Mythical Scroll Artist: Starting with the God of Wealth, Zhao Gongming

Chapter 427 Bi Fang's Fire
In such extreme group combat, the presence of our [Bifang] is naturally indispensable.

Although the strange swarms of insects were endless, their levels were all pitifully low.

"Bi~Fang—!"

The divine bird Bifang appeared once again with its unique cry, instantly showering down Bifang divine fire and igniting the surrounding swarm of insects.

Boom~!

In an instant, the surrounding world transformed into a strange sea of ​​fire.

The endless swarm of insects, like autumn poplar and willow catkins, was ignited by a fire and began to spread rapidly in all directions.

"In this situation, Bifang is definitely the best choice!"

Seeing the surrounding insect swarms being rapidly burned to ashes, Wu Xian couldn't help but marvel at the incredible power of Bifang's [Wood Spirit Transformation into Fire].

Although the insect monsters spawned by these disordered forces are disordered, they are not without the element of [Wood Spirit].

Like the viral monsters in the Gate of Creation, they are essentially life forms created by a chaotic mixture of insectoid forces.

Normal insectoid monsters possess a clear and stable spiritual power structure, or a network of laws.

But these chaotic monsters did not.

Their power is like a special spiritual structure formed by various spiritual substances being randomly piled together.

For Bifang Divine Fire, this spiritual power structure is actually easier to ignite.

After all, in this mixed spiritual material structure, the [wood spirit essence] is also evenly distributed throughout the entire body.

The flames raged and continued to spread throughout the Zerg population.

At this moment, the insect realm area near the Spider Cave is like a "forest fire" ignited by [Bifang].

What propelled the fire was not various plants and trees, but an endless swarm of insects.

"Retract a bit, retract a bit, keep the area under control!"

Seeing the fire spreading wildly, Wu Xian had to use the [Bifang] to control its spread in order to prevent innocent people from being harmed.

Most importantly, reinforcements from the Azure Tree King's side are on their way.

It would be terrible if I were accidentally injured by Bifang's divine fire.

Of course, the reinforcements brought by the Azure Tree King were mostly high-level demons from the Green Desert, and even the Bifang Divine Fire might not be able to burn them.

However, plant-based creatures have a high content of "wood essence," making them more flammable.

After Bi Fang cleared the road with a large fire, the speed of reinforcements was naturally able to be increased significantly.

Soon after, they successfully arrived at the eerie area left behind by the Evil Realm Battlefield.

The Bifang Divine Fire had already spread to this area, burning the dense swarms of insects in the world to ashes, but the area was still teeming with insect monsters.

It's like constantly providing fuel to help the Bifang Divine Fire continue to burn.

Looking down from the sky, the entire Evil Realm Battlefield resembles a giant "fire basin," with almost no insect monsters visible, as they are instantly reduced to ashes in the flames.

Only a few higher-level disordered insect monsters dared to peek out.

Unfortunately, before they could escape the inferno, they were burned to ashes.

In the distance, a giant spider vanished into thin air, transforming into a graceful figure, accompanied by numerous unfamiliar insect demons, gathering towards Wu Xian. Xue Zhengying and his master sister, who had arrived earlier, were also among them.

After following the old man to cultivate his body, Xue Zhengying has been able to control the insectoid power within his body to a certain extent.

At this moment, several strange insectoid limbs swayed around its body, resembling sharp spider spears.

Moreover, it differs from the spider spears spawned by the regular Zerg forces.

These spider spears had a metallic energy pattern and luster flowing across their surface, resembling a psionic circuit, making them extremely lethal. "Such a commotion, and you just took care of it all with a single fire?"

Although Kun Youniang and the others had already learned about the extraordinary characteristics of [Bifang] from Xue Lingling.

But seeing the endless hordes of insect monsters burned to ashes still couldn't hide the shock in my heart.

It's important to know that the Zerg generally prefer to win through sheer numbers and like to use swarm tactics.

But now, in the face of Bifang Divine Fire, their "swarm of insects" tactic seems to have completely lost its meaning.

Fortunately, the single [Pleiades Star Lord] had them completely under control, so they didn't mind adding fuel to the fire.

"The flames of the divine bird Bifang are still too heaven-defying."

Xue Lingling clicked her tongue in amazement, having truly witnessed the terrifying power of the Bifang Divine Fire today.

That endless, astronomical swarm of insects was actually wiped out by a single fire.

“It has only temporarily suppressed the endless swarms of insects,” Wu Xian shook his head and sighed, his expression grave. “The problem has not been solved.”

Kun Youniang and the others glanced at the raging fire of the evil battlefield and remained silent.

As Wu Xian said, the key issue has not been resolved.

The endless swarms of insects, though seemingly imposing, were actually of very low level. They were only somewhat destructive to the surrounding insect world environment, posing no threat to these great demons; at most, they were just a bit annoying.

It's like the locust plague on Earth in a past life.

While locust plagues are terrifying, they don't directly devour people, but their damage to the environment and food supply is enormous.

It should be noted that these disordered insect monsters are themselves products of the power of the insect world.

The destruction and erosion of the insect world by these disordered insect monsters is consuming the living environment of these "orderly" otherworldly beings.

To put it simply, after this wave of insect swarms swept through, the psionic energy in the entire area noticeably decreased.

The key issue is not just the concentration of spiritual energy and the depletion of the power of heaven and earth, but also the destruction of the territory established by these great demons.

The same applies to the outposts that humans have established here.

For example, the painstaking efforts made over the past month or so at the Spider Cave have come to naught, and the cave has even suffered some damage.

"When did this situation begin to show signs?" Wu Xian asked seriously.

“Five days ago,” the spirited centipede demon said, “at first, only some insectoid monsters would occasionally appear, and the deterioration process was relatively slow. But not long ago, the situation suddenly became uncontrollable.”

Upon hearing this, Wu Xian frowned, a vague sense of foreboding creeping in. "Could someone be maliciously escalating this situation?"

“We had the same suspicion, so we came to investigate,” Kun Youniang said seriously. “But we didn’t find anything unusual, nor any trace of human intervention.”

"Little Dizi, have you detected any traces of evil power?" Wu Xian asked Di Ting, who was standing to the side.

“No,” Di Ting shook his head, then added, “But it’s only that I don’t have it within my detection range, it doesn’t mean it really doesn’t exist. After all, I can’t detect the evil power that caused this strange area.”

Wu Xian felt a chill run down his spine.

Although it was still uncertain, it made him feel somewhat uneasy.

Looking at the raging Bifang Divine Fire again, a strange sense of fear welled up in his heart. "I'm afraid we should put away the Bifang Divine Fire. Everyone, let's prepare for battle again."

Unfortunately, one of the major flaws of Bifang Divine Fire is that it can cause distortion and pollution.

Although the amount produced is not large, the sheer number of insect monsters is overwhelming.

This fire has probably already caused a considerable amount of distortion and pollution.

For the evil god scroll painter, the distortion and contamination are a kind of supplement.
