Everlasting Immortal Firmament

Book 07 Chapter 103: The Powerful Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon

“Will they do?” Gu Hai asked.

“They will. That’s sufficient!” Gu Han nodded.

“That’s good,” Gu Hai said.

As Gu Hai spoke, he moved his hands. The space around Gu Han trembled, and the chains connected to his scapula rattled as if they would come off.

“Father, don’t! Jiang Gautama and the Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon placed these chains on me, afraid that something would happen to me. They will immediately know if you forcibly remove them,” Gu Han said worriedly.

“Let’s not remove them for now, then. I’ll dig out this space,” Gu Hai said.

Boom!

A hole ripped open in space. The other end of the two chains could now be moved. However, the end connected to Gu Han’s scapula did not come undone.

“Many thanks, Father. However, these chains cannot leave the Corpse Mound World,” Gu Han explained.

“We don’t have to leave the Corpse Mound World. They are over there. According to Bodhisattva Lian Sheng, it’s called the Three-Layered Past Conception. Let’s go!” Gu Hai waved his hand to lift the rest, then flew towards the Three-Layered Past Conception region with Gu Han and Qin Zibai.

The group quickly approached. Aside from the resentful spirits that had just flown over, they did not see anyone else.

Gu Hai frowned slightly and was about to drive the Go Dao ritual array.

“Father, there’s no need to destroy the Three-Layered Past Conception region. This child can see,” Gu Han said.

After that, Gu Han’s pupils suddenly turned golden.

“Oh?” Gu Hai said.

“There are three regions. However, one region is already empty.” Gu Han’s expression changed. “Oh no, the Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon is in one of the other regions. That’s the Mosquito Daoist? Kong Xuan? They are in danger!”

At the side, Qin Zibai felt worried. “What should we do?”

“Bodhisattva Lian Sheng and the Dried Lamp Buddha are fighting? No, Master Lian Sheng is about to lose!” Gu Han’s expression changed again.

“Can you open an entrance?” Gu Hai looked at Gu Han.

“Yes. Father, you go save the Mosquito Daoist and Kong Xuan. I’ll save Master!” Gu Han said.

“However, you currently…,” Gu Hai said worriedly.

“Father, don’t worry. I have the golden body to protect me; I will be fine. Furthermore, this is part of the Three Lives Buddhist Conception. This child can save Master Lian Sheng,” Gu Han countered.

“Qin Zibai, follow Gu Han and obey his commands,” Gu Hai instructed.

“Yes, Your Reverence!” Qin Zibai answered.

Gu Han did not object, nodding.

Then Gu Han pressed his palms together and chanted.

Buzz!

Two golden swastikas appeared from his palms.

Bang!

The golden swastikas smashed into space, and space seemed to melt, creating two entrances. The other end of one entrance seemed filled with black energy.

“Father, enter the left one. This child will enter the right one with Qin Zibai,” Gu Han said.

“Alright!” Gu Hai nodded.

The three stepped into the two entrances at the same time.

Buzz!

The instant they stepped in, the golden swastikas vanished, along with the entrances.

------

The Mosquito Daoist gained the Heart of Darkness, grasping the darkness domain.

Chang Ming obtained the Blood Shaman’s deity. Although he had not fully refined it, he already had an initial grasp of the blood sea domain.

“We should leave immediately. Hurry! Gather with His Reverence at the central corpse pit!” the Mosquito Daoist called out.

Whoosh!

The two immediately shot towards the central corpse pit.

“Trying to leave? No one can escape me!” The Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon’s furious roar came from the horizon.

The Mosquito Daoist’s and Chang Ming’s expressions changed. They saw boundless Corpse Energy suddenly appear and fill the surroundings, blocking their path.

The two’s faces darkened as they came to a sudden stop.

Then, many figures walked out from the black fog, looking at the two blankly.

The Mosquito Daoist’s face sank. “These are…?”

“Do you know them?”

“They are powerful experts who had barged into the Corpse Mound World. Unexpectedly, the corpse worms made them puppets. Be careful!” the Mosquito Daoist said seriously.

“Roar! Roar!”

Many corpse worms appeared in the surroundings, looking at the Mosquito Daoist with ferocious expressions. These corpse worms gnashed their teeth, radiating intense Corpse Energy as they charged at the two.

“Move fast. Don’t hold back!” the Mosquito Daoist said.

“Alright!” Chang Ming nodded.

“Darkness domain!”

“Blood sea domain!”

Boom!

The two made their moves simultaneously. Boundless flame flames and surging blood mist appeared in the surroundings.

The Mosquito Daoist immediately turned into over ten thousand of himself, charging at the experts. Every Mosquito Daoist showed a fierce expression as they attacked at full power. Chang Ming did the same, turning into billions of bats that charged at the corpse worms.

“Die!” the Mosquito Daoists roared ferociously.

When the darkness domain appeared, a powerful divine nature spread out, and their bodies turned immaterial. When the experts attacked, they struck nothing.

Boom!

The Mosquito Daoists dealt fatal blows, shattering the experts.

Chang Ming did the same. Countless bats charged at the horde of corpse worms. The corpse worms and bats clashed.

Boom!

Countless bats and corpse worms exploded.

Just as Chang Ming and the Mosquito Daoist felt cocky, two palms suddenly appeared in the Corpse Energy and grabbed them.

Boom! Boom!

The ten thousand Mosquito Daoists merged back, and one hand held the neck of the remaining Mosquito Daoist, preventing him from moving.

On the other side, the countless bats gathered, and Chang Ming also returned to human form, the other hand holding him by the neck; he also could not move.

“Wh-what?” the Mosquito Daoist stammered with a horrified expression.

The Mosquito Daoist had just obtained the darkness domain and thought he was already sufficiently strong. Unexpectedly, he got restrained, just like that? The black flame on his back dealt no damage to the right hand holding his neck.

A man wearing a tall hat and robes with black embroidery and golden hems walked out of the surging Corpse Energy. This man was skinny, and his complexion was pale. His eyes had no whites, only pitch black; they looked extremely horrifying. He showed a cold expression as he looked at the Mosquito Daoist and Chang Ming, whom he held in his hands.

“It was worth giving up those subordinates. To think you two came to attack? Haha!” the man sneered.

“The Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon?” The Mosquito Daoist trembled.

This man was the Corpse Mound Peak’s peak master, the Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon.

“You…you abandoned those subordinates?” Chang Ming struggled in the Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon’s left hand. However, the Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon poured Corpse Energy into the two’s bodies as he held them. Chang Ming and the Mosquito Daoist could not move.

The Mosquito Daoist had shattered the Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon’s subordinates earlier. However, many corpse worms slowly climbed out of those shattered bodies.

Although Chang Ming had killed some corpse worms earlier, there were too many in the surroundings. These corpse worms followed the Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon, looking at the two with ferocious expressions.

“My subordinates? Them? They are just trash. Even without them, don’t I have you now? It will be the same if you become my subordinates. No, you are much stronger than them!” the Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon sneered.

“Us? You want to turn us into puppets?” The Mosquito Daoist’s expression changed dramatically.

“Let me see…which darling worm should I pick?” the Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon said sinisterly.

Eeee! Eeee! Eeee! Eeee! Eeee! Eeee!

Countless corpse worms immediately jumped up and down frantically, clamoring for the Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon to pick them. They wanted to enter either the Mosquito Daoist’s or Chang Ming’s brain and take control.

The Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon looked at the countless corpse worms as if about to choose.

“Consume the world!” A bellow suddenly came from above.

Boom!

A powerful suction immediately pulled on everyone, trying to consume them.

Eeee! Eeee! Eeee! Eeee!

Countless corpse worms shrieked in horror. The black wind that suddenly appeared swirled up a number of corpse worms.

“Humph!” the Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon snorted coldly and released intense Corpse Energy.

The Corpse Energy instantly enveloped all the corpse worms, preventing the owner of that voice from consuming them.

The black wind stopped. The expression of Kong Xuan, who is in the sky, changed dramatically.

“Lord Kong, save me!” the Mosquito Daoist cried out.

Right now, the Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon restrained him. Once the corpse worm consumed his brain, it would be over for him.

The Unborn Man stood next to Kong Xuan in the sky.

The Unborn Man sighed, “Fortunately, Lord Kong changed his mind. He entered the land of the living first before returning here, which changed the time and space here.”

Earlier, Kong Xuan had planned to meet Gu Hai at the central corpse pit. However, after flying a short distance, he sensed the Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon, so he warned the Unborn Man. Unfortunately, he could not find the Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon. After discussing this matter with the Unborn Man, he decided to leave and return to try again.

Indeed, they noticed the world around them had changed when they returned. They saw the Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon restraining the Mosquito Daoist and Chang Ming.

Kong Xuan tried to suck everything in but failed, which showed how horrifying the Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon was.

“There are so many corpse worms? Lifespan ritual array!” The Unborn Man extended his hand and waved, making a vast amount of black energy appear in the surroundings.

“You are laying a Burial Mound Lifespan Ritual Array in front of my corpse worms? How ridiculous!” the Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon snorted coldly.

Eeee! Eeee! Eeee! Eeee! Eeee! Eeee! Eeee! Eeee! Eeee! Eeee! Eeee! Eeee!

Countless corpse worms bared their fangs at the two.

Whoosh!

All the corpse worms rushed into the Unborn Man’s Burial Mound Lifespan Ritual Array.

Tens of thousands of corpse worms filled the space, instantly reaching the two.

“Excellent! Peacock domain!” Kong Xuan snarled as he flung his sleeve out.

Boom!

Bright azure light appeared in the surroundings as the peacock domain spread out.

Buzz!

As Kong Xuan deployed his divine Dao domain, the Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon stepped forward and appeared three meters from Kong Xuan in the blink of an eye.

The Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon moved too quickly for Kong Xuan to react.

“The peacock domain? You gained the inheritance of the Avian King, right? If not for that Avian King being stubborn, preferring to die than submit, it would have become my puppet long ago. To think you surpassed me?” the Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon sneered.

“Six-colored divine light!” Kong Xuan’s expression changed. He flung out a hand, throwing a six-colored divine light at the Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon.

Whoosh!

The Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon immediately pulled the Mosquito Daoist and Chang Ming to shield him.

“Despicable!” Kong Xuan’s expression changed as he swung the six-colored divine light, changing its course.

Kong Xuan did not want to injure the Mosquito Daoist and Chang Ming.

At this moment, Corpse Energy spewed out between the Mosquito Daoist and Chang Ming. A third hand suddenly manifested amid the Corpse Energy and thrust towards Kong Xuan’s neck to grab him.
