"They're from the Taiqing Sect!"
"We're saved!"
In the greenish-purple light screen, the House of Ye cultivators quickly saw the Taiqing Sect's emblem on the cultivators who suddenly appeared outside and immediately cheered with joy. Some of them even cried tears of joy.
Seeing this, the patriarch of the Ye clan also relaxed. However, as the patriarch, his state of mind was naturally incomparable to ordinary clansmen. He did not panic because of this. Instead, he continued to wave the flag to reinforce the formation while issuing a few orders.
Roar! Roar!
Roar! An ear-piercing screech was heard. With a flash of red light, a giant ladybug Jin Dan stage stemborer flew out from the stemborer army and blocked Liu Ming's way.
Sizzle!
On the red round carapace on its back, the white spots suddenly shone brightly, and a thick purple mist was spouted from it, shrouding Liu Ming and the others.
"Be careful, the mist is poisonous!"
Kun Yu, who was flying at the very front, yelled. Just as she was about to make a move, Liu Ming waved a hand, and an azure bull projection flew out. The projection opened its mouth to expel a burst of azure light, which swallowed the purple mist with a suction force.
In just a few breaths, the poisonous mist from the ladybug stemborer's shell was swallowed by the green bull.
The ladybug stemborer was dumbfounded!
The mist was its natal poison. Not only was it extremely poisonous, but it also had a terrifying corrosive power. Yet, it was sucked in by the green bull.
Kun Yu took a deep look at Liu Ming. Her figure moved and went straight to the purple stemborer. She pointed a finger and released a golden wheel.
The edge of the wheel was as sharp as a knife. In an instant, it expanded to several feet wide and spun with a buzzing sound. It was aimed at the ladybug stemborer's head.
The ladybug stemborer roared and raised its front claws to block the attack.
But in the next moment, a "kacha" sound was heard as the golden wheel easily chopped off its two front claws. Then, it chopped its body into two halves without slowing down. Gray blood splattered everywhere.
After killing the initial Jin Dan stage stemborer, the golden wheel did not stop there. It flew into the surrounding stemborer swarm and spun quickly. Countless golden light blades shot out in all directions.
All the low-level stemborers within a radius of several dozen feet were wiped out.
The Crystal Level disciples gasped in admiration when they saw Kun Yu's display of power. Their morale was boosted.
Shangguan Yanyu's hand whistled as she summoned a scarlet copper ring magic treasure. A tiger's roar rang out, and a three-meter-wide scarlet sound wave rippled out. All of the stemborers within the range of the sound wave trembled before turning to dust.
Ling Yiyi followed closely behind Shangguan Yanyu. A blue light flashed in front of her, and countless thin blue threads shot out from her sleeves, wrapping around a dozen stemborers that were trying to get close to her. With a light flick of her hands, the blue threads instantly tightened and cut the stemborers into several pieces.
Long Yanfei didn't show off. She just released a green sword light, which cut open the stemborers in front of her one by one like a snake coming out of its body.
Liu Ming's gaze fell upon the scarlet copper ring in Shangguan Yanyu's hand, and his eyes flashed slightly. This item was very similar to the Tiger's Bite Bracelet that he had obtained from the Bai Clan when he first entered the cultivation world.
Of course, the Tiger's Bite Bracelet's power was far inferior to this treasure.
After thinking about it, Liu Ming raised his hand and recalled Che Huan's projection. He then formed a sword technique and released the Bitter Wheel Sword again.
The sword was slightly damaged during the battle at Dusk Peak, but it was mostly fine after a few days of nourishment. It suddenly turned into a sky full of sword shadows and then into a huge sword ray that was dozens of feet wide. Countless stemborers were sucked into it without any resistance.
Although there were many stemborers surrounding the Ye Castle, most of them were low-level stemborers with limited power. After the five leading Jin Dan stemborers were killed by Liu Ming and Kun Yu, the stemborer army was quickly dispersed by the Taiqing Gate.
There was a muffled rumble!
The Green Mulberry Thunderflame Formation of Ye Castle suddenly cracked open, and the Master of the Ye Clan led dozens of Ye Clan cultivators out of it, charging into the stemborers.
A roar came from within the stemborer army. The scattered stemborers heard it and immediately fled into the distance.
"Senior Brother Kun, should we chase after them and kill them all?" Shangguan Yanyu looked at the fleeing stemborers and asked eagerly.
Liu Ming's eyes flashed and he looked at Kun Yu.
"Not for now. We don't know much about the stemborers yet. I don't think you'll understand that even if I don't say it," Kun Yu said after a moment of thought.
Shangguan Yanyu looked reluctant but did not say anything else.
"Thank you, fellow Daoists from the Taiqing Sect, for coming all the way here to solve the Ye Castle's crisis. I am the Ye Clan Leader, Ye Zheng. If you don't mind, why don't you rest in the castle?" The green-robed middle-aged man flew over with the Ye Clan cultivators and invited Liu Ming and the others with a fist salute.
"I am Kun Yu. I'm here on the orders of the Sky Halberd Sect's leader to exterminate these stemborers. Kun Yu's brows furrowed slightly as she returned a salute. "There's no need for that. Family Leader Ye, please tell us about these stemborers in detail."
Liu Ming, who was standing next to Kun Yu, also turned to look at her.
"To tell you the truth, the Ye Clan doesn't know much about these stemborers. Although we've heard about them invading the mainland, we haven't encountered them yet so we didn't pay much attention to them. It's just that seven or eight days ago, this group of stemborers suddenly appeared around the Qingsang Mountain Range. After discovering this abnormal situation, I immediately gathered everyone to retreat to the castle and sent a message to the Taiqing Sect for help. Who knows that this group of stemborers still came to the door. If you didn't arrive in time, I'm afraid my Ye Family would be destroyed by these stemborers. "Ye Family's master said immediately with a stiff face.
Kun Yu frowned. She wanted to ask the Ye Clan about the stemborers so that she could decide whether to stay or leave. Who knew that the Ye Clan wouldn't know anything? This was going to be a problem.
"Clan Leader Ye, may I ask if the stemborers that attacked the castle today are all the stemborers in the Qingsang Mountain Range?" Liu Ming suddenly asked.
The Ye Clan Leader pondered for a moment before replying hesitantly, "I don't think so.
"I don't think so. The first time the Stemborers appeared on Qingsang Mountain, they had a conflict with the Ye Clan. I wasn't there at the time, but I heard from one of the elders that there were more than ten thousand stemborers."
Liu Ming's eyes flashed, but he didn't say anything else.
"Where on the Qingsang Mountain Range did you encounter them?" Kun Yu asked.
"It should be in the Yufeng Mountain Range. There are a few mines that are being mined there," the Ye Clan Leader said.
"Senior Martial Brother Kun, let's go and exterminate them. If we allow these stemborers to regroup and attack again after we leave, it'll be bad." Liu Ming glanced at Kun Yu.
"Please point us in the right direction," Kun Yu nodded and said to the head of the Ye family.
The head of the Ye Clan hesitated for a moment, but he quickly nodded his head and agreed.
Under the Ye Clan Leader's arrangements, the Taiqing Gate group and the Ye Clan cultivators met up and chased after the stemborers in the direction of the Yufeng Mountain Range.
An hour later, the group arrived near a few green mountains. There was a faint black mist floating above the mountains.
Liu Ming, who had dealt with stemborers a few times, immediately knew that this was a phenomenon that would occur when a large number of stemborers gathered together.
It seemed like they had found the right place!
The group stopped on a short mountain dozens of miles away.
"Senior Martial Brother Kun, why don't we just charge in?" Shangguan Yanyu asked with a hint of dissatisfaction.
He had already scouted out with his spiritual sense and discovered that there were about four to five thousand stemborers gathered in the mine at the foot of the emerald green mountain, but they didn't seem to have calmed down yet, so it was a good opportunity to exterminate them in one fell swoop.
"Junior Martial Brother, don't be impulsive. It's better to be careful." Kun Yu frowned slightly. For some reason, she had a bad feeling.
Liu Ming glanced at Kun Yu and pondered for a moment. Then, he pointed a finger between his brows. The mind imitation insect on his body transmitted a wave of pure spirit power to him and instantly merged with the divine sense in his mind.
Boom!
His Divine Sense almost doubled in strength in an instant, spreading out in all directions.
After a while, Liu Ming's expression changed and he suddenly shouted, "Watch out, there's an ambush!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the small mountain beneath everyone's feet suddenly exploded, and a monstrous spiritual pressure burst out. Countless rocks shot out in all directions, and a hideous greyish-black insect head the size of a house appeared on the ground.
The Taiqing Gate people were battle-hardened people and their reflexes were extremely fast. As soon as Liu Ming said that, everyone immediately scattered in all directions.
However, the Ye Clan cultivators' reflexes were a little slower. Some of the cultivators were hit by the flying rocks and suddenly exploded like fireworks.
The Ye Clan Master was shocked and angry when he saw this, but he could only protect a few core clansmen around him with a green light and quickly retreat into the distance.
"A Celestial Phenomenon stemborer!"
Kun Yu's figure flashed a few times and appeared in the air dozens of feet away. When she turned around and saw the giant greyish-black stemborer emerging from the ground, she was shocked.
However, at this moment, the stemborer was only partially out of the ground, but it was already extremely long. It looked like a giant earthworm, but its surface was densely covered with gray fleshy tentacles that danced wildly. There were no eyes on its head, only a huge mouth filled with dense fangs, which made one's scalp tingle.
Whoosh!
The greyish-black stemborer's huge body suddenly rushed out of the ground, leaving a long afterimage behind. In an instant, it caught up with a Heavenly Sword Peak disciple who was running slower.
