In the Dead Sea, Qin Chen activated the eye of creation, perceiving the approaching Mo Li and the thousand-eyed ghost fly from a distance.
"This insect should be under the command of the emperor of underworld insects."
As he sensed the underworld insect aura on the thousand-eyed ghost fly, Qin Chen pondered. Back then, many emperors from the Underworld sent their powerful subordinates to infiltrate the Dead Sea Prison Cage. The emperor of underworld insects dispatched the Soul-Eating Underworld Insect, while the Stone Wasteland Great Emperor sent the Stone Statue Ghost Ancestor. Since both these great emperors sent someone to the Dead Sea Prison Cage, it showed their immense concern regarding it.
Thus, Qin Chen speculated that these two great emperors would leave outposts in the Dead Sea and send powerful experts to guard them.
Now, his guess had proven true.
With a thought, the Soul-Eating Underworld Insect, which was originally in the Chaotic World, appeared in front of Qin Chen.
"Master." The Soul-Eating Underworld Insect quickly bowed respectfully.
"Do you recognize this insect?"
Qin Chen manifested the figure of the thousand-eyed ghost fly in front of the Soul-Eating Underworld Insect.
"Thousand-eyed ghost fly?" The Soul-Eating Underworld Insect was taken aback and hurriedly said, "My lord, this insect is a general under the emperor of underworld insects. Its original form is a gigantic ghost fly, and its divine ability lies in its countless compound eyes. Once activated, it can perceive the truth and pull individuals into illusions, immensely amplifying a ghost cultivator's perception—it's exceedingly terrifying."
"Oh?"
Qin Chen contemplated, "Does this insect have any contingency from the emperor of underworld insects?"
"It should have." The Soul-Eating Underworld Insect answered respectfully, "This insect was greatly favored by the emperor back in the day. Although it is not as adept as me, if it has been stationed in the Dead Sea, it surely possesses some means."
A glint of brilliance flashed in Qin Chen's eyes, and he sent his spiritual sense into the Chaotic World: "Emperor of Beginning Charm, are you alright?"
"Hehehe, master, leave everything to your subordinate." The Emperor of Beginning Charm appeared seductive and charming, saying, "Dealing with the tricks left by the emperor of four extremes might be a bit of a hassle, but I assure you, I won't disappoint you when it comes to the mere emperor of underworld insects."
The Emperor of Beginning Charm puffed out her chest confidently.
Qin Chen nodded, "Then let's proceed according to plan."
Swish!
Qin Chen's figure suddenly vanished, leaving only the Soul-Eating Underworld Insect in the Dead Sea.
At that moment, Mo Li and the thousand-eyed ghost fly had already reached the sky above the Dead Sea.
"Brother Mo Li, where is he?" The thousand-eyed ghost fly looked around in confusion.
Mo Li smiled and said, "No need to worry, just follow me."
Boom!
He directly dove into the Dead Sea below.
"In the Dead Sea?"
The thousand-eyed ghost fly frowned slightly but quickly followed.
The Dead Sea was deep, and the two continued to descend.
The thousand-eyed ghost fly remained vigilant with its spiritual sense, though it was not overly anxious. It had considered that this could be a trap, but it still held a method left by the emperor of underworld insects within itself. In the event of a life-and-death crisis, the projection of the emperor of underworld insects would descend instantly, making it nearly impossible for even the judge demon king and the asura dao ancestor to easily slay it.
This was also the confidence that the thousand-eyed ghost fly had, allowing it to not fear any tricks from Mo Li.
After a moment, Mo Li led the thousand-eyed ghost fly to the seabed in an instant.
The thousand-eyed ghost fly looked around; the place was empty, with no one in sight.
"Where is he?" The thousand-eyed ghost fly furrowed its brows.
"Right here." Mo Li glanced at the empty surroundings, and his heart couldn't help but feel tense.
