Chapter 276: Centipede Swarm

"So we have to find out what the Kunlun Sect is for? I don't want to deal with other cultivators, what if they want to beat me? I can't beat them at this level, right?" Shen Yifan asked anxiously.

"We don't have to meet them formally, we just need to find them. I'll find a way to steal some magic weapons for you to use. The Demon King explained.

"Since I met you, your words are the most beautiful. Shen Yifan said movingly. What a magic weapon, what a beautiful thing, what kind of magic weapon can I get? No, why does it have to be one, not three, four?

Shen Yifan thought so as he began to set off. He didn't take away the metal trekking pole that stood on a high place, for fear that it would be easier to attract lightning with this thing in his hand.

The farther away from the river, the more barren the ground becomes. There are fewer and fewer weeds, more and more sand and gravel, and there is even a place that is almost like a desert. Along the road, you can often see animal bones and fur scattered everywhere, which adds a desolate and terrifying atmosphere.

The sky is not beautiful, the morning is still sunny, but at this moment, it is already cloudy, and it seems that there will be a lightning bolt at any time, which makes Shen Yifan worried. A few hours later, a strong wind was blowing in the valley. The raging cold wind was mixed with sand and gravel, and it was like a knife cutting on the face, making it difficult for people to walk.

Only then did Shen Yifan deeply understand why this place was called Death Valley, it was really not easy for an ordinary person to be here, and it was not easy to get out alive.

Due to the fact that he had consumed too much True Qi in his previous cultivation, Shen Yifan was particularly tired at this moment. In order to prevent any accidents, the Demon King asked Shen Yifan to stop, and set up camp here, and the rest of the route came and went to him.

Shen Yifan naturally agreed with this suggestion, so he began to set up a tent in the face of the strong wind. This is not an easy job, even if Shen Yifan has done it many times and can be called a veteran.

However, just as he had finally set up his tent after much difficulty, the wind stopped and the dark clouds dispersed. Shen Yifan looked at the sky and couldn't help complaining: "I see that you are just trying to make things difficult for me!"

Now that the tent was set up, it was impossible to dismantle it and continue on his way, so he hid in the tent and began to enjoy it. The night before, the Demon King had hunted a yak, so he took out the stored roast beef and ate it in large gulps to replenish his strength.

Shen Yifan slept there that night.

The next morning, when he awoke, he found himself on the side of a mountain wall. There was also a dark cave on the mountain wall, nearly two meters wide and more than three meters high, and I don't know where it leads.

He remembered that the Demon King had said that on the way to the Kunlun Sect, he had to pass through a cave, and it seemed to be this cave, but he didn't know if the Demon King had passed through this cave last night. In case he made a mistake, he stayed where he was and cultivated, and did not rush into the cave.

At noon, the Demon King woke up, and after communicating with him, Shen Yifan knew that he had not guessed wrong, the Demon King did not pass through the cave last night, and this arduous task was still left to him.

He looked at it and found that the cave was so deep that there was no end in sight. The innermost black rumbling sounds, and it feels like the open mouth of a monster that will devour the person who enters the cave at any time.

Shen Yifan nervously asked if there was any mechanism in the cave.

The Demon King told him: "Back then, there were no mechanisms in this cave, and the Kunlun faction didn't have to rely on some mechanisms to resist the invasion of foreign enemies. But more than 1,000 years have passed, and I'm not sure if they installed a mechanism or not. ”

"Doesn't that mean he didn't say it?" Shen Yifan was very nervous, he recalled some secret passage mechanisms in martial arts novels, and decided to bring a few relatively large stones with him and throw stones to ask for directions.

Before entering the cave, he threw a stone into it, and fortunately, nothing happened except the sound of the stone rolling on the ground.

Because the light in the cave was insufficient, especially the further inside, it became darker, so he held a flashlight in one hand and a dagger in the other, and walked slowly and cautiously.

The hole is quite wide enough to accommodate four people walking side by side. Since there were a lot of people coming in and out that year, the ground was also flat.

walked like this for a while, without any abnormalities, and Shen Yifan gradually relaxed.

Then he came to a fork in the road. The Demon King reminded him to take the left path.

Shen Yifan asked curiously where the road on the right leads. The Demon King calmly told him that it was a dead end, and that there was nothing in it.

Shen Yifan sighed: "I'm like playing a role-playing game now. However, if you walk the maze in the game, there are often treasure chests on the way to the guillotine. ”

Of course, there could be no treasure chest in this hole now, so he didn't plan to waste time on the guillotine road, but he continued to walk for a while, and after a few rounds, he suddenly heard a rustling sound in front of him.

He nervously flapped his flashlight in the direction from which the sound came, and saw a large centipede breaking through the ground on the ground. The centipede's head and feet were the size of the lid of a teacup, and it was a vivid red, its claws were equally red, and its body was shiny black.

Shen Yifan has an instinctive fear of insects, especially centipedes, which are so big, so thick, and so bright!

He couldn't help but gasp, and his whole body couldn't stop trembling a little, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

He asked the Demon King, "This is a centipede raised by the Kunlun faction?"

"How can the Kunlun faction raise centipedes! I haven't seen centipedes here before. The Demon King explained.

"That's not right, centipedes shouldn't live on the plateau, what does it eat?" Shen Yifan couldn't understand.

"I'm afraid it's not an ordinary centipede, it may be a demon insect. You go and slash it first. The Demon King suggested.

"God, go and try to slash it first! What if it's a pet raised by an elder of the Kunlun Sect? I hacked him to death, he has to skin me!" Shen Yifan protested.

"The guy who keeps centipedes as pets is definitely not a serious person! With me supporting you, I am not afraid to offend the Kunlun faction!"

"What if it bites me? This guy must be poisonous, he's going to be poisoned. Shen Yifan still didn't dare.

"It's crawling around on the ground, how can it bite you if you don't give it your face?"

Shen Yifan gritted his teeth, lowered his heart, and decided to make a move, at this time, the centipede had already burrowed out of the ground and was more than a meter long.

The centipede quickly crawled towards Shen Yifan. Shen Yifan figured out that as long as the centipede didn't climb on him, it was not much of a threat, so he was bold, and with a dagger, he pierced the centipede's head, pinned it to the ground, and retreated back in time before the centipede's tail rolled towards him.

The centipede could not break free from its dagger, and after a moment of dying struggle, it finally stopped moving.

Shen Yifan cautiously asked the Demon King: "This kind of brainless insect won't pretend to be dead, right?"

The Demon King analyzed: "Probably not, but you better observe for a while before you say it, this insect may have become a demon." Let me also remind you that the centipede is social and must have companions here. ”

"Then you still let me kill it?!What should I do if its companions come to me for revenge?" Shen Yifan was a little afraid, he didn't like to be remembered by poisonous insects.

"If you don't kill it, it will bite you? Could it be that if you say two good words, it will let you go? I don't think this is right, according to the style of the Kunlun faction in the past, there shouldn't be such a big centipede here, you have to cheer up the spirit!"

When Shen Yifan heard this, he said excitedly: "I've always been very energetic! I shouldn't have come to walk the cave in the first place! Why don't you come at night?! I feel like I'm going to die here at any time now!"

"I'm not here to let you know the way and learn more. But now the situation is not right, we must pass through it as soon as possible, I don't want to delay for a second!" said the Demon King solemnly.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, there was a large number of insects crawling in the cave, Shen Yifan took a flashlight to look around, so frightened that he almost fainted, there were centipedes on the ground of the entire cave, the top and the mountain walls on both sides, there were hundreds of them!

Shen Yifan didn't say a word, he ran back and was bitten alive by a centipede, this is probably the most disgusting way to die!

The Demon King rebuked him over there: "What are you afraid of! You are not afraid of snow leopards and gray wolves, but you are also afraid of these little insects, go back and destroy them for me!"

"I'd rather fight a bear, a tiger, and hundreds of centipedes! I get goosebumps when I see them, and if a centipede gets into my clothes, I'd better die!" Shen Yifan shouted heartbreakingly as he ran.

"A dignified manly man, I'm actually afraid of hundreds of bugs! It's a shame to say it!"

"It's easy for you to say, you breathe a fire and the bugs will be cooked. What can I do? The only spell I know now is that vajra finger, do you want me to kill those centipedes one by one with my fingers? I don't want to touch centipedes with my fingers! There will be germs on me!" Shen Yifan shot back.

"You don't just use a whip, you still have stones on you to smash, and you don't necessarily have to come into contact with centipedes. The Demon King suggested.

Shen Yifan slowed down and asked hesitantly, "You can't wait for me to fall asleep, you come and clean them up?"

"Either you put me to sleep right now, or I can't wait!" the Demon King refused.

Killed Shen Yifan, he didn't dare to sleep in this hole, who knew if there would be centipedes crawling on him when he fell asleep, so he had to stop, and after thinking for a while, he finally mustered up the courage to turn around and go to the centipede group.

When he arrived at the previous place, he found that the centipede was not chasing him, but gathered around the corpse of the centipede that had been crucified by the dagger, as if it was a memorial service.

However, when he came to the "murder scene", the centipedes recognized him as the murderer of the "beetle" and began to rush towards him.

Shen Yifan took the suggestion of the Demon King, and first smashed the stones on his body towards the centipede group. The centipedes are so crowded that they don't need to aim, they can smash a piece with a casual smash.

After smashing all the stones in his hand, he drew his long whip and whipped the centipede that rushed to the front as he retreated.
