Starting with the Corpse-Eating Worm, he worked his way up to become the Left-Winged Immortal Lord.

"Third tier!"

Chen Ye was startled.

Even though he had sensed the appearance of the corpse-eating worms, he had just swung his hammer, and it was too late to stop.

Fortunately, his years of secretly raising Zhongli Daoist were not in vain; he had been using his life essence to nourish the Yin Talisman.

Open! Open! Open!

Hurry up!

Chen Ye was deeply moved.

Just as the corpse-eating worms were about to land on him, the Yin Horse Floating Pagoda Yin Talisman that he had nurtured for many years activated in response.

Five malevolent horses neighed and transformed into black chains, charging out and swirling with intense malevolent energy as they attacked the corpse-devouring worms. The malevolent energy they exuded far surpassed the mid-stage of Qi Refining and was almost infinitely close to the late-stage of Qi Refining.

It is no exaggeration to say that anyone who is not in the late stage of Qi Refining will die if they are hit by the black chains, even if they have magical artifacts.

"As expected, he had a trump card." Gu Qing wasn't surprised. "But ultimately, it's still not as powerful as a third-tier defensive talisman."

The words fell.

Click!

A sound of breaking chains rang out.

The sound of breaking was mixed with the painful neighing of the Yin Horse as it was being torn apart.

When one black chain was smashed, the other four tried to pull and resist the corpse-eating worms, but they were also smashed one by one.

"No……"

Chen Ye immediately released the hammer handle with both hands and turned to flee.

But it was ultimately too slow.

Swah——

A dark shadow flashed by.

Chen Ye's movements came to an abrupt halt, and blood gushed out from his neck like a fountain, staining the surroundings red.

"This..." Baili, who had just been suppressed, was shocked and quickly retreated, his fear of the corpse-eating worms reaching its peak.

Deng Hui, who was standing to the side, also quickly retreated, fearing that the corpse-eating worms would attack him after killing Chen Ye.

"Fellow Daoist Chen!"

"Fellow Daoist Chen!"

Master Qiuyue and his companion exclaimed in surprise.

This sudden turn of events left them both bewildered and shocked.

They never expected that the first to die tonight would be their leader, Chen Ye.

Chen Ye has been scheming for years, and almost everyone in Wufeng Temple is now under his control. Once he breaks through to the late stage of Qi Refining, Chen Ye can become the third Vice Abbot. At that time, Chen Ye's status and power will surpass that of any other Vice Abbot.

Even Vice Abbot Wei is not as good as him!

It even secretly nurtured a legendary second-tier Yin Horse Floating Pagoda Yin Talisman.

If this talisman is nurtured into a powerful treasure, it can surpass most third-tier talismans.

Most importantly, it is reusable and does not become useless once used, unlike attack talismans.

If successful, it will be no less powerful than any late-stage Qi Refining cultivator's trump card.

But tonight, Chen Ye was the first to die.

Years of painstaking planning, all gone in one night!

Before the two could react further, the Corpse-Eating Worm swallowed Chen Ye's body whole, and then suddenly released a terrifying aura towards Daoist Qiuyue and the other, causing their expressions to change drastically. They hurriedly activated their natal magic weapons with all their might.

But they discovered that the insect did not attack immediately, but stared at them for several breaths before suddenly splitting in two.

However, instead of attacking them, it suddenly concealed its aura and headed back towards Deng.

"Um?"

Deng Hui was startled.

But just as he was about to use the third-tier Azure Light Earth Protection Talisman, he saw that the two insects were not fast and had not shown any killing intent when they came.

And it's getting slower and slower.

"What's going on?"

Deng Hui was filled with suspicion and dared not be careless.

But as soon as the Azure Light Earth Protection Amulet was used, the two insects suddenly disintegrated on their way to him, turning into corpse energy and disappearing.

The familiar scene startled Deng Hui.

It's not the real thing, is it?

Where is the original body?

Why has the original body disappeared again?

In a moment of stunned silence, Lü Song let out a furious roar that shattered the night sky.

"How dare you! You killed my Futang steward, and now you've killed my Wufeng Temple protector... Deng Hui, you won't leave here alive tonight!"

Deng Hui's expression changed drastically.

That person did it on purpose!

The goal is to make him bear Chen Ye's life!

Damn!

Even though you're not afraid of being bitten by a lot of lice, this feeling of being blamed for something you didn't deserve is more disgusting than a newlywed wife sleeping in Old Wang's bed!

He had already been blamed for the theft of Fu Fenglin's body, and now he's being blamed for killing Chen Ye.

"Leave them all here!"

Enraged, Deng Hui harnessed the poisonous insects and fiercely attacked Daoist Qiuyue and his companion.

Baili and his companion quickly followed.

Although neither of them understood what was happening, and even suspected that Chen Ye was killed by Deng Hui, now was not the time to investigate.

Chen Ye is dead.

Wufeng Temple is now one person short.

good chance!

"Don't even think about leaving."

Baili rode the Yin spirit and charged forward. Amidst the howling of the Yin wind, the two were forced to retreat continuously, and he laughed gleefully.

"go!"

Deng Hui raised his hand and took out a genital organ.

As soon as the genitals opened, another eerie green venomous insect flew out, its wings fluttering, and a murky, putrid stench carried on the wind.

Upon seeing the poisonous insects and smelling the stench of decay, Master Qiuyue and his companion were horrified. "These are bone-rotting plague insects!"

Plagues are common in the mortal world.

It happens once every eight or ten years.

If a plague breaks out, at least tens of thousands will die, and half the city's population will perish.

If the situation is severe, very few ordinary people in an entire county will survive.

Most of these plagues are caused by these bone-rotting plague worms.

The bone-rotting plague worms bring about a plague.

It was also nourished by plague.

A single second-tier upper realm, comparable to a Qi Refining level six cultivator, the Corpse-Rotting Plague Worm has claimed the lives of countless mortals.

"retreat!"

Master Qiuyue had just spoken.

however.

The bone-rotting plague worms were already heading towards him at a terrifying speed, but just as they were about to reach him, they suddenly changed direction and pounced on another Wufeng Temple protector beside him.

He was already tormented by evil spirits, and now that he was suddenly attacked, he was unable to react at all and was immediately bitten by the bone-rotting plague insects.

Upon being bitten, the spirit at the bite site began to rapidly decay.

Ten breaths.

The entire arm rotted away, leaving only bones.

"what……"

The Wufeng Temple protector screamed repeatedly, frantically pulling things out of his storage bag in an attempt to save himself.

however.

Ultimately, it can only rot away amidst its own screams.

"Good riddance!"

Baili laughed heartily, the pain of his natal ghost being killed dissipated by more than half, and the vengeful spirits around him also joined in with sinister laughter.

"Vice Abbot Lü!"

Seeing this, Qiu Yue could only flee while pleading for help from Lü Song.

Now, of the three, only she remains.

If no one comes to her rescue, she will surely die.

Just as Lü Song was about to move, he was entangled by Vice Master Xu's Blood Nails.

I underestimated you!

Lu Song looked at Deng Hui with murderous intent.

Deng Hui felt a chill run down his spine, but when he remembered that he wasn't alone, he immediately grinned at Daoist Qiuyue.

"It's your turn."

With a wave of his hand, he once again commanded the poisonous insects to attack Daoist Qiuyue.

"I don't want to die... I don't want to die... Someone save me, I'm willing to give anything!" Daoist Qiuyue anxiously tried to escape by manipulating his magical artifact. Seeing that Baili and the other person were getting closer and closer to the poisonous insects, he could only fly into the forest below.

however.

The trees in the mountains and forests can't even obstruct the view; at most, they can only block some of the line of sight. But cultivators can still sense them.

"Vice Abbot Lü! Save me!" As the two people behind her drew closer, Daoist Qiuyue was already prepared to switch sides at the last minute.

In order to survive.

What if I join the Heavenly Principle Sect?

But at that very moment, a golden sword light suddenly burst forth from the dense forest, hurtling towards Baili with lightning speed.
