The abdomen of the calamity-level beast was shrieking so loudly that it could tear a person's brain apart. Every stripe on its shell was glittering, and its antennae were shaking so violently that they were about to be broken. It was obvious that it was in unbearable agony!
However, the perception of many insect-type apocalyptic beasts did not entirely rely on their eyes. The calamity-level beast was a biological weapon created by the eggs of apocalypse, which had the features of many apocalyptic beasts. Other than its pair of compound eyes, its antennae also boasted the ability to perceive things.
It hated Li Yao's guts and charged at him crazily.
Li Yao fled to the rear of the battle line in a helical line of fire in midair, diving to the ground nonstop.
The calamity-level beast, in excruciating pain, focused all its senses on Li Yao and chased after him closely.
The two parties were moving so fast that they were about to crash into the ground.
But on the ground, almost five heavy tanks and war machines were piled up into an iron fortress!
Li Yao activated the Sky Scorpion Armor. The spiritual gas spurting out of the back of the armor was all mixed with dazzling flames. After a roar, he passed through the narrow gap between the heavy tanks and the war machines!
The calamity-level beast was enormous in size. Its head had been seriously damaged, and its senses were impaired. It was unable to determine the size of the object in front of it. Thinking that it was just a heavy tank, it crashed into it brutally, trying to knock the tank over.
As it turned out, it crashed into the iron fortress made of almost five heavy tanks!
The heavy tanks were all cannon carriages used to carry enormous True Qi cannons. When necessary, they were used as turrets. Therefore, the two sides of the tanks had stabilizing legs that could be pierced into the ground.
At this moment, the stabilizing legs had all pierced into the ground. They were in the form of turrets. They were connected to each other by thick chains and couldn't have been steadier.
The calamity-level beast struggled hard. More than ten chains were broken, but there were still dozens of chains that bound it to the heavy tanks.
It wanted to struggle again, but there was no time. The cannonballs that had been piled up inside the iron fortress like a small arsenal exploded instantly. The fireball consumed everything within two hundred square meters. The blast even overturned the tanks almost a thousand meters away.
Many of the weaker Qi Practitioners felt a sharp pain in their ears and couldn't hear anything. They could only watch as a huge mushroom cloud rose into the sky, facing off against the dispirited tribulation cloud not far away.
When the fireball was finally extinguished, a crater more than ten meters deep had appeared on the ground. Five heavy tanks had been blown to pieces in the explosion. The calamity-level exotic beast had been blown to pieces, too. A large amount of melted metal was flowing freely inside its body.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! "
Countless experts rushed to the front of the calamity-grade exotic beast and dealt the final blow to this dying bug.
The vitality of insect-type exotic beasts was extremely shocking. Some exotic beasts were still alive even after their heads were cut off. They could wreak havoc for several days as if nothing had happened. Therefore, they had to completely destroy them before they could be at ease!
This was hundreds of times he had resisted the heavenly tribulation. The experience of blood and tears.
However, all of this had nothing to do with Li Yao.
After running for five to six hundred meters, he took off the burning armor on his body and fell to the ground.
The Beetle Demonic Fire was extremely weird. Although he was protected by the Sky Scorpion Armor, a series of black and purple blisters were still burning on his body. Some sort of poison seemed to have invaded his body, too.
He rolled on the ground for a while. Then, countless hands lifted him up and lifted him up high.
Countless qi-trainers of Iron Plateau were cheering for him and shouting the same name at the same time.
"Sand Scorpion! Sand Scorpion! Sand Scorpion! Sand Scorpion! "
No matter who killed the calamity-level exotic beast in the end, it was Li Yao who had delivered the fatal blow. It was an honor that nobody could steal from him. He was destined to be the most brilliant star in the battle against the apocalypse!
Very soon, cheers echoed from afar. The calamity-level exotic beast had been completely annihilated!
There were only a few small fries left on the battlefield. It was only a matter of time before the victory was secured.
Li Yao was moving up and down in the crowd. He was dizzy, excited, and vaguely uneasy. Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that Xiong Wuji was still standing on the cliff hundreds of meters high. His eyes were even sharper than before, indicating that he was searching for something.
While Li Yao was puzzled and everybody was overjoyed, an intense earthquake suddenly came from deep below the ground!
The earthquake was so intense that thousands of cracks immediately appeared on the ground and spread to the cliffs on the two sides. Soon, the cracks climbed up the cliffs.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
The cracks were spreading out nonstop in the shape of a spider's web, as if a fishing net had been added to the steep cliff. Huge rocks were falling down, raising a huge cloud of dust, as if a dim, yellow sky had been added to the canyon!
"What's going on?"
"It's an earthquake!"
"Not good. We are in the depths of the crack. The cliffs on the two sides are likely to collapse. Chances are that we will all be buried inside!"
"What's that?"
Including Li Yao, everybody looked at the back of the iron defense line of the Furious Bears Tribe, which was at the center of the earthquake, in great shock.
In only three seconds, the ground behind them bulged, and a hill dozens of meters high appeared.
Then, the hill exploded abruptly. A giant shadow dozens of meters long appeared in the middle of the dirty smoke!
What a terrifying apocalyptic beast it was!
It was like a giant iron ore worm that had been enlarged ten times. Just the length of its body that burst out of the ground was dozens of meters long, and its diameter was close to a terrifying ten meters. Its body was full of spikes, and its segments were constantly twisting and rotating. It was like a super-large digging machine!
The calamity-level exotic beast that looked like a long-horned beetle just now was nothing in front of it!
A heavy tank happened to be right where it was exposed to the ground. It was blown into the sky together with the tank and bitten by the worm.
BOOM!
The remaining cannonballs and crystals inside the tank exploded. Two enormous fireballs popped out of the super giant worm's mouth, but it did not care about them at all and simply swallowed the burning remains. It breathed out a mouthful of hot air, as if it had burped after a good meal!
"This is. Is this a calamity-level exotic beast? "
"A second calamity-level exotic beast?"
Everybody was dumbfounded. Even the chiefs of several tribes were dazed for a moment.
In the blink of an eye, Xiong Wuji jumped down from the cliff. The horrifying strength of the 99th level of the Refinement Stage was fully unleashed. He leaped to the head of the super giant sandworm like a meteor and slashed out a saber aura almost a hundred meters long from his three-meter-long saber. It slashed at the head of the worm heavily!
Clang!
After a thunderous strike, the saber collided with the head of the super giant worm brutally. After a metallic noise, the saber was deeply embedded into the head of the super giant worm, almost cutting its circular mouthpart in half. But it was clamped tightly by the worm, too. There was no time to pull it away!
In pain, the super giant worm retreated into the ground again.
But Xiong Wuji was not scared at all. Spiritual gas surged out of his fists and expanded crazily like furious flames, while he punched the mouthpart of the super giant worm nonstop.
Every time he threw a punch, a few sandworm fangs would be smashed into pieces!
The man and the worm retreated into the ground just like that!
The earth was trembling nonstop.
Everyone was dumbfounded by what they saw. Li Yao was the first to realize what was going on. He ran to the edge of the cave from which the super giant worm had rushed out, only to discover that stinky steam was popping up from the cave. It was so dark and bottomless that it seemed to lead to the center of the planet!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The earth was undulating like an ocean. Stalagmites dozens of meters tall were rising up one moment, and then the ground was collapsing, revealing bottomless pits. Stinky steam was spurting out of the cracks, too.
The cliffs on both sides were falling apart. Small-scale collapses were happening in many places!
The intense quakes lasted for more than ten minutes. At the center of the battlefield … The super giant worm rushed out again, but this time, it was much less intimidating than before. Hardly had it craned its head out of the ground when it collapsed and rolled on the ground, screaming.
After rolling for five minutes, the super large sandworm gradually stopped moving. It was like a water bag that was riddled with holes. Blue body fluids flowed out of it, and it gradually withered.
From its mouthpart, which was almost bald, a person who was not very tall walked out slowly.
Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.
His body was covered in sticky fluids that seemed highly corrosive. Many parts of his body had been corroded to the point that his bones were visible. His right arm had been cut off from the elbow, and blood was spurting out like a fountain. Every step he took, he would leave a pool of blood behind him.
Along the way, it was like a line of blood!
Li Yao, Sha Yulan, Wu Mayan, and the qi-trainers of the Furious Bears Tribe charged forward without bothering about anything!
"Chief!"
Before Xiong Wuji fell to the ground, Li Yao and Wu Mayan caught him in time, one on the left and the other on the right. They felt that they were holding a mountain!
"Father Xiong!"
Looking at Xiong Wuji's missing right hand, Wu Mayan knew that it must have been swallowed by the giant worm and ground into pieces. He was so anxious that his eyes turned red.
"Don't cry."
Xiong Wuji still had the strength to smile. He said softly, "I still have a left hand. It can resist one more apocalypse and buy me twenty years. In another twenty years, when the third apocalypse arrives, it will be your turn to make your contribution!" Xiong Wuji smiled.
"Father Xiong!"
Wu Mayan sniffed hard, but there was still a hint of sobbing in his voice. "How did you know that there would be another calamity-level apocalyptic beast, and such a huge one?"
"Because it was too weak," Xiong Wuji said softly.
Xiong Wuji said softly, "Judging from the scale of the apocalypse clouds, the eggs of apocalypse must've contained enormous energy. However, the apocalyptic beasts that were born after the explosion were too weak. They were almost annihilated by us in less than a day. Even the so-called 'calamity-level apocalyptic beast' that showed up in the end was so weak.
"In the past, several experts in the eightieth level of the Refinement Stage had to die in order to kill the calamity-level apocalyptic beasts. But this time, we were almost completely unharmed. This doesn't seem right.
"We had a hundred percent of the resources, but only seventy percent of the apocalyptic beasts were created. Where did the remaining thirty percent go?
"Therefore, I believe that there should be another calamity-level apocalyptic beast. No. This is the real calamity-level apocalyptic beast!"
Li Yao took a deep breath and tried to hold back the shock in his heart.
He had gone deep underground and killed a calamity-level apocalyptic beast on his own!
