"Pudu Cihang, do you recognize me—"
The sound resounded throughout the heavens and earth, shaking the whole area. The buildings in the city creaked and shook slightly. The city residents who were standing in the streets and looking up, as well as the chickens and dogs in their homes and the wild beasts in the mountains, did not dare to make the slightest sound.
In the dead silence, the only sound was the creaking of the building and the falling dust.
"Is this a mountain?!" "It must be a monster..."
"It's bigger than the previous one... Run!"
"Oh my god, my mother is here!" "Everyone, go back to the house!" "The monster is coming!"
On the crowded long street, someone shouted and turned to run, scaring the others nearby who started running around. A wave of chaotic noise suddenly sounded, and in the distance, figures standing on the streets of the entire capital city scattered and ran back to their houses. The forgotten child cried out and stood alone in the crowd. Soon, his carefree parents came back, picked him up and ran back to their own house.
There were also some brave ones who stayed on the street, stopping to look at the huge black shadow that was like a mountain. They were dazzled, raised their hands, pointed in the direction, and shouted in shock.
"It's moving!" "Look, the shadow is moving!!!"
Among the people who were scared away, some stopped and turned to look at the distant sky. The moonlight that was originally obscured faintly revealed a hint of cold silver frost.
Then... there was a loud thump of feet stomping on the ground.
Ten miles away from the eastern suburbs, a frog's webbed feet crushed the ground, and the splashed dirt hit a big tree like a huge rock, knocking the tree down with its roots and soil.
The pair of tentacles of Pu Du Ci Hang, which originally had a huge insect body, were stretched straight at this moment. In the slight gap of moonlight, there were lumps the size of grave mounds, densely arranged and bulging.
“Hiss~~”
With a low and long hiss, it turned its red head and was about to float away in another direction. However, above the dusty black shadow, a long shadow broke out and reached into the moonlight, and a long scarlet tongue wrapped around the centipede's long body.
boom!
The frog's webbed feet pressed down deeply, then lifted up, stepped out and fell down, stirring up a circle of strong wind and dust, and the majestic sound like a bronze bell echoed between heaven and earth.
"You little centipede monster, you want to run away from me?!"
The long tongue was stretched tight and swung in the toad's mouth. Pu Du Ci Hang, which had originally run more than ten feet away, hung on its centipede and looked at the scholar and Taoist priest who were almost ten feet away. Its pincer-like mouthparts made a few "click" sounds and its whole body was dragged back.
"Is this an old toad??"
The Taoist looked at the huge figure, of which only the thighs could be seen, and swallowed his saliva.
At the side, Lu Liangsheng, who was using magic to heal his injuries, did not speak, but just nodded. In his eyes, the giant centipede's sharp, dense long legs were inserted into the ground, pulling out two rows of deep grooves and moving away.
“Hiss—”
Pudu Cihang twisted and screamed wildly. Its densely packed centipedes dug at the ground but could not stop the force of being pulled backwards. Amidst the screams, it suddenly turned its front body over, and amidst the sound of the hard shell rubbing against each other, it turned its red head to bite off the long tongue that was entangled in its middle body.
Swish!
The scarlet tongue suddenly retracted, and a frog webbed foot poked out of the darkness, grabbed Pu Du Ci Hang's head, and pressed down hard. With a loud bang, the centipede's head hit the ground hard, creating a big hole and splashing soil and rocks.
Lu Liangsheng, who was far away, stood up and took out the scroll of "Soul Burial in the Underworld" to block the front. The ripples of magic power spread, and the flying rocks and hard soil were directed away.
"I thought that Master only knew how to eat and brag..."
In the picture reflected in the bottom of the eyes, the moonlight could only illuminate half of the terrifying figure, riding on the long body of Pu Du Ci Hang like a mountain pressing down on one's head, one webbed foot pressed on the centipede's head, and the other webbed foot passed through the moonlight, covering it fiercely.
"Beat my apprentice!"
Bang!
The frog's webbed feet hit the centipede's head hard, and the energy rolled and shot out, causing the surrounding woods to fall down into a circle.
"Hit my apprentice?!"
The frog's flippers under the cover lifted up, and then fell down heavily with a loud sound.
Bang!
Pu Du Ci Hang's entire body, centipedes, and tentacles were all stretched straight by the smash.
"How dare you hit my apprentice."
"I told you to beat my apprentice!!"
"Tell you to look down on me!"
As the Toad Taoist spoke, the huge frog webbed feet raised and lowered, raised and lowered, bringing with them the wind and thunder...
Bang!
Bang!
Bang Bang—
The red-headed centipede's shell cracked into spider-web cracks, and some yellowish juice seeped out, sticking to the toad's webbed feet and pulling out sticky silk threads.
Before, Pu Du Ci Hang could still neigh a few times, but now it can hardly even make any calls.
After a while, the frog's webbed feet stopped falling, and the Toad Taoist casually broke off the centipede, making a crisp "crackling" sound.
“Hiss—” Pu Du Ci Hang raised his red head and let out a long, painful howl.
One of the long legs was put into the toad's mouth without being twisted off. It chewed it like sugarcane, sucking out the juice and tender meat inside with a crunch, and then spat out the broken shell with a "Puh" sound.
"It's not very good, but it tastes good."
'Snap'
Another insect leg was broken off and put into the mouth. Pu Du Ci Hang, who was pressed under the toad, was awakened by the severe pain.
hiss~~
'Transform into a dragon... Transform into a dragon...'
The insect's eyes saw the outline of a brightly lit city in the distance. With a hissing sound, it suddenly drilled its head into the ground, using the earth-escaping technique and digging with its centipede, quickly burrowing into the ground.
"That centipede monster is about to escape!"
"What should we do with this giant toad monster?"
Several chief judges of the City God's Division floating in the night sky wanted to chase after him, but were stopped by the City God in white, who glanced at another big monster.
"For us Yin Gods, protecting the people is our first priority. Go and protect the city to prevent the people in the city from being affected!"
"yes!"
A divine light flashed, dragging out a golden flame and instantly flew to the capital of Tianzhi. The land below was a messy wilderness. The Toad Taoist stood like a mountain, and his toad eyes swept to the tree on one side. The tiny disciple nodded slightly.
"Liangsheng, take a good look at what your master looks like at his peak!"
After regaining his demon form, the Toad Taoist could easily sense the direction of the centipede monster. After a moment, he spread out a pair of huge webbed feet, and the ground began to shake violently. Pieces of forests and roads collapsed under his feet.
“Pudu Cihang!”
After running more than ten steps, a majestic and upright voice spread, and the frog's webbed feet were raised high.
"Come out to me—"
The frog's webbed feet, raised high, slammed against the ground, and cracks spread in all directions. The ground in front of it banged and the soil flew open, and a long shadow with long whiskers and dancing feet broke through the ground, hovering in the air and rushing towards the city.
Boom boom boom…
The loud sound of footsteps spread and chased after them. As the frog raised its webbed feet and took a step forward, its round webbed head lightly scraped past a farmhouse. The wooden walls and roof suddenly popped up and were lifted up as a whole, throwing up darkness like flying sand and rocks.
In the house with empty walls and roof, the farmer and his wife huddled in a corner, hugging each other. They looked at the huge figure passing by overhead and trembled. Then they came to their senses and looked around.
Mumbling: "...Where is my house... Why is it gone..."
