Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Devil's Egg
I'm sorry!I'm sorry!I'm sorry!I'm sorry!I'm sorry!
"Huh, you two, look, that's the royal egg!"
At this time, Mu Ziling also noticed the purple insect cocoon on the ventral side of the suspected candle dragon giant remains, and his expression was shocked. The little girl seems to know a lot about everything in this secret realm. As far as she was concerned, it was told to her by one of the elders in her door.
"What is a royal egg?!"
Xiao Chen then asked.
"When ordinary ghost ladybugs become adults, their strength will reach the emperor level at most, that is, the five-star insect king, and they will not be able to be promoted to the spirit level at all! Because only the insect emperor can become a spirit level creature and thus dominate the insect swarm! No wonder these insects are hidden deep in the belly of the mountain and are reluctant to move, but it is because the new generation of insect emperors is pregnant at a critical time and is about to be born!"
Mu Ziling's eyes flickered, and he explained in a low voice.
Xiao Chen was secretly speechless, he didn't expect to see such a rare creature, but for now, it would be better for them to leave this cave early, and it would be more dangerous if they stayed for a second.
Rumble!
Just as the three of them were about to leave, the entire mountain suddenly shook violently, and the countless sleeping ghost ladybugs in the cave kiln were suddenly awakened, and all of them fluttered their wings and flew up. Seeing this scene, Xiao Chen and Mu Ziling's faces suddenly turned bloodless, and just when they were about to be discovered by the insect swarm, a small gilded mirror appeared in Ai Qianyan's palm on the side.
This round mirror is shining, and at first glance it is a strange treasure.
Immediately, Ai Qianyan ran the True Yuan, and a milky white brilliance burst out from the mirror, enveloping all three of them, and then disappeared out of thin air. The three of them did not flee, but remained in the same place, but their flesh became transparent, as if there was no such void, and thousands of small insects passed through their bodies as if they were skimming through the air.
Seeing this, Xiao Chen and Mu Ziling breathed a sigh of relief, and the fear in their eyes slowly receded.
"Sister Ai, why didn't you say it earlier, it scared me to death!" Mu Ziling complained.
"There is a prohibition left by my ancestors on this Shining Sky Mirror, and with my strength, I can only urge it once, and it was originally reserved for escape. ”
Ai Qianyan was a little bitter, but she didn't expect that in this case, she would use her hole cards.
"What's going on out there?" Then the three of them came out of the cave and stood in the air.
The flesh of a few people was nothing, and it was difficult for others to see.
"That's... Those three-headed beasts just now?" Xiao Chen Ling stood high in the sky, looking in the direction where the roar came from, and saw a small oasis at the end of the deep valley. The oasis was only a few dozen meters in circumference, very small. At this time, the three behemoths were fighting non-stop beside the oasis, and the fight was very fierce, with smoke and dust flying in the sky and mud and stones splashing everywhere.
In addition to the three-headed secret realm beasts, a large number of ghost ladybugs also gathered from the sky in all directions, covering the sky and the sun, and the black oppression.
"Quenching Spirit Fruit?!"
Xiao Chen's eyes lit up, and he immediately saw a towering tree standing in the center of the oasis, the shape of this ancient tree was no different from the spiritual root with quenching spirit fruit they had seen before. It's just that the big tree in front of me is more lush and thick, more than 100 meters high.
The most striking thing is that there are more than a dozen purple fruits hanging between the branches and leaves!
In an instant, Xiao Chen's heart surged, and the two beauties on the side were also short of breath, a bumper harvest!
There were so many quenching spirit fruits, which was far beyond their expectations. No wonder I smelled a faint aroma before, it came from a deep valley, and only in the fishy cave was this diffuse aroma was particularly obvious. But right now, they can only be hot, because not to mention the swarm of ghost ladybugs that flew out in groups, even those few fierce creatures are not something they can handle.
"What should I do?" Mu Ziling looked at Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen first pondered for a moment, and then said a nonsensical word, "It looks like the insects in the cave have flown out." ”
"Well, it looks like this oasis should be the domain of the ghost ladybug. Mu Ziling nodded, then reacted and said, "What do you mean?"
After speaking, her big eyes blinked, turned her head and rushed into the wormhole, shouting: "No one is allowed to rob me, be careful of my killer!" She had already understood Xiao Chen's thoughts, and while there was no one in the belly of the mountain, Xiao Chen wanted to snatch the ghost ladybug's imperial egg.
It's just that by the time she made a move, Xiao Chen had already disappeared.
Xiao Chen was the first to enter the cave, and sure enough, when he went deep into the mountainside, there were only some larvae left in the huge stone kiln, and there was no need to worry at all.
His form was still ethereal, and the larvae around him were unaware of his presence.
Listening to the sound of breaking the sky behind him, Xiao Chen knew that Mu Ziling's girl had caught up, and then he no longer hesitated, and the whole person flew to the bottom of the skeleton like an arrow from the string, and then, with a hand, he reached out and took the insect cocoon into his arms. Then, he galloped away without turning his head, just past Mu Ziling, who had just entered the cave.
Mu Ziling didn't react for a while, she watched Xiao Chen slip away from her side, and when she came back to her senses, the larvae in the cave had already been shocked, and they all fluttered out, all chasing towards the emperor's eggs.
Xiao Chen was very clever, and as soon as he got out of the hole, he put the insect eggs into the space that he wanted to smoke, and as soon as the insect swarm saw the emperor eggs disappear, a burst of chaos scattered and began to search for them in the vast world.
After a while, Mu Ziling appeared from the wormhole, Xiao Chen was very vigilant, for fear that this girl would attack him, although after a period of time, the relationship between them was quite harmonious. But after all, with a baby, anyone may turn their faces and deny people.
Fortunately, Mu Ziling just glared at him fiercely, and there was no sign of making a move, which surprised Xiao Chen.
"Someone is coming!"
At this time, Ai Qianyan looked at the sky in the east, and saw a familiar black figure coming into the sky at a very fast speed, this person was none other than Gu Hui, who snatched the first quenching spirit fruit. Obviously, this person was also nearby, attracted by the resounding movement in the sky.
Seeing this person, Xiao Chen's hearts sank, this person's body was too terrifying, if he had the heart to grab the spirit fruit, I was afraid that the spirit fruit they could grab would be gone!
Xiao Chen was also a little depressed, the three of them had been wandering in the secret realm for several days, relying on the beast skin diagram in Mu Ziling's hand to find this dry strait, I thought that there would be no other sect disciples nearby, but now that he suddenly made a trip to bite the gold, what made him even more puzzled was that this person should not be a disciple of the five major sects, and how did he enter the secret realm?
Could it be that he himself is a person from the secret realm, a native of this place?!
"Whew!"
The roar broke through the sky, and on the oasis, the terrifying beast with a body of more than ten feet in size, resembling a wolf dog, was rolling on the ground, its body was crawling with dense black ghost ladybugs, these small insects were like a black cloth tent draped on the body of this giant beast, frantically gnawing its fur and flesh.
At the same time, a large number of insects fell off its body, and the giant wolf's breath was surrounded by electric light, and every time the dazzling lightning started, many ghost ladybugs would be scorched and fall from the sky.
The other two beasts are also battling the swarm, and the situation is not much better, and it seems that the swarm still has the upper hand.
The ghost ladybug is worthy of being a terrifying existence in the secret realm!
And the oasis that originally seemed to be peaceful was also devastated by the battle between a few giant beasts and ghost ladybugs, except for the ancient tree that was still firmly rooted in the ground, and the surrounding aura was as viscous as liquid, and the other surfaces were almost shattered.
Even if there is a fight, this group of creatures deliberately does not want to hurt the ancient tree!
Not only did Xiao Chen and the others notice this situation, but Guo Biao and the others who were hiding on the ground were also stunned, they followed Xiao Chen and the three of them all the way, but they just wanted to use a plan to separate Xiao Chen from the two immortals, and kill Xiao Chen by the way, no one expected such a mutation to happen.
"Oh my God, the insects and ants are here too?!"
Mu Ziling exclaimed.
In the middle of the night, the one-horned flying ants that he saw before entering the valley that had swallowed the tiger beast alive also flew towards the oasis in pieces, this thing is the same as the ghost ladybug, they like to go out in groups, and their power is not weaker than the ladybug army. On the battlefield, the ghost ladybug, which originally had the upper hand, suddenly began to decline because of the addition of the unicorn ant insect.
The fighting is becoming more and more intense, and it has entered a white-hot stage.
At this time, a five-colored auspicious cloud had been bred on the ancient tree, gushing out a large amount of sweet gas, obviously the quenching spirit fruit was about to ripen!
Whether it's Xiao Chen, Guo Biao and the others, several fierce beasts and insect swarms are fighting, and they can't get close at all, let alone touch the spirit fruit!
It's just that if they can't do it, it doesn't mean that others can't!
Xiao Chen, who had long noticed Gu Hui's impeachment, saw the latter's figure suddenly disappear mysteriously, and when it flashed in the next moment, it unexpectedly appeared next to the ancient tree, and Mu Ziling and Ai Qianyan, who saw this scene, were all in the air.
Not only them, but Guo Biao and others, who had planned to hide their figures all the time, also rose into the air, standing low in the air, staring at Gu Hui's impeachment with scarlet eyes, eager to swallow him alive. Every time everyone finds the Quenching Spirit Fruit, this man will appear and snatch the Spirit Fruit away!
Xiao Chen and the three of them were empty because of the Heavenly Mirror in Ai Qianyan's hand, and Guo Biao and the others didn't notice them at all. Seeing Song Zishu, Yin Wuxu and others, Xiao Chen was shocked, the secret realm is so big, and it is obviously too much of a coincidence that this group of people appeared here at this juncture.
Obviously, the other party had long known the location of the three of them, and they followed him all the way.
Mu Ziling and Ai Qianyan were also slightly angry in their eyes, and they saw through the intentions of several people.
On the treasure tree, there are only four or five spirit fruits that have ripened, and the rest are slightly green and not ripe at all. But Gu Hui didn't care about this, and directly pocketed more than a dozen spirit fruits. His appearance immediately made the fierce battlefield stand still for a moment, and in an instant, whether it was a swarm of insects or several fierce beasts, they all rushed towards him, trying to devour it.
The brilliance of Gu Hui's boots flashed under his feet, and the person disappeared out of thin air again, dodging the deadly attack, and then flew in the direction of Taniguchi, trying to escape.
"Stop him, don't let him go!"
Looking at the impeachment of Gu Hui who rushed over, Guo Biao gritted his teeth and shouted.
When the words fell, he took the lead in sacrificing a broken ancient treasure, but it was a palm-sized antique, as if a small bowl like a clay sculpture, although the bowl body had cracks, but after all, it was an ancient treasure, and the power was amazing. The small bowl spun around in the air, getting bigger and bigger, and finally levitated, heading towards the galloping Gu Hui's impeachment cover, as if to buckle it to the ground.
Seeing this, Yin Wuxi and the others on the side also took action one after another, with resolute expressions, and this time they were bound to suppress it.
In addition to Gu Hui's impeachment, there were also ghost ladybug swarms and a large number of one-horned flying ants, as well as three fierce beasts that were already covered in scales.
The situation immediately became chaotic!
