Chapter 1164 Helpless Compromise (Two Chapters in One)
The gorgeous sunset shines through the gaps between the leaves and falls on the water.
Occasionally, you can see some fish swimming quickly in the water, rippling the water.
After Lin Li entered the swamp, his flying speed dropped immediately.
He didn't know where the Xuanling grass grew in the swamp, so he could only find it through careful search.
If he flew too fast, he might accidentally miss the Xuanling grass.
The fresh air made people feel refreshed. Lin Li was more than 30 meters away from the water at this moment, and his eyes swept across the water from time to time.
After flying for a while, a piece of land of thousands of square meters appeared in front of him.
This piece of land was not large, and there were many trees growing on it. The thick trees covered the sky and the sun, and there were bushes under the trees.
Lin Li was about to go to the land in front of him. At a distance of more than 150 meters from the land, a huge wave suddenly rose on the calm water surface.
"Splash."
Although the huge wave was more than ten meters high, it could not reach Lin Li.
However, a slender figure broke through the waves and flew towards Lin Li like an arrow shot from a bow.
"Locust?"
Lin Li reacted very quickly to the sudden attack. He dodged and moved a long distance to the left, easily avoiding the sneak attack.
The creature that rushed out of the water looked very much like a locust. It was very large, about 1.5 meters long, gray all over, and had some sharp barbs on its feet.
The strange locust with such an ugly face looked very powerful, but it was not a strange beast.
"Roar..."
The locust failed in its sneak attack, but did not give up. It opened its wings on its back and flapped them quickly. It turned a corner in the air and continued to fly towards its target while roaring.
Lin Li frowned. The sun was about to set, and he had no time to tease the locust in front of him.
"Zizi."
He raised a finger, and as the supernatural power was activated, silver-white lightning appeared out of thin air and surrounded Lin Li's finger.
"Roar...?"
When the locust saw the silver-white electric light on Lin Li's hand, it showed doubt in its eyes. At this time, it didn't know what it meant, and it still pounced on its prey at a very fast speed.
"Zizi."
Lin Li pointed his raised finger at the flying locust, and the lightning around his finger shot out immediately. In the blink of an eye, it hit the locust flying in front of it.
"Boom."
The terrible lightning had an amazing killing power. The moment it hit the locust, the powerful destructive power blew the target into pieces.
The broken limbs flew around like flowers scattered by a fairy, drawing parabolas in the air.
When it fell into the water and raised waves, it made a plop sound.
If such a ferocious creature that is not a strange beast appeared around human cities, ordinary people would become its food if they were not careful once they met it.
It had just been a short time since I entered the swamp, and I encountered such a strange locust. Similar situations will only happen more and more in the future.
Lin Li killed a strange locust casually, and just as he was about to move forward, the water surface under him suddenly changed.
"Splash, splash, splash..."
The loud splashing sound came one after another, and waves were raised one after another.
Lin Li looked at the same scene in front of him, with a surprised expression on his face.
"Roar..."
Strange locusts that looked similar appeared in the air and roared at Lin Li.
Obviously, the fighting just now attracted the attention of other locusts underwater, and at this time they all flew out of the water.
Lin Li didn't expect that there were so many locusts living in this small area of water under him. He glanced and found that the number was no less than 300.
Such a large swarm can easily destroy human villages.
Even a small town would be in danger when facing such a swarm.
"Roar..."
Lin Li's previous killing of the locust angered the swarm, and now the locusts roared and launched a fierce attack on him.
The wings on the back of the locust flapped quickly, and the sound it made was intertwined with the roar, instantly covering a large area.
Lin Li had no intention of retreating in the face of such a large-scale attack.
"Pop."
He raised his right hand and snapped his fingers.
Fine orange-red flames burst out from his fingertips, growing in the wind, and in an instant turned into fireballs with a diameter of more than one meter and about the same size as the locusts.
The temperature at the scene rose at a very fast speed because of the dozens of fireballs made by Lin Li.
The swarm of insects did not stop their attack, and they bypassed the fireballs made by Lin Li.
"You don't think these fireballs of mine can't move, do you?"
Lin Li said to himself, and then he put his hands together, and the scattered fireballs quickly merged to form a high wall of flames to protect him.
Some locusts didn't have time to brake, and crashed into the wall of flames, screaming in pain, and then fell down with their bodies charred.
The slower-flying locusts saw the miserable state of their companions and quickly stopped, then flew around Lin Li, trying to find a breakthrough.
"Stop flying around me, I'm almost dizzy from all of you."
"Roar..." The swarm of insects flew around Lin Li for more than a dozen times, but did not find a gap to break through. They were immediately furious and roared with their bloody mouths full of sharp teeth.
"It seems that these guys are not going to leave, so I can only destroy them all." Lin Li stared at the swarm of insects and waited for more than a minute. Seeing that the other party was still surrounding him, he began to act ruthlessly.
"Go."
As Lin Li raised his hand and waved, under his control, the fireballs that formed the high wall of flames immediately flew towards the surrounding insect swarms.
"Swish, swish, swish..."
The fireballs made a whistling sound during their flight, and the unprepared insect swarms had no time to dodge and were hit hard.
"Boom, boom, boom..."
When the fireballs hit the locusts, a violent explosion would occur.
If only one fireball exploded, it would not cause the insect swarm to suffer serious injuries.
At this time, dozens of fireballs exploded almost at the same time, causing terrible damage.
The heat wave swept around, and the shock wave of the explosion affected the water surface, raising huge waves.
When the dust settled, there were only a few locusts left in the insect swarm, and they were all injured.
The fireball explosion just now was too powerful, and these surviving locusts suffered severe internal injuries. It is still unknown whether they can all survive in the end.
"Is my fireball explosion so powerful now?"
Lin Li himself was a little surprised by the damage caused by this wave of fireballs exploding at the same time
This time, his cultivation level broke through and his strength increased greatly. He had not tried to use all his strength yet, so his understanding of his own combat power was a little vague.
"Roar..."
The few surviving locusts looked lonely. Logically, they should be scared out of their wits after encountering such a big setback and turn around and run away.
However, at this moment, these surviving locusts did not turn around and run away. They still stared at Lin Li with courage and roared loudly.
"It doesn't look like they have no IQ at all. Why don't they run away?"
Lin Li thought while raising his hand, ready to kill the remaining locusts.
Then, just as he was about to take action, many spiritual energy fluctuations suddenly appeared on the land in front of him.
Lin Li dealt with the swarm of insects. Although the swarm of insects were just ordinary creatures, he did not take it lightly. He kept developing mental perception and keeping alert to the surroundings.
At this moment, many large spiritual energy fluctuations suddenly appeared on the land in front of him. Lin Li noticed it at the first time and then looked up.
Countless figures flew up from the land, and they were locusts that were larger in size.
And these locusts were not ordinary creatures. They all emitted spiritual energy fluctuations. The worst had spiritual energy fluctuations of the first stage, and the strongest had spiritual energy fluctuations of the first stage.
"So that's it."
Lin Li saw the locust beasts flying on the land, and he suddenly had some guesses in his mind.
The original text is in Liu # 9 x-on:Shu/Bar!
There is a high probability that there is a locust swarm's nest on the land. These ordinary locusts hiding in the water and suddenly appearing to launch a sneak attack on themselves should be the guards placed outside by the locust swarm.
Now these guards have been killed by Lin Li, and the elite forces on the land have been alarmed. Now a huge army of locusts has appeared, wanting to eliminate Lin Li, the hateful invading enemy.
"I really poked a worm's nest this time." Lin Li muttered to himself as he watched the locust swarm flying quickly from a distance.
In normal times, Lin Li would choose to temporarily avoid the sharp edge, retreating and fighting, and consuming the locust swarm.
But now the sun is about to set, and he has to hurry up, so he does not retreat but advances, and takes the initiative to fly towards the attacking locust swarm.
"Roar..."
"Swish..."
"Boom..."
The fierce battle is about to break out, and Lin Li fights the locust swarm.
The terrible roar of the beast and the explosion sounded above the water, and a burnt smell appeared quickly, and the fresh air became turbid.
The charred limbs and fragments fell like raindrops, falling into the water, splashing many small water splashes.
The fish in the water are blessed. At first, only a few fish came to this place. As time went on, more and more fish came to the waters of the battlefield to enjoy the delicious food.
The battle was carried out in the air. Although it had some impact on the water surface, the impact was not great, so there were so many fish coming here to eat the dead locust bodies.
The number of locust swarms was so large that it seemed that they could not be killed.
Lin Li had thought that since there were so many locusts, he could take this opportunity to collect the corpses of the locusts and provide the essence of blood and flesh to the magical tree, so as to speed up the acquisition of the supernatural fruit.
However, after fighting with the locust swarm for a while, he found that most of the members of the locust swarm were actually ordinary locusts.
In addition, his fireball blew up the locust beasts, and there were too many limbs and fragments flying around. He could not collect them, so he had to give up.
As time passed, the sun in the sky moved a distance towards the horizon, and the sky became darker.
Lin Li and the locust swarms fought against each other, and neither side could do anything to the other for the time being.
"I have killed so many locusts, and I can still maintain this offensive. These guys are really not afraid of death!"
Lin Li didn't know how many locusts he had killed. Whenever the number of insect swarms decreased, another wave of locusts would fly out from the land to replenish.
If it were other creatures, their mentality would have exploded long ago if they were to die one after another.
"Swoosh."
Another fireball flew out from in front of Lin Li, destroying a large wave of locusts.
The difference in strength between the two sides is huge. If Lin Li really wants to end it once and for all, he can do a big wave and directly use his strongest strength to bomb the distant land.
However, since he has just entered the swamp, Lin Li is considering looking for Xuanling grass. If he makes too much noise, it will attract the attention of some powerful beasts in the swamp.
At that time, if he wants to find Xuanling grass safely, the difficulty will increase.
"It's so annoying!"
"I really want to do a big wave..."
Lin Li muttered in his heart that he had spent a lot of time fighting against the locust swarm. If he was asked to retreat now, he would not be willing to do so, so he could only continue the current battle.
A few minutes later, more and more fish gathered in the water below, and these fish had a good meal.
If anyone is the biggest winner of this battle, it is these fish in the water.
Just when Lin Li thought that he could not make the locust swarm that was not afraid of death retreat when the sun went down, the locust swarm that launched a fierce attack suddenly stopped attacking.
Countless locusts retreated, and Lin Li thought they were afraid of being killed.
As a result, the locust swarm retreated hundreds of meters and stopped, staring at Lin Li intently.
"What are you doing?"
"Are you not going to take the initiative to attack and switch to a defensive posture?"
Lin Li raised his hand and touched his chin. He could understand the change of the locust swarm.
His attack just now was not fierce, but it still consumed a lot of the locust swarm.
No matter how resilient the locust swarm is, the death of so many companions in such a short period of time is still a bit of a blow to the entire group.
There should be many creatures living in the swamp, and there are competition between them.
If the locust swarm loses too much, if the competitors come to the door, the nest on the land will probably be taken away.
Just as Lin Li was thinking about the reason why the locust swarm stopped, a very strong psychic fluctuation suddenly broke out on the land.
"Level 2 peak?"
The moment he sensed the psychic fluctuation, Lin Li showed a surprised expression on his face.
He had been fighting with the locusts for so long just now, but he didn't see a level 2 peak locust appear.
At this moment, the opponent emitted psychic fluctuations, obviously to deal with him, a strong enemy.
"Roar..."
A majestic beast roar sounded on the land, and the terrible sound waves spread around. Many flowers, plants and trees were affected and began to shake, making a noisy rustling sound.
Under Lin Li's gaze, a white figure flew up at the location where the psychic fluctuation appeared.
"This locust is actually white?"
"Compared to other locusts, it looks pretty good..."
The whole body is white, and it looks like a locust carved from a piece of white jade. It flew up from the land and flew to a place a hundred meters away from Lin Li at a very fast speed.
The white locust in front of him, which exudes the peak second-level spiritual energy fluctuations, is not big, only one meter long, and looks very petite compared to other locusts.
"Roar..."
The white locust came to Lin Li, but did not attack immediately, and the cry it made was not loud, giving people a gentle feeling.
"What's going on?"
"What does the strange beast seem to be saying to me this time?"
Lin Li was thinking in his heart, and the white locust suddenly spoke human words, full of compromise.
"Human, I don't want to be your enemy, please leave here."
