Chapter 1249: Behind the Bug
Xiang Shaoyun was aware that a great danger was hiding in the cave, but he had not imagined that he would be discovered. The incoming poison was incredibly powerful and wasn\'t something an ordinary devilsand bug could release. Despite his speedy reaction, he was still struck, causing his mind to go fuzzy. An ear-piercing screech rang out from the cave, driving all the nearby devilsand bugs crazy. They swarmed Xiang Shaoyun.
Apart from the devilsand bugs, something else also came out of the cave. It was a devilsand bug much bigger than the other bugs. To be precise, it was a devilsand queen, the mother of all these devilsand bugs, an existence with terrifying strength. Its eyes had evolved to the point where it could see Xiang Shaoyun even when he was using his talent of invisibility.
The devilsand queen was almost a Devil Saint in terms of cultivation level. However, its powerful defense and incredible speed granted it a combat strength comparable to an actual Devil Saint\'s.
Xiang Shaoyun knew things were turning for the worse the moment the poison struck him. He hurriedly used Yun Flame and wrapped his entire body with flame. At the same time, he also started expelling the poison from his body. All the devilsand bugs pouncing on him were forced to stop as they didn\'t dare to approach him with all the flame around him.
However, that didn\'t mean that the bugs would give up on attacking him. They constantly spewed thick venom, sealing all his escape routes. Some of the bugs were even fearless enough to dive into the flame, and they bit at him.
Because Xiang Shaoyun had provoked their queen, all the bugs were furious. Facing the relentless assault, Xiang Shaoyun utilized the profundity of flame and increased the intensity of the flame around him. He jabbed at the devilsand bugs, sending beams of flame toward their weak points. His swift attack instantly killed over 10 bugs.
However, that was not enough to stop them. Countless bugs continued swarming him. The devilsand queen was the scariest of all, as it was actually spewing devilsand out of its mouth. A chunk of devilsand wrapped in venom shot toward Xiang Shaoyun.
Xiang Shaoyun was struck before he could even put up any defenses. An intense pain assaulted him. If it wasn\'t for his tough body, the strike would have heavily injured him. The poison accompanying the devilsand was also incredibly powerful. It nearly reached his inner organs.
With so many bugs trying to overwhelm him with sheer numbers, he was forced to utilize his lightning bone. Instantly, a burst of lightning energy erupted from his body and blasted all the bugs away.
The queen was the only bug that could withstand the lightning. It finally reached Xiang Shaoyun and bit his waist, piercing his skin with its dreadful fangs. Terrifying poison seeped into Xiang Shaoyun\'s body, causing him to wail in pain.
"Piss off!!" Xiang Shaoyun roared as he attempted to slam the queen\'s weak point with his palm.
The queen nimbly dodged the attack, then bit Xiang Shaoyun again. Xiang Shaoyun was infuriated and thought to himself, Since all these bugs have been alarmed, I might as well set my sights on those top-quality devilsand chunks.
He released his Nether Soul Domain and trapped all the bugs around him inside it. He was the supreme master within his domain. Countless chains shot out from all directions and assaulted the bugs. Not even their poison could corrode the domain.
Whoosh!
The bugs were completely helpless, killed one after another. As for the queen, it panicked the moment it entered the domain. It knew which clan this ability belonged to. The mere thought of that clan gave it boundless fear. It tried its best to escape, but Xiang Shaoyun naturally wouldn\'t allow it to escape.
Numerous chains shot out and wrapped around the queen, rendering it completely helpless as Xiang Shaoyun slaughtered it. Even a Saint would have to put in a lot of effort to defeat a devilsand queen. But in Xiang Shaoyun\'s Nether Soul Domain, the queen was completely helpless.
After killing all the bugs around him, Xiang Shaoyun rushed toward the top-quality devilsand chunks. Countless devilsand bugs went mad, but they were helpless against his invisibility and Nether Soul Domain.
Meanwhile, Devil Concubine and Yu Caidie had entered the devilsand bug territory, as they were too worried about Xiang Shaoyun. Yu Ziyang did not want to go with them, but he was worried about Yu Caidie, so he eventually decided to join them.
As they didn\'t know the bugs\' weakness, they had to face the bugs with brute force. If it wasn\'t for the saint weapons they wielded, they wouldn\'t be able to even kill these bugs. The endless swarm of bugs was extremely difficult to defend against.
Just as they were about to sustain serious injuries, Xiang Shaoyun returned and shouted, "Leave! I\'m fine!"
He then used the Nether Soul Domain again, trapping numerous bugs. The two naturally retreated upon hearing that he was safe. Yu Ziyang was still confused to see the bugs disappearing into thin air, but when he saw the two retreating, he hurriedly followed them. Shortly after, they left the devilsand bug territory.
Xiang Shaoyun reappeared before their eyes. However, he didn\'t look too well. The bite wound from the queen was too terrifying. It contained the queen\'s years of venom accumulation and was at a level no ordinary devilsand bugs could compare with. If it wasn\'t for Yun Flame, the poison would have already invaded his heart and killed him.
"Overlord, are you fine?" asked Devil Concubine in a worried manner.
"He\'s poisoned. Let me help him with it," said Yu Caidie.
Xiang Shaoyun\'s face was turning black. He said, "No, just stand guard for me. I\'ll deal with the poison myself."
Then, a raging flame lit up on his body and converged around his wounds, trying to burn away all the poison. The poison might be powerful, but if he focused on it with the power of Yun Flame, he could still fully clear all of it. He looked like a human torch with his entire body set aflame. Very few people could afford to set themselves on fire just to expel some poison.
But it wasn\'t surprising for Xiang Shaoyun to do it since he had already burned himself several times during his cultivation. While he was healing up, a shadow approached them undetected. The so-called shadow was actually someone with the same invisibility ability Xiang Shaoyun had. Not even the two women and Yu Ziyang noticed its approach.
