Dark Blood Age

Chapter 132: Chapter 132 The Red-shelled Insect’s Natural Enemy

Originally, Chu Yunsheng planned to sort out some cultivation methods from the ancient book for Lu Yu and Yao Xiang. But since last night, he realized that if he was not careful, the cultivation method he gave out not only would not help them, but also it might kill them.

On the next day, Chu Yunsheng took the little tiger and went out of the city right after Yao Xiang’s group left the city. Ding Yan and the rest of five dark warriors were staying behind to guard the office building.

The little tiger was his lookout. With its help, Chu Yunsheng could easily avoid contacting a large swarm. Where he was staying right now was the place where he met Duan Danian the first time. It was the place where Duan Danian tried to rob him.

This place was surrounded by hills, so even if he was discovered by a swarm, he would still be able to get away easily.

Monster Seal Talisman was powerful, but it also consumed a lot of Yuan Qi. It consumed Yuan Qi three times more than a glacier talisman

A level-three offensive talisman such as glacier talisman would consume him 15 units of Yuan Qi, With his second sub stage’s ability, he was only able to store 60 units of Yuan Qi at maximum. So a monster seal talisman, which consumed 45 units of Yuan Qi was still luxury stuff to him.

It would be not really worth it If he just used it to seal a red-shelled insect,

Sometimes, some things could not simply be measured by numbers. For example, Chu Yunsheng’s sword-fighting techniques. Each time he used it, it would consume him 10 units of Yuan Qi. Its power was almost the same as a level-three offensive talisman. But the advantage of a level-three talisman was that it could be stored for later use.

The same thing applied to master seal talismans, as long as the monster didn’t die, he would be able to use it repeatedly. The injured monster could be healed by infusing Yuan Qi inside the talisman to nourish it. The monster would slowly recover by itself.

So every option had its advantages, he would need to decide which option would be more suitable based on the situation he was facing.

Originally, he stole a lot of Yuan Qi. However, he gradually used almost half of them. At the moment, he had only four level-two absorption talismans left. The level-three absorption talisman was already empty.

His current plan was to try to absorb monsters’ Yuan Qi and use monsters’ Yuan Qi to kill more monsters.

Although one red-shelled insect could only provide him two units of Yuan Qi, which was not a lot. It was still better than nothing. In order to preserve as much energy as possible, he wore the combat armor and fought the red-shelled insect from close range most of the time.

He didn’t dare to go out of the green dragoon mountain’s mountain range, because he didn’t know what was beyond the mountain range. He still remembered the flaming monsters and the gigantic leg monster. There could be even more monsters that were more powerful than the red-shelled insects.

He made a monster seal talisman when he killed 30 red-shelled insects. He also froze one red-shelled insect and tortured it almost to death before he sealed it.

Because he didn’t dare to fight with a large swarm, after he spent 6 hours, he was only able to seal two red-shelled insects. He really wanted to seal a golden-shelled insect. Only the golden-shelled insect could be used to surprise the enemy during the attack!

However, during those 6 hours, he didn’t encounter any single one of them.

At around 14:00, Chu Yunsheng and the little tiger were taking a break at a mountain col. Although he was not exhausted, 6 hours of killing still had a little bit of impact on his body.

It wasn’t long after the little tiger was fed, the little tiger started to show signs of detecting dangers. Chu Yunsheng instinctively thought that it was a large swarm coming towards them, so he immediately hid into the cave that he had dug earlier.

But soon, he was surprised to hear human screams. He knitted his brows and crawled to the higher ground. Using the night vision goggles that Ding Yan gave to him, he looked at the direction where the screams came from.

Through the night vision goggles, all he saw were just green figures. The shimmery light in the sky wasn’t bright enough, so he couldn’t see them clearly. All he saw was a group of around 30 red-shelled insects attacking a group of around 20 humans.

Then screams were made by them.

Without spending too much time thinking, Chu Yunsheng guessed that those people must be the refugees from the other cities, and they could survive this long, it meant that most of them were the awakened humans. If they were ordinary people, they would have been dead on the way here already.

Through the night vision goggles, Chu Yunsheng could tell that there must have been at least 8 dark warriors. Of course, they have not entered Jin Ling city yet, it seemed inappropriate to call them dark warriors at the moment.

Chu Yunsheng could tell that they were exhausted, it didn’t seem like they could hold on much longer. After using the goggles to glance over areas, he didn’t seem to find any other red-shelled insects, so he quickly made up his mind and said to the little tiger, “Go!”

He was a cautious man, but it didn’t mean that he would watch those people die. As long as he was sure that he could win, and even if he couldn’t win, if he would be able to run away, he would still try to save other people.

It could be a tough task to kill 30 red-shelled insects, but Chu Yunsheng believed that with 8 dark warriors, he was still able to do it.

After Chu Yunsheng got closer, he noticed that there was someone in the group he was familiar with. She was Zhou Tingyun, the girl who was on the same escort team with him and Qian Deduo back when he was helping Dong Shen university!

The red-shelled insect’s reaction was very fast, but Chu Yunsheng’s speed was even faster after he wore the combat armor. Within a split second, he hacked the sword deep into a red-shelled insect’s body, the red-shelled insect only had a chance to turn around, then it was cut into halves.

But he did not stop there. He jumped up, pulled the sword back, and once again used the sword-chop form to kill the second red-shelled insect that was charging towards him!

Then he swung the sword horizontally to use the Sword-Slice Form to slice through the claws of a red-shelled insect that was attacking from his right. The little tiger immediately jumped up and used its claws, which were filled with the metal elemental energy, to rip the insect’s head and chewed off its head.

Chu Yunsheng and the little tiger’s sneak attack instantly killed three red-shelled insects. At first, it shocked everyone on the scene, then everyone was thrilled.

Although Chu Yunsheng was wearing the combat armor, and no one knew who he was, he killed the insects, which meant he was with them.

Only Zhou Tingyun suddenly felt that she was very familiar with the combat armor.

When Chu Yunsheng was just about to attack the rest of red-shelled insects, the situation suddenly changed.

More than 20 red-shelled insects suddenly stopped the attack for a second, then they scattered and ran away in panic.

They scattered and ran away in panic!!!

Chu Yunsheng was sure that he was not hallucinating. He had seen red-shelled insects retreat before, but he had never seen a group of red-shelled insects run away in different directions in such a panicky way.

He did not think that it was him that scared those insects away, it must be some other reasons.

The little tiger was also as confused as him!

‘Run!’

When facing the unknown, Chu Yunsheng’s first thought was to run!

Meanwhile, a strange monster was running towards Chu Yunsheng at an incredible speed from the direction that he was about to run to.

The monster had a huge head and a long tail. Its body was a dozen times bigger than a red shelled-insect, and it was running on its two feet.

Once it approached a red-shelled insect, its head instantly split into two parts. Several tentacles quickly shot out from the “mouth” between its half heads, wrapped the insect that attempted to escape, lifted the insect up, and pulled it back to its mouth. After a few cracking sounds, it spat out a broken red shell on the ground!

It did not seem to be interested in humans, although its tentacles could completely wrap around everyone here, none of its tentacles was shooting towards a single human.

In just a few minutes, it “ate” six red-shelled insects!

Chu Yunsheng quickly picked up the little tiger. He did not dare to run away. This monster’s speed was not slower than him, it also had many tentacles, which could easily catch the little tiger and him. Since it was not interested in any humans, he just slowly moved backward. If the strange monster started to attack him, he would immediately use all his strength to unleash the sword fighting technique!

However, the strange thing happened once again, after the monster ate all the red-shelled insects that did not run away in time, all its tentacles quickly retracted to its heads. Then the two parts of its head slowly merged until there were not any gaps between them. It was like the head had not split earlier!

Only when the monster turned around and was about to leave, did Chu Yunsheng notice that there was a woman, who dressed in white, standing on the back of the monster. The woman was surrounded by the fierce ice elemental energy, and Chu Yunsheng couldn’t help but feel like he seemed to have seen her somewhere before.

“How pathetic! The only descendant of the human race!” said the woman dressed in white. She then left quickly with the monster. It was so inexplicable that Chu Yunsheng didn’t even know if she was mocking them or she was just lamenting.
