Chapter 264: Chapter 257: Singing of the Empty Fort Strategy?_1

The Termite’s Spirit Control had no effect, so let the Red-eyed Golden Toad make its move.

While the severed Taiyin Yaoyao was still unable to recombine, the Red-eyed Golden Toad swiftly flicked out its tongue, snatching back one half of the corpse.

Toads are natural enemies of most insects and can restrain them.

This glutton was dragging the half-body of Taiyin Yaoyao towards its mouth as if it dared to eat anything that moved.

However, the Taiyin Yaoyao was Elder Jiu Yin’s life-linked Insect, so naturally, it would not be so easily defeated.

Its three feet firmly clung to the Golden Toad’s lips.

The other half, sensing danger, quickly pounced over, trying to merge back with its other half.

“Fourth, try to take care of this half-body.”

Qin Niu’s idea was straightforward: even if the cockroach could not be killed, after being slashed in half, its combat and spiritual power would definitely be affected.

The simplest math was to divide by two.

That is, the original strength of 2 would now only be 1.

That half of the cockroach’s body trembled and then fell to the ground.

Qin Niu was overjoyed, immediately capturing it within the Insect Jar.

Once the lid was on, how would it be able to recombine?

The half-body of the Taiyin Yaoyao that had been put into the Metal Bug Canister was still extremely active, frantically biting at the canister’s walls.

Fortunately, its biting ability wasn’t as powerful as imagined.

It seemed, it didn’t have the strength to break through the Insect Jar.

Qin Niu looked toward the other half of the Taiyin Yaoyao, which was still desperately clinging to the Golden Toad’s mouth.

“Wart Toad, let me give you a hand.”

He aimed the Ink Blade at one of the Taiyin Yaoyao’s legs.

Its legs were covered in sharp hooks, but in front of the Ink Blade, they were nothing.

The Golden Toad was also very eager for such a high-class nutritional item.

It swallowed hard in cooperation.

One could see that the cross-section of the severed Taiyin Yaoyao did not bleed, but was shrouded in a faint mist of gray smoke.

With the cooperation of Qin Niu and the Golden Toad, that half of the Taiyin Yaoyao’s body was finally successfully swallowed by the Golden Toad.

After it was swallowed, Qin Niu watched it nervously.

Because even if such a strange insect was eaten, there was no guarantee it could be digested.

The Golden Toad soon exhibited a painful expression.

The Innate Realm expert who was saved had already taken a Detoxification Pill and was applying medicine to the wound on his face.

Wisps of white smoke rose from it.

The person involuntarily let out a scream of pain.

The bitten area contained corpse poison; if not treated in time, once the corpse poison reached the heart, the entire person would turn into a walking corpse.

Qin Niu was still observing the Golden Toad’s reaction.

If it was fine, they could consider dealing with the next Taiyin Yaoyao.

This was Elder Jiu Yin’s life-linked Insect; killing one would certainly be a heavy blow to Elder Jiu Yin.

“Thankyou, Master Qin, for the rescue!”

The situation of the Innate Realm expert had slightly improved, and he immediately thanked Qin Niu.

“No need to thank me, we are all comrades in battle, we should help each other. How are you feeling now?”

Qin Niu noticed there was still a hole on the man’s face.

But the wound had been treated with medicine.

“The corpse poison has been mostly neutralized for now, the rest needs to be slowly resolved when I go back. Elder Jiu Yin lives up to his reputation, the Taiyin Yaoyaos he raised are extremely fierce and difficult to deal with; my insects had no power to fight back and have been slaughtered to just one remaining.”

The man looked at the insect bodies on the ground with heartache.

It turned out to be two Flower-face Spiders.

In the world of insects, spiders are absolute predators.

They can even prey across species on some small animals.

A powerful spider can capture small animals like snakes or birds.

But these two Grade Five Giant Spiders were utterly weak in the face of a Grade Seven Taiyin Yaoyao.

Although Qin Niu hadn’t witnessed their battle, the shattered bodies told him that they were completely crushed in the fight.

It must have been a fight without the slightest chance to resist.

These Taiyin Yaoyaos were not only incredibly agile, moving like lightning, but also had strong self-healing abilities.

They were not afraid of injury at all.
