Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan exchanged a glance.
This time, they did not stay here any longer.
As the recommendation letters on them burned,
They suddenly felt a strong suction force on their bodies.
They did not try to resist that power.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan felt their vision blur.
In the next moment, when they looked again, they had already appeared in a huge valley.
Swoosh!
In an instant, the two of them immediately felt a strong wind coming from behind them.
Their figure flashed.
The two of them instantly appeared thousands of meters away.
It was only at this moment that they saw clearly that what was trying to ambush them was actually a huge earth dragon that was greasy and covered in yellow-brown spots.
In another word, it was an earthworm that had become a demon.
However, its size was several times larger than an ordinary earthworm demon.
It was almost as tall as 30 floors.
Crack-
Seeing that the huge earthworm was charging at them again, Shen Ruyan made a hand seal and conjured a thunder flame.
There was a rumble.
The thunder and fire struck the giant worm, instantly engulfing it in flames. In just moments, the enormous worm was reduced to ashes.
Rustle—
Their commotion seemed to have disturbed something in the valley.
In Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s ears, there was a dense sound of crawling insects.
They turned around.
The couple’s eyes immediately narrowed.
Emerging from the crevices of the valley were countless grey-brown insects, roughly the size of a human head, with hard shells and sharp mandibles.
They swarmed towards Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan like sharks drawn to blood.
BOOM!
As the insects gathered in large numbers, Jiang Chengxuan raised his hand and pressed towards their direction.
In an instant, a huge palm that was thousands of feet long suddenly pressed down on the insects.
But to their astonishment, the insects didn’t avoid the attack.
Instead, they excitedly chirped and rushed towards the giant palm.
Squeak squeak
in just an instant, the palm that Jiang Chengxuan pressed down was covered with a dense army of insects.
In the sky, a huge palm pattern formed by countless insects appeared.
However, as time passed, the pattern was rapidly shrinking.
They were actually crazily devouring Jiang Chengxuan’s palm!
“It’s a Spirit Devouring Beetle!”
Suddenly, Shen Ruyan seemed to have recognized the bugs. She couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.
This puzzled Jiang Chengxuan.
Obviously, he didn’t know what the Spirit Devouring Beetle that Shen Ruyan was talking about was.
Shen Ruyan said again, “The Spirit Devouring Beetle is one of the bizarre insects of heaven and earth, ranked twenty-third among the thirty-six types. They feed on anything with spiritual Qi and have incredibly strong defenses.
It’s said that if there are a certain number of level 5 Spirit Devouring Beetles even Soul Formation Heavenly Lords can be turned into their food if they don’t have the corresponding methods to restrain them.”
This revelation made Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes narrow.
He hadn’t expected these creatures to be so terrifying.
When they reached a certain scale and number, even a Soul Formation Heavenly Lord would not be able to escape their clutches.
If they were allowed to reproduce here,
When their numbers reached a terrifying level, he really didn’t know if he could get out of this Sunset Secret Realm alive.
Squeak squeak—
By now, the palm he had pressed down was completely devoured by the beetles.
He could clearly see that the beetles that had swallowed his palm were clearly much larger than before.
And now, they turned their attention to Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, not hesitating to swarm towards them again.
“Husband, use your Pure Yang True Fire and True Sun Fire.
These Spirit Devouring Beetles are of the Yin attribute. What they are most afraid of are Heavenly Flames with the attribute of pure Yang.”
Shen Ruyan suddenly reminded him.
Hearing her words, Jiang Chengxuan didn’t hesitate.
With a stretch of his palms, two balls of pure Yang Fire, white with hints of gold, were flung towards the swarming Spirit Devouring Beetles.
At the same time.
He also took out his intrinsic True Treasure, the Eternal Scorching Sun Furnace.
There was a clang.
As the hd of the furnace opened, massive torrents of True Fire poured out.
Chi! Chi! Chi! Chi!
In an instant, the Spirit Devouring Beetles rushing towards them were incinerated by Jiang Chengxuan’s Pure Yang True Fire and True Sun Fire.
Moreover, these two flames seemed to possess their own consciousness.
After completely burning the beetles at the forefront, they split into two, then four, then eight. In the blink of an eye, they divided into dozen balls of flames, surging towards the remaining beetles.
Squeak squeak—
At this moment, the Spirit Devouring Beetles that were charging at Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan fearlessly immediately fled in all directions as if they had encountered something extremely terrifying.
Seeing this, Jiang Chengxuan didn’t intend to spare them.
He continued to control the Pure Yang True Fire and True Fure Fire, purging the Spirit Devouring Beetles.
After a while.
The ground was covered in ashes and powder.
“How about it, wife? Shall we go down and take a look?”
Looking at the scene before him, Jiang Chengxuan turned to Shen Ruyan and asked.
Shen Ruyan pondered for a moment, then nodded,
“We can. If I remember correctly, near the dwelling of the Spirit Devouring Beetle King, there are often extremely rare spiritual treasures. Let’s take this trip and see if we can find anything worthwhile.”
In the end, the Spirit Devouring Beetles that appeared turned out to be of low-level.
Ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators might need to be cautious, but for Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan at their current level, there wasn’t much to worry about. ’
The couple then headed into a vast underground cavern, following the direction where the Spirit Devouring Beetles had emerged.
Inside the cavern, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan felt a dense spiritual Qi.
Compared to the outside, the concentration of spiritual Qi was at least 40% stronger.
As they ventured deeper, the concentration continued to rise, indicating they were likely heading towards the dwelling of the Spirit Devouring Beetle King.
Rustle-
Just as the couple went deeper into the underground, the sound of crawling insects suddenly came from all directions.
Looking up, they saw even larger Spirit Devouring Beetles, with sharper mandibles, tougher shells, and scythe-like limbs.
Emitting fierce and brutal cries, they surged towards Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
BOOM!
In an instant, Pure Yang True Fire and Ture Sun Fire erupted, filling the cavern with the sound of burning bodies.
All the beetles shrieked in terror, trying to retreat.
However, at that moment, an odd force seemed to act upon them, momentarily overcoming their fear and driving them, despite the risk of death, to keep charging through the flames towards Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
It must be the Spirit Devouring Beetle King!
At this moment, the couple had the same thought.
Only the Spirit-Devouring Beetle King could make these beetles, who were born to be afraid of the Pure Yang, temporarily overcome their fear and continue to attack them..
