#608 - Fruit trees in hand
As Su Chen continued to activate the Xuantian artifact, one after another, Devouring Ghost Insects rushed over from the canyon, their buzzing incessant and overwhelming.
Although most of the Devouring Ghost Insects had been taken away by Kong Yang and the others, there were still about twenty thousand left in the canyon, a considerable number.
The densely packed Devouring Ghost Insects pounced, enough to make one's scalp tingle.
Clang—
Ying swiftly waved the red scimitar in her hand, slashing out a series of sharp blades of light, like blood-colored lightning spreading, and felling one Devouring Ghost Insect after another, an astonishing sight.
Boom!
At the same time, Qiao Yun let out a soft shout, the bright red Divine Phoenix mark on her forehead glowing, and purple flames began to ignite around her body, then burst out with a roar, transforming into a raging sea of fire.
This was precisely the Heaven-Ranked Strange Fire, Purple Star Flame, that she had subdued earlier.
Qiao Yun's cultivation was insufficient, and she couldn't fully control the Purple Star Flame, unable to unleash its full power.
But even so, the power of the Purple Star Flame was extremely terrifying, the fire soaring to the sky, accompanied by terrifying high temperatures, incinerating swathes of Devouring Ghost Insects, which emitted shrill howls as they fell like crackling embers.
Ordinary attacks were difficult to harm the Devouring Ghost Insects, but the power of flames had a restraining effect on insectoids.
Especially Heaven-Ranked Strange Fire, its power was extraordinary.
Qing Ling and Gu Ruoxi and the others were not to be outdone, and they activated their magical treasures one after another to resist the incoming Devouring Ghost Insects.
Their cultivation was not high, but they had a large number of Heaven-Ranked magical treasures, and various powers erupted, rumbling like a surging river, turbulent and surging.
The attacks they launched might be difficult to kill the Devouring Ghost Insects, but they could still block their offensive.
Ying's attacks were much more terrifying.
Every slash was sure to cleave and kill a large number of Devouring Ghost Insects, incomparably sharp, with a monstrously fierce aura.
However.
As Ying continued to wield her blade, the blood light in her eyes became increasingly intense, and a terrifying killing intent swept in all directions, spreading indiscriminately, causing Qing Ling and the others to tense up.
Clang!
Ying suddenly sheathed her blade, closed her eyes, gasped for breath, and the aura around her body fluctuated violently, very unstable.
After a moment, the killing intent on her body gradually subsided.
The power of the blood-colored scimitar in her hand was too strong, and Ying couldn't use it for a long time, otherwise her own mind would be affected, turning her into a killing machine.
"Senior Sister, use this."
Qing Ling took out a Heaven-Ranked magical treasure and handed it to her, a piece of blood-stained black scale armor.
This was precisely what Senior Brother Wu Shan had given to Su Chen, who in turn gave it to Qing Ling.
Because Su Chen had too many Heaven-Ranked magical treasures and couldn't use them all.
Ying nodded, took the black scale armor, and the powerful cultivation of an Origin God Realm Eighth Level cultivator erupted, pouring spiritual power into it and activating it with all her might.
"Roar!!"
In the next moment, the black scale armor bloomed with light, transforming into a huge Black Armor Scaled Turtle phantom, roaring with its head raised, guarding everyone below.
One Devouring Ghost Insect after another clung to the Black Armor Scaled Turtle phantom and began to gnaw.
Qing Ling and Ying and the others did their best to resist the attacks of the Devouring Ghost Insects, while Su Chen fully activated the Xuantian artifact, continuously cutting the Enlightenment Fruit Tree, depleting its Heaven and Earth Dao rhythm.
This process lasted for a full half an hour.
"Not good!"
"The Devouring Ghost Insect King is back!"
Ying suddenly raised her head, her keen intuition sensing an anomaly, and from a great distance, she saw a black dot rushing over like lightning.
Even Ying, as strong as she was, felt a chill in her heart at this moment, and a strong sense of crisis arose.
The only thing that could make her feel a sense of crisis was the Devouring Ghost Insect King!
"Stop it!"
Without turning his head, Su Chen pointed out a finger, and the Heavenly Yang Divine Light Bell swelled against the wind, transforming into a golden bell, carrying a magnificent aura, like a small mountain, enveloping everyone.
"Jie!!"
Seeing its nest and precious fruit tree being touched by this group of humans, the Devouring Ghost Insect King couldn't bear it any longer, and let out an angry roar, its body surrounded by black mist, pouncing fiercely and crashing into the Heavenly Yang Divine Light Bell.
Dang—
Accompanied by the heavy and long sound of the bell echoing, the Heavenly Yang Divine Light Bell trembled, but it was not damaged and remained motionless.
Ying and Qing Ling and the others immediately put away their magical treasures and instead poured the power of their whole bodies into the Heavenly Yang Divine Light Bell, causing the Heavenly Yang Divine Light Bell to explode with even stronger power.
The Devouring Ghost Insect King's eyes revealed a fierce light, and it directly lay on the Heavenly Yang Divine Light Bell and took a bite!
Crack!
The Devouring Ghost Insect King's body stiffened, and it slowly opened its sharp mandibles, its eyes showing a trace of confusion.
It could be seen that the Devouring Ghost Insect King had a pair of ferocious and terrifying mandibles, like a pair of pliers, and two rows of dense, sharp teeth.
But when it bit down on the Heavenly Yang Divine Light Bell, its mandibles were forcibly shaken out of a subtle crack, and many of its teeth were loosened, almost breaking its mouth.
The Heavenly Yang Divine Light Bell was too hard!
Although its grade had fallen to the Divine level, the material of the Heavenly Yang Divine Light Bell was still Divine-level material, and its hardness was not inferior to that of ordinary Divine-level treasures, which the Devouring Ghost Insect King could not gnaw off.
It immediately let out an angry roar, its body surrounded by black light, angrily hitting the Heavenly Yang Divine Light Bell, and the violent and terrifying power shook the Heavenly Yang Divine Light Bell violently.
Qing Ling and Ying and the others were under terrible pressure.
But they did not retreat, but continued to grit their teeth and persevere, pouring their own strength into the Heavenly Yang Divine Light Bell to resist the attacks of the Devouring Ghost Insect King.
Time passed little by little.
A quarter of an hour later, Su Chen's eyes suddenly flashed with brilliance!
"Break!"
Su Chen shouted loudly, and the Xuantian artifact in his hand bloomed with a blazing and terrifying light, erupting with spatial slashes, finally exhausting the Enlightenment Fruit Tree's Heaven and Earth Dao rhythm, cutting off all the land near it, digging it up together with its roots and soil, leaving only a huge pit in place.
[Ding, Host intercepts the Enlightenment Fruit Tree, the plot changes, the Child of Fortune Gu Changsheng's fortune is damaged, obtaining 500000 Fortune Value]
[Total Fortune Value: 3921300]
The system prompt sounded in Su Chen's mind.
"Success!!"
Qing Ling and the others were overjoyed when they saw this!
After Su Chen freed up his hand, he also began to fully activate the Heavenly Yang Divine Light Bell, and with the help of Qing Ling and the others, the Heavenly Yang Divine Light Bell's power became even more extraordinary, and it just kept resisting the Devouring Ghost Insect King's attacks, rushing towards the outside of the canyon little by little.
The Devouring Ghost Insect King frantically attacked for a long time, and seeing that it could not break the Heavenly Yang Divine Light Bell, it finally had to give up.
But.
When it turned its head and found that the Enlightenment Fruit Tree had disappeared, it immediately went crazy, once again letting out an angry roar and continuing to surround the Heavenly Yang Divine Light Bell and constantly ram into it.
Su Chen took a deep breath and suddenly opened his palm, a gray stone bead emerged, blooming with light.
"Roar!!"
In the next moment, a thousand-zhang Demonic Dragon emerged out of thin air, opened its mouth and spat out a black breath, hitting the Devouring Ghost Insect King.
Although the breath did little damage to it, it successfully diverted the Devouring Ghost Insect King's anger and attention.
The Devouring Ghost Insect King immediately turned around and rushed towards the Demonic Dragon, directly lying on the Demonic Dragon's body and beginning to gnaw.
What was alarming was that the Demonic Dragon was actually being gnawed out of bloody holes by the Devouring Ghost Insect King!
Fortunately, this was not a real living being, but only a copy made with the Myriad Manifestation Divine Eye, and Su Chen did not feel distressed, but took the opportunity to turn around and run!
