Chapter 515: The Domain of Corpse Poison

Zhang Mu felt a chill down his spine, but Luo Wanxun had already darted in front of him, with Qing Ling showing no signs of weakness either.

“I can’t believe you still need a woman’s protection, it’s truly ridiculous.”

There was a sense of seriousness in Zhang Mu’s eyes, the Corpse Emperor had yet to reveal his awakening ability, but the overwhelming pressure of his leadership alone was already too much to bear.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to move, but his initial third-rank strength was simply too weak, unable to budge under the heavy aura of the Corpse Emperor, a fourth-rank leader.

He took a deep breath, the Buddhist Demon Pagoda tattoo on his chest reignited, his primordial energy burning wildly within him.

Sharira in Zhang Mu’s mind reached its peak operation.

Boom!

The energy of a fourth-ranking burst forth, setting Zhang Mu free. He took a step forward and stood quietly alongside the two women.

“One from the spiritual realm, another a girl who hasn’t fully awakened her powers, yet both reaching the peak of the third rank.”

“Do you think this is just a game of make-believe?”

Zhang Mu’s presence did not seem threatening to the Corpse Emperor, who looked at the three of them with a fake smile.

“With just you alone, the three of us are enough. You are not even worthy of having Vaidehi sister intervene!”

Despite the Corpse Emperor’s intimidation, Qing Ling, at the peak of the third rank, remained composed and provocatively challenged. Zhang Mu felt anxious but held back as making a move now would weaken their stance. His mind raced with thoughts.

How did this little troublemaker sneak in? Normally, being reckless and disrespectful within the plant clan is protected by fellow members.

Now they were facing the king of the zombie clan!

Where did this boldness come from?

If Zhang Mu was truly a beginner at the fourth level, and had an awakening of self-realization, maybe there was still a chance in this battle. But right now, he’s just pretending to be tough.

If he really makes a move, he’ll be exposed.

For now, he can delay a little bit. Qing Ling keeps provoking the Corpse Emperor, who is on the edge of losing control, repeatedly. Zhang Mu is already thinking about how to escape later.

But in the next moment, Zhang Mu’s eyes widened in surprise.

After Qing Ling finished speaking, she actually made a move towards the Corpse Emperor!

At this moment, Zhang Mu also understood where Qing Ling’s confidence lay.

A green pine needle flashed out of Qing Ling’s sleeve, covering the area where Corpse Emperor was located, raining down on him.

Initially not taking it seriously, even with his peak third-level strength and without activating his protective abilities, the attack wasn’t strong enough to break through the Corpse Emperor’s defenses.

However, when these ordinary pine needles hit the Corpse Emperor’s defenses, something unbelievable happened.

These pine needles completely ignored the power of the Corpse Emperor’s domain and pierced through it as if it was nothing!

Although most were avoided, a few pine needles still managed to prick his face due to the Corpse Emperor’s carelessness.

Although not deeply stuck, the Corpse Emperor now looked like a live hedgehog!

Unlike Qing Ling, Zhang Mu wasn’t as optimistic. Even if her strange pine needles could break through the Corpse Emperor’s domain, they wouldn’t pose a real threat to him.

The pine needles that pierced the Corpse Emperor’s body were shallow and he was now pulling them out one by one with a curious expression.

His movements were slow, but Zhang Mu watched in terror.

Did Qing Ling make the Corpse Emperor interested?

Seeing that the pine needles had no effect, Qing Ling felt a bit unsure but then remembered the poisonous substance she had in them. She looked at the Corpse Emperor and said, “These pine needles contain a deadly poison. You must be running low on strength now, pretending to be confident.”

Qing Ling now had a hint of pride in her eyes, as this was something she had carefully prepared.

Normally rely on being cute and playful, she extracted some of the poison from her uncles and uncles with toxins, and mixed it with stolen toxins from some weak animals, such as toads and centipedes, creating a rare kind of poison.

She soaked her pine needles in this poison for a long time, carrying it carefully on her body, just waiting for the day when she could use it.

She was very confident in her poison. In previous tests, even older relatives at the fourth rank were paralyzed for a long period of time. That’s why she was known as the witch princess among the plant tribe.

Zhang Mu stared closely at the Corpse Emperor, who was pulling out pine needles slowly and calmly, feeling uneasy.

“Are you talking about these little things?”

The Corpse Emperor slowly opened his palm, revealing a small black bead in the center.

“How is this possible!”

Seeing the solid substance in the Corpse Emperor’s hand, Qing Ling instinctively moved closer to Zhang Mu.

This Corpse Emperor actually extracted all the toxins that Qing Ling had injected into his body!

“Indeed, you must have extracted toxins from some fourth-rank evolved creatures, with a scent of plants and Beastmen.”

Coupled with your disregard for boundaries, if it was those two Beast Emperors, it might have worked.

Unfortunately, you encountered me, the Corpse Emperor.

“Is there anything more vicious than my corpse-refining poison in this world?”

“Ridiculous!”

The Corpse Emperor actually swallowed Qing Ling’s condensed demon toxin in front of Zhang Mu and the other two.

After swallowing the demon toxin, a hint of redness appeared on the pale face of the Corpse Emperor.

Surprisingly, this demon toxin was an absolute tonic for the Corpse Emperor!

Zhang Mu watched the Corpse Emperor’s movements now, and his vigilance rose to the highest level.

He underestimated the Corpse Emperor’s abilities, and perhaps Vaidehi did too.

The only chance now is for the human race inside the barrier to discover this and work together.

Or perhaps, Vaidehi will appear.

Why hasn’t Vaidehi shown up yet? If she doesn’t at this point, the entire plant army will truly be left here.

What is she so afraid of?

Corpse Emperor slowly released his domain, enveloping Zhang Mu and the others within it.

“Now, enjoy my deadly corpse poison domain.”

The Corpse Emperor’s voice gently echoed in Zhang Mu and the others’ ears, like a summons to death.

Black, nothing but endless black.

A rotten smell came from the Corpse Emperor’s body.
