Chapter 449: 348: Instant Kill! Three Ghosts Join Forces!_2
Even behind her, the phantom of a gigantic tree appeared.
The tree reached a hundred feet high, lush and sprawling, covering thousands of miles, like a dome and also like a splendid canopy.
Almost at the same time, a cascade of light green raindrops fell from the sky, touching down upon the earth.
Tranquility!!!
The emerald light descended, and the previously suppressed Spirit Enchanting Dragon Vine immediately came to life.
Thick branches and leaves suddenly sprouted numerous mouths, greedily devouring the blood insects as the air filled with the nauseating sounds of chewing.
The tree phantom behind Cui Xiabing vibrated, and more green raindrops fell to the ground.
Once these raindrops touched the blood insects, they actually soaked into their bodies.
“Hmm? Such rich life energy, human, what are you doing?”
The Bug Woman said with a strange look in her eyes, “My blood worms are also alive, your life energy cannot kill them, it will only enhance their strength.”
“Giggle giggle… Human, you are doomed!”
“My children, devour her!”
At her command, the dense swarm of insects charged at her again.
But oddly enough, the previously swift blood worms now moved sluggishly.
Some, caught right in the center of the green light with massive amounts being absorbed into their bodies, struggled heavily, and many of the insects began to lie on the ground and fell into deep sleep.
The Bug Woman’s face changed immediately, she exclaimed in astonishment, “Poison… No? It’s sleep!”
“Such rich life energy actually puts my insects to sleep… Damn it!”
“Human, you are so despicable!”
She immediately took action, emitting a dense blood mist from her body, which infiltrated the blood worms around her.
“Blood Ghost Art·Insect Devouring·Insect Killing!”
Amidst the Bug Woman’s furious roar, the bodies of some insects that had already fallen asleep or were struggling began to tremble violently, then their forms burst apart.
Masses of flesh and blood mist poured out from within them, turning into blood snakes.
Under her control, they surged towards Cui Xiabing.
Regrettably, under the deluge of green light and raindrops, these blood snakes did not get far before being corroded by the green light and vanishing.
Even the few lucky blood colors that managed to crawl beside Cui Xiabing were devoured by the Spirit Enchanting Dragon Vine guarding her!
The Bug Woman’s face turned extremely ugly as she gritted her teeth, “These humans… what are their identities, how can they be so strong!”
“My Blood Ghost Art… It’s completely ineffective!”
She subconsciously turned back, only to discover that two of the Blood Ghost Beast Masters had already dissipated, fallen!
“Zhu He!”
“Chen Zhen!”
“How, how is this possible…”
“Boom boom boom…!”
Just then, a booming sound arose.
A golden fire figure was rapidly approaching, and the bloodworms surrounding him burned to ashes upon contact, unable to withstand even a moment’s resistance.
“Light, light energy? How is it so strong…!”
The Bug Woman exclaimed in shock, once again emitting waves of blood mist from her body, enveloping herself.
“Blood Ghost Art·Insect Devouring·Insect Armor!”
“Crack, crack, crack, crack…”
A grating sound echoed, and hordes of bloodworms rapidly flew towards her, quickly covering her entire body, forming a ghastly armor.
Behind her, a pair of bizarre wings also appeared.
Seeing Zheng Cheng approaching, she quickly reached out to grab him, and a claw made entirely of blood worms emerged from mid-air, smashing fiercely towards Zheng Cheng.
“Boom!”
The blood worm claw shattered, and countless blood worms screamed as they fled, but many more were incinerated by the Holy Light Fire and turned to ash.
“Zheng Cheng?”
On the ground, Cui Xiabing looked puzzled, what was he doing?
This Bug Woman, she could handle her by herself.
Just give her enough time…
“Boom!”
The next second, her pupils dilated.
She saw Zheng Cheng, shrouded in golden flames, close the distance between him and the Bug Woman in an extremely short time, landing a heavy slap on her.
“Sizzle…!”
The golden flames roared fiercely, and amid the screams, masses of Holy Light Fire splattered everywhere, engulfing the Bug Woman’s body.
Countless blood worms burst out, scattering and exploding in the Holy Light Fire mid-air, like fireworks.
Meanwhile, a figure also struggled to fly forward, bearing marks of the Holy Light Fire burn.
It was the Bug Woman!
At this moment, her figure was extremely embarrassed, with half of her body engulfed in the blazing Holy Light Fire.
Countless blood worms recklessly charged towards her to defend against the Holy Light Fire, only to be incinerated to ash immediately.
“Ice Demon! Save me! Save me, quickly!”
She suddenly screamed in agony, with one side burning while the other began emitting a dense fog of blood.
“Blood Ghost Art・Insect Devouring・The Sky Net!”
“Boom!”
The remaining blood worms exploded once again, turning into a thick blood mist, and at the same time forming countless fine threads from the mist.
On the ground and in mid-air, wherever the blood mist appeared, copious strands of blood formed into a sky net, surging towards Zheng Cheng!
“Boom!”
The Holy Light Fire exploded, and the incoming blood net ignited upon contact with the Holy Light Fire, getting burned away in an instant.
Still, more blood nets swept in, fighting for the last chance for the Bug Woman to escape with her life.
“Ice Demon, save me…!”
“Boom!”
A pale figure suddenly appeared in mid-air in front of the frantically fleeing Bug Woman, carrying an intensely cold aura.
He grabbed what was left of the Bug Woman’s body—only a third of it—then formed a blade of ice with one hand and brutally slashed down.
“Pff…!”
The blade swept through, instantly bisecting the Bug Woman’s body.
Most of her body, consumed by the Holy Light Fire, fell and turned to ash at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The other smaller part, however, was seized by this figure.
“Bug Woman, are you alright?”
Her flesh squirmed wildly, and the small remaining half of the Bug Woman’s body once again grew into a full figure, transforming back into a complete Bug Woman.
She looked exactly like she did before, only paler.
At this moment, full of fear, she said in a panic, “That human, he wields the purest Light Energy, he can truly kill us!”
“Zhu He and Chen Zhen—they’ve both already died by his hands!”
“What?”
The Ice Demon, the man holding the exquisite ice fan, exclaimed in surprise, only now realizing that there were just three of them left on the battlefield!
The Bug Woman, and the Ghost Princess currently competing with the distant poppy in a battle of psyche.
On the other side, Yao Zhixue also arrived beside Zheng Cheng, her face pale.
“Zhixue, are you okay?”
“I’m fine,” Yao Zhixue replied. “The strength of this Ice Demon is formidable, vaguely resonating with this world.”
“Domain? Epic?”
“No,” Yao Zhixue shook her head. “It’s not the power of a domain. It should be some sort of resonance with this secret realm, allowing him to master a part of the power of this world…”
“I see…”
Zheng Cheng had a sudden realization: “Like Captain Xu Qingfeng, is he just a step away from reaching the Epic level?”
“Possibly,” Yao Zhixue continued. “Besides him, there are two other individuals…”
No sooner had she spoken than the Ice Demon in the distance started to move.
He flung his ice fan into the sky as vast quantities of his blood essence surged out.
“Blood Ghost Art・Freeze Thousands of Miles!”
“Ghost Princess! Come quickly!”
“Crack, crack, crack…”
Accompanied by a series of harsh scraping sounds, large amounts of frost appeared on the earth, in the city walls, and even in the air spreading rapidly as far as the eye can see.
At the same time, copious amounts of cold air formed in the atmosphere, swirling and rushing towards Zheng Cheng and the others.
The other Blood Ghost Beast, Ghost Princess, also hurriedly disengaged from her fierce fight with the poppy and flew from her spot, arriving in front of the Ice Demon.
The three attacked together, advancing towards Zheng Cheng and his companions.
“Blood Ghost Art・Insect Devouring・A Thousand Blood Shadows!”
“Blood Ghost Art・Dance of the Ghost Princess・Lust Demon Illusion!”
The two women also took action one after another, and suddenly dense shadows of worms emerged from the void, turning into spots of light that slipped into the surrounding frost.
With the sweep of the frost, they attacked from every direction towards the group.
Meanwhile, within the frost, astonishingly, phantoms of seductive women appeared, naked and shameless.
They laughed lewdly, touching their own bodies without any modesty, enveloped by the frost, slowly sinking into it.
“Be careful!”
The voice of the poppy came through, “This Blood Ghost Beast master has the ability to influence spiritual emotions, don’t fall for her seduction!”
As she spoke, her eyes earnestly looked towards Zheng Cheng.
“Especially you.”
