Chapter 84: Chapter 84: The Gold Eating Bug’s Immunity to All Methods, Sweeping Across the Demon Cultivators i
Translator: 549690339
“Impossible, they’re unscathed?!”
“What the hell are these weird bugs, why are they so terrifying?”
The middle-aged cultivator was incredulous, for he saw golden bugs flying in midair, undamaged after being hit by dozens of talisman attacks.
A burst of golden light emerged on their bodies, effortlessly blocking these magic attacks.
This was the Gold Eating Bug’s second ability – Impenetrable to all Magic!
Due to their extraordinarily hard shells, combined with a high resistance to magic spells.
Common talisman spells thrown at them were like scratching an itch.
It was this Impenetrability to all Magic that made the swarm of Gold Eating Bugs a natural disaster.
Even the immortals trembled at the mention of their name, fearing not being able to escape.
Now they had appeared in the Mortal World, demonstrating some of their power, one could say they were merely flexing their muscles.
“That’s right, I have Second-stage Thunder Talismans on me!”
“I refuse to believe that a mere bug can withstand a second-stage talisman.”
The face of the middle-aged cultivator was twisted.
Seeing the gold bugs still pressing towards him, his hair stood on end and his body quivered.
If these weird bugs were really to get near him, he would surely be dead without a doubt.
Even though the second-stage talisman was a trump card given to him by the Sect Master, it was incredibly precious.
But for the sake of his own life, he couldn’t afford not to use it.
As for the punishment he might receive from the sect afterwards, he needed to survive this night first.
If he were to die, nothing else would matter.
Whizz, whizz, whizz!!!
Sadly, it was already too late for him to use the second-stage Thunder Talisman.
Because the Gold Eating Bugs suddenly accelerated, like terrifying sword lights, their speed increased severalfold.
He didn’t even get the chance to take out the second-stage Thunder Talisman from his body when one of the Gold Eating Bugs, like a sword light, effortlessly pierced his energy bubble.
Skill – Armor Break!
With a cracking sound, his energy bubble shattered like glass. The Gold Eating Bug instantly pierced his skull, causing his head to explode like a watermelon, blood was everywhere.
“Thi-, this!”
The middle-aged cultivator was utterly shocked and confused before death took him, not knowing who the enemy was, not knowing who had moved against him, not knowing how his whereabouts had been revealed.
He was filled with regret, his guts literally green. If he had known there was such a terrifying cultivator in Misty Cloud City, he would never have joined this mission, but it was too late now.
Thump, thump, thump!!!
And it wasn’t just this middle-aged cultivator, the other cultivators from the Ghost Demon Sect were also experiencing misfortune.
Almost simultaneously.
The Gold Eating Bugs instantly pierced through the bodies and skulls of these cultivators of the Ghost Demon Sect.
After all, these Ghost Demon Sect cultivators didn’t possess a top-grade magic artifact like the Spirit Gathering Jade Pendant. Once they fell into the dream, they all stood rooted to the ground, incapable of any resistance.
Even at the moment of their death, they had no idea who had killed them.
One by one, they fell to the ground, bloodied.
“Who, who killed me?!”
Xu Tianze was scared out of his wits. His soul power was slightly stronger than the other cultivators of the Ghost Demon Sect, second only to that middle-aged cultivator, so he was barely able to break free from the dream spell.
Unfortunately, that was the limit.
The gap between the two sides was simply too great.
By the time he broke free from the dream, the Gold Eating Bugs had struck, instantly piercing his body, leaving him full of holes, like a rag.
Without having the time to use even a single spell, he died horribly on the spot.
“How can this be? I haven’t achieved immortality yet, I haven’t become a Foundation-building Cultivator yet?”
“How is it possible for me to die here, soundlessly and without any warning?”
“I… I can’t accept this.”
Xu Tianze was extremely unwilling, his facial expression twisted with fury.
He could not comprehend where his plan had gone awry, why he had been the victim of such an assassination.
Unfortunately for him, he could only continue being a confused ghost now.
Because even at the moment of his death, he had not seen the figure of his enemy.
Within the entire room, there were only the Gold Eating Bugs that were flying in mid-air, buzzing ominously, like fighter jets cruising, a sight that sent chills down one’s spine.
At that very moment, Zhou Sui, who was at home, perceived this scene through the power of his Clone.
“Ten Qi Cultivation ninth Layer Cultivators, practically annihilated in an instant with the power of the Dream Soul Gu and the Gold Eating Bug.”
“It seems that with my current battle power, I can be considered invincible within the Qi Cultivation Stage.”
“However, this Ghost Demon Sect Cultivator, who could resist the power of Dream Soul Gu for a moment, was indeed out of the ordinary.”
“It appears that having a Soul Artifact against soul attacks restricts the power of the Dream Soul Gu to a certain extent.”
“If it’s a Foundation-building Cultivator with Divine Consciousness Power, the Dream Soul Gu can’t reach the extent of instant kill.”
Zhou Sui stroked his chin.
He was quite satisfied with the results of this battle.
Although the Ghost Demon Sect Cultivator almost countered during the battle, from the result point of view, it was still an instant kill.
Even if the opponent had trump cards, they simply didn’t have time to react.
Such is the nature of a Cultivator’s battle.
Victory or defeat often decided in the blink of an eye.
There’s nothing like a long drawn-out battle of three hundred rounds.
It is like a gunman’s duel on the battlefield, finding an opportunity, and killing the opponent with just a single shot.
No need for a second shot.
It’s the same principle here.
Of course, this battle also made him realize the limitations of the Dream Soul Gu, it was not as invincible as he had imagined.
If the opponent possesses a treasure that can resist soul attacks, they could exhibit a great resistance, and it would basically be impossible for the Dream Soul Gu to instantly kill this type of Cultivator.
But he doesn’t think that the Dream Soul Gu is completely useless.
The reason Dream Soul Gu couldn’t deal with the Foundation-building Cultivators was only because the Dream Soul Gu was currently at the first stage.
If it advanced to the second stage, its power would also increase geometrically.
By then, the power of dreaming will become even more fierce, so even if the opponent has a Soul Artifact for defense, it will be futile.
It’s like wearing a bulletproof vest, but a powerful bullet can still penetrate it with a single shot.
At best, it can only resist the bullets of ordinary handguns.
This is a contest between a spear and a shield, seeing which side’s power is stronger.
“Even if it fails, it doesn’t matter. After all, it’s just the clone taking action. Even if discovered by the enemy, it’s only the clone that will suffer.”
“The power of the Dream Soul Gu, combined with the power of a clone, is virtually unbeatable from the start.”
“If I can’t beat it, run. If I can beat it, kill it instantly. It’s foolproof.”
Zhou Sui found that the power of these two Gu insects complemented each other perfectly, able to invisibly kill.
As for him, the original body, remote monitoring was enough. He didn’t need to take risks personally.
There’s no safer way to fight than this..
