The sea water was turbid, and Chu Hong carried Zhong Shan on her back and hid behind a big rock.
The big crab made so much noise that it attracted several nearby shrimps, making the already weak situation even worse.
BANG!!
The hidden boulder exploded, and a figure dragging a coral reef walked out from behind. The dark scales on the other person's body were like a soldier's iron armor, emitting a cold light.
"It's Mr. Shrimp who was standing outside earlier."
Chu Hong quickly dodged the attack and fled away. She had fought with Master Xia many times during this period, and she had roughly figured out the attack methods of these monsters.
boom!
Smoke and dust exploded, and the crab general in the middle began to resist violently as if he had encountered a strong enemy. His movements came and went quickly. The violent impact caused the nearby water flow to vibrate violently. Chu Hong didn't dare to look, and she tried her best to restrain her breath.
For humans, the monsters in the sea are too powerful, and any one of them is enough to take their lives.
"Senior sister, stop hiding, let's go back together."
Chu Hong heard a familiar voice.
Looks like her junior fellow apprentice Dong Ping, but...how is this possible?
How could she not know Dong Ping's strength?
Chu Hong carefully stretched out a finger, and the lava Gu's larvae attached to it helped her take a look.
The muddy water dispersed, and the Crab General who drove the fish school away disappeared. A young man who looked exactly like her junior brother Dong Ping stood in the center of the transmission node, and there were two people beside him. They were the skinny Gu Master who had escaped separately from Chu Hong.
Next to these two people, Chu Hong also saw Shang Meng who was already dead.
She saw with her own eyes that Shang Meng was captured by Prime Minister Gui.
No one can survive if they fall into the hands of a monster of that level, so the people in front of me must be fake.
"What kind of monster is this?"
Chu Hong hid in the dark and did not move. She did not believe what these three people said, especially the young man who called her Senior Sister. Although Dong Ping had given him a little shock when he switched to the Insect Sutra, it was only talent, and it would take a long time to transform it into strength.
Chen Luo waited for a moment and saw no movement.
He took a step forward, and appeared beside Chu Hong as if he had teleported, and took the Zhongshan from her hand. Without any movement, the spiritual power in his hand penetrated into her palm, and after circulating a circle, it quickly dissipated.
Zhong Shan, who was seriously injured and dying, opened his eyes in confusion, and he subconsciously looked up at Chen Luo.
"Fourth Junior Brother?!"
Zhong Shan raised his hands, not understanding what happened for a moment. Chu Hong beside him was also dumbfounded. She knew Zhong Shan's injuries better than anyone else. In her opinion, even if Zhong Shan could escape this time, he would become a useless person for the rest of his life. Just like Bi Shi, the Gu Master of Junior Sister Qi Chan, he could no longer drive the Gu insects. But this 'Dong Ping' in front of him used some unknown means to heal Zhong Shan's injuries with just a light pat, and even his aura was strengthened.
"Are you really Junior Brother Dong?"
There was some doubt in Chu Hong's eyes, and suddenly a huge shadow flew over from the side.
boom!!
The huge coral reef swept over like a mountain, creating a vacuum in the nearby water flow.
"Be careful! It's Mr. Shrimp."
The skinny Gu Master and Shang Meng who followed Chen Luo looked strange, but neither of them escaped. This change in details made Chu Hong's heart sink.
"These people are indeed fake. I must find a way to rescue my second apprentice brother."
"Don't worry, Senior Sister. I have already mastered the Insect Sutra."
Chen Luo turned around and saw him waving his sleeves.
A huge black monster appeared out of nowhere. This monster looked like a poisonous insect, with eight thin sickle-like legs. The insect armor on its back was like a magic weapon, emitting a dark color.
clang!!
With a loud bang, the coral reef hit the black monster and shattered into pieces on the spot. The black monster was furious on the spot. A faint light flashed and the strange shadow disappeared. A crescent-shaped knife light bloomed in the water, and the "Shrimp Master" who threw the coral reef in the distance was chopped into seventeen or eighteen pieces on the spot. The scattered body parts were swallowed by the black monster with a big mouth.
"Look, this is the corpse-controlling Gu that you gave me, Senior Sister."
Chen Luo pointed at a black monster the size of a hill in the distance and explained sincerely.
"You said this thing is a corpse-controlling insect?!"
Chu Hong finally couldn't help but speak, her mind was confused. She had just quietly used the Insect Sutra to confirm that the person in front of her was indeed using the Insect Sutra, and the monster in the distance was also the corpse-controlling Gu she sent out.
Everything is fine.
It seems like there's a section in the middle that doesn't match.
Chu Hong subconsciously recalled the scene of giving the insect eggs to her junior brother not long ago. The thumb-sized black insect eggs formed a sharp contrast with the black monster in front of her. They were not the same thing no matter how you looked at them. Even the old man was just a small shrimp in front of it.
The most important thing is that this corpse-controlling Gu did not control the corpse from beginning to end!
"This was given to me by you, Senior Sister."
"How did it get so big?"
"It just ate a little too much. After all, it was the Gu worm you gave me, so I couldn't let it starve."
Chu Hong didn't want to talk anymore, and Zhong Shan next to her also came back to his senses.
The two looked at Chen Luo with strange eyes, always feeling that something was wrong with the development of the situation.
"cough!"
Zhong Shan coughed.
"Anyway, Fourth Junior Brother helped us kill a Shrimp Master. With this skin, we now have four monster skins. We will be much more confident in facing the tide." Zhong Shan did not mention Chen Luo. In his opinion, Fourth Junior Brother must have had an adventure.
Maybe he really gained something from his last retreat.
"What realm are you in now?"
Chu Honghai couldn't believe it. In her impression, the fourth junior brother Dong Ping had average talent but a very high spirit. She had survived all these years thanks to the protection of him and Zhong Shan. Not long ago, this junior brother even shouted that he wanted to remove the Tongxin Gu, which made her worried for a long time.
As a result, after coming out of seclusion, he was like a different person. First, he changed to study the Insect Sutra, and then
The corpse-controlling insect was raised like this.
Looking at the dark mountain in front of her that was eating Mr. Shrimp, Chu Hong felt numb for a moment, and suddenly felt that her lava Gu seemed to be just that useful.
"According to the description in the Insect Classic, he should be considered the Gu King."
Chen Luo responded casually.
If it wasn't for dealing with the polluted spiritual power in the third restricted area, Chen Luo would not bother to learn this so-called insect scripture. A fourth-level technique, when practiced to the limit, is only the Nascent Soul Realm. Not even the Spiritualization Realm, no wonder he was chased and killed by several prawns in the sea.
"The Gu King?!"
“No wonder!!”
The two people who had been following Chen Luo showed a look of realization in their eyes. In Chen Luo's eyes, the Gu King realm was a weakling, but in the eyes of these Gu Masters, that was the strongest in their Gu Master lineage, the realm they dreamed of.
"Even if it's the Gu King"
Zhong Shan looked at the corpse-controlling Gu feasting not far away, and stopped talking halfway. He had never reached the Gu King Realm, so he couldn't comment on the details. Maybe the requirement to break through the Gu King Realm is the Gu worm mutation. Although the corpse-controlling Gu in front of him looked a little "burly", from the outline, it was indeed a corpse-controlling Gu.
"Let's go back first and deal with the tide before we talk about the rest."
Led by Chen Luo, the group returned to the previous teleportation point. The place where General Crab had crawled out before had become a big pit, with a few crab legs left in it that had been gnawed by the corpse-controlling insect.
"The Crab General was also eaten?"
Chu Hong couldn't help but go over and pick up a crab leg. After confirming that it was General Crab's claw, she felt like she was dreaming.
"start."
In the center of the formation, the skinny Gu Master called back his companions.
The group successfully activated the formation and returned to land.
Everyone felt as if they were in another world when they breathed the air outside again. Chu Hong looked at Chen Luo beside her and opened her mouth several times but didn't know what to say. The same was true for the second senior brother Zhong Shan. He was injured too badly before, and a lot of the black scales on Zhong Shan's body fell off, revealing his original appearance underneath the scales.
"I cannot repay you for saving my life. If you need me to do anything in the future, I will be willing to serve you."
Shang Meng and the two Gu Masters who had escaped death bowed to thank Chen Luo. If they hadn't met Chen Luo this time, the three of them would definitely not have been able to come back. So the three of them were very respectful to Chen Luo and directly put themselves at the level of the younger generation.
"Let's all go back. The tide is coming soon. You should recover first."
Chen Luo found a big rock on the edge of the cliff and sat down. He planned to block the door here.
The main purpose of coming back this time was to guard the teleportation point on land. When the tide ended, he would go to the Dragon Palace. No matter if it was the tomb of the third restricted area, he would go and dig it. If he succeeded, he would get a top-level brain. If he failed, he would abandon this flesh and blood clone and leave this place.
I've been here for so long, it's time to go back.
Outside, the world of immortal cultivation was undercurrents, and the opportunity to become an immortal could come at any time. There were also Kuishan, Gexian, the Nine Tomb Guarding Clans, and so on. These people were secretly planning their own affairs, which gave Chen Luo a sense of urgency.
This time when he returned he planned to go into seclusion.
With the addition of so many new external brains, subsequent breakthroughs must also be put on the agenda.
It would be best to reach the Tribulation Realm in one go!
"Then let's go back first, and you should be careful."
Chu Hong spoke, and Zhong Shan beside her also stood up and prepared to say goodbye.
boom!!
Before the five people could leave, they felt the seawall beneath their feet shake, and huge cracks appeared on the cliff. The cracks spread rapidly like a long snake, and a large amount of rubble fell down. The originally intact cliff turned into a platform covered with cracks in the blink of an eye, and it would shatter at the slightest touch.
"It's the tide?!"
“Why is it so early?”
The five people's faces changed drastically, and the next moment, a huge clamp stretched out from behind the teleportation point, and a large amount of sea water seeped out from it.
"Haha, I'm the first one."
Snap!!
The corpse-controlling insect leaped into the air, its huge mouth opened and closed, and only a crisp sound was heard. The extended pliers and the infiltrated seawater were all swallowed by the corpse-controlling insect. (End of this chapter)
