Chapter 509 - The Flowery Corpse God Chrysalises

Dozens of days passed as they travelled. Zhong Yue and company were nearing to the other side of the insect planet. The planet rotate on its axis, and so one side of the insect planet was always dark and cold. Thus, few insects were willing to stay there, and only those that were partial to such environments elected to live there.

Zhong Yue and the others moved out from underground and glanced around. They saw mountains of ice filling across the land to the end of the horizon.

Krong——

Abruptly, the earth began to quake, and a deafening noise rumbled across the sky. Zhong Yue looked over from the ground and was stunned.

In front of them was a huge creature with a giant stomach, residing within the ice mountains. It was undoubtedly an insect, but its head was nowhere to be seen and the lower part of its body was connected with a huge eight-petal flower.

The flower was closed and bloomed continuously while the insect’s stomach slowly turned on its own. When the flower petals closed together, the stomach would move in another direction, and the petals abruptly bloomed while blasting out rays of lights into the darkness!

The insect along with the flower was 10,000 feet tall but the light rays that burst out from the flower were millions of miles long. The reaction force was so strong that the earth would quake every time the flower bloomed and the insect planet would be pushed a slight distance away from where it was before.

Even large chunks of ice were shaken from the ice mountains and sent crashing into the ground.

Zhong Yue and the crowd were totally stunned.

An insect with a flower-like lower body and was blasting rays of lights up in the sky and into the dark space.

Further away from there were also similar light rays like this piercing through the firmament. There were more than hundreds of the light rays in their vision!

The reaction force that came from the light rays was exactly what allowed the insect planet to move around in the endless universe!

These huge insects that were blasting out the light rays were, in fact, what propelled insect planet from one star to the other!

These insects were hybrids of insects and plants. Their heads were buried in the ground, devouring the energies of the earth while their bodies processed the pure energies and blast it out through the blooming of their flower lower bodies.

Just a few hundred of these insects were able to move a planet around in the universe, just how strong were the light rays!?

“Tian Mo Concubine, what are they?" Zhong Yue mumbled in question.

Tian Mo Concubine was also puzzled, she shook her head and replied, “I’ve never heard of them before…”

Zhong Yue turned to the insect magnate and asked, “What are these insects?”

The Horn Toad insect magnate who Zhong Yue refined lowered his head and said, “They are the Flowery Corpse God Chrysalis, also a Golden King Race. They are low in number and can’t move around, just like the plants. Only the mother queen can give birth to these insects, but even when they were produced, it was incredibly hard to nurture them. They need to implant themselves into god corpses, and they need to be irrigated with jade liquid and divine blood to fully mature.”

“Flowery Corpse God Chrysalis?”

Gu Hongzi mumbled, “How creative of the demon race to create such a race of insect.”

Tian Mo Concubine, Saint Concubine and the other demon ladies smiled proudly, Tian Mo Concubine said, “Of course, the demon race is on par with the celestial race and were rivals since the ancient days. Of course we are strong!”

Fang Jiange said placidly from the side, “But what a shame, the demon race can’t even control the weapons they made. In fact, the demon race was at one point in time, nearly overthrown by the insect race.”

The demon ladies glared at him but the human expert remained indifferent.

Qiu Jin’er quickly said, “People, if we killed these insects, then the insect planet will lose its engine!”

The crowd’s eyes lit up as they all nodded.

However, these Flowery Corpse God Chrysalises were too huge, they were definitely hard to kill.

Fang Jiange cast his divine sword up and slashed down heavily on one of the Flowery Corpse God Chrysalises closest to them. His divine sword was incredibly strong, and he wasn’t even afraid to fight face to face with the Imminent Deity magnates. Yet, with all of his strength in the strike, a few totem patterns that emerged from the surface of the Flowery Corpse God Chrysalis were able to fend it off completely.

Fang Jiange recalled his sword and furrowed his brows.

Gu Hongzi cast out his Yuan Shen as well and clawed over at the Flowery Corpse God Chrysalis. Once again, the totem patterns on the Flowery Corpse God Chrysalis’s surface endured the strike wholly, leaving it completely unharmed.

Qiu Jin’er and the others all gave their best shot, but none of them was able to leave even a single impression on the Flowery Corpse God Chrysalis.

“With me!" Zhong Yue said solemnly.

The Divine Wing Saber flew out from his Yuan Shen secret realms and the crowd along with the insect magnates they refined cast their arcane energy into the half-saint weapon.

It glimmered brightly, and in the blink of an eye, it slashed down at the Flowery Corpse God Chrysalis!

Krong——

The Flowery Corpse God Chrysalis was cut into half from the waist and the ice mountains around it were also cleaved cleanly into halves!

The earth shook, and suddenly, as the halved Flowery Corpse God Chrysalis fell to the ground, the residual light rays carved a deep valley in the ground!

Finally, as the Flowery Corpse God Chrysalis was completely drain of life force, the light rays also stopped.

“Oh my heaven…”

The experts were all stunned. The light rays were so strong that its power was no different to a divine weapon’s all-out attack. Thankfully, the Flowery Corpse God Chrysalis didn’t fall pointing toward them, otherwise, none of them would ever be able to survive.

It's a great toll on them casting the Divine Wing Saber, consuming more than half of their arcane energies. The crowd quickly took out the divine herbs and recovered their lost energy while moving toward another Flowery Corpse God Chrysalis.

With the same trick, they killed the second Flowery Corpse God Chrysalis.

After this, their journey of eliminating Flowery Corpse God Chrysalis started and along the way, there was one time they were nearly killed by the blasting light rays.

For tens of days, they carried on doing the same thing. More than a 150 Flowery Corpse God Chrysalises were killed, and the insect planet’s speed became notably slower. But there were still more than 200 of these Flowery Corpse God Chrysalis ahead of them that were still tirelessly working to drive the insect planet to the Ancestral Star.

Zhong Yue frowned, the divine herbs they had were nearly all consumed. If they continued on like this, they would start hurting the divine herbs’ core and inflict irreversible damage to the divine herbs. Especially the huge carrot Husan Weng, Zhong Yue ate all of its parts already.

The huge carrot saw that Zhong Yue was going to eat it again and it quickly shouted, “Don’t eat me anymore! I’m just one more bite away from permanent death!”

The medicinal pellets and jade liquids the demon ladies brought were all consumed. Without supplements like these, they wouldn’t be able to recover their lost energy . And without that energy, Zhong Yue wouldn’t be able to power up the Divine Wing Saber enough to kill the Flowery Corpse God Chrysalis.

Even the six insect magnates they refined were exhausted of their arcane energy, they wouldn’t be able to do anything much now.

“If we use up all of our leftover arcane energy, we can still take down three or even four Flowery Corpse God Chrysalises." Gu Hongzi had huge reserve of arcane energy, but even that was also nearing depletion. He frowned and said, “But is there a need to do so?”

Zhong Yue looked up into the sky, the insect planet’s speed was halved, meaning that the time it would now need to reach the Ancestral Star was effectively doubled.

“Still not enough, we need to take down more of these Flowery Corpse God Chrysalises. But if we go on like this, our energy will be depleted and the divine herbs will be fully consumed…" Zhong Yue locked his brow deeper.

Suddenly, he took out the copper lamp and he said, “People, please help me cast this copper lamp, this is our last try!”

The crowd looked at him and bestirred themselves. They surged their arcane energies into the copper lamp together and the copper lamp hovered in mid-air.

The dimensional space around the copper lamp started to twist and a Flowery Corpse God Chrysalis was sucked into the lamp.

With just casting the copper lamp to keep the Flowery Corpse God Chrysalises, the rate of arcane energy consumption was much lower than casting the Divine Wing Saber. But even so, they could only take in a little more than 10 Flowery Corpse God Chrysalises before becoming fully exhausted.

Zhong Yue was also panting for breath, he looked into the copper lamp and found the Flowery Corpse God Chrysalises strong enough to still be sustain inside of the lamp oil.

He said in his heart, Sixteen Flowery Corpse God Chrysalises, alright, that’s all we can do already. Time to move now.

He kept the copper lamp and hid himself in the Horn Toad insect magnate’s Yuan Shen secret realms and controlled the Horn Toad to move forward.

The crowd hid in the insect experts’ Yuan Shen secret realms as well and moved toward the light side of the insect planet.

As of now, they were all depleted of arcane energy and were trying their best to recover. They could only wish that they could stay out of the insect race’s radar by hiding in the refined insects’ Yuan Shen secret realms.

Not long after they left, the earth shuddered and a huge hole appeared on the ground. Hundreds of insect magnates swarmed out under the lead of Princess Jin Xiu and they quickly spread out in search of their preys.

Princess Jin Xiu glanced around and her face turned gloomy, she bellowed in anger, “DAMN IT!”

The remains of the Flowery Corpse God Chrysalises were scattered all across the place. Over 150 Flowery Corpse God Chrysalises were killed, more than half of the total numbers of the Flowery Corpse God Chrysalises!

The insect princess’ teeth were grinding in her mouth and she quickly ordered a speedy Golden King insect magnate to report the deaths of Flowery Corpse God Chrysalises to the Mother Queen Palace. While she herself led the rest of the insect magnates to hunt for Zhong Yue and the Ancestral Star experts.

“No matter where they are, I want them dead! Argh!!!!" Princess Jin Xiu was in great anger, she kicked the three-headed Pan Ao under her and said, “Lang Qingyun, you are the Pan Ao, can you smell where they are?”

Lang Qingyun hustled while smiling fawningly, “My great princess, you can count on your loyal servant. They were here not long ago, I can smell them and even if they are hiding in the insect Qi Practitioners’ Yuan Shen secret realms, I can still sense them. They won’t be able to run from us!”
