After absorbing the sword waves and sword qi emitted by everyone in turn, the giant worm's body had expanded to the limit, and it didn't move at all. At this time, Shang Xingjie sent out another sword aura.

"Shhhh

"No, it's not good!" Shang Xingjie just took a step back, only to hear a "flutter", the body of the giant insect actually exploded, and several people fell to the ground together, raising their hands to protect their faces. However, the expected scraps of meat did not hit, and the figure of the giant insect was clearly still there.

Although the figure was there, something was not quite right, and the flesh of the giant insect seemed to be twitching strangely. When a few people looked closely, it was no longer a giant worm, but thousands of small worms similar to giant worms! The way those small worms kept wriggling made people look creepy.

"It's ...... Have you given birth?" He Tianyao frowned, the expression on his face twitched unnaturally, the dense insects were too terrifying.

Gradually, the swarm began to topple, and the insects above rolled down the slope of insects below, and the speed of the roll down became faster and faster.

"It's not good, run away!" Shang Xingjie turned around and ran, and the other four people also hurriedly followed, no one wanted to be drowned by the sea of insects.

Behind everyone, the swarm of insects was like a torrent, covering the ground, walls, and even the top walls of the passage in an instant, chasing after everyone in a mighty way.

"It's me who caused the trouble!" Xiao Tianhe regretted, who would have thought that his "magic method" would lead to such a terrifying result. The group of bugs seemed to be much more ferocious than the "gentle" giant bugs, not only were they extremely fast, but they were also constantly making "sizzling" whistles, and the whistling of many bugs converged and echoed in the passage, making people shudder.

The speed of the insect swarm was even faster than the speed of several people, and the distance between insects and people was shortening inch by foot.

"Fork in the road!" Shang Xingjie, who was running at the front, shouted, and the passage that had been extending straight was divided into two roads here. The passage was originally only two people wide, but after the fork, only one person was wide. The five people had to part ways here, and apart from Shang Xingjie, the other four had no time to choose.

The final result was that Shang Xingjie turned into a fork in the road on the left. Among the two pairs of people running side by side behind them, He Tianyao and Hua Qingyu, who were running on the left, naturally entered the fork on the left, while Xiao Tianhe and Ye Linglong entered the fork in the right accordingly.

At this point, the swarm also split into two groups, and chased after the two groups of people.

Let's talk about Xiao Tianhe's side first. Ye Linglong's body style is not as good as Xiao Tianhe, after running wildly for a long time, she obviously feels weak, and her breathing has become chaotic from the initial uniformity, not to mention that the increasingly narrow fork in the road can't even wave her arms freely, which undoubtedly has a significant impact on the speed of the two.

Xiao Tianhe noticed Ye Linglong's strange appearance, and handed a hand back sideways.

"No, you'll be slowed down by me too. Ye Linglong rejected his kindness.

"What are you talking about!" Xiao Tianhe couldn't help but grab Ye Linglong's hand.

Ye Linglong struggled slightly, but didn't break free, so she let it hold. Xiao Tianhe's hands were wide and thick, and for some reason, Ye Linglong felt particularly relieved at this time.

"I rescued you with great difficulty, how could I easily throw you to those insects?"

Ye Linglong's face flushed. "What's your name?" she asked.

"Dragon Tour," Xiao Tianhe replied, "is my mother's own method." ”

"Dragon Tour" ......" Ye Linglong repeated, "It's very good." Then are your sword techniques and body techniques from Yu Lingtang?"

"Not exactly. Brother Yao and I have more than one master. Xiao Tianhe replied as he turned his head to look at the situation of the insect swarm behind him. At this time, the distance between the insect and the human is only a few feet.

When he retracted his gaze, Xiao Tianhe noticed that Ye Linglong was looking straight into his eyes, so he told her: "Don't be distracted, the insects are getting closer and closer!"

Ye Linglong "talked unabated" and continued to "chat": "Do you want to know what Tianyao told me outside the Burning Heaven Palace?"

"Absolutely. Xiao Tianhedao, "However, I don't have time to talk about this now. When we get out, you tell me slowly. ”

Ye Linglong sighed faintly: "My strength is almost exhausted, and there is no pill that can be recovered, if this continues, both of us will die here." ”

"It's not the end yet, don't give up hope!" Xiao Tianhe anxiously encouraged her.

Ye Linglong turned around and threw the torch back, and the bright light illuminated the head and tail of the insect swarm, "Fortunately, it's less than I imagined." She muttered.

"What?" Xiao Tianhe was very surprised.

Ye Linglong suddenly withdrew her hand. Because of the sweltering heat in the passage and the sweat in his palms, Xiao Tianhe couldn't catch her, so he stopped suddenly, turned around and just wanted to pull her again, but Ye Linglong slapped Xiao Tianhe's back with both palms and pushed him staggering.

"That's the last speed-up charm and defense talisman, leave me alone, run!" Ye Linglong urged while setting up a simple magic circle.

Xiao Tianhe shouted, "Don't do stupid things!" He immediately discovered that the magic circle was not set up between people and insects, but between him and her!

"Miss Ye!" Xiao Tianhe rushed towards her, but was blocked by the defensive formation.

"Call me Linglong!" Ye Linglong showed a bright smile on the other side of the magic circle, "Don't waste the opportunity I won, go quickly!"

"Why are you so stupid!"

"Let's go!" Ye Linglong was overwhelmed by the swept swarm as soon as she finished shouting. The insect swarm got the food, and instead of continuing to chase forward, they wrapped Ye Linglong in a group, forming a black "wall" in the passage.

Ye Linglong blew herself up at the last moment, and the wave of qi not only destroyed the defensive formation, but also shook Xiao Tianhe several times. Most of those strange insects were also blown apart, flesh and blood flew sideways, and some of the remaining ones didn't know if they were blown unconscious and landed

The ground didn't move.

"Aunt Ye...... Linglong!" Xiao Tianhe wiped a handful of water droplets from his face, not knowing whether those were sweat or tears. He got up, but was surprised to find the light at the exit not far ahead, and just now, it was still dark!"Do you have to wait until you are dead to appear at the exit?

......

Let's talk about another group.

He Tianyao's wonderful body method "One Qi and Three Yuan" is fundamentally "useless for heroes" in the narrow passage. Seeing that the insect swarm was getting closer and closer, he asked Hua Qingyu behind him: "Sister Qingyu, is there any oil left?"

"Try it. Hua Qingyu guessed what he wanted to do, so he threw the oil and torches behind him, and in an instant, a barrier of flames ignited in the passage.

"Those insects are all copper-headed and iron-clad, how can they be afraid of flames?" Shang Xingjie poured a basin of cold water on the two. However, the swarm's "sizzling" screams and the scorching stench that permeated the swarm proved that the swarm was not as invulnerable as he thought. Shang Xingjie was surprised: "Why, these little insects don't seem to be as powerful as that big bug!" He looked at the gap and threw a bone nail backwards, and as a result, the nail was nailed into the flesh, and several insects died under the hidden weapon.

"I knew I had brought more!" Shang Xingjie regretted. He never thought that the most effective thing at a critical moment was actually a hidden weapon. After the battle of the Tianliang layer, there was not much left of the Bone Penetration Nails, and the remaining Bone Penetration Nails in his hands were a drop in the bucket for the huge insect swarm. "What about this?" He sent out another sword qi backwards, but unexpectedly, the small insect "inherited" the ability to devour and absorb the power from the big worm, and several insects swept by the sword qi immediately "fattened" several times.

"Don't attack with sword qi!" Hua Qingyu shouted, "After absorbing the power, they will become stronger and stronger, and eventually they will become as invulnerable as giant insects!"

"Then use an attack method that doesn't use strength!" Shang Xingjie said.

"Don't use your skills, do you want to stop and slash with your sword?" He Tianyao shook his head again and again, "I'm afraid that before I cut a few swords, I will be gnawed to the point that there is no scum left!"

Shang Xingjie pondered in his stomach and asked, "Little girl, is there any poison you prepared on the previous layer?"

"Yes, yes," Hua Qingyu took out a medicine bottle, "This poison pill is extremely toxic, but it is unusable at this time!"

"Why?" Shang Xingjie and He Tianyao asked in unison.

"You have also seen that when I prepare poisons, I make them by mixing and rubbing them by hand, and if it can take effect directly, then wouldn't I have been poisoned first?"

"What do you mean...... This poison pill can't work directly?" He Tianyao said.

Hua Qingyu replied helplessly: "Yes, it has to be taken orally before it can be toxic." ”

"You used so many of my ingredients to make such a useless poison?" Shang Xingjie was extremely annoyed, "Oral...... Who will obediently listen to you and swallow poison in your stomach? It seems that although your ability to refine poison and medicine is high, your brain is not very bright!"

Hua Qingyu was extremely aggrieved: "I didn't know what the situation would be like on this layer! If it was the big-mouthed monster on the upper layer, wouldn't it be easy to throw a few poison pills into his mouth? Besides, the conditions for refining poison are limited, and combined with the materials you provide, there is only one kind of poison I can make!"

"The poison is so toxic that it must be taken orally to be effective...... It seems that Hua Jun's vein will also use despicable means such as 'poisoning'!" Shang Xingjie said sarcastically.

The master was humiliated, how could Hua Qingyu be convinced: "My Hua Junmai has entered the Tao with both poison and medicine, and my daily cultivation has always been 'medicine does not save people, poison does not harm people'." Even if it is necessary to use poison in wartime, it is directly thrown, and those indiscriminate methods of throwing wine and tea are never used. Shang Dajun Hugh wants to spend the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain!"

"Using poison is using poison, what else are you talking about 'Gao Feng Liang Festival'?" Shang Xingjie was quite disdainful.

Hua Qingyu was so angry that her face turned red.

"Sister Qingyu, don't have a war of words with him!" He Tianyao whispered comfort.

Hua Qingyu nodded and stopped talking. Looking back, he realized that the swarm was close at hand. Several insects clinging to the top wall suddenly bowed forward and pounced on Hua Qingyu's face. Hua Qingyu screamed in fright, and then was dragged forward by He Tianyao, who was quick-eyed.

It's a pity that he didn't avoid all the jumping insects after taking a step forward, and one still landed on Hua Qingyu's shoulder. The insect grunted and rolled to Hua Qingyuyu's neck, and pressed its head to take a bite. Hua Qingyu was so painful that tears flowed out, and she hurriedly reached out to pull it. But the insect seemed to be sucked on her neck, and she couldn't pull it off, and the insect was greasy and slippery, and she couldn't use her strength.

"Tianyao, hurry, hurry!" Hua Qingyu hurriedly called for help.

He Tianyao saw that the insect's body was swollen and a little red, as if it was sucking blood. "Big leech?" he suddenly remembered a blood-sucking insect he had seen when he was a child, so he reached out and slapped it around the place where the insect was under its mouth. Sure enough, after a few shots, the insect arched its body, but the head and tail were not yet separated. Hua Qingyu just put her hand under the insect body, held the insect body and pulled it hard.

"Hey, don't!" He Tianyao spoke out to stop it, but it was too late, a piece of skin and flesh was torn off along with the insects, Hua Qingyu grinned in pain, covered her neck and groaned.

"This kind of insect is similar to leeches, you can't pull it hard!" He Tianyao said urgently.

At this time, Shang Xingjie's eyes lit up, and he thought about it.

"Get out of the way!" he shouted, throwing all the remaining bone-piercing nails at the swarm.

A few insects that were about to fly down on Hua and He were hit by the piercing nails and rolled to the ground. "Ahh He Tianyao turned around and wanted to pull her, but she pushed away: "Leave me alone, go quickly!"

He Tianyao could see clearly that a bone-piercing nail was piercing Hua Qingyu's ankle, and he immediately turned his head to look at Shang Xingjie.

"Ah, how could it be ......" Shang Xingjie's face was full of innocent looks.

"He actually missed and hit his own people?" He Tianyao's head couldn't turn for a while

Come.

"Let's go!" Hua Qingyu took out the poison pill and stuffed it into her mouth without hesitation, and immediately, her figure was drowned in the surging swarm of insects.

Soon, the insects that had sucked Hua Qingyu's poisonous blood curled up and fell to the ground, turning into pools of fishy pus and blood.

After the death of the swarm, not far behind Shang Xingjie, the exit of the passage appeared.

"There, let's go!" Shang Xingjie shouted to He Tianyao, turned his head and ran towards the exit.

He Tianyao was silent, looked at the mess on the ground, and clenched his fists hard.

......

Outside the exit is another world. The passage was hot and humid, but there was frost outside, and the cold wind made the three people who rushed out of the passage feel refreshed. This is the top of the mountain, and on the flat ground not far away, it is the stone platform and gate that symbolize the passage through this layer, and the two cave entrances are at the roots of two huge rocks.

"Brother Yao!" Xiao Tianhe saw that He Tianyao was fine, and hurriedly greeted him.

He Tianyao had a gloomy face, and he was a sword at Shang Xingjie's back nest.

Shang Xingjie seemed to have expected it, raised his sword with his backhand to block it, and sneered: "Sneaking up on your companion behind is really a villain!"

"Phew! You still have the face to say that I'm a villain! No, calling you a 'villain' is an insult to the word! You well-dressed beast!" He Tianyao scolded.

"Don't be angry, what about Sister Qingyu?" Xiao Tianhe didn't see Hua Qingyu's figure, and sensed that something was wrong.

"I was killed by this sanctimonious scum!" He Tianyao was extremely sad and indignant.

Shang Xingjie brushed his sleeves and reprimanded: "What nonsense! It is clear that she sacrificed her life for righteousness and was willing to die to save us!"

"If you hadn't broken her foot, how would she have chosen such an extreme method?"

"Hmph, it was just an accident! I threw out the bone piercing nail to save the lives of the two of you, if it weren't for me, you two would have died at that time!" Shang Xingjie said vigorously.

He Tianyao pointed his sword at Shang Xingjie: "You did it on purpose! Deliberately injured Sister Qingyu's foot under the pretext of saving people, as a member of Huajunmen, of course she would think of poisoning the insect swarm with her own blood, so that you can escape! You scum!"

Shang Xingjie, as the lord of Hualin, when has he ever been scolded by someone pointing his nose like this? He said angrily: "What happens after the foot injury is her own decision, what does it have to do with me? Have I ever forced her to say a word? I am too lazy to argue with you again, if you are not polite, don't blame me for ignoring the friendship of my companions!"

Xiao Tianhe hurriedly pulled the emotional He Tianyao aside, and said angrily: "You calm down!"

"Calm down? Sister Qingyu was killed by him, tell me how to calm down! Aren't you going to fight? Come on! Everyone is at the level of two instruments, who is afraid of whom? Brother Tianxiao, don't stop me, when we get out of the Burning Heaven Palace, we will not be his opponents!"

These words made Shang Xingjie's heart "chuckle", indeed, everyone here is at the level of two instruments, if you really start to do it, Xiao Tianhe will definitely face his brothers, and he will inevitably suffer a big loss with one enemy and two enemies. "No, you must not do it with the two of them here!" Shang Xingjie said secretly in his heart. However, after leaving the Burning Heaven Palace, will it be safe? Shang Xingjie still remembered that when he was in the Heavenly Prison, Cai Yunping just put the fairy sword on Hua Qingyu's neck, and the mysterious "ten-level master" took action to shake the fairy sword into powder. Now that Hua Qingyu is dead, He Tianyao will tell himself to the mysterious master like this, how can there be good fruits to eat? Thinking about it, Shang Xingjie broke out in a cold sweat behind his back. "It seems...... You have to find a way to get rid of these two people in the Burning Heaven Palace......" Shang Xingjie blurred his eyes, stroked his beard, and secretly calculated, "Since he died in the Burning Heaven Palace, that master can't blame me, right?" In this way, the last treasure belongs to me alone, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone...... It's just that for now, I should ease the atmosphere and use the power of the two of them to help me pass through the seventh and eighth floors. ”

"Alas......" Shang Xingjie shook his head, let out a long sigh, and walked in front of He Tianyao, "Little brother, please don't be impatient." I really didn't mean to harm the flower girl, maybe it was a momentary mistake in the urgency of saving people? Just now you blindly blamed me, and I was also unwilling, so I quarreled with you for a few words. Now that I think about it, I feel guilty. Although I didn't kill the flower girl, she died because of me after all. At the last moment, she didn't forget to save the two of us, she died a great death, and the old man remembered it in his heart. It's just that we have survived, but we have to fight to the death again, wouldn't we live up to her kindness?"

He Tianyao was stunned, he didn't expect Shang Xingjie to say these words at all.

Shang Xingjie "struck while the iron was hot": "Since entering the Burning Heaven Palace, the companions have fallen one after another, leaving only the three of us stumbling to this point, it is not easy! Besides, now you and I are still in the Burning Heaven Palace, the difficulties behind us still have to work together and help each other, it is better to shake hands and make peace!" He stretched out his hand.
