Chapter 823: 823
It had gone dark in the cave after all of the Silver Beetles had left, but the Flame Star’s blade light once again lit up the whole cave .
White, crimson, and green spots shone within the dazzling blade light as it slashed directly towards Fang Yingying .
However, not a shred of fear could be seen in Fang Yingying’s eyes .
Her slender hands rapidly wove before her ample chest, forming a silver hand seal .
The vague shape of a centipede loomed in the depths of the hand seal .
RUMBLE!
The silver hand seal sudden shot up and slammed into the three-colored blade light with great force .
The blade light exploded in an instant, but the Flame Star continued to descend towards Fang Yingying’s head with irresistible momentum .
Fang Yingying’s figure blurred and disappeared from her current location . Then, a silver net suddenly appeared over Nie Tian’s head out of thin air .
The net also emanated silver light, but it seemed to be forged from Silicon Silver, which made it as light as feather .
BZZZ! BZZZ!
The Flame Star suddenly went back up, unleashing numerous blade lights in an attempt to rip the silver net .
However, not a single one of the net’s tenacious strings was severed, but a bleak aura came towards Nie Tian with an overwhelming momentum, as if to bind him .
Almost at the same time, Yin Yanan also made a move .
By relying on the Beast-controlling Sect’s special body refinement incantation she practiced, she dashed towards Luo Hui like a fierce beast from the Desolate Antiquity Era, and arrived before him in the blink of an eye .
A hint of astonishment flashed across Luo Hui’s eyes as he finally saw her shocking fleshly strength .
He, who had a waxen, emaciated face and looked rather sickly, suddenly cast a profound movement magic, allowing him to flash to different locations within the cave, leaving one illusory figure after another .
Soon, Yin Yanan lost track of the real Luo Hui . All she could see were his illusory figures .
While Yin Yanan was at a loss, Luo Hui’s illusory figures suddenly morphed into numerous spirit vermin .
Among them were golden spiders, brown scorpions, and green snakes .
Even though none of them were particularly large, they gave Yin Yanan a feeling that they were actually very dangerous .
The spirit vermin instantly surrounded Yin Yanan, and started to spew smoke towards her .
The smoke seemed intangible, but was formed by countless soul strands . Yin Yanan’s spiritual power ward didn’t have the slightest warding effect against it .
As the smoke engulfed her, her vigorous body seemed to be poisoned by deadly toxins, making her feel powerless .
The smoke even infiltrated her mind, as she felt stabbing pain in her sea of awareness .
At this moment, Luo Hui revealed himself, a real spirit vermin appearing by his feet .
It was a large, golden spider with eight legs, which seemed to be forged from pure gold .
Golden flames could be seen burning within the spider’s beady eyes .
It first took a look at Yin Yanan, and didn’t seem impressed .
However, as it laid its eyes on the Frost Blood Python that was coiled beside Yin Yanan, astonishment suddenly filled its golden eyes .
Luo Hui sensed the anomaly, so with a grim expression, he asked, “What’s . . . ”
Before he could finish, the spider took a step forward to stand before Luo Hui like his shield .
At this moment, the eighth grade Frost Blood Python couldn’t bear to watch Yin Yanan struggle any further, and finally struck .
FIZZ! FIZZ!
A frosty, white mist rose from the Frost Blood Python, rapidly pervading the area around Yin Yanan .
As the exploding sounds of ice shards came from within the frosty, white mist, the temperature inside the cave dropped at an alarming speed .
Within seconds, the cave walls were covered in thick, sparkling ice . Even the stone protrusions that contained Silicon Silver were covered in ice, making them look like huge icicles .
Submerged in the frosty most, Yin Yanan snapped back to her senses, and rapidly cleansed herself with her flesh aura . She resumed her calm and composed look after forcing all of the spirit vermin smoke out of her .
With a meaningful faint smile, she stared at Luo Hui .
CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!
Loud cracks echoed out within the spacious cave as the eighth grade Frost Blood Python used its unique bloodline magic to turn it into a land of frigid coldness . Even snow and wind appeared within its frosty mist .
All of a sudden, countless ice shards shot out of the frosty mist, and the cracking ice that covered the cave walls .
Like sharp blades, the ice shards shot towards Luo Hui, forming a special field that could freeze all things .
Clusters of golden flames shot out of the spider’s eyes, forming a sea of flames in front of Luo Hui .
BANG! BANG! BANG!
Ice shards shot into the sea of golden flames, causing the cave to shake violently . Even the stone protrusions that contained Silicon Silver seemed as if they could fall at any moment .
The clashes sent out golden sparks and bits of ice that added countless tiny holes to the walls of the spacious cave .
Nie Tian and Fang Yingying, who were about to enter a second round, gasped with astonishment upon seeing this .
It seemed that even the cave couldn’t withstand the eighth grade Frost Blood Python’s devastating bloodline power, and was going to collapse .
Luo Hui took a deep breath . Eyes still fixed on the Frost Blood Python, he shouted, “All of the Silicon Silver here is yours!”
With these words, he instantly jumped onto his golden spider .
Then, like a bolt of lightning, the spider dashed to Fang Yingying’s side, where Luo Hui dragged the confused Fang Yingying away through the mother beetle’s tunnel .
“Nie Tian, you take care of that one from the Bliss Mountain Sect and collect the Silicon Silver here . ” With these words, Yin Yanan snorted disdainfully . “Now they know not to mess with us . It’s too late . ”
Then, she followed Luo Hui and Fang Yingying into the tunnel through which they had come down here .
She seemed to understand that this cave would hold the Frost Blood Python back from displaying its full bloodline power . Also, she was afraid that the stone protrusions would break and cost them the precious Silicon Silver inside of them .
The Frost Blood Python would be able to fight without scruples in the open terrain outside the Silver Beetle nest .
“You just collect these Silicon Silver protrusions . Don’t you worry about our battle against them . ” With these words, Nie Tian threw Mu Biqiong a glance and prepared to leave the cave .
However, he was stunned by what he saw . “Have . . . Have you recovered?”
At this moment, the mother beetle’s sharp screech had already vanished completely .
Earlier, the mother beetle’s screech had certainly caused serious damage to Mu Biqiong’s ears and even her soul .
However, he couldn’t see the slightest sign of her being injured in her eyes now .
The look in her eyes was surprisingly calm, and laced with a hint of indescribable danger .
“You think I’m a burden for the two of you, don’t you?” Mu Biqiong asked in an icy voice . “Even if you didn’t help me, that bitch Fang Yingying wouldn’t have been able to kill me . ”
Nie Tian chuckled and nodded . “Well, how about we leave that ‘bitch’ to you in a bit?”
Strong killing intent filled Mu Biqiong’s eyes . “That’d be great . ”
Nie Tian then ended their talk and left the cave through the tunnel .
As soon as he left, Mu Biqiong let out a cold harrumph, and two thick roots suddenly grew out of her palms .
One root was ink-black, and the other was multicolored . Like two pythons, they wrapped around two of the stone protrusions that contained Silicon Silver .
RUMBLE!
The thick roots tore the two huge stone protrusions off the ceiling of the cave and stuffed them into Mu Biqiong’s ring of holding .
Afterwards, the roots repeated the move, pulling the other stone protrusions off and putting them into her ring of holding .
At this moment, a vicious and mysterious look appeared on Mu Biqiong’s unearthly beautiful face, which was hidden behind a veil .
Moments later, she finished collecting all seven stone protrusions that contained Silicon Silver, and the roots shrank back into her palms .
As she harvested Silicon Silver with the demonic plant inside of her, the mother beetle’s panicked screech echoed from the depths of the hole it had escaped into .
However, it didn’t affect Mu Biqiong in the slightest this time .
She threw a cold look at the hole where the screech was coming from . A pitch-black root once again shot out of her palm into the hole that stretched down towards the depths of the earth .
The mother beetle’s sharp screech grew increasingly panicked as it hastily ran deeper into the hole, not daring to make a sound anymore .
The mother beetle had noticed the change of situation in the cave, and realized that a battle had broken out among the human invaders . Therefore, it had snuck back, lurking in the hole and waiting for an opportunity to strike .
However, it had dropped the idea and fled as soon as the black root had shot into the hole it was hiding in .
The demonic plant’s black root searched about in the hole, but failed to find the mother beetle, so Mu Biqiong withdrew it .
After the root shrank back into her, her eyes went icy again as she muttered in a low voice, “That bitch Fang Yingying . ”
SHEW!
She shot out of the tunnel like a bolt of lightning .
Outside the Silver Beetle nest, Yin Yanan was controlling the Frost Blood Python as it went all-out to attack Fang Yingying and Luo Hui despite their begging for peace .
Nie Tian was standing there and staring at Fang Yingying, as if he didn’t intend to join the battle .
Mu Biqiong’s arrival took Nie Tian by surprise . “Have you finished collecting all seven of the stone protrusions that contain Silicon Silver already?” he asked .
Mu Biqiong nodded . “Yeah . ”
Taken aback, Nie Tian said, “That was quick . ”
“That bitch will die even quicker . ” With these words, she flashed to Fang Yingying and shouted, “Die!”
A black root shot out of her left palm .
Fang Yingying’s face turned pale with fright as she stared blankly at her, as if she were looking at a freak .
Immediately afterwards, she snapped back to her senses and formed a series of silver hand seals in a panicked and muddled fashion . However, all of the hand seals failed to fend off the thick, black root .
The root wrapped around her slender waist and snapped her in half .
As Mu Biqiong had said, she killed Fang Yingying even faster than she had harvested the Silicon Silver protrusions .
A centipede flew out of Fang Yingying as she was snapped in half .
“Wanna run?!” Mu Biqiong called out in an icy voice .
The black root instantly morphed into a large claw . With a swift grabbing motion, it caught the centipede and squeezed it into mush .
Upon seeing this, Nie Tian’s expression flickered as he marveled at her battle prowess inwardly .
At this moment, he finally understood why the Bliss Mountain Sect and the Beast-controlling Sect had dared to send Mu Biqiong and Yin Yanan into the Shatter Battlefield .
Yin Yanan was not only as strong as an outsider, but also had an eighth grade Frost Blood Python at her command .
She was like a fierce beast with unmatched strength in the outermost ring of the Shatter Battlefield, where only Worldly realm and Profound realm cultivators would go .
As for Mu Biqiong, the demonic plant inside of her hadn’t seemed to obey her commands all the time before . She had even suffered a backlash from it when her veil had been torn off .
However, after it had received mysterious nourishment from the enormous vines in the Realm of Shattered Earth, she seemed to have found a way to harness the two demonic flowers . Now, she could even make use of their formidable might .
The black flower’s root had just shot out of her palm and snapped Fang Yingying, who had been jumping around for quite some time, in half like a an ant .
Mu Biqiong hadn’t even used the other flower yet .
Nie Tian sighed . “These two ferocious women . . . ”
