Chapter 1459: Slashing Mirage and Fire Beetle

At this moment, this disgusting mirage beast was severely injured by Gu Qinghen's unreserved attack. The severe pain made it almost forget the enemy in front of it, and it kept rolling back and forth on the ground.

Gu Qinghen snorted coldly when he saw this.

This kind of stuff dared to spy on his heart and create illusions to deceive him.

He condensed his fingers with one hand, and the black sword suddenly grew ten times larger. The true essence was constantly injected into the sword, and the black sword was crushed down. At the same time, the mirage beast finally came to its senses. It screamed hoarsely, and a burst of light flashed. One mirage beast turned into five mirage beasts of the same size, appearance and breath!

And these five mirage beasts all ran away in different directions!

But the one in the middle was strangled by the black sword before it could run away because the black sword had already fallen.

The already seriously injured mirage beast experienced such a thundering blow and immediately turned into a rosy glow and dissipated.

Gu Qinghen's expression did not ease, but he looked at the other four mirage beast phantoms that escaped.

Obviously, one of these four must be real.

Gu Qinghen recalled the black sword, and the cold sword edge spun in the air and returned to his hand after a sword light. Gu Qinghen held the sword with one hand, and the index and middle fingers of his right hand were together to draw across the sword body. The thick evil spirit emanated from his body and gathered on the black sword.

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of identical black swords appeared on the left and right of the black sword. However, if you look closely, these black swords are just formed by the condensation of evil spirits, but the aura is still frightening.

The mirage beast that was fleeing for its life felt terrified at a glance!

The four mirage beasts suddenly increased their speed, but they didn't expect that at this moment, a sharp black sword whistled behind them. Under Gu Qinghen's control, the other three phantoms were instantly destroyed and pointed directly at the real body of the mirage beast. Several black swords were like a storm, not giving the mirage beast a chance to breathe and directly slashing at its vital points!

The mirage beast was surrounded by a bright glow, and the black light and the yellow glow resisted each other. For a moment, the yellow sand between heaven and earth swept the dust!

Gu Qinghen's face was grim, and he saw that he made a single-handed gesture, and many black swords suddenly merged into one!

Gu Qinghen's true essence was injected into the black sword without hesitation, striving to kill this mirage!

The mirage beast was already frightened by the thick evil spirit, and it was difficult to exert its full strength in fear, but Gu Qinghen increased the intensity of the attack at this time. After a hoarse wail, the protective aura shattered and the flesh was unable to resist and was easily killed by Gu Qinghen.

After his divine sense swept the entire mirage beast and confirmed that it was dead, Gu Qinghen breathed a sigh of relief.

Mirage beasts are timid and ugly, with huge heads and short bodies, resembling fish and beasts; their own fighting skills are not strong, and the only strange and terrifying thing is that they can create illusions, and can also peek into the hearts of cultivators, creating illusions that are more likely to make cultivators indulge in them.

He can reproduce the things that cultivators hate and cherish in their hearts, and when the cultivators are overwhelmed by anger, sadness or pleasure, they can lead the cultivators themselves into the belly of the mirage beast.

Then the unprepared cultivators will be bitten to death by the mirage beast and become the mirage beast's feast.

It's just that this thing is not common in the outside world, but because of its special magical talent, it is recorded in many books that record fierce beasts.

Considering that there are some things on the mirage beast that can be used to refine weapons, Gu Qinghen collected the body of the mirage beast separately.

The cultivators can take a part of the harvest in the Soul Seeking Tower, and the other part must be handed over to the Gu family.

As for the specific reason, it is because the contribution points for entering the tower are really not high.

After collecting the mirage beast, Gu Qinghen swept his consciousness around and found that the previous battle had slightly changed the nearby landforms. For example, under his feet, there was originally a sand dune, but now it has sunken into a large area and turned into a sand valley.

However, the wind in the desert is very strong, and it will not take long for this place to become a yellow sand plain.

After confirming that there is no abnormality and fifth-level beasts nearby, Gu Qinghen condensed the magic formula with his hands, performed the earth escape technique and escaped under the yellow sand, preparing to restore his cultivation.

Although he did not spend much effort to kill the mirage beast just now, Gu Qinghen would not despise all the fifth-level beasts in the Soul Seeking Tower.

After all, in terms of fighting strength, the mirage beast is really nothing. It is only good at creating illusions and escaping.

After spending more than an hour to recover to his peak state, Gu Qinghen continued to move eastward, continuing to look for the teleportation array leading to the upper level.

Of course, if there were any ferocious beasts provoking him or discovering any natural treasures on the way, he would not be polite.

What Gu Qinghen did not expect was that he encountered trouble again before he left the desert.

This time he encountered a beetle that looked similar to the seven-spotted ladybug, but it was much more fierce and more difficult to deal with than the seven-spotted ladybug.

A group of black and black fire-patterned beetles that covered the sky and the sun chased Gu Qinghen like mad dogs seeing meat. No matter where Gu Qinghen went, the group of fire-patterned beetles chased him to death. Seeing that the protective aura was getting thinner and thinner by these insects, the anger in Gu Qinghen's heart "whoosh" burned like fuel on a raging fire, and he saw that the sword energy was overflowing all over his body, but in an instant, he crushed the three-inch fire-patterned beetles around him into blood mud!

However, the remaining fire beetles seemed to be stimulated. They gathered together with a "buzz" sound and rushed towards Gu Qinghen with a "bang", as if they wanted to fight him to the death.

Gu Qinghen frowned. After killing another batch of insects with sword energy, it still didn't work. On the contrary, there were so many insects that it seemed that they could not be killed.

Gu Qinghen, who didn't notice the queen of these insects, was so helpless that he wanted to use his sword to escape.

However, in a flash, Gu Qinghen suddenly remembered something. He opened his mouth and a ball of gray real fire appeared in his hand.

"How could I forget this? Most insects are afraid of water and fire!"

But he didn't expect that these fire-patterned beetles didn't show any fear after seeing Gu Qinghen's real fire. Seeing this, Gu Qinghen took out a fifth-level water prison talisman and smiled slightly.

The moment the spirit talisman was activated, it was as if a huge gate was opened. Water lions jumped out one by one, and pounced on the fire-patterned beetles when they saw them. Before the fire-patterned beetles could resist, they were trapped in the round belly of the water lions.
