"Young master, these scorpions don't seem to dare to charge in anymore?" Suddenly, White Demon said to Cheng Yu.
It turned out that these scorpions had surrounded them in a circle and were attacking with all their might. However, just as their circle was shrinking, these scorpions actually stopped attacking and stopped near the circle, as if they were afraid of something.
"Everyone retreat!" Cheng Yu looked at all of this as he quickly thought of something. Looking at the corpse of the Giant Scorpion King behind him, he suddenly shouted at the few people who were still fighting outside the invisible circle.
The others didn't know what was going on but they still quickly retreated and approached Cheng Yu.
Sure enough, after those people retreated a certain distance, the scorpions stopped attacking.
"What's going on?" When everyone saw this situation, although they had a feeling of being reborn after a calamity, they were even more puzzled.
"Could it be they are afraid?" Xin Luo said while gasping for breath. Just now, she was almost eaten by those scorpions. Fortunately, she heard Cheng Yu's command to retreat and saved her life.
"Afraid? Afraid of who? Afraid of you, me, or them? "Xin He shook his head and said unhappily.
The battle just now wasn't easy for him. With the death of the Giant Scorpion King, they were even more reckless. Why would they be afraid of them?
~,
"There's a way!" Hearing everyone's words, Cheng Yu looked at the scorpions and the corpse of the Giant Scorpion King behind him.
"What way? Can we go out now? "Everyone looked at Cheng Yu excitedly.
"That will have to wait until I try to know!" Cheng Yu nodded. He seemed to understand what these scorpions were afraid of, and that was the corpse of the Giant Scorpion King.
This kind of Yama Waning Moon Scorpion was a group of demonic beasts. They were very respectful of their leader. Even though the Giant Scorpion King was already dead, they were still extremely afraid of the corpse.
Thinking of this, Cheng Yu called Jin Toad over.
"Jin Toad, pull the corpse of the Giant Scorpion King out!" Cheng Yu used his thoughts to order Jin Toad.
Under everyone's puzzled gaze, Jin Toad stuck out his tongue and wrapped it around the tail of the Giant Scorpion King before pulling it towards the passage.
Sure enough, the next scene caused everyone to be surprised and pleasantly surprised. Every time Jin Toad pulled the corpse of the Giant Scorpion King forward, the scorpions would retreat a bit.
"Success! Success! These scorpions were afraid of the Scorpion King! Junior Brother Yu, you're really too smart! "Xin Luo said excitedly.
Cheng Yu was only guessing. Now that he saw that this method was indeed effective, he was very happy. At least they could be saved and wouldn't have to die here.
"Alright, let's get out of here first!" Cheng Yu said. There was no sense of security here. There were scorpions everywhere. If this method of his didn't work halfway, wouldn't he be dead? It was better to hurry out and save his life first.
"That's right. We can't stay here for long. Let's talk after we get out of here, in case the situation changes!" Xin Yun also urged.
Ever since they entered this place, they had been on the brink of death several times. She had had enough of the environment here. She just wanted to get out of here as soon as possible and return to the human world.
Cheng Yu nodded. He got Money Toad to pull the Giant Scorpion King's corpse out.
"Hey hey hey! Junior Brother Yu, wait for a while. In any case, we are going out. Let's bring those crystals along first! "Xin Luo stopped Cheng Yu.
Everyone smiled. This fellow was truly a miser. Even at this moment, he was still thinking about those crystals. However, the current situation was still considered stable. With so many crystals, it would be a waste not to take them. Otherwise, wouldn't they have wasted their lives?
Originally, these crystals were piled up on the back of the Giant Scorpion King. It was just that after the battle started, these crystals had scattered all over the ground. Although a lot of them were injured, when they picked up the treasures, everyone's injuries seemed to have gotten a lot better. It seemed like not only were these treasures valuable, they also had the effect of relieving pain and healing injuries.
In the future, when they were fighting, there was a need to prepare a bunch of treasures to motivate them. This way, they would definitely have more energy to kill their enemies. Even the usually calm and steady Xin Yun couldn't resist the temptation of so many crystals as she quickly picked up the crystals on the ground.
Of course, Cheng Yu wouldn't fall behind. Although he wasn't lacking in money or treasures, no one would dislike having too much money and treasures. Furthermore, crystals were indeed good stuff. To cultivators, it was a very good choice to increase their strength.
However, crystals were too hard to come by and expensive. In an auction, hundreds of thousands of low-grade spiritual stones could only be exchanged for one crystal. No one would be so rich to the extent that they would use crystals to casually cultivate.
But now, they could. In this cave, there might not be hundreds of thousands of crystals, but there would definitely be tens of thousands. Even with so many of them, everyone would still be able to get a few thousand crystals.
Looking at those humans picking up the crystals, these scorpions seemed to be somewhat berserk. However, they were hindered by their leader's might, so they didn't barge in. They could only watch as the humans scuttled back and forth.
When everyone finished picking up the scattered crystals, their faces finally revealed a satisfied smile.
"It's about time. It's time for us to go out. Those scorpions are already extremely berserk. I'm afraid that when the time comes, this move won't be of any use. That would be troublesome, "When he saw some scorpions scuttling back and forth, as if they would have the urge to charge in at any moment, Cheng Yu still had quite a bit of worry in his heart as he spoke to everyone.
"That's right. Although crystals are precious, compared to our lives, it's not even worth a single coin. Everyone should know when to stop!" Xin Yun also voiced out.
"Since it's like that, let's leave quickly!" Xin He nodded as he kept all the crystals he had picked up.
Cheng Yu commanded the Money Toad to move again as he pulled the Giant Scorpion King's corpse towards the passageway.
Facing the Giant Scorpion King's might, these scorpions retreated helplessly.
"Haha! These fellows are truly interesting. Why would they care so much about a corpse?" Walking into the passageway, Xin Luo watched as the scorpions retreated unceasingly while the scorpions behind them followed closely but didn't dare to come forward.
The others shook their heads. They couldn't understand what was going on as they looked at Cheng Yu. Cheng Yu's cultivation realm might not be high, but his experience wasn't something they could compare to.
"How would we know about the demonic beast world? Every demonic beast has its own unique trait. I have seen quite a number of demonic beasts that live in groups. Such behavior isn't exclusive to the Yama Waning Moon Scorpion. At least, among the demonic beasts that I know of, there's also the Silver Fire Ant. As for why it's like that, I have no idea. Perhaps, it's really because they respect their leader, "Cheng Yu shook his head.
Although he was once an immortal and had seen a lot of demonic beasts that they had never seen before, it didn't mean that he knew everything. There were still a lot of things that he didn't know. However, he still had some experience.
The passageway was very long. Furthermore, because the scorpions retreated slowly, they walked slowly as well. Originally, they had spent an incense worth of time to walk in, but now, they had spent an hour to return to the hall.
However, Cheng Yu and the others didn't stop as they continued to walk forward. Seeing they were getting closer and closer to the exit, everyone was excited. This time, they had really narrowly escaped death. Fortunately, Cheng Yu had discovered this secret. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Boom! Boom!
"What's that sound?" Just when everyone felt that they could walk out of the passageway safely, a series of loud noises resonated from the front, causing everyone to be astonished.
"Not good! They are trying to collapse the passageway, burying us here! "Cheng Yu's complexion changed as he cried out in alarm.
"What? Collapse the passageway? Then wouldn't we be dead for sure? Quickly charge out! "Xinluo was startled.
Needless to say, Cheng Yu already knew what to do. He quickly commanded the golden toad to move forward. However, those scorpions were unable to retreat in time. Unexpectedly, they had blocked the passageway. Some of the berserk scorpions seemed to no longer be affected by the Giant Scorpion King's might as they attacked Cheng Yu and the others.
Facing such an unforeseen event, everyone already had no other choice. The only way was to kill their way out.
Fortunately, these berserk scorpions were only a minority and not all of them. This gave them sufficient opportunity to kill them.
When they had killed their way out, they saw some of the scorpions were actually colliding against the stone wall unceasingly. They wanted to collapse the passageway to bury them.
When they saw more and more scorpions were no longer under their control and they were still quite a distance away from the exit, Cheng Yu and the others still didn't dare to throw away the Giant Scorpion King's corpse. Otherwise, the exit would be completely blocked.
Under the lead of the golden toad, Cheng Yu held onto the Jewel Cauldron and smashed it towards those scorpions, bringing them a chance of survival.
As for the golden toad, it tossed the Giant Scorpion King's corpse forward before charging into the group of scorpions. The others had also charged into the battlefield, slaughtering their way out.
"Exit! Exit! The exit is in front. Everyone, work hard! "After killing for half a day, Cheng Yu suddenly saw a white light appearing in front of him.
"Junior Apprentice Brother, save me!" Xin Luo shouted as she flew over, landing on the ground with a thud.
"Are you alright?" Cheng Yu slashed down a number of scorpions that wanted to kill Xin Luo.
"If you still don't make a move, you will be dead!" Xin Luo clutched onto her chest. Her entire body was covered in blood and her expression was somewhat painful.
"Go rest in the Mountain River Diagram!" Cheng Yu passed him a bottle of god water before keeping him away.
"Everyone, enter my Mountain River Diagram!" Seeing that everyone was either lightly or heavily injured before looking at the exit, Cheng Yu flashed in front of everyone and kept them in, including Golden Toad.
Cheng Yu held onto the sword in one hand and the cauldron in the other, smashing down unceasingly. Looking for an opportunity, he turned into a huge sword, charging out from the group of scorpions!
Whoosh! Looking from afar, a green light suddenly rushed out from the cave. Behind it was a group of scorpions. It was truly terrifying!
