Suddenly, the atmosphere in the arena changed dramatically.
The Mang Yan, which had been shattered into countless Shadow Insects by Shang Yun, transformed into strands of lifeless Black Smoke that surged crazily toward the position where Lin Qiubai was hiding.
The sound of rushing air filled the space incessantly.
Each Shadow Insect revealed its terrifying mandibles.
It seemed as if they were about to pounce on Lin Qiubai in an instant, devouring him until not even his bones remained.
The intensity of the assault was extraordinarily frightening, enough to scare a Transcendence Peak expert out of their wits.
The man's cultivation was at the peak of Nirvana Realm Eightfold.
Without such high cultivation, he wouldn't have been able to converse directly with the Supreme King.
"Get away!"
A hint of panic surged in Shang Yun's delicate brows.
The gap in cultivation between Lin Qiubai and Mang Yan was not trivial at all.
If Lin Qiubai were to be attacked, he would die instantly.
Shang Yun lunged toward Lin Qiubai, her Vital Energy surging wildly as she tried to intercept the Black Smoke before it could touch his body.
However, that Black Smoke was not ordinary; if she were to come into contact with it, she would also suffer injuries.
This was undoubtedly a very risky act of rescue.
"There's no time..."
The man chuckled ominously as a swarm of Shadow Insects enveloped Lin Qiubai's surroundings.
With billions of Shadow Insects, even though Shang Yun was a powerful figure in the Life Profound Realm, it would be difficult for him to block every single Shadow Insect flawlessly.
As long as one Shadow Insect slipped through the cracks, Lin Qiubai would meet his end at the jaws of the Shadow Insects.
Each Shadow Insect possessed destructive power comparable to the first or second level of the Nirvana Realm, and their defensive capabilities were astonishing!
Otherwise, how could Mang Yan maintain a foothold among the late-stage experts of the Nirvana Realm?
However, facing Mang Yan's ambush, Lin Qiubai merely smiled calmly, not even moving an inch.
From the perspective of picking on the weak and avoiding the strong, Mang Yan's choice made sense.
Lin Qiubai was so young; his cultivation must be pitifully low, making him an easy target.
And judging by Shang Yun's reaction upon sensing the ambush, it was clear that Lin Qiubai was indeed unable to fend off his attack.
This realization prompted Mang Yan to accelerate slightly, darting toward Lin Qiubai like lightning.
The Shadow Insects continued to flicker in and out of existence, layers of deathly aura rushing toward Lin Qiubai's face.
"Dodge, you fool!"
Shang Yun bit her red lips, her delicate body trembling with anger.
Lin Qiubai smiled without saying a word.
If other powerful beings from the Nirvana Realm had attacked him, Lin Qiubai would have likely exhausted all his strength and fled for his life.
However, the existence of Mang Yan was an unexpected twist.
The Shell, composed of billions of Gu Worms, could not be killed or worn down. To other powerful beings, it might seem quite special and difficult to deal with.
But Lin Qiubai couldn't help but laugh.
This was a gift-wrapped opportunity for him to show off!
It was as if they were forcefully handing him a chance for a spectacular move!
With this thought in mind, Lin Qiubai stood firm, his aura becoming exceptionally stable, and he let out a cold chuckle:
"Why did you have to seek death by running into my hands?"
Lin Qiubai's voice spread lightly as he extended his palm.
An aura belonging to an absolute king among the Gu Worms quietly spread out.
This came from a higher quality of life.
To the Shadow Insects, it felt like an overwhelming presence akin to heavenly might.
It oppressed their tiny organs and limited divine essence, making it hard for them to continue.
The Black Smoke formed by Mang Yan slowly took shape in the Void.
A fragmented humanoid was nailed to the Void.
"Actually, you'll die even faster in front of me..."
Lin Qiubai flipped his palm, fingers together, using the Soul Ice Flame as a blade. With a gentle slash, a cluster of Shadow Insects was obliterated, the sound of explosions ringing out incessantly.
Evil energy and black mist splattered everywhere, landing on the ground with a hissing sound, blue smoke swirling.
"Ah!"
A piercing wail echoed through the Royal Tomb.
This feeling was different from Shang Yun shattering its Shell.
Shang Yun merely scattered the Shadow Insects that made up its Shell; that attack leaked entirely through the gaps, having little impact on Mang Yan.
But Lin Qiubai directly erased a part of his body.
Moreover, it was done in an extremely domineering manner, inch by inch obliterating him, the pain penetrating to the bone.
It felt like being cut into pieces.
Lin Qiubai raised his hand and struck out several more times, reducing Mang Yan to a mere stick figure.
The Shadow Insects that formed his limbs vanished completely, leaving no possibility for repair or regeneration.
Upon witnessing this scene, the two remaining Sovereigns quickly took two steps back, looking at Lin Qiubai with fear in their eyes.
Nirvana Realm The powerful beings of Yae are merely one step away from death; how can they not be afraid?
Moreover, Mang Yan belongs to a type of evil existence that is difficult to deal with even when surrounded by many, and can even retaliate unexpectedly!
Even the attacks from Life Profound Realm experts were ineffective against him twice, highlighting how troublesome he is.
However, Mang Yan was so bizarre that he was effortlessly eliminated with a mere gesture from Lin Qiubai.
Doesn't this indicate that Lin Qiubai is even more unfathomable?!
"Heaven has a path you refuse to take; Hell has no door, yet you barged in..."
Lin Qiubai, still reveling in his display of power, unleashed the Soul Ice Flame, shattering Mang Yan's remains completely.
A once-great expert, and an extremely troublesome Evil Cultivator, now reduced to nothingness.
Shang Yun stood not far from Lin Qiubai, her red lips slightly parted, her delicate face filled with disbelief.
She knew Lin Qiubai well. How could someone at the initial stage of Creation Realm possibly eliminate a late-stage Nirvana Realm expert with a mere flick of his hand?
"It’s just a special method... coincidentally effective against these Gu Worms."
Lin Qiubai said casually, his gaze sweeping over to the remaining two Successive Monarchs. After Mang Yan's death, their expressions gradually twisted into something ferocious, their eyes bulging and bodies contorting in a horrifying manner as they slowly darkened.
"What is this?"
Shang Yun's pupils constricted.
"They have been infected with Gu Worms. The effects have already begun. If you disable their cultivation, I might have a way to save them."
Shang Yun bit her lip and finally took action to destroy the meridians of both individuals.
Lin Qiubai then used the will of the Demon Wugui to command the Gu Worms within them.
Under the pressure from the Heavenly Insect, which of the worms could withstand it?
The worms obediently wriggled out from their bodies, only to be frozen into shards by Lin Qiubai's Soul Ice Flame.
"I didn't expect you to have such a deep understanding of Gu Worms. You wouldn't be an Evil Cultivator, would you? If you are an Evil Cultivator, I will cripple your cultivation and then take you to hide in the mountains, preventing you from causing harm to others."
Shang Yun carefully scrutinized Lin Qiubai, seemingly trying to uncover the secrets hidden within him.
She felt that she could not tame Lin Qiubai; if he truly were an Evil Cultivator, she would definitely eliminate any signs of him harming the world at the first opportunity.
Then she would dominate the latter half of Lin Qiubai's life.
"How could I possibly be an Evil Cultivator? I am the one who will make Evil Cultivators flee in fear."
Lin Qiubai smiled calmly.
"However, the aura on this person is not the strange aura I sensed that day in the Palace..."
Shang Yun expressed her doubts; Mang Yan's aura was far from reaching that terrifying level.
