C252 Five Elemental Worm

"The energy in the barrier is diminishing. What kind of insect is this? It even ate the barrier!" Lei Tong carefully observed the densely packed insects. The mouthparts slid on his sister's body, and as they slid. . . There was always a trace of weak energy being extracted. Although the strength of a small bug was limited, the energy extracted could be ignored. However, how could there be more than a million of them covering the barrier? With so many small insects working together, in just a few breaths' time, Lei Tong's barrier was already on the verge of collapse. More and more cracks appeared on it. It seemed like it would collapse at any moment.

"Damn it, I have really underestimated you disgusting little things. " Lei Tong frowned. He waved his hand and released another barrier. At the same time, he threw a dozen fireballs outside the barrier and formed a simple formation. The flames rose and wrapped around the barrier.

"I'll let you suck it, and burn you to death. . . Uh. . . " Lei Tong's smile was halfway through his mouth when he suddenly stopped. The bugs that were lunging at the barrier suddenly charged into the flames. The bugs that were flying in the distance were like sharks that had seen blood as they charged into the flames.

"What's going on? Moths to the flame?" "The sound of wings flapping could be heard from the fire. Lei Tong widened his eyes and looked at the little bug in disbelief. The little bug that had rushed into the fire was like a fish that had jumped into the water, rolling and dancing happily. Soon, they hugged each other.

"Eh, they are. . . Carrying on the fire?" Lei Tong looked at them in shock. Suddenly, his whole body quivered and a string of messages appeared in his mind.

"Fire Spirit Bugs, a fire spirit, born from fire, living with fire, evolving with fire, wood counters wood. Fire Spirit Bug, a fire spirit, born from fire, evolved from fire, wood counters wood. "

"Wood counters wood? Didn't wood start a fire? How can it restrain these bugs? " Lei Tong didn't understand, but at this moment, he didn't seem to be allowed to think too much. Those insects had already absorbed the flames, and after that, the sky was filled with dust and mist.

"The insects are growing so quickly? This is too fast!" Lei Tong was speechless. He formed a seal with both hands, and the seal in his hands changed. A layer of pale green light surrounded him.

"The little bug seemed to have suddenly lost its target. It flew around like a headless fly, and after a moment of chaos, it landed on the tree, and then slowly seeped into the leaves and trees, leaving only countless red spots on the leaves and trees.

"It melted in? These bugs are really strange. " Lei Tong often let out a breath and paused for a moment. He only continued to move forward when he found that the bugs were gone.

After about one-fifth of the journey, Sha Sha's voice suddenly came from the surrounding ground. Lei Tong's expression changed. He hurriedly threw a layer of light green energy barrier over himself. However, after a while, the sound of 'Sha Sha' did not disappear. Instead, it got closer and closer.

"It's not Little Worm?" Lei Tong unleashed his Divine Sense, but it was blocked by an invisible force. He could only release his Divine Sense less than 30 meters away from his body.

The sound was getting more and more intense, getting closer and closer. Finally, Lei Tong could clearly see what was gathering towards him. It was a palm sized, earthen yellow scorpion. Each of them had their tails raised high, and they were like arrogant warriors, rushing over.

"Scorpions, earthen yellow, these are earth scorpions. They are big, strong, and have strong defense. The only weakness is that their poison is slightly weaker, but even if they are weak, it's still too terrifying to have so many of them. "

"Damn it, this path definitely isn't the path that leads to the Five Elements Old Ghost's hiding place. Otherwise, how could Chen Zaihang possibly pass through?" Lei Tong knitted his brows, not knowing if he should continue advancing or retreat. Lei Tong thought more and had already made some guesses.

He had just experienced the Fire Spirit Bugs, and now he had encountered the Earth Scorpion. This was one fifth of the canyon. Did this mean that if he took another one-fifth of the path, there would be poisonous insects of another element waiting for him?

Lei Tong knew he couldn't back down, so he didn't hesitate at all.

With a wave of his hand, the void trembled, and numerous ice needles appeared out of thin air. It was extremely similar to the day when he was transcending his tribulation.

"Go!" Lei Tong shouted softly. The ice needles shot out like a storm. All the Earth Scorpions that got close were nailed to the ground. The extreme cold on the ice needles instantly froze the Earth Scorpions into ice sculptures.

"Charge!" Lei Tong did not stop. He sped up and shot out the ice needles. From afar, it looked like a glittering prickly ball. All the nearby scorpions were nailed to death.

These scorpions were originally just ordinary earth scorpions. Even though the heaven and earth had changed, they hadn't evolved to the level of Demonic Beast. Therefore, it wasn't difficult to deal with them. Comparatively speaking, Lei Tong felt that the Fire Spirit Bugs were harder to deal with.

As they walked, they walked for another fifth of the way. The Earth Scorpions gradually decreased and finally disappeared. Lei Tong knew that they would probably enter another territory in front of them. Lei Tong did not dare to be careless. He used his flying sword to dig a stone cave on the cliff and used four of them to block the cave entrance before sitting down cross-legged and adjusting his breathing.

Although the density of the spiritual energy in Shennongjia was not much different from the outside world, there seemed to be a type of activity within it. Living was called life. What a magical place. It was just that no one knew if it was man-made or natural.

After 36 cycles, Lei Tong was full of energy. He even felt that his cultivation base had increased a little, reaching the peak of 14 cycles.

Counting the time, a day had passed. Lei Tong knew that he could not delay any longer. Who knew if there were any other paths. If the Five Elements old ghost found the Five Elements Spirit Root female cultivator, it would be too late to regret.

Lei Tong arrived at the canyon again. The Purple Bright Sword under his feet turned into a ray of light and flew towards the canyon.

"Buzz buzz buzz. "

"Why does it sound so similar to the Fire Spirit Bug?" Lei Tong raised his head and took a look. The sky was filled with colorful flying insects. Some were big, some were small, some were green, some were black and white, and they were all mosquitoes. There were all kinds of mosquitoes, and they covered the sky and covered the earth, filling the entire canyon.

All the mosquitoes had mouthparts that were twice as long as their bodies. It was as if they could instantly devour the blood in a person's body.

The mouthparts of these mosquitoes were somewhat different from those of the Fire Spirit Bugs. They seemed to be even sharper. The Fire Spirit Bug's mouthparts were also very long compared to its body, but the tip was indeed relatively flat. It was a bit like a megaphone, and it paid more attention to sucking. The mosquito's mouthpart fleet was sharper and sharper, and could easily pierce through any creature's skin and defense.

"It seems like these mosquitoes are water type insects, these mouthparts should have the ability to break through defense"

With the experience from the previous two battles, Lei Tong was able to react very quickly. He waved his hand and threw out a large flame. The flame surrounded him and then rushed towards the large swarm of mosquitoes. With a series of pipa sounds, the mosquitoes were burned to ashes by the flames. The air was filled with the smell of burnt flesh.

"So this is all. . . " Lei Tong laughed lightly and continued forward. However, after taking a few steps, he suddenly found that his body was somewhat numb, sluggish, and seemed to have lost consciousness.

"Not good. After the mosquito burned, the neuroanaesthetic toxin in his body evaporated into the air and was absorbed by me. " Lei Tong's expression was a little ugly. He didn't expect to find trouble for himself after dying.

Helpless, Lei Tong could only slow down his speed. At the same time, fire energy covered his entire body and quickly refined and absorbed the toxin in his body. The wood energy circulated throughout his entire body for a long time before it slowly returned to normal.

"What a terrifying poison. If there is an enemy attacking us now. . . "
