A life of clearness

Chapter 117 This method is feasible
A green leaf slowly floated down from the sky, brushed against the scales of the armored beast, and then fell to the ground.

The originally intact green leaves soon began to crack and gradually melted into the moss on the surface.

"This is dental caries." Fenghuanger explained.

The two followed the falling leaves, hiding their auras and lingering on the armored beast. Then the spiritual power turned into silk and bound them tightly in the gaps between the scales.

"Yeah." Rong Qing nodded.

"It doesn't matter if it's normal, but if it's seriously injured, even a beast with a high level of cultivation won't dare to step on it directly."

This kind of alienated moss has extremely tiny sucking tubes and teeth inside. A single one is powerless, but they grow densely. If the beasts here are injured, the blood residue they drop will become excellent fertilizer to nourish them.

The armored beasts filed in in an orderly manner. The armored beasts that Rong Qing and Fenghuang'er were in were also in the team.

Everything in front of my eyes suddenly went dark.

The armored beast crawled into the almost straight passage.

This drill is extremely deep.

Rong Qing and the other person dug a hole from the depths of the giant insect's nest to the ground, although they only used array plates and talismans. However, the combined efforts of the two Half-Step Incarnation Spiritual Masters produced an extremely amazing effect.

This passage, which was blasted open by the burst of spiritual power, was twenty miles long, and the Wujia Beast team was all at the Nascent Soul stage. Therefore, as they rushed in one after another, the remaining giant insects in the nest had no time to block the passage.

Just after ten breaths, the armored beasts under Rong Qing and the other person rushed out of the passage and directly broke into the giant insect's nest.

The inside of the nest was completely dark, but this did not affect the battle between the armored beasts and the giant insects inside.

The Wujia beast's pair of small eyes shone brightly in the darkness, emitting a faint green light. Its two slender front legs suddenly grabbed a giant insect, and then its long tail behind it swung at the giant insect like a whip.

"His ha——"

"hiss----"

The buzzing of giant insects could be heard throughout the nest.

Seeing that the Wujia beast was already entangled with the giant insect, Rong Qing and the others let go of the spiritual silk and hid away from the battle.

"If nothing unexpected happens, it will only take an hour or two for the giant insect to be completely defeated." Fenghuang'er tapped the jade flute in her right hand against her left palm. "The calamity of extinction is imminent, and there are no giant insects with the cultivation level of a spirit transformation appearing at this time... It seems that the outcome is already determined."

"...Not necessarily." Rong Qing suddenly laughed, "If the giant insects and the armored beasts were fighting, the outcome would naturally be the defeat of the giant insects. But since you and I are here, then their ending should be written by us."

"What does Fellow Daoist Yu mean?"

"While the snipe and the clam quarrel, the fisherman gains." Rong Qing pointed at the corpses of the giant insects and armored beasts that fell on the ground, "We have killed nearly a thousand giant insects, and there are no good materials worth using. But these armored beasts are different. The scales and claws on their bodies are all top-quality materials for refining pills and weapons."

Even though the two of them were hiding at the edge of the battlefield, the aftermath of the battle between the giant insects and the armored beasts would still reach here. Fenghuang'er nodded upon hearing this, and together with Rong Qing, they retreated several miles, far away from the armored beasts and giant insects that were entangled with each other and were falling towards them.

"If the battle ends like this, we won't be able to obtain many armored beast corpses."

The two huge monsters fell to the ground, still in a biting posture before they died.

"So, if you and I help the giant insect at the critical moment, we can attract more armored beasts to enter here."

"This method works."

Just as Fenghuang'er finished transmitting the message, the giant insect that was originally fighting desperately with the Wujia Beast suddenly gave up and tried its best to drill into a cave.

As if they had received some kind of command, they were unable to stop them even when the lower half of their bodies were torn apart by the armored beasts. Rong Qing and Fenghuang'er looked at each other, and then they tacitly landed on a armored beast again, and followed the armored beast to chase the giant insects.

Although the center of the giant insect's nest is extremely wide, it has many tunnels connecting to various places. Even if Wujia Beast tried his best to follow the giant insect in its territory, he gradually lost the trace of the giant insect in the tunnels that turned from time to time.

After the giant insects drilled into the cave, they fled in different directions through multiple passages inside the cave.

The armored beasts were also divided. Rong Qing and the others could not quite understand their calls. But now the armored beast under them had separated from the main force and followed a giant insect with another armored beast.

Even so, he was almost thrown off by the giant insect several times.

Rong Qing was riding on the free mount, knowing that if she continued like this, she would be thrown off by the giant insect in a few tries.

"This place is still intact. We had never been to this place before when we were underground, so the tunnels here should be well preserved." Rong Qing pondered, "Where are they going? If they just rely on escaping in the tunnels, it's obviously impossible for them to completely kill the Wujia Beast."

"It's more like we're going to lure the armored beasts one by one to a certain place and kill them."

Rong Qing gradually realized the orderliness of the giant insects' movements, especially when she carefully explored them with her spiritual sense. She found that the movements of several giant insects were very similar.

At this time, the giant insect fleeing in front suddenly disappeared.

It's this time!!

"Let's go." Rong Qing briefly transmitted a word, then without stopping, she disappeared with the giant insect.

？ ！！

Fenghuang was just stunned for a moment, and at this moment, just like the armored beast under her, the giant insect disappeared from her sight in an instant.

With a sweep of its tail, the Wujia beast quickly stopped, and its protruding nose kept sniffing at the place where the giant insect disappeared.

Fenghuang frowned slightly, and her spiritual sense cautiously bypassed the Wujia beast and began to sweep.

……

On the other side, Rong Qing was flying closely behind the giant insect, with a spiritual thread sticking between the insect's body and her wrist.

Even after getting rid of the Wujia beast's pursuit, the giant insect did not stop and continued to move quickly through the tunnel without even hesitating about which opening to swim to. This made Rong Qing even more certain that they had their own target direction.

"These bugs are born to live underground. It's not surprising that they know some earth-based life-saving techniques when they reach the Nascent Soul stage."

However, it was precisely because Rong Qing and Fenghuang'er appeared too suddenly that they did not immediately realize that they had such a life-saving technique. It would be more accurate to call it a natural ability rather than a technique.

No other creature can learn this ability.

"I saw that it was becoming increasingly difficult for the Wujia Beast to catch up with the giant insect, so I used my spiritual sense to lock onto the insect in advance. Fortunately, it caught up." Rong Qing couldn't help but feel fortunate that she had thought one step further and made preparations.

This is also the reason why Fenghuang'er couldn't follow immediately after Rong Qing reminded her through telepathy.

However, considering Fenghuang'er's ability, Rong Qing was not worried.

It won't be long before I can see Fenghuang'er. As for now...

"First see where it's going."

The spiritual silk on the wrist was not long, just to prevent Rong Qing from sticking directly to the insect. However, the thin skin on the surface of the insect that was constantly shrinking and wriggling was extremely visible.
