Chapter 1162: Battle the Celestial State Again (part 1)

Looking at the 2 dead Real Pellet State Hellish-Insects on the ground, Peng Yue’s complexion was pale. He couldn’t believe his eyes.

“Are you… people from Taiqing Sect? Then who was that person just now?” Peng Yue asked a square-faced man from the Taiqing Sect.

“Below the Celestial State, the one who can easily kill these 2 Real Pellet State Hellish-Insects are of course our esoteric disciple, Liu Ming!”

Although the voice was not loud, it was clearly transmitted into the ears of every Nature Work Sect’s disciple present. Everyone was shocked immediately.

Peng Yue even stood there in a daze!

Although he once thought it might be Liu Ming when he heard the somewhat familiar voice of tiger roar, the strength of the other party made him deny this guess in an instant. After hearing the answer, the shock in his mind was conceivable.

After all, the “Liu Ming” they spoke of had roughly the same strength in his memory.

Although the battle here was still going on, because of the fall of the 2 Real Pellet State Hellish-Insect and the reinforcement of the Taiqing Sect, the counterattack of the human cultivators was fierce. The surrounding Hellish-Insects were immediately losing the favor.

…

One day after half a year.

To the southeast of Xuanmeng Mountain Range where the Ouyang Family was located, Nanming City with a population of nearly 10 million was originally located here, but at this moment, the originally huge city was no longer prosperous.

The Nanming River in front of the city had been dried, and the walls on all sides had already been ruined. Shops, buildings, even palaces and government offices in the city were also dilapidated.

The bodies of old, young, women and children with frightened faces could be seen everywhere. Under the scorching sun, the rotten smell spread everywhere.

If a cultivator scanned here with Divine Thought, he could see that there was no one alive in the entire Nanming City, except for tens of thousands of Hellish-Insects.

In the high sky in the northwest of Nanming City, there was a giant human form insect in the air that was obviously much bigger than the other Hellish-Insects.

It was red all over, its arms were like pincers, and there were faint black lights flowing on the red skin. A tail more than 6 meters long on the back swayed left and right in mid-air. Its aura had reached the Celestial State intermediate stage.

Behind it, there were more than 10 Hellish-Insect Clan giant worms whose cultivation level was obviously not low. Although they had not transformed into human form, they exuded the aura of the Real Pellet State.

At the same time, in an abnormally dense forest between Nanming City and Xuanmeng Mountain Range, dozens of human cultivators with different costumes were lurking here with restrained aura.

Judging from the costumes, these people come from Taiqing Sect, Demon Mystic Sect, Haoran Academy, and Ouyang Family. Their cultivation was all above the Crystallization Period, and there were more than 10 Real Pellet State cultivators among them.

“Fairy Ouyang, the information provided by your Ouyang Family before is not very reliable. Although there are indeed only a dozen Hellish-Insects in the Real Pellet State, but now there is 1 Celestial State intermediate stage. Are you sure that Liu Ming can attract it over successfully?” The person who spoke was the old man with white eyebrows dressed in Demon Mystic Sect clothing. There was a trace of impatience on his face.

“Although this Liu Ming is now a Real Pellet State later stage cultivator, I heard that he was still a Pseudo Pellet State cultivator more than a hundred years ago. I’m afraid he used some taboo mystic arts to forcibly advance. It’s okay if his own foundation is not stable, but don’t drag us down.” Another white-browed scholar from the Haoran Academy also said with disdain while waving a white jade paper fan.

“I would like to thank all my friends from afar to help our Ouyang Family. Since the Alliance has sent Senior Fellow Apprentice Liu to be in charge of this mission, there must be a reason. We just have to do what we are instructed to.” On the other side, a slender girl in a purple dress with picturesque features said lightly.

It was Ouyang Qian.

Although she said so, her eyebrows slightly frowned with a trace of worry.

After these years of confrontation with the Hellish-Insect Clan, the human cultivator and the Hellish-Insect Clan had now formed a balanced state. Many cultivators died in battle every day, and the major forces were even more exhausted.

The current situation of the Ouyang Family was not optimistic.

In addition to the southeast region, the northwest and northeast directions were now also occupied by the Hellish-Insect Clan army, and the number was more than here. In addition to Nanming City, more than 10 large cities or strongholds had been destroyed. The Ouyang Family was about to be uprooted.

Although the Mystic Comprehending State elders left the retreat and began to preside over the mountain protection array and the other 2 Celestial State elders who were not injured had already led the cultivators to resist, eventually, it would lead to irreparable losses to the family.

So the Ouyang Family had no choice but to ask the Alliance for help.

This woman just condensed the real pellet a few years ago. Now she was also ordered to come to contact with the reinforcements sent by the Alliance to jointly resist the tens of thousands of Hellish-Insect Clan army entrenched in the southeast, and the leader sent by the Alliance happened to be her acquaintance, Liu Ming, which made her feel at ease.

“Since Fairy Ouyang said so, I will wait and see what happens. I hope that the rumored Liu Ming will not disappoint me.” Hearing this, the white-browed scholar from the Haoran Academy gently fanned the white jade paper fan in his hand.

“Look, Senior Fellow Apprentice Liu is doing it!” At this moment, another Taiqing Sect wide-faced youth suddenly whispered.

When everyone heard the words, they immediately lifted their spirits and looked in the direction of Nanming City.

High in the sky in the northwest of Nanming City, the Celestial State human form Hellish-Insect, that was meditating, snorted and waved a red pincer forward.

Whoosh!

Immediately, an inconceivably large giant red pincer phantasm was condensed in the air and clawed forward. It was as large as 300 meters, and its whole body was glowing with raging red flames.

There was a wave of fluctuation in the space ahead, then a young man dressed in a green robe and surrounded by black air emerged. The figure blurred, and 3 identical figures emerged from it, then the 4 figures retreated at the same time.

Several loud noises!

The giant red pincer phantasm blurred and defeated 3 figures in an instant, then a yellow light emerged behind the last figure. When the giant red pincer phantasm was blocked by the yellow light, a silver light flashed and the figure accelerated.

“Hmph! Just a Real Pellet State later stage human junior, and you are trying to lure me away? You’re simply digging your own death! You guys stay here! I need to do some exercises!” The Celestial State human form Hellish-Insect instructed the others in the language of Hellish-Insect Clan, then he pursued in a red cloud.

“These human races are extremely cunning. Now a big battle is imminent. Any mistake is not allowed. You guys wait here. We will follow him.” Among the remaining 10 or so Real Pellet State Hellish-Insects, a Real Pellet State later stage beetle with a horn commanded the thousand low rank Hellish-Insects, then he brought 7 Real Pellet State Hellish-Insects to follow the Celestial State Hellish-Insect.

The young man who suddenly appeared in front of the Hellish-Insect Clan army was naturally Liu Ming!

Since he advanced to the Real Pellet State later stage, due to the tense situation in the mainland, he was frequently sent by Jin Lieyang to perform missions. Since he completed several missions very well, he was now regarded as the backbone of the Middle Sky Continent Alliance. In various missions, he was appointed as the team leader.

At this moment, he felt the huge spiritual pressure gradually approaching from behind. He frowned and increased the spiritual power output, then the silver wings sped up again, rushing toward the dense forest in front.

Seeing this, the Celestial State Hellish-Insect let out a strange shrill and chased forward.

In a blink of an eye, they flew past the dense forest from above.

When the Celestial State Hellish-Insect flew past the dense forest, he smirked and released several red hurricanes into the dense forest.

A burst of coercion swept over in an instant. The trees below were suddenly swayed from left to right, and the entire forest was about to be broken in half.

At this moment, in the dense forest below, dozens of figures rushed out from different directions, and each of them with panicked expressions quickly activated the aura of body protection.

Originally, everyone’s plan was to besiege the Celestial State Hellish-Insect from behind, but unexpectedly, the opponent saw through it in advance.

“Hmph, it really is a trap! Kill all these impudent humans!” In the air a thousand meters away, the Real Pellet State later stage beetle Hellish-Insect said so, then he led the Hellish-Insect Clan army into the dense forest.

After the Celestial State human form Hellish-Insect looked at Liu Ming who was not slowing down, he suddenly stopped and flicked his pincer toward a human cultivator below.

“Poof“, a giant pincer shadow appeared in the air and pinched toward the white-browed scholar.

The white-browed scholar was shocked. He tried to dodge, but it was too late.

A powerful coercion swept over. Before hitting the scholar, an invisible pressure had already affected him.

The white-browed scholar’s white protective aura suddenly dissipated. His chest trembled as if a huge boulder hit him, and he spurted a mouthful of blood.

The rest were all startled. They hurriedly activated their spiritual weapons and launched dozens of light beams to stop the giant pincer shadow from falling.

There were several loud impacts.

When the light beams hit the giant pincer shadow in the air, a terrifying aftermath erupted in an instant.

These attacks only dimmed the pincer shadow a bit, but they couldn’t stop it from falling. The white-browed scholar was about to be killed on the spot.

At this moment, a figure appeared behind the white-browed scholar like a ghost. Liu Ming, who realized something was wrong, returned immediately. He launched a house-sized tiger head phantasm at the pincer shadow.
