Chapter 509 - Betrayal (1/2)
In just the blink of an eye, Jin Sha King was surrounded by the crowd. His Yuan Shen was severely injured and he couldn't even do anything at all.
In actual fact, Jin Sha King was no slouch; his stomach held golden sand that he had previously refined that was at the ready to be blasted out of his mouth. Of course, this golden sand didn't only serve as a sandstorm, they could actually trap the Qi Practitioners in the sandstorm and suck their essences away.
Furthermore, this golden sand were refined from the divine golds, they could be used gathered in clumps and slammed down like meteors, only a very few could survived such an attack.
Yet, Gu Hongzi and Fang Jiange didn't allow him the chance to do so. Right at the first second, he was already taken down to the ground.
This Jin Sha King heard Zhong Yue and Tian Mo Concubine discussing his appearance and was angered. He shouted, "Who is ugly? I'm the most handsome man of the Jin Sha Golden King Race, countless ladies line up for me to bless them with my mighty stick and yet, I don't even look at them at all…"
Tian Mo Concubine scrutinized him from head to toe again. Her body suddenly shuddered as her repulsion of him only grew.
"Quickly," Zhong Yue urged.
Left with no choice, Tian Mo Concubine could only step forward and force herself to refine Jin Sha King. However, this Jin Sha King was, after all, a magnate while she was just an Inner Core Qi Practitioner who was half a step away from the Heavenly Dharma level. It wasn't easy for her to refine Jin Sha King.
But she was a master in refining the Gu insects and Jin Sha King was already severely injured. Thus, the refining process was made a little easier.
Zhong Yue carried Jin Sha King as they continued traveling while Tian Mo Concubine stood above Jin Sha King's head to continue her refinement.
Suddenly, the demon lady took out a gourd and opened it up, from which countless bees swarmed out and entered Jin Sha King's body.
Tian Mo Concubine's hands started making hand seals.
The insect-refining art she was casting was even better than the one Zhong Yue knew.
Meanwhile, more and more insect experts were swarming in at them, and none of them were weaklings. Even the insect magnates were also coming at them. It was Gu Hongzi, Fang Jiange, Bo Xun and the other experts that handled the incoming hostiles as Zhong Yue carried Jin Sha King.
"How do we get out?" Ji Xiang Concubine asked.
Everyone's faces stiffened up; Fang Jiange swiped his hand across his glimmering divine sword, and Gu Hongzi kept quiet with a solemn face while Qiu Jin'er and Tian Yanzhong were tending to their wounds with the help of divine herbs.
Getting out would be as difficult as trying to escape hell.
This was the planet of insects; although they were strong, the insect race had more magnates than all of them added up together. It was already a blessing that they were still alive.
These insect experts know the terrain and were able to use that to their advantage. Every movement they made was known by the insects, and even if the insects weren't able to stop them , they would still die of exhaustion by end of the day at this rate.
And this was not to mention that there were also formidable experts in the insect race. The number of insect magnates wasn't small and were stronger than most of them!
Abruptly, Zhong Yue said in a solemn tone, "Fight fire with fire."
"Fight fire with fire?" Fang Jiange mumbled curiously.
Zhong Yue nodded and explained, "We will refine every insect magnate we come across. Eventually, our insect force will grow enough to allow us to escape, unless…"
He raised his brow and said, "... Unless, the insect gods come after us themselves!"
The other experts' eyes brightened up, they turned to Tian Mo Concubine, Saint Concubine and Ji Xiang Concubine in unison. Although the Swords Gate experts were taught the ways to refine the insects, they surely wouldn't be as good as the demons.
Saint Concubine shook her head and said, "I don't have much attainment in this."
Ji Xiang Concubine who had the experience of refining some Gu insects shook her head as well, she said, "I'm not as good as Tian'er."
Meanwhile, Tian Mo Concubine heaved a breath of relief. She leaped down from Jin Sha King's body and said while smiling, "Finally settled this big guy! It's now the time of dead or alive, I will not hold back and will teach you all what I know, but as for how much can you all absorb, that is up to you yourselves."
Right after she finished speaking, she started teaching the crowd how to refine insects. Zhong Yue listened to her and surely enough, her way was much better than his.
From then onward, the crowd stopped killing the insect magnates and refined every single insect magnate they encountered instead.
Not long after, there were already six insect magnates by their sides. Even Zhong Yue refined an insect magnate of a Golden King Race. The insect magnate looked like a giant green toad with six legs, a pair of snake-like eyes, and a pair of horns on top of his head.
This insect magnate was huge and strong, he could turn into a toad-headed celestial with incredible strength.
Bo Xun also refined an insect magnate of the Green Iguana King Race.
Fang Jiange, Gu Hongzi, and the others also refined an insect magnate of their own, even Qiu Jin'er managed to refine one.
The five of them were becoming increasingly proficient at refining insects, while Zuo Xiangsheng, Tian Yanzhong, Saint Concubine, and the weaker ones were still struggling to refine an insect magnate.
With these insect magnates fighting alongside them, they were able to break through the encirclement of the insect experts. Tian Mo Concubine also found out the way to leave the underground from Jin Sha King's memories.
Zhong Yue looked around and a thought flashed across his mind, he said, "Hide in the insects' Yuan Shen secret realms. That way, we will be able to disappear from the senses of the insect experts."
The crowd nodded and immediately opened up the insect magnates' Yuan Shen secret realms before hiding in it.
Zuo Xiangsheng and Tian Yanzhong didn't manage to refine any insect magnates, but they still had a few insect giants with them and so were also able to hide in the insect Qi Practitioners' Yuan Shen secret realms.
