Chronicles of Celestial Origins

A group of people on the Tianling ship of the first column of the second legion of the Qingzhou coalition stood on the bow deck, frowning as they watched the incoming army of hundreds of monsters.

"I don't know what kind of skills these monsters have studied. They seem to have mastered the magical power of immortality. They are really difficult to deal with."

"What are those surging red flesh masses? Many lonely monks were swallowed up by them. Is it related to this magical power?"

"This batch of monsters is very strange. They should be beasts specially bred by the Mubei monsters for attacking the city. The current situation is unknown. It is not appropriate for us to fight them. We should retreat first and then make plans."

"Although these monsters are a bit weird, they are all low-level monsters and are nothing to worry about. Send an order to all the monks with positions above that of the Alliance Manager to go out to meet the enemy. I want to see if this monster is really immortal." Column leader Wu Changqing snorted coldly, raised his fist high, and the Tianling Ship's light curtain melted into a gap.

"Everyone follow me to attack." Wu Changqing gave an order and turned into a escaping light and shot out. Everyone followed. At the same time, many monks also went out on each wind spirit ship.

Wu Changqing flew forward, his consciousness locked on an oncoming transformed monster. He put his palms together, and a long green strip of crystal clear light shield formed in his palms. With a push of his hands, the green light shield shot out. And out, it grew bigger and bigger in mid-air.

The transformed demonic beast was in the shape of a short, fat man with a long tail. Covered by a blue light shield, its body flew up and roared. Its whole body condensed into a blood-colored spear and shot toward the light. shield.

The spear pierced the light shield, and the two struck each other without making any sound. The spear seemed to have pierced into the water, going straight through the surface of the light shield, and then it cracked every inch visible to the naked eye.

At this time, the light shield had grown to several hundred feet in size. It was moving very fast and passed through the body of the transformed monster without any hindrance, trapping him inside.

The transformed monster roared inside, its whole body formed a blood-colored shield, and brilliance surged in its hands. Before it could make any move, Wu Changqing clapped his hands.

The blue light shield exploded, and countless rays of cyan light burst out from inside, flooding an area of ​​hundreds of feet in the blink of an eye.

The giant python was in the middle, and its huge body was extremely twisted, and its whole body was torn apart. At the moment when the cyan light curtain exploded, a huge force swept through it, and its body collapsed section by section. At this moment, a large amount of water poured out of its body. The red corpse insect reunited the broken body.

When the blue light dissipated, the giant python's body flashed red, and all injuries were healed immediately.

Wu Changqing narrowed his eyes slightly, formed seals with his hands, and dense golden brilliance surged out of his body and condensed into a long sword, with runes flowing on it. He shouted softly, and the golden long sword slashed straight down.

The giant python flew back, roaring angrily again and again. The blood around its body surged, and a bloody light curtain formed, covering it.

The golden long sword was extremely fast, following like a shadow, slashing at the giant python's blood-colored light curtain without any stagnation. It was like cutting tofu, splitting the blood-colored light curtain, and easily decapitated the giant python's head.

The moment the giant python's body and head were separated, dense corpse insects emerged from the fracture again, connecting the two together.

Wu Changqing controlled the golden sword and turned around. The giant python had no time to resist, and its head was cut off again.

Countless red corpse insects spewed out from the fractures in its neck and head.

Wu Changqing controlled the golden sword and slashed back and forth. Runes flowed all over the golden sword, and golden light burst out. Cutting the head of the giant python was like cutting tofu with a sharp knife.

But every time after cutting off its head, the corpse worm inside the giant python can merge the two into one. Wu Changqing frowned, and under the control of his spiritual consciousness, the golden long sword cut off the giant python's head again. This was already The giant python's body was separated for the seventh time. Just like the previous times, as soon as its huge head was raised, countless corpse insects poured out and reconnected the head and neck.

Wu Changqing frowned more and more. He repeatedly slashed the giant python's head to see if the monster could really withstand unlimited attacks and remain immortal.

Just as he was controlling the golden giant sword to cut down again, the giant python's body suddenly made a "gurgling" sound, the sound was loud and clear, like the chirping of thousands of insects.

The giant python opened its mouth with blood, and countless red corpse insects poured out from its mouth and nose, making a cooing sound and scattering in all directions.

Seeing this scene, Wu Changqing was slightly startled. He did not stop the red corpse worms. He saw the dense red corpse worms divided into several groups and flew towards the back quickly. The golden sword slashed down, once again beheading the giant python.

This time, a large number of corpse insects did not emerge from the fractured area of ​​the python's head and neck, causing them to connect together as quickly as before. Wu Changqing's eyes lit up and he was thoughtful. Before the python's body could reconnect, his body shape In a flash, he held the giant python's huge head on his shoulders, escaped from the light, returned to the column's Tianling Ship, and threw his head down.

At this time, the entire battlefield was dispersed by the army of demon corpses. Most of Mubei rushed forward like a tide and had a close encounter with the Qingzhou coalition forces. The situation was very chaotic.

"Mingjin retreat." Wu Changqing ordered when he saw that the army of undead demonic beasts had turned the coalition's formation into a pot of porridge. Mubei's army took advantage of the situation to cover up the attack, but the coalition forces could not resist and retreated steadily.

Soon, there was only a sound of golden roar, and all the warships made a roar and retreated to the rear. When everyone in the coalition heard the order to retreat, they all fled in panic. Most of Mubei chased them to the city wall for two to three hundred miles, and were attacked by others. The huge cannon displayed above blocked the attack.

Many artillery shells fell like rain on the city walls, swamping the pursuing Mubei front army and halting their offensive.

On the deck of the Tianling Ship, everyone gathered around the head of the giant python with different expressions.

At this moment, the giant python's head was still swinging, making a cooing sound, and red corpse worms slowly emerged from the wound and continued to the bow of the ship, lying on the defensive light curtain, as if trying to escape from the warship.

"They have all been decapitated, but they are not completely dead yet. This demon has such tenacious vitality, it is really terrifying."

"What are these bugs? Just now when I fought with a giant elephant monster, I saw a large number of red bugs flying out of its body and reattaching its broken limbs."

"These bugs are lying on the defensive light curtain, as if they want to rush out."

"Why don't we open the defensive light curtain and see where these bugs want to go?"

Everyone said one word after another.

……………………

Wu Changqing held a red corpse insect between his two fingers, observed it carefully for a while, and then crushed the corpse insect with a gentle squeeze: "I believe that the secret to the immortality of monster beasts lies in these insects. To be honest, here. I have killed the giant python several times before, and every time I cut off its head, a large number of corpse insects immediately poured out from the broken head and neck, merging the two into one."

"It wasn't until I killed this demon for the seventh time that a gurgling, insect-like cry suddenly came from its body, and then a large number of demonic insects poured out of its mouth and nose. I didn't know where it was going, so I beheaded it again. "Level, this time the demon didn't heal its body so quickly, so I took the opportunity to get its head back."

"I wonder if many fellow Taoists have encountered the same situation when dealing with these monsters?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a pale-faced man behind him answered: "When I was fighting against a transformed tiger demon, I encountered a similar situation to Wu Daoyou. The tiger demon's body was torn into several pieces by me many times. It was also the same at the beginning. It quickly reconnected and healed quickly. I forgot how many times I killed it, until a large number of demonic insects emerged from its mouth and nose. I eliminated all these demonic insects, and after killing it two or three times, the tiger demon disappeared. He was able to heal his injuries again, and his body fell apart."

"These red monster worms are looking for food." Another man with triangular eyes said: "I saw with my own eyes that the red corpse worms emerging from the monster engulfed a monk and gnawed it clean, and then returned to Inside the monster."

Wu Changqing pondered: "Now it is certain that the immortality possessed by these monsters is related to the red monsters. Monsters cannot heal injuries indefinitely. Once a certain critical point is exceeded, the monsters in their bodies will break away from the body and search for food. We have to Report this information to the legion and let the coalition forces step up their research on the weaknesses of these monsters. I am worried that more powerful monsters of this type will appear in the future."

"With our ability, it is so difficult to kill an early-stage transformed monster, let alone the disciples below. If there are more powerful undead monsters, once they are involved in a large-scale war, it will be troublesome. ”

"We need to figure out where these monsters come from? The reason behind the emergence of so many monsters with such powerful self-healing power must not be simple."

"Looking at it like this, it doesn't look like the skill is a factor. These bugs are the key."

"It would be best to capture a few monsters alive and study them slowly."

While a few people were talking one by one, the red bugs swarming on the light screen on the warship changed again. I saw densely packed bugs falling from the light screen. After a few flutters, each one was like a dead corpse. Not moving at all.

Before anyone could react, the giant python's huge head melted away bit by bit at a speed visible to the naked eye. After a while, only a skeleton was left.

"Why did all these bugs suddenly die?"

Wu Changqing's eyes flickered: "It seems that these monster insects cannot leave the body of the monster for too long."
