Faced with the black iron worm, everyone became nervous.
Taoist Qingshan observed his surroundings vigilantly: "Don't let it get on you. Our protective Qi can't withstand a few bites from it. Once it bites through your skin and flesh and gets into your body, you're dead. It will go all the way into your bones and chew you from the inside out until nothing is left."
No wonder Xiaobai is not afraid of the demon corpse, but is afraid of this kind of small beetle.
Not only are their bodies as hard as iron, but they also feed on black iron sand. One alone is not scary, but as Mo Yun said, if a large number of such black iron insects suddenly emerge, it would be a very terrifying scene.
The black sand dunes suddenly surged like waves again. Grandma Butterfly ran forward frantically. From where she had just stood, black sand surged out like a fountain, and thousands of black iron worms poured out from under the black sand.
There were at least seven places outside Ye Feng and his group where black iron insects were spewing out. They were so densely packed and mixed with the black sand that they could not be distinguished at all.
The ten people had to stand together with their backs together and kill the crawling black iron insects with flying swords.
Grandma Butterfly seemed to be most afraid of these beetles. She was so frightened that her voice became distorted: "We are surrounded, we are surrounded, let's fly out with our flying swords."
In this desperate situation, Taoist Qingshan and Master Wunian decided to fly out of the encirclement.
A dark cloud was suspended in the gloomy sky, expanding above their heads.
Mo Yun pointed at the dark clouds in the sky and said, "You can't use a flying sword. Besides, the color of the black iron bug is similar to the black sand. You don't know where to land."
Ye Feng felt a wisp of demonic energy floating in the air, and his thoughts extended vigilantly to the surroundings. Although there was no one around, Ye Feng could feel a very strong demonic energy just under the sand dunes not far away.
Ye Feng warned everyone: "We have been tricked. The black iron bugs and the dark clouds in the sky were all caused by that demon. He is under the sand dunes three miles away. He drove the black iron bugs here and is waiting for us to use our flying swords. If we use our flying swords, we will probably fall into his trap."
Grandma Butterfly didn't believe it: "Where are the demons? Are you hallucinating?"
The surrounding black iron insects seemed to be more interested in the black iron filings in the dull sand. They ate the black iron filings while surrounding Ye Feng and the others.
"I don't care. I'm going to use Feiquan to break through."
Taoist Qingshan used his flying sword to kill several black iron insects that approached him. Looking at the densely packed black iron insects, he felt his scalp tingling and his whole body felt so irritated that it almost exploded.
He pointed his finger lightly, and the flying sword in his hand emitted a dazzling light, wrapped him up, and flew into the air. He was also worried about triggering a heavenly calamity, so he flew very low, just hoping to safely pass through the encirclement of the black iron insects.
At the moment when Taoist Qingshan's lightsaber was suspended in the air, a huge bolt of lightning, like a sharp sword, split the sky and smashed Taoist Qingshan's lightsaber into pieces. Taoist Qingshan instantly fell from above everyone's heads into the desert.
Whoosh, countless black iron insects jumped up from the black sand, forming a black mass, and scrambled to land on Taoist Qingshan's body, face, and arms.
In the blink of an eye, Taoist Qingshan's body was covered with a thick layer of black iron insects.
At the beginning, driven by the desire to survive, he struggled desperately, trying to sweep the black iron insects off his body, but the black iron insects fell from mid-air, crawled out of the sand, and gathered more and more.
Soon, he let out a shrill scream, then became silent and stopped struggling.
Not only his body, but even his black iron flying sword disappeared.
Everyone stared in amazement as Taoist Qingshan disappeared from their sight, and they had no way to rescue him.
"These guys are too tough, and the bite force of their teeth is almost as strong as that of a gold-eating beast."
Ye Feng suddenly thought of a way to release the gold-devouring beast from the beast taming order.
Gold-eating beasts like to eat gold, and these black iron insects like to eat black iron.
They are all ferocious beasts that eat metal. Could they be relatives? Maybe they can be flexible and let us pass.
The gold-eating beast has been upgraded to a level six ferocious beast, so it should not be afraid of these little beetles.
The sixth-level ferocious beast, the Gold-Swallowing Beast, had a huge head and a fierce face. It stared at the densely packed black iron insects in front of it. Its eyes were even bigger than Xiaobai's.
Xiaobai whined at it twice and said, "Xiaojin, you are scared too. Come to me quickly and stay away from them."
Ye Feng smiled bitterly: "Brother Gold Devourer, you people who are obsessed with eating strange foods are really terrible. You finally found someone who can eat more than you."
Seeing that the gold-devouring beast did not make any movement, Ye Feng planned to take the gold-devouring beast back.
However, the gold-eating beast's next move surprised Ye Feng.
The gold-eating beast stretched out its short legs and ran towards the black iron worm, extending its large, golden tongue, just like a frog catching an insect, and then quickly rolled it up and retracted it.
Then I heard a crunching sound coming from its mouth.
Those black iron insects seemed to sense the danger and separated to both sides like a tide. They did not dare to encounter the gold-devouring beast and kept a certain distance from it.
However, the gold-devouring beast was jumping and leaping, making a roaring sound from its mouth, and rushed towards the black iron worms. Wherever it passed, its big golden tongue rolled up and caught dozens of black iron worms.
The tongue of the gold-eating beast seems to have an automatic recognition function. It extends out and reels quickly, never getting stuck with sand, and always being able to eat the black iron worm.
Ye Feng was overjoyed. He blew a whistle and ordered the gold-eating beast to open a passage for him and his men.
The gold-devouring beast was very happy and shouted excitedly while wolfing down the black iron worm. When the black iron worm encountered the gold-devouring beast, it was like encountering its natural enemy and immediately retreated like a tide.
Just now, the black iron worm was about to engulf them, but the next moment, it retreated. Everyone felt excited about escaping death.
Looking at the gold-eating beast that was shaking its head and eating the black iron worm, Sister Juan smiled in surprise and said, "Gold-eating beast, Ye Feng actually raised a gold-eating beast."
Mo Yun stroked his white beard and asked in confusion: "I didn't see you release it. You always release the Flame Tiger, Teng Snake and the like to fight with others. This little gold-eating beast is the first time I've seen it."
Ye Feng smiled and said, "It is small in size, so it will be at a disadvantage when fighting with ancient warriors, but when it encounters a black iron worm, it can exert its great power."
Helen asked with a smile: "How do you know that the gold-eating beast is the nemesis of the black iron worm?"
"I'm just trying it. After all, it's the same as the Black Iron Bug, both of them are exotic and ferocious beasts. Besides, it has already reached level 6, so it should be able to deal with these Black Iron Bugs."
Master Wu Nian looked at Ye Feng with admiration and bowed to him: "Amitabha, Sect Master Ye is truly a god. I wonder what other pets Sect Master Ye has. If they are also capable of dealing with the black iron bugs, why not summon them out to expand the results of the battle?"
