Chapter 1812: Endless Lord of Plagues

“What... What the hell are these things?!”

Xiahou Zun, Princess Furi and more turned as white as a sheet as they backed off from the trees while covering up their mouths and nose.

The Dragon Subjugating Zen Master wore a serious expression as he clasped his hands together and chanted, “Amitabha, the flesh of this place contains the terrifying power of plagues. This poor monk believes that this is where the Endless Lord of Plagues is sealed.”

The Old Heavenly Master stroked his beard and eyed his surroundings sharply. “From the looks of it, the Endless Lord of Plagues might have successfully broken through part of the Earthly Sovereign’s seal.”

“That just means we’re right on time.” The Chief Libationist’s eyes flashed, but there was no fear on his face. On the contrary, he looked excited, and the corners of his lips were curled up slightly into a smirk.

Ye Qing did not say anything and simply watched the scene before his eyes quietly. He could feel the Earthly Sovereign Bell vibrating stronger and stronger, and it was pointed straight at the bottom of this flesh forest.

Ye Qing sucked in a deep breath and sounded the Earthly Sovereign Bell once more.

Buzz—!

Another grand chime resounded throughout the air, and it was louder and more potent than before. It sounded like it would shatter the filth of this place to shreds.

At the same time, dark yellow light burst out like the sun and burned away the entire flesh forest in an instant.

Purified by the dark yellow light, the rotten flesh and blood melted away like snow and swiftly disintegrated into nothing.

The smelly push water had also evaporated without a trace.

In just the blink of an eye, the revolting flesh forest had disappeared completely, revealing the barren and desolate desert underneath it.

After the fake vitality of the oasis was stripped away, all that was left behind was dead, lifeless sand. It was as if the oasis had never existed.

“The Earthly Sovereign Bell?”

The second after the flesh forest had melted away completely, a furious and hateful roar abruptly erupted from the underground.

The next moment, the entire ground began shaking violently. Yellow sand flew up into the sky like a tidal wave and quickly turned into a sandstorm that blotted out heaven and earth.

The ground began breaking apart as many gigantic cracks spread across the surface like spider webs. They looked terrifying.

Deep within the cracks, even thicker and smellier rotten flesh and pus burst out to the surface like the flood of a broken dam.

The rotten flesh writhed and twisted until they formed many ugly and horrifying human faces. They were packed all across the cracked ground.

The pus water and blood on the human faces eventually gathered into many eyeballs that glared hatefully at Ye Qing and his group of Sages.

There was endless hatred and bloodthirst in the eyes and faces. They only wished they could rip the group to shreds with their gazes alone.

“The Earthly Sovereign Bell... It’s you, Earthly Sovereign! It’s you!”

“I’ll kill you!”

“I’ll kill you!!!”

A deafening roar full of anger, madness and hatred impacted everyone’s mind.

At the same time, a giant mouth composed of countless pieces of rotten flesh opened in the underground. It looked like an abyss that would consume everything.

Boom—!

The next moment, a stream of smelly, sticky flesh gushed out of the giant maw and spread across the entire sky.

The stream of flesh and blood was mixed with the suffocating power of plagues and the tainted stench of decay. It all surged toward the Sages.

“What a coincidence...” The corners of Ye Qing’s lips curled slightly into a cold smile. “I have come to kill you too.”

Even before he finished, the Earthly Sovereign Bell was already rising up to meet the stream.

Bell chimes and dark yellow light washed out like angry waves and clashed against smelly gore. The ensuing clash resulted in a sizzling noise that sounded like nails on a chalkboard.

The Chief Libationist’s robe flapped loudly as righteous qi turned into swords and hacked rotten flesh to pieces.

The Old Heavenly Master waved his horsetail whisk and summoned golden talismans that transformed into fire dragons and burned it all to dust.

Buddhist beads spun circles in the Dragon Subjugating Zen Master’s palm as golden light and Buddhist seals pressed down on the gore, and Brahma sounds purified all the evils.

Haotian Hong let out a roar as the Clear Sky Mirror hung in the sky like the sun and purified all filth and corruption with its holy light.

Xuanyuan Wang ripped apart the curtains of blood with the deadly and voluminous sword qi of the Xuanyuan Sword.

Everyone was unleashing their power and destroying the streams of gore and pus water pouring endlessly out of the cracks on the ground.

However, more rotten flesh and blood were pouring out of the underground by the second. It was as if they were endless.

Not only that, the power of plague, filth and corruption permeating the air was only growing thicker and stronger the more rotten flesh they destroyed. They were also clingy like maggots that were firmly stuck in one’s bones.

What was once a bright, clear sky was now painted in oppressive dark yellow. It looked like a giant, rotten scar was covering their heads.

The air was filled with a suffocating stench that existed everywhere and penetrated every pore. It constantly ate away at their willpower, mind and body.

Even Sages like them felt indescribably uncomfortable fighting inside this power of plagues. It felt as if they were fighting in a swamp where every step was a burden.

This was especially true for weaker Sages such as Xiahou Zun, Long-browed Divine Monk, Princess Furi and more.

Their bodies kept growing weaker and weaker. They felt as if all sorts of illnesses were taking root inside their bodies. Every organ inside their body were groaning in pain, every part of their body was sore and hurt, and even their true qi was flowing sluggishly. They felt dizzy and almost nauseous.

Ye Qing was no different. He felt an indescribable weight pressing down on his heart. He felt as if countless rotten hands were grabbing his flesh and blood tightly and ripping away at his soul.

“Kekekeke...”

The Endless Lord of Plagues’ malicious, eerie voice came from the underground, and it was full of ridicule and delight, “You are weak! You are not the Earthly Sovereign, not the Earthly Sovereign after all! And here I thought the old bastard had arrived himself. To think it was a fake! How laughable... laughable...”

Face pale and aura seemingly unsteady, Ye Qing replied in a cold voice, “I never said that I am the Earthly Sovereign. I am his disciple.”

“The Earthly Sovereign’s disciple?” The Endless Lord of Plagues laughed scornfully and disdainfully, “And what garbage you are! I did not think the old bastard would be so scared as to send a worthless piece of trash like you to kill himself!”

Ye Qing yelled, “Don’t be too happy! This fight isn’t over until it’s over!”

“You lot, catch some rest and leave the rest to us.”

Noticing that everyone’s condition was getting worse, he decisively made a call and waved his sleeve. A gust of righteous qi swept away the surrounding plague and corruption and wrapped around Ye Qing, Xiahou Zun, and other lower level Sages. It then carried them out of the range of the plague of rotten flesh.
