one cauldron. Let’s see how many spots you can block.” Holy Lady Strings’s charming face contorted slightly. Numerous Nine Lives Cocoon threads gathered once again. This time, they formed three smaller white snakes.

  Chapter 445 - Archean Mountain Godfiends Are Here!

  “King Northcleanse, help King Molten. Leave these black dragon clones to me,” said King Thousand Wood via voice transmission.

  “Alright.” King Northcleanse immediately directed the 13 divine swords to attack one of the white snakes with a single thought. Boom! Boom! Boom!

  The formation consisting of the 13 swords completely blocked the white snake’s charge.

  As for King Molten, he held an enormous cauldron in his hand. With a single strike, he tore through kilometers of the void and destroyed a white snake. With another strike, he defeated another white snake. The golden flames that kept spewing out of the cauldron sent the white snake flying into the distance. King Molten could still fend off two white snakes at the same time.

  The black dragons roared. However, under the golden fire domain’s suppression, the nine black dragon clones’ strength was greatly reduced. They were unable to break through the dense Forest World array formation’s obstruction.

  “Damn it.” Seeing this, Holy Lady Strings frowned slightly.

  The Nine Lives Cocoon that she chose was stronger when it came to preserving her life, but it had weaker offensive strength. She only had two reasons for choosing this Tribulation treasure. Firstly, she was being cautious. Secondly, although the Tribulation treasure’s offensive power was weaker, it was still a boon for her overall strength.

  With the Nine Lives Cocoon, her combat prowess was boosted to the peak of the Creation realm. With such strength, she believed that it was enough to deal with the human Godfiends in the World Gap.

  However, who would have thought that she would encounter King Molten? King Molten was the strongest Black Sand Grotto Lord Regis Godfiend in the past 1,000 years. After cultivating in the World Gap for many years, he had improved from the middle stages of the Grotto-Heaven realm to the late stages of the Grotto-Heaven realm. Although he didn’t create his own ultimate technique like Holy Lady Strings, he was capable of dealing with more than half of Holy Lady Strings’s strength alone after obtaining the Fire Refinement Star Cauldron. Now that he was cooperating with his companions, he could put up a complete defence against her attacks.

  Swish! Swish!

  Demon Monarch Coldmoon and King Transcendence fought in the shadow world.

  Demon Monarch Coldmoon had a slightly lower technique realm than King Transcendence. However, she had a Tribulation treasure. As for King Transcendence, his technique realm was higher and more profound than hers. Thus, the battle between the two was naturally intense. He delivered attacks to his opponent again and again. However, both parties alternated between their true bodies and shadow clones! After piercing his sword into his opponent’s body each time, he realized that the true body had already become a shadow.

  “Go.” As Demon Monarch Cold
moon killed the shadow clones, she used an Essence Soul mystic technique to attack King Transcendence. She had a sixth-level Essence Soul. Even if she cultivated ordinary Essence Soul mystic techniques, they were certainly strong enough. Her Essence Soul fluctuations surged towards King Transcendence like waves.

  “Magic Awl.” King Transcendence’s Essence Soul domain sensed the terrifying waves rushing towards him. With a thought, his Magic Awl-which was refined from 30% of his Essence Soul’s Origins-flew towards the fluctuations. The sharp Magic Awl moved against the waves, greatly dispersing its might.

  He didn’t dare use his Magic Awl to attack a sixth-level Essence Soul. However, the Magic Awl could be used to crack an enemy’s Essence Soul mystic technique.

  Whoosh.

  King Transcendence returned to the outside world and came to King Molten’s side. He didn’t look too good. “That Demon Monarch Coldmoon has a Tribulation treasure. I can’t kill it.”

  “Holy Lady Strings is also very powerful. We’re completely trapped inside her domain—which is formed from her countless spider threads.” King Molten held the cauldron and had an extremely solemn expression on his face.

  The golden fire domain only spanned five kilometers wide. Only with the golden fire domain resisting the attacks, weakening them, could King Molten and King Northclean resist the Nine Lives Cocoon threads.

  “We won’t be able to escape them with the threads in the way,” said King Gu Eyes. He didn’t attempt to release his poisonous worms because he knew that his poisonous worms couldn’t withstand the threads’ attacks.

  Just Holy Lady Strings alone was enough to make them feel tremendous pressure. “It’s very cautious. It doesn’t dare let me come within 25 kilometers,” said King Thousand Wood via voice transmission. “If I am within 25 kilometers of it, I can attack it with my Magic Awl.”

  “Let’s wait,” said King Molten calmly. “We won’t be able to escape, but they also won’t be able to do anything to us. When Archean Mountain Godfiends arrive, we will be able to counterattack.”

  Meng Chuan-on the Bloodblade Disc-was indeed rushing over with King True Martial, King Calm Sea, Peng Mu, and Yun Jianhai in tow. Although he was carrying four Regis Godfiends, he could move 50 kilometers in a second.

  “King Molten has the Fire Refinement Star Cauldron. Even if they are in a dire situation, they can still stay alive if they hide inside it,” said King True Martial. The two teams had powerful life-preservation means. The Black Sand Grotto-Heaven and Two World Island team was strong enough to deal with all kinds of dangerous situations as long as King Molten and King Thousand Wood cooperated. As for the Archean Mountain team… when Meng Chuan and King True Martial worked together, they could also deal with all kinds of dangerous situations.

  “It’s just ahead,” said Meng Chuan.

  Just as he finished speaking, they saw the raging battle.

  In the distance, one could see a dazzling region filled with golden flames. Countless threadswhich covered a 50-kilometer areasurrounded the flame domain. Black poison dragons frantically attacked the golden flames.

  In the region of fire, King Molten and the other Godfiends could be seen resisting with all their might.

  “The Archean Mountain Godfiends are here!” Upon seeing this, King Molten and company couldn’t help but be overjoyed.

  “They’re all here?” When Holy Lady Strings saw the Archean Mountain Godfiends from afar, her expression changed slightly.

  “Be careful. I’ll try my best to stall them until Peacock and the others arrive,” said Holy Lady Strings via voice transmission. “When that happens, we’ll have a chance of killing them if we join forces with Peacock and the others.”

  “Alright.” Patriarch Poison Dragon was very confident. Demon Monarch Coldmoon nodded as well.

  Boom!

  In the distance, Meng Chuan led King True Martial and company over. A huge Yin-Yang disc—covering a five-kilometer radius around King True Martial—formed around their team. At the center of the Yin-Yang disc, blurry, gray energy gathered. At the edge of the Yin-Yang disc, a layer of the gray energy condensed. This gray energy broke through the Nine Lives Cocoon threads’ obstruction.

  “What a powerful domain. My Nine Lives Cocoon threads are unable to penetrate it.” Holy Lady Strings’s expression changed slightly. After tearing through the Nine Lives Cocoon threads, the Archean Mountain Godfiend team finally rendezvoused with King Molten and the rest.

  “Hahaha. Everybody from Archean Mountain, thank you!” King Molten, King Gu Eyes, and the others laughed loudly.

  “Let’s join forces and kill them,” said King True Martial. “Junior Brother Meng, catch up to Holy Lady Strings.” “Bring me within 25 kilometers of it,” said King Thousand Wood. “Leave it to me.” Meng Chuan stepped on the Bloodblade Disc and brought the nine Godfiends with him as they traveled at full speed. The True Martial domain-the Yin-Yang disc-protected them as they forcefully tore through the void spiderweb domain.

  Bang!!!

  The numerous Nine Lives Cocoon threads were unable to stop the group from advancing towards the demon monarchs. Holy Lady Strings could only force the threads to form three white snakes that charged into the True Martial domain.

  Boom!

  King Molten swung the cauldron in his hand. With a single strike, he tore through a few kilometers and shattered a white snake.

  Boom!

  King Northcleanse’s 13 sword formation gathered and blasted apart a white snake. Under the suppression of the True Martial domain, the white snakes’ strength had been greatly reduced compared to earlier on.

  Boom!

  King Calm Sea suddenly slashed out with his ice-cold sword. His strike affected the flow of time, causing the void to distort. The terrifyingly fast strike caused the last white snake to dissipate.

  King Calm Sea’s eyes were filled with excitement. After becoming an ice lifeform, he had cultivated in the World Gap for more than ten years. He had long yearned for battle.

  King True Martial, Peng Mu, Meng Chuan, and company didn’t even get the opportunity to attack.This scene caused Holy Lady Strings’s expression to change slightly. She sent a voice transmission, “There are too many Godfiends. Meng Chuan is too fast. Even if we want to escape, we won’t be able to. The best way we can survive is to keep our distance. Don’t let them come within 25 kilometers of us, but don’t let them escape either. Keep them here until Peacock arrives.”

  “How are we going to hold them here?” Patriarch Poison Dragon was somewhat anxious. He watched as the Godfiends-who were protected by the Yin-Yang disc-quickly closed in. All he could do was constantly send black dragon clones to block them. “No matter how much we try to hold them back, they are still too fast.”

  “It is true that they’re too fast.” Holy Lady Strings became even more solemn. “However, we must try our best to stall for time.”

  Nine Lives Cocoon threads and Patriarch Poison Dragon constantly obstructed them, causing King Molten and company to have to fight back frequently. This also interfered with Meng Chuan’s flight. However, Meng Chuan’s speed was too astonishing. Even under such a situation, the team’s average speed of approach was still 15 to 20 kilometers per second.

  The distance between them rapidly shortened.

  30 kilometers, 25 kilometers, 20 kilometers…

  “Don’t be in a hurry to attack. Wait until we are within five kilometers of them,” said King True Martial via voice transmission.

  King Molten and King Thousand Wood held back and waited.

  Chapter 446 - Killing

  The human Godfiends were too fast, so the demons couldn’t escape at all. They could only watch as the distance between them shortened.

  15 kilometers, 10 kilometers, 5 kilometers…

  “Attack.” King True Martial suddenly sent a voice transmission.

  Boom!

  All the Godfiends instantly attacked at the same time, unleashing pandemonium upon the battlefield. The fastest attack was
none other than King Thousand Wood’s Magic Awl.

  King Thousand Wood’s Essence Soul was at the sixth-level. He had used 30 percent of his Essence Soul’s Origins to refine his Magic Awl. It was a trump card for the human Godfiends.

  There were many demon monarchs, but they had only sent a few demon monarchs because they were afraid of a sixth-level Essence Soul’s Magic Awl. After all, those with weaker Essence Souls would be sending themselves to their deaths if they were to come within 25 kilometers of King Thousand Wood.

  Swoosh!

  The black Magic Awl was invisible to the naked eye; it could only be clearly seen with one’s Essence Soul domain. The Magic Awl was extremely fast, and in an instant, it had already arrived in front of Holy Lady Strings. Although she had long prepared herself for this, she still felt a little flustered when facing this terrifying Magic Awl.

  Boom!

  Holy Lady Strings’s expression turned ferocious. She opened her mouth as though she was crying out in pain, but no sound came out of it. She clutched her head in pain. The midair Nine Lives Cocoon threads became sluggish as Holy Lady Strings slowly lost control over them.

  Out of the Tribulation treasures that the three Imperial Lords had allowed her to choose from, she had chosen the Nine Lives Cocoon-which protected her Essence Soul the most. It could drastically weaken a Magic Awl’s strength. However, Holy Lady Strings still found the Nine Lives Cocoon’s protection insufficient. This was because her Essence Soul was still torn apart by the Magic Awl. It was too painful, and she felt despair.

  She even felt like she was about to die.

  Boom! Boom! Boom!

  A terrifying attack descended. The massive Fire Refinement Star Cauldron smashed down, and King True Martial’s gray fist projection-which could crush everything-appeared. However, all the attacks landed on a white cocoon. A white cocoon had completely enveloped Holy Lady Strings. This was the Nine Lives Cocoon itself! In its cocoon form, it completely protected one’s body. It was said to be virtually indestructible. Furthermore, it provided one with a very strong Essence Soul defense. Out of the three Tribulation treasures that she could’ve chosen from, the Nine Lives Cocoon was the strongest when it came to protecting one’s body and Essence Soul.
