Its maw gaped open, sharp fangs dripping with viscous fluid.
"Roar!"
The corporeal corpse roared, its voice shaking the heavens and causing the entire cave to tremble.
"Is this... an Immortal Corpse?"
"Legend has it, the existence of a Corpse Emperor among the corporeal corpse race, who has attained enlightenment and become an immortal!"
Diao Chan's delicate body trembled, her pretty face etched with surprise.
Just how terrifying was an Immortal Corpse?
Legend had it that a Corpse Emperor was an Immortal Corpse that had cultivated successfully, capable of contending with powerful beings at the Divine Realm.
Although its combat power still fell short of true gods!
However, its lifespan was incredibly long. After all, they were inanimate objects, able to exist as long as there were places with malevolent or Yin energy.
Furthermore, due to their innate corpse poison, their combat strength far surpassed cultivators of the same rank.
"Husband, we must hurry. I have a feeling this Immortal Corpse is not simple," Diao Chan said anxiously, pulling Zhou Yan.
She could sense that the Immortal Corpse's strength was unfathomable.
Perhaps, not much different from an immortal!
"Escape? Why escape!"
"It's rare to find the ultimate treasure of the Demonic Realm, how can we just give up!"
Zhou Yan snorted, his eyes fixed on the colossal, obsidian demonic sword, burning with fervor and greed.
"Rumble..."
Simultaneously, the True Qi within him surged madly, forming a set of obsidian armor that enveloped his entire body, protecting him.
He clenched his fists, his eyes gleaming with sharp light, a murderous intent fully revealed.
Boom!
The next moment, Zhou Yan leaped up, lunging towards the obsidian demonic sword.
"Boom!"
He extended his palms and pressed them against the demonic sword, attempting to pull it out.
"Whizzing..."
However, as soon as he touched the demonic sword, a dazzling sword light erupted from its body, piercing the void and slashing towards him.
The sword intent was exceptionally sharp, tearing through the void.
This sword intent was far more terrifying than the combined divine ability attacks of Ye Xun, Diao Chan, and the others. It seemed to transcend time and space, appearing before Zhou Yan in an instant and severing his arm!
Zhou Yan stumbled back a few steps, his form unsteady, utterly surprised. This thing was indeed not simple.
"What domineering power!"
Zhou Yan's heart grew cold, and he couldn't help but shudder.
At this moment, he finally understood that with his current strength, it would be difficult to subdue it!
Even if the seal were broken, it would be hard to take this thing.
If not for his quick reflexes, he would have been severely injured already.
Zhou Yan examined the sword again. This demonic sword was extraordinary, likely not something an ordinary demon god could possess.
This demonic sword was too terrifying!
At this moment, the demonic sword vibrated slightly and then vanished abruptly.
Zhou Yan's heart leaped.
"Bad!"
Zhou Yan's expression darkened, knowing that the demonic sword had sensed his covetous gaze.
"Rumble!"
Suddenly, the demonic sword hummed, and streams of black mist churned, rapidly coalescing into a demonic cloud that obscured the sky and all light, blanketing an area of a hundred meters.
As the demonic cloud billowed, terrifying demonic energy spewed forth, transforming into black dragons that roared through the sky, slaughtering towards everyone.
"Not good!"
Ye Xun's face changed drastically, and he cried out in panic.
"Rumble!"
The black dragons rampaged, instantly swallowing him and engulfing his figure in a flash, completely annihilating him within the embrace of the black chains, leaving him no room to struggle.
Diao Chan's situation was slightly better. She held a golden, radiant long sword in her hand and swung it out like a dragon emerging from the sea, unleashing torrents of terrifying energy towards the black chains.
Clang clang clang!
The chains shattered and fell, making a ding-dong sound.
This was a true divine weapon!
However, at this moment, a streak of sword light flashed, instantly severing the golden long sword and forcing Diao Chan back a few steps.
"Damn it!"
Diao Chan gritted her teeth, her pretty face contorted with indignation. "That item must belong to my husband!"
"No one can take it away!"
Diao Chan's beautiful eyes held a resolute gaze.
She stepped on lotus-like movements, her slender hand reaching out, and pulled a crystal-clear bead from her storage ring. It emanated a soft, gentle radiance that enveloped her.
Instantly, her surroundings were bathed in a soft glow, and a peculiar fragrance diffused, intoxicating and refreshing. It even made her bones feel lighter.
"Hmm?"
Seeing the bead in Diao Chan's hand, Zhou Yan's eyes lit up.
"What is this?" he asked.
"This is the 'Pure World Glazed Bead' I obtained earlier. It's a divine artifact, extremely rare. I thought I wouldn't need it, but now it comes in handy!" Diao Chan said. "With this bead's protection, I am immune to corpse poison!"
"So that's how it is!"
Zhou Yan suddenly understood, and then his gaze returned to the demonic sword.
This colossal sword was too peculiar. He vaguely felt that it contained some kind of secret.
"Since that's the case, let's test the power of this colossal sword!"
Zhou Yan willed it, and surging primal energy poured into the colossal sword, activating its seal and gradually releasing the outermost restrictions on the demonic sword.
"Whizzing..."
The colossal sword vibrated, emitting endless brilliance, and its sword intent soared to the heavens.
Zhou Yan's heart pounded violently.
This demonic sword seemed to harbor immense resentment. Now, as it awakened, its sword cry resounded through the heavens!
"Boom!"
The next moment, the demonic sword trembled and suddenly flew up, hovering beside Zhou Yan, emitting myriad demonic lights that illuminated all directions!
Streams of powerful fluctuations radiated outwards.
This sword seemed to have come alive!
Zhou Yan extended his palm, and a vast and mighty True Qi flowed into the demonic sword.
"Buzz!"
The demonic sword glowed and erupted fiercely, unleashing a destructive aura.
A brilliant sword light tore through the void, ripped through the air, and descended towards the demonic soul beast.
*Squelch!*
A stream of scarlet blood splattered out, landing on Zhou Yan.
Zhou Yan's body stiffened. He lowered his head and saw a tiny crack on his chest, with a trace of blood seeping out.
This sword had merely pierced his clothing but had not penetrated his flesh.
Truly a divine weapon!
Even a single iron chain was comparable to a divine weapon!
If this demonic sword had pierced his body, even with his robust physique, he would likely be injured!
"Whoosh!"
The next moment, the demonic sword escaped Zhou Yan's control, whistling through the void, and flew towards the demonic soul beast again.
"Roar..."
The demonic soul beast roared, opening its mouth and spewing a stream of black fire, attempting to melt the demonic sword.
*Crack!*
A layer of ice-blue light appeared on the surface of the demonic sword, actually freezing the stream of Netherworld Demonic Flame.
Then, the demonic sword slammed into it, forcefully shattering the Netherworld Demonic Flame and continuing its attack on the demonic soul beast.
"Swish!"
The demonic sword moved too fast. In the blink of an eye, it was before the demonic soul beast.
With a "bang," the demonic sword struck the demonic soul beast's head, directly creating a gap and severing its entire head from its neck!
One sword killed the enemy!
"How is this possible?!"
Ye Xun and Diao Chan's eyes widened in disbelief and horror.
