There were thousands of millipedes in a black mass. They crawled very fast, and in the blink of an eye, the four masked warriors who lagged behind were eaten by the millipedes.
But the four masked warriors did not scream or struggle, as if they did not feel any pain.
There was a rustling sound, which was the sound of the millipedes crawling in rows of legs. There was also a creaking sound, like a door closing and opening, which was the sound of the millipedes gnawing at flesh and blood.
For a moment, looking at those black millipedes, I felt a chill on my back, as if a millipede was crawling onto my body and biting my flesh.
Magu may have chanted a series of spells to control the masked warriors, and those warriors began to run faster towards the direction of the offering pavilion. But even so, five of them died in the bite of the millipedes and turned into eerie white bones.
The skeletons were lying on the open ground, which was very scary.
Fortunately, several masked warriors escaped and rushed into the threshold of the offering pavilion in time.
The millipedes followed the dead soldiers and rushed up, densely packed.
Magu looked at me and said quickly, "Yang Tianyi, try using your fire talisman, it should be able to burn those millipedes to death!"
I stood there, staring at the millipedes in a daze, with a lot of cold sweat on my forehead.
After Magu's reminder, I quickly took out dozens of fire-burning talismans from my bag. Then I chanted the talisman, and under the urging of the Yin De Qi, I threw all the fire-burning talismans at the millipedes.
The millipedes that rushed to the front had their legs burned off by the fire talisman. Without their legs, they curled up into a ball.
After dozens of fire talismans were used, hundreds of millipedes were burned and shrunk into a ball.
However, there are too many millipedes, and the number of fire talismans I can activate at one time is limited. If I activate too many talismans, it will cause extreme loss of my Yin De Qi.
If that happens, the loss will outweigh the gain. So I won't be reckless.
Looking at the millipedes curled up in a ball, Magu nodded, then she turned her head to the dozens of ghost officials behind her and said, "Who among you has a fire-attributed underworld weapon in your hand? You can use it now to attack those millipedes."
"Fire can burn those millipedes!"
Fire-attributed underworld tools were still very common, and seven or eight of the ghost officials behind Magu had fire-attributed underworld tools in their hands. Then they all used their underworld energy to activate the fire-attributed underworld tools.
At once, flames were released from those underworld objects, bringing with them a fierce burning sensation, sweeping towards the millipedes that were swarming up again.
The effect was very good, and many millipedes curled up in the flames.
Oh, right, I suddenly thought of my underworld object, the Golden Crow Flute.
That Golden Crow Flute is a high-level underworld weapon. Although I used the Golden Crow Flute to deal with the ghosts in the wasteland a few days ago, and I also consumed the souls of several Golden Crow birds in the Golden Crow Flute, there are still a few Golden Crow bird souls left. They have flames on their bodies, which should be able to cause damage to those millipedes.
Thinking of this, I hurriedly took out the Golden Crow Flute from the cloth bag.
Then I mobilized the energy of Yin De and started to blow the Golden Crow Flute.
The Qi of Yin De poured in, and the short Golden Crow Flute instantly turned golden. The patterns of the Golden Crow birds carved beside the holes seemed to come alive, and their souls flew out of the holes of the Golden Crow Flute one after another.
“Ga ga ga!”
The cry of the Golden Crow bird soul is very sharp
profit.
As they cried, their souls rose into the air.
The soul of the Golden Crow Bird is golden in appearance, but the surface of its soul is covered with a lot of flames.
"Go, burn those damn bugs!"
I gave an order.
Then, the souls of the Golden Crow birds rushed towards the millipedes with sharp cries. The flames they carried were very strong. As soon as they came into contact with the millipedes, many of them were burned and curled up, and some were burned into black ash.
“Puff, puff, puff!”
I could also hear the sound of the millipede's body bursting and the sound of oil flowing out of its body.
Soon, with the cooperation of all of us, 70% to 80% of the millipedes were burned. The remaining millipedes, perhaps because they were afraid, began to retreat.
But there was that yellow powder behind them blocking them, and it was difficult for them to retreat.
Then I saw the millipedes begin to crawl quickly towards the southeast of the offering pavilion.
"call!"
I let out a long sigh and thought to myself, I am so exhausted. I used up a lot of my Yin De Qi just now to activate the Golden Crow Flute. After all, in order to activate the Golden Crow Flute, I need to inject Yin De Qi into it, which is very exhausting.
The souls of the remaining few Golden Crow birds were almost undamaged. After chirping a few times, they quickly dissipated and turned into golden spots of light, flying towards me.
The light spot slowly sank into the Golden Crow Flute.
Magu looked at the Golden Crow Flute in my hand and praised, "Tianyi, your underworld weapon is very good. It will come in handy against those millipedes!"
I smiled and nodded, saying, "I got this underworld artifact from Hei Wuchang. When I first got this 'Golden Crow Flute', Hei Wuchang felt very painful for a while!"
Magu then looked behind her.
She praised the ghost officials who had just used the fire attribute ghost tools, and promised to reward them. This made the ghost officials very excited.
By the way, I have to explain here that the Golden Crow Flute is a ghost instrument, and it is a consumable ghost instrument. Although the Golden Crow Flute itself needs ghost energy to be activated, as a consumable ghost instrument, if I, a mortal, want to use it, I must consume the Yin De Qi to activate the ghost energy in the Golden Crow Flute. Otherwise, I cannot use the ghost instrument.
Across the street, a few hundred meters away.
Lin Chengming was surprised to see that the millipedes were so easily taken care of by us. Although millipedes are not very powerful creatures, they are numerous. However, thousands of "millipedes" were eliminated and driven away just like that, which still surprised Lin Chengming.
"Damn it, it's all that kid from the mortal world. His underworld weapon is so powerful, it must be a high-level underworld weapon. It would be great if I could get it."
Yu Jianfeng said with some greed.
Lin Chengming glared at Yu Jianfeng fiercely and said unhappily: "You should worry about ourselves! I think Magu and the others seem to have made preparations in advance."
"Just now I deliberately observed Zhang Rong standing behind Magu. He was very close to Magu. If he used magic to attack Magu, she would definitely be injured."
"But there were so many good opportunities just now, but Zhang Rong didn't take action. I think the plan may have changed. Maybe Zhang Rong has already surrendered to Magu."
Lin Chengming's words made Yu Jianfeng's expression change suddenly.
"What? Zhang Rong surrendered to Magu? Impossible! Zhang Rong and I have the best relationship. He has always respected Master Zuo the most. How could he surrender to Magu? Besides, Master Zuo also thinks highly of Zhang Rong and has promised to
Once we seize the Gongyang Pavilion and Lord Zuo becomes the Pavilion Master, he will reward Zhang Rong as the Grand Protector of the Gongyang Pavilion!"
"How could Zhang Rong betray Lord Zuo! Lin Chengming, I won't believe anything you say!"
Lin Chengming glared at Yu Jianfeng fiercely and cursed, "Idiot! Zhang Rong is standing behind Magu now. He would have taken action when we were fighting those masked men just now. Does he have to wait until we are all dead before he takes action? "
Yu Jianfeng was filled with anger after being insulted by Lin Chengming.
He said angrily, "Lin Chengming, don't think that just because Lord Zuo asked you to bring us here to test us and command us, you can act cool in front of me, Yu Jianfeng. You and I are both captains of the Support Pavilion, and my strength is no worse than yours. If you insult me again, do you believe that I will tear your mouth apart?!"
Lin Chengming had a broad perspective and ignored Yu Jianfeng.
He turned sideways to look at Su Xiaoshan and asked, "Xiaoshan, what do you think about this matter?"
Su Xiaoshan licked his red lips, chuckled and said, "There's no need for you to argue about this matter. We can find out the answer by just trying. Didn't Lord Zuo ask Zhang Rong to give Magu the 'heart-eating poison'? Then we'll send someone out to compete with Magu later."
"If Magu is really poisoned, how can she be our opponent!"
Then Lin Chengming and Su Xiaoshan both stared at Yu Jianfeng.
Lin Chengming said with a cold face: "Yu Jianfeng, didn't you say that you trust Zhang Rong? In that case, you will deal with Magu later to test her strength. If Magu is really infected with the heart-eating poison, we will attack with all our strength. By then, I believe that Lord Zuo will definitely show up."
Upon hearing this, Yu Jianfeng's expression immediately became a little unnatural.
He frowned and said unhappily: "But, what if Magu is not infected with the 'heart-eating poison'? If that happens, I am no match for her! She might kill me!"
Su Xiaoshan stood aside, shrank his shoulders and said, "You and Zhang Rong are good brothers, so you trust him. Then go and test him! Who knows, Zhang Rong might give you support!"
At this moment, the sound transmission device on Lin Chengming's body suddenly rang.
It was a sound-transmitting object similar to a cigarette box, with underworld characters engraved on it.
Zuo Weiran's voice came from the sound transmission device, "Lin Chengming, send Yu Jianfeng to test Magu. Zhang Rong just sent a message saying that Magu has been poisoned. But I suspect the plan has changed. We will know only after testing. Maybe Zhang Rong has betrayed me!"
Then the sound transmission device was turned off.
Lin Chengming raised the corner of his mouth slightly and stared at Yu Jianfeng.
He said jokingly, "Brother Jianfeng, look, it's not us two who are asking you to go, but Lord Zuo. I think you also know Lord Zuo's temper. If you don't go, I'm afraid Lord Zuo will not let you go!"
Yu Jianfeng naturally knew what kind of person Zuo Weiran was. Especially during the past few days when he was with Zuo Weiran, he discovered that Zuo Weiran was not as simple as he seemed, but a ruthless person.
Although he felt a little helpless, Yu Jianfeng still walked out.
He said to Lin Chengming and Su Xiaoshan, "Okay, I will go and test Magu now. However, if Magu has been poisoned, we will just have to wait and see. When the time comes, I will not cover for you two slandering Brother Zhang Rong."
Yu Jianfeng's words made Lin Chengming and Su Xiaoshan frown slightly.
Lin Chengming's eyes were as sharp as knives, and he had already begun to hate Yu Jianfeng in his heart.
