Chapter 136: Insect-type Evil God
Not just the Elf Club, but various other factions also received the news at the first moment.
Even many families have already begun joining forces to subdue this Lord-level large monster.
After all, a monster of this level still has very high value.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Wu Xian had already easily dealt with several elite monsters that had chased after him, and in another fusion zone, he found another mine vein.
After Brother Pillar dug for a while, it was confirmed to be the most common insect carbon mine vein in the Insectoid Dimension.
The Laurel Tree definitely wouldn’t use it, and insect carbon mine was useless to him either.
However, some rare ore scattered within the mine vein had some value.
He then controlled Brother Pillar to dig out a labyrinthine mine tunnel all the way, scraping clean all the rare ore in the mine vein.
“Tsk, Brother Pillar’s efficiency is still too low after all.”
Strictly speaking, Brother Pillar’s “miner” ability was already very excellent.
But it was only suitable for various mine bosses.
For a picky “super mine rat” like him, it was clearly not enough.
He needed to get a more powerful and professional player later.
After scraping up the rare ore from the mine vein, it was already late, so he returned to the plant element fusion zone, and while continuing to search for plant-based rare materials, he discovered that a fierce large-scale battle was taking place near the spirit crystal ore vein from before.
It was probably the various factions of Yaoyang City making their move.
After all, a fusion-type Lord-level large monster still had very high value.
Wu Xian was too lazy to join in the fun, silently leading Winged Fire Star Lord and Zhenshui Xingjun as he shuttled through various places in the plant fusion zone.
Now, both Star Lords had been cultivated by him to four-star, one water and one fire, with very fierce combat power.
“What the hell is this?”
A patch of grass below suddenly turned into a sky-covering horde of strange insectoid monsters, surrounding him completely.
“Cordyceps, huh?”
The insectoid monsters flying all over in front of him were not large, with the lower half being small flying insects that could fly, and the upper half resembling some strange weeds; they were just ordinary small monsters of level seven or eight, but their vast numbers and ability to fly made up for it.
Swarming and biting over in overwhelming numbers was still very terrifying.
From the mountain-like pile of monster remains below, it seemed quite a few monsters had probably perished at the hands of this swarm of “little flying insects.”
Wu Xian was surrounded by flowing light of Aura of Wealth and Treasure Light, completely unflustered.
Winged Fire Star Lord spread a pair of fire wings, burning with sky-filling poisonous fire, while Zhenshui Xingjun turned into countless earthworm-like streams of water, shuttling through the insect swarm.
Under the fusion of water and fire, the sky-covering little flying insects scattered to the ground.
“Not bad~ they actually contain quite a bit of spiritual substance suitable for medicine.”
After picking up a flying insect corpse to inspect it, he silently stored the corpses of the flying insects all over the ground into the Qiankun Bag.
Unfortunately, subsequent searching yielded no trace of plant-based rare materials.
“Already taken by someone else first?”
Keep in mind, such a vast Dimensional Fusion Zone must have plenty of plant-based rare materials.
And not only did he have the two scouting experts Day and Night Patrol Gods, but also the super wealth-sensing 【Aura of Wealth】.
If even this couldn’t find any, it could only mean someone had beaten him to it.
The battle on the Lord-level large monster’s side was still ongoing, and Wu Xian was too lazy to pay attention to it.
By the time he withdrew and returned to North Street District, it was already early morning, with the sky just starting to lighten.
The gains from this night were quite abundant, especially the 【Laurel Tree】’s improvement.
Trying to cultivate under the Laurel Tree’s blessing, that wondrous sensation toward Heaven and Earth Laws made Wu Xian deeply immersed in it.
Ding ling ling!
The phone ringtone woke Wu Xian from cultivation.
Seeing it was Old Brother Mo calling, Wu Xian knew that the several types of rare ore he wanted had arrived.
Not long after, Old Brother Mo appeared cheerfully in the small villa, familiarly picking up the tea and downing it in one go, “Burp——this trip really wore me out, running a full three cities, but fortunately I didn’t fail the mission.”
With that, he took out several pieces of precious rare ore.
“Thanks for the hard work, brother.”
Wu Xian contentedly stored away the several precious ores and paid Old Brother Mo the due remuneration.
“No need to be polite with me,” Old Brother Mo waved his hand with a smile; now holding a full set of Yin Commanders, he was considered a top big shot in the circle, “But when I was coming back, I heard something happened in the Insectoid Dimension; various families and forces suffered heavy losses, and even the Insectoid Dimensional Gate was temporarily sealed.”
Wu Xian was stunned in surprise.
Could it be because of that Lord-level large monster? That shouldn’t be?
“What reason?”
“No idea~” Old Brother Mo looked bewildered with a hint of worry, “Just hope it’s not another wave of Dimensional Mirage; the last Dimensional Mirage killed enough people already.”
After seeing off Old Brother Mo, Wu Xian immediately contacted Master Sister Xue Lingling.
Upon learning the situation, Wu Xian was instantly shocked.
“What? An Evil Scroll Painter was discovered in that large Dimensional Fusion Zone!”
According to Xue Lingling’s description, when the various factions were encircling and suppressing that Lord-level large monster, they had vaguely felt something off.
It wasn’t until they were about to take down that Lord-level large monster that a tremendously powerful insect-type evil scroll painting suddenly appeared, snatching away the Lord-level large monster while severely injuring and killing many Spirit Tamers on site.
“That’s right, and it’s very likely one who’s been on the run for years, a famous name on the bounty list!”
“An existence on the bounty list?” Wu Xian was shocked, “What background?”
“Five years ago, an Evil Scroll Painter appeared in Wanrong City, causing a bloodbath there; after being encircled by the Association and various dojos, he escaped and vanished, but who would’ve thought he’d been hiding around our Yaoyang City all along.” Xue Lingling’s voice carried a trace of solemnity and wariness.
“Very strong?”
“To escape under joint efforts of various sides, naturally not simple,” Xue Lingling said gravely: “And back then he had only just emerged; now five years later, his strength would only be even more terrifying than before.”
Wu Xian clicked his tongue, unavoidably feeling some lingering fear.
He had explored that Dimensional Fusion Zone for so long yet completely failed to detect the other’s presence, and wasn’t targeted by them either.
Could only say the God of Wealth was watching over him; he did have some “good luck” on him.
“Speaking of which, your 【Guardian Chicken King】 really made a big contribution this time,” Xue Lingling continued: “If not for the military’s Chicken King Cavalry Battalion arriving in time afterward, with a group of Chicken Kings repelling that evil worm scroll painting, the various factions’ losses would have been even greater.”
“Is that so?”
Wu Xian expressed surprise verbally, but wasn’t surprised inwardly.
Xue Lingling had just said this wanted criminal played with insect-type Evil Gods, so he would naturally have some trepidation toward painted spirits like “Chicken Gods,” especially a group of 【Guardian Chicken Kings】.
But this did remind him that he needed to quickly bring out the 【Sun Star Lord】.
The Sun Rooster’s suppressive power against insects was absolutely not something 【Guardian Chicken King】 could compare to.
Having a Sun Rooster in hand would make him feel much more secure.
Since he was doing it, he naturally wanted to make a Silver Scroll one as much as possible.
Previously, the Zhenshui Water Worm could be made into a Silver Scroll because king-level Insectoid Race bones happened to be suitable.
Now, finding high-end materials suitable for the Sun Rooster really wasn’t easy.
After some thought, Wu Xian went to the Association.
Currently, only the Association side had hope of helping him find suitable materials in a short time.
But at this moment, the Association’s interior was evidently immersed in a heavy atmosphere of facing a great enemy due to that Evil Scroll Painter’s appearance.
President Cui Wenxuan had no choice but to personally step forward to take charge, with all major departments in the Association busy and tense.
“Little Grand-Disciple? You came at the perfect time,” seeing Wu Xian, Cui Wenxuan immediately came over to greet him, “Your 【Guardian Chicken King】 has some deterrence against that evil worm; the Association side is preparing to procure a batch.”
