Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension

Chapter 364: Chapter 267 Thunder Insect Catastrophe_2

In his white robe, Yelu saw and was overjoyed, then he smiled suggestively at Zhao Sheng and his companion.

At that moment, Yao Fang’s calm voice sounded next to Zhao Sheng’s ear, “May I know what Master Zhao would like to request?”

Zhao Sheng transmitted his thoughts through Divine Sense, “A Nie Crystal weighing at least ten jun and with a purity of over ninety-nine percent.”

“Deal!” Yao Fang decisively dropped the two words.

The other’s prompt agreement made Zhao Sheng feel that he had underestimated his bargaining power.

In just a few words, the three of them had successively reached agreements with Yao Fang.

...

The financial strength of the Vast Sect was evident from this.

…

Shortly afterward, a crack suddenly split open in the upper layer of the Disc-shaped Boat.

In the next instant, five streaks of light flew out from the crack and then scattered, firmly guarding the front of the Cloud Boat, positioned on the upper, lower, left, and right sides, with Yao Fang sitting in the center.

Yelu was surrounded by a layer of yellow light, standing above the roaring Cloud Sea.

Looking at the countless Thunder Insects of various sizes around him, he suddenly grinned and a huge hand made of yellow sand flew out from his body.

With a bang, the hand of yellow sand exploded, scattering grains wrapped in yellow light, turning into a vast golden sand waterfall that blocked the self-detonation of the Thunder Insects on one side.

Thunderous explosions of thunder light erupted as Yelu waved his hands, casting several spells that immediately stabilized the golden sand waterfall.

Seeing this, the Elder Yao Fang finally breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly turned around, and with a wave of his hand, a cluster of black light shot out from his body, hanging in mid-air and expanding rapidly, quickly turning into a pitch-black Dark Domain.

Thunderous roars!

Countless bolts of lightning fell into the pitch-dark domain and instantly vanished as if swallowed by a great river.

At the right side of the Cloud Boat, Zhao Sheng unleashed thousands of strands of Sword Light from his hands, brilliant as if scattered by a Heavenly Girl yet harboring endless lethality.

Within a hundred zhang radius, Thunder Insects simultaneously exploded, transforming into a vast thunderstorm.

At the same time, other True Immortals also showed their prowess.

A moment later, the pressure on the Sea Suppression Cloud Boat sharply decreased, and its speed suddenly increased significantly.

However, before these Foundation Establishment Deacons could relax, a sharp, oppressive buzzing sound suddenly came from the deep Cloud Sea.

This sound, as if at an extremely high frequency with astonishing penetrative power, seemed capable of piercing through all things in the world, instantly causing a chill to arise in everyone’s hearts.

The Elder Yao Fang’s face also changed, as the surrounding Cloud Sea churned and then forcefully spread in all directions, revealing the enormous figure of a creature nearly a thousand zhang large.

“Not good, a Sixth Rank Thunder Mother!” Zhao Sheng’s pupils shrank, his expression turning utterly grave.

…

Buzz! Buzz!

The defensive light shield on the surface of the Sea Suppression Cloud Boat suddenly shone brightly, quickly activated to its limit.

Zhao Sheng’s expression turned stern, as within his Divine Sense, a destructive force was brewing inside the Sixth Rank Thunder Mother two hundred zhang away.

Meanwhile, countless Thunder Insects, spurred by the emergence of their matriarch, became even more frenzied, flying toward them fearlessly, often exploding into bursts of thunder and lightning upon impact.

Seeing this, Jiao Zuo with his red hair, Daoist Feng Hou, and others changed expressions, their demeanor turning serious as they focused intently on the incoming tide of insects.

A sharp glint flashed in Zhao Sheng’s eyes, the Golden Crow True Fire in his Dantian stirring restlessly, while a layer of golden light surfaced on his body.

Just then, an extremely irritated roar suddenly came from above.

“Ah, damn it!”

Upon hearing this, Zhao Sheng’s body paused, and he looked up towards the sky, only to see Jiao Zuo with his red hair and yellow face, half of his body already charred black, surrounded by dazzling thunder light and splashing Thunder Slurry.

This man had been ambushed by a high-level Thunder Insect and was now furious with embarrassment; in front of him, unbeknownst when, appeared a waist-thick, man-tall dark red treasure bottle.

This bottle was red as cinnabar all over, densely inscribed with blazing red runes, and its surface emitted a strong red light

Jiao Zuo merely slapped the bottle with one hand, and a blaze shot up from the opening, countless Fire Crows pouring out and enveloping the surrounding hundred zhang radius.

Amidst a loud roar, the Fire Crows individually sought out the surrounding Thunder Insects, exploding on their own, turning into numerous campfire-like red flames.

In the blink of an eye, the area within several hundred zhang was transformed into a blazing sea of flaming fire.

Within this crimson Fire Sea, Thunder Insects emitted painful buzzing sounds, their dough-like carapaces completely unable to resist even a bit.

In just a breath or two, thousands of Thunder Insects were engulfed in the vast Fire Sea, turning into wisps of blue smoke.

Three hundred zhang away in mid-air, astonishment appeared in Zhao Sheng’s eyes.

Jiao Zuo, this mere Fake Pill cultivator, surprisingly possesses such astonishing magical treasures; their grade must be at least mid-grade.

The Spiritual Fire transformed from his Fire Crow is alarmingly powerful; it is evidently top-grade Heaven and Earth Spiritual Fire.

This man truly has had extraordinary encounters; no wonder he managed to achieve Golden Core.

“Could this treasured bottle be the object he relies on?”

Zhao Sheng’s thoughts flashed, yet his movements were not slow, instantly summoning the magical treasure, the Starfall Seven Spirit Sword.

The Starfall Sword emitted a clear sword cry and its blade burst forth with dazzling, clear light, and with a humming brilliance, it suddenly split into eight, and then from eight to sixty-four.

Sixty-four beams of sword light turned into dazzling sword rainbows hundreds of feet long, instantly filling a space of three hundred yards in diameter.

The cloud mist was cleaved by the sword light, numerous Thunder Insects annihilated; the terrifying result made thousands of cultivators watching from the Cloud Boat tremble with fear.

Though Zhao Sheng had only formed his Core a few years ago, his Divine Sense was as strong as a Golden Core Third Level, coupled with his unique Star God Thousand Heart Technique, allowing him to multitask significantly, with one person’s actions equating to that of several Golden Core Masters.

Seeing this scene, other cultivators also began to rejoice wildly.

“Let Feng Hou and I deal with the Sixth Rank Thunder Mother; other daoists, please fully engage. Just hold on a little longer and the Cloud Boat will surely break through this Thunder Cloud! I’m counting on you all!” Amidst the sky, Yao Fang’s voice resounded in the ears of Zhao Sheng and others.

At that moment, countless Thunder Insects surrounding the Cloud Boat suddenly began to loiter reluctantly, seeming to dread something, yet their mouths emitted bursts of buzzing roars.

Two Golden Core Masters from the Vast Sect resolutely confronted them.

In an instant, the massive Thunder Mother with sea-like Thunder Light, a thousand-feet dark domain, and eight enormous Dragon Tornadoes clashed head-on.

Boom, boom!

The ten-mile radius of dark clouds was instantly swept clear, the atmosphere compressed to near vacuum in an instant.

Seizing this opportunity, the Cloud Boat suddenly plummeted downwards, its speed doubling as if boosted by adrenaline.

Zhao Sheng and others were unprepared, thrown off several miles.

“Fuck!” Jiao Zuo cursed aloud upon seeing this.

Although Zhao Sheng and Yelü did not curse aloud, their expressions were equally grim.

However, since they had accepted favors, it was not appropriate to desert in the midst of battle.

Besides, with traps everywhere around, it wasn’t a good place to run away.

At this time, a strange hissing sound arose from the sea of insects ten miles away. The black clouds split open, Thunder Insects suddenly dispersed, and five massive Thunder Mothers emerged in succession.

These Thunder Mothers, like colossal jellyfish floating in the air, slightly transparent with electric light surging within, with nearly a hundred long tentacles hanging below, the surfaces of the tentacles throbbing with countless lightning drifting threads,

these five Thunder Mothers, without exception, were all high-level demon insects comparable to the Golden Core Realm, ranging from Third Rank to Fifth Rank.@@novelbin@@

“Be careful, my swarm of Fire Crows might not be able to hold off the high-level Thunder Mothers!” In mid-air, Jiao Zuo’s warning voice resounded in Zhao Sheng’s ears.

No sooner had his voice dropped than an unexpected change occurred.

Roar!

A massive Thunder Insect, second only to the Sixth Rank Thunder Mother in size, suddenly let out a fierce roar. Its body abruptly lit up with a thick layer of lightning, its tentacles curling upwards, twisting into a huge Lightning Ring and striking directly towards the frantically escaping Disc-shaped Boat.

The other four Thunder Mothers were also enveloped in blazing Thunder Light, charging together towards Zhao Sheng and two others.

Seeing the scene, Jiao Zuo rapidly chanted a spell, all the while forcefully infusing True Yuan into the Fire Crow Treasure Bottle, countless squawking Fire Crows gushing from the bottle’s mouth, half of them splitting off to fend off other Thunder Insects, the other half merging into a single, gigantic Fire Crow with a wingspan of over twenty yards, barely intercepting one of the high-level Thunder Mothers.

“I’m already overwhelmed. The remaining three Thunder Mothers are up to you two to deal with,” Jiao Zuo urgently transmitted to Zhao Sheng and another.

“I’m also incapable of doing more, only able to temporarily withstand the strongest one.”

The white-robed Yelü let out an internal roar of anger. A great quantity of sand burst forth from the hem and sleeves of his robe, rising into the mid-air.

His body radiated golden light, and the swirling sands furiously gathered back, instantly forming a twenty-yard tall sand giant.

The giant charged fiercely, intercepting one of the Fourth Rank Thunder Mothers.

Sand belongs to earth, naturally countering thunder and lightning.

Even if Yelü’s strength was inferior to the Fourth Rank Thunder Mother, he could still hold on for one or two hours.

Zhao Sheng’s pupils contracted, inwardly cursing the dire situation.

He was only at the Golden Core First Layer, facing two Third Rank Thunder Mothers simultaneously was already somewhat beyond his limits.

…Not that he couldn’t defeat them, but rather… it hurt to continue!

Zhao Sheng’s eyes flickered a few times and, with a whoosh from his sleeve, he released a five-layer high Complete Heaven Talisman Plate.
