"Squeak—"

Just as Liang En and the others turned the last bend in the tunnel, the originally calm pool suddenly became noisy, and the calm water surface was windless, and a piercing grinding sound came from it.

At the same time, a small hillock slowly rose in the middle of the pool, and the hillock rose higher and higher, and finally cracked open, revealing the existence that had been hidden in it.

"......Shh

Three hundred years of cultivation had allowed him to have a physical strength far beyond that of ordinary people, including some special vision, which allowed him to "see" the thing emerging from the pool in a cave where there was almost no light.

A strange-looking ant with a huge belly was emerging from a pool of slime at the bottom of the cave, two pairs of broken wings on its back vibrating rapidly, making a screeching sound.

At first glance, the bug floating out of the pool of slime doesn't seem to look like a monster, and even looks a little inconspicuous when soaked in the huge pool.

But considering that this slime pool is about the size of two standard swimming pools, the bugs take up even a small part of the pool and are roughly more than 15 meters long.

The giant bug had a shell glowing with black metal and six long thorny legs, each with the tip as sharp as an armor-piercing cone, dripping slime from the tip.

Because it had just risen from the blue slime, the monster was covered in disgusting-looking slime, so much detail on its body could not be seen beyond its appearance.

Fortunately, after further concentrating on observation, Liang En discovered through the occasionally exposed part of the mucus gap on the insect's body that the mirror-like shell on the insect was not a single piece, but was composed of countless tiny scales the size of a palm.

These tiny scales are arranged on the insect's body in a form full of orderly beauty, enveloping almost all of the insect's body like scale armor, taking into account both defense and flexibility.

The other party's ugly head with large claws has a pair of compound eyes peculiar to insects, and the dense small eyes on the top are full of evil and make people shudder.

Whew-

As soon as the bug's head left the liquid in the pool, several clouds of liquid with a faint rancid smell flew out of the bug's mouth and shot at Liang and them, trying to kill Liang and them with a covering attack.

This idea was obviously in the right direction, but the number of liquid balls launched by this bug was indeed less, and the speed of flight was too slow, so Liang En and the others easily dodged and took the opportunity to launch a counterattack almost at the same time.

I saw a gray light shoot from Liang En's fingertips to the wall next to him, and in an instant, five or six rock thorns the thickness of a small arm were born on the wall, and a swirling wind wrapped in it flew towards the monster.

This is one of the techniques that Liang En developed during this time combining alchemy and soul magic, using the power of alchemy to quickly create entities, and then summoning the power of the wind to give them powerful kinetic energy and some spiritual power to kill.

Compared with ordinary spells, this spell consumes less spiritual power, but it requires extremely high precision for the manipulation of spiritual power, and only people like Liang En can use this kind of spell on a daily basis.

However, the overall power of this spell is still insufficient, but because of the fast launch speed and the comprehensive nature of the attack, it is still a good starting method as a temptation.

Ao Lei next to her also used a spell of the same nature, only to see her raise her hand slightly, a cloud of mist enveloped her, and then more than a dozen water arrows like silk threads shot out of the mist, and then turned into ice crystals and flew towards the monster.

Although there were more than a dozen attacks, the effect was not ideal, neither the ice arrow nor the stone cone could leave too many traces on the opponent's chitin shell.

The faces of the two men instantly turned ugly, although they were only tentatively attacking, but the force was enough to easily cut through the steel plate and split the rock, but it only created a wound less than two centimeters deep on the insect's body.

Obviously, this strange ant-like insect has an amazing defense. Fortunately, because of the two hits, the shock fell

There was a large amount of mucus on Fang's body, allowing the other party to reveal his true face that was originally hidden under the slime.

It looked like a distorted queen, though its limbs and body looked much thicker and stronger. Good maneuverability, but the huge belly clearly shows the identity of the other party.

On top of that, Liang En found that the carapace on the other party's body was not as complete and powerful as he had imagined, but had a large number of mottled scars, and he could even see through the scars that had turned gray-white carrion.

At the same time, because of the lack of those slime covers, a rotten aura that belongs to the dead emanates from the body of the monster in front of him, and the temperature around him has dropped several degrees at once.

"Divine corpse!" Liang En immediately understood what this thing was, it was obvious that the original owner of this cave was dead, but some power was reborn in his dead body.

Fortunately, the owner of this cave heaven dispersed most of the power in his body into the entire cave sky, so the level of the divine corpse that appeared in front of Liang En also dropped several notches, and even their tentative attacks were able to leave traces on it.

Even so, this monster in front of them was not the type that Liang En could easily destroy.

Don't look at this guy, he doesn't seem to be very fast, and his overall reaction is not much different from ordinary people. But if you take into account the huge size of the other party, it is enough to crush most of the existence.

After a few confrontations with each other, neither side was able to take advantage of them - Liang En's moves hitting the god corpse were no different from gua sha, and the god corpse kept firing various spells and couldn't hit Liang En and them.

However, the aura emanating from those avoided moves also made Liang En and Ao Lei break out in a cold sweat - because they could feel that these powers contained a trace of divinity were enough to severely damage or even kill them with a single move.

"Squeak—"

After finding that he had failed several times, the body belonging to a certain insect god made a sharp sound as it rubbed its wings again, and then its tail began to discharge one egg after another.

"Don't let these eggs hatch!"

Nervous, Ao Lei thrust the tail end of the spear into the ground, and in the next moment, waves mixed with ice-blue ice rushed towards the insects and eggs.

Liang En also realized that the situation was wrong at this time, he quickly converted the sword into sword light, and then turned into a bolt of lightning and shot at the corpse of the insect god with the input of spiritual power.

It's a pity that they were still a step too late, and the corpse of the insect god, who realized that the situation was wrong, instantly ignited the two eggs that hatched, and then formed a black-green fog barrier to wrap themselves.

Although the blue waves of ice and the golden sword qi destroyed this fog barrier the most, they were also greatly weakened:

The ice wave only weakened the strength of the opponent's carapace, and the sword light that could have cut the insect in two only cut a wound more than 5 long on the opponent's body, and the internal organs could be seen.

This wound would be fatal if placed on a human, but when placed on a fifteen-meter-long insect god's corpse, it would at most only slow down the opponent's movement.

However, this blow also angered the corpse of the insect god, and I saw it shake its head vigorously to get rid of the inconvenience caused by the wound on its back, and then rushed towards the location where Liang En was.
