Chapter 1074: The Black Tide of Extermination Rises
Chapter 1065 – The Black Tide of Extermination Rises
In the final analysis, it was still the case that the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance had misjudged the number of Daoyi Insects that might exist underneath Shi Lin Prefecture.
The underground caverns, with their thousands of turns, didn’t just occupy an area that was almost equivalent to an entire Stone Prosperity Prefecture.
It was also constantly expanding towards the depths of the underground.
Even Li Fan, who was now in control of the entire swarm, hadn’t even been able to figure out just how big this Hundred Stone Cave Sky of Shi Linzhou was.
Thanks to such a vast cultivation base, the Daoyi Insects were able to proliferate so rapidly.
It would only take less than a month to devour the aura of a state.
“Although paper is thin, it can be broken with a snap of the fingers. But if it is piled up more than once, it can withstand a thousand armies!”
“How can you kill them all with just you alone?”
Feeling the number of Daoyi insect swarms that continued to increase rather than decrease even under the slaughter of the Golden Sword Immortal, Li Fan revealed an inexplicable smile.
……
“Hoo hoo ……”
Looking at another underground cave that had been emptied, the Golden Sword Immortal finally felt a hint of exhaustion.
During this period of time, he hadn’t stopped for a moment. Thousands of golden swords streaked across, illuminating one dark underground cavern after another, leaving behind black insect corpses all over the ground.
How many kills of black worms had he already slaughtered?
One billion? Ten billion?
Even with his Harmonized Immortal Exalt’s spiritual energy reserves, he had almost been drained dry by now.
However, it seemed that the reason here was because it was deep underground and the number of black bugs was too high.
The spiritual qi was very thin, and it was impossible to absorb it to feed itself.
With no other choice, the Golden Sword Immortal could only rely on absorbing the spirit stones stored within his body to slowly recover.
“It has been many years since I have been in such a sorry state.”
The Golden Sword Immortal Exalt, who was sitting on the ground, couldn’t help but sigh.
In his mind’s eye, the past when he was still a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, exploring the clan’s ruins with his companions came to mind.
Suddenly, he inexplicably got up and his face became serious.
It was because he finally realized what was that inexplicable feeling in his heart since he stepped into this Hundred Stone Cave Sky.
It was a warning from the spiritual sense in his heart that hadn’t appeared for a long time.
Three hundred years ago, it was by relying on this sharp intuition that he had become the only survivor in that exploration team.
However, after surviving the disaster, he had been able to enjoy smooth sailing and had not encountered any more misfortune. Because he had almost forgotten this sense of crisis.
Until today, after many years, this spiritual sense warning appeared again!
“This ……”
The Golden Sword Immortal’s heart thumped wildly uncontrollably.
Thoughts turned sharply, and a decision was made at once.
At that moment, he didn’t care about resting, and his body transformed into golden light, soaring furiously towards the depths of the underground cavern.
He wanted to first see just how large this Hundred Stone Cave Heaven was!
Three days later.
Golden Sword Immortal Exalt’s face was pale.
With his flying speed, three days was enough time to encircle the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance territory for several weeks.
Yet, he still hadn’t been able to finish exploring this Hundred Stone Cave Heaven.
It was like an abyss like the sea, so deep that there was no bottom. It was as if there was no end to it at all.
Golden Sword Immortal Zun winced, and the horrifying image of the cave densely covered with black worms, like raging seawater, overflowing towards the outside world sprang up in his mind.
“Woe, woe.”
“No, we have to hurry and report the situation to the Immortal Alliance headquarters.”
Golden Sword Immortal Sovereign hurriedly pulled out a communication spirit talisman, wanting to get in touch with the Immortal Alliance headquarters.
However, it seemed that communication could not be established due to being too deep underground.
The foreboding feeling in Immortal Golden Sword’s heart grew stronger.
His speed increased to the extreme, wanting to leave this underground cave.
However, for some reason, those black insects that were originally just lying quietly feeding on the spiritual qi suddenly surged towards him like mad.
Trying to stop him from moving on.
At this moment, Golden Sword Immortal Zun also finally realized what it meant to be struggling to move forward. No longer holding back, all the golden swords that his body had refined were sheathed in unison, surrounding himself left and right.
All the black insects in front of him were crushed into pieces.
The Golden Sword Immortal quickly returned from the ground with an unrelenting momentum.
The difference between the black bugs before and after made Golden Sword Immortal’s heart more and more certain that there were traces of a conspiracy behind this.
If he didn’t stop it quickly, he was afraid that the repercussions wouldn’t just be in the Shi Lin state. Perhaps the entire Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance or even the Xuan Huang Realm would have to suffer!
“Just who is it that is plotting this great evil!”
The Golden Sword Immortal Sovereign was shocked and angry in his heart, and his figure became faster and faster.
When he finally broke through the heavy barrier of the black worm and saw the sky again.
He was about to report the situation urgently to the Immortal Alliance headquarters, but suddenly his heart felt something and froze in place.
The Golden Sword Immortal looked up and extended his left hand towards the sky.
“The …… wind has risen?”
A breeze inexplicably blew between heaven and earth.
And then the breeze gradually became bigger and stronger.
The whistling sound was like thunder, rumbling.
What was still a blazing sunny sky was covered by layers of dark clouds in the blink of an eye.
With the shadows looming over them, at this moment, all the Shi Linzhou cultivators had the feeling of a great disaster in their hearts.
“Whew!”
A gust of demonic wind blew by, and the strength of the wind was so fierce that it actually made it somewhat difficult for the Golden Sword Immortal to maintain his stance.
Although this demonic wind had disappeared in an instant, the implication represented behind it made this Harmonious Dao Immortal Zun’s heart go cold.
A subtle, dense wind sound seemed to come from his ears again.
However, the Golden Sword did not sense any sign of the wind’s existence.
Just as he was puzzled, countless flying insects, which looked like huge black waves, suddenly appeared from below.
Riding the wind, they surged out of the hundred stone cave.
It shook the nine heavens, like a destructive cloud, spreading out inexorably towards the states of the Xuan Huang Realm.
In front of the immeasurable sea of black insects, the Golden Sword’s protective spiritual power was also as precarious as a weak sapling in a storm.
The appalled Golden Sword Immortal Exalt could no longer think of stopping the calamity.
He only tried his best to ensure his own safety.
The black insects in the underground cave seemed endless. As far as the Golden Sword could see, he could no longer see any other scene.
Being in the nightmare of the black tide, moving, breathing, all became a delusional thing.
Even if the black bugs were not the target of the attack, they were only crushed by them on their way to migrate.
Under the boundless sea of black insects, this Harmonious Dao Immortal still gradually lost consciousness.
“It’s over ……”
The first thing that surfaced in the Golden Sword Immortal Exalt’s mind in the split second before he lost consciousness was not the safety of his own life.
Rather, it was the accountability that would ensue from the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance after the insect plague was resolved in the future.
“Damn, I would not have agreed to this crap errand had I known what to say.”
The figure slowly faded, eventually transforming into a golden longsword that seemed to be made up of thousands of small swords, and crashed to the ground with a clang.
Indeed, with the Black Worm’s strength, at most, it would make the Harmonization Cultivator exhaust his strength and briefly pass out.
Wanting to put them to death was somewhat insufficient.
However, ……
Li Fan’s figure emerged from the black tide.
Picking up this golden long sword, a hint of a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
And then casually struck tens of thousands of formation prohibitions.
