Chapter 19: The Purple Scorpion I
"What is it?" Xue Mengyi was a little nervous, and gently took two steps back in the direction of Ye Hengyuan, raised her hands, and withdrew the Colorful Bright Light Stone, protecting the entire team. A golden curtain of light enveloped the bodies of the five people.
The noise grew louder and louder, and gradually spread from the front of the five people to the left and right. Countless bushes began to shake and make rhythmic sounds, as if an infinite number of things had emerged from them. The fog suddenly became a little thicker, and the color became darker and darker, starting from gray to lilac, and there were a few irregular puffs of dark purple gas.
"Hum-whoosh!" Ye Hengyuan handed Fang Tianhald to his left hand, and waved his right hand outward. A spiral-shaped column of air jetted out from the palm of his right hand, shooting out dozens of meters away, scattering in all directions, forcibly dispersing the fog within a few tens of meters in front of him.
The bushes and lawns in front of us were largely turned over. One by one, purple-black scorpions crawled out of the ground, or out of the depths of the bushes. There are at least hundreds of these scorpions, ranging in size from the size of a newborn baby to the size of an adult's palm. They are light purple all over, with black patterns on their backs, dark purple on their two front chelae, and black tips on their tips. Their tails are all raised high, the small ones have three segments, the large ones have four or five segments, and at the end is a dark purple hook that faintly bumps purple gas. The purple qi in the mist just now was exactly what they emitted.
These purple-black scorpions naturally divided into three parts, and slowly advanced forward in a fan shape, * towards Ye Hengyuan.
"What is this?" Ji Chengdong was confused again.
"It's the Purple Demon Scorpion," Wang He lowered his head slightly, holding the thorn shield with both hands, "A group of spirit beasts." Dark attributes. Poisonous. Good at releasing poison gas. β
"There are no third-order or higher in this group," Ye Hengyuan withdrew his right hand and changed to holding the halberd with both hands again, "They have no attack ability other than poison gas." Little dream, ready to shoot. β
"Okay!" Xue Mengyi agreed, raised her hands at the same time, and shot out seven golden rays of light from each palm, injecting them into the colorful bright light stone. The seven-colored bright stone slowly floated up, and the seven-colored light flashed alternately.
The Purple Demon Scorpion swarm was delayed for a second at the same time, each slowing down by at least half a beat. The light attribute and the fire attribute are their two major nemesis. Despite being in a dark attribute environment that was favorable to them, a high-grade light attribute martial spirit could still bring them a lot of coercion.
Wang He held up the tiger-striped thorn shield and smashed it to the ground. Each spike on the shield doubled in size and shrouded in a maroon glow. Ji Chengdong also released his holy water bowl, but he didn't make a move immediately.
Little by little, the purple scorpions pushed forward, their four little legs slowly stirring up the dead grass and soil underground. The color of their tail hooks is getting stronger and stronger, gradually changing from purple to black. The purple qi in the fog also became deeper and deeper. The distance between them and Ye Hengyuan's five people is getting closer and closer.
"Up!" Wang He shouted, clenching the shield with both hands, and slammed it into the ground again, stomping his right foot on the spot. A seismic wave instantly spread out, rushing towards the dozen or so small purple demon scorpions at the front. The dozen or so purple demon scorpions were instantly shocked and flew upside down towards their companions behind.
Just as Wang He struck this blow, Ye Hengyuan and Fan Junfeng rushed up from the left and right sides at the same time. Two crescent-shaped wind blades slashed out from the main blade of the dragon-patterned Heavenly Halberd, heading straight for the two small groups of purple demon scorpions.
"Boom!" Two sharp tearing sounds rang out. The two wind blades passed through the middle of the two small piles of purple scorpions at the same time, opening a path in the middle of the purple scorpion group, and also dispersing the purple-black poisonous mist that was about to condense and form in the sky above them. Five or six weaker small purple demon scorpions were directly cut in half by it.
At this moment, the colorful bright stone shines at the same time. Seven golden rays as thick as an adult's arm flew out, each hitting a large purple demon scorpion.
The seven purple demon scorpions that were shot let out a miserable scream at the same time, and fell straight to the ground, a purple-black mist rose up and down their bodies, their bodies kept twitching, and the color of their whole bodies became lighter and lighter, and they died in less than a minute.
Immediately after, Ye Hengyuan and Fan Junfeng just rushed in front of the Purple Demon Scorpion Group. Ye Hengyuan swung out a halberd and directly pierced a purple demon scorpion. Fan Junfeng also swung two claws in a row, grabbing the other large purple demon scorpion to pieces.
All the purple scorpions showed panic and quickly retreated, gathering together. The poisonous mist of the big canopy erupted from their mouthparts, straight to Ye Hengyuan and Fan Junfeng.
Ji Chengdong also took two steps forward quickly, his right hand was propped up, and his left hand waved forward. A stream of water floated up from the holy water bowl, instantly blocking the sky above Ye Hengyuan and Fan Junfeng, and went down the stream, turning into an oval water curtain, blocking all the poisonous mist spit out by the purple demon scorpion.
Wang He jumped up and jumped directly into the purple demon scorpion group, and another seismic wave shook the entire purple demon scorpion group away, and then lifted the heavy shield again, and smashed it fiercely into a big purple demon scorpion that rushed towards him, smashing more than a dozen holes in its back.
Xue Mengyi stood still, holding the seven gems in a regular manner. The seven gemstones move like shining stars in the night sky, staggering and casting a continuous stream of colorful light. Every ray of light can take away the life of at least one purple demon scorpion.
Ye Hengyuan and Fan Junfeng also exerted their strength at the same time, and the blue light and black fog burst out at the same time. In an instant, the corpses of dozens of purple demon scorpions had fallen to the ground, and purple-black blood splattered all over the ground, corroding a lot of turf.
The Purple Devil Scorpion Group panicked a little and began to fight and retreat. A dozen or so larger purple scorpions quickly retreated, gathering together to form a ball, while spitting out a mouthful of venom diagonally in front of them. The dozen or so mouthfuls of venom quickly condensed in the air, condensing into a purple-black and dark green ball of venom, and crashed straight into the water curtain released by Ji Chengdong.
"Bang-" The water curtain shattered in response, turning into countless drops of purple-black poisonous water, scattered and splashed in all directions.
"Hmm-" Ji Chengdong took three steps back, a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and he held his chest with his left palm, panting heavily. The three slightly larger purple demon scorpions suddenly jumped upβto be exact, they should have been held up by their companions under them, and instantly burst out with a speed that was completely inconsistent with their own size, swung two large claws with toxin, and flew straight towards Ye Hengyuan and Fan Junfeng, who were struggling to kill the little purple demon scorpion.
"Be careful!" Wang He suddenly raised his head and shouted, releasing a seismic wave again, which shook both sides of Ye Hengyuan and Fan Junfeng.
Xue Mengyi also hurriedly waved his left hand, and the two nearest bright light stones attacked the three purple demon scorpions.
The green-gold and blue-gold light shot at the two purple scorpions on the left and right at the same time, but it didn't kill them immediately, but only blocked their attack. The purple demon scorpion in the middle just passed through the middle of the two rays of light and fell directly towards Fan Junfeng's left shoulder.
"Junfeng, be careful!" Ye Hengyuan turned around suddenly, waved Fang Tian's halberd with his right hand, and slapped two small purple demon scorpions, turning around to be a big purple demon scorpion that popped out of his hand and hit the air.
Fan Junfeng also just reacted, gritted his teeth hard, and fell backwards, trying to dodge the pounce of the Great Purple Demon Scorpion. But at this moment, the right claw of the Great Purple Demon Scorpion suddenly doubled. A purple-black wave blade flew out of the right chela, just past Fan Junfeng's left shoulder. Fan Junfeng's clothes were torn open in an instant, and a purple-black wound was revealed.
In the next second, the condensation bomb exploded on its back, shattering the scales on its back and sending it flying.
"Junfeng!" Ye Hengyuan quickly ran in the direction of Fan Junfeng. Fan Junfeng gritted his teeth, covered his left shoulder, and forcibly stood up from the ground. The wolf's claws had been withdrawn into his body, and bits and pieces of blood oozed from his fingers and ran down his arm.
The blue-gold and purple-gold light shot over in time, repelling the few small purple demon scorpions that pounced on them. Ye Hengyuan grabbed Fan Junfeng and pulled him in the direction of Wang He and Xue Mengyi. Ji Chengdong stepped up in time and condensed an absorption shield.
"Are you alright?" Xue Mengyi shouted in surprise.
"Xiaomeng, don't worry about it!" Ye Hengyuan suddenly raised his voice and shouted loudly, "You continue to attack!
"That's right!" Wang He didn't look back, and flew a few purple demon scorpions that pounced on him, "Can't delay!"
Xue Mengyi was stunned for a moment, then took a closer look at Ye Hengyuan's face before releasing a round of golden light, and suppressed the dozen or so purple demon scorpions in the front row with Wang He. At this time, the five of them had already killed nearly half of the Purple Demon Scorpions, but the rest seemed to be getting braver and braver, and the attack became more and more fierce.
"Junfeng, quick!"
Ye Hengyuan put his hand into the leather bag on his waist, ready to get the antidote.
But Fan Junfeng shook his head, clenched his right hand into a fist, condensed a large ball of black spiritual power, and then slammed his fist on his wound. Just listening to the sound of "wow", a mouthful of reverse blood spurted out of his mouth. Then, his wound immediately stopped bleeding and was sealed by a black spiritual power.
"No...... Mind me, you ...... Kill first!"
"Thorn-stab--"
Two loud noises, at least twice as loud as the previous ones, came from the two largest bushes in front of them. Immediately after, two larger giant purple demon scorpions emerged from inside. The two giant purple demon scorpions are nearly two meters long and nearly one and a half meters high, their tailbones and front chelae are completely pitch black, and the patterns on their bodies are more and denser, and even their mouthparts are covered with patterns. On their backs, they each have a pair of small fan-shaped wings
