"Milord, all the Dragonbeasts have been mobilized. We're currently moving them into the depths of the pit as planned."
One of the guardians of the Origin Immortal Treasury suddenly said.
Although they had not ventured deep into the ground, they seemed to know everything that had happened to Wang Chong's group.
"No matter what, we have to break them up. We can't let them work together. The Dragonbeasts alone won't be enough. It's about time. Pass on my order! Release those things in the pit! "
At this moment, the leader of the Guardians suddenly spoke. His eyes were emotionless as he stared into the pitch-black pit.
"Yes!"
… …
From the surface of the pit all the way down through a distance of 16,000 to 17,000 meters, following the order of the leader, an invisible ripple spread out from the bottom of the pitch-dark pit.
The pit was quiet, without the slightest ripple of energy.
After what seemed like both a second and like countless eons, there was a flash of light. A weak light like a firefly slowly flew out of the darkness.
After flying several hundred meters, it seemed like it had been startled awake from a dream. The weak light suddenly blazed, and in the blink of an eye, it shone brightly. Then, its speed increased, and like a meteor, it entered the huge underground cave.
… …
In the cavern, Wang Chong had concealed his aura as much as possible as he fled. Screams could be heard from behind him as all the martial artists in the rear were slaughtered.
Wang Chong's entire body tensed up as an intense sense of danger washed over him like a massive wave.
Wang Chong's greatest reliance was the Energy Condensation Pearl in his body, but no matter how much energy the pearl stored, it would quickly vanish under the attacks of the three Dragonbeasts.
Once that happened, only death would await Wang Chong.
Where is it? Just which direction should I run in!?
Wang Chong's eyes scanned the surroundings like lightning. In this underground cave, the network was everywhere, and it was easy to get lost. If one was not careful, he might even unknowingly send himself into the mouth of a giant beast.
Moreover, the Spiritual Restriction that was set up in the entire underground cavern rendered the Spiritual Power that Wang Chong was so proud of completely useless.
Under such circumstances, it was extremely difficult to determine the correct direction.
"I can only use sound as a substitute for spiritual force probing!"
Wang Chong thought to himself.
Mind power was a means of detection, and so was sound waves. It was just like how bats could use sound to locate themselves, but it was not as useful as mind power.
In the next moment, with a thought, Wang Chong heard all the sounds around him.
The roars of wild beasts, the blood-curdling screams of martial artists, the explosions of air waves, and the echoes from the thousands of caves. All of this was sent into Wang Chong's mind, and through his immense Psychic Energy, he was able to rearrange the information in his mind.
This was much slower than Wang Chong's formation model in the Origin Immortal Formation, but it was beginning to show its effects.
Wang Chong had originally been oblivious to this complex network, but now, with Wang Chong at the center, he was slowly drawing out the complex network of caves in Wang Chong's mind and spreading out.
Although he still couldn't explore the entire underground network, at least he wasn't blind anymore.
"Run! Run! "
"It's those bugs!"
"It's over! We're all going to die here! Ah! "
At this moment, a shrill scream suddenly came from an unexpected place.
Buzz!
Stunned, Wang Chong raised his head and saw that in another direction, another group of martial artists was rushing toward him, their faces stricken with fear.
Behind them, balls of golden light the size of fists floated in the air and chased after them like meteors chasing after the moon.
As these silver halos pursued them, Wang Chong immediately heard a familiar voice.
"Stellar-Piercing Beetles!"
Wang Chong's body trembled as he immediately recognized these terrifying beetles that, like the Dragonbeasts, possessed the ability to pierce through Stellar-Piercing Beetles.
Many top-class experts had died to these Stellar-Piercing Beetles in the Origin Immortal Formation. Wang Chong had never imagined that he would run into them again in these dark caves.
But unlike the Origin Immortal Formation, these Stellar-Piercing Beetles were larger, stronger, and more aggressive.
When it rains, it pours. The three Dragonbeasts had already put all the martial artists underground in grave danger, and now these nightmarish Stellar-Piercing Beetles had appeared. Even Wang Chong couldn't help but widen his eyes and feel his heart go numb as he sensed the aura of death that he had never felt before.
Three Dragonbeasts and a horde of high-level Stellar-Piercing Beetles. No martial artist could possibly survive such an attack.
Roooar!
Wang Chong's heart tightened, and he immediately used a movement technique to charge deeper into the caves.
Without the Heavenly Mandate Battle Armor, not even Wang Chong could stop these beetles.
"Buzz!"
One cavern, two caverns … Countless caverns lit up with fire. Thousands of Stellar-Piercing Beetles appeared in these caves and began to charge toward Wang Chong's group.
Roooar! At almost the same time, the Dragonbeasts roared as the other three Dragonbeasts appeared in the caves behind them.
Together with the Stellar-Piercing Beetles, they hunted down all the martial artists in the caves.
Danger followed them like a shadow. All the martial artists at the back were caught up by the Dragonbeasts and Stellar-Piercing Beetles and killed one by one. The screams of death were so shrill that it made one's hair stand on end.
As Wang Chong fled, he was constantly paying attention to his surroundings and the cave. In this sort of situation, Wang Chong did not dare to be careless in the slightest.
"Something's wrong!"
Wang Chong's body trembled as a thought flashed through his mind. After some time, he sensed that something was very wrong with these Dragonbeasts and Stellar-Piercing Beetles.
"These creatures don't seem to be trying to kill, but to drive them away!"
The Dragonbeasts and Stellar-Piercing Beetles would never be so restrained as to only chase down the martial artists at the back!
The Stellar-Piercing Beetles were one thing, but Wang Chong had personally experienced the speed of the Dragonbeasts. Not many martial artists could match their speed.
And these Dragonbeasts had never charged into the crowd to begin a massacre. Their intention to drive them away was far more obvious than to kill them.
"It's those people hiding behind the curtains!"
Wang Chong's mind trembled as he recalled the mysterious faction controlling the formation in an attempt to exterminate all the martial artists in the Origin Immortal Formation.
Even with the power of the Dragonbeasts and Stellar-Piercing Beetles, they had still been able to control them. This was clearly not because they were soft-hearted, but because they had a greater plan.
As this thought passed through his mind, Wang Chong immediately sensed an even greater danger. But in the short time available, not even someone of Wang Chong's abilities could find a good solution.
"Aaaah!"
As he fled, he suddenly felt a stabbing pain in his abdomen, and the Stellar Energy in Wang Chong's body fell into disarray.
"Not good! I've used up too much Stellar Energy, and my meridians are starting to fall into disorder. "
Wang Chong staggered and almost fell to the ground. Wang Chong's cultivation defect had still not been cured, and the appearance of the Energy Condensation Pearl had only managed to alleviate the injuries in his body. It had not been able to treat the root of the problem.
The continuous battles with the Black Yin Ancestor and the others, and the use of the Great Yin Yang Art and Great Destruction Art had placed a heavy burden on Wang Chong's already disordered meridians.
Although Wang Chong had long ago known that if he did not find the Origin Immortal Art and resolve the root of the problem, his cultivation defect would only worsen, Wang Chong had never imagined that it would come so quickly.
Moreover, it happened at such a critical time.
"Damn it! Why did it have to happen now! "
Wang Chong's face was ghastly pale, cold sweat pouring down his forehead, and he couldn't help but slow down.
But in this short period of time, not only did the pain in his abdomen not lessen, it seemed to grow more and more intense. Even worse was that under the effects of the chaotic energy, the more important Governing and Conception Meridians in his body were beginning to twitch.
But this was not the end. As Wang Chong slowed down, a savage roar came from overhead.
At some point, an enormous figure had bypassed the martial artists and emerged from one of the caves, appearing twenty to thirty meters in front of Wang Chong.
Its scarlet eyes were blinding as it stared at the weakened martial artist Wang Chong.
Wang Chong grimaced and his heart sank.
Blessings never came in pairs, and Wang Chong had never imagined that he would be targeted by a Dragonbeast at a time like this.
Swish!
At that moment, time seemed to have stopped. It was as if only Wang Chong and the six to seven-meter tall Dragonbeast were left in the world. The brutal ancient beast glared at Wang Chong. Wang Chong could even see it sneeze at him, and two wisps of hot smoke came out of its nostrils.
Buzz!
At that moment, Wang Chong saw the Dragonbeast move its claws slightly, and its originally loose muscles suddenly tightened. In an instant, the sense of crisis in Wang Chong's heart quickly intensified.
Life and death were decided in an instant!
Boom!
The earth shook. At that moment, the huge Dragonbeast stomped its feet heavily, and in an instant, it disappeared on the spot like a phantom.
At the same time, Wang Chong smelled a suffocating, terrifying aura of death.
