Chapter 97 - 84: Collapse (4K)_2
"How could you..."
Before Jiao Cheng could finish his question, he saw his subordinate’s chest unnaturally bulge. Along with a retching "UGH!" sound, the tattooed man’s jaw split open, a grotesquely large mouth revealing a fist-sized egg.
A demon wasp, half the height of a man and colored black and yellow, slowly retracted its abdominal stinger that had pierced through the human’s chest. In its compound eyes, made of thousands of tiny dark red facets, reflected Jiao Cheng’s and Di Wu’s pallid complexions.
Rustling sounds interspersed throughout the surrounding sea of flowers. Indeed, with such a vast sea of flowers, there were naturally creatures to pollinate them. The Banished Immortal had returned from the Endless Sea and sealed not only treasures within the Tomb of Clothing, but also demons from the islands of the Endless Sea domains.
These demons were Red-eyed Purple Lady Bees. Individually, they were not strong, but they numbered in the thousands.
In the absence of large living creatures, they collected nectar like ordinary bees, but upon encountering large creatures, they actively hunted and laid eggs within them.
With no distinction between males and females, all Red-eyed Purple Lady Bees could lay eggs, each capable of causing an ecological disaster in the wild.
"Run!"
Di Wu lifted Jiao Cheng, raised a torch, and rushed toward the palace.
Two Sword Cultivators, no longer suppressed by the Gang Wind, controlled their Flying Swords to cut through the obstructive sea of flowers, swiftly killing the oncoming Red-eyed Purple Lady Bees.
In the vast sea of flowers, the Sword Cultivators’ Flying Swords, the powerful crossbows fired by Jiao Cheng’s men, the thrown torches, and the torn talismans managed to kill the foremost Red-eyed Purple Lady Bees, but their numbers seemed endless.
And over time, the parasitic bees crawling through the man-high sea of flowers began to tremble their wings and take flight.
