The Lord of Void and Real-Chapter 1566 - 1562 Killing Poisonous Insects

"Is that all? Seems a bit too simple, doesn’t it?" Li Biao expressed his doubts.

As he spoke, he glanced uneasily to the great hall’s rooftop, only to see it empty and void of any new poisonous insects.

"Don’t be careless; let’s focus on finding the Soul Birth Pillar first," Tao Xiang said, looking around.

No sooner had she finished speaking than noises were heard again from the rooftop, much louder than before.

Everyone looked up following the sound, only to see several bizarre humanoid creatures appearing on the roof beams at some point.

These creatures looked like six or seven-year-old children with purple skin, completely naked, grotesquely hanging upside down from the beams.

"How did these things appear?" Ghost Vine Master exclaimed in astonishment.

"I have no idea. I just looked up there and saw nothing, but then they suddenly popped out," Li Biao said lightly.

Just then, the children turned their heads to look down at the few below. Everyone saw that their eyes were unnaturally large, pitch black without any whites, and they even had strange curved horns on their foreheads.

"This thing, it seems to be the legendary poisonous insect, a killer insect," Wanshui Zhenren observed keenly, frowning.

"Ghost Vine Fellow Daoist, you have always been quite knowledgeable about these weird and peculiar things, do you know how to deal with these creatures?" Tian Sanqi suddenly asked.

Ghost Vine Master might indeed know about this creature, but Shen Luo had never heard of it.

"I have no interest in exploring such malicious things," he secretly cursed Tian Sanqi, controlling Ghost Vine Master to respond coldly.

Just as he finished speaking, a chilling "giggle" of laughter came from above, followed by those killer insects shrieking as they leapt down from the beams attacking them.

Seeing this, everyone quickly dodged.

One of the killer insects pounced towards Wanshui Zhenren first. Its single horn glinted with black light and suddenly shot a black poisonous spike towards him.

Wanshui Zhenren waved his sleeve, creating a spiral stream of water out of thin air, which wrapped around the black spike, spinning and dissipating its forward momentum.

However, following that, the water vortex completely turned pitch black and became extremely viscous, like sludge.

Wanshui Zhenren quickly withdrew his sleeve, causing the "sludge" to fall to the ground.

"Sssss"

White smoke rose from the ground as the hard stone floor was instantly corroded, forming a deep pit.

"Such potent poison," Wanshui Zhenren exclaimed in astonishment.

At this time, the others were also engaged in battle with those killer insects.

Yan Lie, possessed of Fire Attribute God’s Power, was fairly effective against these killer insects, so his attacks were especially fierce. Raising his hand, flames struck the killer insects.

Though enveloped by flames, the killer insects were unafraid, continuing to emit a sharp scream and charging at Yan Lie, with spikes constantly shooting from their horns.

Yan Lie continued to ward them off with his hands while observing that although the attacks of these creatures were not too strong, their poison was truly potent, and they had some resistance against his flames.

Just as he got slightly distracted, the figure of the Poisonous Insects shrouded in flames suddenly exploded with a "bang," transforming into a cloud of black smoke that rushed toward him.

Yan Lie was shocked and quickly retreated. Upon focusing, he saw that the black smoke densely packed with tiny insects, all the size of fireflies.

"So they can still transform like this."

As he marveled, those Poisonous Insects had already swiftly flown in front of him, instantly forming a human shape and viciously spewing something at him.

He saw a thick black mist erupting from its pitch-black mouth, hitting directly on Yan Lie’s facial armor.

Yan Lie cried out in agony and stepped back several paces.

Tian Sanqi and Wanshui Zhenren, hearing the scream, all looked over, only to have the Poisonous Insects in front of them seize the opportunity to fiercely attack them.

The divine ability to fragment and disperse left the two momentarily flustered.

Forced to retreat slightly, Yan Lie was quickly pursued by the Poisonous Insects, who aimed to completely annihilate him.

But just as they charged close, the already fallen Yan Lie suddenly turned back, actively pressing towards the Poisonous Insects, his face now adorned with a crimson fiery Mask.

As they got slightly closer, Yan Lie suddenly exhaled a burst of golden flames from his mouth, hitting the Poisonous Insects in the face.

"Ah..." The Poisonous Insects let out a scream like that of a baby.

This burst of golden flames, clearly different from the earlier Red Flames, seemed to inherently possess a strong adhesive quality, completely enveloping the Poisonous Insects.

The Poisonous Insects, roasted by the flames, were in extreme agony. They tried to disperse into countless tiny insects, but the flames forcibly restrained them, preventing them from separating.

Seeing this, Yan Lie waved his hand, and a Seven-Level Pagoda burning with Black Fire spontaneously appeared, falling upon the Poisonous Insects and absorbing it inside.

Soon, a crackling burning sound came from inside the Pagoda, plumes of black smoke billowed from the top of the pagoda, and the cries of the insects gradually faded until they completely disappeared.

"The Qiankun Xuanhuo Tower has indeed ended up in your hands," Tian Sanqi thought to himself upon seeing this scene.

After speaking, he grabbed the neck of a Poisonous Insects with one palm. Black Sword Qi burst forth in his palm, forming a small Sword Array Cage, enveloping it at the center.

The Poisonous Insects, trapped within, had already dispersed into countless tiny insects, but still couldn’t escape and were continuously sliced and slayed by numerous Sword Qis, eventually all turning into ash.

Among everyone, Ghost Teng Master, controlled by Shen Luo, was the most unoccupied, with no Poisonous Insects attacking him. He had no intention to help others and was taking this opportunity to closely observe everyone’s tactics.

After looking around, he soon realized that everyone was handling the situation effortlessly, and clearly, the Poisonous Insects posed no threat to them.

However, just then, a rustling sound started coming from all around. He subconsciously looked up, only to see nothing unusual in the sky.

But Shen Luo suddenly noticed that a section of the beam above seemed different, faintly reflecting a metallic gloss.

Previously, everyone’s vision had been continuously disturbed by the emerging insects, so no one had noticed.

Yet, before Shen Luo could take a closer look, the rustling sound suddenly grew louder.

Ghost Teng Master immediately looked down to the ground and saw countless black scorpions emerging from the hollow patterns, continuously climbing towards everyone.
