"Self-destruction?"
Bai Zihe sensed the Evil King's intent and sneered disdainfully, saying calmly, "Evil King, you don't need to struggle. It's hard for you to die in front of me!"
As his voice fell,
A powerful true essence instantly spread throughout the Evil King's body,
Suppressing his true essence bit by bit, making it impossible for him to self-destruct.
"I'll give you one last chance..."
Bai Zihe stared at the Evil King with cold eyes, radiating endless chilling light. "Tell me now, where is Miao Miao? I can still grant you a swift death."
"Otherwise..."
"I have a hundred ways to make you speak."
Who would have thought.
Even in such a situation, the Evil King remained nonchalant. "Bai Zihe, I admit, your methods are indeed formidable."
"But..."
"You've made one mistake. It's not that I have no way to commit suicide, but that I don't want to."
"Hahaha..."
Bai Zihe's expression suddenly changed.
He suddenly realized that there was no dantian within the Evil King's body.
No dantian, how could this be possible?
"Swish..."
Without hesitation, Bai Zihe immediately released a wisp of divine sense into the Evil King's body for a meticulous investigation.
Soon.
That wisp of divine sense reached the location where a normal person's dantian would be.
However, there was nothing else there for the Evil King, no purple mansion or nascent soul. Only a Gu worm was roaring at him!
The Evil King's dantian was actually a Gu worm!
"Hahaha..."
Seeing that he had discovered the truth, the Evil King proactively said, "Bai Zihe, did you see? This is just one of my avatars..."
"With my current strength, I can nurture Gu worms that I could never have imagined before, such as the Substitute Gu!"
"With the Substitute Gu, I can create clone after clone!"
"As long as..."
"My true body is not discovered by you, I will never die, and I can use endless avatars to harass you."
"Kill your loved ones, abduct your friends, torment your spirit..."
"Hahahaha..."
The Evil King's voice was extremely arrogant and rampant.
Yes.
With this ultimate skill, it was indeed enough to protect himself, preventing Bai Zihe from catching him red-handed and dying on the spot.
This was also...
He had been intimidated by Bai Zihe last time, so he learned from his mistakes and acquired this technique. His main body would not appear, making it foolproof.
"Bang..."
Immediately, the Evil King gave Bai Zihe no chance and directly dissipated this clone, leaving Bai Zihe with no news whatsoever.
Bai Zihe's face darkened.
This time, he had indeed miscalculated and was outsmarted by the Evil King.
However, the problem was not too great.
A long time ago.
He had encountered a Grandmaster level Gu master who also had an avatar. Bai Zihe had destroyed that avatar on the spot, causing a backlash and severe injury to the main body.
From this, it could be seen that...
There was still some connection between the main body and the avatar.
Besides,
This Evil King had been infected by the dark anomaly. Finding him would not be too difficult.
"Swish..."
Bai Zihe flipped his right hand, and the True Spirit Pearl appeared.
After the Evil King's body self-destructed just now, the black gas on the True Spirit Pearl had diminished significantly, but it had not completely disappeared.
This gas...
Gathered at one point on the surface of the True Spirit Pearl.
Bai Zihe immediately understood that the True Spirit Pearl was guiding him in the direction of the dark anomaly.
However.
Bai Zihe was slightly surprised that this thing was pointing towards the tower above.
"Could it be..."
Bai Zihe frowned slightly, then flashed and appeared on top of the tower.
"Swish..."
"Swish..."
As soon as he went up, numerous mechanisms were triggered.
Countless Gu worms surged from all directions. They discovered Bai Zihe as if flies had smelled raw meat, charging forward one after another.
"Die!"
Bai Zihe let out a cold shout, and a powerful sonic wave erupted, filled with supreme five-elemental profound truths, instantly annihilating all the Gu worms.
Bai Zihe continued towards the direction of the dark anomaly.
"Hmm?"
As Bai Zihe walked, he suddenly found that there was no road ahead.
However, this could not stop him.
"Crash..."
With a mere thought, a massive true essence palm struck the wall, blasting a large hole through it.
It turned out to be a wall over ten meters thick.
But in front of Bai Zihe, who was in the Tribulation Transcension stage, it was still as fragile as tofu, and was instantly penetrated, revealing the situation inside.
There, someone was sitting cross-legged, cultivating.
This aura...
It was precisely the Gu cultivator of Grandmaster level that Bai Zihe had encountered before.
However, his strength had now reached the Nascent Soul stage, with an evil nascent soul formed within him. Numerous Gu worms were constantly crawling on it, as if children were playing.
The Gu cultivator probably never imagined that Bai Zihe, with just a thought, had understood him completely and clearly.
"It's you!"
The Gu cultivator recognized Bai Zihe at a glance and sneered, "Bai Zihe, you destroyed one of my avatars back then. Today, I will make you pay!"
As his voice fell,
The Gu cultivator soared into the air, his fingers grasping the void, and lunged towards Bai Zihe's chest. "Take your life! I will pluck out your heart to feed my children!"
During this period.
He had received a blessing from the Evil King, and his strength had greatly increased, no longer putting Bai Zihe in his eyes.
After all, in their previous battle, although Bai Zihe was powerful, he was only at the Core Formation stage. After several months, he had long surpassed Bai Zihe!
Only...
The next moment, Bai Zihe merely glanced at him.
This glance...
Ten thousand mountains and rivers froze at this moment.
The Gu cultivator felt an immense power engulfing him, rendering him completely immobile.
Then...
"Bang!"
The Gu cultivator exploded on the spot, dead beyond redemption.
After the Gu cultivator died.
The black gas on the True Spirit Pearl in Bai Zihe's hand immediately disappeared, returning to its previous transparent and crystalline appearance.
This made Bai Zihe frown slightly.
Looking at the situation,
The Evil King, who had been invaded by the dark anomaly, was actually outside the sensing range of the True Spirit Pearl!
Therefore, Bai Zihe had to fully release his divine sense to probe for the Evil King's location.
After all, the range of divine sense was still larger than the sensing range of the dark anomaly.
"Swish..."
His divine sense extended outwards.
One li, ten li, a hundred li...
The divine sense of a cultivator in the Tribulation Transcension stage was terrifying, but Bai Zihe still could not detect the Evil King's aura.
He also sensed some strange places.
However, there were too many such strange places, and he could not determine the Evil King's whereabouts for the time being.
At the same time.
In a certain place.
A figure abruptly stopped his actions, a flicker of terror flashing in his eyes. It was none other than the Evil King!
On the wall in front of him, a young girl was tied up.
It was Miao Yinuo.
