Chapter 220: We Must Be Dreaming

Compared to the size of half a finger of its companion, it was as big as an adult’s fist. The golden color of its wings was also dark gold, making it look extraordinary.

Most importantly, the ordinary Winged Golden Black Bug was only at grade one or two, but it was actually at grade three!

One had to know that no one had ever seen a third grade Winged Golden Black Bug before.

“How on earth did this Winged Golden Black Bug reach the third grade?”

Everyone was baffled. It should be known that the Winged Golden Black Bug would desperately absorb spiritual essence and spiritual power of living creatures, regardless of whether their body could withstand it or not, until they exploded and died. This was their nature, it had already become an instinct that could not be changed.

Therefore, it was very difficult for them to have high-level cultivation. After all, the Heavens had already given them great strength. They were already terrifying when they were only at the first or second grade. Even a strong practitioner like Fang Qingshan was helpless in the face of the Insect Tide.

If they were given high-level cultivation, even a city would be easily destroyed by them.

The third grade Winged Golden Black Bug came to Gu Xi and nodded.

The human-like action made everyone gasp. “What on Earth is it trying to do?”

“If I’m not wrong, this Winged Golden Black Bug must be the leader. No wonder it was able to lead such a large-scale Insect Tide. But what is its purpose?”

This could explain why the Winged Golden Black Bug, which had never set foot in human territory, came to the Moyu Tower. However, there were other sects within a radius of a hundred miles. Why did the Insect Tide choose them?

Fang Qingshan could not figure this out.

Gu Xi looked at the bugs in front of him. He nodded, but it was more like he was bowing. His attitude was very humble. However, the bugs did not have any obvious limbs. It was not obvious to others, but he could see it clearly.

This action was like a signal. The army of Winged Golden Black Bugs behind him was ready to attack.

Everyone’s heart was in their throats once again.

Although they did not understand what these Winged Golden Black Bugs were up to, their nature was like this. Could it be that they were going to launch an attack?

Just as they were feeling restless, the swarm of bugs split into many, and countless strands of them circled in the air, forming a huge pattern.

Fang Qingshan and the others almost thought that they had not woken up yet, and that they were hallucinating. “I, I’m not seeing things, right? That thing in the sky, it seems to be a pattern!”

Everyone looked at it for a moment, and Fang Qingshan said with uncertainty, “It seems to be some kind of mysterious totem.”

It even looked like a flower, but he did not say it out loud. It was too unbelievable, because no matter how they looked at it, it seemed a little stupid, and did not fit the habits of the Winged Golden Black Bugs.

For a moment, everyone’s minds were filled with thoughts. Could it be that this Winged Golden Black Bugs were holding some ancient ceremony?

However, the more Fang Qinyu looked at it, the more she felt that it was familiar. She said in astonishment, “Father, what are you talking about? What mysterious totem? Isn’t this the Silverblue Flower?”

The Silverblue Flower was the most common flower in the Phantom Forest. It was not strange that the swarm of insects could piece together its pattern.

The key was that these were Winged Golden Black Bugs! An existence that would make people tremble in fear at the mere mention of it was now facing a person who had lost all his cultivation. If they had not seen it with their own eyes, no one would believe it even if they were to say it out loud.

“Look! The pattern has changed again.”

It was probably the first time they had pieced it together. The Winged Golden Black Bugs were still unfamiliar with it and it took them a long time to identify what it was. However, as time went on, their speed became faster and faster, and everyone could see it more clearly.

“Isn’t this Dragon Flame Grass, Snow Glazed Lotus, Ice Fire Heaven Spirit…”

All kinds of flowers and plants appeared in front of everyone.

It could be said that the Insect Tide was changing rapidly. In just a moment, a ferocious black bear appeared in the sky. It was exactly the same as the one Fang Qinyu had seen in the forest.

Everyone was instantly stunned on the spot. They stammered, “Isn’t this the Violent Demon Bear…”

When they were in danger back then, the appearance of the Violent Demon Bear was definitely not mistaken.

They were almost numbed by what they saw. The scene before their eyes was dazzling. If not for the surrounding environment reminding them, they would have thought that they had returned to the Phantom Forest.

“Could it be that I’m dreaming?”

Previously, it was just simple herbs and plants. Later on, even the various demon beasts were able to change and become lifelike. One could not help but sigh at the speed at which they were learning.

Gu Xi was watching with great interest. No one noticed that there was a little bug with golden wings on his hair. It was also dancing around.

Those black bugs seemed to have been injected with some kind of stimulant, and they were even more energetic in their performance.

As the crowd was quite a distance away from Gu Xi, Little Ancient was hidden in his hair. With its small size, it was not easy to be noticed.

Such a strange scene was simply unheard of. If it was in the past, everyone would definitely think that it was a joke. Even if the truth was right in front of them, they would still feel as if they were in a dream.

They had to admit that the Insect Tide before them might be trying to curry favor with Gu Xi. This realization shocked everyone!

“Just what kind of background does he have to be able to make the Insect Tide do this?”

Everyone’s expression had become numb. Even if there was a hole in the sky right now, it would not make them feel anything strange. This was because what they were experiencing now had already exceeded common sense.

Even though there were so many funny and strange actions, the pressure brought by the Winged Golden Black Bugs was real. Many disciples had already lowered their heads. They were not in the mood to appreciate it. Very few people were able to survive the Insect Tide.

This was fear that came from instinct.

Looking at Gu Xi’s calm and even relishing expression, many people felt admiration in their hearts. In the face of such an Insect Tide, he did not even blink his eyes. He was truly a God.

After an unknown amount of time, this ‘dance’ finally came to an end. Everyone was shocked, astonished, and feeling all sorts of different emotions.
