The corpse bugs surged towards the two of them. They were not fast and even looked slow, but their steady rhythm made one's scalp tingle.
Any attack that landed on the corpse bugs could temporarily kill them, but after a short period of time, the corpse bugs would revive and surge towards the two of them.
No attack could stop the corpse bugs from approaching. They were swarming towards them from all directions!
Xia Pingan summoned a huge Xuanwu. When the Xuanwu flew out, snow began to fall within a one-kilometer radius, turning it into a world of ice and snow. After a black breath, hundreds of corpse bugs turned into ice sculptures, shattered, and turned into dregs. They would then revive and surge towards the two of them like a red wave of despair.
Xia Pingan and Shu Longxi fought side by side. Shu Longxi summoned a hundred-meter-long serpent. The serpent had a pair of wings on its back. It opened its mouth and swallowed hundreds of corpse bugs into its stomach. However, the serpent did not last long. After a few minutes, the serpent's stomach was split open and corpse bugs crawled out of its stomach. The serpent turned into light and dissipated.
Xia Pingan summoned the Level 7 Falling Star Assassin again. The Falling Star Assassin flew through the air like a strange shadow. The dagger in its hand was sharp and swift. It was like an electric light that burst out from the darkness. It slid through the corpse bugs and cut through their fat wriggling bodies, turning them into pieces.
However, in the blink of an eye, the corpse bugs' fragments began to gather and regenerate. New corpse bugs crawled out and continued to approach the two of them.
As the battle began, red flames appeared on the corpse bugs' bodies.
Xia Pingan waved his hand and dozens of fireballs flew out and bombarded the corpse bugs at the front. When the fireballs that could injure and incinerate the corpse bugs flew close to the corpse bugs, they immediately dissipated into a red mist and dissipated in this space.
Xia Pingan finally knew where the red mist in this space came from.
The corpses from before had also fought with these corpse worms before they turned into corpses. However, the last traces of their battle were the red fog.
The Falling Star Assassin summoned by Xia Pingan approached another corpse bug and stabbed out with his dagger. Being surrounded by the red flame on the corpse bug, the LV 7 Falling Star Assassin turned into light and dissipated, no longer able to harm those corpse bugs.
"All attacks on these corpse bugs will be ineffective after one or two attacks. The fire on these corpse bugs will adapt to all attacks and neutralize all attacks …" As Shu Longxi spoke, she waved her hand and summoned a thundercloud.
Terrifying lightning bolts and thunderbolts flashed in the space, turning dozens of corpse worms into dust. However, the dust only existed for a short while. After a short while, the corpse worms came back to life from their cocoons.
Not only that, but when the lightning bolts fell again, they were blocked by the red flame on the corpse worms. A few corpse worms crawled into the thundercloud. In the blink of an eye, the thundercloud melted and turned into a red fog that dissipated.
Xia Pingan also discovered that these corpse worms were not only unkillable, but they could also quickly evolve and adapt to their attacks. The attacks that had been effective before quickly became ineffective against these corpse worms.
These corpse worms were too terrifying. Fortunately, these corpse worms were only born in this strange space near the corpses of the God Spirits. There were not many of them. If these corpse worms could reproduce like humans or the Zerg, the world would be ruled by these corpse worms.
The corpse worms wriggled and slowly approached. It was simply despairing.
If he could not think of a way, he and Shu Longxi would become floating corpses in this space.
After Xuanwu and Vermillion Bird's attacks were ineffective against the corpse worms, Xia Pingan waved his hand and summoned a huge White Tiger flashing with silver light.
This was the first time Xia Pingan had summoned the White Tiger, one of the Four Sacred Beasts.
The ten-meter-long White Tiger was flashing with a sharp golden aura. The summoned White Tiger raised its head and let out a roar before charging towards the Corpse Worms. With a roar, a metal storm rolled up in the void. The storm carried a sharp aura like millions of sharp blades. Wherever the White Tiger went, all the Corpse Worms within a hundred meters of the White Tiger were cut into pieces as if they had been chopped by countless guillotines.
The attacks of the corpse worms temporarily slowed down.
The corpse worms still needed some time to adapt to the White Tiger's attack.
"You can actually summon the White Tiger Sacred Beast?" Shu Longxi, who was fighting, looked at Xia Pingan in surprise. At this time, Shu Longxi had summoned dozens of strange birds that flew around the two of them to resist the attacks of the corpse worms.
"Let's retreat behind the giant coffin …"
"Okay …"
Shu Longxi nodded and flew back to the head of the coffin with Xia Pingan. They leaned against the giant word "Foundation" and fought. With the giant coffin as a support, the corpse bugs couldn't corrode the coffin. The two of them only needed to face the corpse bugs in front of them, which greatly reduced the pressure.
"You hold off the corpse worms for a while, I'll think of a way …" Xia Pingan waved his hand and summoned the Ghost Rattan. The Ghost Rattan appeared and disappeared unpredictably in the space. In an instant, it turned into a vine barrier full of thorns outside the two of them and slowed down the speed of the corpse worms.
"What idea do you have?" Shu Longxi waved her hand and summoned a huge shield to block the Ghost Rattan barrier and fight the enemy with Xia Pingan.
"I don't know. If my idea doesn't work, I'm afraid you'll die here with me today …" Xia Pingan said in a deep voice.
"Bah, don't jinx it. Who wants to die with you. If we really die, you'll owe me a life in your next life …" Shu Longxi scolded, but she was not careless. With a wave of her hand, a large dam appeared in front of her. Rolling water gushed out of the dam and swept towards the corpse worms around them, washing them away.
The time to fight for their lives had arrived. As an important figure of the Shu Longxi family, Shu Longxi's strength began to show.
Seeing that Shu Longxi could still hold on, Xia Pingan no longer paid attention to the battle. With a wave of his hand, a man as elegant as a woman with a long beard was summoned by Xia Pingan.
— — This was Cui Hao! A fierce person who had mastered powerful divination methods!
Xia Pingan did not know divination, but Cui Hao did.
"Where's the way out?" Xia Pingan asked Cui Hao directly.
Cui Hao's wise and profound eyes swept across the corpse worms in front of him, then looked at the huge coffin behind him. He closed his eyes and moved his hands, taking out a tortoiseshell. Then, he waved his hands and a bonfire appeared in front of him. He put the tortoiseshell on the bonfire and slowly burned it.
Shu Longxi was really shocked!
This Mei Zheng in front of her seemed to be at the Seven Sun realm, but this guy could summon things that many Eight Sun realm summoners might not be able to summon. She wondered how many trump cards he had.
There were only a handful of summoners who could summon diviners. Even in the history of the Shu Longxi family, it had only appeared once.
The battle did not stop. Xia Pingan's White Tiger and Ghost Rattan had already dissipated, and a large number of corpse worms were approaching. Cui Hao was slowly burning the tortoise shell at a speed that could make one anxious to death.
Shu Longxi gritted her teeth and held on because she felt that just as Cui Hao was burning the tortoise shell for divination, Xia Pingan's divine power was fluctuating violently. His entire divine power was rapidly flowing into the fire to support the burning of the fire.
Xia Pingan's expression was grave. He was definitely not more relaxed than her.
This kind of life-saving divination at a critical moment was also very taxing on a summoner. It was not something that could be done just by summoning a single diviner. Divine power was the foundation of divination. The more important the problem, the more divine power it would consume.
Seeing the corpse worms approaching, Shu Longxi gritted her teeth and threw out a formation disk. It formed a large array to protect her and Xia Pingan.
The formation disk that she threw out shone brightly, but in front of the corpse worms, it sizzled. The light of the formation disk was quickly being corroded by the red flames on the corpse worms.
In just a moment, Xia Pingan's divine power was consumed like flowing water. More than 2,000 points were poured into the fire burning the tortoise shell. Xia Pingan's expression changed. This kind of divination was definitely extravagant.
But finally, just as the formation disk that Shu Longxi threw out was on the verge of collapse, the tortoise shell in Cui Hao's hand was burning. With a pop, it finally cracked open. Strange patterns appeared on the tortoise shell. Cui Hao looked at the patterns on the tortoise shell and closed his eyes. He held the tortoise shell in one hand and formed hand seals with the other to quickly calculate.
Finally, Cui Hao opened his eyes and only said four words. "The path to survival lies in the soul!"
After saying these four words, Cui Hao then disappeared.
The summoned diviner occupied one task at a time. If he wanted to divine again, he would have to summon it again.
The path to survival lies in the soul?
What did that mean?
What was the soul? Could it be soul power? Or was it related to the Spiritual Realm? The only things that he could grasp now were soul power and soul tools. These corpse worms couldn't be killed by simple soul tools. Could it be …
Xia Pingan was dumbfounded. His mind was quickly calculating.
"Those corpse worms are rushing over …" Shu Longxi exclaimed.
"Boom …" The formation disk that Shu Longxi threw out finally collapsed at this moment. It was corroded and melted by the corpse worms. The corpse worms that rushed over suddenly appeared in front of the two of them like a tide. They wriggled and squeezed over. Shu Longxi's expression completely changed. If the man beside her didn't do anything, then the two of them would really be finished.
Just as the corpse worms rushed over, Xia Pingan's eyes flashed and he roared, "Slash …"
As soon as he said that, a majestic Son of Heaven appeared in front of Xia Pingan. He pulled out the Son of Heaven's Sword and slashed at the corpse worms.
This slash of the Son of Heaven's Sword not only consumed Xia Pingan's divine power, but also the soul power he injected.
The resplendent sword soared through the sky. It was unparalleled and carried a mighty aura. The soul power that Xia Pingan injected into it even coated the might of the Son of Heaven's Sword with a layer of magnificent and dazzling golden brilliance …
The corpse worms that surged over were swept away by the Son of Heaven's Sword and turned into ashes …
The other corpse worms no longer surged forward. Instead, they seemed to have smelled something terrifying and hurriedly retreated in fear. It was as though they had met their nemesis. They immediately retreated in front of the two of them and didn't dare to approach anymore …
The corpse worms that had turned into ashes didn't revive. Instead, they turned into red beads that floated in the void.
Why did the corpse worms in front of them retreat? In that move just now, the aura of the Son of Heaven's Sword that this man summoned seemed to be slightly different from the Son of Heaven's Sword she had seen before. The destroyed corpse worms didn't recover and had turned into strange beads. Could it be that they were killed …
Shu Longxi was dumbfounded. What was going on? Someone could actually kill the corpse worms?
If Shu Longxi hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she definitely wouldn't have believed that the corpse worms could be killed. These corpse worms couldn't be killed even in the domain of an Eight Sun Realm expert. Even if they entered the Divine Kingdom of a Demigod, they could only be sealed and not killed. However, this somewhat ferocious-looking, nameless summoner beside her actually killed the corpse worms?
The mountain-like coffin behind the two of them seemed to have sensed something at this moment. As though it had been awakened, the pale 'foundation' word began to glow …
