Chapter 214: Insect Tide

Ten miles away from the station, there is a flat valley in the wilderness. In the center of the valley, there is a huge pit. The entrance of the pit is ten feet in radius and goes straight down. I don’t know how deep it is. If someone stands at the entrance of the pit, he can still hear the whistling wind.

Lingxi battlefield is a very wonderful place. There are many unknown adventures and opportunities here, as well as many dangers that ordinary people can hardly imagine.

At this moment, Lu Ye is riding on Amber, standing on a commanding height beside the valley, looking down. As far as his eyes can see, with the pit as the center, the valley is full of various insects, including spiders, mantises, and locusts, which are exactly the same as those he saw in the mirage, but they are much smaller in size.

These strange insects are covered with a layer of black on their bodies, giving people a very thick feeling. There is also an extremely uncomfortable breath on their bodies. The breath is not just a demonic breath, but seems to be a breath that wants to destroy everything.

At this moment, dense chewing sounds came from the valley. The valley, which was originally lush and green with flowers and birds, has withered. Wherever the insects pass, no grass grows, and even the ground is scraped off. It is conservatively estimated that there are no less than tens of thousands of insects gathered here, and there are still insects crawling out of the pits. As time goes by, the number will only increase.

"It's really a tide of insects!"

Beside Lu Ye, Chen Yu also rode a monster. This is his beast pet, which looks like a leopard. However, standing with Amber, this monster has lost its former majesty. Instead, it droops its eyebrows and eyes, and is very honest.

The lightning column that came from the sky last night was clearly seen even in the Bixue Sect's garrison ten miles away. Chen Yu hurriedly reported the situation, guessing that it might be a tide of insects.

At that time, Lu Ye had just asked Li Baxian about the situation of the tide of insects.

The insect tide is a major natural disaster in the Lingxi battlefield. It will appear once every period of time. The interval is not fixed, perhaps a few months, perhaps one or two years or even longer.

The lightning pillars falling from the sky are the signs of the insect tide.

Along with the lightning pillars, there are pits in the valley. The Jiuzhou cultivation world calls them wormholes, and the insects crawling out of the wormholes are the Zerg.

The Zerg and the demon race are not the same concept. Although there are insect monsters among the demon race, they do not have the breath of destroying everything like the Zerg.

Overall, the demon race is just a normal race in the Jiuzhou cultivation world. Many demons have transformed into human forms and worshipped in the human clan sects, and they are treated as brothers and sisters of the human monks.

It is completely different from these Zergs who have no mind and only know how to destroy.

The reason why the insect tide is called a natural disaster is that every time the insect tide appears, the entire Lingxi battlefield will be affected, and all the sects with garrisons in the Lingxi battlefield will have wormholes.

If it is not handled in time, the Zerg will develop and it is not difficult to flatten a sect garrison.

Every time the insect swarm appears, many sects suffer misfortune. This time, no one knows which sects will become victims.

The insect swarm is dangerous mainly because they will eat away all the vitality in their path, and the biggest trouble with the insect swarm is that they grow and reproduce very quickly.

A insect swarm can achieve the growth progress of a cultivator in a few months in just a few days, so once the insect swarm appears, it must be dealt with immediately, otherwise there will be disasters of extermination.

However, the corresponding to the danger is opportunity.

When the cultivators kill these insect swarms, they can also gain merit! And the corpses of these insect swarms can be sold to the Tianji Treasury, but the price is not high, but if they can accumulate a little, it is also very considerable.

So for many cultivators, the insect swarm brings crisis, but it is also a carnival.

There had been insect swarms outside the Bixue Sect’s base before, but because there was no one in the base, no one went to deal with it. As a result, the insect swarm here once developed to the point where the outer sects were helpless, and even harmed the bases of several large sects nearby. In the end, it was the strong men in the core circle who came to deal with it.

After each insect swarm, the outer area of ​​the Bixue Sect’s base was bare, which was so desolate. Fortunately, the spiritual energy of the world in the Lingxi battlefield was rich, and it would not take long for it to recover.

"You stay here, and if there is any abnormality, send me a message at any time." Lu Ye ordered.

"Yes!" Chen Yu responded.

Amber turned around and quickly flew towards the base.

Halfway, Lu Ye sent a message to Hua Ci.

After communicating with the fourth brother last night and now investigating it with his own eyes, he has some understanding of the insect swarm. If it was two months ago, such an insect swarm would really be impossible to deal with, and there was no one in the Bixue Sect.

But now it is different.

It is not a good idea for disciples to practice in isolation all the time. This insect tide is an opportunity for the Blue Blood Sect to train its disciples.

According to the fourth senior brother, in the Lingxi battlefield, any sect with a base must face the insect tide in its base, but the degree of response is different. There may be a coordination of the secrets of heaven. The insect tide that the outer sects need to deal with is not fierce at the beginning. As long as it is handled in time, it can be dealt with.

Unlike the core circle, the cultivators and the insects have been killed to pieces.

Rushing back to the base, outside the Heavenly Secret Hall, Hua Ci has gathered everyone here after receiving Lu Ye's message and is waiting solemnly.

At present, in this sect, in addition to Hua Ci's formal disciples, there are only one hundred registered disciples who were previously included, but there are more than six hundred casual cultivators attached to the Blue Blood Sect, more than one hundred more than at the beginning.

This is the benefit of having casual cultivators to rely on. If something happens here, Lu Ye will have a large number of people available. Otherwise, just relying on a hundred registered disciples may not be able to deal with this insect wave.

Lu Ye got off the tiger's back and looked over. More than 700 people gathered here, but there was no chatter and the atmosphere was solemn.

Standing in front of everyone, Lu Ye said in a deep voice: "You must have heard that the insect tide is coming! This is what every sect in the entire battlefield has to face. No one can escape. In the past, our sect's population was withering, even if We were unable to deal with the insect wave, but now we have the capital to fight against it.”

"Everyone has been practicing hard during this period. I have seen that many people's cultivation has improved. This is good. As a monk, cultivation is the foundation of oneself. But cultivation alone is not enough. You also need to have experience in life-and-death combat with the enemy. This insect tide is an opportunity. I just went to the Insect Valley with your senior brother Chen Yu to have a look. There are already a lot of insects there, but don't worry, they are just too numerous. It’s just that they are not very strong, even a monk at the second level can fight ten of them one by one!”

"This is an opportunity. Not only can you hone your enemy-killing skills, but you can also gain merit by killing those bugs. I don't need to explain the role of merit. The bugs in the Bug Valley are full of merit. Do you want it?"

"Think!" Everyone shouted in unison, their voices shaking the sky.

"If you want it, then go get it yourself! Our Blue Blood Sect is different from other sects. Other sects have protective formations. Even if it is difficult to resist the insect tide, we can retreat to the station and rely on the formation to temporarily stay safe. But what about us? ? We don’t have a large formation, we have nothing, so if we can’t withstand this insect wave, the station will be bulldozed by the Zerg. The spiritual fields you have worked hard to cultivate and the spiritual plants you have carefully planted will become the food of the Zerg, so We have no way out. If we want to win this insect wave, we have to take the initiative!"

"There is no need to stay at the station. All registered disciples and attached casual cultivators listen to the order. You will be given half an hour to form a team of five to ten people. Each team leader will be elected. The team leader will be responsible for counting the merits of the team members. After the insect wave, they will be considered. In terms of the number of achievements obtained, the top ten, regardless of whether you are a registered disciple or a casual cultivator, will receive varying amounts of spiritual stones as rewards. The top three will each be awarded a Nine Forbidden Spiritual Weapon!"

Hundreds of people were in an uproar, and the reward was just spiritual stones. Although the number was unknown, this was the first sect action since the Blue Blood Sect accepted disciples, so the reward would definitely not be bad.

The top three have a Nine Forbidden Spirit Weapon, which is a great thing. The Nine Forbidden Spirit Weapon is a spiritual weapon with nine prohibitions. It is the best among low-grade spiritual weapons. Any one of them in the Tianji Treasure House has more than 100 meritorious deeds.

"If any team performs well, there will be special rewards. Each member of the team can make a request of me. As long as it is within their ability, I will not shirk it."

In the crowd, a small white hand suddenly raised high, and then a voice sounded: "Fifth Senior Brother, I have a problem!"

Lu Ye turned around and saw that the girl named He Xiyin raised her hand.

"speak!"

"I have a friend who wants to ask, can that special reward be used on Sixth Senior Sister?"

"You're the only friend who has a lot of troubles!" Lu Ye glared at her. This girl didn't know what was wrong with her. She admired Hua Ci very much, but she was one of the only powerful people in the entire Blue Blood Sect who could do anything. Because she is a sixth-level monk.

Now, Lu Ye and Chen Yu of the Blue Blood Sect are in the seventh level. Apart from Hua Ci and He Xiyin, there are only three other people in the sixth level.

Lu Ye turned his head and glanced at Hua Ci, who nodded gently.

"Okay!" Lu Yechen shouted, and then added, "Only for you."

He Xiyin's expression immediately became excited, her two little hands clenched into fists, and she was instantly full of energy.

"Everyone, take action. I'll give you half an hour. In half an hour, we'll go out to the Insect Valley!"

As Lu Ye finished speaking, the square suddenly became lively. Familiar monks gathered together, formed a team, and elected a captain.

Lu Ye took out blank jade slips one by one and used his spiritual power to carve information into them. He got a lot of useful information from his fourth senior brother, such as the characteristics and vital points of different types of Zerg, and he himself was in Mirage. Having killed so many Zerg in the environment, he naturally has some experience of his own.

These things are extremely valuable knowledge for the monks who have experienced the insect tide for the first time. They might be able to use them some time. He wants to popularize this information before the war begins.
