MTL - Natural Fairy Species-Chapter 220 Big Five

  Chapter 220 Five Strange Insects

   There are five strange insects in the world of cultivating immortals, each with its own magic.

  Like a worm devouring gold with all kinds of poison, whose body is more than refined iron, hard to be wounded by swords, everything in the world cannot be devoured.

  Born as a second-order demon worm, it devours various poisons during the growth process, making the rodent saliva highly poisonous.

  Mature gold devouring worms can grow to the peak of the third order, and they often appear in groups, even Yuanying Zhenjun has to stay away.

  There is also a hundred-eyed centipede, whose mature body can grow to a hundred feet, and has a hundred pairs of compound eyes on its body.

  Each pair of compound eyes can emit a divine light. In the world of cultivating immortals, there has been a hundred-eyed centipede who has mastered more than 20 different divine lights.

  The fourth-rank top-grade Centipede Centipede flew non-stop, and when it came to a country, it would destroy all the monks.

  During hundreds of years, countless sects were destroyed because of this.

  In the end, the five real emperors of the late Yuanying stage jointly formed a formation and killed him only after paying a heavy price.

  Compared to Hundred Poison Devouring Gold Bug and Hundred Eyes Centipede, Spring Autumn Cicada does not have such strong individual strength.

  According to the records, the strongest Spring Autumn Cicada is only the third-rank low-rank.

  From the second-level low-level at birth, one can advance to the first level after a hundred years of sleep.

  The active time is only a few years, and then it will fall into a deep sleep again.

   Repeatedly, until it becomes a third-order monster.

  But Spring Autumn Cicada is called the most mysterious among the five strange insects, because it has the ability to slightly affect time.

  The monster insects of the second rank and at most the third rank can be involved in the most mysterious and unpredictable time, how can they not be included in the five strange insects.

   Once, Nascent Soul True Monarch spent a lot of effort to capture a Spring Autumn Cicada, and planned to take it back to raise it, to see if it had the potential to advance to the third level or above.

  By the way, I want to find a way to touch the Dao of Time from Spring Autumn Cicada's innate ability.

  But at the moment when the contract was made, Spring Autumn Cicada ignored the restriction and used the power of time on itself.

  There is only a fossil-like body left, and the insect life is over in an instant.

  Since then, Spring Autumn Cicada, who can't be contracted as a spirit insect and has mastered a little power of time, has become more and more famous.

   "Got it! Got it!"

  Spring Autumn Cicada flew into the sky, flapped its wings, turned its head and rushed over.

   Obviously flying is not fast, but it passed between the two sword lights, causing the flying swords to slash in the air.

  Strong wind blows in front of her face, and Qiqiao Xiaguang is excited to block in front of her.

   Click! Click!

   Two light curtains were shattered in succession to block Spring Autumn Cicada.

  The Spring Autumn Cicada, the size of Cinnamon chinensis, fluttered its wings, and was already tens of feet away.

   "This is the power of time of Spring Autumn Cicada!"

  Bai Zichen was so uncomfortable that he wanted to vomit blood. He obviously thought well, and the flight trajectory of the insect shadow was also in line with his prediction.

  The final result is always a hair's breadth away, either the sword is released a moment earlier, or it is a point late, failing to meet one's expectations.

  Compared to other monster insects, it is obviously weaker in terms of individual strength, and it can still be included in the top five strange insects in the world of cultivating immortals.

   Even known as the number one mystery, as expected, there is no void under the reputation.

   "Second-level high-grade monster insects, that is Spring Autumn Cicada that has slept twice... Even if I deal with a second-level peak monster, I will not feel this powerless."

  Bai Zichen's whole body of swordsmanship was useless, if not for the fact that Spring Autumn Cicada's attack power was not too strong, Qiqiao Xuanzhu would have been broken long ago.

  Put on the neon clothes and feathers, and the red training flashes, also affected when approaching Spring Autumn Cicada.

   Chi Lian almost solidified, directly returning the neon clothes and feather clothes to an ordinary spiritual weapon.

   "This is not a method that can be mastered by the second level at all. It is like the Qingdi Longevity Sword. It is swung in the hands of Daoist Jiedan, and no one at the same level can stop it..."

  Bai Zichen felt for the first time why high-ranking monks attach the most importance to the true meaning of the Dao.

   No matter how high your cultivation base is, no matter how powerful your means are, can you still fight against the Dao between heaven and earth?

  Just touching a little bit of the fur of Spring Autumn Cicada can make him feel at a loss and extremely embarrassed.

   You can only spread out the sword light first, and use Xingluo swordsmanship, and the ten-foot range around your body will be filled with vertical and horizontal sword lights.

  Spring and Autumn Cicada flapped its wings and made a sharp chirp. The insect bodies on both sides were obviously dislocated due to the different passage of time.

  The dense sword glow erupted, and all the stardust fell from the sky, and a gorgeous meteor shower fell.

  Every sword light falling on Spring Autumn Cicada will be deflected and decomposed by a strange force.

  Hundreds of thousands of sword lights fell, even the thousand-year-old tortoise in Feiyue Lake, which is famous for its defense, could not catch it unscathed.

  But Spring Autumn Cicada just flapped its wings lightly, and took full responsibility.

  Its half body full of vitality is becoming more emerald green, like a piece of the purest and brightest emerald.

  The other half of the worm's body exudes an irresistible decaying smell, like the gloomy wood that has been soaked in rotten water for hundreds of years.

   At an extremely slow speed, he was invincible as he moved forward among the surging sword lights.

   "One last attempt, if you still can't break Spring Autumn Cicada's power of time, you can only use the Taiyin Star Escape Talisman to evacuate first... Please take action from the two uncles, and then come to rescue Su Li!"

   Those miscellaneous books about the five strange insects in the world of cultivating immortals did not record how to deal with Spring Autumn Cicada.

  Basically relying on the superiority of realm, Master Jiedan won the second-rank Spring and Autumn Cicada, and Zhenjun Yuanying captured the third-rank Spring and Autumn Cicada.

  The lower the realm, the more terrifying this power related to the true meaning of the Dao will be.

  Bai Zichen has a third-order Lunar Star Escape Talisman in his hand, and he still wants to give it a try until the last moment.

  Spring Autumn Cicada, an ancient strange insect born with the power of time, has much higher intelligence than ordinary monster insects.

   I'm afraid that if I leave, Su Li, who was half dead in the cicada chrysalis, won't be able to survive the next moment, and won't be able to wait for the next wave of rescuers.

   Qingdi Longevity Sword!

  Yun swordsmanship is the head, Yimu Qingshenshu is the body, and swordsmanship is the end. The three secret arts are performed in sequence and integrated into one, trying to reproduce the supreme supernatural power of the Ichthyosaurus sect.

  The green glow suddenly appeared, and it was also a sense of dislocation between extremely fast and extremely slow, very similar to the feeling Spring Autumn Cicada gave him.

   "I don't want to succeed in casting the Qing Emperor Longevity Sword, what I want is to pull the power of time and collide with your natural power... I just want this fleeting opportunity!"

  Bai Zichen had calculated it long ago, without tens or hundreds of years of intensive research, it would be impossible to master this heaven-defying supernatural power during the foundation-building period.

  Of course, it is impossible for him to put his hopes of breaking the game on things where the probability of a sudden breakthrough is close to zero.

   Unless the realm is crushed, there is only another true meaning of the Dao that can resist the true meaning of the Dao.

"My Qingdi Longevity Sword doesn't take shape at all, it can only draw a trace of the power of time, but even if you are blessed with a second-order demon worm, how much can you display... Besides, I don't expect it to hurt you, as long as two strands Just collide with the power of time and light from different sources!"

  When the Qingdi Longevity Sword flowed to the last step, the Qingmang couldn't hold on any longer, it exploded in all directions, and ripples of the power of time and light spread.

   This is the moment!

  Bai Zichen's spiritual consciousness was highly concentrated, his eyes flickered, and the sword lights all over the sky instantly condensed into a mighty sword light.

  Chunqiu Cicada's wings paused, and the two forces of time collided, making it return to normal for an instant.

  The light of the sword faded and changed, and the thunder exploded.

  The Spring Autumn Cicada screamed, and flew towards the sky for a while, and a blood line appeared from the middle of the insect's body.

   Just along the completely different half-green and half-gray body, it broke in two and fell quickly.

  As a second-tier top-rank monster, after losing the power of time to protect the body, Spring Autumn Cicada's body is actually quite fragile, not as good as many second-tier low-rank monsters.

   Hoo!

  Bai Zichen let out a long breath, making sure that Spring Autumn Cicada was dead, only then did he realize that his back was already drenched.

   This can be regarded as the most emaciated battle after he leapfrogged and beheaded Meng Shigui.

  Although it looked plain and there was no earth-shattering collision, it was far more dangerous than dealing with a perfect foundation-building monk.

  If it weren't for his superb swordsmanship, he would already be able to achieve a mind like a mirror, and his ability to grasp opportunities is far beyond ordinary people.

  Switch to other sword cultivators or monks in the late stage of foundation establishment here, even if there is a method similar to the Qingdi Longevity Sword to induce the Spring Autumn Cicada's bodyguard to stagnate the power of time, there is a high probability that they will not be able to capture this opportunity.

   At most a flick of a finger, its side fell into a frozen state of disordered speed again.

   "When to stop and when to move, there are rules... The power of time of Spring Autumn Cicada is like this, and the timing of my sword is also like this."

  Bai Zichen held the sword in a daze. After beheading Spring Autumn Cicada and feeling the power of time at close range, some thoughts seemed to emerge in his mind.

   It's like the legendary epiphany, but it's not at that level, it's just a hazy and immature feeling.

   But what is certain is that this battle has greatly helped him.

  Even if it cannot be manifested in a short time, it will always be gradually manifested in the future cultivation process.

  This is the case with the sense of impending battle. I don’t even know its function, but one day it will cross the long river of time and emerge where it should appear.

   With a scroll of Jianguang, he grabbed two pieces of Spring Autumn Cicada's insect body.

  The green part is soft and elastic, and has a jelly-like touch.

  The gray half is like rotten wood, and it is suspected that it will shatter if squeezed hard.

  Bai Zichen found a long jade box and sealed it up.

  One of the five strange insects in the world of cultivating immortals. Of course, it cannot be regarded as an ordinary second-order spirit insect. Maybe it has some great uses that I don't know about.

   Even if it is not useful, it will be fine to make a specimen for display in the future.

   Even Yuanying Zhenjun can't make specimens from the five strange insects.

  Walking to the cicada chrysalis, he sensed it with his spiritual sense, and with a swipe of Tianxin sword, it split open with a sound of tearing, and viscous liquid poured out.

  Su Li fell down along the broken cicada chrysalis, Bai Zichen held his breath and touched his mouth and nose with his hands, still breathing weakly.

   "It's good if you don't die, there is always a way to save it..."

  Bai Zichen grabbed Su Li, threw the gun back on his shoulder, and turned into a sword light and went straight to the mountain gate.

  Saving people is like putting out a fire. Who knows if there will be any special changes after leaving the cicada pupa, which will cause the situation in Su Li to take a turn for the worse.

  Of course, choose the fastest flight speed, and don’t have the time to drive slowly with colorful patterns and white clouds.

"I don't know what Spring Autumn Cicada is doing for trapping Su Li in the cicada chrysalis for so many years... But the miscellaneous book I read only wrote about the five strange insects as interesting anecdotes, and the introduction was not detailed enough. "

  Bai Zichen flew with his sword, and his mana consumption doubled.

   Fortunately, he is already in the late stage of foundation establishment, and there is enough liquid mana in his dantian Qi Sea to support him.
