As I walked through the darkness, a beam of light appeared in front of me. The light looked extremely soft and gentle, and I couldn’t help but walk in the direction of the light.
In that light, I could barely feel anything else, hardly see anything else, my eyes were full of light, but the light was not blinding, and as I was bathed in the light, I did not want to wake up at all. I had never experienced that feeling of comfort before, and I did not know what language to use to describe it.
“He shouldn’t be here.” Even if I could hear the voice, I wouldn’t be able to imagine that the owner of the voice was a man or a woman, old or young. Forget it, I’ll just indulge or enjoy the process, but after the voice has disappeared, I don’t know how long, or seconds, or days, I’m suddenly pushed out of the white light, feeling the normal air around me again.
“Phew …” He slowly breathed out before opening his eyes. He had not yet completely recovered from the feeling of comfort brought by the white light. His soul once again returned to this body that existed in the mortal world.
“You’re finally awake.” It was a very familiar voice. I raised my head and saw that it was senior sister. Her expression seemed to be doing her best to hide her panic. “What’s wrong senior sister? Where are we?” I asked, sitting up and feeling the wet earth around me. I found myself lying on the ground.
“Fortunately, Master Duan and I were able to make it in time, otherwise …” “Ai, I won’t say anymore. It’s good as long as you are awake.” As Senior Sister said this, I remembered that the queen bug used that long thorn to pierce into my body. That thorn was poisonous, and after I was poisoned, I fainted. I didn’t expect that I would be fine.
I opened my shirt and looked. There was indeed a wound on my lower abdomen, but it had basically healed and I didn’t feel any pain. I vaguely remembered the scene when I was unconscious and asked, “Senior sister, how long have I been unconscious for?”
The Senior Sister said, “It’s been about five minutes.” What, only five minutes? Why did I feel so long ago? I couldn’t figure it out.
Looking up, there was a person standing in front of me. He was not tall, his image was slovenly, his clothes and pants were extremely dirty, and he held a mirror in his hand. It was Madman Duan.
“I also met him on the way here. He was the one who just saved you,” I said, looking at him with a puzzled expression. “That bug crawled and squirmed on your body. Master Duan used that mirror to look at it, and the bug ran away.”
Looking ahead, the queen bug raised its front half of its body towards Madman Duan, its blood-red head shaking from time to time, ready to attack at any time. “Master Duan, be careful of that bug, it will spray acid, very powerful, and its poisonous thorns.” “No,” I said.
Madman Duan, who was originally standing steadily, turned his head around and said after hearing my words, “You two brats, don’t move recklessly. See how I take care of these bugs.”
I don’t know much about the Madman Duan, but for some reason, I have an indescribable trust in him. I saw some things from him that were very similar to Master’s;
The queen bug hissed a few times, and the sound didn’t sound like an animal’s vocal cords, but more like the sound of some metal rubbing against metal. As soon as the sound died down, a tube of acid shot out from the queen bug’s head, and I could smell it from so far away.
Madman Duan reacted quickly, she hugged her head and ran back immediately after hearing what I said. She ran over to Senior Sister and pulled us both up and said: “Hurry and run, this thing is too strong.”
A few black lines streaked across my head, I pulled him back and said: “Master Duan, I can’t leave. That person has captured countless of Infant Spirit s, and there’s also that River Lord. I can’t let him go no matter what, Master Duan, don’t you have that mirror? Use that treasure to deal with it.”
Madman Duan said with difficulty: “The mirror is useless. I was in too much of a hurry to save you just now, so I threw the mirror out to smash those bugs. After that, it became useless.”
It can’t be, you dare to throw such a precious thing like this as a brick? But the thought that he was trying to save me still made me grateful.
“Alright then. Master Duan, you can go first. I can deal with it.” I don’t know why, but looking at the River Lord struggling in pain and Infant Spirit holding on with his eyes tightly shut, I couldn’t stop my hatred towards the Old Deaf. If I let him go today, how many more spirit beasts would he harm in the future?
Senior Sister helped me up, and I took out the five ghost talismans, and the Fox Blood on my body disappeared without a trace. Presumably, in order to counter the mother insect’s poison, I had also used all of my strength, and to end the battle quickly, I could only use the power of the five ghost talismans. Just as I was about to ignite the five ghost talismans, a hand pressed onto me, I turned around, and saw the Madman Duan’s bright eyes.
“If I’m not wrong, this Talisman paper borrowed the power of the ghost realm, right?” He said lightly, “Yes, Master Duan.” He said, “Ai, is there really a need to put in so much effort just to meet people you don’t know? The path of ghosts is not something that should be easily tainted. You should understand this point.” I was at a loss for words. Madman Duan said, “I really don’t know if you are an idiot or what is going on. In any case, I would never have been able to do it when I was your age.
As he finished speaking, he took out a round object from his bosom. This object was about the size of a palm and dark in color, making me unable to recall what it was. Suddenly, something flashed through my mind.
He nodded his head, this really surprised me, because I had never thought about this before, and the scales were completely black, and there was a faint trace of divine light flowing on them, from far away, I could feel the undulations coming from them, and I wondered what kind of sacred art the Madman Duan’s wild deities had, at least the Master Chang had not reached this level.
The Madman Duan held onto his scales and muttered something. He suddenly trembled, and then he started talking to himself, I know, this is the Wild Immortal’s upper body, the two of them were conversing right now, only to see the Madman Duan snorting coldly, then he seemed to be thinking about something, and then he started quickly saying something. If someone who was unaware saw this, they would definitely think that he was a lunatic, otherwise, how could he have such a nickname, Madman Duan.
“Alright, alright, alright. I’ll promise you that.” It seems that he and Wild Immortal had discussed this matter beforehand. I feel that it’s a little strange, so logically speaking, the two should already be familiar with each other, and according to Madman Duan’s age, it should have been at least ten years since he was born. However, from the looks of it, he didn’t seem to be very familiar with Wild Immortal, rather he was a little cold.
During this time, the queen bug didn’t come close to us. Instead, it went to the lake, dipped its head into the lake, and kept drinking. I didn’t know how much it drank, but I saw that its body on the shore was thicker than before, and it was still constantly expanding and changing.
The Old Deaf was not anxious at all, he was squatting beside it while smiling merrily, it made me feel extremely numb. Looking at him, I couldn’t help but think: Old Deaf and Madman Duan should be more ridiculing than anyone else, because these two are extremely sloppy, and their clothes and pants are not even the same color. It’s rare that these two would bump into each other, it’s really fate.
Just as my mind was wandering, the queen bug stopped squirming and reached into the water to pull out the part of its body that was actually a few meters longer than before. “Pa” a sound rang out as it was flung to the shore, and its entire body became even thicker by a few times. Its feet under its body were even longer, and it gave off a peculiar feeling.
At this moment, a sudden wave of cold wind came from behind me. I felt like I was being watched, and it was an extremely terrifying feeling, and even the kind of terrifying feeling that could make my heart race, I could only feel it from the fifth master of the Dragon clan. That kind of wild feeling, bringing with it a strong domineering aura without any concealment, to break through everything in front of me.
The queen bug seemed to be shocked by this domineering aura. It kept spinning on the spot, making ear-piercing metal sounds from time to time. The Old Deaf went forward to stroke it, trying to soothe its nervousness.
“He’s here.” The moment he finished speaking, a huge python that was more than ten meters long and as thick as a bucket appeared in front of us, bringing about a gust of wind. Compared to him, Master Chang was like a child.
The python had a triangular head, its mouth was as big as a car’s front cover, and its eyes were flashing red light like two small lanterns. Two long tentacles grew from the sides of its mouth that moved without wind, and seven inches of its scales were standing straight up.
Terror, fear, these are the only words that showed up in my mind. Even though I know that the Madman Duan is his Immortal Mage, I still did not dare to move my body a little because the domineering aura that he was emitting made me unable to believe that the Madman Duan could control him. I even doubted whether he was actually brought here by the Madman Duan.
“You’re here.” When that wild immortal came to our side, I couldn’t help but take two steps back. His huge snake head extended towards Madman Duan, but instead of fear, the Madman Duan frowned and said, “Stay away from me. I said before that I don’t want to smell the smell of your blood.”
I did not really have a response, but the smoke caused Senior Sister to cough continuously, and Madman Duan said: “Mang Kunyu, I do not have much time to waste on you.” Before he could finish speaking, this Python Immortal had already passed through us and was heading straight for the queen bug and Old Deaf on the shore.
Old Deaf hid behind the river lord without turning his head. The queen bug opened its mouth and spat out acid that was like a water lance, and when the acid hit the Python Fairy’s body, a ‘chi-chi chi-chi’ sound would instantly ring out, the scales on its body started to shake continuously, and the Python Immortal quickly circled around the queen bug, but the queen bug seemed to be not used to the speed of the mother insect. It followed suit and spun a few times, and with a slight negligence, the entrance to the cave opened wide, and the mouth of the python fairy bit onto it.
With a hiss, the queen bug’s hard protective layer was penetrated by the python fairy’s teeth. Almost half of her teeth had been inserted into the queen bug’s body, and they were still going deeper and deeper. The queen bug screeched in pain, struggling to move its body to get rid of the python fairy’s sharp teeth.
