Chapter 769 The banished immortal is determined to exterminate them all!
The beam of light was moving at an extreme speed, making it impossible to dodge.
"Let's give it our all!"
Shi Hao shouted, and three streams of immortal energy surged out from his body and poured into the Void Battle Halberd.
Then, he gripped the halberd with both hands and slashed out fiercely.
A golden sword aura flew out from the halberd, directly meeting the beams of light.
Others followed suit and made their moves.
Shi Hao's golden sword energy collided with the beam of light, unleashing a deafening roar.
He was jolted back, his tiger's mouth split open, blood dripping down the halberd shaft, but he still gritted his teeth and persevered, unleashing one sword strike after another.
Shi Yi's double pupil light shield trembled violently under the bombardment of the beams, and fine cracks appeared, but it did not shatter.
The dragon girl's dragon-shaped phantom was pierced by several holes by the beam of light, but it quickly healed.
Chang Gongyan's arrows became increasingly dense, and his face grew paler and paler, clearly indicating that he was extremely exhausted.
The immortal looked at their tenacious resistance, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
He hadn't expected that these people could withstand the full force of the Astronomical Conch's attack.
But the next moment, he increased the intensity of his playing, the conch shell sound became deeper, and the beam of light became denser.
However, Shi Hao and the others were also fighting with all their might, desperately holding on.
Finally, after the last beam of light dissipated, the spiraling sound came to an abrupt end.
The immortal put down the astronomical conch shell, looked at Shi Hao and the others, remained silent for a moment, then turned around and his figure gradually disappeared above the evil nest.
He left silently, as if he had never been there.
"He's gone?"
Qin Hao was panting heavily, his whole body soaked in sweat.
The dragon girl retracted her dragon-shaped illusion and said coldly, "It seems he's afraid of us."
Shi Yi shook his head, his expression grave: "No, he's not afraid of us, he has a backup plan. His attack just now was more like stalling for time."
Chang Gongyan nodded as well: "I also felt something was wrong. He came alone. Although the Astronomical Conch is powerful, it's not enough to kill all of us. He must have other purposes."
Shi Hao remained silent, his gaze fixed on the sky above the haunted nest.
He sensed that something was approaching.
It's getting closer and closer, clearer and clearer.
"Look at the sky!"
At this moment, Qian Renxue suddenly pointed to the sky and exclaimed.
When everyone looked up, they saw that the blood in the sky had disappeared, replaced by pitch black.
That blackness wasn't from dark clouds or the night sky, but from countless insects.
The insects swarmed everywhere, blotting out the sun, like a locust plague.
The sounds of their flapping wings combined to form a buzzing roar that made people's eardrums ache.
"It's the Black God Worm!"
Luo Dao's face was deathly pale, and his voice was trembling: "How did so many Black God Insects come!"
Shi Yi used his double pupils to see through the insects' true nature at a glance: "The weakest are at the Venerable Realm, and a small portion of them have already ignited their divine fire. Their numbers... are at least several million!"
Upon hearing this, everyone gasped in shock.
Millions of black divine insects, of which nearly a million ignited divine fire.
This power is enough to crush any cult leader-level being.
There were only a few of them, and even if they were very strong, they couldn't possibly stop them.
"run!"
Without hesitation, Shi Hao spread his Kunpeng wings, picked up Qin Hao and Qian Renxue, and flew away into the distance.
Shi Yi, Long Nu, Chang Gongyan, Luo Dao, Lan Yichen, and Hong Huang also used their fastest escape techniques to flee desperately.
The black insects surged in like a tide, moving at great speed, and their numbers seemed endless.
"Damn it, how come there are so many!"
As Chang Gongyan ran, he cursed, continuously firing arrows from his longbow and shooting down any insects that approached.
But there were too many insects; he had just shot down one batch when more swarmed in. "Die..."
The Dragon Girl formed hand seals, and beams of dragon-shaped light flew out from her palms, blasting apart the insects behind her.
However, those insects were fearless and relentlessly attacked, quickly filling the gap again.
"It's no use, there are just too many of them!"
Shi Yi gritted his teeth and reminded him.
As Shi Hao flew, he observed the surrounding terrain.
He tried to find a way out, but soon discovered that there was nowhere to escape.
The surrounding area was desolate mountains and wilderness, with nowhere to hide.
He tried to tear open the void, but soon discovered that the space here was locked by some kind of force.
It's impossible to cross it.
"Oh no, I can't break through the air?"
Shi Hao's heart sank.
At this moment, the God-Slaying Stone suddenly flew out from above his head and said anxiously, "That banished immortal has tampered with the space here. He has locked the entire area with the sound waves of the Astronomical Conch Shell. Unless his blockade is broken, no one can get out."
Shi Hao quickly asked, "How do we break this?"
The God-Slaying Stone said, "We'll find the key to the sealed array and force it open, but the key is definitely on him; we can't find it at all."
Shi Hao fell silent.
He never expected that the banished immortal's methods would be so ruthless.
They weren't left with even the slightest chance of survival.
"Brother Shi Hao, we've arrived!"
Just then, Lin Dong's voice suddenly came from afar.
Shi Hao turned his head and saw Lin Dong, Luo Feng, and Han Li rushing towards him from another direction.
They all bore scars, yet their aura remained strong.
"Brother Lin, Brother Luo, Brother Han..."
Shi Hao was overjoyed and quickly led Shi Yi and the others to greet them: "Did you escape?"
Lin Dong flew to Shi Hao's side and grinned, "Of course, Third Brother found a way to break the formation. We forced our way out, but why are there so many insects outside?"
Han Li's expression was solemn: "These black divine insects must have been summoned by someone. We need to find a way to leave here quickly, otherwise our spiritual energy will be exhausted sooner or later."
Luo Feng continued, "There are too many insects; we can't fight them head-on. We must find a way out first..."
"Correct."
Shi Hao nodded, and then repeated what the God-Slaying Stone had said.
After hearing this, the men's expressions turned even more grim.
"If we can't break through the air, then we can only go through the ground."
Chang Gongyan pointed to a mountain peak in the distance and said, "I remember there is a dense forest behind that mountain. We can hide there and use the terrain to shake them off."
"go!"
Shi Hao took the lead and decisively flew towards that mountain peak.
The others followed closely behind, running as fast as they could.
Behind them, the army of black worms continued their relentless pursuit.
After running for a while, Shi Hao suddenly stopped.
He glanced back at the dark cloud of insects behind him, a chill flashing in his eyes.
"Running like this isn't working. You guys go first, I'll cover the rear..."
Shi Hao hesitated for a moment before speaking.
Upon hearing this, Qin Hao immediately became anxious: "No, brother, how can you hold off so many Black God Insects by yourself?"
Shi Hao smiled and walked over to pat him on the shoulder: "Don't worry, I'll be fine."
Without waiting for Qin Hao's reaction, he turned around and charged towards the group of black god insects.
