Murong Yin's pupils shrank sharply, and his eyes quickly swept around the cave, but he could not see the attacking golden-backed blood beetles at all. They seemed to have merged with the air, leaving no trace.
The blood-red light thread was already close at hand, and Murong Yin had to activate the jade talisman, otherwise he would turn into a corpse and stay in the ethereal ancient tower forever.
He sighed, but unfortunately he still didn't see the true faces of those gatekeepers.
At this time, Situ Kong and Murong Zhen were both engaged in a fierce battle with the golden-backed blood beetle. As the third and second ranked beings on the spiritual list, their strength was unquestionable, and their perception of danger was also extremely keen.
So even if they can't see the golden-backed blood mantis, they can temporarily resist those weird attacks.
Situ Kong waved a two-meter-long sword in his hand, smashing all the blood-red light filaments flying towards him, but more and more light filaments flew from all directions, completely covering him, and he could only use all his strength to attack him.
The sword curtain must be airtight, otherwise as long as a flaw is revealed, one's life will be in danger immediately.
A layer of fiery red spiritual light covered his whole body, and the spiritual power was completely injected into the long knife. His keen perception did not miss the slightest abnormality. While resisting the attack of those bloody light threads, he searched for the location of the attacker.
.
He has already noticed some clues. He just needs to hold on for a while, and soon he will be able to completely lock the traces of the attackers. But the attacks of those bloody light threads are getting faster and faster, more and more intensive, and the power of the attacks is also getting more and more powerful.
It's horrifying that 80% of the spiritual energy in his Dantian was consumed in just half an hour.
"Asshole, what on earth is guarding this level?" Situ Kong gritted his teeth and cursed angrily. The surging spiritual power surged out instantly. He slashed out hundreds of flaming sword lights, each one as large as hundreds of meters.
.
Boom... the flying bloody light disappeared under the light of the sword, and the surrounding area was briefly cleared for a moment.
"Found it." Situ Kong's eyes narrowed, and he slashed fiercely in a certain direction. Hundreds of meters of flaming sword light burst out, and the scorching heat made the entire cave unbearably hot.
A golden-backed blood mantis appeared in front of the flaming sword. The blood-red sickle swung out against the flaming sword. Kaka, kaka, the sickle shattered. The flaming sword directly split it into two. It was terrifying.
The power of the flame instantly ignited its body, turning it into a pile of ashes.
With a brief glance, Situ Kong recognized the identity of the golden-backed blood mantis.
"Golden-backed Blood Mantis." His expression changed drastically, and the next moment an extremely terrifying sense of crisis exploded in his mind, as if some sharp sword had reached his throat, and the cold light of the blade stung his skin.
Situ Kong instinctively flew forward at a speed that was almost the fastest in his life. Hey, hey, the clothes on his back made a tearing sound, and then there was the sound of flesh and blood being penetrated. Blood spilled out, staining the clothes on his back red.
clothing.
He turned around quickly, only to see the blood-red eyes of a golden-backed blood beetle staring at him, extremely cold and emotionless.
Before he could counterattack, another sense of crisis came. This time he saw the way they attacked. Two blood-red sickles swung from different directions, so fast that only a blur of blood-red light flashed out.
He backed away more than ten meters and leaned against the stone wall with a bang. The clothes on his chest tore open, two wounds ran across his entire chest, and large swaths of flesh were directly hooked away by the sharp spikes on the bloody sickle.
Situ Kong's face turned pale in pain, cold sweat broke out and covered his forehead. The dizziness in his head was so strong that it seemed that he might be knocked down at any time.
"No, in my current state, it is very difficult to kill a golden-backed blood beetle, not to mention that I am not sure how many golden-backed blood beetles there are here." Situ Kong thought quickly,
The final answer was that it was impossible for him to break through the seventh floor.
"Are you just giving up? But what else can you do if you don't give up? If you delay it any longer, you will only continue to get hurt."
He shook his head, put down the long sword, activated the jade talisman without hesitation, and disappeared on the seventh floor.
...
On the other side, Murong Zhen formed a mysterious seal in his hand, and strange runes appeared and danced in the surrounding space. A golden light curtain emerged between the runes, resisting the blood-red light attacks from all directions.
Although he temporarily blocked the attack of the golden-backed blood beetle, Murong Zhen, like Situ Kong, was unable to locate the golden-backed blood beetle, so he could only passively take the beating without being able to fight back.
The spiritual energy in his dantian was being consumed rapidly, and the defensive light curtain he constructed was the strongest defense he could unleash at present. The attack of the golden-backed blood beetle was extraordinary, and it was so intensive that Murong really didn't dare to attack it.
There should be no carelessness in the slightest, and no carelessness in the slightest.
The light curtain resisted those blood-red light filaments, constantly vibrating, and ripples appeared. Slowly, the ripples became larger and larger, and the golden light curtain seemed to be unable to hold on.
On the top of the cave, the golden-backed Blood Mantis King appeared, its compound eyes staring at Murong Zhen directly below. It jumped down, turned around, and the dozens of blood-red lines engraved on its body all lit up, and the blood-red
The sickle struck down so fast that only a hazy light and shadow could be seen.
A fatal sense of crisis instantly appeared in Murong Zhen's mind, tingling his nerves like needles. Alas, the golden light curtain was broken through by the blood-red sickle, like a fragile window paper.
The blade of the sickle crossed Murong Zhen's forehead, and with a flash of white light, he disappeared. The golden-backed Blood Mantis King's attack fell into the air, he flapped his wings and flew up, disappearing into the air with a cry.
In the square outside the Kongling Tower, Situ Kong's figure emerged, and his miserable appearance made the surrounding disciples exclaim.
"Oh my god, Situ Kong couldn't even get past the seventh floor."
"Another light spot on the seventh floor has disappeared." A disciple shouted.
Situ Kong took out a healing elixir and stuffed it into his mouth, turned around and looked over. As soon as the disciple who spoke out finished speaking, Murong Zhen's figure appeared next to Situ Kong.
On his forehead, a wound extended directly from the hairline to the center of the eyebrow. It seemed that as long as he activated the jade talisman a little slower, the whole person would be split in half. Just thinking about the thrill of it, all the onlookers were shocked
The disciples shuddered in their hearts.
Murong Zhen is the one who is closest to death among all the disciples who have entered the seventh level.
"You also failed." Situ Kong looked at Murong Zhen and said with a bitter smile.
"Those golden-backed blood mantises are too terrifying." Murong Zhen said with lingering fear, "If I had hesitated at the last moment, I would have died in the Ethereal Tower."
"Yes, in the face of them, the power we thought was powerful has no place at all. It's like all our strength has been hit on a sponge."
"Yeah." Murong Zhen nodded and looked not far away. Yunli, Murong Yin and other dozen or so top twenty beings on the spiritual list have all given up on entering the tower. It can be seen that they, like him, have encountered difficulties that they cannot break through.
I just don’t know which level they are on. After Yunli and Murong disappeared, Yu Changli, Zhou Lingxu, Mu Lingyue and other lower-ranked disciples came out early.
The monsters can't be dealt with.
"A Yin, how are you?" Murong Zhen saw the huge wounds on Murong Yin's body, his face changed, and he appeared next to Murong Yin with a movement of his body, asking with concern in his eyes.
"Don't worry, Pavilion Master, I'm fine. Elder Mu has just connected my bones. The skin injuries will heal quickly." Murong Yin said with a smile. He himself practices wood-attribute spiritual arts and is best at healing wounds.
.Although he is all those who come out of the seventh level
Among them, he was the most seriously injured, but he was the one who healed the fastest. Now the wounds on his body have basically healed. Only the huge wound on his shoulder is still healing slowly. After all, most of the flesh and blood has been healed by the golden back.
The spikes on the Blood Mantis' sickle were hooked away.
"Oh my God, two people broke into the eighth floor at the same time." The disciple who had been paying attention to the movement of the red light spots on the light screen exclaimed in disbelief.
Elder Lian Mu was also completely shocked. His eyes looked at the two red light spots on the eighth floor, and he didn't know whether he was surprised or horrified.
Who else besides Han Qianyou has the strength to break into the eighth floor? Such doubts arose in Elder Mu's heart.
"Is it that girl Linglong? If he uses the power Xiaofeng and Xiaoqing gave her, there will be no problem breaking into the eighth floor. Then who is the other person?"
"Han Yi? It's impossible. Even though his strength is not weak, his methods are quite complex and changeable, but the golden-backed blood beetle on the seventh level is very good at hiding, and its attack power and attack speed are very terrifying. Even Murong Zhen and Situ
Even a veteran disciple like Kong can't resist it, and it's impossible for Han Yi to break through to the seventh level."
Elder Mu glanced at the bottom of the square. Situ Feng and Shangguan Le, two disciples he had high hopes for, had given up before the seventh floor. The remaining disciples who had not yet come out were basically trapped on the fifth and fourth floors.
On the sixth and seventh floors, only one person is still holding on.
"The remaining disciples who have not yet come out, the only ones with good strength are Ji Xuanyou and Tian'er, and that Zhuge Yun." Elder Mu frowned, comparing the strength of several people in his mind, "Zhuge Yun's strength
She should be stronger than Han Yi, Ji Xuanyou and Tian'er, so she has the greatest chance of breaking into the eighth floor."
"Moreover, the light attribute is very rare and is almost the only attribute that has no weaknesses." Elder Mu guessed and judged.
There is no doubt that Qiu Linglong indeed inspired the cold power that Qiu Fengying left in her body at the last moment, bursting out with the strength of the Spirit King stage, killing the remaining golden-backed blood mantises, and entered
On the eighth floor.
As for Han Yi, he relies on the evil spirit of Kui Long Jue and the strange method of the soul-suppressing prison. Maybe even the monks in the Spirit King stage will be a little afraid of it. The evil spirits have swallowed up the evil spirits and spiritual bodies of so many living beings.
The barrier of the prison is already very powerful, and the restrictions on mental perception and five senses and six consciousnesses are almost to the point of abnormality. The mental attacks released by the evil spirits are also extremely terrifying. Those mixed and impure mental powers are enough to make anyone under the spirit king stage
The monk collapsed.
Therefore, even level four monsters such as the Golden-backed Blood Mantis cannot withstand the spiritual attacks of evil spirits.
