"My sword broke..." Gu Fengchen's face paled. Although his sword was a low-grade divine artifact, it was among the finest of its kind. Yet the Black Demon Scorpion's sting had snapped it.
That was not the end.
After breaking Gu Fengchen's sword, the sting paused only briefly before continuing toward his chest.
"Am I going to die?" Despair filled Gu Fengchen's face at the sight. If he had not arrived so early, if he had been prepared, then no matter how formidable this Black Demon Scorpion was, he would never have ended up in such a plight.
But now...
Watching the approaching sting, Gu Fengchen knew perfectly well how wretched his fate would be once it struck him.
The terrifying poison would leave him wishing he were dead.
Yet no one could have anticipated this situation. Insect beasts at the Heaven and Earth True God level, such as Black Demon Scorpions, generally lived alone. Who would have imagined there was another one inside the lair?
Now it was clear: these were a male and female pair of Black Demon Scorpions. The one they had just Slaying was the male, while the one inside the lair was the female.
Although it was female, its strength was no less than that of the Black Demon Scorpion they had Slaying earlier. It, too, was an insect beast at the Heaven and Earth True God level.

Even before the sting struck him, Gu Fengchen had already inhaled a considerable amount of poison. His head began to swim.
And that was merely from drawing close.
The consequences of being stung were all too easy to imagine.
Gu Fengchen could only watch helplessly as the sting drew closer and closer, bringing death ever nearer.
"Ten Thousand Sword Hand!"
Just as Gu Fengchen
