Chapter 1394

Without much time to think, Gu Chen quickly recovered to his peak state with the help of the flower petals.

The danger was not over yet. He had only escaped the insect king's calamity. There was still a long way to go if he wanted to leave this secret place alive!

After a while, Gu Chen finally recovered to his peak state. He stood up and slashed the Desolate Emperor Sword in his hand!

Clang!

The sword light spread out in all directions. All the silver beetles that came into contact with it lost their vitality and fell to the ground!

"Go, enter the nest!"

Gu Chen raised his sword and rushed into the depths of the nest!

Chu Meixin had long been concerned about Granny Shu's safety. She followed behind without hesitation.

Fatty Qian braced himself and followed. Ancestor Xuan also followed closely.

If they wanted to leave this place alive, they had to capture Old Black Tortoise. No matter how terrifying the insect king was, they had to go!

The four of them were facing a small number of insects. As they broke through the encirclement, they quickly approached the depths of the nest.

Yang Fawang saw from afar that Gu Chen's group of four had disappeared into the canyon without hesitation. He had more confidence in his previous judgment.

The insect king had already displayed such great strength, but the four of them still rushed in without hesitation. What did this mean?

It meant that they still had a chance!

Thinking of the strange whistling sound coming from the nest, Yang Fawang guessed that the four of them had helpers behind them!

It was the existence of that helper that gave the four of them the determination to charge into the depths!

"If there was an expert restraining the insect king, these four fellows might be able to take the opportunity to snatch the first herb and escape."

"Damn it, they actually used all of us as cannon fodder!"

Yang Fawang realized that his group had successfully attracted the insect king's firepower, creating an opportunity for the four of them.

It was likely that they had concealed important information from the start, including the insect king's strength and the fact that they had other helpers!

The more Yang Fawang thought about it, the more he gritted his teeth. He had been forced into a corner. No matter what, he had to snatch that Chaotic Golden Lightning Bamboo.

"If you want to fish in troubled waters, I can do the same!"

Yang Fawang's hair stood on end again. Lightning crackled around his body.

Lightning Speed!

He left the group at an extreme speed. The insect swarm could not catch up at all. He also jumped into the depths of the canyon!

"Where's Yang Fawang? Where did it go? "

The cultivators who were left behind were filled with fear and their hearts sank to rock bottom as they looked at the dense swarm of insects around them!

Gu Chen and the other three rushed into the Worm King's lair. Once inside, they saw that there were spatial cracks everywhere, and the terrifying energy fluctuations were endless!

Above the strange space where the Chaotic Golden Lightning Bamboo was hidden, an illusory Soul Spirit was roaring incessantly as it battled the Insect King.

Once it spoke, the various elemental energies in the world evolved into countless Taoist techniques under its summons. However, when these Taoist techniques encountered the Worm King, it was like a blizzard crashing into a giant mountain, vanishing into thin air.

Not long after the Worm King returned, it had already gained the upper hand. It was tearing apart the head spirit's soul body at an extremely fast speed. It was extremely powerful!

This was different from the evenly matched situation that Gu Chen and the other three had imagined. Their eyelids twitched.

"The Head Spirit can't defeat the Worm King? That's not good. Our bets are all on it! "Fatty Qian said worriedly.

Gu Chen's eyes were solemn. Before the Worm King left, it had said something that made him realize what was going on.

He had thought that they were working together with the Head Spirit to plot against the Worm King, but in reality, the Worm King was also plotting against the Head Spirit.

He had deliberately left the lair because he was afraid that the Head Spirit would be afraid of him and not dare to show himself.

One had to know that with the Head Spirit's strength, even if it revealed a small flaw, it could snatch the Head Spirit in an extremely short period of time. However, the Worm King was not worried at all. What did this mean?

It meant that he thought that his strength was far above the Head Spirit's, and he had already made full preparations to capture the Head Spirit this time!

His target from the very beginning had been the Head Spirit, and the Chaotic Golden Lightning Bamboo was just a bait that he had used to lure the Head Spirit out!

Gu Chen activated the Deep Sea Purple Eyes, and the battle of the world's number one became even clearer in his eyes.

The Head Spirit's soul body was surrounded by a unique aura. That was the power of the Old Black Tortoise's Slow Source.

Gu Chen traced back to the source and looked down. He found that at the entrance of that strange space, the Old Black Tortoise was lying there. The Power of Slow Source in its body was constantly flowing out, connecting the space in all directions to form a formation.

No wonder the Worm King had schemed to subdue the Old Black Tortoise. It turned out that it wanted to borrow the power of the Slow Source!

In the past, the Head Spirit had probably tried to snatch the Head Spirit many times. Although the Worm King had protected the Head Spirit, it had never been able to catch the Head Spirit.

The stalemate between the two sides had changed after the outsiders had invaded the secret land. The Worm King had realized the value of the Old Black Tortoise, so it had schemed to subdue it!

And its scheme had succeeded. The Head Spirit had indeed fallen into the trap. Before it could snatch the Chaotic Golden Lightning Bamboo, it had been trapped in the Old Black Tortoise's formation!

With the strangeness of the Old Black Tortoise's Slow Source, the Head Spirit was like falling into a swamp. It could not easily escape. Today, the Worm King had hope of subduing it!

Gu Chen understood the whole situation in an extremely short period of time. The Head Spirit was obviously no match for the Worm King. If it lost this battle, all of them would be finished!

Gu Chen looked at the Old Black Tortoise who was guarding the Chaotic Golden Lightning Bamboo. If he killed the Old Black Tortoise, this formation could be broken, and the Head Spirit's restraints could be relieved a little.

However, the Head Spirit had probably fought with the Worm King many times. If it knew that it still couldn't defeat the Worm King, would it just run away?

Gu Chen was in a dilemma. He hesitated whether he should immediately help kill the Old Black Tortoise.

At this moment, Chu Meixin saw an old woman lying not far away from the Old Black Tortoise. Excitement surfaced in her eyes.

"Granny Shu!"

She disregarded the danger and immediately rushed forward!

The Head Spirit had already left Granny Shu's body. Now was the best time to save her.

Chu Meixin rushed forward alone. Before Gu Chen could react, thunder boomed behind him.

"The Chaotic Golden Lightning Bamboo really does exist!"

Dharmaraja Yang, who had followed her in, saw the Chaotic Golden Lightning Bamboo in the strange space. He also saw that the Worm King was fighting and had no time to care about anything else. He immediately rushed forward!

From his point of view, it was a competition of speed. Whoever was faster and could grab the Chaotic Golden Lightning Bamboo and escape would be the winner!

Dharmaraja Yang had godly speed, so he rushed over before Chu Meixin. The Old Black Tortoise noticed him immediately.

"What an idiot. Even at this time, he is still blinded by greed."

The Old Black Tortoise let out a dragon roar. He stomped his front foot on the ground, and a strange Slow energy rippled out!

Dharmaraja Yang's speed was greatly reduced under the Lightning Speed state. However, his face was ferocious. Every pore on his body was soaked with lightning, and all the potential in his body was stimulated!

"You old tortoise, stop being a hindrance!"
