Overlord: Insect Eater

Chapter 152 Inside the Emperor's Tomb
The moment his body rushed into the tomb, Tian Chong could clearly feel the spatial fluctuations around his body, and the next moment, his soles had already stepped on the ground, and the surrounding scene changed accordingly.

Looking at it, it seems to be a desolate and dense mountain forest. In the mountain forest, everything is showing a withered yellow color, and it is barren.

Tian Chong frowned slightly, and sensed the fluctuations in the surrounding breath. There was a faint coercion from the northern sky, and Tian Chong guessed that the passage to the upper floor should be in that direction.

However, there was a dead silence in the surrounding area at this moment, and an ominous premonition lingered in Tian Chong's heart, so his vigilance was raised to the highest level, and in the end he directly released all five of his spirit insects, shrinking his body The shape stayed on his body, ready to strike at any time.

As for Tian Chong himself, he stood on top of the ancient Celestial Dragon Centipede and began to move towards the northern sky.

The speed of the ancient Celestial Dragon Centipede was very fast, and the Celestial Insect did not let it fly high along the way, but flew over the mountain forest, so that if there was anything special, it could be found immediately.

"Huh?" Suddenly, Tian Chong found a piece of yellow sand in the distance, the original mountain forest disappeared, and became an endless desert, and at the edge of the desert, on his way, a fierce golden beetle stopped him the way to go.

This golden beetle is hundreds of meters high, with a ferocious face and a triangular head. The scales all over the body are glowing with metallic luster, and there is some slime on the sharp fangs.

Tian Chong didn't hesitate, and instantly a sword energy roared out.

With the current strength of the Celestial Insect, spirit insects below the Seventh Rank Supreme can't stop his sword unless their bloodline level is high enough.

It's just that what Tian Chong never expected was that his sword energy penetrated through the body of the golden beetle, and after a while, the golden beetle disappeared directly.

"Phantom?" Tian Chong's face was full of astonishment.

You know, in his perception just now, it is definitely a genuine Zerg existence.

"It's really weird to be able to deceive my perception..."

And when Tian Chong came to that location, he found that even the original desert had disappeared, and what was in front of him was still the barren forest.

"Even the environment is an illusion, it really is weird!"

Could it be some kind of illusion to be able to plunge oneself into an illusion so thoroughly?Or is it something like a mirage's innate magical powers...

Tian Chong frowned and pondered for a long time, then he jumped off the head of the ancient Tianlong centipede and landed on the crown of a big tree.

However, at the moment when his figure just landed on the canopy, Heavenly Insect suddenly felt a warning sign, and he jumped up and out of the range of the canopy.

boom!
Just when his feet were less than a foot away from the canopy, the withered and yellow tree suddenly ignited a raging black flame at this moment, and a terrible temperature radiated instantly, causing the original space to suddenly distort.

sizzle.

The black flames were burning fiercely, and accompanied by a strange hissing, a figure slowly walked out of the flames.

Tian Chong's gaze shifted over, and his eyes froze for a moment, only to see that the hair of that figure showed signs of burning, but it was just that kind of flaming hair, showing a strange black color.

Of course, the most important thing is that the body of the figure is covered with a layer of blue-black scales, and the head is not in the shape of a human at all, but a shape similar to that of an ant clan. The two huge fangs are constantly opening and closing, and the neighing The sound came from his mouth.

"what?!"

Tian Chong was startled, this was the first time he encountered this kind of humanoid Zerg, and it looked different from all the Zerg he knew, could it be some newly discovered ancient Zerg?

"Tianlong, hang on to it, I want to see what it is!" After issuing an order to the ancient Tianlong centipede, Tianlong immediately left the opponent's attack range, and then prepared to try to subdue it.

Theoretically speaking, as long as the opponent is really a Zerg, no matter whether it is an ancient Zerg or not, it can be controlled by the Zerg Blood Control Talisman of the Spirit Zerg.

It's just that after the strange creature was tightly restrained by the ancient Tianlong centipede, the insect-controlling blood talisman of the heavenly insect was useless at all, and even when it touched the opponent's body, it was directly repelled and destroyed by a stronger force .

"Hey, is it possible that this thing still has an owner?"

Tian Chong raised his brows and said in disbelief.

But since it can't be used by me, it's useless to keep this thing. I waved my hand at the ancient Tianlong centipede, and then I saw Tianlong's body gradually tightened, and the row of hundreds of sickle-like legs was fierce. It stabbed into that thing's body fiercely, and after a muffled sound of tearing, the latter's body had been torn into pieces.

At the moment of that strange creature's death, a stream of pure energy overflowed from its corpse, and then quickly merged into the body of the nearest ancient Celestial Dragon Centipede.

"There is such a benefit?" Tian Chong smiled in surprise.

Although this amount of energy is nothing to today's ancient Celestial Dragon Centipede, if the creatures that appear in this tomb have this effect, it can also improve a few of their own spirit insects.

Sure enough, after continuing to move forward, Heavenly Worm encountered several attacks again, and although the appearance of the attacker changed, they should all come from the same source as the weird creature before, and after encountering more, Heavenly Worm Worm finally found some special information.

There are traces of artificial transformation on these strange creatures, and even their life forms have changed. They are not pure life forms. Where do scientists hide?
However, the strength of these things fluctuates between the mid-stage of the fifth-rank supreme and the peak of the fifth-rank supreme, so the next battle, the heavenly insects did not take action in person, and even the ancient Tianlong centipede and the back armored dragon centipede were put away. Let Jade Phoenix Sword Butterfly take action to see if he can break through the shackles of the fifth-rank supreme peak with these pure energies.

"It's just a little short of a breakthrough..." Feeling the state of the Jade Phoenix Sword Butterfly at this time, Tian Chong showed joy on his face.

It seems that my approach is indeed correct. The pure energy released after the death of those strange Zergs is of great benefit to the Zergs. If the Heavenly Worms absorb it by themselves, there will be no such special features at all.

"Ahead should be the passage leading to the upper floor. If the upper floor is the same as this floor, then my Jade Phoenix Sword Butterfly will be able to break through to the sixth-rank Supreme!"

Just when Tian Chong was rushing to the entrance of the passage, he suddenly sensed two rainbows of light rushing towards him in the distance. Obviously, the target of the other party should be the same as his own, which is also the entrance of the passage.

Tian Chong frowned. This situation is not unexpected. After all, there are six other people entering the first floor with him. The strength of those strange Zerg on this floor can at most slow down the pace of these people. , but could not completely block or even kill them.

It's just that Tian Chong didn't expect that this time he met the woman who talked to him outside, and of course the man in black with her. It seems that the two chose the same entrance to enter. Otherwise, it is unlikely to meet before reaching the passage entrance.

"Hehe, this little brother, I didn't expect to meet again. It's really destined..." After seeing Tian Chong, the woman took the lead in talking again. Tian Chong didn't seem to have any desire at a glance.

Tian Chong said calmly: "This is the only entrance to the upper floor. As long as you want to go to the upper floor, it is not normal to encounter them here,"

The woman's expression froze, the smile on her face suddenly froze, and she secretly scolded Tian Chong for not knowing style.

"I don't know what you encountered on the first floor, little brother. Why don't we share information with each other, so that it may be helpful in the future?"

Tian Chong raised his head and looked at the woman in green clothes in front of him. This woman had a slender body, but she was also bumpy, with exquisite eyebrows, which was quite seductive. What's more, at this time, the other party was looking at her with a pair of big watery eyes. I, on the other hand, give people a feeling of pity for me.

The last proposal made by the woman in green was reasonable, and it was indeed beneficial to both parties, but Tian Chong felt disgusted at the first sight of this woman, and his intuition told him that this woman was untrustworthy, so Tian Chong did not talk to her. The meaning of the other party exchanging information.

Seeing that Tian Chong was ignoring her, the woman in green's face immediately darkened, the smirk on her face could no longer be maintained, and her gaze at Tian Chong became icy cold.

Tian Chong frowned slightly, naturally she could feel the hostility from the other party, but she didn't care, but continued to rush towards the entrance of the passage.

"Brother Xuan Chen, this guy is too ignorant, he's really mad at me!" the woman in green looked at Tian Chong's back, and immediately said softly, with an aggrieved look.

The man in black clothes named "Xuan Chen" was still indifferent, and said in a cold voice: "This person is also a seventh-rank supreme powerhouse, and he is likely to come from the four main lines like me. Sometimes the other party will destroy the flower with his hands, I will not care about you..."

Xuan Chen's words made the coquettish woman in green froze, and the corners of her eyes twitched twice. Thinking that she would rely on this guy to find that thing in the future, she could only force her smile and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Xuan Chen Brother, don’t I also want to inquire about some news, to see if it can help us..."

"Since you said so, Brother Xuanchen, I will definitely pay attention to it in the future..."

Xuan Chen didn't look at the other party's pretending posture at all, but just glanced at him lightly, and also walked towards the entrance of the passage.

Seeing this, the woman in green gritted her teeth secretly, then squeezed out a smile again and quickly chased after her.

Naturally, Tian Chong didn't know what happened after that, if he knew, he would definitely give this man named Xuan Chi a thumbs up.

From the name of the other party, it can be judged that this is a Tianjiao who comes from the Profound Vein of the four veins of spirit insects, and judging by his age, he should be the Tianjiao of the previous session, and he is already the seventh-rank Supreme at this time. If there is no accident, he will also be a powerhouse of the supreme level in the future.

Such a person will not be fooled by women, so in front of such a person, anyone who wants to use beauty to achieve their ulterior motives will not end well.

After climbing the stairs to the upper floor, Tian Chong quickly left this barren forest world and was replaced by an endless desert. This is a real desert, not an illusion like before.

Of course, don't think that the desert that can be seen through at a glance is safe. On the contrary, the degree of danger here is even more dangerous than the first layer of mountains and forests.

Just like now, when Tian Chong is moving forward, a small sand arrow suddenly shoots out from the ground under his feet, directly heading towards his throat...

Listening to Chong raised his brows, this surprise attack was really hard to guard against, because he found that his spiritual detection could not go deep into the desert, which made it impossible for him to prevent those surprise attacks under the sand in advance.

Snapped!
Tian Chong raised his finger and directly flicked the so-called sand arrow away.

grumble!
After a cry, a green liquid exploded in the air, and when the green liquid fell on the yellow sand, a puff of white smoke came out...

This so-called sand arrow turned out to be a snake-like poisonous insect with the same color as the sand on the ground, and its venom could even corrode the sand, which showed its strong toxicity.

Although the cultivation level of this thing is not high, relying on its strong concealment and such a high degree of poison, I am afraid that if the fifth-rank supreme being is bitten by the other party, his life will be in danger.

But after seeing such a highly poisonous poisonous insect, Tian Chong's expression was not worried but happy, and he was actually excited.

"Great, I was still worried that I couldn't find a strong enough toxin, and this poisonous insect was delivered to the door. It's really a pillow when I'm sleepy."

Although Tianchong is not from the profound veins, nor is the poisonous insect as the main spiritual insect, but don't forget that he has also practiced a Dzogchen-level divine art - the divine light that exterminates all poisons.

This is the magical technique left by the ancestor of the spirit insect race that I met in the Xuansheng Zonghuang Lingzang back then. Its power is absolutely amazing. Although today's insect is only a small success, its power has far surpassed his destruction Sword lotus.

It's just that the cultivation of this divine technique requires the consumption of a large amount of highly poisonous substances, so after a small success, Heavenly Insect has suspended its cultivation.There is no way, there are too few raw materials that meet the requirements, so we can only accumulate slowly.

In the following time, Heavenly Insect directly released the Ice Spirit Butterfly to help him. Whenever he encountered a poisonous insect that wanted to sneak attack, Heavenly Insect would eject it first. Of course, he would not directly kill it like the first time... Afterwards, the Ice Spirit Butterfly directly frozen it, and then it became the raw material for the Heavenly Worm to practice divine arts, and was collected by it.
