The Thunder God Novel - Chapter 776
Chapter 776 Blood Worm (2)
Immediately after was another punch. Lei Xingfeng discovered that his fist seemed to have become incredibly powerful, and it was extremely tough. If he had used all of his strength in the past, his fist would have shown signs of collapsing. Now that he punched down, he felt that the effect was extremely good.
Boom! Kacha! Kacha!
Lei Xingfeng really used his strength to suck milk. Even Lei Yin let out a slight tremor. Threads of lightning jumped on Lei Yin. The power of this punch was simply too great. It directly knocked half of the monster’s head down.
The monster didn’t even have time to struggle. Large amounts of dirty blood sprayed out, and its body trembled non-stop.
Lei Xingfeng didn’t stop at all. He punched down again and a fist mark appeared on the monster’s head.
Like a drum beating or a meat chopping, Lei Xingfeng’s fist fell like rain.
In just seven or eight blows, the monster’s head was smashed to pieces.
Only then did Lei Xingfeng let out a sigh of relief and let go of his tattered head. He stood there and used his enormous feet to play with the monster. This thing didn’t move at all.
As half of the monster’s body landed in the water, when the monster died, the water suddenly boiled and the noise was even more horrifying.
Lei Xingfeng forcefully grabbed the monster’s body and dragged it out of the water. Then, he saw an astonishing scene.
Countless tiny red dots were completely attached to the monster’s skin, forming a thick layer of red membrane. In just a few breaths, the red dot quickly grew. As soon as it saw it, it crushed the skin and burrowed into it, causing Lei Xingfeng’s scalp to go numb. He naturally hated the things that were gathered together.
After a while, thumb-sized red insects appeared and grew rapidly, spreading towards the upper part of his body at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Lei Xingfeng took a few steps back and watched helplessly. He was also stunned for a moment.
It was too terrifying. Even though Lei Xingfeng was already a cultivator of a high-ranking monarch, he still had an instinctive horror towards this kind of thing. A bolt of lightning struck down, causing countless small red insects to tumble down and die. However, more small red insects rushed into the monster’s body.
In less than an hour, red insects that were as thick as arms and two feet long, like small snakes, crawled in and out of the broken monster’s head. Seeing Lei Xingfeng vomiting, it was too disgusting.
Lei Xingfeng couldn’t help but smile bitterly. Even if this thing was valuable, it didn’t have any value anymore. It was devoured by this strange red insect.
The monster’s originally plump body shrank as time passed. Lei Xingfeng even heard the rustling sound of red monsters gnawing on bones. It was truly creepy.
Then, an even more shocking scene appeared.
The red insects quickly ate up the entire monster, as if there wasn’t even a single mouthful of scrap left, and then they began to devour each other.
This speed was absolutely frightening. In just a few moments, a few meters long red bug appeared. Lei Xingfeng did not dare to withdraw his true body. Instead, he continued to take a few steps back. He suppressed his nausea and calmly observed. He wanted to see what the result was.
Thousands of red insects that were seven to eight meters tangled with each other, forming a mountain of meat, a mountain of rapidly moving meat.
Lei Xingfeng was dumbfounded.
In less than an hour, several monsters several tens of meters long appeared again. They were still fighting each other, trying to eat each other.
Lei Xingfeng simply couldn’t understand. Could this be the way to revive a monster?
Just as he was wondering, a triumphant monster devoured its last companion. This little red bug had already turned into a colossus. However, compared to the previous monster, it was still much smaller. It was only a hundred meters long. After eating its companion, it only glanced at Lei Xingfeng before sliding into the water and quietly leaving.
However, Lei Xingfeng could see fear and fear in its eyes.
This time, Lei Xingfeng did not make a move. Instead, he watched it leave. After a while, he put away his true body and muttered to himself, “What the fuck is this monster? It’s too strange.”
However, Lei Xingfeng decided not to provoke them, not because he could not defeat them, but because it was too disgusting.
“That’s a blood worm!”
A voice came, frightening Lei Xingfeng to release his true body in an instant. He turned around and couldn’t help but complain, “Senior, don’t be so frightening, okay?”
Xing Feng walked in. This fellow’s entire body was flickering with rainbow-colored spots of light. He could tell at a glance that he had washed his true body in the rainbow-colored light.
“I’m not scary,” Xing Feng said. “This blood worm is also considered a treasure. However, it can’t be used on its own, but it’s a harmful worm.”
Lei Xingfeng said, “What do you mean?”
Xing Feng said, “If you throw this kind of insect into the river, all living things will be swallowed. This river … will become a river of death. Ordinary cultivators will not be able to resist it. If any cultivator is swallowed, then they will create a powerful monster.”
Only then did Lei Xingfeng react. He said, “Senior, why did you come so quickly?”
Xing Feng said with lingering fear, “If you don’t hurry up, you’ll be trapped inside. My true body has already been attacked by the Dark Elements. If it weren’t for the seven-colored light, I would be finished. I won’t be able to last long.”
Dark elements are useless against Lei Xingfeng, However, for most cultivators, it was an extremely abnormal existence. Once they were attacked by the Dark Elements, it would be extremely difficult to escape. Fortunately, there was a rainbow light not far away. They could wash their true bodies and corrode the Dark Elements. Otherwise, it would be possible for some of Xing Feng’s troubles to be poisoned to death by the Dark Elements.
Xing Feng took out a bottle and went to the dark river to fetch a bottle of water, then carefully sealed it.
“What do you want this for?” Lei Xingfeng asked curiously.
“This is also a treasure, don’t you think?” Xing Feng said.
Lei Xingfeng thought about it. This was a kind of harmful treasure. Since he had encountered it, he had to collect some as well. The main reason was that it was better to keep it. He still had some doubts. He said, “This blood worm is sealed in a bottle like this, won’t it die?”
Xing Feng said, “It will die. However, the dead blood worms will soon be eaten by other blood worms, and then split into another blood worm. When they are young, the blood worms cannot grow, but they will live forever.”
Without saying a word, Lei Xingfeng immediately took out a bottle of blood worms. He used a glass bottle, so he could clearly see the blood worms in the water. The tiny red dots made people’s hearts tremble.
Xing Feng asked, “You should have encountered the Blood Beast just now, right?”
Lei Xingfeng said, “I don’t know if it’s a blood beast. After being killed by me, its corpse was devoured by these blood insects. Then … an identical monster appeared. The only difference is that it was much smaller than before and slipped into the water to escape.”
Xing Feng clapped his hands and said, “That’s right, that’s right. That’s the Blood Chronic Beast. It’s also endless. It can be resurrected from the dead.”
Lei Xingfeng said, “Do you have the materials we need on the Blood Chronic Beast?” He was still very concerned about this. He was too surprised just now, so he started too late and was taken advantage of by the blood worms.
Xing Feng said, “No, it’s of no value. This thing is useless.”
Hearing this reply, Lei Xingfeng heaved a sigh of relief. If it was of great value, he would probably regret it.
Lei Xingfeng said, “How should we go? Do you know?”
Xing Feng said, “I’ve heard of one thing. It is said that everyone who can enter the underground is an expert. Everyone who can enter will have a good harvest.”
“How do I get there?” Said Lei Xingfeng.
Xing Feng said, “I don’t have any patience at all. I can’t go against the current. As for whether it’s right or wrong, it’s up to us.”
Lei Xingfeng asked, “Why go against the current? I think it’s better to go downstream. The deeper we go, the more different it is. If we go against the current, we’ll go back to the ground, right?”
Xing Feng pondered for a moment. Actually, he was also uncertain. This was all legends of others. After pondering for a moment, he said, “Logically speaking, what you said is more reasonable. However, legends are not groundless. There is always some basis for it.”
Lei Xingfeng said, “How about this, I go downstream and you go upstream?”
Xing Feng hesitated. He knew the benefits of following Lei Xingfeng. After a while, he said, “Let’s go downstream together and see if we can get through. If we can’t get through, let’s go upstream!”
Lei Xingfeng didn’t care. He said, “Well, it’s probably going to fly over. I observed some places. Some places have banks, and some places don’t.”
Xing Feng said, “Yes, we can only fly over. However, we must be careful on the surface of the river to guard against the attacks of the Blood Chronic Beasts. Based on the size of this dark river, there should be quite a few Blood Chronic Beasts. It is very dangerous for us to suddenly jump out of the water without releasing our true bodies.”
Lei Xingfeng had witnessed the attacks of the Blood Ridge Beast before. It was really fast. Once he rushed forward, if he wasn’t prepared, he might fall into the river. Thinking about the dense number of blood worms in the river, his heart trembled. It wasn’t because he was afraid, but because he was disgusted.
The two of them flew into the air as close as possible to the top of the rocks on the dark river. This way, they would be farther away from the dark river. Once the Blood Chariot pounced out, they would still have room to maneuver.
He carefully flew to the top of the cave wall. It was about six to seven hundred meters away from the Dark River. The space here was really large, so from the surface of the river, they were only two small black dots. Generally speaking, the Blood Ravens in the river could not see them.
As he flew forward, Lei Xingfeng gradually discovered that the rocks at the top were gradually dipping downwards. Very quickly, they were less than two hundred meters away from the surface of the water. He could already clearly see the surging dark river water.
The river water here was suffused with a faint red foam, especially the reef in the dark river. Where it should have been foaming, it was suffused with red foam.
Those were all small red insects, and they didn’t know how many blood insects there were in this dark river.
As he continued to fly forward, the cliff stones at the top became lower and lower, gradually approaching the surface of the river. Xing Feng began to hesitate. He said, “This place is too close to the water surface!”
Lei Xingfeng also noticed that something was wrong. As long as the Blood Griffin was within a hundred meters of him, it would be very difficult for them to deal with it.
