From time to time, human wails would ring out from the underground ruins. Those were the desperate cries of people dying after being bitten by the black beetles and the poison spreading rapidly.
Even a C-class expert's armor was not completely safe. There were too many beetles, and there would come a time when even a C-class expert would run out of energy.
As a last resort, the B-class experts of the various organizations would occasionally need to stand at the front and temporarily shelter the members of their organizations.
The experts were not cold-blooded animals that completely ignored casualties. Moreover, if all of his followers were killed after entering the ruins once, who in the organization would dare to follow him in the future?
They were not fools. They would definitely be more willing to follow those experts who could occasionally protect them. Otherwise, what was the point of following experts?
A B-class expert's attack was world-shaking. Howard concentrated and attacked with all his might. Right now, he was enveloped in flames amidst the insect tide. The flames suddenly turned from red to white, blazing with unparalleled intensity. Countless black beetles that got close to Howard were melted by the high temperature before they could even get close to him. A transparent liquid was formed from the heat on the ground.
The dozen or so fire phoenixes that Howard had summoned actually merged into one. The huge fire phoenix had a wingspan of five to six meters. With a flap of its flaming wings, a huge patch of the insect tide that had been attacking frantically was set ablaze.
"Even a B-class expert is so world-shaking. What kind of scene would it be if an A-class expert were to go all out?"
"The glory of the ancient myths might very well reappear in the future. Could this be the return of the gods?"
"No, this is the creation of a new myth. All of us are in it …"
"Eh, look at the downstream side. Someone is actually holding back all the insect tide by himself! Could this be a hidden A-class expert? "
A loose cultivator recognized that golden light in the insect tide and said with a complicated expression, "It's not A-class. It's an expert with a twisted mind. He likes to watch us dig …"
The loose cultivator at the side was startled. What kind of hobby was this?
Although Lü Shu was holding back the insect tide, his killing speed could not be compared to the various organizations on the other side. Time passed slowly, and the insect tide upstream was actually starting to decrease. Meanwhile, there were still countless insects piled up at Lü Shu's side, forming a black mass …
The volume of the divine water that he controlled had increased by nearly one fold. The current Lü Shu was already a master of the bathhouse level!
Seeing that the pressure from upstream was no longer as great, some of the organizations turned around and headed downstream to help. That expert from the Oath organization had a cold expression on his face as he similarly followed the other organizations and headed downstream. However, what he wanted to do was not to clear the insect swarm but to kill Lü Shu!
Since he knew that a member of his organization had died because of Lü Shu, he had to take revenge!
The best time to strike was when they were in the ruins. Once they got out, he really would not dare to make a move. At this moment, seeing that Lü Shu was trapped, the experts from the Oath Organization understood that their best chance had arrived. After all, the other party was trapped by the bug tide, so how would he have the time to pay attention to whether there was a sneak attack?
The expert from the Oath Organization was very cautious. He knew very well that Lü Shu could defeat the fallen Noji Yuushin. Even if Noji Yuushin was in a weakened state, Lü Shu was at least an elite among the peak C-class experts. It was not that the expert from the Oath Organization could not defeat him, but there was still Li Yixiao by Lü Shu's side. He had to choose the safest opportunity.
Howard said coldly and arrogantly from upstream, "The Phoenix Association can defend the upper reaches by themselves. You guys go help the lower reaches."
The loose cultivators looked at each other. They had long heard that the Phoenix Association was arrogant, but they did not expect the other party to be so confident.
An expert sneered. "Don't try to impress yourself. Don't blame others for your death. Come, let's go downstream."
With that, the expert led his men and rushed downstream.
At this moment, the cultivators rushing downstream from upstream surged. They all saw the golden light standing in the insect swarm.
Although the experts were unwilling to admit it, they knew in their hearts that the Tengra Earth Net had produced another monstrous genius!
Speaking of which, this was the first time the Tengra Earth Net had revealed to the world how strong the geniuses in the organization were. He was only a C-class, but he already had the means to hold back the insect tide!
The experts were thinking about how strong the foundation of the Tengra Earth Net was. Was this young genius a coincidence, or were there many such geniuses in the Tengra Earth Net?
However, the loose cultivators were different. They were shocked by the feat of one person holding back the insect tide, and suddenly felt a sense of heroism that cultivators should have!
The loose cultivators all had lofty aspirations in the era of the Spiritual Energy Revival, but now, they were all defeated by reality.
It seemed that most people would go through such a process. When they were young, they thought that they were the center of the world, and then someone told them: When they understood that they were not the main character, that was when they would mature.
But did people really need to compromise with the world?
Did they really have to polish off all their unique edges?
Many of the loose cultivators looked at the figure standing tall in the insect tide, and their hearts surged. "We'll help you kill the insect tide!"
Many people's blood seemed to be boiling, as if they had found their original hearts. That was youth and dreams without regrets.
Then, in the next moment, everyone heard someone roar in the golden light in the insect tide. "Don't come over, the insects are mine!"
"Negative emotion points from Li Yixiao, + 666!"
"Negative emotion points from Zhi Wei, + 666!"
"Pu Jinggao …"
"Demon …"
Their blood that had just heated up turned cold …
The image of a hero that they had just imagined collapsed …
"Can someone tell me what happened …" a loose cultivator asked in a daze.
"Maybe it's the strange personality of an expert …"
"Then are we still going to kill the insects?"
"We still have to kill them …"
All the cultivators were suddenly confused in the underground ruins, and they did not know what to do.
Although Lü Shu said that they should not kill the insects, the problem was that the insect tide blocked their way downstream!
The cultivators finally approached the insect tide, but at this moment, Lü Shu saw that this group of cultivators actually came to kill the insect tide, then turned around and ran away with the insect tide …
Ran away …
The group of cultivators was dumbfounded. You f * cking ran away with the insect tide?!
"Negative emotion points from Li Yixiao, + 666!"
"Negative emotion points from Zhi Wei, + 666!"
"Pu Jinggao …"
"Demon …"
We just want to kill the insects, do you have to do this?!
Why, these insects are raised by you, so you feel bad killing them?
Everyone was confused as they looked at the insect tide getting further and further away from them. "What do we do now, chase after them?"
"To be honest, I don't know what to do either …"
Zhi Wei said in the crowd with a pained expression, "I really underestimated how greedy he is …"
