Chapter 1434 - 1353:
Looking at that posture, it seems to be mocking Dugu Yue and the others, feeling their fear.
"Attack!"
Dugu Yue seized the opportunity, shouted, and the twin swords had already flown out.
The two swords were truly like two dragons breaching the water, forming afterimages in mid-air, crashing towards the Insect King’s face.
At the same time Dugu Yue unleashed his twin swords, Feng Wuxiu also shouted, "Quick, retreat!"
He mobilized the True Qi within himself to its peak, his speed reaching its utmost limit, suddenly retreating.
Zheng Zheng!
At this moment, the sound of two consecutive metallic clashes rang out.
The twin swords, which Dugu Yue was proud of, stabbed the Insect King’s body but left not a single mark.
The Insect King, however, was enraged by this and, with a stretch of its tongue, swallowed the two treasured swords.
Twisting its body, it appeared before Dugu Yue.
However, instead of swallowing Dugu Yue, the Insect King ruthlessly struck with its antennae.
Dugu Yue’s body flew out like a kite with a broken string, hitting the cave wall, breaking an unknown number of bones, losing half a life.
And that was not the end; as the Insect King turned violent, those shadow insects blocked Feng Wuxiu and the others’ retreat path.
Yet they did not move to eat them, just stretched their tongues out, intimidating.
Soon, Dugu Yue, Feng Wuxiu, and the others found themselves surrounded again.
Everyone felt doomed this time.
The Insect King’s throat let out a rumble like thunder, approaching Dugu Yue and others like a cat playing with a mouse.
Mockery!
This Insect King had clearly developed a Spiritual Sense.
Initially, it was a bit hungry, which was why it swallowed people directly, but now it was evidently not so hungry, intentionally mocking Dugu Yue and others.
In the Insect King’s eyes, Dugu Yue and the others were mere toys.
This feeling was very unpleasant.
No one dared to speak.
They were all tense, ready to fight the Insect King to the death at any moment.
And just then, the Insect King, originally like a demon, suddenly started to twist crazily.
Its massive body hit the cave, knocking off large chunks of stone.
Seeing the Insect King’s condition, the other shadow insects squeaked anxiously, but they were helpless.
This scene was peculiarly astonishing to Dugu Yue and the others.
Feng Wuxiu did not want to miss this opportunity. Seeing the Insect King rolling frantically, he jumped up quickly, aiming the sword in his hand at the Insect King’s eye.
Thump!
With the sound of flesh being pierced, the sword stabbed directly into the Insect King’s eye.
The Insect King seemed to go mad, tossing its head and throwing Feng Wuxiu out, not much different from Dugu Yue’s situation.
However, the Insect King was still not dead.
No disciple from Wan Jian Villa dared to approach.
"Boom!"
As the Insect King reached the peak of its rage, its abdomen suddenly exploded.
A huge hole instantly appeared in the Insect King’s belly.
The Insect King let out a wail but still did not die.
A figure darted out from the Insect King’s stomach, looking at the crazily rolling Insect King, raised the sword and chopped off the Insect King’s antennae.
"Screech..."
This time, the sharp shriek directly made some low-level disciples’ eardrums bleed.
But this move greatly harmed the Insect King.
"Quick, those antennae are the shadow insects’ weakness!" Ye Guichen, seeing this, was excited and, without greeting Feng Wuxiu, after shouting, directly wielded a hundred swords and chopped off both of the Insect King’s antennae.
Once both antennae were severed, the Insect King lay motionless on the ground, evidently dead.
Feng Wuxiu did not recognize Ye Guichen, after all, Ye Guichen was now covered in the disgusting stomach acid of the Insect King.
However, seeing someone able to dart out from the Insect King’s stomach, their hearts filled with admiration and without thinking much, they swung their treasured swords to chop at the shadow insects’ antennae.
It turned out, no matter how they slashed other parts of the shadow insects, either they split them in half or couldn’t cut through them.
But once the antennae were severed, the shadow insects immediately appeared as if dried up, fell to the ground, and soon turned to dust.
With a method to kill the shadow insects, Feng Wuxiu and the others’ spirits were lifted, turning passive into active, starting a frenzied slaughter.
But this time was completely different from before.
Those shadow insects did not resist; they even kept crowding towards the Insect King.
Looking at them, it seemed as if the Insect King was in danger, and they all wanted to desperately save it.
Ye Guichen would not let them have the chance.
He directly straddled the Insect King’s head, clamped his legs tightly, remaining still despite the Insect King’s shaking.
With his hands performing sword techniques, he unleashed a frenzy attack on the Insect King’s antennae using his hundred swords.
Efforts reaped rewards.
Who knows how many chops he made.
Finally, those two antennae cracked consecutively like glass.
Then, the struggling Insect King crumbled to the ground, its body rapidly shrinking, soon becoming as thin as a thumb, like a long rope.
Ye Guichen was thinking about how to obtain the Insect King’s Demon Core.
But before he acted, the Insect King turned to ash, dispersing in the cave.
Once the Insect King died, those shadow insects scattered like headless flies, fleeing in all directions.
A few minutes later, the cave once again returned to tranquility.
Ye Guichen wiped his face, letting out a long breath.
The feeling of being corroded by stomach acid just now was truly unpleasant.
However, fortunately in such moments, Ye Guichen became even calmer.
He tried several methods consecutively, found the Insect King’s body exceptionally tough and flexible, unable to inflict harm no matter what he did.
In the end, with no choice, Ye Guichen had to unleash a thunder strike, directly blasting open the Insect King’s belly.
The moment he escaped, Ye Guichen also thought of the shadow insects’ antennae.
Thinking that the shadow insects’ antennae might be their weakness.
Turns out, that trial truly worked.
"Senior, your great kindness and virtue, our Wan Jian Villa will never forget!" After ensuring there was no danger around, Dugu Yue took a few pills, barely stood up, came to Ye Guichen, and bowed to thank him.
"Wan Jian Villa?" Ye Guichen did not expect to encounter people from Wan Jian Villa here, looked up after glancing at Dugu Yue, his gaze falling on Feng Wuxiu: "Feng Wuxiu?"
Hearing someone call his name out, Feng Wuxiu was taken aback too, looked up at Ye Guichen.
Ye Guichen now appeared extremely tattered.
His clothes were almost corroded away.
Leaving only a pair of shorts.
However, sticky all over, emitting a strange odor, impossible to recognize without a close look.
Yet during this time, Feng Wuxiu had always targeted Ye Guichen, often recalling the scene of Ye Guichen wielding ten swords, wishing to meet Ye Guichen again someday.
"Are you Mr. Ye?" Remembering Ye Guichen’s recent hundred swords control and his voice, Feng Wuxiu suddenly became incredibly excited, fell to his knees before Ye Guichen: "Mr. Ye, twice saving my life, I, Feng Wuxiu, have nothing to repay, this life, henceforth is yours!"
Feng Wuxiu was so excited he became somewhat incoherent.
Dugu Yue was slightly startled, suspiciously asked: "Wuxiu, do you know this senior?"
Feng Wuxiu straightened up: "This is the Mr. Ye who saved me and Chu Chu, before I greatly offended Ye Guichen, but Mr. Ye was magnanimous, didn’t mind at all, I never expected to encounter Mr. Ye here again."
"Mr. Ye?" Dugu Yue showed a thoughtful expression: "Wuxiu, this senior is the one who obtained a treasure from the Spirit Beast Sect?"
Feng Wuxiu didn’t hear the undertone in Dugu Yue’s words, nodded repeatedly upon hearing this.
Dugu Yue didn’t say much more, rather enthusiastically, performed another courtesy: "So it’s Senior Ye, your great grace towards our Wan Jian Villa is profound, the fact we meet here today is indeed a matter of fate!"
Ye Guichen smiled slightly, but didn’t say much, instead asked in return: "Why are you here?"
