Meng Chuan walked step by step, his figure becoming blurry and illusory. He moved through the tunnel extremely quickly, but he was also extremely cautious.
After all, it was suicidal to be careless in a cave abode that was suspected to be built by a Seventh Tribulation Eminence.
Oh? Meng Chuan vaguely sensed a threat in front of him. He couldn’t help but be even more careful. He carefully probed the area in front of him with his Essence Soul, and he soon discovered the source of the threat.
What’s that? Meng Chuan quickly saw something.
On the tunnel wall in front of him were ghastly, sharp, white teeth. The ends of these teeth were embedded in the tunnel’s depths. The sharp teeth were pointing outwards. There were 38 sharp teeth. Some were like spikes; some were like scimitars; they were all of varying lengths. They were embedded into both sides of the tunnel, leaving only a 30-foot-wide passageway.
This should be the teeth of a living being. Meng Chuan looked at them. There were layers of runes on the surface of the teeth. The evil energy contained within the white teeth corroded the surrounding void.
This lifeform has died long ago. There are only a few teeth here, but they make me feel threatened. These teeth contain a strange power. It’s indeed terrifying. With a thought, Meng Chuan’s Essence Soul World suppressed these teeth with all its might. After cultivating his World Treasure, Meng Chuan’s Essence Soul World was strong enough to suppress a Fourth Tribulation Eminence! This suppression was naturally extremely powerful.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
When the teeth were suppressed, the runic patterns on the teeth’s surface became even more eye-catching. They trembled slightly, but because they were embedded into the tunnel walls, they didn’t shake too much.
Is the evil power contained in these teeth this area’s test? As Meng Chuan examined the teeth, he passed through the 30-foot-wide gap between the teeth. As he walked through the gap, he was also affected by the teeth’s evil power. He estimated that only a Third Tribulation Eminence and stronger could resist the evil power’s influence. Of course, Meng Chuan’s Essence Soul World could completely isolate him from its influence.
The owner of the teeth should be a Fifth or Sixth Tribulation realm lifeform. Meng Chuan had some guesses, but he felt that something was amiss. A cave abode was built, but the teeth of other lifeforms are embedded in this cave abode’s walls? This kind of action is somewhat special.
Meng Chuan continued to advance rapidly as he pondered the cave abode’s layout that the owner had purposely planned.
An hour later.
Meng Chuan’s eyes lit up as he looked at the tunnel ahead. Emperor Roc is right ahead. I’m finally going to capture you. Meng Chuan was filled with anticipation.
He had waited too long for this day.
…
In one of the lair’s caves, a dark wind howled.
Emperor Roc struggled to move forward because of the strong wind. Just as he took a step forward, the wind carried him and sent him flying for more than ten steps before he found his footing.
This wind is too powerful. I haven’t even walked through half of this. I can’t pass through this cave at all. Emperor Roc was in a sorry state as he glanced at the cave’s raging wind. The further he went, the stronger the wind became.
Emperor Roc tried a few more times. However, every time he struggled to advance, he would be sent flying backward by the wind.
After several attempts, he finally chose to give up.
I’m afraid only Fourth Tribulation Eminences and stronger can clear this. This is my limit. Emperor Roc also knew that even if a true expert reached this ancient cave abode’s end, it would still be a battle between Palace Lord Snowjade and the other Fifth Tribulation Eminences. It was already not bad if a Third Tribulation Eminence like him could obtain some treasures.
Emperor Roc turned his head and walked to the edge of the cave where the wind was weak. He chose a large rock and sat on it, leisurely waiting.
The wind here was very weak. Emperor Roc felt rather comfortable when the wind blew across his golden fur.
This is the end of my expedition in this cave abode. I’ll be leaving the cave abode once the one-year deadline is up. Emperor Roc was in a good mood. I deliberately slowed down while roaming this lair. The ones behind me should be weaker than me. It’s unlikely that I will encounter a Fourth Tribulation Eminence.
Snowjade and Black Wind each had one Fourth Tribulation realm subordinate.
Few people at the Fourth Tribulation realm were willing to follow a Fifth Tribulation Eminence.
Time passed.
Rumble!
Emperor Roc, who was sitting on a boulder, was leisurely drinking a flask of alcohol. The alcohol was very strong, but it suited his tastes very well.
Suddenly—
An Essence Soul World phantom invaded the void. The howling dark wind was suppressed into silence.
Oh? When Emperor Roc saw the Essence Soul World phantom, he jolted. An Essence Soul Tribulation Eminence?
The complete suppression of the cave’s wind made Emperor Roc panic greatly. He immediately shouted, “Senior, I’ve already given up…”
Before he could finish speaking, Emperor Roc lost consciousness.
Emperor Roc. At this moment, time stopped.
Meng Chuan took action at that moment. Everything around him was still. Even the dark wind stopped.
Meng Chuan instantly appeared beside Emperor Roc.
Emperor Roc still had a terrified look on his face; he seemed to be speaking anxiously. However, he remained motionless like a statue.
I’ve finally caught you. Meng Chuan looked at Emperor Roc. He was one of the three main instigators behind the human world’s demon invasion—which lasted for more than 900 years. He was also the leader of the demons.
Meng Chuan waved his hand and stored Emperor Roc into Fiend Prison.
…
Inside Fiend Prison.
Wh-where am I? Emperor Roc regained consciousness and looked around. He was in a dark space. Following that, he discovered that he was chained up. His hands and feet were shackled, and even his spine was bound by chains. His body was completely sealed, preventing him from using any demonic powers. His body became weak.
My treasures are all gone. Emperor Roc realized that all his treasures were missing. Even his robes were gone. Thankfully, his fur covered his body.
My body and Essence Soul have been sealed? Emperor Roc was somewhat uneasy. He couldn’t commit suicide in such a state.
At this moment, he was completely at the mercy of another person. However, he had cultivated for many years, allowing him to face the dire situation calmly.
I haven’t reached the Third Tribulation realm for long. I haven’t offended any powerful Tribulation Eminences, thought Emperor Roc to himself. There must be a special reason why I was imprisoned.
Following that, he looked up.
An Essence Soul World phantom enveloped him as a figure walked over from afar.
“Senior, Senior,” said Emperor Roc immediately. “I’m willing to offer all my treasures to you. I’ll definitely do my best to help you.”
When it was time to bow his head, he would obediently bow his head. Emperor Roc knew his limits.
“The Demon Realm’s strongest expert,” said the approaching figure. “It really wasn’t easy to capture you.”
“You?” Emperor Roc found the voice familiar.
The Essence Soul World phantom dissipated, revealing a white-haired man.
The white-haired man looked at him with mixed emotions.
“Do you recognize me?” Meng Chuan glanced at Emperor Roc.
Meng Chuan? Emperor Roc felt his vision turn dark. Fear, disbelief, and indignation—he was unable to think because of all his chaotic emotions.
Emperor Roc gradually regained clarity of his mind. He regained his rationality, but he felt like everything before him was a joke.
The human world’s Meng Chuan could actually capture him alive without him putting up any resistance?
One was the Demon Realm’s strongest expert, while the other was Archean Eon Realm’s strongest expert.
Was the strength difference between the two already so great?
“What are you doing?” Emperor Roc stared at Meng Chuan. “If you want to kill me, just kill me.”
Meng Chuan found it amusing.
Kill?
After killing Emperor Roc’s outer realm body, Emperor Roc could just cultivate another one quickly.
No, what Meng Chuan wanted to do was capture Emperor Roc alive and prevent him from committing suicide! This outer realm body could be used as a medium for a karmic attack. Once Meng Chuan was completely confident, he could kill this outer realm body. With the karmic connection between this body and Emperor Roc’s other avatars, Meng Chuan could kill all of Emperor Roc’s avatars in one fell swoop. Without a medium, a karmic attack’s might would greatly decrease.
Blood and flesh were good mediums. Emperor Roc’s true body was a complete body and had a complete Essence Soul. It was the best medium for karmic attacks.
“The three of you are the main instigators behind the demon invasion. We humans haven’t forgotten about this grudge for even one day.” Meng Chuan looked at the imprisoned Emperor Roc and said, “All of you have to pay back what you owe us humans. Today, I’ll kill Imperial Lord Starquix and Lady Blackmoon and let them head to the underworld first. As for you? It’ll be your turn soon.”
With Meng Chuan’s Fifth Tribulation Eminence strength, he could easily kill the two ordinary Imperial Lords through karma. However, he held back from attacking the enemy before capturing Emperor Roc alive. He didn’t want to alert his enemies too early.
Now, it was time for him to attack the Demon Realm’s three strongest experts.
Starquix, Blackmoon. Emperor Roc was anxious, but he couldn’t do anything. He couldn’t save the two demon Imperial Lords.
