Chapter 438: Falling Out

Translator: Sparrow TranslationsEditor: Sparrow Translations

Mo Wuji was only able to open his spiritual eye for a few seconds before experiencing a huge startle. In that instant, he understood why these bug eggs would cluster and throw themselves onto his battleship; it was because the battleship was emanating spiritual energy, which was why these bug eggs surged over in the truckloads. Some of the bug eggs had already started to hatch; that sharp mouth and fire red body, together with those thickly dotted legs, coupled with the strong Yin energy permeating through the air, these were Yin Fire Centipedes.

Shrill and sharp sounds could be heard. Mo Wuji’s heart sank; these Yin Fire Centipedes had just broken out of their shells but they could actually start gnawing at the exterior of the ship.

Mo Wuji’s spiritual will landed on the exterior of the ship; indeed, there were faint scars. Moreover, these were newly born Yin Fire Centipedes. If these centipedes continued to grow, and with so many of them…

Mo Wuji did not dare think any further. He was sure that if the battleship was chewed apart, none of them would be able to survive.

”Dao Friend Tong Cheng, control the ship. I will go out to eliminate those things.” Mo Wuji promptly made this decision.

”Dao Friend Mo, you definitely can’t do that. These things aren’t Colourless Leeches. I suspect that they are the eggs of Yin Fire Centipedes….” Master Pu Zi said immediately. ”Be it Yin Fire Centipedes or their eggs, fire wouldn’t be able to solve the problem.”

Not only did Yin Fire Centipedes like Yin energy, they also liked fire. This was a contradiction [1], but the Yin Fire Centipede was a living example of such a contradiction.

Mo Wuji had a clearer view than Master Pu Zi. He said calmly, ”If I don’t go out, then none of us would survive. Master Pu Zi is right, these are indeed Yin Fire Centipede eggs. I discovered that these Yin Fire Centipede eggs have latched onto our battleship because of our spiritual energy. Soon, they will hatch, and those Yin Fire Centipedes that hatch from their eggs are able to bite through the exterior of our battleship. If our exterior defenses gets bitten through, then we would all die.”

Mo Wuji’s words caused everyone to turn silent. They had all heard of the horrors of the Yin Fire Centipede, but they had never encountered one before.

By the side, Tong Cheng said calmly, ”Dao Friend Mo, Master Pu Zi is right. If these are really Yin Fire Centipedes, then fire definitely wouldn’t be solve the problem. Yin Fire Centipedes are fire-type demonic beasts, fire might even be able to make them stronger.”

Mo Wuji nodded, ”I know. But everyone should know that my fire isn’t ordinary fire. Moreover, even if Yin Fire Centipedes do not fear fire, that should be referring to the mature Yin Fire Centipedes. These are merely the larvae and the eggs. I don’t believe that I wouldn’t be able to destroy some eggs.”

With that, Mo Wuji directly pulled this ship’s lever.

In Mo Wuji’s perspective, even if these Yin Fire Centipede eggs did not fear fire, he would still use fire to burn them to death.

After all, these were just eggs. It was just like eating when you’re hungry; eating a bowl of rice would be able to raise your energy. But if you were to stuff in more food then your stomach could handle, then you would also die of overeating. Moreover, was the Scholar’s Heart an ordinary fire?

It was a heavenly fire.

Unfortunately, he didn’t know any water-type or ice-type skills. Otherwise, he wouldn’t need to use the Scholar’s Heart to deal with these fire-type bug eggs.

”Kacha!” With a light sound, Mo Wuji had already stepped out of the Immortal-Traversing Ship. Countless of bug eggs had already thrown themselves into his armour made of Scholar’s Heart flames. Fluttering sounds could be heard from his Scholar’s Heart defenses. No matter how many bug eggs there were, when they landed on the green defenses, they were turned into ash.

Mo Wuji heaved a sigh of relief; his Scholar’s Heart was indeed able to deal with these bug eggs.

In a short breath of time, there weren’t any bug eggs around Mo Wuji. Mo Wuji placed both his hands on the exterior of the battleship; his Scholar’s Heart flames came surging out like waves.

These flames soon formed rings after rings of fire around the battleship.

”Puuu!” The Immortal-Traversing Ship instantly stabilised. Soon, grey hazy space appeared in front of the Immortal-Traversing Ship. Countless of bug eggs were turned to ash under the Scholar’s Heart. The air currents in the air violently crashed against Mo Wuji; Mo Wuji could feel waves of pressure.

Before Mo Wuji could return to the battleship, a shrill cry sounded through the air. After which, a black figure which was tens of meters long pounced towards Mo Wuji.

This was a Yin Fire Centipede? Mo Wuji extended his hand, Tian Ji Pole appeared in his palm.

The Yin Fire Centipede was multi-coloured. It had a total of hundreds of sharp claws, and its mouth was filled with dirty green teeth, causing people’s hearts to turn cold.

”Swosh!” Before that huge Yin Fire Centipede reached Mo Wuji, 10 searing fire blades raced towards Mo Wuji.

Mo Wuji opened both his palms, also shooting out 10 lightning swords.
