Chapter 1442: Chapter 1441: Crisis Descends

Although the Corpse Emperor is arrogant, he is not so arrogant as to provoke the Dragon God Clan, let alone kill the young master of the Dragon God Clan.

The Dragon God Clan was the original overlord of the Heavenly Realm, incredibly powerful, and no force other than the Tianzun Divine Palace could rival it.

Such a terrifying existence, the Corpse Emperor does not dare to provoke.

“Great Elder, you’d better find someone else.” The Corpse Emperor slightly shook his head, unwilling to take such a risk.

“Hold on.” Zhuge Wuji hurriedly stopped him and said calmly, “The Immortal Heavenly Emperor may not have explained it clearly. I’m asking you to come, not to send you to your death. I’m not asking you to kill Wind Shadow, just to assist secretly.”

“Assist secretly?” The Corpse Emperor hesitated in his heart.

“That’s right, Wind Shadow is the newly cultivated young master of the Dragon God Clan, growing at a frightening speed. He is now at the late stage of the Heavenly Deity Realm, and his divine technique of teleportation has reached perfection. Many Heavenly Emperors and Great Heavenly Emperors can’t do anything to him, only you can break his teleportation.” Zhuge Wuji said.

“The Great Elder means I just need to break Wind Shadow’s teleportation?” The Corpse Emperor asked with a frown.

Zhuge Wuji nodded with a smile and said, “Exactly, as long as you break his teleportation, any Heavenly Emperor from the Tianzun Divine Palace can kill him. You don’t need to take action, you just need to secretly trap Wind Shadow, and the Dragon God Clan won’t know you assisted.”

“If that’s the case, then naturally there’s no problem. Breaking teleportation is a piece of cake for me.” The Corpse Emperor grinned.

Making a move in secret was perfectly suitable for the Corpse Emperor.

“Once the matter is done, I won’t stint on rewards.” Zhuge Wuji said with a calm smile.

“I just need a Celestial Immortal Grade Elixir to break through my cultivation; I don’t need anything else.” The Corpse Emperor directly stated his terms, a request for a Celestial Immortal Grade Elixir wasn’t asking too much.

After all, dealing with the young master of the Dragon God Clan this time, asking for a Celestial Immortal Grade Elixir is not excessive.

“No problem.” Zhuge Wuji agreed readily.

“When should I take action?” The Corpse Emperor asked.

“Anytime, the sooner the better.” Zhuge Wuji said.

“I’ll return in three days to find the Immortal Heavenly Emperor. Great Elder, farewell.” The Corpse Emperor politely bowed and then exited the grand hall.

After the Corpse Emperor left, the Immortal Heavenly Emperor said, “Great Elder, this man’s corpse insects are terrifying, not even those in the Tiandi Realm can withstand them.”

“If one’s cultivation doesn’t reach the Fifth Heavenly Emperor level, they can’t do anything to him. These corpse insects he nurtures can devour soul bodies and power. Without sufficiently strong power, one cannot stop the devouring of these thousands of corpse insects. This Corpse Emperor is not simple. It’s a pity such talent can’t be used by Tianzun Divine Palace.” Zhuge Wuji said gravely.

“Fifth Heavenly Emperor?” The Immortal Heavenly Emperor’s expression changed drastically. Thinking about the dense corpse insects seen in the Hall of Corpse Spirits, his heart was filled with horror.

The existence of the Corpse Emperor, even at the mid-stage of the Heavenly Emperor, is enough to make countless Great Heavenly Emperors wary.

“Never provoke him.” The voice of the Supreme said, then he appeared in the grand hall.

Zhuge Wuji glanced at the Supreme, frowning, “That old monster in Ancestral Corpse Mountain seems to have advanced significantly in cultivation.”

“What the Great Elder said is very true. This person has already broken through the Ninth Heavenly Emperor Realm. I just returned from Ancestral Corpse Mountain.” The Supreme said respectfully.

“You’ve already seen him?” Zhuge Wuji asked.

The Supreme nodded and said, “Exactly, but rest assured, Great Elder, the Ancestor Corpse has no intention of leaving the mountain.”

Zhuge Wuji laughed, “It seems he still has a bit of self-awareness.”

…

Dragon God Palace.

“Is this Wind Shadow’s Dragon God Palace? Really magnificent, secretly guarded by Great Heavenly Emperors and Heavenly Emperors. No strong members of the Dragon God Clan are present, but it’s still an extraordinary force, with fewer people than I imagined.”

After leaving the Tianzun Divine Palace, the Corpse Emperor immediately went to the Ling Realm to assess the power of Dragon God Palace and see Feng Wuchen.

“Whoosh!”

In the plaza of Dragon God Palace, a figure flashed into appearance. It was Feng Wuchen, just returning from the Tianying Pavilion.

“Lord Feng!”

“Alliance Hierarch!”

In Dragon God Palace, everyone greeted with respect.

“Is he Wind Shadow? No energy fluctuation, this person is deeply hidden, not simple.” The Corpse Emperor scrutinized Feng Wuchen.

“Hmm? He’s actually human! How can the young master of the Dragon God Clan be human?” The Corpse Emperor was utterly shocked.

On the plaza, Feng Wuchen walked a few steps and stopped.

Feng Wuchen suddenly turned his head to look at the void on the right, as if sensing something.

“An illusion?” Feng Wuchen muttered to himself.

“Oh? This kid has such sharp senses, no wonder even Great Heavenly Emperors can’t do anything to him. Almost got discovered by him, interesting.” The Corpse Emperor, hiding in the shadows, was surprised, Feng Wuchen’s keen perception far surpassed his expectations.

On the plaza, Feng Wuchen inadvertently noticed a black insect.

“Where did the insect come from in Dragon God Palace?” Feng Wuchen frowned slightly, feeling an ominous premonition in his heart.

Watching the black insect quickly crawl away, Feng Wuchen thought, “This insect’s aura is somewhat strange. It seems Tianzun Divine Palace has already started taking action.”

“Has it been detected? It seems it has already aroused his vigilance. Zhuge Wuji is quite eager to eliminate Wind Shadow, obviously quite afraid of him, fearing he’ll become the next Dragon God Supreme?” The Corpse Emperor thought to himself, slightly curling the corners of his mouth, then vanished from sight.

Across the grand Dragon God Palace, many corpse insects had already infiltrated underground, and a crisis was looming over the Dragon God Palace.

Feng Wuchen seemed completely unaware.

Inside the grand hall, as soon as Feng Wuchen sat down, Nie Hanfeng appeared.

“Master!” Nie Hanfeng greeted respectfully.

“The ominous premonition is growing stronger.” Feng Wuchen thought to himself, his expression bearing a sense of gravity.

“Increase vigilance, I have a feeling that Tianzun Divine Palace has already begun taking action.” Feng Wuchen said gravely.

“Yes!” Nie Hanfeng replied with respect.

“How are the arrangements going?” Feng Wuchen asked.

Nie Hanfeng replied respectfully, “As per your instructions, I have already found twenty-seven people.”

“Well done, take them to the fourth level of the Qiankun Tower and keep searching. Remember, do not disclose this matter to anyone.” Feng Wuchen nodded.

“I understand!” Nie Hanfeng responded respectfully, then flashed away.

Feng Wuchen slowly closed his eyes, quickly reviewing the memories of the Dragon Venerable’s awakening.

In no time, Feng Wuchen suddenly opened his eyes and said, “It’s him! The Corpse Emperor!”

In the Dragon Venerable’s memories, Feng Wuchen saw the black insect and saw the Corpse Emperor.

“The Corpse Emperor has no connection with the Tianzun Divine Palace. I didn’t expect the Tianzun Divine Palace to enlist him to deal with me. Are they trying to break my teleportation?” Feng Wuchen said with a slight cold smile, “It seems the underground of the Dragon God Palace is already filled with corpse insects. This ominous premonition is likely because of these corpse insects.”

“The Corpse Emperor, it seems you haven’t realized my true identity, corpse insects are indeed terrifying, but you don’t know that I’m the nemesis of corpse insects!” Feng Wuchen sneered.
