Chapter 1134: Rescue From An Encirclement
This gray h.e.l.lish-Insect from Real Pellet State looked like a giant dragonfly, about 12 meters in size. The long tail wrapped the waist and an arm of the Golden Top Peak’s burly young man. The thorns. The dense tiny barbs on the tail had penetrated the burly young man’s arm, making him bleed.
At the same time, it spouted wind blades continuously at the burly young man.
Fortunately, the burly young man emitted a faint golden light on his body. Obviously, he had a profound learning in physique technique. His waist wasn’t cut in half, and his arm was still able to crush all the incoming wind blades.
However, due to the restricted movement, under the constant collision of the surrounding black h.e.l.lish-Insects, he was soon heavily injured.
“Go away!”
The young man let out a furious roar. After a burst of crackling sounds came, his body enlarged by several meters. He launched dense fist shadows at the tail of the dragonfly, trying to smash it forcibly.
“Boom boom boom!“
The carapace at the tail of the dragonfly h.e.l.lish-Insect shattered, and fist marks appeared one by one.
The dragonfly h.e.l.lish-Insect didn’t let him go, but it tightened its long tail even more and launched more gray wind blades.
They were in a stalemate for a while.
At the same time, half of the dozens of Crystallization Period disciples were injured under the overwhelming siege of the h.e.l.lish-Insects. Although they wouldn’t fall instantly, they couldn’t break out of the encirclementat all.
A few non-physique cultivator disciples also desperately channeled spiritual weapons in their hands to defend.
But these spiritual weapons had little effect on h.e.l.lish-Insects, which had a solid carapace and could absorb spell energy. Even if they managed to kill some low rank h.e.l.lish-Insect, it didn’t have much impact on the whole battle.
When Liu Ming was watching the battle, 1 Crystallization Period non-physique cultivator disciple was attacked by several h.e.l.lish-Insects and got instantly bitten into pieces.
Seeing that the situation of these Taiqing Sect disciples was not good, Liu Ming naturally couldn’t stand idle. He slapped the octopus on his chest with a gloomy face.
A silver light flashed.
A black shadow ghostly went into the insect swarm. After a few blurs, Liu Ming appeared behind the dragonfly h.e.l.lish-Insect that was fighting with the burly young man. He launched a fierce fist wind.
With a deafening tiger roar. A ma.s.s of tiger head phantasm dashed out and bit the head of the dragonfly h.e.l.lish-Insect.
“Boom!“
Because Liu Ming’s speed was too fast and the gray dragonfly could not move freely because it was tightly wrapped around the burly young man, its head was immediately exploded by the strong fist wind.
Its tail, which was tightly wrapped around the waist of the burly youth, also loosened.
“Thank you!”
Seeing this, the burly young man was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked him. He threw the lower half of the corpse out, then he charged into the swarm.
The young man went to rescue his fellows despite suffering some injuries, which made Liu Ming feel a bit of admiration.
The silver wings fluttered, and he followed behind in a silver light.
Because the Real Pellet State h.e.l.lish-Insect was instantly killed by Liu Ming, the h.e.l.lish-Insect Clan swarm was in chaos. Strange cries were heard everywhere.
1 yellow figure and 1 silver figure shuttled back and forth in the h.e.l.lish-Insect swarm like they were unstoppable. The whistling fist winds and palm shadows sounded along with dreadful cries and explosion.
After teaming up with the Golden Top Peak’s Real Pellet State physique cultivator, they turned the tide by forcibly killing those low rank h.e.l.lish-Insects with tyrannical bodies.
Those Crystallization Period disciples were spirited after seeing the burly young man got out of the predicament, and there was a powerful reinforcement. They frantically channeled spiritual power.
In the swarm, fist shadows and light beams danced all over the sky, followed by the miserable cries of the insects.
When Liu Ming finally used the Dragon Tiger h.e.l.l Prison technique, 6 dragons and 6 tigers swept away a large group of h.e.l.lish-Insects directly. The insect swarm dispersed and ran away in the end.
Seeing this, Liu Ming did not intend to continue chasing.
From joining the battle to defeating these h.e.l.lish-Insect, it was just a dozen seconds. Some low rank disciples didn’t even know what happened before the battle ended.
“You… you are Liu Ming, Junior Fellow Apprentice Liu?” The burly young man looked at the h.e.l.lish-Insect corpses all over the place and let out a sigh of relief, then he suddenly thought of something when he turned to look at Liu Ming. He was full of surprise.
“It’s me indeed. Senior should be a disciple of the Golden Top Peak.” Liu Ming didn’t find it strange at all. He just replied with a smile.
“It really is Junior Fellow Apprentice Liu. I’m Duan Meng of the Golden Top Peak. I had a few encounters with Junior Fellow Apprentice Liu earlier, but I’m afraid junior fellow apprentice won’t remember me.” The burly young man was also quite forthright. He laughed.
As soon as they said these, the dozens of Golden Top Peakinner disciples surrounding them all looked surprised. There was a commotion for a while.
“It’s Senior Fellow Apprentice Liu ming… Has he been missing in the Evil Ghost Way for a long time?”
“He shouldn’t be missing, but he was going out to perform a special sect mission.”
“I heard that Senior Fellow Apprentice Liu’s cultivation is superb. Now that I see it with my own eyes, it is really extraordinary!”
“He is a disciple who transferred from the outer door to the inner door, and he successfully challenge the 36th with the cultivation of the Condensation Period later stage!”
“He is also the number 1 at the Upper Realm Tianmen Conference!”
These disciples discussed in a low voice. Their gaze was full of awe.
“Hehe, Junior Fellow Apprentice Liu doesn’t have to mind. Most of them are disciples who have only entered the inner door in recent years. For a legendary figure like Junior Fellow Apprentice Liu, they have long heard about it.” Duan Meng coughed lightly and spoke to Liu Ming embarra.s.sedly.
“Senior Duan has overpraised! I have left the sect for quite some years this time, and I can only return until now. Is anything happening to the sect? I rushed here from the southern wilderness. I encountered many insect swarms in the surrounding areas.” Liu Ming changed the topic after laughing.
“Speaking of this, it’s a long story. These h.e.l.lish-Insect Clan monsters often appear in these areas. Many junior fellow apprentices are already injured, so we should talk while returning.” Duan Meng said with a frown.
Of course, Liu Ming would not object.
Afterward, Duan Meng instructed the surrounding Golden Top Peak’s disciples, then he carried everyone with a white cloud and flew toward the entrance of Thousands Spirit Mountain Range.
Above the white cloud, Liu Ming listened to the words of the burly young man with a solemn expression.
“About half a year ago, in several areas near our Thousands Spirit Mountain Range, some s.p.a.ce fissures appeared without warning. Then, some low rank h.e.l.lish-Insects continued to pour out of the tunnel like a tide. Although these h.e.l.lish-Insects are numerous, their strength is low and they are very easy to kill. Our sect sent a few batches of disciples and almost eliminated them. However, these h.e.l.lish-Insects temporarily moved the battlefield to attack some mortal areas. Some are hidden…”
What he said was exactly the same as what Liu Ming heard in the southern wilderness at that time, except that the location changed from the southern wilderness to the Thousands Spirit Mountain Range.
Combined with what he saw along the way, Liu Ming couldn’t help but feel astonished.
Such a large-scale alien race invasion was really rare in the history of the Middle Sky Continent. It was definitely not something that ordinary alien race from another plane could easily do. Moreover, evem the Taiqing Sect in the middle of the Middle Sky Continent was also besieged by h.e.l.lish-Insects, so the war would be more intense in other places.
This h.e.l.lish-Insect Clan invasion probably involved the entire Middle Sky Continent!
“I came from the southern wilderness area this time, and there are also a lot of h.e.l.lish-Insects in that area. Does our sect have any countermeasures for this? Are we just allowing these swarms to linger near the Thousands Spirit Mountain? “Liu Ming asked solemnly.
“At first, for those low rank h.e.l.lish-Insects, although our sect had posted the mission to hunt down these insects on the xuan notice, it still did not attract much attention from the higher level… Sigh, now that more h.e.l.lish-Insects have appeared, we have already missed the best time to kill them…”
“A few months after the s.p.a.ce fissures appeared, a large number of high rank h.e.l.lish-Insects appeared. Especially the appearance of the Celestial State h.e.l.lish-Insect caused heavy casualties to us. It only attracted the attention of the elders by then, but it was too late. When we found the h.e.l.lish-Insect Clan army, we found that the number was already millions, and there were continuous reinforcements and other high rank h.e.l.lish-Insects coming out of the s.p.a.ce fissures.” Speaking of which, Duan Meng’s face suddenly turned gloomy.
“Celesital State h.e.l.lish-Insects? Did our sect dispatch the elders to deal with them?” Liu Ming asked with a frown.
“When our sect discovered something wrong, we immediately took emergency measures. Even the Mystic Comprehending State Grand Elder Feng Qingtai joined the war himself. He killed many high rank Celestial State h.e.l.lish-Insects at first, but when he wanted to cast mystic art to seal the s.p.a.ce fissure, he was frightened by the aura of the same level… In desperation, after some discussions between the sect master and the elders, we temporarily activated the mountain protection array and urgently summoned all disciples outside back to the sect. This time, I was ordered to personally receive a group of disciples who are returning to the sect, but as soon as we came out of the sect, we encountered this group of h.e.l.lish-Insects and almost got wiped out. Fortunately, Junior Fellow Apprentice Liu helped in time.” Having said that, Duan Meng bowed his hands to Liu Ming again, thanking him gratefully.
“Senior fellow apprentice is polite, you and I are from the same sect. It is my duty to help.” Liu Ming smiled slightly.
