Chapter 174 Earth Fire Pupa Emperor
A large number of rune marks lit up around the tower.
An extremely solid light curtain fell, covering the entire tower, protecting it without any flaws.
Inside the light shield, a group of disciples stared coldly at a group of extremely dangerous dragonflies gathered outside the light shield.
In the distance, there were some other groups of earth beasts like cracked insects, gathering here.
Outside the tower was a carefully arranged fourth-level formation, the Desolate Cauldron Formation.
Its characteristic is its solid defense ability. As long as the energy is not exhausted, even if a Xiantian Realm warrior stands outside and fights for a day and a night, he will not be penetrated.
In terms of defense ability, it can be ranked in the top five among the series of fourth-level formations developed by Wu Zong.
The dragonflies kept trying to break through this rune formation, but they never broke through, and they were anxious.
In fact, even if an emperor-level earth beast came, it would not be able to break through this Desolate Cauldron Formation in a short time.
"We can only wait for the elders of the sect to come." Bai Hao sighed, feeling ashamed.
In this situation, it was beyond their ability.
Even if they wanted to go out and kill, they dared not close the Desolate Cauldron Formation.
Once the Ci Li Gate connected to the Wu Sect was in trouble, the situation would be very different.
Another half day passed, and more earth beasts had gathered outside the tower.
Split worms, dragonfly worms, red beetles, green tapir worms, millipede worms...
All kinds of things, all came here because of the smell.
All the disciples gathered together, their innate bodies were so fragrant...
As time went by, one by one, the emperor-level earth beasts followed, and they were very conspicuous in the pile of insects.
The green eyes stared at the crowd, not blinking.
Zhang Ruo's face was not very good. She witnessed with her own eyes that one of the emperor-level earth beasts ate her two junior sisters.
The wailing before death made her feel uneasy until now.
"Damn it!"
Just at this moment, the magnetic gate in the tower finally made a move.
A group of people appeared under the floating light.
There were elders teaching in the outer sect, and more elite disciples in the inner sect.
And there were several real people leading the way!
Xiao Wuji and other deacons stationed here finally breathed a sigh of relief when they saw such a scene.
The big guys finally came, and they hurried up to pay their respects.
"Where is my disciple!" Immortal Zizhu asked immediately after he appeared, with a serious look.
Xiao Wuji's face was stern, and he immediately replied: "Junior sister Miaotong is recovering from her injuries on the upper floor of the tower. She is no longer in danger of death, but she has been poisoned by the emperor-level split worm and has not woken up yet."
"Take me there." Immortal Zizhu interrupted directly.
Anyone can see that he cares a lot about his personal disciple.
If Miaotong encounters an accident this time, God knows what kind of anger this old man will burst out.
"Then let's go outside to see the situation first. This time the situation is special. Who knows what changes may have occurred under the cave." said Han Yang Zhenren.
Several Zhenren nodded and walked out of the tower.
On the second floor of the tower, Miao Tong was lying on the bed, her face was pale and her breath was weak. Although she received timely treatment, she was still unconscious.
Zhenren Han Yang only took a look, and then his frown loosened, and he took out a small purple-patterned medicine box and opened it.
A small green pill was sealed inside.
The moment the pill appeared, the whole floor of the tower was surrounded by a strange fragrance, which was very pleasant.
Zhenren Zizhu wrapped the pill with his true energy and gently put it into Miao Tong's mouth.
The pill melted in her mouth, and the wood energy enveloped Miao Tong, quickly dispelling the deposited toxins and healing her injuries.
On her delicate face, the blood color was visibly restored.
Then Zizhu Zhenren pointed his finger at Miaotong's forehead.
Miaotong quickly regained consciousness and opened her eyes.
"Master."
"Disciple, do you feel better?" Zizhu Zhenren asked.
"Thank you, Master, I feel much better." Miaotong stood up and said.
Once the toxins in her body were cleared, her injuries were no longer a concern.
Suddenly she thought of something and asked immediately: "Master, have you seen Junior Brother Wang Yu come back?"
"Hmm?" Zizhu Zhenren only received the message that Miaotong was seriously injured, and there was no news about Wang Yu.
Now when he heard Miaotong's question, he frowned again, "Why, isn't he with you?"
Miaotong shook her head and said with some self-blame: "At that time, Junior Brother was practicing in Lei Ze. When the cave was lost, I was knocked unconscious and failed to notify Junior Brother Wang Yu."
At this point, she immediately took out the message-transmitting bamboo.
Wang Yu's message was still there, and she replied immediately, but did not receive a follow-up response.
At this time, Wang Yu had no time to care about Xin Zhu's message. He was being stared at by an emperor-level earth beast.
It was huge in appearance, shaped like a silkworm pupa, and was red all over, burning with flames.
It came out from the ground, with a huge body. Under the bright red shell, there were countless legs, and there were three rows of eyeballs on its back, which kept rolling.
Because of its appearance, the barren mountains seemed to have turned into a mountain of fire.
"Such a rich amount of blood, far beyond ordinary earth beasts, and this flame..." Wang Yu encountered the emperor-level earth beast for the first time, and felt that it was much stronger than the previous crack worm king and dragonfly worm.
The spreading flames reminded him of the octopus spirit creature subdued by the old man Baihe.
In comparison, the threat brought to him by the earth fire pupa emperor in front of him was obviously greater.
"Is this a real-level earth beast?" Wang Yu was not sure.
I just felt that even if it was not a real-level earth beast, it was almost the same.
He could not accurately determine the strength of this earth beast, and felt that he was cheated.
What about the agreement that there would be no real-level earth beast?
This slap in the face came too quickly.
Wang Yu didn't want to pay attention to this earth fire pupa emperor, and directly pulled it up and flew away.
However, the earth fire pupa emperor trembled all over, and a large number of flaming moths drilled out from its back shell.
They rushed towards Wang Yu in an overwhelming manner, chasing and blocking him, like a flame net, trying to cover him.
At the same time, although the Earth Fire Pupa King below was huge, it was not heavy. Its densely packed feet moved on the ground, which was no different from flying.
From time to time, it opened its mouth and spit flames at Wang Yu in the sky, determined to knock him down.
Wang Yu condensed the Heart Bamboo Magic, and the purple bamboo leaves flew, killing a large number of moths.
At this time, the power of this innate combat method of large-scale killing was reflected.
If you use a knife to chop, you can't chop it all in your lifetime.
From a distance, Wang Yu looked like a fighter plane equipped with unlimited bullets, dodging and fighting monsters in the air.
Those moths were fearless and carried the extremely rare Earth Core Fire on their bodies.
Once they hit Wang Yu, the burning could really break his defense and injure him.
In a short while, he was already injured in many places by the moth's suicide attack.
The Earth Fire Pupa Emperor also hatched several huge flame butterflies, with dazzling flames, which were extremely dangerous, and Wang Yu's eyelids jumped.
The heat energy contained in this butterfly was quite exaggerated.
Seeing this, he simply dived down from the air and headed towards the body of the Earth Fire Pupa Emperor.
The Earth Fire Pupa Emperor roared to the sky, and a large number of moths suddenly spread out of a circle of its shell, thousands of them.
Weaving into a fire net, it pounced upwards towards Wang Yu.
Wang Yu's dive speed did not decrease but increased, and he drew his sword to use the Ice Soul Slash, and the sword energy instantly froze the water vapor in the air, like a frozen crescent.
Also frozen were the groups of fire moths, and they crashed downwards.
Boom.
With a tremor of the earth and mountains, the frozen crescent moon broke into pieces, and the core fire on the pupa emperor vaporized the ice blade, rising rapidly, and in an instant, thick steam filled the surroundings.
Wang Yu followed the moon blade and approached the fire pupa emperor.
Compared with the opponent's huge body like a giant whale, Wang Yu seemed much smaller.
When approaching, he slashed the second knife again.
This time, it was his strongest output, the true meaning of the extreme sword technique, combined with the water bridge and the star sword in his body.
Boom!
The intelligence of the fire pupa emperor seemed to be quite high. Feeling the threat, the core fire on his body suddenly surged, soaring into the sky, turning into a giant fire column of dozens of meters, instantly engulfing Wang Yu.
Even the clouds above his head were pierced with a big hole.
The fire column lasted for dozens of seconds before it dissipated. A small fireball flew to one side, fell to the ground and bounced up, smashing countless rocks before it stopped.
The innate energy around him kept flowing until the flames on his body dissipated, revealing a burnt body.
"What kind of fire is this, so powerful!" Wang Yu coughed lightly and blew out a large puff of black smoke.
He felt that the power of this flame was almost as strong as the thunder of Lei Ze, and it was definitely not an ordinary flame.
He ran the body refining method to accelerate the self-healing of his body, and suddenly his whole body was numb and itchy, and the taste was sour and refreshing.
On his body, a protective talisman stone had been shattered, and the two carefully prepared rune inner armors had been burned beyond recognition.
In his bleeding ears, he could hear the sharp hissing of the Earth Fire Pupa Emperor in the distance, as if he was extremely angry.
If you look closely, you can see a deep crack on its shell from left to right, with flaming blood flowing out of it, and then it quickly vaporized.
This is naturally Wang Yu's masterpiece.
The shell of this underground king, which has never been penetrated, was destroyed by his knife today.
How can it not be painful and angry.
"It's still not enough cultivation..." Wang Yu muttered to himself as he listened to the roar.
If he had the cultivation level of the middle and late stages of the innate realm, his knife would not only be as simple as splitting the shell.
It should be directly cut in half!
Looking at the flying fire moths and the huge flame butterflies, Wang Yu felt that his body had a little support, so he wanted to get up and try to run away.
It was too risky to stay.
At this moment, a six-colored strange light suddenly appeared in the sky, and it smashed towards the roaring Earth Fire Pupa Emperor below.
Wang Yu saw clearly that it was actually a sword energy.
The Earth Fire Pupa Emperor was then beheaded by the six-colored sword energy, leaving no room for resistance.
"So strong!" Wang Yu said in surprise, not expecting the situation to change so quickly.
The previously invincible Earth Fire Pupa Emperor was suddenly beheaded the next moment, declaring his death.
"Hmph, evil beast!"
In the air, Zizhu Zhenren retracted his two fingers and snorted coldly.
Wang Yu was relieved to see that it was the old man in person.
Fortunately, it was not some other strong man of unknown origin who triggered a new inexplicable event.
"Master, I'm here." Wang Yu felt that the injury in his throat had recovered a little, and he spoke immediately.
Above, Zizhu Zhenren heard Wang Yu's voice and fell immediately.
He left the tower this time just to find this little disciple.
It was also thanks to the fact that the battle between him and the Earth Fire Pupa Emperor was too intense.
The pillar of fire that shot up into the sky could be clearly seen even from hundreds of miles away.
"My disciple, you have suffered." Seeing Wang Yu's dark appearance that his parents could not recognize, Zizhu Zhenren felt a little distressed.
Thinking about it, he turned around and used his finger as a sword to draw. The six-color sword energy from before reappeared, splitting the ground and cutting a small hill in half, while also splitting the Earth Fire Pupa Emperor again.
"Thanks to Master, the disciple was saved." Wang Yu said gratefully.
But if he wanted to leave, he could have gotten away just now.
The Earth Fire Pupa Emperor, whose shell was cracked, was already in a state of confusion. When it reacted and wanted to find Wang Yu again, Wang Yu had already disappeared.
"Take this Wanchun Pill first, and then follow me back." Zizhu Zhenren said, and his true energy wrapped a green pill in front of Wang Yu.
It was exactly the same as the one he gave Miao Tong before.
This is the healing medicine of Zizhu Peak, named Wanchun Pill.
Whether it is healing or detoxification, it is a panacea.
Although Wang Yu can rely on his extraordinary self-healing ability to recover, there is no need to refuse Zizhu Zhenren's kindness, so he took Wanchun Pill.
If this pill is placed in the outside world, it is naturally a top-grade treasure, but here with Zizhu Zhenren, this pill is not a rare thing.
If he wants, he can produce it in batches.
With the help of the warm medicinal properties of the pill, Wang Yu's injuries will recover faster.
When he returned to the tower, he was almost healed.
The scabs on his body fell off layer by layer, revealing the previously intact skin.
Miao Tong was relieved to see Wang Yu brought back safely by Zizhu Zhenren.
She didn't want to cause the master's disciple who had just been accepted by the master to die because of her poor care.
Now the herd of earth beasts outside the tower has been cleared.
Some died, some escaped.
Even those emperor-level earth beasts surrendered after the arrival of the sect's real masters. Some of the more intelligent ones ran faster than anyone else. It was unknown whether they went back to the cave or fled to other places.
"Senior Zizhu, we have discussed this time and want to explore the underground of the mining star to eliminate our concerns. I wonder if you are willing to go with us." Han Yang asked the returning Zizhu politely.
"Well, let's go and see together." Zizhu stroked his beard and said seriously.
They all believed that the large number of emperor-level earth beasts this time must have originated from under the cave.
After the several masters quickly decided, they left the tower without hesitation.
Wang Yu and other disciples could stay near the tower and wait for news.
Taking advantage of this gap, he refined the essence of the flesh and blood of the Earth Fire Pupa Emperor that he had absorbed before.
Its huge blood and energy were simply a tonic for Wang Yu.
Zizhu Zhenren didn't need these, so they all came to him.
I thought the real people would return soon, but I didn't expect that they would have to wait for half a month.
During this period, the elders of the sect had brought the deacon team to clean up the flood of earth beasts.
Without the emperor-level earth beasts, the difficulty of cleaning up was greatly reduced.
When the real people returned from the cave, although they didn't say anything, Wang Yu noticed the heaviness in the words of several real people.
Some simply kept silent and went back to the sect directly.
"Go back." Zizhu Zhenren said to Miaotong and Wang Yu.
The abnormal movement in the cave has been dealt with, and the two people's tasks have been completed.
"Master, my thunder bridge has not been built yet, and I want to stay in Lei Ze to continue practicing." Wang Yu said at this time.
Although he didn't know what the real people saw in the cave, he didn't want to end the practice in Lei Ze so hastily.
The pain and happiness of the thunder made him unable to let go.
Zizhu Zhenren frowned slightly, then nodded and said, "Okay, but be careful, and don't get close to the cave."
Wang Yu agreed without hesitation. He would not go near the cave unless it was okay.
Especially after experiencing the power of the emperor-level earth beast, he would not do that.
"In addition, whether the thunder bridge is built or not, you have to come back for the Wufeng Exchange Meeting next year." Zizhu Zhenren continued.
"Yes, Master." Wang Yu agreed readily.
Zizhu Peak only has two direct disciples, him and Miao Tong. If he is not present at the exchange meeting, Zizhu Peak will seem even more sparsely populated.
