Bang~!

As the Black Poison Gu King uttered the word "burst," hundreds of white poisonous bees surrounding the Thunder God, Jiang Huo'Er, Qin Yang, and the others instantly exploded.

White smoke filled the forest, immediately enshrouding Thunder God and the others.

"Heh heh, after the Enchanting Poisonous Bee Gu bursts, it transforms into Enchanting Smoke. This kind of smoke, even if not inhaled, can soften the body and obscure the senses simply by touching the skin, ultimately causing unconsciousness."

The Black Poison Gu King looked at the white smoke rising in the forest and laughed eerily.

Thud! Thud!

In the white smoke, the figures of Thunder God, Jiang Huo'Er, and Man Shan fell one after another.

Minutes later, the smoke gradually dissipated, leaving several figures collapsed on the ground.

"Heh heh, ants are just ants. With a slight trick, they are completely helpless."

The Black Poison Gu King chuckled softly, then stepped towards the people lying on the ground.

Seeing this, Yun Luo's face paled. She looked at the Black Poison Gu King advancing toward Thunder God and the others, clenched her teeth, seemingly resolved, and said coldly, "Black Poison, what do you think this is?"

The Black Poison Gu King paused upon hearing her and looked toward Yun Luo.

In Yun Luo's jade-like hand, there was suddenly a silkworm, unknowingly appearing. The silkworm exuded a seven-colored halo all around, looking dreamlike and somewhat surreal.

"This is... the Seven-Colored Illusionary Moth?!"

A gleam flashed in the old eyes of the Black Poison Gu King.

"Heh heh, no wonder nobody in the Miao Village obtained this Seven-Colored Illusionary Moth; turns out that old woman gave the Moth passed down through generations of Gu Kings to you, the Saintess."

The Black Poison Gu King laughed.

Back then, he had secretly ambushed and severely injured the previous Gu King. That old woman had narrowly escaped death, expending all her might, but soon perished.

"Looks like that old woman intended to pass on the title of Gu King to you, the Saintess. Heh heh, isn't that a bit against the rules? You are already our Black Miao Race's esteemed Saintess, and with your current cultivation in the Gu Technique, this Seven-Colored Illusionary Moth isn't easy to refine. Saintess, hand it over obediently to me."

The Black Poison Gu King laughed darkly, eyes flashing coldly. With this Seven-Colored Illusionary Moth, his strength would grow significantly.

"Hand it over, and maybe I'll spare your life for being the Saintess of the Black Miao Race. Refuse, and you and these ants..."

The Black Poison Gu King gave Yun Luo a glance, snorting coldly.

"Black Poison, if you dare harm them, I will risk everything to self-destruct the Seven-Colored Illusionary Moth. You know its explosive power well."

Yun Luo glanced at the fallen Thunder God and others, biting her teeth, speaking icily.

At her words, Black Poison Gu King's expression froze for a moment before darkening.

"Heh heh, Saintess, you can't threaten me. Although the Seven-Colored Illusionary Moth has been cultivated for five generations of Gu Kings, its self-destructive power is indeed extraordinary. However, I have the Golden Scorpion King Heart-devouring Gu for protection. The explosion of your Moth may not take my life, and in the end, you and these ants will perish in vain."

The Black Poison Gu King said coldly.

"You...!"

Yun Luo bit her silver teeth, her face unsightly.

"Heh heh, Saintess, rest assured, how could I bear to harm them? These ants are far stronger than normal people; their soul strength must be exceptional. I need them to extract their souls, refining them for indirect immortality."

The Black Poison Gu King's eyes shone with black qi, laughing heartily.

"Soul Extraction and Essence Refining? You, you..."

Yun Luo's face turned icy white. Although she knew little about witchcraft, she understood that Soul Extraction and Essence Refining was an exceedingly cruel method.

"Ha ha ha... indeed, Saintess, you summarized it well. By transforming them all into fierce ghosts, doesn't that indirectly grant them immortality?"

The Black Poison Gu King laughed.

At this moment, around the Black Poison Gu King's body, invisible black qi seemed to surge.

"You're mad!"

Yun Luo gritted her teeth in anger.

"Saintess, there's something you might not know. The vast world actually contains countless planes, and even Earth is just one among them, mainly a small technological plane. My goal is to refine hundreds of thousands, even millions upon tens of millions of souls, to break through Earth's spatial shackles and explore other planes. Ha ha ha..."

The Black Poison Gu King stared at Yun Luo, laughing sinisterly.

Hearing this, Yun Luo's expression changed. Not only did Black Poison Gu King's words exceed her comprehension, but it was also shocking he intended to massacre even more people.

"Old fool, you sure know a lot, but it seems you're celebrating too soon."

On a tall tree, a figure stood silently, overlooking the Black Poison Gu King. A cold mocking voice called down.

The Black Poison Gu King, upon hearing this, snapped his head up. His eyes concentrated, revealing a trace of surprise that soon shifted to an icy glint, scoffing, "Heh, I didn't expect the one junior I least valued managed to escape."

Yun Luo was surprised as well, clearly not expecting him to remain unscathed while even the team leader Thunder God had fainted.

"Flying Sword Skill, Golden Sword Pierces Mystic Armor."

Qin Yang had no desire to waste words with the Black Poison Gu King. He immediately formed an intricate sword seal with his hand signs, gathering frantically the Gold Spiritual Power into the seal, creating a dazzling golden sword.

Once formed, the golden sword detached from Qin Yang's palm, growing in the wind to the size of a regular treasure sword, hovering in front of him.

Upon seeing this dazzling sword, the Black Poison Gu King's gaze sharpened, sensing a hint of danger from it.

"Heh, I did underestimate you after all."

The Black Poison Gu King sneered coldly, activating his Golden Scorpion King Heart-devouring Gu, making golden light erupt from around him, and his dark hands turned a brilliant gold.

"Go!"

Qin Yang's eyes turned cold as he pointed downward.

Whoosh!

The golden sword body shot toward the Black Poison Gu King, cutting through the air with a trail of gold, its momentum astonishing.

The Black Poison Gu King's gaze chilled as he extended his equally radiant golden hand, attempting to catch the golden sword.

However, the sharpness of the golden sword far exceeded the Black Poison Gu King's expectations. The razor-like sword sliced a gash into his hand, breaking free to dart directly toward his face.

Thud!

The Black Poison Gu King's head tilted as the golden sword grazed his cheek, carving a cut across his old face before plunging into a sturdy Poison Arrow Wood, where its gold light slowly dissipated.
