Chapter 1389
"Yang Yongxing is worried that we will take the chance to steal the other treasures and escape when he is distracted dealing with the old Black Tortoise and the worm king. That's why he is doing this."
Gu Chen said coldly. He could roughly understand Dharmaraja Yang's thoughts.
However, this was really stupid. The team was originally full of vigor. Now that they saw the treasures, all sorts of chaos would occur.
Gu Chen wanted to fish in troubled waters, but it was not a good thing for the team to be in chaos before they even saw the worm king.
Many cultivators attacked the caves, and soon, the worms in the valley were further enraged. The battle between the two sides became all-out and intense.
Dharmaraja Yang did not move forward. He was conserving his energy for the first herb.
"Daoist Chen, what do you think is the situation between the old Black Tortoise and the worm king?"
Dharmaraja Yang asked indifferently when he saw that Gu Chen and the others did not attack the caves.
"They were in a stalemate before, but from the looks of it, the old Black Tortoise might have lost," Gu Chen said expressionlessly.
"Oh? The old Black Tortoise's true body is at the ninth Sky of Dao Pursuing Realm, but the worm king can still suppress him. What do you think is the worm king's condition? "Dharmaraja Yang asked again.
"The worm king might be heavily injured. Otherwise, it would have shown up when we were robbing its treasury." Gu Chen made up a story.
Dharmaraja Yang's mind started to work. If the worm king was really injured, wasn't this the best time to snatch the first herb?
"In that case, now is the best time to kill the worm king and snatch the first herb. Daoist Chen, don't you want to scout ahead?"
Dharmaraja Yang wanted to rush deeper, but he was afraid that he would fall into Gu Chen's trap, so he said this on purpose.
"Let me go first. Isn't Dharmaraja Yang afraid that I will snatch the first herb?"
Gu Chen heard this and revealed a meaningful expression.
Dharmaraja Yang's expression suddenly became interesting.
"If Dharmaraja Yang is willing, we can scout ahead."
Gu Chen exchanged glances with his three companions and took a step forward.
"Let's wait until we take down this place before advancing with the rest of the team!"
Yang Fawang hurriedly tried to dissuade him. Gu Chen had hit his soft spot. He was indeed worried that the first herb would be snatched away by him.
In the previous battle of speed, he was well aware that his opponent's speed was not inferior to his. If he really managed to snatch the First Herb and escape, it would not be easy to catch him.
It was the safest way to tie these people to the main team. In the face of absolute advantage, no one would dare to play any tricks.
"That's good too. I don't know if there are other ambushes in the depths, and I don't want to be a pathfinder."
Gu Chen chuckled. He had expected that Dharmaraja Yang would never let him lead the way.
He turned and walked down the ravine through which he had come.
"What are you trying to do?" Dharma King Yang furrowed his brows.
"I'm still a little worried. Let's make sure that the insect swarm in front has been annihilated to prevent a pincer attack."
Gu Chen said casually. Fatty Qian, Chu Meixin and Qi Family's Xuan Zu followed behind him.
Dharmaraja Yang heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that he didn't stop them.
What else was there except for corpses on the ground?
The fact that the other party didn't fight for the First Herb in the deepest part of the treasury made him feel more at ease.
Gu Chen's group of four moved away from the main team. The number of insects around them became fewer, and the pressure was naturally reduced.
"Why are we going back?" Chu Meixin caught up with Gu Chen and asked in confusion.
She was worried about Granny Shu, and according to the agreement with the Head Spirit, when they attacked the deepest part, it would also attack at the same time.
That would be the best time to save Granny Shu, and Chu Meixin didn't want to fall behind.
"Don't worry, Dharmaraja Yang doesn't plan to attack in the short term. Let's retreat a little so he can be more at ease."
Gu Chen answered casually, his eyes glancing into the distance.
In the distance, the ground was covered with the bodies of silver beetles, and around them, gorgeous butterflies had gathered, opening their mouths and eating.
The Demonic Sky-Devouring Butterflies weren't summoned by Gu Chen. They must have smelled the blood and came over.
The number of insects in this secret land was huge, and they were individually stronger than the Demonic Sky-Devouring Butterflies. Usually, it would be difficult for the butterflies to eat them.
But it was different now. The greatest chaos in the entire secret land was happening. With the large number of insect corpses left behind by the hundreds of Dao Querying cultivators, the feast of the butterflies was coming.
"Roar —"
As Gu Chen and the others were talking, a deafening roar came from the end of the valley!
The Kui Cow and the Rock Snake King's huge figures appeared at the end of the valley. One shook the earth when it walked, while the other slid. Everywhere it passed, rocks fell!
"The old turtle is coming out." Gu Chen's eyes lit up.
A large group of people had charged into the insect nest and killed countless insects. The insect king couldn't be indifferent.
But the insect king had to guard the Chaotic Golden Lightning Bamboo at all times to prevent the Head Spirit from stealing it. Therefore, it could only send its most capable subordinates.
And the old Black Tortoise was undoubtedly his strongest general. It was only natural for him to come out at this time!
Dharma King Yang's target was the chief herb, so he wouldn't spend too much effort on the old Black Tortoise. Gu Chen planned to take advantage of the chaos to steal the old Black Tortoise and force him to hand over the Realm Crossing Talisman!
The huge shadows of the Kui Cow and the Rock Snake King covered the entire valley. Dharma King Yang narrowed his eyes.
The cultivators and insect swarms that were fighting around the caves seemed to have quietened down.
In the middle of the two huge beasts, an extremely short figure walked out from the deepest part.
He looked very human. His face was devilishly handsome, but his skin was silver and shone like a mirror.
His body was filled with streamlined muscles, and a silver tail swayed behind him!
"Insect King?"
Gu Chen was surprised. He thought it would be the old Black Tortoise. He didn't expect the insect king to come in person!
He left the nest just like that. Wasn't he afraid that the head spirit would steal the Chaotic Golden Lightning Bamboo?
He was here, but where was the old Black Tortoise?
While Gu Chen was puzzled, Dharma King Yang was already facing off against the insect king.
"You are the king of this insect race? Do you know Lei County? "
Dharma King Yang spoke. He tried to subdue this beast with his aura.
The insect king glanced at Dharma King Yang coldly. Then, it looked at the many cultivators outside the cave who were trying to attack. Two beams of demonic light shot out from its eyes!
Rumble.
Everywhere the demonic light passed, the space shattered. Almost in an instant, the demonic light covered more than ten Dao Querying Realm cultivators!
This beam of light was so fast that no one could react. By the time they reacted, the densely packed figures outside the cave had already disappeared!
Under the demonic light, more than ten Dao Querying Realm cultivators disappeared from the face of the earth. They had no chance to resist!
"Lowly and foolish race, is this a place where you can enter?"
