Chapter 421
Chapter 421
The flying worm didn’t seem to expect Xu Ziyan to make a sudden move, and was hit by several arrows being unprepared.
But before Xu Ziyan got excited, the flying insect screamed furiously and pulled out the arrows from its thick carapace. Except for some charcoal black stain caused by the Purple Night Divine Thunder, he wasn’t injured at all!
“Oh shxt!” Xu Ziyan secretly felt worried. He saw the huge flying insect rushing towards them as if it was enraged.
Xu Ziyan quickly dodged, while Xu Zirong took advantage of this opportunity and spawned several large trees to block his brother’s way.
The trees he spawned were specially cultivated plants and had no ability to attack, but they had unique special effects in terms of defense.
In just a few breaths, these dozens of large trees as thick as water tanks were all broken by the flying insects. The opponent’s physical power was really amazing, far exceeding the level of a deity cultivator!
“Don’t let him get close to you!” Xu Zirong reminded quickly.
Xu Ziyan broke out in a cold sweat. Needless to say, Xu Zirong knew that he must not let the flying insect get close. The threat that the opponent’s huge size posed was already obvious, and since he could break down so many defensive trees with brute force, it made perfect sense that he acted with vigilance.
He had studied those big trees while watching Xu Zirong, and he also helped test their endurance. He admitted that his body was definitely not as hard as those trees. If those big trees were shattered into pieces, he would end up in a similar state.
The flying insect was extremely fast. Xu Ziyan turned around in a hurry and barely escaped from the insect’s claws. However, one of them still managed to scratch his back, and blood immediately started dripping.
Xu Zirong’s expression changed drastically, his aura suddenly surged, his eyes flashed red, and several huge vines struck the flying insect hard like whips, without causing any harm to it.
The flying insect ignored these vines and focused on Xu Ziyan who interrupted its meal.
But those tree vines were not withdraw after they finished attacking. Instead, they stuck to the flying insect and tied it tightly.
If the hard trick didn’t work, then better use the softer one. Xu Zirong had long accustomed in using this trick on his brother…
Those tree vines were pliable and elastic, tightly wrapped around the flying insect, making its movements extremely difficult, and seemed to be quite effective.
But Xu Ziyan’s smile froze on his face before it even showed.
_(:3∠)_What a trap! Shouldn’t the flying insects be trapped at this time and stumble to the ground? What do you mean by turning the arthropods and cutting the vines?! How come you liked to act so randomly ?
Perhaps this flying insect also absorbed the intelligence of other blood-sucking worms, as Xu Ziyan did not notice any clumsy behaviour from it.
Logically, huge things tend to be more inflexible in terms of movement. This is why Xu Zirong only used tree vines. However, this flying insect did not follow the rules and was actually extremely dexterous for such a large body. What’s worse? Several of its jointed limbs seemed to be equipped with rollers and could rotate 360 degrees without any dead ends, which is simply amazing!
Of course, at this time, Xu Ziyan had no chance to appreciate the excellence of this flying insect. After cutting off the tree vine, the flying insect seemed to blame Xu Ziyan for its emergence, and it looked even more fierce and it got even faster…
Xu Ziyan ran as fast as he could with a grimace. He dared not control Aurora in the woods, but if he came out of the woods, he might be attacked by those demons.
Things got worse, as they were still in the area controlled by the demons. If they didn’t leave as soon as possible, God knows how many demons would rush out and attack them…
He was already very unhappy after being besieged by worms. If so many demons came again, he and Xu Zirong could be exhausted to death just by the number of low-level demons, even if there were no high-level cultivators.
“Be careful!” Xu Zirong exclaimed.
The flying insect was chasing after Xu Ziyan. Although it was fast, due to its size, it would always bump into some branches. Although these branches could not cause any harm, they actually delayed its speed.
The flying insect had limited patience. After chasing for a while but failing to catch Xu Ziyan, it suddenly opened its mouth and a slender black shadow popped out and shot straight into Xu Ziyan’s back.
Xu Ziyan got Xu Zirong’s reminder and quickly rolled on the spot.
However, the black shadow that popped up was too fast, Xu Ziyan could only barely avoid the fatal spot, but the black shadow already penetrated his shoulder.
“Brother!” Xu Zirong roared angrily, and suddenly transformed into a sea of blood, sucking in all the blood-sucking insects in front of him. Then the sea of blood surged and boiled, and suddenly rolled towards Xu Ziyan.
“Ugh!” Xu Ziyan cried out in pain, his right shoulder was stabbed across, and blood vigorously gushed out. His face turned pale, but his steps were still in order. When he saw Xu Zirong rushing towards him, he rushed forward and entered Xu Zirong’s sea of blood at once.
“Hey!——”
Seeing its prey being sucked into the fishy sea of blood, the worm immediately let out an angry howl. It opened its wings and rushed over like a bulldozer without caring anything else.
Although he was in a sea of blood, Xu Ziyan could still see what’s going on outside, and his face turned pale when he saw this.
His shoulder had been bleeding just after being ‘shot’ by the thing that popped out of the flying insect’s mouth. Xu Ziyan assumed that it was probably a tongue-like thing, otherwise there was no way to explain why it could retract after penetrating his shoulder.
Moreover, this flying insect seemed to have turned on the vampire skill, and it could actually secrete from the tongue that prevented wound from healing. Otherwise, Xu Ziyan would not look so pale pale due to excessive blood loss.
“It’s really a scam. How could there be such a thing?” Xu Ziyan muttered with a depressed look on his face.
He thought that he was not too bad in terms of strength, and he had a lot of experience fighting against worms. However, when facing such a worm with a huge size, flexible body, and many unexplored skills, he really had a headache.
“Do you want to escape?” Xu Zirong had no intention of fighting to the end.
The reason why he set up an ambush there at first was mainly because he wanted to get rid of anyone following them. But now he knew that the pursuers were so powerful, escaping turned out to be the best method. After all, the supplies his brother transported had been put away in Mr. Little Square, those stuff would be safe if they managed to get away.
“I’m afraid I won’t be able to escape.” Xu Ziyan took another pill and finally cleared away the toxins accumulated in his body. The wound on his shoulder began to heal slowly, and he finally looked a bit more normal.
“The black-robed demon hasn’t taken action yet.” Xu Ziyan looked at the black-robed demon in the distance and suddenly realized another problem.
A big worm alone made him run away in panic. If he ‘created’ some black mist and made a big worm evolve, things would become even more troublesome.
Of course, Xu Ziyan could also see that there must be very strict conditions for evolving such a big worm. This could be proved by those dead blood-sucking worms.
When Xu Ziyan was escaping, he made sure to observe the burrow dug by the blood-sucking worm. It was obvious that there were still many of them emerging from the burrow, but more than 90% of them were shadow worms of the lowest level.
Those advanced mantises and six-winged flying insects were almost gone, and they all seemed to have become the food of that flying insect.
Shadow worms could be spawned without limit as long as there were corpses, but those high-level blood-sucking worms were all accumulated bit by bit by the blood-sucking worm mother.
Seeing the current situation, Xu Ziyan was sure that the number of high-level insects that this black-robed demon could control was limited, otherwise the opponent would never hesitate to pile them to death with insects.
“So…he didn’t control the female insect.” Xu Ziyan muttered to himself.
“What?” Xu Zirong didn’t understand why his brother suddenly said such a thing.
“Nothing.” Xu Ziyan waved his hand, “I was speculating whether that person would ‘get’ another big worm. But it looks like it will be difficult. He doesn’t even have many high-level blood-sucking ones left.”
Xu Zirong nodded, then realized that he could not nod in the blood sea.
“I think brother’s right.”
“Yes, but what’s the use? I can’t even deal with this insect.” Xu Ziyan smiled bitterly.
“I’ll try!” Xu Zirong no longer took his brother around in circles in the woods, but instead he shared a bit of experience and sent his brother farther away.
Xu Ziyan jumped onto a big tree, killing the blood-sucking insects that were still popping up, while paying attention to Xu Zirong’s battle.
When facing this kind of clever, big and thick insect, Xu Zirong’s Blood Sea Heart Sutra was still very powerful.
A stream of red liquid enveloped the big insect one by one, and under the action of the Blood Sea Heart Sutra, it continuously corroded the body of the flying insect.
One minute later…
The corner of Xu Ziyan’s mouth twitched as he looked at the red chicken egg. No, it was a big insect wrapped in a sea of blood. It was still stumbling around inside, and he simply didn’t know what kind of expression he should put on.
The Blood Sea Heart Sutra had unbeatable defense power. After transforming into a sea of blood, the flying insect was unable to cause any physical attack on Xu Zirong.
But the problem was – Xu Zirong then couldn’t do any harm to it either…
The insect’s outer carapace was so strong that it couldn’t even be inserted with a needle. Xu Zirong’s Blood Sea Heart Sutra usually could be used to corrode a lot of stuff, but when it applied to this worm, it only left a few small round dots on its carapace.
Xu Ziyan:_(:3∠)_
It’s simply hopeless!
As a last resort, Xu Ziyan could only consider escaping. Although it was embarrassing to do so, it was more cost-effective than losing his life.
He had only one question left – judging from the way the demon was staring at Zirong and mouthwatering, would it still be possible to escape easily?
The answer:
…
…
——It’s absolutely not possible !
