Chapter 940: Chapter 577: Insect King Appears, Great King Battles! (Double-Length)_2

Especially the ones from Yan Province.

Using this Bird Race Great Demon with a Celestial Phoenix Bloodline can exchange for immense benefits from those old fellows.

Of course, the Insect King was not planning to let it go.

He reached out and grabbed across the air, instantly forming an invisible force, like a giant hand, once again imprisoning Su Qingqing and the others.

Unwilling to give up, Little Phoenix condensed another Divine Fire Wheel, slicing towards the Insect King.

However, the Insect King simply raised another hand casually and crushed the Divine Fire Wheel on the spot.

Meanwhile, Su Qingqing attempted to use her Demon Eyes to forcibly control the Insect King once more.

But the Insect King was unaffected, whereas Su Qingqing suffered a backlash from the Pupil Technique, injuring her Divine Soul and coughing up blood profusely.

The power disparity between them and the Insect King was simply too great.

To the extent that they had no ability to resist and were captured once again.

"Don’t waste my time any longer..." the Insect King said impatiently.

Before the Insect King had finished speaking, a piercing slicing sound was detected by his Demon Soul.

He lifted his hand, and a Demon Power created a ghastly pale cyclone in front of him.

The next moment, the small space in front of the cyclone suddenly twisted, and an invisible Sword Qi appeared out of thin air, slashing at the cyclone generated by his Demon Power.

Boom!

A violent energy shock penetrated the hundred-mile-long sky.

The Insect King continued to stand coldly in place, while the cyclone split into four small streams, spreading around him.

The Insect King’s gaze fell beside Little Phoenix, where a Light Gate opened, unveiling a familiar yet never before seen figure.

"Although the events unfolded differently than I expected, at least it brought you out, Human King Song Changming..." the Insect King slowly said while looking at the newly appeared Song Changming.

"Have you been so eager to see me?" Holding a saber in one hand, Song Changming clenched his other hand into a fist and struck out, shattering the invisible imprisoning force on Su Qingqing and the others.

"Young Master!" Su Qingqing and her companions felt as if they had found their backbone, suddenly calming down.

"We can discuss more later." After ensuring the three were only slightly injured and their lives were not in danger, Song Changming relaxed.

The immediate focus was on the Insect King before him.

"Of course, after killing so many of my lovely and talented children, how could I not want to meet you?"

While speaking, the Insect King began to cast his Demon Technique.

Although this was not his chosen ambush site, rendering much of his preparations void, he still intended to kill Song Changming today to resolve this imminent threat once and for all.

This matter had been dragging on for too long.

As Song Changming’s strength and cultivation grew, the unease in his heart intensified.

He admitted that Song Changming’s rise had severely disrupted his future plans.

Never had he been so passive in front of a mere Human Race brat.

"You all should return to Fox Mountain first." Song Changming said to Su Qingqing and the others, noting the surging energy due to the Insect King’s Demon Technique.

"Young Master..." Little Phoenix was reluctant to leave; she perceived the formidable strength of this enemy and wished to help Song Changming with her Divine Fire.

"Little Phoenix, listen to the Young Master!" Su Qingqing took a deep breath, glaring fiercely at the Insect King as she spoke.

From the previous scene, she knew very well that even with Little Phoenix, they couldn’t offer much help to their Young Master.

On the contrary, staying might become a burden.

Not to mention there was Song Ping’an nearby, who also couldn’t stay here and needed to be escorted away.

Hearing Su Qingqing and the Young Master both, Little Phoenix had no further objections, flying off in silence, speeding towards Fox Mountain.

Su Qingqing was also anxious.

If the Insect Race was indeed here to lure and confront Song Changming, they must be well-prepared, and she feared her Young Master might suffer and thus needed to return to Fox Mountain quickly to seek aid from the Fox Race.

Within Fox Mountain were powerful figures whom even the Insect Race feared; if they were willing to assist, they could undoubtedly help the Young Master weather the storm.

The Insect King watched Su Qingqing and the other three leave without stopping them.

The capture of the three was primarily to lure out Song Changming, and perhaps plant a Gu Insect on them to further harm this Human King later.

Now that the plan was disrupted, these prerequisites were no longer necessary.

Today, only Song Changming needed to be left behind!

The Insect King’s Demon Techniques quickly took shape.

As energy surged forth, countless white shadows flowed from the Insect King’s body, covering the area within a hundred miles.

It transformed into a shadowy Insect Cage.

"Such a powerful Demon Technique..."

Song Changming sharply detected the space within this massive Insect Cage was solidified.

The Insect Cage’s flowing shadows were restraining this piece of space.

To verify his thoughts, Song Changming took out a Copper Mirror Fragment, attempting to activate it and open a Teleportation Light Gate.

As expected, the Light Gate did not open as usual, the Copper Mirror’s space-traversing ability rendered ineffective beneath this Insect Cage.

Undoubtedly, this showed that the Insect King knew him well enough to set up this Insect Cage immediately upon seeing him, just to prevent him from escaping using the Treasure Mirror.

Seeing this, Song Changming grimly unsheathed the God-devouring Saber, attempting to slash at the Insect Cage again.

He quickly discovered that not only was the Treasure Mirror unusable, but even his spatial attribute Sword Form, Dimension Slash, was limited, losing its original power.

This slash didn’t disrupt the Insect Cage.

It was clear that breaking through this Insect Cage would not be an easy task.

Additionally, even the Heaven and Earth Ring on his finger could not be opened.

"As expected of the Insect Race King, your methods are indeed impressive." Song Changming said, maintaining composure without panic despite being trapped.

Realizing the Insect Race was targeting his companions, he himself was not prepared to let things slide.

Even if the Insect King had set an ambush for him, he felt confident in facing the battle.

He was determined to see just how powerful this Insect King truly was!

The Insect King let out a cold snort, his white hair growing endlessly, dangling beneath him, then began flying behind him with his Demon Power.

He wasted no more words, not wanting to drag out time with Song Changming.

With a palm strike, vast Demon Power surged forth, transforming into a massive Demon Palm, slamming down towards Song Changming.

Almost simultaneously, Song Changming swung his saber.

He didn’t harbor any probing intentions, this slash already carried the Silent Extinction Blade Intent!

The Martial Technique of Silence, fully unleashed!

A single slash, a slender blade light instantly shattered the Demon Palm falling from the sky, continuing towards the Insect King.

The Insect King squinted his eyes, realizing the extraordinariness of this slash.

Still standing where he was, the floating shadows on the Insect Cage drifted out, intercepting Song Changming’s slash.

"Martial Arts, huh..." The Insect King, having fought numerous Human Race powerhouses in the past, naturally knew the power of Martial Arts.

This can be considered the pinnacle of Human Race martial techniques, possessing terrifying power to affect the heavens and the earth.

In ancient times, even Human Race experts wielding Martial Arts could display might akin to that of Immortal Gods.

Though Martial Arts has long since declined in the Human Race, there are still those who master these highest martial arts techniques.

For Song Changming to master Martial Arts was not surprising to him.

On the contrary, given Song Changming’s illustrious battle record, it would be more unusual if he hadn’t mastered a Martial Art.

Seeing the Insect King easily blocking his slash, Song Changming moved immediately, transforming into a blue-black thunderbolt, approaching the Insect King in an instant.

Another head-on slash!

This time, myriad Witch Seals enhancing speed and strength emerged all over him, the force of this slash layered relentlessly with no reservations!

Now, as the Insect King felt the blade might capable of annihilating heaven and earth, he could no longer relax.

Demon Art: Insect King Venerable!

Ancient auras interwove, a colossal ancient tooth insect manifesting from the Insect King’s Demon Power, colliding straight with Song Changming’s slash.

Buzz!

The next moment, before the Insect King’s eyes, was a deathly silent void, as if the universe had returned to a frozen state before the Big Bang.

Time, space, energy, laws, everything seemed meaningless at this moment.
