From Cellar to Throne: Zen's Quest for Immortality

If according to the level of the eastern region, these common knife insects should be regarded as the third-order monsters.

However, the biggest difference between knife insects and other third-order monsters is that they can never have only one.

"When you find a knife worm, there are at least 2000 in the back of it!"

This sentence is widely spread in the south. Although it has exaggeration, it is enough to prove the number of knife worms.

In the face of such a large number of knife insects, not to mention the half step congenital cultivator, even the strong one in the congenital secret realm, it's hard to cope with it.

At present, there are many disciples of Qingyun sect, and they are very strong. After a while, hundreds of them were killed.

The corpses of those knife insects, like a circular hill, slowly piled up around the fallen chariot.

Although they killed many of them, more and more of them were besieged. This thing is endless!

"Ah

Someone screamed. One of them was too radical and rushed into the encirclement of knife worms. It was too late for others to save him. Almost in an instant, the man was wrapped by a large group of knife worms and was eating crazily. When the knife worms dispersed, the man had been eaten clean by knife worms, and there was no bone left.

Seeing this scene, many people feel numb.

No one wants to be fed by insects.

But there is no end to the knife worm in front of us, but once everyone's strength fails, it will come to such an end eventually.

Everyone's heart is a gloomy, momentum obviously down.

But at this time, suddenly, someone called out: "everyone, fight or die! There is still a way to live if you spell it

"Poof --" a small purple arrow shot out, instantly penetrated more than a dozen knife insects.

"Bang!" The fierce burning flame burst open, and immediately burned half of the sky. The power of the real fire was extraordinary, and immediately burned dozens of knife worms, and the air was full of the smell of burning.

The strong of the congenital secret place began to work.

When people saw this, they were also encouraged and began to work hard.

Luo Zheng's figure is constantly shuttling among the knife insects. Although the power of red sandalwood boxing is not outstanding, with his own strength and physical advantages, he also killed seven or eight knife insects in a short time.

In the midst of this fierce battle, there was another scream.

"Leader of the knife bug!"

Luo Zheng and the others looked up and saw that there were hundreds of purple knife insects mixed in the green. The leader of these knife insects was twice as big as the ordinary ones, and his body was covered with sharp spines, which made his appearance more ferocious and terrifying.

That's the leader of the knife bug?

The strength of the leader is much stronger than that of the ordinary one, not to mention hundreds of them!

It's very difficult to deal with these knife worms in front of us. Now we have to face these more powerful leaders.

The leaders of the Knights crawled down from the sky, making a piercing scream. In addition, more knights were constantly added.

There was a gloom in everyone's heart. Is everyone going to die here today?

Who could have thought of such a consequence when we boarded the giant flying chariot?

In fact, it's very difficult to hunt knife insects, but it rarely happens.

At this moment, in the nearby jungle, there is an object "whoosh" sound flying over, it is a piece of bamboo that has been lit.

One end of the bamboo was burning, and when it fell to the ground, the other end was emitting thick smoke.

Luo Zheng sniffed, and he smelled that the smoke contained a strong smell of medicine.

Then more bamboo was thrown in.

Each bamboo was ignited and smoke came out from the other end.

Soon, the scene was wrapped in smoke.

Strange to say, those knife insects seem to be extremely afraid of the smoke. When they find the smoke, they spread their wings one after another and fly into the sky. They keep circling around and dare not rush into the smoke.

It's the same with even the more powerful knights.

Although the people who smoke are also very uncomfortable, they are still within the scope of patience. At least they can have a rest at last.

Then the crowd saw that the forest was shaking, and many people came out of it. These people were all dressed in uniform clothes, and each one was carrying a few bamboo knots behind him, with a serious look and a unified action.

"Imperial Army!"

After seeing these people, many disciples of Qingyun sect showed relaxed expression on their faces and were finally saved.

The Imperial Army, that is, the soldiers of the Empire, dispatched a considerable number of Imperial troops to suppress the insect tide every year.

Compared with the disciples of Qingyun sect, the emperor's army had unified actions and strict rules. Although the individual strength may not be comparable to the disciples of Qingyun sect, the overall strength should not be underestimated.After the imperial army came out, they lined up in a neat line. From the middle came a young man with a shaved face. The young man said solemnly, "I'm Lu Xiao, centurion of Qinglan team! Listen to the disciples of Qingyun sect. If you want to live, follow us! "

The disciples of Qingyun sect didn't move their feet when they heard this, but they all aimed at the pile of corpses.

Qingyun sect disciples come here from a long distance, not to take a holiday, but to earn points.

According to the rules of Qingyun sect, killing 20 knife worms will be another integral. In their eyes, the corpses of these knife worms are integral!

However, the corpses were so big that it was impossible to drag them back. So Qingyun sect stipulated that it was only necessary to dig out the monster crystal core on the chest of the beetle.

Just now, we have been working hard for so long. We have to get some booty in our hands.

However, as soon as these imperial soldiers came out, they let the people leave with them. Of course, some people were upset.

In fact, the relationship between LRA and the disciples of Qingyun sect has not been very harmonious. They have not liked each other, and even had group fights.

Someone said to the Lu Xiao, "can you wait? We also need to... "

Lu Xiao snorted and said, "I know what you're going to do, but you've thought it over. We've detected that the army of Dao Chong continues to gather here. The life of our imperial army is worth more than that of your Qingyun sect disciples! If you don't go, we'll go! "

The disciples of Qingyun sect have no choice but to save themselves. It's the end of their duty. As for their points, it's none of their business?

So they could only follow the imperial army.

There are a few strong people in the secret world. Looking at the corpses of insects all over the ground, they seem to want to stay and collect some crystal nuclei. With their strong strength, some of them have the chance to break out alone, but they look at the increasing number of knife insects in the sky, and finally shake their heads and give up.

In fact, the average strength of the imperial army was lower than that of the disciples of Qingyun sect, but they had a wonderful way to deal with the insect tide.

Like the bamboo knots they carry behind them, they should be specially made to resist the attack of knife insects.

Every time they walked out of the road, they would light a bamboo knot. As long as the thick smoke came out of the bamboo knot, the knife worms would not dare to come down to attack the people, but could only hover over their heads.

The Imperial Army led the way without saying a word. On the contrary, it was the disciples of Qingyun sect. From time to time, they also attacked the sword insects in the sky, attacking them with sword Qi or bows and arrows.

Those knife worms are far away and hard to hit, so whenever they hit one or two, some disciples of Qingyun sect will laugh

Luo Zheng followed. Seeing this scene, he could not help shaking his head.

There are many disciples of Qingyun sect. Although they are powerful, maybe the soldiers in front of them are not rivals at all.

However, if there was an overall battle, the disciples of Qingyun sect would be defeated at one blow, and would not be the opponent of the imperial army at all.

Discipline is too bad, maybe four or five people can barely cooperate, but when the number of people is large, chaos will arise.

Half an hour later, he finally walked out of the jungle. Under the leadership of the Imperial Army, he crossed a small river and a hillside, and a city appeared in front of everyone.

"That's Longbao. It's here at last!"

Some of the sharp eyed inner disciples have already called out.

The fortress in front of them is the Dragon fortress cultivated by the Empire. It is the fortress used to guard the southern frontier, which is the destination of their trip.

Longbao is the most important pass in the south of the burning empire. Further south, there is endless tropical rain forest.

Luo Zheng once read a book named "records of exotic animals", which recorded the dangerous places in the eastern region.

One of them records the story of a strong man in the eastern region who went deep into the tropical rain forest. According to the book, a hundred miles away from the tropical rain forest is still safe, and the monsters they encounter are only about Level 3. If you go 500 miles further, you can meet level 5 monsters. More than a thousand miles later, all kinds of high-level monsters of level seven or eight come and go

Further inside, there is a world that is difficult for human beings to explore.

Every year, many monsters come out of the tropical rainforest and rush into the burning empire for some unknown reasons.

The role of Longbao is to resist all kinds of monsters in the tropical rain forest.

Among many monsters, the most troublesome one is the knife worm Luo Zheng met before.

As a fortress, Longbao looks very simple in appearance. There is no decoration on either the city wall or the moat. The only decoration is a huge dragon head sculpture hanging on the wall of Longbao.

The whole body of that dragon head sculpture is black, and its eyes are shining in the light, reflecting the bright color. It is full of domineering power.

Passing under the dragon head sculpture, all the disciples of Qingyun sect could not help showing a trace of awe.

When Luo Zheng passed by, he still stayed for a while, staring at the eyes of the dragon head sculpture, and a trace of doubt appeared in his heart.Because Luo Zheng can feel the "meaning" of the dragon sculpture, that is, the prestige it exudes.
