Heaven-Swallowing Demon Insect! (4K)
Besides Lin Xuantong, Immortal Maiden Ruan Qi from the Profound Maiden Palace also made an appearance.
This is a trap set for the Blood Sea Hall.
Now that Lin Xuantong arrived, Lu Changsheng no longer needs to use the precious Ancestral Dragon Blood Pill.
However, Lin Xuantong arrived too quickly, as if he knew in advance that Song Tianfang Lin Xuantong lead the Blood Sea Hall experts to ambush Lu Changsheng and his group, and then turned the tables on them, surrounding Song Tianfang and the other two Blood Sea Hall Guardian.
Even though the Blood Sea Hall has gathered many Demons from the Immortal Realm, the number of Great Demons at the Guardian level is not large. If three Guardians are lost, it will inevitably affect the Blood Sea Hall's future operations.
The many Demons of the Blood Sea Hall, who were surrounded, turned deathly pale.
Song Tianfang and Lin Xuantong were roughly equal in strength, but this time, Lin Xuantong also brought the Household Ancestor Lin and the Jiang Clan Ancestor. These two had cultivated for hundreds of millions of years and were ranked on the God King Ranking. Song Tianfang was no match for them at all.
The Household Ancestor Lin said, "Song Tianfang, the Kunlun Holy Land owed you something back then, but you also killed many Elders and disciples of the Kunlun Holy Land. Now, it's not too late to abandon your evil ways and turn back to the right path."
The Jiang Clan Ancestor, with his fiery temper, said, "There's no need to waste words with him. He dares to target our Taihua Sacred Ground while he's in Qianyuan Grotto-Heaven. Only blood will do. Killing him is like killing the goose that lays the golden eggs."
At this moment, Lu Changsheng transmitted his voice to Lin Xuantong: "This place is a bit strange..."
Lu Changsheng briefly described what happened, especially the High Antiquity Demon Worm manipulating the corpses of the Elders of the Lianshan Holy Land.
"High Antiquity Demon Worm?"
Lin Xuantong cautiously looked into the depths of the Life-Ending Valley, where a terrifying High Antiquity Insect King might be lurking.
This was beyond Lin Xuantong's expectations.
This realization filled even the Household Ancestor Lin and Jiang Clan Ancestor with dread.
The fact that the High Antiquity Demon Worm devoured the internal organs of Elder of the Lianshan Holy Land and then manipulated his corpse was already horrifying. But the fact that the corpse manipulated by the High Antiquity Demon Worm served the Blood Sea Hall made it even more bizarre.
Song Tianfang scanned the people from Taihua Sacred Ground: "Although you tricked me, there's one thing, Lin Xuantong, you miscalculated. The fact that our Blood Sea Hall dared to set up Branch Hall in the Life-Ending Valley shows that our Blood Sea Hall has some connection with the Life-Ending Valley."
As soon as Song Tianfang finished speaking, a terrifying aura emanated from the depths of the Life-Ending Valley, its Demon Qi soaring to the sky. This aura seemed to originate from the Primordial Era.
The two prominent figures, the Household Ancestor Lin and the Jiang Clan Ancestor, both had long been renowned, and their expressions were unusually serious at this moment.
There are reasons why the Life-Ending Valley is listed as one of the Forbidden Grounds in the Immortal Realm.
In High Antiquity times, the major High Antiquity Sects joined forces to besiege the Insect King of Life-Ending Valley. As a result, millions of Sects experts perished here, including some High Antiquity Great Expert.
If the Blood Sea Hall is truly connected to the Life-Ending Valley, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"This Demon Qi is truly terrifying."
"Could it be a demonic insect at the level of Demon King?"
"If that were to exist, wouldn't our situation be extremely dangerous?"
The Elders and disciples of the Taihua Sacred Ground were in a state of panic.
The Demon Qi deep within the Life-Ending Valley was truly astonishing; they had probably never seen such Demon Qi in their entire lives.
"When did the Insect King reappear in Life-Ending Valley?"
Immortal Maiden Ruan Qi is from the Profound Maiden Palace. Although she is a genius born after the High Antiquity War, the Profound Maiden Palace's Scripture Repository contains a large number of High Antiquity books that record the process of Human Race Xiuzhenzhe in the Lower Realm working together to exterminate the demonic insects of the Life-Ending Valley.
The High Antiquity Insect King at that time had already been killed by the Sect Master of the Heavenly Sect.
Over the long years, the demonic insects in the Life-Ending Valley devoured each other, and the strong became stronger, eventually leading to the emergence of Insect King.
Even Immortal Maiden Ruan Qi was trembling.
The High Antiquity Insect King requires the personal intervention of the Sect Master of the Heavenly Sect to be killed.
If the Chief Grand Disciple of the Sect Master of the Heavenly Sect is stronger than the Taihua Sword Maiden, who Sequence fifth in the High Antiquity Profound Maiden Palace, then the strength of the Sect Master of the Heavenly Sect must be even more unfathomable.
As the opponent of the Sect Master of the Heavenly Sect, the High Antiquity Insect King's strength might even surpass that of the Twelve Sword Maidens.
The strength of the Insect King that has now emerged in the Life-Ending Valley is unknown.
Yun Qianyue gazed into the depths of the Life-Ending Valley, her Black Hair swaying as if recalling the past.
"That Demon Qi... it really is a descendant of the High Antiquity Insect King. Perhaps it's already close to having half the cultivation level of the High Antiquity Insect King."
"Such Demon Qi, and he's only half-cultivated?"
Lu Changsheng sensed the immense demonic Demon Qi deep within the Life-Ending Valley.
This Demon Qi was far stronger than that of the Household Ancestor Lin and Jiang Clan Ancestors, yet it was still less than half the cultivation level of the High Antiquity Insect King.
Just how powerful was the cultivation of the High Antiquity Insect King, who was once killed by the Sect Master of the Heavenly Sect?
"Do it!"
Knowing that there was no time to lose, the Jiang Clan Ancestor summoned his Immortal Sword and slashed at Song Tianfang.
The Jiang Clan Ancestor unleashed his Fifth Sword Realm, and the power of this strike was ten times that of the Fifth Sword Realm that Lu Changsheng had used before!
"The Cultivation Method recorded in the third chapter of the Fifth Sword Realm's Mnemonic?"
Lu Changsheng took the opportunity to witness the power of the Mnemonic following the Fifth Sword Realm.
Veins bulged on Song Tianfang's forehead as he gathered a large amount of True Qi: "Myriad Laws Return to Emptiness!"
The Spacetime in front of Song Tianfang collapsed, forming a huge Spacetime vortex that tried to shatter the Sword Qi of the Jiang Clan Ancestor.
"An ant trying to shake a tree!"
With a cold snort, the Jiang Clan Ancestor unleashed his Sword Qi, which transformed into a black dragon that swept away everything in its path with overwhelming force!
Boom!
The Spacetime vortex collapsed and shattered into pieces.
The sharp Sword Qi struck Song Tianfang, tearing his blood-stained robe and instantly revealing dozens of sword marks on his body, as well as some burn marks.
"This is the true power of the Taihua Sacred Ground's Sect-Guarding Sword Art; it's truly astonishing."
Song Tianfang withstood an attack from the Jiang Clan Ancestor, and was almost killed by him.
Jiang Hong, the Jiang Clan Ancestor, was the junior brother of the Household Ancestor Lin. He had a bad temper, but his strength was beyond doubt.
The Jiang Clan Ancestor has already mastered the first three chapters of the Fifth Sword Realm Mnemonic, second only to the High Antiquity Ancestor and the Household Ancestor Lin.
Having learned of the Jiang Clan Ancestor's strength, Song Tianfang waved his blood-red cloak, gathered all the Blood Sea Hall Elders into his Inner Space, and fled into the depths of the Life-Ending Valley.
"Die!"
The Jiang Clan Ancestor was not willing to let his opponent off easily. He unleashed another sword strike, a vast Sword Qi that stretched for thousands of feet, severing Spacetime, Fortune, and Cause and Effect, and pointing directly at Song Tianfang.
Just as Song Tianfang was about to perish, a demonic insect with Twelve Pairs of Wings tore through space, its black carapace blocking the Sword Qi.
The Sword Qi of the Jiang Clan Ancestor repelled the demonic insect several hundred steps, but it only left a bloody gash on the insect's body, from which emerald green blood flowed.
However, this demonic insect possessed extremely strong vitality, and its wounds healed quickly. Its emerald green compound eyes stared at the group from the Taihua Sacred Ground, sending chills down their spines.
A deathly silence.
The Elders and disciples of the Taihua Sacred Ground didn't dare to utter a sound.
This demonic insect withstood the full force of the Jiang Clan Ancestor's sword strike, yet it was only injured, and the wound healed rapidly, remaining unaffected.
"Hey."
Song Tianfang came up behind the demonic insect and couldn't help but sneer.
The Insect King of Life-Ending Valley is ten times more powerful than the Household Ancestor Lin and the Jiang Clan Ancestor.
Moreover, this is the Life-Ending Valley, where the Insect King possesses an endless army of High Antiquity Demon Worm.
The Insect King's compound eyes flashed with an eerie light, and the forests within a million miles of Life-Ending Valley suddenly stirred, with a dense, noisy cacophony of insect chirps that sent chills down one's spine.
The group from Taihua Sacred Ground felt as if they were in a Zerg nest.
The High Antiquity Demon Worm the Life-Ending Valley are as weak as mortals. Most of them have a cultivation level of less than that of Earth Immortal. However, the High Antiquity Demon Worm here are endless. Even God King would perish when faced with the terrifying insect army because he would run out of True Qi.
The Grand Supreme Elders of the God King Realm in the Lianshan Holy Land was devoured by an endless army of insectoids, exhausting his True Qi and having his internal organs eaten up by the insectoids, before being manipulated by demonic insects.
Yun Qianyue said, "The High Antiquity Insect King of the Life-Ending Valley is one of the Great Expert of the High Antiquity Demon Race, on Great Expert with the Dragon Clan like the Zhulong Ancestor, the Eight Desolate Fire Dragon, and the World-Destroying Black Dragon. Its terrifying aspect lies not in the overwhelming power of the Eight Desolate Fire Dragon and the World -World-Destroying Black Dragon, but in its tenacious vitality and endless army of insects. In a sense, the High Antiquity Insect King is far more troublesome than the Zhulong Ancestor and the Eight Desolate Fire Dragon. My advice is—run!"
Yun Qianyue has not yet recovered her cultivation level from when she was alive, and she is already preparing to leave.
"Escape."
The first reaction of the Household Ancestor Lin and Jiang Clan Ancestors was not to confront the Insect King head-on, but to realize that the manpower of the Taihua Sacred Ground was simply not enough to wipe out the billions of demonic insects in the Life-Ending Valley.
From within the dense forest, countless demonic insects flew out, a vast, dark mass that blotted out the sky, like a boundless ocean, threatening to devour everyone.
Among these demonic insects were High Antiquity centipedes, spiders, and poisonous bees whose combat power was comparable to that of the Great Luo Golden Immortal Realm or Immortal Emperor Realm, surrounded by a dark purple Poison Mist.
The Elders and disciples of the Taihua Sacred Ground had no choice but to grit their teeth, unleash their Law Treasures, and follow behind Lin Xuantong, trying to fight their way out of the Life-Ending Valley.
"Bright and blazing sun, vanquish evil spirits! Urgent as the Law Commands!"
With a soft shout, Lin Qinghan summoned the Taihua Divine Parasol. This Law Treasure was surrounded by flames and radiant with light. The High Antiquity Demon Worm that were illuminated by the divine light fell down in droves.
However, the High Antiquity Demon Worm killed by Lin Qinghan were merely a drop in the ocean.
The High Antiquity Demon Worm of the Life-Ending Valley number in the trillions.
It was precisely because of the terrifying number of demonic insects in the Life-Ending Valley that the Heavenly Sect joined forces with other Sects to eradicate the Insect King of the Life-Ending Valley and exterminate it.
The terrifying scene before him reminded Lu Changsheng of the fierce battle that the Heavenly Sect fought to annihilate the High Antiquity Insect King.
"We've discovered its existence; it's trying to kill us all to prevent word from getting out."
Lin Xuantong gripped a Divine Sword, continuously unleashing Sword Qi thousands of feet long, carving out blank spaces in the dark swarm of insects in front of him, but the endless demonic insects quickly filled the blank spaces.
Immortal Maiden Ruan Qi gripped a deep blue immortal Immortal Sword, its Sword Qi surging, tearing the High Antiquity Demon Worm that approached her to pieces. "This Insect King should be a descendant of the High Antiquity Insect King, but it hasn't reached its peak yet. If it grows to the level of the High Antiquity Insect King, it will become a great threat to the Immortal Realm. We must eliminate it before it reaches its full potential."
"What? Its Demon Race True Form isn't even fully developed yet?"
The Taihua Sacred Ground Elder were even more astonished upon hearing this.
This Insect King single-handedly annihilated everyone present at the Taihua Sacred Ground. Such terrifying combat power, and it wasn't even at the Great Completion stage?
"According to the records of our Profound Maiden Palace, the High Antiquity Insect King of the Life-Ending Valley is the Heaven-Swallowing Demon Insect, one of the earliest beings at the beginning of the creation of heaven and earth. It can devour other demonic insects and continuously advance in rank. Once it reaches its full potential, only a handful of people in the entire Immortal Realm can contend with it."
Immortal Maiden Ruan Qi swung her sword repeatedly, severing a million demonic insects in two.
The corpses of the slain demonic insects were quickly devoured by their own kind.
Eternal Ages Shared Sorrow!
Lu Changsheng unleashed nine immortal Immortal Swords, using Sword Formation to annihilate the demonic insects.
The giant Sword Formation operated like a meat grinder, Sword Formation and killing billions of demonic insects.
"The Sun and Moon Shine Together!"
Shen Xiaoyao and Tang Ling’er activated their Dual Cultivation Method, using their Pure Yang Body and Pure Yin Body True Qi to bombard the sea of insects, causing swarms of demonic insects to perish.
"These are all excellent materials for practicing martial arts..."
Luo Xintang, a second-generation disciple of Azure Cloud Peak, cultivated the Poison Sect's Cultivation Method. Taking advantage of this opportunity, she used a Treasure Bottle to continuously collect High Antiquity Demon Worm.
The High Antiquity Demon Worm of Life-Ending Valley have all been summoned by the Insect King, making this a perfect opportunity to collect High Antiquity Demon Worm.
Each Elder and disciple Divine Abilities, and countless demonic insects perished every moment.
However, the group remained trapped in the sea of insects, their True Qi constantly draining away.
Compared to the boundless swarm of insects, the demonic insects killed by the group from Taihua Sacred Ground were merely a drop in the ocean.
Many Elders and disciples looked on in despair.
The Life-Ending Valley is a Forbidden Grounds place, far too dangerous.
"The Heaven-Swallowing Demon Insects are manipulating the swarm of insects; unless the Insect King is killed, they are impossible to kill or eradicate."
Yun Qianyue had witnessed the Sect Master of the Heavenly Sect slay the High Antiquity Insect King and knew the way to break the curse.
Only then did the Household Ancestor Lin, the Jiang Clan Ancestor, Lin Xuantong, and others notice Lu Changsheng's newly accepted disciple.
This woman from the Earth Immortal Realm has such astonishing knowledge.
The Household Ancestor Lin smiled bitterly, "This Insect King has lived since High Antiquity and is already Changsheng Never Dies. The Heaven-Swallowing Demon Insect's vitality is extremely tenacious. Even if we fight to the death, we cannot kill it."
While everyone was battling the horde of insects summoned by the Insect King, an old woman appeared on a mountain peak outside the Life-Ending Valley: "I never imagined that the Insect King of the Life-Ending Valley would actually have descendants."
With a gesture, an Immortal Sword shot into the sky.
"The Fifth Sword Realm: Sword Intent Wuji!"
The old woman's cloudy eyes suddenly brightened, as if Kumu life, and her aura suddenly intensified.
The entire Sword Domain stretches for thousands of miles!
The sword intent is boundless!
"Cut!"
The old woman wielded her immortal Immortal Sword, and the Wuji Sword Qi cleaved the vast sea of insects in two, reducing billions of demonic insects to ashes.
The group, who were engaged in a fierce battle, were shocked to discover that a large blank space had appeared in the dark swarm of insects. This large blank space was due to the Spacetime Imprisonment at the boundary, and the insect swarm could not fill the blank space in a short time.
"Come out."
The old woman's voice echoed in the minds of the Household Ancestor Lin, the Jiang Clan Ancestor, Lin Xuantong, Lu Changsheng, and others.
"Let's go."
Taking advantage of the opportunity, the people of Taihua Sacred Ground rode their Flying Swords and rushed out of the sea of insects, breaking out in a cold sweat.
The group of experts from the Taihua Sacred Ground almost suffered total annihilation in the Life-Ending Valley.
"As expected, it was our ancestor who made the move."
The Household Ancestor Lin was still shaken.
It was the High Antiquity Ancestor of the Taihua Sacred Ground who, with his astonishing Sword Art, cleaved a path to survival for everyone amidst the sea of insects.
"This is the highest realm of the Fifth Sword Realm..."
This was the first time Lu Changsheng had witnessed the High Antiquity Ancestor using the Fifth Sword Realm. It seemed that he was still quite far from reaching the Great Perfection Realm himself.
