So if they did not collect the bug corpses, the Insect Nest could endlessly devour the life force and energy of the dead Insect Race, then hatch even more bugs.
This intelligence had come from Li Baxian. Before the battle began, Lu Ye had specifically reminded everyone of this: they had to collect the bug corpses. To that end, every cultivator had sorted through their Storage Bag, ensuring that each team had several empty Storage Bags.
The bugs within the Insect Nest were generally quite strong. Tier Three and Tier Four were everywhere, Tier Five and Tier Six were not uncommon either, while Tier Seven were not too numerous. Thus, the Crimson Blood Sect could barely hold its own for the time being.
Lu Ye cast the Fire Dragon Art again and again. At present, he was driving this spell without regard for the cost, because only by doing so could he kill the bugs as quickly as possible. The faster they killed the enemy, the better the situation would become.
With him standing at the front, the situation here quickly stabilized. Yet no one rashly pushed forward, because no one knew how much danger lurked in that darkness.
But with a Tier Seven like him driving his Spiritual Power so fiercely, while the Fire Dragon Art burst forth with blazing light, another problem arose.
Less than thirty breaths after the battle began, Lu Ye sensed powerful auras rapidly approaching through the darkness ahead. They were Tier Eight bugs.
And there was more than one. Judging from the commotion, there were at least three.
The number was not great. With Lu Ye's current cultivation and strength, he had every chance of instantly killing one, while he and the several dozen cultivators here could work together to kill the other two.
