The good news is that they have walked a long distance, but so far, Zhou Qing and his friends have not encountered any illusions that they cannot see through.

Those traps that devoured the body and absorbed the soul were avoided because of their caution.

But there is also bad news.

They had actually walked a long way since entering the door, but the passage still hadn't reached the end, and there was no sign of an end.

"This tomb is really weird." Zhou Qing sighed.

"Ning Wan, you have more experience. Have you ever had such an experience before?"

"Or can you tell what level of a strong man the owner of this tomb was in his lifetime?"

Ning Wan shook her head. "Although I have seen many things, this is my first time entering a tomb of the dead."

"If this wasn't a mission from headquarters, I definitely wouldn't have come."

“Wow!”

At this moment, a sound like flowing water suddenly came from the front, which made Zhou Qing and the others immediately become serious. They stood still and looked ahead.

Then they saw dense black water flowing towards them at a very fast speed.

But after a closer look, Zhou Qing's expression changed. This was not a stream of water, but...

Sea of ​​insects!

That’s right, what were swarming towards them were all black bugs, as big as an adult’s fist, so densely packed that there seemed to be no limit to their number, seemingly endless.

It makes my scalp tingle and even makes me suffer from trypophobia.

"What is this, a corpse worm?"

Zhou Qing swung his sword, and the sword energy swept across, instantly splashing black blood and directly killing many insects.

Judging from the individual force, the corpse of this insect is not strong.

But there were too many of them. The insects killed by Zhou Qing's sword were immediately covered by the ones behind them, and he vaguely saw that the dead insect corpses were not eaten.

"There are many insects that thrive best in cemeteries, and this one is probably one of them."

Ning Wan's face was solemn. The swarm of insects tactics was very scary. If it was an endless swarm of insects, it would be even scarier.

While speaking, Zhou Qing had already released the Yang Fire.

The yang fire turned into a fire dragon, roaring directly forward, and then there were continuous crisp sounds, as if the insects were being roasted directly.

The yang fire burned fiercely without being extinguished, and corpse worms continued to die in the thousands.

But apart from the crackling sound, the sound of insects crawling was still obvious and did not stop.

Death could not scare these insects, and they still kept rushing towards Zhou Qing and his team.

"call!"

Suddenly, a strong wind blew, and Ning Wan's soul power surged out, and a small storm appeared and blew forward.

The wind fueled the fire, making Zhou Qing's yang fire more violent and vigorous, and covering a larger area.

At this moment, an extremely foul smell came from the front.

Zhou Qing frowned slightly, "These corpse worms didn't even leave the corpse behind, and they attacked with smell."

"There are some troubles." Ning Wan said:

"If the insect swarm lasts too long, it will cost us a lot of money, and we may not be able to deal with it anymore."

As she spoke, Ning Wan took out two jade bottles from the space bracelet and handed them to Zhou Qing.

She explained, "Red pills can be used to restore true energy, and green pills can be used to restore soul power."

"We must be prepared that this insect swarm will not end any time soon."

Ning Wan’s guess was correct. This endless tide of insects did not end in a short period of time.

Both of their faces were pale and their eyes were dim.

Maintaining a large-scale, indiscriminate attack for a long time would consume too much energy.

In the process of intercepting the insect tide, Zhou Qing and his companions did think of other ways.

For example, they tried to go back and retreat to the location of the previous ground mechanism trap, trying to use the pit below to deal with the insect tide.

But these corpse worms actually chose to pass through the walls on both sides and avoided the mechanism pit.

There is no way out but to destroy the insect swarm head-on.

“Boom boom boom!”

Suddenly, a rumbling sound was heard from the other side of the passage, and then even larger corpse worms appeared.

The corpse worm just now was the size of an adult's fist, but the one that appeared now was as big as an adult elephant!

If the two did not look exactly the same, Zhou Qing would not have thought they were the same creature.

Like elephants, can they still be called insects? One after another, the "elephants" crawled rapidly in the passage, rushing towards Zhou Qing and his group, and the air was filled with corpse gas, making people feel very uncomfortable.

"These big guys are quite powerful." Zhou Qing said solemnly:

"It's not like those little bugs just now, which can be easily dealt with."

The only good news is that after the "elephant" came out, the little bugs disappeared.

"Just go ahead and kill them!"

Ning Wan did not hesitate. She held the long sword, which was also a top-grade Yuanwu weapon, and leaped forward.

Zhou Qing immediately followed with dense sword energy. At the same time, the two of them also used various Taoist techniques to assist in the battle.

The two men chopped and killed the elephant-sized insects one by one. Both of them had Taoist magic to protect themselves, which allowed them to defend themselves while avoiding being splashed by the insects' blood.

Fighting all the way, Zhou Qing and his men managed to advance a long way under the attack of the giant insects, until they saw a light in the distance that was completely different from the light in this passage.

This cheered up the two of them.

"Is that the exit?"

"Just kill them and you'll know!"

“Swish!”

The giant insect's head fell to the ground, and black blood splattered all over the passage, adding a sense of evil.

It is certain that Ning Wan’s physical martial arts has reached the Bone Refining Realm.

"call!"

The two men's breathing became faster. Looking back, they saw that the corridor behind them was filled with corpses of corpse worms.

The black blood had gathered into a stream, winding back the way they came.

"Luckily we didn't separate."

Ning Wan was now somewhat glad about the decision she made outside the three stone gates.

Based on everything they experienced after entering the stone gate, if the two of them acted separately, it would be much more difficult to get here smoothly, and it would take much more time, which would be too dangerous.

However, if a person were to face this swarm of insects, he or she might be dragged to exhaustion by them.

It would be very dangerous if you ran out of strength in such a dangerous place.

Please...collect 6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//bar)

"Do you want the corpses of these insects?" Zhou Qing asked, "If you want, I can help you collect them."

“…”

Ning Wan's chest heaved and she was speechless.

She is not a rag collector!

"Thank you, but no, these bodies are of no value."

Zhou Qing nodded, and the two of them slowly walked out of the passage. What appeared in front of them was a big pit, which was very deep.

Taking the current position of the two of them as the starting point, there are two suspended roads attached to the walls on both sides of the pit, one on the left and one on the right.

At the end of these two roads are two stone gates.

However, no other cave entrances were seen on these two roads, which means that the other two of the three stone doors they encountered last time probably did not lead to here, but should lead to other places.

"This is a bug nest."

Ning Wan murmured, her eyes falling on the big pit below.

I saw layer upon layer of densely packed insect eggs on the big pit. They were very small, only the size of a thumb.

The eggs are slightly transparent and it is very bright here, so with our eyesight we can see what the creature inside the eggs looks like.

They were the larvae of the insects they had just encountered.

"What a big deal." Zhou Qing whispered, "If all these eggs hatch, we will most likely be forced out."

Because the pit was filled with insect eggs, they couldn't tell how deep the pit was.

But combined with the experience just now, it must be a very large scale.

Under the gaze of the two men, some insect eggs had just hatched, and then something horrifying happened.

The newly hatched young corpse worms will directly fight with other young corpse worms, and the winner will directly devour the other's corpse.

It is hard to imagine how many of its own kind it has to devour in this process as it grows from a thumb-sized larva to a fist-sized adult, or even an elephant-sized mutant.

In the underground tomb where there is no food, fellow tribesmen are the food.

"Zhou Qing, I want to take these insect eggs away." Ning Wan said.

Zhou Qing secretly admired her, she was worthy of being the favored daughter of Wanxing Chamber of Commerce, she could remain calm in the face of such uncomfortable and disgusting things, and still think about their value.

Fortunately, Zhou Qing is now a cultivator. He has undergone many transformations both physically and mentally. He is able to overcome many instincts and no longer has any special feelings when facing these insect eggs.

Otherwise, if a mortal saw the scene here and was asked to collect insect eggs, he would probably be driven crazy.

However, these insect eggs are indeed valuable.

Controlling insects is also a relatively powerful field among cultivators, provided that one can find sufficiently ferocious insects.

The way to control insects is basically to use the insect sea tactics.

Zhou Qing asked: "There are too many eggs. Can your space device hold them all?"

Ning Wan said: "It's okay to take some away."

"Then let's go together."

"Thank you for your help."

Ning Wan handed Zhou Qing a space bag that was somewhat unique.

"An insect bag, specially used to hold spirit beasts and spirit insects."

A normal space bag cannot hold living things like spirit beasts and insects. It can be seen that she was well prepared.

I guess I had the idea of ​​coming here to shop from the beginning.

On the left and right sides of the big pit, there are two stone steps leading down to the pit, where Zhou Qing and his friends can go to collect the eggs.

The two men separated and each went to a stone staircase, but they had just collected the insect eggs when changes occurred here again.

A large number of insect eggs actually moved and gathered together, and then those insect eggs actually combined together, and the appearance was the appearance of this kind of corpse worm after hatching, and it was very large, about the size of a bus in Zhou Qing's previous life! This shocked the two people, what kind of operation is this? !

Then the giant insect egg beast pounced directly at Ning Wan.

Zhou Qing immediately pulled himself away from the deep pit, then ran towards Ning Wan along the road along the wall.

The breath of this giant insect egg beast is very strange and chaotic, but its power...

Marrow Cleansing Realm! "Bang!"

The giant insect egg beast hit Ning Wan, and she flew out directly, using the wall behind her to stop her retreat.

The sword whistled, and Zhou Qing launched an attack directly, shouting at the same time:

"Are you okay?!"

Ning Wan shook her head, saying there was nothing wrong, but her eyes were a little cold.

"Let's solve this together!"

The giant insect egg beast took Zhou Qing's sword and some of the eggs on its body exploded, but what was shocking was that some of the eggs in the pit immediately climbed up and made up for its loss.

This shocked Zhou Qing and the others. What on earth is this? (End of this chapter)
