Chapter 1960 - 1960: Blood Coffin Corpse Ghost Dragon

The Immortal Lord was about to strike the third person when he heard Wanyan Hongsheng's words, and he immediately stopped. Turning to look at Wanyan Hongsheng, he scanned him up and down, a cold smile on his lips, saying, "No need for courtesy, what can you do?""I know that our strength is so insignificant that we are less than ants before the Undying Senior. If the Undying Senior wishes to kill us, it's as easy as crushing ants." Wanyan Hongsheng looked at the Immortal Lord and said solemnly, "However, there is one person whom the Undying Senior might not be able to defeat!"

"Hahaha..." The Immortal Lord laughed aloud, coldly gazing at Wanyan Hongsheng, and said, "Even the old fellow Wuji is seen as insignificant by me. Is there anyone in this world who can be my opponent? Even if Wanyan Chengyuan were reborn, he wouldn't even be worthy of carrying my shoes."

Hearing the Immortal Lord insult his grandfather like that, Wanyan Hongsheng was also furious. He gritted his teeth and said solemnly, "Immortal Lord, you are too arrogant. Do you really think that no one in this world can defeat you?"

"If there is, let them come out and show me!" the Immortal Lord responded with a cold smile.

Wanyan Hongsheng took a deep breath and slowly turned to look at the people beside him. These people were also looking at Wanyan Hongsheng, clearly sharing the same thoughts. Without any extra words, Wanyan Hongsheng walked straight to the back.

Behind them was an open space with a coffin, holding the Corpse Ghost Dragon. When climbing the mountain, they carried this coffin without letting the Corpse Ghost Dragon out because it was in the process of merging with its body. Generally, the Wanyan Family would not easily use it. But this time, given the life and death situation of the Wanyan Family, they had no choice but to bring out the Corpse Ghost Dragon, as only it could deal with the Immortal Lord.

The Immortal Lord watched as the Wanyan Family members brought the coffin over, feeling surprised, and said, "Hey, who is in that coffin? Are you really going to show me the bones of that old fellow Wanyan Chengyuan?"

Wanyan Hongsheng took a deep breath, pressed a hand on the coffin lid, and said solemnly, "In this coffin is someone who can subdue you. Immortal Lord, you can still surrender now. Otherwise, when the person inside comes out, you won't even have a chance to escape!"

"Hahaha..." The Immortal Lord laughed maniacally again, pointing at Wanyan Hongsheng, "Are you here to make me laugh? Is this coffin holding the corpse of Buddhist and Taoist demons? How dare you speak so shamelessly to make me surrender? Hmph, even the entire Wanyan Family doesn't concern me, let alone you few juniors. To act so high and mighty before me, you're truly seeking death!"

Wanyan Hongsheng slowly pushed the coffin lid as he spoke, "If it were just a corpse in this coffin, we wouldn't be qualified to make you surrender. But the problem is, what's in this coffin is not just a corpse!"

At this point, the coffin lid was completely pushed open by Wanyan Hongsheng. He looked coldly at the Immortal Lord, enunciating each word, "What lies within this coffin is the truly invincible under the heavens, Nanyang's number one sorcerer, the Grand Master Corpse Ghost Dragon!"

Upon hearing this, the expression of the Immortal Lord changed abruptly. He widened his eyes, looking at that coffin, his face full of incredulity, and said solemnly, "Corpse Ghost Dragon? Impossible! Impossible! How could the Corpse Ghost Dragon still be alive? If he were alive now, he would be over three hundred years old. Even if his strength surpasses the acme, his lifespan could at most reach three hundred years; how could he live this long? It's absolutely impossible!"

Wanyan Hongsheng's heart skipped a beat. The realm of the Immortal Lord Corpse Ghost Dragon was a level they had never reached, almost unfathomable. Surpassing the acme has always been considered impossible. Throughout history, only a few individuals have achieved this realm. As for what this realm truly entails, only those who have reached it can truly understand. Those who haven't reached it are completely unaware. However, one thing is certain: if one can surpass the acme, their lifespan can significantly extend, just like Corpse Ghost Dragon, Shijia, Wuji, and the Immortal Lord—all are at least over two hundred years old, possessing an exceptionally long lifespan due to surpassing the acme. But whether there is a limit to this lifespan remains unknown.

Now, hearing The Immortal Lord speak like this, Wanyan Hongsheng finally understood that even if one surpasses the acme, the lifespan is still limited. It's impossible to exceed three hundred years, which is the lifespan limit of those who have surpassed the acme. In that case, it's no wonder The Immortal Lord is so shocked that the Corpse Ghost Dragon lived for more than three hundred years, as its lifespan completely exceeded the normal range.

While The Immortal Lord was loudly and excitedly roaring, a faint noise suddenly came from within the coffin. The Immortal Lord's expression changed, staring directly at the coffin, momentarily forgetting the presence of the Wanyan family's people beside him.

The noise inside the coffin grew more and more intense, and with this series of noises, suddenly, a blood-stained hand reached out from the coffin. It was clear that the bloodwater on this hand was not from blood flowing out of the arm itself but was the bloodwater staining it. As the blood hand stretched out, the thick bloodwater continued to drip down. It looked as if the coffin inside itself was filled with this kind of bloodwater, and the blood hand seemed soaked in the bloodwater, causing this situation when it came out.

The sight of this blood hand caused The Immortal Lord's expression to change once more, causing him to unconsciously step back. Although he shouted loudly that it was impossible for the person inside the coffin to be the Corpse Ghost Dragon, he was still very apprehensive in his heart. If the person inside the coffin were indeed the Corpse Ghost Dragon, he would definitely not be a match for it!

Seeing that blood hand reaching out, Wanyan Hongsheng hurriedly bowed and said, "Please, Grand Master!"

All around, the members of the Wanyan family knelt down, as the blood hand slowly grasped the edge of the coffin, gradually raising a body. The Immortal Lord saw it clearly, a short and hideously ugly man slowly sat up inside the coffin. And this man was none other than the Corpse Ghost Dragon!

"Corpse Ghost Dragon!" The Immortal Lord exclaimed, having seen the Corpse Ghost Dragon several times in his younger years and suffered a great loss under its hands, he naturally was very familiar with it. Now seeing the Corpse Ghost Dragon again, one can imagine the shock in his heart.

The Immortal Lord, sealed by Wuji at the Doomsday Sect for a hundred years, thought that after a hundred years, the Corpse Ghost Dragon would have long died, and no one in the world would be his match. Who would have thought that before even leaving Mount Duwang, he would encounter the Corpse Ghost Dragon here, causing his once-ambitious spirit to dissipate to ashes. Looking at the Corpse Ghost Dragon, he only felt despondent, as his previously arrogant and boastful attitude vanished, and he just stared blankly as the Corpse Ghost Dragon sat up from the coffin.

The Corpse Ghost Dragon stared at The Immortal Lord for a moment, as if pondering something. After a long time, he softly said, "You are The Immortal Lord, I have seen you!"

"Hmm?" The Immortal Lord was taken aback, not understanding why the Corpse Ghost Dragon would speak like this. Not only had it seen him, but they had also fought against each other, and The Immortal Lord had suffered at its hands. Yet, judging from the Corpse Ghost Dragon's appearance, it seemed somewhat unclear in its mind.

Unbeknownst to The Immortal Lord, the Corpse Ghost Dragon had been controlled by the Wanyan family using the Heart Demon Technique. When his body and clone were merging, they planted a heart demon in his mind, thus successfully controlling the Corpse Ghost Dragon. The Corpse Ghost Dragon had resisted, but could not overcome the Heart Demon Technique and was completely controlled by the Wanyan family. Of course, the Heart Demon Technique also has side effects; while controlling one's mind, it gradually causes a loss of consciousness, which is the Corpse Ghost Dragon's current state. With the control of the Heart Demon Technique, he will gradually forget everything from before, eventually becoming completely a tool of the Wanyan family and losing himself entirely. In the end, once he is fully under the control of the Heart Demon Technique, there will be no more Corpse Ghost Dragon in this world. This once invincible expert, who controlled so many people as his puppets, ultimately became someone else's puppet due to karmic retribution!

The last time the Corpse Ghost Dragon was struck by the power of the Buddha's Relic used by Ye Qing, his body was shattered. Although the Wanyan family saved him, completely restoring his body to its former state was not an easy task. During this time, the Wanyan family has been using the bloodwater to nourish the Corpse Ghost Dragon's body. The human-shaped gu he practiced, similar to the human-shaped gu of White-haired Ding San, also needs human blood to nourish the body and enhance strength. Soaking in the bloodwater, the Corpse Ghost Dragon is gradually regaining his strength. Because of this matter, the Wanyan family has committed quite a few killings, as fresh blood must be infused into the coffin daily, requiring killings every day to satisfy the needs of the Corpse Ghost Dragon.

Seeing The Immortal Lord's shocked expression, Wanyan Hongsheng knew he was intimidated by the Corpse Ghost Dragon. This is understandable; even at The Immortal Lord's peak, it was when the Corpse Ghost Dragon was world-renowned. The Corpse Ghost Dragon's prowess was known to everyone, and even The Immortal Lord was extremely apprehensive of him. Now encountering the Corpse Ghost Dragon once more, the alarm in his heart is imaginable.

"The Immortal Lord, our Wanyan family does not wish to be your enemy. The Grand Master is working for our Wanyan family now because we are the most likely force to enter the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates and acquire the Taoist Sect's Secret Method of Life Extension!" Wanyan Hongsheng looked at The Immortal Lord and said, "If the Undying Senior is willing, like Corpse Ghost Dragon Grand Master, to assist our Wanyan family, I assure you, once we enter the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates and acquire the Taoist Sect's method of life extension, we will definitely help the Undying Senior extend life. Moreover, I see the Undying Senior's Inner Strength is also greatly exhausted; it is not easy to restore strength quickly. If the Undying Senior is willing to help our Wanyan family, we will certainly assist in restoring your strength!"
