Chapter 262 - Chapter 262: Chapter 255: The Indestructible Cockroach i (2/2)

A single powerful Insect Master could completely equal a force of thousands of troops.

Master He Shan was about to go and rescue the bodyguard who had fallen to the ground, as he had already been singled out for special attention by the enemy.

Several black shadows dashed rapidly across the ground, aiming straight for Master He Shan.

Since it was already the wee hours of the morning with only a dim light, it was impossible to see clearly.

Only Qin Niu, with his cultivation at the Innate Realm and his superior vision, could barely make out seven or eight black shadows.

The size of these creatures was about that of a cup, their bodies not particularly long, probably just fourteen or fifteen centimeters.

All that could be seen was their rapid crawling on the ground.

“Lord He, be careful!”

“Protect Lord He!”

Among the bodyguards, there were some with powerful cultivation who immediately sprang into action to protect Master He Shan after detecting the dangerous insects attacking.

They all went all out to guard Master He Shan.

One of the bodyguards, who also had cultivation in the Innate Realm, swung his sword at two of the shadows.

A very faint Sword Qi could be seen.

For warriors at the Innate Realm, even ordinary weapons could exhibit Sword Qi or Blade Qi.

After all, their cultivation was there.

However, using ordinary weapons obviously couldn’t compare with Qin Niu’s Ink Blade.

Qin Niu was now wielding the Ink Blade, which could produce Blade Qi five or six inches long. Moreover, as the Ink Blade continued to evolve and level up, other special abilities would certainly appear in the future, not just Blade Qi.

Bang!

One of the shadows was hit by the sword light, but after splitting in two, it seemed unharmed, flipped over, and immediately attacked the bodyguard.

Qin Niu finally got a clear look at these insects.

Cockroaches.

The so-called indestructible ‘little strong’, extremely tenacious in their vitality.

No wonder they could survive being split in half by the Sword Qi.

The cockroach that had been cut in two moved as if unaffected.

As they scurried forward, the two halves of their bodies came together.

“It… recovered just like that?”

Qin Niu almost dropped his eyeballs in shock.

Its regenerative ability had to be at least high-grade, if not stronger.

His Demon Ants possessed the ability to heal themselves, but they couldn’t compare to these cockroaches.

He had never seen an insect that could split in half and then rejoin itself, recovering instantly.

Cockroaches, known as the indestructible ‘little strong,’ already have a strong life force and regenerative capability.

These few cockroaches were pets carefully cultivated by Elder Jiu Yin; their regenerative ability was probably at a terrifying level.

“I’ve got to get two of these back home. When the Ant Queen lays offspring with this strong regenerative ability, the thought is just unimaginable.”

Qin Niu had no interest in those Bloodsucking Locusts.

On the other hand, the Golden Toad in the basket was very interested in them, constantly flicking out its tongue to pull locusts attacking Qin Niu into its mouth.

One by one, it ate joyfully.

“Fourth, can you handle those cockroaches?”

Qin Niu had already taken out a large Metal Bug Canister.

The cockroaches were huge, and each canister could hold at most one.

He had to figure out a way to bring several back with him.

Because one or two might not be enough to evolve the Ant Queen’s special abilities.

It would be best to catch all of these.

Qin Niu was, for the first time, feeling the inconvenience of the bug canister. Because of its small size, it couldn’t hold much.

Insect Bags were more popular for this reason.
