Poison King Valley is located in the Tianhuang Mountains, nearly 30,000 miles north of Yanhuang City.
The valley is shrouded in miasma year-round. Not to mention ordinary people, even highly skilled cultivators would become crippled if they stepped into Poison King Valley.
The towns and villages that were originally located in the Tianhuang Mountains were turned into mass graves because of the existence of Poison King Valley.
Corpses scattered everywhere, poisonous weeds covering the mountains, and Gu worms appearing everywhere—this is a true depiction of this desolate and barren mountain range.
Within Poison King Valley, heart-wrenching screams echoed endlessly.
A group of young cultivators, filled with chivalry and eager to eradicate this scourge of the cultivation world, became lambs to the slaughter the moment they stepped into Poison King Valley. They were bound to vines and became the subjects of the Netherworld Wheel Gu King's new drug experiments.
The long-term torment of poisons has gradually caused these cultivators to lose their human form. Their hunched bodies, emaciated and darkened skin, and haggard and numb faces are all suffering from both mental and physical torment.
"Hehehe, this is a new formula I concocted. Give it to them."
"yes."
Dressed in black with dark skin, the Netherworld Gu King handed a bottle of medicine emitting an eerie blue light to a disciple of the Poison King Valley.
The disciple immediately poured the medicine into the mouth of a female cultivator upon receiving the order.
The next moment, the female cultivator went mad, her eyes turning bloodshot like a ghost, and she kept screaming.
Soon after, green liquid flowed from the female cultivator's seven orifices, and black flames erupted from her entire body. In just a short while, she turned into a gloomy skeleton.
"Hahaha, my Corpse-Transforming Gu has finally been refined. Even if Empress Ziwei were to come in person, she would have to give way upon seeing my Gu poison."
Upon seeing this scene, the King of the Underworld Gu let out a ferocious laugh that sent chills down everyone's spine.
He devoted decades of his life to this day, and finally developed a new type of Gu worm with tremendous power.
In his excitement, he immediately ran to the top of Poison King Valley and roared to the sky, as if celebrating that his efforts over the years had not been in vain.
"Who in the world can surpass me in the art of poison? Hahaha!"
"I will prove to the world that using poison to cultivate the Dao can also lead to a completely new path in the world of cultivation, hahaha!"
Amidst the maniacal laughter, thunder rumbled, as if in response to the success of the Netherworld Wheel Gu King.
But in the next moment...
Jie—
A long howl pierced the sky.
Minglun's bewitching gaze turned cold, and he immediately looked up at the sky.
A figure with azure flames floated proudly down from mid-air and landed steadily on the opposite mountain peak.
"Who dares to trespass into my Poison King Valley?"
Accompanying this is a powerful and vigorous poetic chant:
"The battle cries arose, and the might of the army shook the mountains and rivers."
"The war song rises, the army breaks through the enemy lines, and the world is at peace!"
As the figure landed, what came into view was Shen Zhao's unparalleled figure.
"Netherworld Wheel Gu King, today I will put an end to what you have done!"
With a deep shout, the airflow exploded, and all the flowers, plants, and trees within several feet of Shen Zhao were shattered.
The King of the Underworld immediately went into a state of alert.
"What brings you to me, old man?"
"I only ask for two things, hoping the King of Gu will part with them."
What is it?
"The Seven-Colored Cloud Gu, and your head."
Ah~~
The furious roar echoed through the valley. Knowing that the newcomer was hostile, the Nether Wheel Gu King immediately activated all its cultivation, and in an instant, poisonous mist spread out as it flew towards the direction where Shen Zhao was.
However, facing the onslaught of the Netherworld Gu King, Shen Zhao remained calm and composed, as steady as Mount Tai.
With a flick of his cloak, he casually swung his hand just as the poisonous fog was about to reach him.
In an instant, the airflow reversed, and the poisonous fog immediately changed direction, sweeping back the way it came.
"Um?"
Unexpectedly, the King of the Underworld had this trick up his sleeve. He immediately used poison as a catalyst to condense a shield three feet in front of him.
Having blocked the backlash from the poisonous mist, the Netherworld Wheel Gu King frowned and asked, "Who exactly are you?"
Shen Zhao's expression was cold as he replied indifferently, "Dead people don't need to know so much."
"Arrogant!"
Enraged, the Netherworld Gu King once again unleashed his poisonous power.
Instantly, three ten-foot-long centipedes formed from condensed poisonous gas soared into the air and hurtled towards Shen Zhao.
"Five Poison Corpse Gu? Ridiculous!"
With a mocking laugh, Shen Zhao waved his hand again, unleashing the Nanming Fire within his body, instantly reducing the centipede to nothingness.
"Exploding Gu!"
Seeing that his ultimate move was easily neutralized by his opponent, the Netherworld Gu King decisively activated his true essence, and the surrounding poisonous mist gathered and converged on his hands.
Gradually, a green flame appeared in the center of the Netherworld Wheel Gu King's palms.
Within the flames, there appeared to be a giant worm wriggling incessantly.
"Go~"
With a push of both palms, the Exploding Gu rushed straight towards Shen Zhao with lightning speed.
The Netherworld Gu King was very confident in this move, thinking that he could surely kill this arrogant young man on the spot with one blow.
"Shifting stars and changing constellations".
As a result, Shen Zhao slightly turned his body, and a surge of powerful energy emerged, locking all the Exploding Gu in his palm.
Then, he pushed hard.
The Exploding Gu immediately shot towards the Poison King Valley gate at the foot of the mountain like a shooting star.
Boom~~
With a deafening roar, the entire Poison King Valley was instantly reduced to ruins.
"No, mine..."
The King of the Underworld was furious; his life's work had been destroyed by this young man who had appeared out of nowhere.
"The most painful thing in life is to suffer the consequences of one's own actions."
Shen Zhao's taunts thoroughly enraged the Netherworld Gu King.
"Boy, I will definitely turn you into a puppet, so that you will never be able to be reborn for generations to come."
"All you have left is your mouth."
