Chapter 877 – Me Now
Legend has it that the death worm was a magical beast from hell, and in many evil stories, it was the main character. Some people said that death worm did not have a specific shape, and that they could change at will to devour the living. Some people said that the death worm was actually very small, and that the larvae of the death worm existed in everyone’s body. The insect could sense the thoughts of good and evil from humans. Once the evil thoughts gained the upper hand, the insect would burst the human body and replace it.
But there had never been a legend that a death worm was this big. This death worm in front of An Zheng and the others was only one-third of a meter long, but it was around twenty to thirty meters long. The insect was covered with creases, so it was impossible to estimate how long it was. When the death worm charged forward, it was like a snake’s head, and those wrinkles would spread out and its body would become even longer.
“It’s for the black cassock.”
An Zheng held Qu Liuxi’s waist and rushed into the sky, with his other hand pressing downwards, a wave of vast power rushed out and struck the death worm’s head. But just as the Cultivation Power was about to hit the death worm, the death worm’s head suddenly shrank, and its fleshy body seemed to become armor that covered its eyes.
The Cultivation Power struck its head, unexpectedly there was no meaning. If the Cultivation Power was incomparably sharp, then it gave people the feeling that there was a layer of greasy substance on the surface of the death worm. The moment the blade touches it, it would slip to the side without any resistance.
The lower half of the death worm’s body was still inside the desert, and when it wriggled forward, the nearby desert was also churning. An Zheng’s hand pushed forward on Qu Liuxi’s back, and his body immediately flew into the distance. An Zheng landed on the desert and rushed forward. Floating on the left side of his body was the Heaven’s Killing Sword, while floating on the right side was the Broken Army Sword. The moment An Zheng activated both swords, they shot forward at the same time.
As the sword flew forward, its body split into sword Qi shadows, storming towards the death worm s likorrential rain. The scene was like two circling fighter jets firing off all the missiles in an instant.
The death worm could feel the sharpness of the two swords, and it suddenly shrank back even more. Thus, its originally round face shrunk into a disk. From afar, it looked likound shield!
All of the sword Qis struck the round shield, but the surface of the round shield was not flat. It was curved, so the sword Qis actually slid all around. In a short moment, at least a few hundred sword Qis that crashed into the round disc and flew out to the surroundings. The desert around the death worm seemed to have been scattered like a bomb, the rumbling sounds continued, stirring up waves of sand in the desert.
“Let’s see how long you can last!”
An Zheng’s body suddenly flew up, and pressed down from the sky.
An invisible force was released from his body, and the insect’s body sank down. Under the huge pressure, it smashed into the desert, causing its height to drop by at least one meter. The surrounding sand dunes exploded and the scene was incomparably shocking.
But the moment this insect’s body hit the desert, it became flat, as if there was no power acting on it.
An Zheng’s continuous attacks had also enraged the death worm, it knew that if it did not kill this person, it would not be possible to obtain the treasure. Its body swelled up once more and its head began to spin … It looked as if there was a bearing on its neck, and its head could spin very fast on its neck. As it spun, each of its eyes opened. There was a small hole in its eye, and a dark green liquid sprayed out from the hole.
The speed at which the liquid shot out was surprisingly fast. The most terrifying thing was its coverage. An Zheng was at leasundred meters away from the thing, and the liquid that was shot out like countless green arrows could even reach a distance of a thousand meters. An Zheng and Qu Liuxi were both covered in the poison arrows.
“Be careful!”
An Zheng teleported to block it for Qu Liuxi. He raised his hand and saw a drop of liquid on his arm.
“Not only can it corroderson’s body, it can also corrode Cultivation Power.”
An Zheng shook his head: “This thing is a little scary.”
Qu Liuxi immediately took out a bottle of medicine and poured it onto An Zheng’s arm. After the medicine came in contact with the wound, it controlled the corrosion, but the wound actually did not show any signs of recovery.
“It’s not poison.”
Qu Liuxi frowned deeply: “It is a dark power, I don’t know what it is, but it is definitely not poison. The liquid is only a form of this power, the antidote is useless, the medicine is only used to control the injury. ”
An Zheng acknowledged this. Although there was only a single drop on his arm, but he felt his body becoming weaker aapid pace. This power seemed to be anesthetic and extremely strong. If it was a normal person, they would have already fallen down.
“We have to end this quickly.”
Witap of An Zheng’s feet, the scene of the sand under his feet exploding was incomparably shocking. His body shot towards the death worm like lightning, and all the eyes of the disk formed by the death worm’s face shifted to the center. Then, he shot out an arrow filled with venom towards An Zheng. That scene looked like a giant bug shooting lasers at An Zheng.
An Zheng rolled his body and dodged. With his left hand, he threw out the Orthodox Pure Yang. The poison actually quickly corroded the Orthodox Pure Yang.
However, the Orthodox Pure Yang blocked the venom for a second, after An Zheng dodged it, he rose into the air, his entire body emitting a resplendent purple light.
[Heavenly Thunder Shower]!
An Zheng immediately used his strongest attack, the Forbidden Technique Heavenly Thunder Shower.
Streams of purple lightning, like heavenly punishments, struck the death worm’s body. The insect’s body quickly curled up intuge round ball. The purple lightning struck the bugs’ bodies and most of them were blown away. The surrounding desert seemed to have been baptized by a rain of missiles. A few seconds later, with a “hong” sound, the desert within a hundred meter radius suddenly collapsed. The sand flowed down like a waterfall, and the death worm was sucked into the black hole along the sand sea.
A rotten stench rose up from below, An Zheng couldn’t help but feel dizzy.
Surprisingly, the Heavenly Thunder Shower was not even able to kill the death worm, as its defensive power was truly too strong. An Zheng turned around and was about to leave with Qu Liuxi. After all, such a violent fluctuation of Sky Origin Stage might attract the attention of the cultivators of the country. However, he saw that Qu Liuxi had already rushed down from the gigantic hole that had collapsed, and turned to shout at An Zheng: “You must kill it, or else the dark energy within your body will continue to corrode you, and you will die.”
An Zheng felt his mind was in a mess, and his body started to float. But after seeing Qu Liuxi rushing in, he didn’t hesitate at all and immediately jumped down from the hole that collapsed. It was very dark down there, with only a straight ray of sunlight coming from the cave entrance. The surroundings were filled with that rotten stench. The smell was so strong that if it was anyone else, they would have been unable to smell it.
The moment An Zheng landed on the ground, he was immediately held by Qu Liuxi and stuffed into the mouth of a pill.
“Corpse Qi.”
Qu Liuxi said these two words in a low voice, and vigilantly looked around him. The gigantic death worm seemed to have fled because it was afraid of An Zheng’s Heavenly Thunder Shower and was temporarily unable to sense its existence. Taking advantage of this moment of silence, An Zheng looked around at his surroundings before his expression involuntarily changed.
As his eyes got used to the darkness below, An Zheng realized that there were huge holes all around him. And these tunnels, were most likely come from the death worm. This was its nest, and in every tunnel, there were large amounts of skeletons, all of them human.
Qu Liuxi squatted down and took a look, her eyes filled with anger: “The earliest bones are at least a few hundred years old, and the most recent is about a month or so. “Look over there …”
She pointed to the place with the heaviest rotting smell. An Zheng looked towards where she was pointing and saw a mountain of corpses. Those were the people who had not been eaten by the death worm yet. They were all dead, and judging from their clothes, there waortion of them who were from the Central Plains.
“These beasts!”
An Zheng scolded, his eyes turning red.
“They are raising that death worm with people, that’s why they keep killing people … Their goal against the Central Plains merchants was not only to snatch the treasures, but also to store the food for the death worm. There were more than ten thousand corpses here. The broken bones were spread out on the ground, and the moment one stepped on them, they would shatter over a long period of time. It was simply impossible to calculate how many people there were.
“This thing is already powerful enough, it doesn’t need the zhengzong’s people to feed it and it still dares to go out to hunt for humans. It must be killed.”
An Zheng pulled Qu Liuxi along: “You stay behind me.”
Qu Liuxi asked with concern: “How are your injuries?”
An Zheng felt his body, although the feeling of weakness was getting stronger and stronger, he could still hold on. The insect must be watching them from the shadows, if they did not kill it while they were still able to, if he was unable to hold on, Qu Liuxi would be in danger. Even if he threw Qu Liuxi out now, with the worm’s speed, Qu Liuxi wouldn’t be able to leave the desert.
“I’m fine.”
An Zheng shook his head, and then pulled Qu Liuxi along as he walked forward: “I can find it … Although Heavenly Thunder Shower was unable to kill it, it was already injured, which was why it was hiding. He’s very smart and wants to use the terrain of his lair to kill us. As long as its Heavenly Thunder Shower still exists, I will be able to find it. ”
As An Zheng walked forward, he couldn’t help but stagger when he just took a step.
“It’s kind of scary …”
He steadied himself. “The purpose of the s being raised by the people of the zhengzong must be very, very big … Either they were going to wage war, or they were going to exterminate a group. Even I can’t hold on to the power that this death worm spouted, much less others. Once this thing was released, a single bug could sweep away an entire country. By then, all the people would be its food. What was even more terrifying was … This thing was still continuously evolving. The more it ate, the stronger it would become. Those bastards of the zhengzong never considered that the death worm would become the most terrifying thing in the world in the future. No one could stop them, and they themselves would become the death worm’s food. ”
Qu Liuxi suddenly pulled at An Zheng who was walking in front of him, and then walked in front of An Zheng: “I am very happy that my man is protecting me, because I feel that it is something thaeerless hero should do. And now, it’s my turn to protect my man. That’s what a woman who loves her man should do. ”
“You are in the back.”
“No,” she said.
