Seeing two legends engaging, three Dan-level cultivators also made their move.
Five legends coordinated their approach to surround them.
Ji Xinghuo had no choice but to stop searching for the Alien Species, raised the Black Constant Crystal Battle Bow, and with his right hand, he drew an arrow, all of which were explosive fla arrows. His movents were as fast as a phantom, and in one second he had shot seven arrows. Like a string of fiery teors, they flew a kiloter away, shooting into the enemy swarm.
Bang bang bang...
The explosive fla arrows continuously burst into high-temperature flas, sweeping through the swarm, but the dense mass of insects changed trajectory, intuitively spreading out, creating voids in the cloud.
The blasts of fire only killed a very few insects, proving minimally effective.
Yet the swarm continued to advance at high speed.
This was the power of the Insect Emperor: overwhelming numbers that did not fear arrows, and even if a portion was killed, their combat strength was unaffected.
"Leave the Insect Emperor to ," Ren Mian called out softly.
Ji Xinghuo then ceased his attack on the swarm. Through electromagnetic induction, he found Qi Feng, the Lord of Nature, who had tunneled underground and was advancing rapidly. anwhile, the three legendary Dan-level cultivators also spread out but deliberately slowed their pace, obviously intending to join the battle when soone else engaged in combat.
"Go!"
With a thought, Ji Xinghuo released four beams of sword light into the sky, which then turned and plumted downwards, all accelerating towards the ground.
Qi Feng happened to be Earth Tunneling to that location.
Clang clang clang...
The ground turned as hard as rock, and the blades could not penetrate too deeply underground before getting stuck. Qi Feng abruptly accelerated, closing in below the surface to within a hundred ters.
With a roar, the earth trembled.
A tall wall of stone shot up from the ground, standing before Ren Mian’s monstrous army, and behind the wall, a great many plants and creatures also grew. However, the type and number of creatures under Qi Feng’s control were fewer than Ren Mian’s, and their quality was sowhat inferior.
But Qi Feng had empowered them with a layer of stone skin, and they surged out from behind the wall before it could be destroyed.
The two monstrous armies clashed together.
Qi Feng himself stayed hidden underground, never showing himself.
Ji Xinghuo attempted several tis to strike at Qi Feng with beams of sword light piercing the ground, but was always a step behind, missing like whack-a-mole.
Lords of Nature evolved from Earthwalkers and Plant Witches; the earth was Qi Feng’s best cover.
And it was his main battleground.
"Legendary Second Dan, an advanced profession, indeed has so tricks up its sleeve," Ji Xinghuo, unable to find a way to force Qi Feng out, imdiately redirected his sword light, slashing through Qi Feng’s controlled creatures nurous tis until most were dead.
However, Qi Feng did not care for the creatures, directly abandoning them.
Through electromagnetic induction, he had dived dozens of ters below.
"Be careful!"
Ji Xinghuo sent out a warning to Ren Mian.
Almost at the sa ti, hundreds of rock spikes burst forth from the ground, these Earth Spurs as thick as pillars and seven to eight ters tall, threw the area into total disarray.
Ji Xinghuo leaped into the air one step ahead, not getting pierced.
The Green Lock Dragon beneath Ren Mian blocked the Earth Spurs, which had just shown their tips, before being wrapped in thick vines, negating any damage.
Nurous vines grew among the Earth Spurs, spreading in all directions and whipping through the air.
The Green Lock Dragon gathered and fought with the vines.
The two Plant Witches began a contest of who could control the plants better; it was like two armies clashing. The Green Lock Dragon cut through like a hot knife through butter, instantly gaining the upper hand, but the vines grew even faster. As soon as one wave was torn apart, new vines surged forward like waves, making it hard to gain an advantage.
Ji Xinghuo looked up at the sky; the swarm had already devoured Ren Mian’s Poison Stinger Flying Dragon and spore bats, closing in within two to three hundred ters, diving down in a dark, dense mass.
Despite dozens of green spore shooters firing fruit like machine guns at the swarm,
it did little to stem the tide.
While facing the attacks of two Legendary Second Dan powerhouses, Ren Mian remained composed and said to Ji Xinghuo, "Think of a way to drag him out from underground."
She had been trying to extend plants deep underground, but couldn’t locate Qi Feng.
"Leave it to Qing Hong."
Ji Xinghuo finally thought of a plan. He patted his pocket, and Qing Hong crawled out, having shrunken even further, now less than a centiter long, resembling an insect.
"Fetch that guy underground."
Qing Hong imdiately grasped Ji Xinghuo’s idea, hopping to the base of an Earth Spur where a large clump of vines grew and burrowed underground along the vines.
The vines’ root system had opened up cracks underground, which were like a complex network of subterranean tunnels for the tiny Qing Hong.
Ji Xinghuo’s electromagnetic induction had already locked onto Qi Feng, guiding Qing Hong to the target.
But this took ti.
Ji Xinghuo didn’t just wait; he shot up into the air like a rocket, instantly attracting the swarm as it frantically dove towards him. His eyes sparked with electricity, and with a clap of thunder, countless bolts of lightning erupted from him, piercing through the air and expanding into a sky filled with electric arcs.
An ionization storm!
The fiery plasma lightning spread, and within a 150-ter radius, every inch of space, save for the position below Ren Mian, was ravaged by the electric arcs.
The swarm imdiately suffered heavy losses, countless insects burned to ashes.
Yet more than half of the insects escaped the ionization storm’s range, regrouped into a swarm, and these black beetles, with their hard shells, took the form of a two-ter-tall humanoid, continually compressing and aggregating until a figure erged.
It resembled a standing mantis wielding two giant scimitars, covered in armor, exuding a fierce aura.
Ji Xinghuo wasn’t surprised.
This image of the Insect Emperor made it clear it was a branch of the Insect Clan, the Mandikhoras.
