Chapter 420

“How many of these worms are there?” The controlling blood-sucking worms were very weak, so they usually hid among other worms to carry out sneak attacks. After Xu Ziyan discovered their existence, he could simply use Xu Zirong’s sense of the forest to kill them all.

“It’s all solved.” Xu Zirong gasped slightly. Most of these controlling blood-sucking worms were distributed at the roots of trees and seemed to emerge from the ground. After Xu Zirong saw that his brother had solved the crisis, he immediately killed all the blood-sucking worms that he could sense.

“Be careful. I still feel a little uneasy. That person seems too calm. He might have some tactics as backup.” Xu Ziyan couldn’t say too much to Xu Zirong. Since they were surrounded by so many worms, they just needed to continue fighting if they didn’t want to be besieged completely.

Xu Zirong nodded and quickly returned to his battlefield. He came over just now because he was too worried. After making sure that he’s fine, the imminent risk would be the demon in black robe!

The two brothers fought in the woods. As the blood-sucking worms gnawed and the black mist corroded, the area of the woods became smaller, and there was less and less space for the two to move.

The black-robed demon stood quietly outside the woods, sneering at the two men’s “last struggle” and said, “come on, let me play a little longer.”

“Master Fengdu.” The big-nosed demon suddenly sniffed, as if he’d smelled something, and then lowered his voice and whispered something in Fengdu’s ear.

Fengdu raised his eyebrows and rubbed his fingers playfully, “a lot is happening today.”

The demon with a big nose silently took a few steps back, looked both ways and ran towards the two bone-spur wing demons.

Among these people, he had the lowest level of cultivation. Let alone a sneak attack, even the aftermath of a battle between two nascent soul cultivators could kill him.

It is absolutely impossible to expect to be protected by master Fengdu, the demon with a big nose clearly depended on his flattering skills for his survival.

The two bone-spiked winged demons still attached great importance to the one with a big nose. After all, there were not many demons of this type anymore, and they might ask him for help next time they went on a mission, so they had no objection about protecting him.

The demon with a big nose squatted obediently between the two bone-spiked winged demons, but he still couldn’t stop shivering. He just smelled a very special smell, which was somewhat different from that of human cultivators. The smell alone already made the demon with a big nose shiver.

Unfortunately, master Fengdu didn’t seem to care about how strong his opponent was, which made sense, as he wasn’t worried about beating a nascent soul cultivator at all.

With master Fengdu’s strength, killing several nascent soul cultivators was an easy task. However, for some unknown reasons, the demon with a big nose found the slightly faint smell extremely terrifying…

Fengdu took two steps forward, looked at Xu Ziyan and Xu Ziyan who were entangled with worms in the woods, and smiled coldly, “I can see that you like being punished more! In that case, I will make your dream come true!” He licked his lips and there was a terrifying light under his gaze. “Let me test the effects of a body of a nascent soul…”

As he spoke, the attack of the worms in the woods instantly increased to a higher level.

The worms that emerged from the cave were biting everything he saw, but Xu Ziyan felt that they hadn’t exerted all their combat power.

It’s not to say that Xu Ziyan liked to be abused so much that he’d feel uncomfortable if the enemy wasn’t strong enough, it’s that he’s already so used to the group attack of worms and he didn’t care about the current intensity at all.

In fact, if there weren’t too many worms, he could as well kill them all with eyes closed.

“Brother…” Xu Zirong’s thoughts was sent from the blood contract.

“What?” Xu Ziyan’s heart moved, thinking that Xu Zirong was in some danger, so he moved towards him without leaving any trace.

“Brother must have noticed something wrong with these worms.”

“Yes.” Xu Ziyan nodded. Whether it was a shadow worm of the lowest level or a six-winged flying one of the highest level, their biggest advantage was that they could cooperate perfectly.

After all, these low-level worms had limited intelligence, and they were all commanded by the worm mother before their evolution.

It’s just like these low-level worms had no brains and all were commanded with the consent of the worm mother. Similarly, one could infer that all worms shared one brain and it explained the cause of their flawless cooperation.

The worm with the big eye that joined later had a task more like a think tank – he was only responsible in commanding, but the actual mobilization had to be done by the worm mother.

Xu Ziyan didn’t know how the black-robed demon controlled these low-level worms. It was not easy to do this. When blood-sucking worms were raging in the Xuan Yu realm, the people of the Cultivators’ Alliance also caught a lot of worms and studied them. However, no matter how they tried, they could only use some spells to control one or two at most. On the contrary, he’d never heard of someone like the black-robed demon to control such a large amount of worms.

What people didn’t understand was that since the other party could control so many blood-sucking worms, then how could he not let them cooperate well?

According to Xu Ziyan’s understanding, this person who could control so many worms must have found a way to replace the status of the mother worm. But since he’d already achieved so, how come he still couldn’t control all the worms?

“These worms are not something to be afraid of. Except for those that controlled people, other worms would not pose a threat to us, but you have to be careful. I think that person still has some unused tactics.” Xu Ziyan sent his thoughts over and Xu Zirong showed that he understood.

The two men kept moving their hands. They worked in perfect harmony and simultaneously slowed down their attacks.

The worms were endless. If too much spiritual energy was consumed while killing them, there would be more problems once the black-robed demon came up with some powerful tactics.

Fengdu stood outside the woods without moving, while the Xu brothers kept killing the worms in the woods.

The remaining three winged demons (one with a big nose) stood not far away watching the battle, and seemed to have no intention to participate.

Just when both sides thought that this stalemate would last for a while, there was a sudden change!

Fengdu suddenly waved his poisonous hands, and the black mist that was originally entangled with the blood mist exploded instantly, covering a large area of blood-sucking worms.

“Hiss!”

The insect swarm let out a shrill wail. The worms that were sucked in didn’t know what happened to them. They kept whining, yet they survived.

Xu Ziyan had been paying close attention to Fengdu. When he saw this, he quickly dodged and retreated to Xu Zirong’s side. Fengdu’s move was really surprising. He always felt that his sudden outburst not only failed to harm Xu Ziyan and the others. Instead, he got rid of a lot of blood-sucking worms for them.

As the sound of wailing weakened, the black mist began to gradually dissipate. Xu Ziyan stared at the center of mist, only to feel that there was a big shadow somewhere.

Phew——!

A scream suddenly came from the black mist, and Xu Ziyan felt dizzy. And it turned out to be a sonic attack!

A wave visible to the naked eye spread out like ripples with the black mist as the center. Wherever it went, trees withered and worms swarmed. It was an attack that made no distinction between friend and foe.

No!

The attack itself was directed at the living blood-sucking worms. The plants and Xu Ziyan were just victims that happened to be at the scene!

“Is this…” Xu Ziyan stared blankly at the outline gradually emerging from the black mist, and he felt shocked beyond any expression.

That’s a huge flying insect!

From the outside it looked like a much enlarged version of a six-winged flying insect!

However, the breath emanating from this flying worm was extremely powerful, and even Xu Ziyan didn’t feel confident fighting against it.

The flying insect slowly walked out of the black mist. Every time it took a step, the corpses of the blood-sucking insects under its feet would be dissolved by the black mist around him and then sucked into its body.

This strange insect created by the black mist was obviously feeding on its own kind, and it actually sent the sonic attack just now.

“A deity…?” Xu Ziyan’s heart trembled, but then he realized that something didn’t make sense.

Although the flying insect was huge and had a strong aura, it’s not qualified to be a deity yet, at least not now!

“It’s a pity…” Fengdu looked at the insect coming out of the black mist and sighed, “Sure enough, we still can’t break through…”

Then his tone changed, and the look in Xu Zirong’s eyes became extremely fanatical, “it doesn’t matter, as long as I get that kid, I will definitely succeed! Haha…those who practice the Blood Sea Heart Sutra…they’re actually quite easy to get!”

He stared at Xu Zirong with a hunter-like look that made Xu Zirong extremely uncomfortable.

He looked back coldly, with no expression on his delicate and beautiful face, only a cold and murderous intent!

He stretched out his hand towards the black-robed demon and made a motion of slitting his throat.

Unexpectedly, the black-robed demon laughed wildly, “I didn’t expect it! That little bitch escaped so fast back then, and I couldn’t taste his body. That’s why I became the way I am. I didn’t expect such a nice and rare opportunity!”

He licked the corners of his mouth hungrily, looking forward to what was going to happen next.

The flying insect forcibly evolved by the black mist seemed to be interested in the corpses of its own kind. In addition to the corpses shattered by the sound waves, it also continued to attack the remaining six-winged flying insects with its arthropods.

As those six-winged flying insects were absorbed one by one, the aura on its body became increasingly powerful.

Xu Ziyan gritted his teeth and couldn’t let him absorb anymore. Now it was infinitely close to becoming a deity. If it continued to evolve like this, some kind of monster might be created!

“Do it!” Xu Ziyan shouted, and the thunder arrows in his hand shot out like raindrops towards the flying insects.
