Chapter 146 Blockade! Fierce Battle with the Mantis Monster

Before deciding to take action, Chen Daoren suggested that he wanted to sneak into the monster's lair to investigate the situation.

Just as he was about to use the concealment spell to cover his body and walk into the lair, Chen Qingyun reached out to stop him.

"No need to bother, I'll use my spiritual sense to investigate."

Chen Daoren was stunned when he heard this, and then he scratched his head with a bitter smile. He forgot that the foundation-building cultivators have spiritual sense.

The family has not produced a strong person in the foundation-building period for so long that he forgot this.

Chen Qingyun closed his eyes, and the power of his spiritual sense extended, sweeping towards the monster's nest like a radar.

A moment later, there was a result.

As Chen Qingfeng said, there was a golden-winged monster mantis lurking here.

This monster reached the size of a person, and it looked like an enlarged version of a mantis.

The only difference was that it not only had two pairs of golden wings, but also the pair of mantis arms were extremely large, like two sickles, which made people shudder at the sight.

Chen Qingyun paid close attention and could clearly see that one of the wings of the golden-winged mantis was damaged, and most of it had been bitten off by something.

It also had several scars on its body, of varying depths, and it was obviously still in a state of injury. It was lying there motionless, slowly recovering from its injuries with its own healing power.

"It is indeed injured."

Chen Qingyun turned his attention and checked the surrounding environment.

On the edge of the pond next to it, he saw patches of purple spiritual grass, some high and some low, in the shape of perilla, looking like a purple ocean.

"It is Xuanyou grass."

After seeing the mantis and confirming the existence of Xuanyou grass, Chen Qingyun ended the investigation with satisfaction and opened his eyes.

"How is it?"

Seeing that Chen Qingyun seemed to have finished the investigation, Chen Qingfeng couldn't help but ask.

He was quite envious of this method of using spiritual consciousness to explore the environment.

"The nest was found, the golden-winged mantis is still inside, and the Xuanyou grass is also there."

Chen Qingyun reported the results of the investigation.

"The situation is just as my second brother said, there are many opportunities here."

"That's great."

Chen Qinghan was delighted when he heard this.

"Haha, you are worthy of being in the foundation-building stage. You can find out so quickly. What about the demon mantis, has its injuries recovered?"

Seeing Chen Qingyun's detection method, Chen Daoren sighed at the power of the foundation-building cultivators and said.

"If its strength has recovered, our battle will be difficult."

The golden-winged demon mantis in its prime can fight three people alone against three cultivators in the early stage of foundation-building.

Chen Qingyun has just broken through the foundation-building stage, and they don't want the family's genius to die here.

If they really feel it's difficult, they can only retreat and wait until they have the strength to come again next time.

"The demon mantis has not recovered."

A firm look flashed in Chen Qingyun's eyes.

"Don't worry, you can take action."

Even if the golden-winged demon mantis recovers its strength, he has a chance of winning if he fights alone, so there is nothing to hesitate.

"It's good that it hasn't recovered."

Chen Changfeng is ready to move.

"For safety reasons, let's discuss our strategy first and kill the golden-winged mantis as quickly as possible."

Chen Daoren acted calmly and looked at Chen Qingyun and asked, "Qingyun, you are the main force, what do you think is the safest way to attack?"

Chen Qinghan and the others also looked at Chen Qingyun.

They played an assisting role in this team, and they mainly relied on Chen Qingyun to win.

Chen Qingyun recalled the terrain in the nest, and drew a map of the nest on the ground with branches, marking the Xuanyou grass and the cave entrance area respectively.

"It's just an injured golden-winged mantis. It's not a big threat. I can deal with it."

"My only worry now is that once this monster gets angry, it will fight to the death and destroy the Xuanyou grass."

"You've got the idea."

Chen Daolin nodded and said, "Our goal this time is the Xuanyou grass. It's not necessary to kill the golden-winged mantis. When fighting, we should still take care of the more than 100 Xuanyou grasses."

"That's right."

Chen Qingyun continued, "My idea is to lure it out of the nest first, and then try to seal the nest and isolate it outside."

"This way, we can protect the Xuanyou grass and have a wider space to display our skills."

"Good idea."

As soon as this suggestion was made, Chen Daolin agreed.

"Insect monsters are afraid of fire. It just so happens that I brought the purple flame ring this time."

"When this ring is unfolded, it will be enough to cover the entrance of the nest. When a large amount of flames are released from the ring, I think the golden-winged mantis will not dare to rush in."

"I will be responsible for the task of sealing the cave entrance."

Chen Qinghan volunteered.

This purple flame ring is one of the eight magic weapons that Chen Qingyun gave to the family.

Chen Qinghan couldn't put it down, and today he could finally use it in actual combat.

"It's not enough to just block with a magic weapon. If the mantis gets anxious, it won't care about the burning of the flames."

Chen Daoren said thoughtfully.

"We need to strengthen the blockade with several layers. Why don't I cast a few more stone wall spells to block it layer by layer."

"I think it's okay."

The others also nodded in agreement and approved of this idea.

The specific matters were carefully discussed by everyone.

Finally, it was decided that after Chen Qingyun used the puppet to lead the golden-winged mantis out of the cave, they would work together to cast a spell to seal the cave entrance.

After killing the golden-winged mantis, they would act according to the situation and help Chen Qingyun together.

After resting and recovering their magic power, they started to act on the same day.

Chen Qingyun controlled the Earth Puppet to emerge from the nest. After several provocations, he successfully led the Golden Winged Mantis out of the cave, and there were bursts of buzzing sounds.

Seeing the Golden Winged Mantis appear and chase the Earth Puppet, Chen Qinghan and the other four who had been lurking around the cave entrance took action immediately.

Stone Wall Technique, Diamond Wall, Purple Flame Ring and other attacks were all performed, instantly blocking the cave entrance tightly.

Now the Golden Winged Mantis wants to turn back, but it has to spend some effort to break these blockades.

"You guard the cave entrance, and leave the rest of the battle to me."

The Earth Puppet escaped into the ground and disappeared. As soon as Chen Qingyun finished speaking, he activated the Five Elements and took the initiative to meet the Golden Winged Mantis with the Qingyan Sword in his hand.

Even if one wing was injured, the Golden Winged Mantis's speed was still amazing.

The wings vibrated at high speed, making a violent flapping sound, and it easily dodged.

Seeing the sword slashing into the air, Chen Qingyun recalled the Qingyan Sword, urged the Earth Puppet to come in front of him, took out the Sun Bow and handed it to it.

The Earth Puppet held the Sun Bow, pulled a few hundred meters away, stood on a big tree, opened the bow with a condescending attitude, and aimed at the Golden Winged Mantis.

The bow was like a full moon, and a fiery red arrow condensed and shot out in an instant.

The Golden Winged Mantis did not flap its wings to dodge, but waved its mantis arm to meet the attack head-on, and actually chopped off the flaming arrow.

At the same time, Chen Qingyun unfolded his body, threw his hand, and shot out nine flying blades, pulling out a golden stream of light to strangle the Golden Winged Mantis.

After the Golden Spirit Mother and Child Blades were strengthened, the power increased three times, causing the Golden Winged Mantis to swing its mantis arm to resist, and chopped off four sub-blades.

The remaining mother blade, four sub-blades hit its body!
