Chapter 9: 9

Hearing this, everyone was stunned and they immediately looked at Wang Xu.

“Brother Wang!” Song Zhen glared at Xu Yuan. “If Brother Wang has to leave, then I’ll leave as well. I definitely won’t stay with such a despicable person!”

“Me too!” Tang Yan stepped up. “I’ll follow wherever Wang Xu goes!”

The two of them expressed their stance without the slightest hesitation, especially Tang Yan, making Xu Yuan turn sullen instantly.

“Song Zhen, Tang Yan.” Wang Xu said, “You guys go in, I’ll leave.”

When Tang Yan and Song Zhen heard this, they wanted to speak but were stopped by Wang Xu. “Don’t say anything else. The Soft Millipede is almost catching up to us. You guys will only drag me down if you stay.”

The two of them were at a loss for words. Indeed, Xu Yuan had made up his mind not to let Wang Xu in. Wang Xu must face the Soft Millipede alone. They were all a group of level-three students, and they couldn’t help when facing a level-four Elite Insect at all!

“Brother Zhang, I hope you can take care of them for me. Thank you.” Wang Xu said to Zhang Xinglin before he left. Zhang Xinglin looked at him and nodded seriously.

Wang Xu’s move obviously showed that he didn’t trust Xu Yuan. Even if Song Zhen and Tang Yan could enter the energy shield, they might not be able to please Xu Yuan. Only Zhang Xinglin could step up and protect them at this time.

After saying that, Wang Xu sprinted away under everyone’s gaze.

As soon as Wang Xu left, the Soft Millipede came. Its enormous body created a huge gully on the ground. When it saw Tang Yan, Zhang Xinglin, and the others, it opened its bloody mouth and pounced forward right away.

Xu Yuan was a man of his word. Before the Soft Millipede pounced at them, he had already opened the energy shield and let them in.

“Bang!” The Soft Millipede’s huge body hit the purple light screen. Countless ripples appeared, but it was still blocked outside and couldn’t enter.

Moreover, the radiation zone made the Soft Millipede very uncomfortable. It took a few steps back and looked at the people in the energy shield with an upset look. It then let out a strange scream and turned around to chase after Wang Xu.

…

Wang Xu ran forward desperately. Before the Soft Millipede noticed him, he had already run a few kilometers away. His speed was comparable to that of a car.

However, before he could rejoice, a loud rumbling sound came from afar, causing his heart to tremble and his face to turn pale.

In this situation where he was alone and helpless, his vision would be blocked when the sky turned dark and his speed of escape would be greatly reduced. In the end, when the Soft Millipede caught up to him, Wang Xu would only become its dinner!

The Soft Millipede was moving much faster than before. It was blocked by the energy shield and affected by the radiation, so it was already a little angry. It had regarded the human fleeing in front of it as its delicacy today. It would eat him no matter what!

As Wang Xu ran for his life, he looked around in an attempt to find a place to hide. But to his disappointment, he was surrounded by the forest. Even if there were a couple abandoned warehouses and buildings, they wouldn’t be able to stop the Soft Millipede and could be easily leveled.

“There!” Suddenly, Wang Xu’s eyes glittered and his face was filled with ecstasy.

After going over a mountain, Wang Xu found a cave with a narrow entrance!

The entrance was the size of a person and was just big enough for a person to squeeze in. Wang Xu didn’t care about anything else. He went straight for the cave!

The Soft Millipede was about to catch up to Wang Xu. Its body was huge and its speed wasn’t slow. If not for the buildings and trees blocking its way, Wang Xu would have been caught by the Soft Millipede.

“Quick! Quick!” Cold sweat covered Wang Xu’s forehead. Even though his legs were sore, he didn’t dare to stop!

One step slower and he would die!

Suddenly, the Soft Millipede let out a strange scream and its entire body flew up, dashing towards Wang Xu!

A giant shadow covered Wang Xu’s body. Wang Xu didn’t dare to look back. He stared firmly at the narrow cave entrance. Just as he was getting close, he instantly jumped!

The entrance was so narrow that only half of his body could pass through. Yet, Wang Xu passed through it without any obstruction!

“Boom!” The Soft Millipede’s huge body smashed into the cave wall. The entire cave shook, but it didn’t collapse. Although the Soft Millipede’s power was terrifying, it wasn’t enough to destroy the cave.

He was safe!

In the dark cave, a small beam of light shone through the hole and landed on the ground. Wang Xu’s entire body went limp and he only felt glad in his heart that he had escaped death.

Looking out of the cave, the Soft Millipede was wandering around at the entrance, trying to hit the cave wall again. However, after several tries, the cave remained intact, which made the Soft Millipede lose its patience. It gave up and left.

“Phew…” Seeing this scene, Wang Xu heaved a long sigh. He had finally escaped the calamity.

“Growl…” Suddenly, a muffled sound came from behind Wang Xu.

Wang Xu was shocked and he immediately turned around. With the light from the entrance of the cave, he saw a level-three Iron Wire Beetle.

Wang Xu thought about it and immediately understood.

No wonder there was a cave with such a narrow entrance and walls as dense as steel. It turned out there was an Iron Wire Beetle here.

The Iron Wire Beetle was about the size of a football and looked like a beetle. Its body was covered with black lines like iron wires. The lifestyle of Iron Wire Beetles was rather peculiar. They liked to stay in dark places, such as underground or caves, places that were completely sealed. The strange thing was that they would want to be bathed in sunlight occasionally after a period of time. Therefore, the Iron Wire Beetles would open a hole in their homes to let the light in.

This cave was apparently the nest of this Iron Wire Beetle.

Although the Iron Wire Beetle indirectly saved Wang Xu’s life, he had no choice but to take out the long sword from his Space Ring.

Wang Xu could clearly see the viciousness in the Iron Wire Beetle’s eyes. The insects and humans were like natural enemies, destined to never get along!

The Iron Wire Beetle didn’t hesitate. A breath after it saw Wang Xu, it had already shown its weapon, its six iron wire legs with spikes as sharp as steel. It was by using these six iron wire legs that it was able to dig the cave freely.

Wang Xu focused his gaze as he stabbed the Iron Wire Beetle with the long sword in his hand. He executed the Blood Dripping Strike perfectly and the long sword pierced the Iron Wire Beetle directly.

“Clang!” It was as if the sound of metal colliding came. The strength of the Iron Wire Beetle wasn’t as strong as Wang Xu. It was knocked backward in the air, but it didn’t have any intention of retreating. It opened its carapace again and flew forward.

The Blood Dripping Strike didn’t show the effect that it should have, but Wang Xu wasn’t anxious. He drew a sharp curve with his long sword as he faced the Iron Wire Beetle head-on.

The two of them were both at level three, and the Iron Wire Beetle was an insect beast at the mid-upper level three. Ordinary level-three students would have long been killed by the Iron Wire Beetle. They were no match for it at all.

“Clang! Clang! Clang…”

After several clashes, Wang Xu discovered the ways and angles of the Iron Wire Beetle’s attacks. Taking advantage of the time when the Iron Wire Beetle was repelled again, Wang Xu stepped forward and stabbed one of the Iron Wire Beetle’s legs.

The iron wire legs were the most powerful and toughest weapon of the Iron Wire Beetles. Ordinary people wouldn’t choose to fight them head on, but look for weaknesses. However, Wang Xu found that the other five legs of this Iron Wire Beetle were very strong as well. Only this one leg was a little weak, even kind of crippled already, so he didn’t hesitate to make a move.

“Growl…” Wang Xu attacked and completely cut off one of the Iron Wire Beetle’s legs. The Iron Wire Beetle let out a strange roar and opened its carapace without hesitation, trying to escape.

Even its six legs couldn’t deal with Wang Xu, let alone five. The Iron Wire Beetle was terrified and instinctively ran for its life.

However, how would Wang Xu let such a rare opportunity slip away in front of him? Without saying a word, he rushed forward and used the “Nine Lightning Sword Techniques.” The Wind Breaking Strike and Blood Dripping Strike hit the Iron Wire Beetle fiercely.

At the beginning, the Iron Wire Beetle was still able to withstand a couple attacks, but as time passed, it became more and more overwhelmed and its body was covered in wounds.

As if seeing that it was no longer a match for the human in front of it, the Iron Wire Beetle that would be killed sooner or later let out an angry hiss. Then, its entire body curled into a ball as it charged towards Wang Xu!

Wang Xu didn’t expect the Iron Wire Beetle to have such a trump card. He immediately held his long blade in front of him to resist the strike of the Iron Wire Beetle.

The violent crash caused Wang Xu’s organs to shake and he nearly spurt out a mouthful of blood. Looking at the Iron Wire Beetle, it wasn’t any better. Cracks appeared on its carapace and Wang Xu seized the opportunity to take a slash with his long sword regardless of his injuries!

“Poof!” Without a doubt, Wang Xu’s attack split the defenseless Iron Wire Beetle into two and blood splattered everywhere.

After the Iron Wire Beetle died, Wang Xu couldn’t hold it anymore and he spurted a mouthful of blood.

Wiping the blood from his lips, Wang Xu reflected in his mind that he couldn’t be so careless in the future. If the Iron Wire Beetle had fought with all its might at the start, two strikes would have ruptured his internal organs!

After the death of the Iron Wire Beetle, Wang Xu took out a few healing medicines from his Space Ring and ate them, sitting cross-legged on the ground to rest.

“Hm? My stomach is so hot. What’s going on?” Feeling the heat coming from his stomach, Wang Xu frowned, but before he could understand it, a red flame emerged from his skin and rushed towards the Iron Wire Beetle’s corpse!

Wang Xu was stunned. When did this flame enter his body? And it could even move on its own? What was going on?!

Looking at the flame again, it was wrapping the two halves of the Iron Wire Beetle’s corpse, forming a flame that was the shape of the Iron Wire Beetle. It gradually shrank and the Iron Wire Beetle seemed to be devoured by this mysterious flame, disappearing completely without a trace.

Wang Xu stared blankly at the mysterious flame floating in the air. After the flame completely destroyed the Iron Wire Beetle’s corpse, it quickly burrowed back into his stomach. Wang Xu couldn’t stop it even if he wanted to.

“What… what happened?” Wang Xu couldn’t react at all.

Suddenly, Wang Xu felt a wave of heat again in his abdomen. However, the heat this time was even stronger than before. Not only that, the heat was like a heatwave that started to rise from his abdomen and flowed towards his limbs and head!

Wang Xu revealed a pained expression. He felt as if his meridians were being roasted by fire and were about to start burning. His entire body fell into unbearable burning pain!

“Hm…” Blue veins popped out on Wang Xu’s forehead as cold sweat oozed out constantly. At the same time, black stains appeared on every pore on his skin, giving off an unpleasant smell.

The pain lasted for at least half an hour. In that half an hour, Wang Xu felt as though he had gone from hell to heaven, and also from heaven to hell. Every time his meridians burned for a period of time, there would be an indescribable warmth that made his meridians fresh. At that moment, Wang Xu felt extremely comfortable, but before long, the burning pain continued.

This repeated several times, but Wang Xu still gritted his teeth and endured it. He wasn’t thinking about why he had to endure such pain, but about his family in the safe zone. If he died in the wild like this, what would happen to his family?

Because of this belief, no matter how much pain Wang Xu felt, he had to endure it and didn’t allow himself to scream.

Suddenly, Wang Xu’s eyes focused. He felt his aura skyrocketing and his strength constantly increasing. The invisible shackles in his body were broken abruptly and he instantly revealed an ecstatic expression!

He had broken through!

This was a breakthrough!

Wang Xu had experienced advancements from level one to level two, and level two to level three. The situation was almost the same. The moment he broke through, his aura and strength would undergo tremendous changes. And now, he was experiencing such a transformation!
