Chapter 1948: Sunlight Bug
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
After Qingfeng killed Shan Ming, he lit up his fingertips with a ray of golden flames.
The golden flame immediately caught onto Shan Ming’s corpse and burned it into ashes.
“Come, let’s leave this place and head towards the depths of the Sun Monarch Tomb.” Qingfeng led Xue Lin and the others as they walked forward.
The Sun Monarch Tomb was far too big, even though it was underground; it had a great surface area, no less small than a city of the outside world.
There were prairies, valleys, and caves inside, and there were even Palaces that stood, each place filled with great danger.
Qingfeng walked on the green prairies, marveling about how it was like the outside world, and he suddenly frowned because he noticed a red bug on the field before him. This red bug wasn’t very big, only roughly the size of one’s nail.
The Peach Blossom She-Devil’s face changed when he saw this red bug, and she said, “Be careful, this is a sunlight bug with great power. You can only find it in the Sun Monarch Tomb.”
The red bug suddenly crawled out from the gra.s.s, as it released red flames all over. The two claws before it were like iron tongs. They were incredibly sharp, as they tore cracks into the air.
The sunlight bug tore through the air as it charged towards Qingfeng.
Qingfeng lightly smiled as he stood still until the red sunlight bug arrived right before him, and then he suddenly raised his right middle finger and forefinger to heavily pinch onto the sunlight bug.
Qingfeng frowned as he closely inspected this sunlight bug, and noticed that it had eight claws like a beetle. Two of its front claws were the sharpest, with bits of spikes like steel thorns.
He lightly pressed with his right hand in attempts to kill the sunlight bug’s claws, but noticed that its claws were very sharp, such that it didn’t break when he pinched them.
The sunlight bug looked at Qingfeng mockingly with disdain in its eyes.
Screech, screech!
The sunlight bug screeched, as it spat out a ray of red flame. The red flame contained great temperature of nearly nine thousand degrees, as it immediately rushed onto Qingfeng’s hands.
Luckily, Qingfeng just refined the saint level fire essence, as his own Golden Flame had reached ten thousand degrees, and so he was able to withstand the high temperature of nine thousand degrees.
Murderous intent lit up in Qingfeng’s eyes as he said, “How dare you use flames to attack me? Since you want to die, then I’ll grant you your wish.”
Qingfeng directly activated Dragon Bone force in his right hand to unleash the suppression of G.o.dly Dragon, and immediately pressed down onto the sunlight bug with the Dragon Bone and the Dragon Scale.
With a snap sound, he broke the sunlight bug’s body into half, and the sunlight bug released a horrific sound, as it collapsed onto the ground and died.
The Peach Blossom She-Devil on the side was shocked, with hints of disbelief, and said, “Who knew, the thought-to-be-extinct sunlight bug from 5000 years ago has resurfaced.”
Qingfeng asked, “When did the demonic beast sunlight bug appear? Why is it so powerful?”
The Peach Blossom She-Devil sighed, “I’ve read an ancient novel with a description about the sunlight bug. It was the Sun Monarch’s military beast five thousand years ago, having followed the Sun Monarch into battle and killing many powerful self-cultivators.”
Legend had it that when countless sunlight bugs gathered together, they could even kill eighth level monarch level masters. After the Sun Monarch died, the sunlight bugs disappeared from the Crimson Fire Continent, but who knew that they would be in the Sun Monarch’s Tomb.
Qingfeng’s eyes grew cold, as he quietly said, “These sunlight bug must have accompanied the Sun Monarch’s burial. They’re here to protect the Tomb, but because it has met me, it is doomed.”
If other self-cultivators had met the sunlight bug, then the high temperature of its flames would have killed them, but Qingfeng was different because he could now withstand temperatures up to ten thousand degrees.
Plus his Dragon Bone power was very firm, such that a mere sunlight bug wasn’t his opponent.
Ahhhh….
Suddenly a horrific scream came from before them. The scream was very terrifying, as if someone was being burned alive.
Qingfeng’s face changed as he said, “Come, let’s walk forward and see what happened.”
Qingfeng and the others hurriedly left where they were and walked forward.
Just as they walked out a thousand meters, they noticed ten or so self-cultivators lying on the prairie floor before them, and they rolled around nonstop. They were all engulfed by red flames, as their entire bodies were burned like a ball of fire.
Suddenly, the ten or so self-cultivators turned into ashes and disappeared. No matter if it was their soul or bodies, the red flame engulfed it all.
Xue Lin’s face changed as she raised her right hand, pointed forward and said, “Oh no, look! There are ten or so sunlight bugs.”
Qingfeng looked forward and saw ten or so sunlight bugs gathered in that area. It was those sunlight bugs that had planted themselves onto those self-cultivators’ bodies, as they spat out red flame and burned all of the self-cultivators.
Qingfeng waved his hand and said, “You guys step back, don’t go near those sunlight bugs. The temperature of their flames is too high, and you guys can’t withstand it. Only I can kill them.”
“Wind-Elemental Feather Wings!” Qingfeng activated his wind-elemental wings to form green whirlwinds on his back. He immediately appeared on top of the ten or so sunlight bugs. Then he waved out his right-hand’s forefinger and pinched a sunlight bug, activating the Dragon Bone to snap it apart.
Qingfeng might have killed a sunlight bug, but there were ten or so more sunlight bugs left.
They all spat out red flames and charged at Qingfeng when they saw that their friend had been killed, in an attempt to kill Qingfeng.
Unfortunately, the red flames were futile when it landed on Qingfeng’s body, as his body absorbed all of it.
The ten or so sunlight bugs’ faces changed when they saw this because they had never encountered such a powerful self-cultivator, who was able to withstand their high-temperature red flames.
The ten or so sunlight bugs were like humans and knew their abilities. They knew of Qingfeng’s power, and that they couldn’t beat him, so they turned around to flee.
“Two thousand times gravity technique.” Qingfeng directly activated the Gravity Realm, because he couldn’t let these ten or so sunlight bugs get away. Once they did, they would attack Xue Lin, Mengyao Xu, and the others, putting them at great danger.
A ma.s.sive rush of force surfaced from below. The suction contained powerful energy, and it immediately sucked the ten or so sunlight bug onto the ground and kept them from moving.
Qingfeng walked over and unleashed the Dragon Bone’s power to snap all of the ten or so sunlight bugs’ bodies into halves.
