Chapter 219: Earning Merits

As time passed, hundreds of monks from the Bixue Sect continued to advance from all directions, just as they had dealt with the Zerg in the Worm Valley before.

Lu Ye wandered around the edge of the battlefield, occasionally taking action to kill those seventh-layer Zerg to avoid possible casualties on his side.

Half a day later, the Zerg in the insect nest was almost wiped out. Although the flesh sacs on the flesh walls around the insect nest continued to rupture and new Zergs hatched, those insects often just hatched and had no time to observe the surrounding environment before they had bid farewell to this beautiful world.

Lu Ye was now looking at a huge flesh sac in the center of the insect nest. The flesh sac was about one person tall, and there were things like blood vessels extending in all directions on it, connecting to every corner of the flesh wall of the insect nest.

The flesh sac itself was not the focus, but the three eighth-layer Zerg guarding it.

These three Zergs were obviously different from the eight-layer Zergs that Lu Ye had killed before. Their serrated claws were sharper, their black carapaces were thicker, and their bodies were obviously larger than those ordinary eighth-layer Zergs.

They have not yet reached the level of the ninth-layer Zerg, but they are undoubtedly more powerful than the ordinary eighth-layer Zerg.

This is the information revealed by Li Baxian in the information. These special Zerg are guards.

After hatching, other Zergs will leave the nest driven by instinct, explore outside and eat all the vitality and energy they encounter.

But these guards will not. They have been guarding the nest since the day they were born, guarding the meat sac, and never leaving.

Even if Lu Ye just held up a round of the sun, even if the Bixue Sect and the Zerg were fighting fiercely, they did not pay much attention.

Because their mission of birth is to guard the meat sac that is one person tall. As long as they do not get close to the meat sac within a certain range, even if other Zergs die, they will not move.

The best way to deal with such a powerful Zerg is naturally to rush up and beat them together!

At this moment, twenty feet away from the meat sac, many selected monks formed a circle. These monks either mastered the magic or had talismans to use.

There weren't many people, only about a hundred.

At this moment, all of them were secretly urging their spiritual power.

Lu Ye held his hiltless short knife, and as his mind moved slightly, the hiltless short knife hummed and turned into a red stream of light, killing one of the Zerg guards. At the same time, Chen Yu also urged the power of his own weapon in another direction.

There were also hundreds of magic spells and talismans, all of which smashed towards the three guards.

A rumbling sound came out, and the fluctuation of spiritual power was extremely chaotic at this moment.

Accompanied by the unique hissing sound of the Zerg, green blood flew, and the three provoked guards immediately rushed out.

They really wouldn't leave the meat sac too far, but if they were attacked, they would definitely fight back, so in the previous battle, Lu Ye specifically told everyone not to hit these three guys, otherwise it would be very troublesome.

The red light shuttled back and forth, and the Zerg guard that rushed towards Lu Ye immediately had more and more piercing wounds on his body. Before he ran a few steps, he fell to the ground. The power of a large number of magic and talismans enveloped him. He wanted to get up, but the shell on his body flew away, revealing the green flesh under the shell.

The other two Zerg guards suffered the same fate. Even though their strength was much higher than that of the Blue Blood Sect monks, they could not withstand the attack of hundreds of people.

The two Zerg guards fell to the ground after running only a few feet away and could not get up again.

Only one rushed to the front of the crowd, but was also stopped by several physical cultivators led by He Xiyin, and then hacked at.

In the melee, no one knew who killed this Zerg guard.

With the correct response method, the process of killing these three Zerg guards became very simple. This was also the experience summed up by the Jiuzhou monks with their lives before.

Cheers came from all directions, and everyone was beaming with joy.

Although the insect tide caused the Bixue Sect to lose more than a dozen people, it was still gratifying to have such a result in the first response to the insect tide.

When they heard that the insect tide was coming, many cultivators with low cultivation were uneasy, because every time there was an insect tide, many people would die, but now it seems that it is just like that.

Who among the living did not gain a lot?

The insect tide has not completely ended, because the insect nest has not withered. Only when the insect nest is completely withered, the insect tide will be truly over. Before the insect nest is completely withered, there will be more insects hatched.

Lu Ye stepped forward and walked to the meat sac in the center, which is the core of the entire insect nest.

The Panshan knife cut slightly and cut open the meat sac. While the pungent fishy smell hit him, there was also a frightening breath of life.

He stretched out a hand, reached into the meat sac, and fumbled inside.

The sound of puffing made several female cultivators with poor psychological endurance pale on the spot, and they covered their mouths and ran to the side.

Soon, Lu Ye withdrew his hand, and a fist-sized meat core appeared on his hand. The meat core was irregular in shape, with pits and bumps on the surface, and it was not beautiful, but it seemed to have life, and it kept beating in Lu Ye's palm.

Pure and rich vitality came from this meat core.

"It really is."

He whispered softly. Most of the vitality and energy eaten by the Zerg that ran out of the insect nest gathered here. As the source of hatching more Zerg, the specific storage location was the meat sac in front of him, so this was the core of the insect nest, and there would be special guards to protect it.

The meat core in Lu Ye's hand is a gathering of vitality and energy. The Jiuzhou cultivation world calls it a vitality core. This thing cannot be used by monks. Even though it is a combination of huge vitality and pure energy, it is only suitable for the reproduction of the Zerg.

There is more than one vitality core in the meat sac. When Lu Ye reached out to touch it just now, he touched several. The exact number can only be known after breaking the meat sac.

As long as the meat sac is broken and all the vitality cores are taken away, the insect nest here will wither in a short time without the supply of vitality and energy, and the insect tide will be completely over.

However, Lu Ye does not intend to do this. The monks of the Blue Blood Sect have too few ways to obtain merits at present. Now everything in the insect nest is under control. Seven hundred monks gather together, and every time the Zerg hatches, they are killed. This is obviously a good place to brush merits.

So after just observing the vitality core, Lu Ye stuffed it back.

The hole in the meat sac that he broke was actually restored to its original state in a very short time, which shows the powerful recovery ability of the insect nest.

The next thing is simple. The 700 monks of the Bixue Sect only need to stay here and keep killing the newly hatched Zergs until the Zerg nest consumes all the vitality cores.

He has nothing to do now. The teams are scattered in the Zerg nest, staring at the meat sacs in front of them. If a Zerg comes out, they will die...

Lu Ye walked over to Hua Ci and saw that she was in much better condition, so he was relieved.

But thinking of her weak appearance just now, he wanted to laugh.

After all, she is a woman, and she still has a fragile side.

"Lu Ye Lu Ye!" Yi Yi suddenly ran over excitedly.

"Huh?"

"There is a hole over there, I don't know where it leads to."

"What do you mean?"

"There is a hole, you will know when you come and see it." Yi Yi pulled Lu Ye and ran in that direction.

Now everyone is waiting for the Zerg to hatch and then kill the insects. Yi Yi has nothing to do so she wanders around, and she found an unexplored hole.

Soon, Lu Ye came to the cave entrance under Yiyi's guidance. He thought about it carefully and found that this cave entrance was not one of the nine passages explored by the Bixue Sect. The cave entrance was dark and no one knew where it led to.

Lu Ye looked at it for a while, and suddenly squatted down and wiped it on the ground, and found some undried mucus on the ground.

Zergs have this mucus on their bodies after they hatch.

In other words, some Zergs left here through this cave entrance, and it won't be too long, at most one day ago.

Lu Ye suddenly remembered a situation mentioned by Li Baxian... His heart moved, and he vaguely understood it.

"Do you want to go in and take a look?" Yiyi asked.

"I'll go and take a look."

"I'll go with you." Yiyi said quickly.

"That's fine."

"Take Amber with you."

"Okay."

Yiyi jumped for joy and ran to find Amber.

Lu Ye called Chen Yu and told him to take care of this place and report immediately if there was any accident.

Soon, Lu Ye rode Amber deep into the cave entrance and headed forward.

On the tiger's back, Lu Ye held up his Panshan knife. The sunshine spirit pattern on the scabbard continued to work, shining in all directions. Yiyi sat in front of him, and Amber rushed forward.

It seemed to be back to the past, one person, one spirit, and one tiger, walking together, carefree. Yiyi especially liked this feeling and hummed on the way.

Lu Ye put his chin on her head, and her hair fluttered in the wind, making her face itchy.

"Your head is so heavy!" Yiyi protested.

Lu Ye used a little more force.

Yiyi screamed in anger: "I'll tell Sister Huaci later and let her deal with you!"

"Huaci... ha!" Lu Ye smiled contemptuously. If it was before, he really couldn't do anything with a woman, but now, he still had the mechanical creation he got from Lu Yushan in his storage bag. It was furry and had eight claws. I just want to ask if you are afraid!

"Lu Ye, you've become more courageous. You're not even afraid of Sister Hua Ci anymore."

"Have you forgotten your last name? Huh?" Lu Ye raised his right hand, clenched his fist, and pressed it against Yi Yi's forehead, drilling.

"My last name is Lu..." Yi Yi held her head with both hands, "My name is Lu Yi Yi... woo woo woo woo..."

Noisy and noisy, moving forward all the way.

Until an hour later, there was suddenly some commotion and spiritual power fluctuations in front.

Lu Ye and Yi Yi calmed down at the same time, the sunlight spirit pattern dissipated, and even the running Amber suddenly became quiet and silent.

Patting Amber to make it stop, Lu Ye and Yi Yi turned over and quietly moved forward. Not long after, the constantly flashing light came into their eyes.
