Chapter 970: Giant Demon Worm
Even if you don't fight, continuing to maintain a state of exercise will drain your energy and physical strength. The Great Elder immediately ordered, "The Flame Sword launches a tentative attack to see what the situation is." ”
The fire alchemist immediately separated seven Red Flame Flying Swords, aimed at the four directions and a total of seven caves above, and was about to project them, when the flying swords just flew away from the battle array, the sand under everyone's feet suddenly rolled up several layers of waves.
The sand was damp, and the sand did not come out of the dust, but the sand under the ground blocked the spiritual consciousness more than on the surface, so that the enemy lurked underfoot, and no one could sense it.
No one expected that in this relatively thick underground, there could be something hidden, and everyone was caught off guard, and suddenly this fluctuation was shaken.
"Attention ......"
As soon as the warning sound sounded, four quicksand vortices appeared in the east and south corners of the battle array, and several warriors and alchemists fell on the spot.
"Damn it......" The Great Elder who presided over the battle formation immediately issued an order: "The earth sword counterattacks, and the wood sword defends on the ground!"
Several earth-based alchemists immediately injected mana into the ground, and hundreds of flying swords shuttled back and forth in the quicksand, like a school of fish swimming in the water, seemingly the same thing, but they were distinct, and the violent speed did not stir up half a piece of dust, and the scene was extremely strange.
Everyone couldn't see what was in the thick sand, but under the impact of the torrent of the earth-based flying sword, green liquid continued to burst out between the sand, and a sharp hiss resounded through the sand, obviously the flying sword strike had an effect.
Wood is born with the soil, and the energy generated by the attack of the earth-based flying sword nourishes the wooden sword, and the wooden sword embedded in the quicksand automatically connects into a root-like network, so that the flowing sand is stable after a short time.
"Enemy attack...... Full alert!"
As soon as he repelled the attack under his feet, the buzzing sound around him and overhead had already been suppressed, and the spiritual light and fire made everyone see clearly that the source of the humming sound was actually a large swarm of flying insects!
The insects are fist-sized and identical in appearance to troll worms, except for a slightly lighter color and a pair of fleshy wings on either side of their body.
The Great Elder reminded loudly: "Everyone be careful, this is worm larvae, don't let them get close, their body fluids are highly poisonous!"
Thousands of flying worms rushed to the face. The little worms squirmed while flying, as if they were crawling in mid-air, and the scene made people's scalps tingle, not to mention that they could be fatal, they were harmless, and everyone would not let this disgusting demon thing get close!
Countless flying swords shot in all directions, but whenever the flying sword pierced or shredded a small worm, the little worm would burst like a balloon, and the venom of the corpse would splash away, and the walls and ground of the cave would soon be covered with debris.
The insect swarm rushed fast and close, even if the attack of the Five Elements Sword Formation was very intensive, it was inevitable that there would be a few fish that slipped through the net, and these fish that slipped through the net were exploded in the near distance, and the slurry was inevitably sprinkled on the crowd.
The spell battle array is mainly based on spells, and the main role of the martial artist is the close defense, although they did not come forward to fight, but this scene full of insects and corpses can make people sick to their stomachs just by looking at it.
Only the attack effect of the Flame Sword is relatively thorough, and the insect corpses that have been scorched by the flames, even if they have exploded, will not emit too much slurry, and the burnt smell after burning is far less unbearable than that of live insects and dead insects.
The Great Elder decisively changed the order: "The fire sword will attack, and the other swords will defend!"
The spell conversion of everyone was extremely fast, and in less than five seconds, all the four-series flying swords withdrew from the swarm. And under the effect of the four series of spells, the number of fire flying swords has increased several times, and it is easy to fill the gap of the four series flying swords.
At this time, the members who had fallen into the quicksand also returned to their positions, and the Great Elder hurriedly asked, "How are you?"
"Great Elder, Jin Li and Jin Rui are injured!"
"Jin Feng is also injured!"
Of the three injured, one was an alchemist and two were warriors. The alchemist next to him immediately stepped forward to check, only to see the three injured people, both of whom were injured in the lower abdomen, and the alchemist named Jin Rui was the worst, and his entire back was bitten.
Jin Li and Jin Feng's injuries are not serious on the surface, but the wounds are contaminated with helminthic toxin, which cannot stop bleeding and are difficult to heal.
As for Jin Rui, that's even less to say.
The person next to him immediately bandaged the three of them, although it didn't help, but at least it could reduce the amount of bleeding.
The alchemist who was treating the wounded was anxious: "Great Elder, this ...... How is this good?"
The Great Elder was also furious, and he gritted his teeth and said, "We need to get to the mother worm's nest as soon as possible. If I'm not mistaken, there is a 'blood pool' in the mother's nest, and there is a 'blood spirit grass' growing in it, because it is infected with worm toxins all year round, so the blood spirit grass has worm antibodies, which can relieve the poison of worms!"
Jin Rui said, "Big ...... Grand Elder...... I'm afraid I won't be able to survive the mother's nest, so I'll open the way for you!"
Everyone was shocked: "Jin Rui, what are you going to do?"
Jin Rui arched his hand towards everyone, and rushed into the hole with the strongest black wind breath with a flying sword all over his body.
"Jin Rui—"
Everyone hissed and shouted, but in a blink of an eye, they couldn't feel Jin Rui's breath.
"Bang bang bang...... Ahh......hh
The sound of mana explosion and poisonous insect explosion came from the cave closely, and Jin Rui's roar became farther and farther away, and finally after a huge roar, there was no movement.
A strong shock wave surged like a wave, and the violent shock shook the cave everywhere and collapsed, and everyone had to disband the battle formation and evacuate the way they came.
Jin Rui actually used the way of self-detonation Lingyuan to fulfill his promise to "open the way" for everyone.
A four-star intermediate alchemist blew himself up, how could the power be as idle? The energy turbulence took nearly ten minutes before it slowly calmed down, and the cave in front of him was already ruined.
The torn tunnel caused everyone to fall into a deeper hole. At this depth, the sand has been replaced by rock, and the buzzing of the swarm has become more frequent. It seemed that the rocks were too solid for the worms to swim as well as they could in the sand, and the crowd even heard a clear and dense crawling sound.
"Immediately form a formation!" the Great Elder shouted without hesitation.
Just as he was about to assemble, a miserable cry suddenly sounded around the corner: "Ah...... Wow...... Ahh......hhh
Everyone subconsciously looked at it, only to see a big worm poking its head out of the stone wall and holding a warrior. The worm's head and mouth were one, and with this mouthful, it ate half of the warrior's body into its mouth. The warrior's legs struggled around his mouth, and the worm's large, round mouth shrank and expanded, and a terrifying chewing sound came from its mouth.
"Jin Yu—"
The crowd exclaimed.
After all, it was a carefully selected elite, and although he was in a desperate situation due to a sneak attack, the martial artist Jin Yu did not accept his fate. The majestic true power bubbled out of his body, and the power of martial arts was rapidly transformed under his desperate will, and it was obvious that he was about to launch a Jedi counterattack.
But to everyone's shock, the true power released by Jin Yu was extremely unstable, causing him to delay in brewing martial arts. His resistance in the worm's mouth was not strong enough, it was this short dullness, and the worm's head and neck sucked hard, and Jin Yu's whole body was swallowed into his stomach.
"Bastard—"
Everyone was furious, and several nearby warriors and alchemists simultaneously slammed into the worm, and the worm's body was opened on the spot. But its vitality was very tenacious, and half of Rao's mind was blown to pieces, and it still fled into the cave with a roar.
Jin Yu must not be able to save it, a high-level powerhouse of the Creation Realm lost his life by doing nothing. But while everyone was grieving, they couldn't figure it out: the worm's rank was not high, at most the Heavenly Xuan Realm was medium, and with Jin Yu's strength and combat experience, even if he was controlled by others, he would not even lose the ability to resist. But he can't even use martial arts, and such an ending is really unacceptable.
"This ...... Why ......"
Fear began to spread among the crowd, and Jin Feng said, "It's the worm toxin that interferes with Jin Yu's true power operation, otherwise he can't deal with a bed bug!"
The insect swarm has unconsciously besieged everyone, this time it is not only the small worms that can fly, but also the ground and the rock wall, but also crawling with dense big worms, as far as the eye can see, there is no edge, it is really broken into the Longtan tiger's den!
Everyone's Five Elements Circle was ready, Jin Li covered the bleeding wound and said, "You must be extra careful, if you let those bedbugs hurt, it will be very troublesome." ”
Looking at the countless insects, a martial artist said in a trembling voice: "These insects...... Do you really have intelligence? Lead us here first, and then set up an ambush to kill ......."
"Don't be cranky there. An elder rebuked, "Wild beasts hunt, let alone demon insects, these bed bugs are just instincts." He also encouraged the people: "Don't panic, everyone, hold the battle formation, they will not be able to help us!"
Without the sand to hide their bodies, the swarm launched a frontal assault. The Great Elder repeated his old skills, using the Flame Sword as the main attack, and the other four swords assisted and defended, with the experience of the past, this time everyone even laid a heavy defensive net under their feet.
The Flame Sword is only effective against small worms, and even if the whole body of the large worm is burned, it can still rush towards it after death. They can't be killed, but they can be killed at close range, and the venom they spill is still a big threat, forcing the Elder to change tactics and have both Earth and Wood Mages join the battlefield.
The swarm is not afraid of death, and rushes without hesitation, and the density and intensity of the battle array are also extremely high. The swarm couldn't rush in for a while, and the corpses piled up more and more on the periphery, and in just over a minute, all the caves were blocked.
It would be difficult to fight like this, and everyone knew that they couldn't afford it, but including a cadre of elders, they were at a loss for what to do about the situation in front of them.
Jin Feng and Jin Li had already begun to faint, and they knew that they would not be able to survive for long. The two of them glanced at each other at the same time, and they both saw the determination in each other's eyes!
