Cultivation: the Rise of a Live-In Son-In-Law
Chapter 452 - 450: How Did My Lord Husband Aim So Accurately! Slaying the Void Nine-headed Insect Larva
"There’s danger!" Lu Ye immediately warned in a low voice.
Upon hearing this, Youluo, who had been descending halfway, instantly switched to a serious mode, her aura fully displayed as she maximized her focus.
Moments later, Youluo exclaimed, "It really is a Void Nine-headed Insect!"
Right there in the dense white mist, Youluo had already seen a vague silhouette wriggling inside.
A segment protruded, covered in some unknown slime, which looked somewhat nauseating.
For Youluo, who had previously fought with the Void Insect, even just this bit was enough to recognize it as a genuine Nine-headed Insect!
Fortunately, it seemed to be in a very juvenile state looking at its appearance.
Attempting to control her body to not fall into the white mist on the ground, Youluo was then shocked to discover...
She found herself unable to stop falling, as if a powerful force was suppressing her ability to fly.
"The air here is restricted?" Youluo quickly voiced out.
"That’s right, there’s an air restriction here, be careful," Lu Ye nodded and said.
"Luckily, it’s just one; if it were two, that would be trouble, comparable to an Earth Tier Grandmaster!" Youluo whispered.
"However, even if it’s only one, relying on its traits, it’s hard to deal with."
"No problem, I’ll handle it," Lu Ye said calmly, "You just focus on its movements, and try to block its path when it attempts to escape."
Upon hearing this, Youluo nodded immediately.
Although her own strength increased significantly due to the sealing power having worn away quite a bit lately, rising two minor levels...
But Youluo had sensed upon meeting Lu Ye this time that her master’s husband’s strength still eclipsed hers.
At this moment, as the Void Nine-headed Insect entered the valley along with the mist, it also sensed the presence of living creatures.
It immediately began spewing slime, heading in their direction.
The areas it passed seemed to cause the very space to distort slightly.
Lu Ye’s eyes turned cold as he drew out the Starfall Spirit Sword that reached True Artifact Level, infusing it with Source Qi, and unleashed a slash of Sword Qi.
Even though this slash used no martial techniques, due to Lu Ye’s dominant Grandmaster’s Source Qi and the True Artifact’s enhancement, it was terrifying nonetheless.
The Void Nine-headed Insect apparently could not react in time, having not expected this Human to be so strong.
Taking the attack solidly, even though the slime dissolved much of the damage, a scar appeared on its back.
"Ssssss!"
The insect immediately emitted a strange sound.
Nearby, Youluo saw something... different in Lu Ye’s casual strike!
"Master husband seems to be an Earth Tier Grandmaster now?!"
She had experienced the Earth Realm Grandmaster phase herself, having some understanding of Earth Realm.
Although Lu Ye’s aura was not very intense, it had revealed itself to be far superior to the Mortal Realm!
Even if one were the so-called first under Earth Realm, without crossing into it, they would still be far from a true Earth Realm.
Next, within the valley, the juvenile Void Nine-headed Insect, battered and unable to retaliate, further validated this point.
The insect felt troublesome to Youluo, requiring divine techniques to slay it if it didn’t flee.
However...
In Lu Ye’s hands, it was little more than a toy.
Within a short half-tea mark, several wounds appeared across the Nine-headed Insect’s body, leaking dark green blood.
"It seems it’s about to run!" At this moment, Youluo, who had been observing, realized the Nine-headed Insect was no longer fixated on them and intended to escape.
Lu Ye then ceased attacking the Nine-headed Insect endeavoring to flee.
Instead, he wielded the Starfall Spirit Sword, slicing several lines in the void.
The next moment, the space around the Void Nine-headed Insect indeed began to distort, and the Nine-headed Insect emitted intimidating hissing sounds and attempted to burrow into this void to escape.
Youluo raised her hand and unleashed a ghostly lotus that burned in the void, quickly rushing towards the Nine-headed Insect...
But in an instant, Youluo’s ghost lotus was seemingly affected by some law within the void, causing a significant deviation.
Seeing this, Youluo furrowed her brow; the void creatures indeed had a natural grasp of certain void laws.
At this moment, the void emitted a faint fluctuation again...
Several cold lights appeared where the Nine-headed Insect had been, like a sword net surfacing from water.
Completely enveloping the Nine-headed Insect, terrifying sword beams instantly tore its body apart!
Ultimately, only a third of the Nine-headed Insect’s body was transported away by the void channel, while the rest was obliterated by sword light, dispersing energy within the valley space!
Youluo: "?"
Wait, where did these sudden sword beams come from?!
Moreover, how did they happen to be exactly at the place where the Nine-headed Insect attempted to open a void channel to leave?
It must be said that this maneuver rendered the usually dull-thinking Youluo utterly perplexed.
She simply couldn’t understand why sword beams appeared at that location...
If her master husband used this trick on her, she definitely wouldn’t react in time and it’d be disastrous!
Seeing the Nine-headed Insect dead beyond doubt, Youluo quickly approached Lu Ye in amazement, saying, "Wait... how did you know it would open a void channel there?"
Her lower-grade divine technique misfired, yet he struck precisely!
Lu Ye smiled calmly, although he hadn’t recently grasped Domain Space in the Yunyao Secret Realm...
He had received substantial insights into space due to the massive Divine Source Qi baptism, no longer entirely ignorant of it.
This Void Nine-headed Insect was only juvenile after all, with very crude utilization of void abilities.
When opening a space channel, Lu Ye had keenly detected a faint spatial change.
Thus, he preemptively veiled the sword beam aura there, laying a trap for the Void Nine-headed Insect.
After the void insect’s demise, the mist within the valley persisted.
Using Spiritual Sense, Lu Ye sensed the suppression effect was still obvious.
However, the earlier faint sense of danger within the mist had vanished.
After thinking for a moment, Lu Ye roughly understood what’s going on.
Previously, when he arrived here, he was merely a Mortal Realm Grandmaster.
Comparing with the Nine-headed Insect were evenly matched, and due to the unfamiliar environment, an instinctive sense of danger arose in the heart.
Now, with the biggest threat within the white mist eliminated, the mysterious white mist space was no longer so frightening.
