Lin Xu’s face didn’t look very good. In the past, he didn’t dare to contradict Feng Jiuyuan, but now, with matters concerning life and death, Lin Xu couldn’t care about that anymore. He said, “Then why should I go out?”
“Don’t you also possess the fire elemental spirit root?” Feng Jiuyuan, a genius among geniuses, had several types of spirit roots, including the fire elemental.
After hearing what Lin Xu said, Feng Jiuyuan looked at him with a mocking smile. “I didn’t say I won’t go out. Why are you in such a hurry?”
“I suggested trying a fire attack.” Jing Chen, seeing the two arguing, furrowed his brow. “I didn’t say we should only use fire attacks and nothing else.”
“There are too many of these bee swarms, and they’re so big. Maybe a fire attack won’t work either. Let me handle this.” After saying this, Jing Chen summoned the Dragon Song Qin.
Seeing him summon the Dragon Song Qin, Feng Jiuyuan’s gaze became much more serious. “Jing Chen, do you really think you’re the master of the Dragon Song Qin now?”
“Do you remember the incident half a month ago when you were injured using the Dragon Song Qin?”
“You guys are so noisy.”
Huang Quan interrupted them: “The great priest is not in a hurry. What are you in a hurry for?”
Several people heard this and stopped arguing, looking at the high priest: “Great priest, do you have any means?
Huang Quan was not surprised at all, looking up at the sky.
The formation beneath his feet expanded, and a formation appeared above his head, perfectly corresponding to the one below, spreading out to cover the surroundings.
Soon, the formation stopped spreading.
The bee swarm was too massive, and the area the formation could cover was limited, only covering half of the swarm. The other half of the bees were outside the formation, but this was enough.
First, eliminate half, then deal with the rest!
As the high priest completed his spell, millions of spiritual energies were simultaneously released from both formations above and below!
The bee swarm covered by the formation was now locked in place, unable to escape. They buzzed chaotically within the formation, but it was futile. The attacks from the formation were extremely dense, raining down like a storm. The poisonous bees had no way to evade the attacks and were struck down one after another.
One by one, the poisoned bees fell to the ground, their fist-sized bodies hitting the ground with a thud and then disappearing, as if they had never existed.
This was the challenge set by the Tower Realm, where everything inside would disappear upon death.
More and more poisoned bees fell and disappeared, no longer able to attack the barrier, flying around chaotically, trying to escape.
“Well deserving of being the Grand Priest of the Apocalypse.” Seeing this scene, Lin Xu was no longer angry, remarking, “Indeed as formidable as the rumors say.”
The high priest remained silent, looking indifferently at the poisoned bees, his thoughts unknown.
After some time passed, the high priest turned to Huang Quan and said, “Handle the rest.”
“You handle the rest.”
Huang Quan looked bewilderedly at the high priest. “Are you serious?”
She had indeed demonstrated high strength, but so far, she had only shown her martial prowess. It wasn’t that martial prowess couldn’t handle those poisoned bees, but spiritual power would obviously be more effective against them!
The high priest was certainly capable of handling it himself, so why suddenly leave the remaining half to her?
“Yes,” nodded the high priest. “I’m serious.”
Huang Quan: “…”
The high priest continued as if he hadn’t seen Huang Quan’s speechless expression. “I’ll take them ahead for a while, and you cover the rear. We’ll wait for you up front.”
Before leaving, the high priest added, “I believe you can handle it. Keep it up.”
Huang Quan: “…”
God damn it, keep it up.
Jing Chen believed Huang Quan could handle it, so he wasn’t worried.
Feng Jiuyuan smiled and said, “Huang Quan, I can stay and help you.”
“Only Huang Quan stays here.” The high priest looked coldly at Feng Jiuyuan. “If you want to stay, then stay the whole time.”
Feng Jiuyuan: “…I didn’t mean to stay the whole time.”
“Feng Jiuyuan,” Jing Chen said, “trust Huang Quan. After all, she’s seen dragons. If she can’t handle this danger, how could she face powerful dragons?”
After hearing Jing Chen’s words, Feng Jiuyuan clicked his tongue lightly and said nothing.
He knew, of course, that Huang Quan could handle it. But this was an opportunity to show her abilities. He didn’t want to miss it, but the high priest and Jing Chen made him miss it!
Nangong Qingyue, who had been silent for these days with less presence than Lin Xu, heard that Huang Quan was staying behind to deal with the remaining poisoned bees. He looked at Huang Quan and asked, “Can you really deal with those poisoned bees?”
Nangong Qingyue asked this because he was worried, and this worry was not just between friends, but also worried that Huang Quan would have trouble when she died
Huang Quan understood her meaning and smiled at Nangong Qingyue. “Don’t worry, I won’t drag you into this.”
Nangong Qingyue heard this and didn’t dare to say more. Lin Xu, on the other hand, couldn’t resist a bit of schadenfreude. “Huang Quan, you’re so powerful. I believe you can definitely deal with those poisoned bees.”
Huang Quan glanced at him. “More powerful than you, of course I can handle those poisoned bees.”
Lin Xu choked and didn’t say anything more.
The dense attacks from the Twin Formation above and below quickly dealt with the swarmed poisoned bees.
After resolving the bees trapped by the formation, the formation disappeared. Seizing this moment, the high priest used a barrier to protect Jing Chen and the others as they left, leaving Huang Quan alone behind.
Previously, the poisoned bees had been trying to break through the barrier, but the high priest’s continuous reinforcement kept repairing it. Moreover, the high priest had eliminated many of their comrades.
The enraged poisoned bees saw someone left behind without the barrier’s protection and immediately swarmed towards Huang Quan, completely enveloping her.
Lin Xu had walked a distance but looked back. He saw Huang Quan completely surrounded by the poisoned bees.
Standing there alone, her entire body covered with the swarming bees, it made his scalp tingle.
Powerful?
Ha, what good is being powerful now?
Without spiritual power, she wouldn’t be able to handle those poisoned bees!
Lin Xu sneered inwardly and then turned his gaze forward and continued walking.
On the other side…
Huang Quan stood in place, holding a vibrant red flower. The flower had no leaves, only fully bloomed petals that were shimmering with an eerie red light.
