Lin Yu moved effortlessly among the demonic beasts.
He didn't use any special source techniques; he was able to break through the armor of those hound-like monsters simply by relying on pure elemental power.
After losing the protection of their scales, those hound-like demonic beasts were nothing more than empty shells. Their flesh and blood lost all ability to resist Lin Yu's lightning power, and in no time, they would turn into a pool of blood.
Those dark green worms took advantage of this opportunity to crawl out from the monster's body.
After the dark green worms crawled out, they kept sucking at the blood.
Lin Yu initially deduced that these small insects had no offensive capabilities, but as time passed, the number of the hound-like monsters decreased, while the number of the dark green insects increased. Moreover, as the amount of blood increased, the insects' strength gradually increased as well.
The insect's carapace glowed with a soft green light, seemingly capable of retaliating against attacks to some extent.
Lin Yu believed that these small insects played a significant role in making the scales of those demonic beasts so tough.
It was only because of their special physical abilities that these little insects were able to survive in the face of Lin Yu's absolute power.
"Boom..."
At this moment, Lin Yu was like the Grim Reaper, and in a few leaps and bounds, he had already slaughtered all the demonic beasts without leaving a trace.
In the blink of an eye, the disciple's cracked skin had become a graveyard for the big dogs, with countless corpses piled up on the ground, creating a spectacular sight.
It's worth mentioning that the blood from these monsters didn't spread out; instead, it was absorbed by the dark green worms at an extremely fast rate.
As for those demonic beasts that had already died, having lost the protection of their scales, they were nothing more than fragile shells, utterly useless.
After the battle, He Buxian and his team gained a lot of combat experience.
He knew that dealing with these demonic beasts was an easy task for the Palace Master. The reason the Palace Master hadn't acted immediately was simply to give him a chance to gain experience.
Lin Yu only intervened to resolve the matter after he saw that the training was nearly complete.
Standing in the void with He Buxian by his side, Lin Yu once again gathered the power of lightning.
This time, the power of lightning was different from before. A terrifying amount of lightning gradually gathered at Lin Yu's fingertips, buzzing loudly.
At the very center of the light, Fire of Thunder burned wildly.
"Boom!"
With a single strike, the heavenly lightning fire drawn by the power of thunder instantly ignited the corpses of these demonic beasts, and the raging flames burned on the parched Great Emperor.
Beneath the endless blue-purple light, the scorching flames seemed poised to burn everything to ashes.
He Buxian could sense that if it weren't for the Palace Master protecting him, he would have been burned by the flames even with his current strength.
However, He Buxian noticed that Lin Yu's expression didn't seem relaxed, and he was immediately puzzled.
Everything is progressing normally, so why does the Palace Master look so worried?
In fact, when Lin Yu released the spell, he wasn't sure if he had completely eliminated all the dark green insects.
Those dark green insects looked extraordinary; even under immense impact, they were able to grow stronger thanks to the power of the demon beast's blood.
Generally speaking, fire is the best way to deal with this kind of monster.
However, Lin Yu was unsure whether the flames would be effective against the dark green insects. After all, if they could be wiped out by the flames, then the insects' fighting power would be far too weak.
The flames released by Lin Yu were Fire of Thunder, extraordinary in nature. While they might be slightly less pure than the true fire of the ancient phoenix clan, their power was by no means weak.
This fire, once set off, directly ignited the oil from the demonic beasts, causing the flames to intensify.
Lin Yu in the void, quietly watching the scene below, his heart undisturbed.
"Buzz... buzz... buzz..."
Just then, another noise was heard on the horizon.
The already gloomy sky darkened even further, as a large patch of dark clouds drifted in at an extremely fast speed.
The dark clouds were moving at an abnormal speed. Upon closer inspection, it became clear that they were not real dark clouds at all, but rather swarms of insects with wings.
Judging from the shape of the insect, it is just like a fly on Earth, except that its wings are much larger.
They drifted in from the distant horizon and then plunged into the sea of fire without hesitation.
Under the Fire of Thunder, those "fly-like" creatures were burned to ashes.
The whole scene was incredibly spectacular; from a distance, it looked as if a raging fire had absorbed the dark clouds.
He Buxian, standing behind Lin Yu, was already so shocked that his mouth was agape, and he didn't know what to say.
Everything before him was far beyond his comprehension.
While nothing is surprising in a fantasy world, most things still follow certain patterns.
Just like every living being has a life instinct, no matter how strange its form or appearance, it will still show the will to survive.
But why are these flying insects acting like they've gone mad, suicidally rushing into the sea of fire?
"Buzz... buzz... buzz..."
The sky trembled violently. Those demonic beasts were clearly not as fragile as flies. Their bodies were several times larger than ordinary flies, and they were obviously a specialty of the Netherworld Immortal Realm.
They formed a black river with their bodies, rushing headlong into the raging fire.
"Lord of the Palace... these demonic beasts, could they be trying to extinguish the flames with their own physical strength?" He Buxian stammered, raising a possibility.
In fact, judging from the behavior of these creatures, that seems to be their intention.
Lin Yu did not answer He Buxian's question; he was also observing the current situation.
Ordinary flames would likely have been extinguished by the onslaught of these demonic beasts, but the fire Lin Yu Shi unleashed was Fire of Thunder, its power fused with the Heavenly Dao, making it far more difficult to extinguish.
These flying insects rushing in recklessly are like mayflies trying to shake a tree; the only result they get is to turn their own bodies to ashes.
It's simply impossible to extinguish the flames this way.
"But why are these flying insects doing this?" Lin Yu stared at the endless stream of flying insects, lost in deep confusion.
If these flying insects were chasing flames, that would be one thing, but flying thousands of miles just to get themselves killed?
