“All disciples must leave this place.” Zhuo Lie hollered and then he said to everyone else, “We have to take him down; we can’t leave him alive. This fellow shouldn’t have even existed, our kindness towards him has created that monster.”
The surrounding disciples were shocked and felt like things were about to get messy.
They were all disciples of Insect Valley and they had seen things in life that normal sects couldn’t even compare with.
Now that a random person returned and actually caused all the older generation experts to come out to stop him, that shocked everyone beyond words.
But they didn’t hesitate and all of them swiftly fled the same.
What a joke.
Although they didn’t know how strong this person was, since the Insect Valley experts paid so much attention to him, then he was definitely really strong. If they started fighting, then things would definitely become really terrifying. They were so close to him and if they ended up dying they wouldn’t even know what hit them.
Zhuo Lie waved his hand and a water-like barrier appeared, cutting off this place from the outside world. That was just in case the shockwaves from the battle were too terrifying and ended up destroying Insect Valley.
He didn’t underestimate Monster Emperor. Although this fellow was sick in the head, they couldn’t underestimate him. He wasn’t stupid and without having absolute strength he wouldn’t have come back to Insect Valley. Now that he was back it meant that he had enough strength to stand toe to toe with Insect Valley.
“Looking at you all makes me think about that dark and cold room. It was really humid and every day I just ate rotten bugs. There were also so many other things… Just thinking about it makes me miss those days.”
Monster Emperor smiled and that smile slowly turned dark. “I came here for the Nine Demon mother. I don’t care whether or not you all want to hand her over. But what I want, I always get.”
At that moment, a shocking aura exploded out from Monster Emperor’s body.
The ground beneath him cracked and numerous bugs floated behind his body.
Monster Emperor reached out his palm and clenched his fists. Those bugs merged together to form a giant black palm which grabbed forwards.
Zhuo Lie was infuriated by Monster Emperor. He came to Insect Valley and even used their resources to fight them. He didn’t even respect Insect Valley at all.
Monster Emperor’s control ability was just too strong.
Those disciples all looked on with their eyes and mouths opened wide. As Insect Valley disciples, they all knew how difficult it was to get the Insect Valley’s bug controlling techniques.
Moreover, since they started cultivating, they felt that the cultivating journey was just too tough.
Now, Monster Emperor was teaching them a harsh lesson, to tell them that their bug skills were just too weak.
Honglong!
A giant hand smacked the light barrier and nearly ripped it apart.
“Eh?”
Zhuo Lie frowned. Was he really so strong?
Monster Emperor improved too much. At the same time, he could see some bits of the Bug Controlling Technique in this but it was a little different from the Bug Controlling Technique.
“Zhuo Lie, remember my words; I just want the mother.”
Monster Emperor hollered. His arm instantly broke apart into many spikes that spread forwards. They seem to pierce through space as they covered Zhuo Lie and the other people.
Honglong!
There was an ear-deafening explosion. The battle began and a terrifying aura gathered into a storm that covered everything around.
As the battle continued, Zhuo Lie’s expression became really dark and sunken.
“I didn’t think that you would actually reach Dao Realm Stage Six Undying Body.” Zhuo Lie didn’t expect Monster Emperor to be so talented to actually reach such a level in just a few decades. He was probably not much weaker than Lin Wanyi, who had the most overpowered talent.
Monster Emperor didn’t say anything and controlled the specially nurtured bugs in Insect Valley to attack them.
When other people entered Insect Valley, they would have to face not only all these experts but also these endless bugs.
But for Monster Emperor there was nothing happier for him than fighting here.
His injuries continued to deepen.
But very quickly, those injuries healed up.
“What is going on?”
Zhuo Lie frowned and didn’t believe it. Undying Body was just a term, but it wasn’t truly undying like the name suggested.
Suddenly, he thought about something truly terrifying.
“Monster Emperor, did you succeed?” Zhuo Lie asked.
The Bug Controlling Technique was Insect Valley’s secret technique. Although rumors had it that the first Valley Head of Insect Valley created it, but those were just rumors. As the higher-ups, naturally they knew that the first Valley Head found the Bug Controlling Technique before he started Insect Valley.
Monster Emperor smiled. “Right, I modified the Bug Controlling Technique and found my own path. Didn’t you all say that it was impossible? Do you all see this now? What I said I would do, I will definitely do. Now, no one can stop me; even all of you together won’t be able to stop me.”
At that moment, Monster Emperor hollered in rage. His voice turned into shockwaves, ignoring the barrier and spreading outside. The soundwaves nearly caused the disciples’ eardrums to explode. At the same time, they realized that the bugs on them were getting restless and ignoring their commands.
Instantly, all the bugs that were reared started to get restless.
“Monster Emperor, you…” Zhuo Lie calmed the bugs down, but he didn’t expect them to ignore him. This was just unbelievably terrifying for him.
Numerous tentacles spread out from the ground. These were all large insects that Insect Valley raised and were originally hiding deep in the ground. Who knew that they would all pop out? If they went berserk, the outcome would be catastrophic.
Honglong!
Some of them cried out.
Those tentacles turned into large whips and smacked down. They ripped apart the buildings and caused injuries to many people.
Monster Emperor’s understanding of the Bug Controlling Technique exceeded everyone’s expectations and he even modified it.
“Enough.”
Just at that moment, there was a hoarse voice that calmed down all the bugs.
Monster Emperor looked into the distance, “Have I forced you out?”
“Monster Emperor, you leave the modified Bug Controlling Technique. If you agree, then I will hand the mother to you.” That voice rang out once more.
“Hehe, a trade? Sure. I don’t make things as complicated as you do and I also love to trade.” Monster Emperor raised his hand and many words and bug diagrams appeared, merging together. He flicked it with a palm and all of them flew outwards.
It flew into the depths and not long later there was a loud exclamation.
“Monster.”
Although it sounded like he was scolding someone, that person wanted to comment that Monster Emperor was really sick in the head.
“Now, it is time for you to keep your promise; it is time to give it to me.” Monster Emperor said.
The voice spread from the distance. “Zhuo Lie, go get the mother.”
Zhuo Lie was really unwilling. He was unhappy with Monster Emperor but there was nothing he could do. Things had reached such a stage, so what difference did it make that he was unhappy?
“Follow me.” Zhuo Lie looked at Monster Emperor and said.
The battle ended at this stage.
The disciples looked at Monster Emperor in terror.
Those who spent more time in Insect Valley seemed to remember who he was. A few decades passed and if they didn’t try their best to remember, they might not have been able to remember.
Monster Emperor looked at the scenery around and at the many familiar buildings. He recalled many of the past incidents. At that time, he was really small but he suffered terror beyond imagination.
“Zhuo Lie, Insect Valley seems decent but I want to destroy this place.” Monster Emperor said with a sinister tone.
Zhuo Lie stopped and killing intent spread out from his body. “Monster Emperor, don’t think that Insect Valley will let you bully us.”
“Hehe.” Monster Emperor laughed, “What a joke. In the past, you all were unhappy that I was modifying the Bug Controlling Technique, but now you want to trade for it with the mother. Of course, there are always some who can understand. Unfortunately, he is not around anymore. I also forgot to tell him that the technique that time was not complete and it was easy for mistakes to happen.”
Zhuo Lie’s face got darker and darker, “Monster Emperor, mind your words.”
The higher-ups knew that Feng Poliu didn’t actually kill his master. But some things couldn’t be told to the disciples, otherwise, Insect Valley would lose its honor.
Monster Emperor smiled and didn’t worry too much about Zhuo Lie’s threats.
His fat body was something that Zhuo Lie hated. It was the same as before.
“The world has become much more fun. The Alliance appeared and made all the sects active. Insect Valley has locked them up for so long, so isn’t it time to head out?” Monster Emperor said.
Zhuo Lie didn’t worry too much about Monster Emperor as he knew that he couldn’t be trusted.
Very quickly, with Zhuo Lie’s leadership, they came to a cave. The cave seemed really normal and unassuming but Monster Emperor felt like someone was secretly guarding this place.
Zhuo Lie looked warily at Monster Emperor. Although they had stopped fighting and came to an agreement, he wouldn’t trust him.
Monster Emperor was relaxed and wasn’t as nervous as Zhuo Lie.
Not long later, a giant corpse appeared in front of him. The corpse was chained up.
“I really don’t understand why you want this corpse.” Zhuo Lie said.
The mother was really terrifying when she was alive but she was dead now.
Monster Emperor laughed and his eyes shone with joy. He opened his palm and a mystical power spread out from his palm, wrapping up the body of the mother.
Not long later, an apple-sized ball of blood floated out from the body.
Zhuo Lie looked at the blood ball and was shocked. “Monster Emperor, what is that?”
For some reason, Zhuo Lie felt like something was stolen by the Monster Emperor.
“Nothing, it is just the blood in the body.” Monster Emperor didn’t hide anything. He looked at Zhuo Lie and swallowed this ball of blood.
Zhuo Lie frowned and felt like Monster Emperor had bad intentions coming here.
He looked at him and knew that the blood was really important. Otherwise, he definitely wouldn’t hand the modified Bug Controlling Technique to Insect Valley.
“A bunch of fools. You actually didn’t know that you had such precious thing in your hands.”
Monster Emperor laughed and wasn’t afraid that anyone would stop him.
“Okay, this body is useless to me now. It is time for me to leave.” Monster Emperor walked out.
For some reason, Zhuo Lie felt like Insect Valley was releasing a terrifying beast.
