The stone that was originally protruding from the stone wall suddenly detached from the wall and landed on the ground with a flip.
Like a giant beetle, it was entirely black, almost blending into the stone walls. Having slept for tens of thousands of years, it had almost no aura left, so it was not easily discovered.
Those who didn't have time to get away from the stone wall instantly went limp and were eaten alive bit by bit by those large black worms. They eventually bled to death, their eyes still wide open with terror in them before they died.
Those who reacted quickly stared in horror, their robes instantly soaked with sweat, and even the hands holding their weapons trembled uncontrollably.
What the hell is this thing? Why would there be such a terrifying creature among the dragons?
Soon, those people were reduced to bones and blood.
At this moment, a dozen beetle beasts surrounded the group, their dark eyes staring at them menacingly. The two black horns on their heads emitted an eerie light, and they had several long whiskers on their sides. Their hard shells were covered with black lines, their limbs were strong and powerful, and their gaping maws revealed sharp teeth. Drops of saliva fell to the ground, causing it to hiss and corrode.
"Everyone be careful, this is a black-winged beetle. Its two horns emit a gas that makes people weak, and its saliva is poisonous. Be careful not to get sprayed with its saliva."
Hei Xiangling reminded her.
Upon hearing this, everyone quickly took out antidotes and swallowed them, preparing for battle.
The black-winged beetle before them was an ancient spirit insect that had survived. It was a formidable enemy for these spiritual cultivators, and they could not afford to be careless. A moment's carelessness could lead to their deaths beneath the beetle.
A dozen or so black-winged beetles spread their hard, black wings and, with earth-shattering power, swooped down on the crowd.
Everyone was extremely tense, but despite the tension, they had to use every trick in the book to survive.
"Sizzle sizzle sizzle—"
It was the piercing sound of a weapon slicing through a black-winged beetle.
"Don't attack its back and head, attack its eyes or abdomen!" Hei Xiangling reminded everyone.
Seven or eight spiritual cultivators were fighting against a black-winged beetle. Ji Jiuying, Hei Xiangling, Feng Che, Yin Han, Jiang Xin, Jiang Ling, Feng Qingxue, Tu Ba and one of his subordinates, nine people against one black-winged beetle, but the black-winged beetle was not at a disadvantage at all. Instead, they were exhausted in no time.
Ji Jiuying gripped the black night tightly in her hand, trying to take the opportunity to ambush the black-winged beetle, but it detected her every time. However, she was not surprised at all, after all, the black-winged beetle was an ancient insect beast that had survived, and its consciousness must be very strong.
Although the Black Night that Gong Mingyue sent was no ordinary item, her strength was such that even if she were given a chance, the Blackwing Beetle would probably not be seriously injured.
【Xiangling, find a chance to kill it later.】
At that moment, the black-winged beetle's wings suddenly spread open, and Ji Jiuying, Yin Han, and Tu Ba were instantly flung against the stone wall.
puff!
Despite being protected by Yin Han, Ji Jiuying still suffered considerable injuries. She felt dizzy and her throat was filled with a metallic taste.
【Girl!】
【Jiu'er!】
However, the black-winged beetle gave them no chance to breathe. Besides Hei Xiangling, Feng Qingxue, Jiang Xin, and Jiang Ling were also violently thrown aside.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, the black-winged beetle sprayed venom from its mouth at the group. The group was terrified and quickly dodged. The venom made a sizzling sound wherever it touched, and everyone felt a chill run down their spines.
Seeing that the group had dodged its venom, the black-winged beetle's eyes flashed with ferocity as it charged at Feng Qingxue and Jiang Xin again. Whoosh! A black light flashed past the beetle's eyes, nearly piercing them.
The darkness returned to Ji Jiuying's hands, a move that the black-winged beetle saw as a blatant provocation, instantly enraging it.
He turned around and suddenly rushed towards Ji Jiuying. An overwhelming force swept over her, and for the first time, Ji Jiuying felt the threat of death. Her heart seemed to stop beating, and her pupils continued to dilate.
"No!"
She moved so fast that no one had time to rush forward to save her. Just as Ji Jiuying was about to hide in the space...
Just at this critical moment, a golden light emanated from Ji Jiuying's wrist, forming an extremely hard protective shield. The black-winged beetle's dark eyes were filled with endless killing intent. It was unaware of the importance of the matter and completely disregarded the golden protective shield.
Bang!
A deafening roar shook the entire earth, and the black-winged beetles and spiritual cultivators who were still fighting were shocked by the scene before them.
The black-winged beetle crashed into the golden protective shield, and the force spread out in a circular pattern in all directions, blasting away both the black-winged beetle and the spiritual cultivators. This shows how terrifying and powerful the force was!
The black-winged beetle that attacked Ji Jiuying was visibly shattered into countless fragments. It was crushed in front of Ji Jiuying before it could even roar. Everyone was shocked by this scene. What kind of terrifying power was that that could instantly kill the black-winged beetle?
Feng Che, Yin Han, and Hei Xiangling breathed a sigh of relief; thankfully, she was alright.
Yin Han knew that the power just now came from the Phoenix Frost Bracelet. Although there were quite a few spiritual cultivators present, not many recognized the Phoenix Frost Bracelet, but it wasn't entirely unheard of.
Tu Ba narrowed his eyes and re-examined Ji Jiuying. If he wasn't mistaken, the boy in the hand just now was holding the Phoenix Frost Bracelet of the Nine Heavens Divine Palace. But wasn't the Phoenix Frost Bracelet meant for the mistress of the Nine Heavens Divine Palace? Why was it in the hands of a brat?
Who exactly is this kid? At this moment, a flash of inspiration struck him, and he remembered the rumors that had been circulating in the Heavenly Domain Continent for several years, saying that the one in the Nine Heavens Divine Palace seemed to be homosexual... Now it seems that this is not just a rumor!
Tu Ba's lips twitched slightly, as if he had discovered some great secret. No wonder Yin Han of the Nine Heavens Divine Palace was protecting him...
——
Nine Heavens Divine Palace, Nine Heavens Palace.
A man in a black robe reclined lazily on a soft couch. He was tall and slender, with exquisitely sculpted features. He was neither demonic nor monstrous, and was incredibly handsome, like a celestial being who had stepped out of a painting. His deep black eyes were like frost in winter, making people afraid to look directly at him.
Suddenly, Gong Mingyue's half-closed eyes flashed with a dangerous glint.
It's a Phoenix Frost Bracelet!
A sharp pain shot through him. Why couldn't he remember who he had given the Frost Bracelet to? Every time he thought about it, his head would ache.
A blurry figure would often flash through his mind, and when he thought about it, his head would throb with pain. Gong Mingyue narrowed his eyes in confusion. Who was that blurry figure?
He knew very well what the Frost Bracelet represented, but he couldn't understand why he would give it away, and whether that person was the same person as the blurry figure in his mind!
