Chapter 473 Something Is Wrong
"The entrance is a dry well. After we go in, we can collapse it and block the exit." Someone suggested.
"It's too dangerous. If we don't do it well, we will all be buried in it." Some people were worried.
"How about leading them away?"
"That's a way, but since these monsters are guarding the insect nest, it's probably difficult to lead them away. Even if we can lead some away, it's impossible to lead all away."
"We have to try it after all."
"Who will come?"
A group of people looked at each other, and no one spoke. It's not that the task of leading the monsters away is so dangerous. Although there are many monsters here, there are no more than those in Liangjie City. Everyone came out of Liangjie City and would not be afraid of the monsters chasing after them. .
But if you are responsible for leading the monsters away, you won't be able to participate in the destruction of the insect nest.
For the Jiuzhou cultivators, this is a great opportunity to gain military merits. If you can really destroy the insect nest here and then solve the crisis of the entire Ten Thousand Beasts Domain, you will definitely get a lot of merits.
After a moment, a group of people looked at Lu Ye, and the meaning was already very clear.
Lu Ye naturally knew what they were thinking, and looked at the elder: "Elder, you are responsible for trying to lead the monster away!"
The elder said: "Yes, but I want to follow the young master."
There are still six people left in the Ten Thousand Beast Sect. Excluding the elder, there are five people left. Although the more people the better, there is not much difference between five and six people in leading the monster away.
Moreover, the elder is a ninth-level Yunhe realm. If he can follow Lu Ye, he can also provide him with a certain degree of protection.
Lu Ye immediately expressed his attitude: "No problem."
The old woman said: "Young master, be careful."
Having said this, she led several Ten Thousand Beast Sect monks to fly downwards. Soon, there was a violent fluctuation of spiritual power and a roaring sound from below. Everyone looked up and saw several Ten Thousand Beast Sect monks turning into streams of light, passing over the ruins of the Xuanwu Sect, and constantly attacking.
Soon, a large group of densely packed monsters followed these people. These people were not in a hurry to escape, but circled above Xuanwu Sect for a few times before leading the herd to flee far away.
The monsters gathered on the side of Xuanwu Sect were reduced by half in an instant.
The situation was not too optimistic, but it was within expectations.
It was not realistic to divide the troops at this time. There were still many monsters in the insect nest. If more troops were divided to lead away the monsters on the ground, there would only be a few people who entered the insect nest, and it would be difficult to achieve anything.
"Fellow Daoist Ye, you lead the way!" Zhou Hai said.
Lu Ye said nothing, turned into a stream of light and flew down, and everyone followed closely.
The fluctuation of spiritual power quickly attracted the attention of monsters, and a large number of flying monsters took the initiative to meet them. The people following Lu Ye took action together, and the stream of light of the magic and magic instruments wrapped the breath of death, blasted into the herd, and forcibly blasted a passage in the herd.
Flying straight down, a dry well came into view. Lu Ye was the first to fall into it, followed by the great elder who had been protecting him, then Shen Xiaomao and Lan Ziyi, and then Xia Qianqian and the helpers she had gathered, with the two physical cultivators at the back.
During the fall, the two physical cultivators at the back kept attacking, bombarding the surrounding well walls. When everyone fell, a large piece of falling rocks followed.
The dry well was not too deep, only less than ten feet. The moment Lu Ye fell to the bottom of the well, Amber jumped off his shoulder and flew to the side. Lu Ye hurriedly followed.
Yiyi had previously explored the passage leading to the underground. With her secret guidance, Amber would not lose her way.
The rumbling sound behind him continued, the well wall was completely collapsed, and the entrance for everyone to come in was blocked, so there was no need to worry about being chased by soldiers.
However, the crowd's actions seemed to have alarmed the monsters underground. The roars of monsters continued to be heard from all directions, echoing with the roars of the beasts on the ground.
There was not only one underground passage, but it was winding and branching from time to time. If there was no secret guidance from Yiyi, even if everyone entered this place, it would take a lot of effort to find the insect nest.
From time to time, there were monsters rushing out from the fork, and their scarlet eyes were particularly conspicuous in the darkness.
Lu Ye had the Great Elder guarding him. With his cultivation of the Ninth Layer of Yunhe, few monsters could get within three feet of Lu Ye. Anyone who dared to show up was killed by the Great Elder with a punch.
To be honest, with such a loyal Yunhe Ninth Layer guarding around, he really felt safe.
Going deep all the way was extremely smooth.
There was not only the Great Elder in the ninth level of Yunhe in the team, but also Xia Qianqian, Pang Dahai and Zhou Hai. Especially Zhou Hai, a sword cultivator, was very good at controlling the sword. He often killed monsters with just a flash of sword light. With Lu Ye's eyesight and cultivation, he could not see clearly how he made the move.
After all, the difference in cultivation was too big, especially the sword cultivators were famous for their killing skills.
Going a hundred feet underground, the front suddenly opened up, and a huge chamber came into everyone's eyes.
The insect nest was here!
It was similar to the insect nest that Lu Ye had seen in the Lingxi battlefield. This place should be an underground cave, which was completely wrapped by a layer of flesh wall. There were many bulging flesh sacs on the flesh wall. The flesh sacs squirmed from time to time, as if there was something living hidden in it, which could break out of the sac at any time.
Everyone stepped on this flesh wall, as if they were in the stomach of a living thing, and the air was full of pungent smells.
In the darkness, pairs of scarlet eyes opened, densely packed like fireflies.
In this insect nest, there are a large number of monsters gathered to guard it.
After a slight stalemate, the roar of beasts suddenly sounded, and along with the roar of beasts, the monsters guarding here launched an attack on Lu Ye and other uninvited guests.
The overwhelming sword light illuminated the entire insect nest, as well as the violent magic and the light of the imperial weapon.
Although it was the first time to cooperate, the tacit understanding of the Yunhe Realm cultivators was not comparable to that of the Lingxi Realm. The two physical cultivators immediately blocked in front of everyone, their blood boiling, and each of them offered a large spiritual weapon shield to withstand the monster's crazy attack.
The soldier cultivators were behind, and the magic cultivators were in the back. In an instant, the battle continued.
The monsters that rushed over were killed one by one, and the smell of blood began to spread. The crazy attacks of the monsters made the spiritual weapon shields of the two physical cultivators flash wildly, and the defense line was once broken.
After enduring the most difficult early stage, as the number of monsters decreased, the pressure faced by everyone gradually decreased until the formation was completely stabilized.
Although some people in the team were injured from time to time, generally speaking, no one was worried about their lives.
Hope was right in front of them, and everyone worked harder to kill the enemy.
Half an hour later, all the monsters in the entire insect nest were killed, and the corpses of monsters were piled up in all directions where everyone was.
"Something is wrong!" Xia Qianqian suddenly spoke.
"I feel something is wrong too!" Pang Dahai panted, and threw a Yuanling Pill into his mouth while speaking.
Although Zhou Hai said nothing, the sword light that was suspended beside him and never annihilated showed that he was always on guard.
Even the great elder had been guarding Lu Ye, not leaving his side, with a tense face.
Several Yunhe Nine-layer Realm people noticed the abnormality.
Everything went too smoothly.
From the time everyone went deep underground and killed into the insect nest until all the monsters here were killed, there were some twists and turns during the period, but generally speaking, it was too smooth.
The excessive smoothness made several people feel uneasy, as if there was something they had not noticed.
"The retreat is blocked!" Lu Ye said.
Everyone turned their heads and found that the entrance they came in was gone, completely covered by the omnipresent flesh wall.
No one noticed when the retreat was blocked. Just now, everyone was fighting hard and didn't notice the entrance behind them.
At this moment, the insect nest can be said to be completely closed.
A sword flashed beside Zhou Hai, and a flying sword slashed towards the entrance. However, this sharp sword light only broke the surface of the flesh wall and cut a gap, but failed to completely cut it open. When the sword light disappeared, the flesh wall quickly squirmed and recovered in the blink of an eye.
Everyone looked solemn when they saw this. This insect nest was different from all the insect nests they had seen before.
The insects encountered by the Ten Thousand Beasts Domain this time were also something they had never seen before.
If the flesh wall of this insect nest has such a strong recovery and protection power, how can it be destroyed?
"I have another question." Pang Dahai walked to a position and stepped on a piece of meat sac under his feet. "If the Zerg in the insect tide of this world are small like cicadas, what is in this meat sac?"
In other insect nests, the Zerg hatched in the meat sacs are all large Zerg. Obviously, the Zerg hatched in the insect nest of this world does not need such a large meat sac.
And since just now, these meat sacs have been wriggling, as if something alive is about to break out of the sac.
Zhou Hai raised his sword and walked towards the center of the insect nest: "No matter what it is, destroy the core of this insect nest first!"
Each insect nest has its own core. The core is located in a huge meat sac, where there is a vitality core condensed by the insect nest absorbing various energies. If this core is destroyed, the insect nest will lose the ability to hatch Zerg.
This insect nest naturally has a core, but just now everyone was blocked by the monster and could not get close.
Zhou Hai walked to the meat sac standing in the center, and touched his long sword, and the sword body immediately lit up with a dazzling light.
As his spiritual power surged, the long sword in his hand turned into a shocking sword light, and he slashed at the core.
This sword that he used all his strength to slash did not go smoothly, because at the moment when the long sword was about to fall, a beast claw suddenly stretched out from the core meat sac and grabbed Zhou Hai's sword. The beast claw was harder than fine iron, and the long sword slashed on it with a ding sound and sparks, which showed how strong it was.
Zhou Hai's eyelids narrowed.
The people who were watching this scene were also shocked by this change. No one expected that there was a living thing in this core meat sac.
