C9 Advancing Successfully

As if to confirm the girl's thoughts, as the first foot-long centipede crawled out of the grass, countless centipedes of all sizes continuously appeared from all directions as if they had received guidance. They rapidly crawled towards Qing Ning, and even made hissing sounds as they changed their positions.

Qing Ning's body stiffened when she saw this scene. Following that, a hysterical scream resounded in the sky.

Gu Yuan, who was not far away, was speechless. The centipede that was dozens of meters long was not scared. What kind of logic was this?

However, now was not the time to study this issue. Seeing that countless centipedes were about to climb onto Qing Ning, and that Qing Ning was covering her face with her hands and stomping her feet non-stop, Gu Yuan sighed, picked up the Fangtian Halberd and rushed towards Qing Ning.

Just as a centipede was about to climb onto Qing Ning's body, Gu Yuan arrived in time. He grabbed Qing Ning by the waist with one hand and smashed the Fangtian Halberd in his hand onto the ground.

With a loud boom, a huge crater was created on the ground by Gu Yuan's tremendous force. Countless centipedes were instantly smashed or blown away. The place where Gu Yuan and Qing Ning were standing was cleared in an instant.

However, the next moment, more centipedes rushed forward.

Gu Yuan frowned as he thought to himself, "This is not the way out. Qing Feng Ridge is vast, and this is the home of that Multicolored Blood Centipede. I don't know how many centipedes there are. I'm afraid I won't be able to kill them all even if I tire myself to death."

Looking at the Multi Colored Blood Centipede that was constantly attracting the centipedes through its roars, Gu Yuan instantly came up with an idea.

It seemed that as long as he could kill this large centipede first, the other centipedes would naturally disperse.

Putting aside whether Gu Yuan, who was at the peak of the Postliminary Realm, could defeat the Innate Multi Colored Blood Centipede, Gu Yuan did challenge someone stronger than him previously. However, the prerequisite was that he had to do it at the same time, and the Multi Colored Blood Centipede in front of him was an Innate, even if it was just a level lower than the previous challenge.

Besides, he was holding a woman in his arms, which made Gu Yuan's movements even more restricted.

At this moment, Qing Ning was still screaming hysterically. It was obvious that the previous scene had provoked her quite a bit.

Gu Yuan called out a few times, but the other side didn't seem to hear him. They just kept screaming on their own, and the situation was getting worse and worse.

In the end, Gu Yuan could only sigh helplessly and said apologetically, "Sorry …"

After she finished speaking, she viciously slapped Qing Ning's face.

Pow!

The screams stopped abruptly as Gu Yuan's eyes lit up. He thought to himself, "This move is really good."

Qing Ning opened her eyes at this moment and looked at Gu Yuan angrily. "Who are you? Why did you hit me?"

Gu Yuan didn't say anything, but pointed around.

When Gu Yuan pointed and saw the densely packed centipedes that were getting closer to the ground, Qing Ning was so scared that she wanted to scream again, but Gu Yuan covered her mouth with his hand.

"Enough! "What time is it?!"

Gu Yuan's scolding seemed to have some effect. Qing Ning was shocked and instantly quieted down. However, her face was pale and she was obviously trying her best to remain calm.

There was no time to explain, Gu Yuan quickly said, "You are stronger than me, I will help you block these centipedes. You go cut the big one into serious injuries and stop it from continuing to summon these centipedes."

Hearing Gu Yuan's words, Qing Ning's eyes lit up. She quickly nodded and agreed. and instead cut into serious injuries? "

Gu Yuan was stunned when he heard that. Was he going to tell her that he had advanced into the Xiantian realm to complete his mission?

Of course not.

In the end, he could only say, "Why are you asking so many questions? If I tell you to go, then go."

"If you're going, then go. Why are you being so fierce?" Seeing Gu Yuan's vile attitude, Qing Ning's small mouth curled into a pout. However, she did not retort and instead brandished her sword to attack the Multi Colored Blood Centipede.

Qing Ning hated this dead centipede to death now. She had been bitten by multiple feet poisonous bugs when she was very young and had almost failed to save her. After that, she didn't know if she was born messing with these bugs with many legs and got poisoned a few times.

Who would have thought that after travelling with his master in the Zhongzhou Prefecture and being ordered to search for Snow Congealing Grass, he would almost be bitten by the insect he hated the most again in a small place like Qing Feng Ridge!

Qing Ning said: "This fairy is very angry, the consequences are really very serious!"

Gu Yuan continuously attacked the endless stream of centipedes. Suddenly, he heard an angry shout from behind him. Following that, countless sword lights instantly submerged the Multi Colored Blood Centipedes.

"This girl... This is too violent! " Even after the constant killing in January, Gu Yuan still felt a burst of fear.

Seeing that the Multi Colored Blood Centipede was broken into several pieces, Qing Ning did not stop. Obviously, she forgot Gu Yuan's previous words.

Fortunately, when the Multi Colored Blood Centipede was heavily injured, the centipedes quickly dispersed. Gu Yuan hastily rushed forward and took advantage of Qing Ning raising her sword to smash the halberd on the Multi Colored Blood Centipede's head.

Gu Yuan finally felt relieved when he heard the System Notice that came to his ears as per his wish.

"Congratulations to the host for successfully killing the Early Period of Innate Stage 'Multi Colored Blood Centipede'. The mission is completed, and you have advanced successfully!"

Along with the system notification, Gu Yuan's inner force, which was originally calm, seemed to be triggered by something. Suddenly, it started to churn violently as it circulated rapidly in Gu Yuan's body.

Seeing that his Jing and Mai were about to suffer from the damage, Gu Yuan's face turned red because of the pain. All of his internal energy rushed into his Dantian crazily and was wrapped by a mighty force that suddenly appeared, squeezed and compressed.

A few breaths later, all of the power and inner force that had been inside his dantian disappeared, leaving only a drop of crystal clear liquid.

The scary process scared Gu Yuan to the point that he broke out in a cold sweat. He was afraid that this breakthrough would be like the last time he repaired his meridians, right?

Qing Ning, who was at the side, saw that the Multi Colored Blood Centipede had actually been killed by a strange man. She was about to reprimand him angrily, but then she saw that this strange man's aura had been thrown into disorder after killing the Multi Colored Blood Centipede.

However, in the blink of an eye, the strange man returned to normal and his aura rose sharply. He had reached Foundation Establishment. Qing Ning, who was at the side, was startled and looked at him curiously.

Slowly opening his eyes and exhaling a mouthful of impure air, Gu Yuan's mood finally relaxed. The first thing he saw was Qing Ning, who was sizing him up.

It was Gu Yuan's first time being looked at by such a beautiful woman. He touched his nose awkwardly and said, "Is there something wrong with me?"

Qing Ning asked uncertainly, "Did you just achieve a breakthrough?"

Gu Yuan nodded and said, "Yes, why?"
