Chu Yunsheng’s heart was in his mouth! It was jumping rapidly!

This was the insect’s base! No matter how sharp his sword was and how powerful his sword fighting technique was, he wouldn’t be able to kill them all.

However, the monolith seemed to be more important than the strange behavior of a golden-shelled insect. All the insects only stopped less than a minute before they carried on rushing towards the riverside.

But Chu Yunsheng did not doubt that if he tried to slice open the tomb’s wall once again, they would immediately have him surrounded.

Chu Yunsheng subconsciously curled up his body inside the shell. He was trying to think of an alternative solution quickly. He could not stay here for long! He needed to move as fast as he could!

‘What should I do?’ He thought. Then he suddenly remembered that the golden-shelled insect could dig tunnels. Although he could not dig into the ground when he was inside the city, he was outside the city now. He should be able to do it!

Taking a deep breath, he started to order the golden-shelled to dig into the ground!

The way of golden-shelled insects digging tunnels was very special. The two mandibles on their oval-shaped heads were filled with fire elemental energy. Those mandibles were the main tools they used for digging. Their legs would move all the soil backwards, and their energy shields would press the soil sideways to reinforce the structure of the tunnel. Within a few minutes, the golden-shelled insect dug into the ground.

Once Chu Yunsheng got into the ground, he immediately had another idea. ‘Why not burying the bombs underneath the tombs to blow them up!’ He thought.

Just when he thought that that was a great idea, he saw many worms starting to appear around the golden-shelled insect one by one. If the golden-shelled insect did not activate its shield to the maximum, those worms probably already crawled into the gaps on the golden-shelled insect’s back!

Moreover, it seemed like there were even more worms, moving some “stuff” from the deeper places underneath the ground to the tubes underneath the tomb. Some other worms occasionally pushed the “impurities” all the way above the ground!

Chu Yunsheng’s heart instantly sank. With those worms moving stuff out, he could not plant the bombs at all!

Due to not having enough oxygen underneath the ground, Chu Yunsheng decided to get back to the ground to think of other solutions!

However, time was quickly ticking away!

The situation was getting increasingly dire, and Chu Yunsheng became more and more anxious. He used his hands to hit his head armor very hard several times, hoping that he would come up with some solutions quickly.

Suddenly, he realized that he was on the golden-shelled insect’s back. He could also seal some worms, and stuffed the bombs inside their stomachs to make “worm bombs”.

After all, they wouldn’t die instantly. They just needed to stay alive for 20 minutes until the bombs exploded.

He made up his mind instantly!

However, he did not have that many monster seal talismans. He needed to make some quickly!

As he was thinking, he quickly took out some clothes to block the gaps in between the shells, switched on a flashlight, and took out the equipment to make talismans.

Monster seal talisman would cost him a lot of Yuan Qi. Each of them would consume 45 units of Yuan Qi. He had to constantly stop making talismans, and restore Yuan Qi from his backup absorption talismans.

Maybe he was too nervous, or maybe he was rushing, he failed to make one in the beginning. But eventually, he made 3 monster seal talismans.

As soon as the three monster seal talismans were completed, he encountered another problem. After repeatedly infusing and restoring his energy beyond his body’s limit, the Yuan Qi inside his body started to lose control and flow everywhere inside his body.

It even made him spit out blood!

He gritted his teeth and forced himself to control the golden-shelled insect to crawl under the ground once again.

The worm’s defence ability and attack ability were very weak, but because of the problem inside Chu Yunsheng’s body, it still took him some time to seal three worms that failed to stay in the group.

He did not have time to use Yuan Qi to heal those worms. He just quickly stuffed the bombs into their mouths and controlled them to crawl into the places underneath the tomb.

Lack of oxygen, plus the chaotic energy inside his body made his pain persistent.

He was even struggling to take out the last two bombs and tie them onto the red-shelled insects that he had caught a long time ago.

But eventually, he still managed to make those two insects crawl into the tubes of the tomb.

He did not dare to control those insects to crawl deep into the tomb, because he did not know what was inside the tomb.

But there was one thing that he was sure of. It was that those tombs had something inside that would absorb the power of explosions.

His energy was decreasing rapidly, so he just wanted to disable those tombs!

In terms of the rest of the bombs, he had no choice but to place them underneath the tombs. He hoped that those worms would not be able to discover those bombs. But whether those worms were going to take those bombs out or not, he decided to let fate take its course.

After he planted all the bombs, he was also on the verge of collapsing!

The excessive use of Yuan Qi resulted in him losing control of the Yuan Qi inside his body. His face had already turned pale, and his body started to shake uncontrollably.

But this was not the main reason why he felt that he was on the verge of collapsing. If it was just that, he believed that he could still hold on for some time!

The real reason came from the six monsters he hid underneath the tomb. The mysterious force constantly drove those monsters to come out, so he had to use all his strength to suppress the mysterious force.

The more monsters he controlled, the more powerful the mysterious force was. It was so powerful that even if he was slightly distracted, he would lose control of all the monsters!

The intense spiritual fight and the chaotic energy inside his body caused him to bleed from his mouth, nose, eyes, and ears. He only had one thought and one belief at the moment; it was that he couldn’t die without hearing the sound of the explosions! He wanted to hear the sound of the explosions!

He hated the insect! He wanted to know if his death was worth it or not!

The golden-shelled insect followed his last order and quickly dug into the ground. It kept digging deeper and deeper…

———————————————————————————

Jin Ling city.

All the defence lines had already shrunk into a tight circle around the city. They didn’t have much time left.

“Commander, it is less than 50 seconds! He… failed…!” Qin Min looked at his watch and sighed. Originally he wanted to say that that man had probably already died, but when the words came out of his mouth, he instantly replaced it with “failed” instead.

“No! Brother Chu can do it! Think about what happened in the fog city! He can do it!” Yao Xiang shouted in disagreement. But inside his heart, he knew that this was entirely different from the fog city.

No explosions, he also did not come back!

“Sigh!…” No one knows who let out a sigh, but Fu Liaoyuan was still holding his binoculars, gazing at the other side of the river.

A few minutes later…

“Commander, it has already passed the time we agreed. Please execute !” a political commissar said with a stern expression.

He did not whisper, nor did he say it loudly. He just said it calmly as if he was just saying a contingency plan. However, all the senior officers around them were terrified when they heard it. All their faces instantly turned white, and all their lips started twitching uncontrollably!

“Please wait-” Fu Liaoyuan suddenly stopped talking.

He saw a light, a flash of light, a light that he was so familiar with, and a light that came from the other side of the river!

“Boom! Boom! Boom!…”

The violent and powerful explosions shook the ground, shook the river, and shook everyone’s hearts. Three giant tombs were blown up into the sky

The whole world suddenly became silent for a few seconds.

“He did it?” said an officer with a shivering voice. He could not believe what he had just seen.

At that moment,

All the soldiers, officers, dark warriors, refugees… all the people at the Western Defence line heard the most beautiful sound in the world.

They had been waiting for this explosion for a very long time!

So many people had tried to make this explosion happen, but they all died!

The sound of cheers instantly resounded through the Western Defence line, through Jin Ling city, and echoed in the sky!

At that moment, tears were running down Fu Liaoyuan’s face;

At that moment, Zhu Lingdie cried out loud!

At that moment, Ding Yan’s eyes turned red;

At that moment, Yao Xiang suddenly fell on his knees!

At that moment…

“Brothers… ATTACK!… ATTACK!…”

The morale of the whole Western defence force instantly increased to an unprecedented height.

But Chu Yunsheng could not hear any sound.

After the explosions, he completely lost the connections with the five insects. He even started to lose control of the last monster – the golden-shelled insect.

His consciousness seemed to be sucked into a colorful channel and “he” seemed to be “traveling” at a high speed.

“Boom!”

The channel suddenly disappeared. In front of “him” was a dark sky; it flashed mysterious red light and lightning from time to time.

Underneath “him” was a land of slimy substances; it was vast and endless!

There were many tombs spurting out blazing fire into the sky. Every one of them was bigger than the ones outside Jin Ling city.

There were many different kinds of insects crowded next to those tombs, and they all roared frantically at the sky at the same time.

He had seen some of them, but most of them, he had never seen before.

“He” was falling and falling until “he” landed on a bloody “insect’s cocoon”, then a worm-like creature broke out of its cocoon.

The creature was constantly swallowing in the planet’s “nutrition” that was brought to it by other insects. However, it didn’t seem to be satisfied. Soon, it started to eat other weak worm-like creatures…

Until it completely grew up and formed its shape – an oval-shaped head, a strong and powerful body. Then it gained some special abilities. It was able to dig into the ground and spit fire!

…Time quickly passed by…

One day, as if the world was torn apart by something, strange cracks started to appear one after another. ‘It’ followed the swarm, travelled through the gaps and arrived at a new world!

It was the “happiest” period of its life. In the new world, there were many two-legged “monsters”, and they were so weak that it could easily kill them…

It kept killing and killing…

Until one day, it was ordered to attack the “monster’s” territory, some strong “monsters” started to appear, and those “monsters” were able to injure it.

Eventually, it was almost killed by those “monsters”, and when it was dying, a “monster” used a strange thing to imprison it. Then all its memories, its consciousness all dissipated…

…Blank memories…

Until the great “Mǐn”!

Only

The consciousness was suddenly cut off here, and Chu Yunsheng suddenly woke up in a panic!

Then he was terrified when he found out that the gold-shelled insect had already come out of the tunnel and brought him towards the tombs further behind!

He was shocked, and immediately tried to strengthen the control, attempting to take back the control of the golden-shelled insect.

The golden-shelled insect’s speed started to slow down, and it seemed like that he was almost able to regain the control,

Suddenly, the mysterious powerful force arrived once again!

Chu Yunsheng was hit, and he instantly spat out blood again. Then “it” took back the control of the golden-shelled insect once again.

Chu Yunsheng clenched the monster seal talisman and once again infused Yuan Qi into the talisman, attempting to take back the control one more time!

However, within less than a second, the mysterious and powerful force once again regained control of the golden-shelled insect!
