Beast Taming Immortal Clan

Chapter 320 The Demonic Insects' First Display of Power [Please Subscribe]

"Insect-repelling techniques? When did the Zhou family acquire this skill?"

Above the wilderness, Zhou Yu stared in astonishment at the cloud of insects above Zhou Chun's head, completely stunned by the insect-repelling technique Zhou Chun had displayed.

It's no wonder she was surprised. In fact, although the Zhou family's insect-repelling technique has opened up the learning threshold to many clansmen, because top-quality demonic insects are rare, and cultivating demonic insects and mastering the secret technique both require time, no Zhou family cultivator has yet made a name for themselves with this secret technique.

In comparison, Zhou Chun was the one in the Zhou family who had mastered and applied this secret technique to the highest level.

The number of "Mysterious Armor Golden Feather" demonic insects he released at once was as many as five or six thousand, and mature demonic insects accounted for one-tenth of them, while the rest were all adult demonic insects.

The number of these demonic insects is already sufficient to unleash the power of the insect-repelling technique.

After releasing these demonic insects, he immediately began chanting incantations and forming hand seals, pointing his fingers at the cloud of insects in the air.

Instantly, a golden light shot from Zhou Chun's hand into the cloud of insects in the air, and then the thousands of demonic insects shone with golden light, quickly vibrating their wings to form a golden spear in the air.

The spear, composed of five or six thousand demonic insects, was twenty or thirty feet long and thicker than a water bucket.

Then Zhou Chun raised his hand and pointed at Zhou Yu opposite him, and the spear shot towards the target like an arrow.

Zhou Yu naturally dared not let the insect spear get close to him.

As a cultivator specializing in beast taming techniques, she naturally understood the terrifying aspect of insect cultivators: being surrounded by those demonic insects.

She formed hand seals, and black light appeared in her palms. Soon, she raised her hand and waved it, and a jet-black beam of light swept towards the insect spear that was breaking through the air.

That jet-black beam of light was extremely powerful, surpassing even the spells cast by ordinary late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators.

This is because Zhou Yu's main cultivation method is a combat technique; otherwise, she wouldn't still be at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage at this age, when she is about to pass away.

However, she still underestimated the strength of the "Mysterious Armor Golden Feather," a main battle demonic insect cultivated by Golden Core stage insect cultivators.

The black beam of light and the golden insect spear met in mid-air. The spear was slightly deflected, causing some of the demonic insects to fall. Then, under Zhou Chun's control, it shot towards Zhou Yu again.

This scene made Zhou Yu's heart sink instantly, and her eyelids twitched violently.

Without thinking twice, she quickly ordered the restless golden raccoon beside her to lend a hand.

At the same time, he raised his hand and summoned a black wine gourd artifact. A stream of ink-like black liquid gushed out from the spout, transforming into a long black snake that lunged at the insect spear.

Meow!

Upon receiving its master's command, the golden raccoon meowed and transformed into a golden streak, lunging at Zhou Chun with the speed of a golden lightning bolt.

But it is only as fast as lightning; the Silver Lightning Python, Bai Bai, can actually control lightning.

With a hiss of a snake, a silver-white lightning bolt ripped through the sky and struck the oncoming golden light precisely.

Then a flash of gold and silver light appeared, and the golden raccoon's figure froze in mid-air.

On the other side, after colliding with the insect spear, the long black serpent suddenly exploded into a large cloud of black mist, engulfing the insect spear within.

No one knows what the mystery of that black mist is, but after the insect spear came into contact with it, the "Mysterious Armor Golden Feather" demonic insect inside could no longer maintain the "Insect Spear Technique" state and immediately dissipated.

This surprised Zhou Chun slightly.

However, after carefully sensing the surroundings, he breathed a sigh of relief upon discovering that the "Mysterious Armored Golden Feathers" had merely disintegrated into individual units without suffering many casualties.

It wasn't easy for him to cultivate so many "Mysterious Armor Golden Feathers"; it took him almost ten years.

He would be very heartbroken if he suffered a large loss.

"No wonder he dared to betray his clan several times; he really does have some skills!"

Muttering to himself, Zhou Chun immediately patted the storage bag at his waist and released the "Flying Fire Scorpion".

Compared to the number of "Mysterious Armored Golden Feathers", there are far fewer "Flying Fire Scorpions", with less than three thousand.

However, these demonic insects, compared to the "Mysterious Armored Golden Feathers" which lacked ranged attack methods, had an additional flying needle spell.

The "Flying Fire Scorpion's" stinger can be launched as a flying needle and has a strong shield-breaking effect.

At the same time, the scorpion sting contains extremely potent fire poison, which can be superimposed to enhance the toxicity.

Even a Foundation Establishment cultivator would be in danger of dying if hit by the poisonous needles of more than a dozen adult "Flying Fire Scorpions" at the same time.

Moreover, after shooting out its stinger, the adult "Flying Fire Scorpion" can grow a new stinger in a short period of time.

After releasing the scorpion swarm, Zhou Chun did not rush to have these demonic insects use flying needle magic. Instead, he had them hover in the air, waiting for the right moment to strike.

Those truly leading the charge were still the "Black Armor and Golden Feathers".

Zhou Yu is a good opponent, and Zhou Chun also wants to see how much combat power he has now after cultivating the insect-repelling technique for more than ten years.

As for whether he could defeat Zhou Yu, he never considered the possibility of failure.

After all, he also had a third-tier mid-grade demon beast, the Fire God Jackal, in another spirit beast pouch at his waist!

But Zhou Yu didn't want to waste time with Zhou Chun.

After seeing the Golden-Winged Tiger bypass her to chase after her great-grandson, she knew she had to act quickly.

Upon seeing the swarm of insects approaching, she didn't hesitate to raise her hand and pat her storage bag at her waist, directly taking out a second-tier mid-grade magic talisman, "Fire Dragon Talisman," and activating it.

A lifelike fire dragon circled around Zhou Yu, scattering all the flying insects that rushed towards him, like a moving wall of fire.

What was originally a purely offensive magic talisman has now been used by her as a defensive measure, which Zhou Chun feels has taught her a valuable lesson.

After Zhou Yu temporarily blocked the insect swarm's attack, she quickly flicked her sleeve, and a silver-white embroidered handkerchief flew out from her sleeve, spinning as it flew towards Zhou Chun.

After flying to the vicinity of Zhou Chun, the embroidered handkerchief suddenly shone brightly with silver light, and strands of silver light flew out and pierced towards Zhou Chun.

Dangdang Dangdang!

With a metallic clang, Zhou Chun summoned his protective [Mysterious Golden Bell], which was directly struck by the silver threads, causing it to scatter golden light and sparks.

Those silver threads, which look as thin as hair, are incredibly powerful and of exceptionally high quality.

The [Mysterious Golden Bell] is a rare second-tier high-grade defensive magic weapon that has survived attacks from other second-tier high-grade magic weapons on numerous occasions without damage.

But this time, the silver threads pierced through it, creating tiny holes.

However, those silver threads were incredibly resilient and remained completely undamaged.

When that first tactic failed, Zhou Yu tried a series of new ones.

She raised her hand and pointed, and the silvery-white threads reformed into an embroidered handkerchief. Then, the handkerchief automatically stretched and changed in mid-air, turning into a large silver net that swept over Zhou Chun.

These changes amazed Zhou Chun, broadening his horizons once again.

However, Zhou Chun is not the type to take a beating without fighting back.

Seeing the silver net coming, he immediately reached out and patted the storage bag at his waist. The [Sun-Shining Golden Wheel] spun and roared as it slashed at the net.

As Zhou Chun had predicted, the sharp blade of the [Sun-Shining Golden Wheel] could not cut through the silver threads due to their toughness and hardness. Instead, the wheel itself became trapped in the net after losing its impact.

However, the silver net was interrupted midway by the attack of the [Sun-Shining Golden Wheel], and Zhou Chun easily dodged out of its net's range.

Then Zhou Chun patted the storage bag at his waist, and a golden gourd magic artifact appeared in his hand.

He raised his hand and patted the golden gourd, and the gourd's mouth opened automatically. Then he raised his hand, made a hand seal, and pointed at Zhou Yu. A golden rainbow shot out from the gourd's mouth and went straight towards the other party.

A golden rainbow pierced the sky, as fast as lightning.

Zhou Yu didn't have time to make any further moves, so he could only use the defensive spells attached to his cultivation technique. He raised his hand and waved it in front of him, instantly creating a black water curtain.

To her surprise, the power of that golden rainbow was far greater than she had anticipated.

But then the golden rainbow fell upon the water curtain, instantly shattering the surging water and creating a huge gap.

Zhou Yu, who was behind him, only had time to turn his body to the side before Jin Hong brushed past his waist, tearing a small part of his waist in half!

what--

A heart-wrenching scream rang out from Zhou Yu's mouth. Her face contorted in pain as she clutched her waist, trying to push the intestines that were spilling out of her wound back into her stomach and attempting to stop the bleeding.

But she is currently on the battlefield, surrounded by powerful enemies, and doesn't have much time to treat her injuries.

After Zhou Chun landed a successful blow, he decisively ordered some of the "Flying Fire Scorpions" hovering in the air to shoot their scorpion stingers at Zhou Yu.

The sound of flying needles piercing the air echoed through the sky, and countless dark red scorpion needles, as thin as cow hair, instantly brought Zhou Yu's attack range to several feet in all directions.

But at that moment, a golden figure suddenly appeared beside Zhou Yu, shielding her from the attack of the flying needles with his body.

It turned out that the golden raccoon cat, seeing its master severely injured, quickly abandoned its opponent, the silver lightning python Bai Bai, and turned back to save its master.

Its return to defense this time undoubtedly saved Zhou Yu's life.

However, it itself was riddled with holes by the barrage of flying needles.

Although most of the scorpion stingers failed to pierce its fur, some of the mature "Flying Fire Scorpions" still managed to pierce its skin with their stingers, injecting fire venom into its body.

With these fire and poison of the same origin superimposed on each other, even a powerful second-tier high-grade demon beast like it could not resist them.

A mournful howl came from the golden raccoon's mouth. Its nose, pupils, paws, and other areas not covered by fur visibly swelled and turned red rapidly. White smoke rose from its back, and its body temperature soared to a terrifying level under the influence of the fire poison.

Then, just moments ago it had risked its life to protect its master, but now it completely disregarded its master behind it and, with its eyes bloodshot, lunged towards a pool of water on the ground below.

Chi Chi Chi!

As the golden raccoon pounced into the water, the pool seemed to be filled with a bucket of lava, instantly releasing a large amount of white steam.

This demonstrates the ferocity of the "Flying Fire Scorpion's" fire poison.

Without the protection of the golden raccoon, Zhou Chun had a thought, and three bolts of lightning struck down on Zhou Yu.

Under the bombardment of these three lightning bolts, Zhou Yu, who had just barely managed to activate a defensive talisman to protect himself, was instantly shattered and fell to the ground.

Just then, the pale golden flying insects quickly flew to her and transformed into a cloud of insects to catch her. Then, a large number of flying insects crawled all over her body, leaving only her face exposed.

At this point, Zhou Yu was on her last breath.

"Zhou Yu, do you have any last words?"

Zhou Chun looked down at Zhou Yu's wrinkled and spotted old face with a calm gaze and spoke the words of a victor.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu opened her cloudy eyes wide and looked at him, coughing up blood as she said, "Cough cough cough, if you're willing to spare my grandson, I'll give you my savings that I've hidden away, and tell you the reason why Black Jade Toad's life force suddenly plummeted!"

Although she was on the verge of death, her mind was very clear, and she immediately grasped the key point.

But after hearing her conditions, Zhou Chun said calmly, "The Zhou family doesn't lack your savings. How to deal with your grandson should be decided by the Supreme Elder!"

After saying that, he changed the subject, adding with feigned remorse, "However, if you are willing to atone for your sins, the Supreme Elder might show leniency and spare his life!"

"No, I insist you promise to spare his life before I can tell you!"

Zhou Yu struggled and let out a low growl, his emotions extremely agitated.

It must be said that although she was a person of extremely poor character and had done many bad things, her paternal love for her juniors was indeed quite touching.

However, this small amount of emotion alone was not enough to change Zhou Chun's mind.

He immediately replied coldly, "Since you're so stubborn, then forget it. I'll send you and your grandson on your way!"

As he spoke, he stopped suppressing those "Black Armor Golden Feathers".

Then a pitiful scream rang out, and in just a moment, Zhou Yu was no longer in this world. Only her storage bag and spirit beast bag fell from mid-air and were caught by Zhou Chun.

Not far away in mid-air, the middle-aged man in blue robes, who had been half-dead and dragged over by the Golden-Winged Tiger, was so frightened by this scene that he closed his eyes and fainted on the spot.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun couldn't help but shake his head, "What a waste of a good-for-nothing! It's just a pity about that Foundation Establishment Pill!"

Then he simply let the Golden-Winged Tiger bite and kill the opponent.

Zhou Yu probably won't understand until her death why Zhou Chun didn't consider her conditions at all.

Little did Zhou Chun know that, in her view, the fact that she would take out the Black Jade Toad in exchange for only one Foundation Establishment Pill meant that she had already concluded that the Black Jade Toad could not recover.

Since that's the case, even if we learn the reason for the Black Jade Toad's sudden drop in vitality from her, what can we do?

Of course, most importantly, Zhou Mingde had already told Zhou Chun before he left that he had a rough idea of ​​why the Black Jade Toad's vitality had suddenly dropped, so that Zhou Chun would not be coerced by Zhou Yu.

However, just as Zhou Chun had killed Zhou Yu and his grandson, packed up his spoils, and was preparing to leave the scene and return to his family, he encountered another unexpected situation.

Chapter 1, there will be another chapter tonight.
