“In the endless wilderness, Tang Zhen rapidly advanced in the direction of the Holy Dragon City. During this period, there were some wandering low-level monsters that tried to attack him, but they were all killed by him with a swing of his sword. ”
“Currently, Tang Zhen’s cultivation had already advanced to rank 4. Killing some low-level monsters could be said to be as easy as blowing off dust. However, killing such monsters would not help him in increasing his cultivation. Therefore, unless those monsters were seeking death, Tang Zhen would not bother with them at all. ”
“Suddenly, the sound of weapons clashing came from the front. Tang Zhen immediately stopped and took out his binoculars to observe in the direction of the sound. After a while, Tang Zhen put down the binoculars. An inexplicable smile appeared on the corner of his mouth and he immediately headed straight to the scene of the battle. ”
“On the gravel plain, two groups of people were engaged in a fierce battle. From time to time, someone would be injured by a sword, blood splattering everywhere, and screams of pain could be heard. ”
Tang Zhen was very familiar with one of the groups. It was the cultivator battle team from Black Rock City. There were more than 30 people in total. They wore the same uniform and held swords in their hands. They formed a battle formation and appeared to be in an orderly manner when they faced the enemy.
The other group of people looked a little frightened and strange.
“There were about 50 to 60 of them, far more than the number of cultivators in Blackstone city. They were all wearing heavy black leather armor made of crocodile skin. Most of their weapons were long Knives and broadswords, while some of the cultivators in black armor used red bone Spears that were three meters long. ”
“Judging from the uniform equipment and weapons of these people, it was obvious that they belonged to an organized force. However, for some unknown reason, they had a conflict with the cultivators of Black Rock City, which resulted in them pointing their swords at each other. ”
“What made Tang Zhen interested was that the faces of these black-armored cultivators were already extremely deformed from their noses up. They looked like malevolent ghosts. However, after taking a closer look, Tang Zhen discovered that these cultivators ‘faces were actually covered with a kind of strange insect. They wrapped around the upper half of their faces and more than a dozen tentacles pierced deeply into the cultivators’ acupuncture points such as sun, jade pillow, and Baihui. There were also two half-foot long tentacles in front of their foreheads that were shaking from time to time. ”
“Every time these cultivators were agitated, the tentacles of the face-applying bugs would shake violently. And every time these cultivators were in danger or at the brink of death, the face-applying bugs would turn red again. Then, the cultivator’s strength would immediately surge, and his whole person would go crazy. He would not feel a knife or sword stabbing his body, which was quite terrifying. ”
“Tang Zhen saw a cultivator whose face-covering bug had turned red. He dragged his intestines and internal organs that were all over the ground and desperately bit the lower leg of a Black Rock City cultivator. Even though his head was cut off by a sword, he continued to bite. Only when the red color of the face-covering bug faded did the cultivator die. ”
“The [ monster detector ] locked onto the strange face-dressing bug, but it did not get any information. This meant that the face-dressing bug was not a monster, but just a strange bug. ”
“In the face of this group of crazy cultivators with face-covering bugs, the cultivator battle team from Black Rock City was strong and had good cooperation. However, five people were still killed. As for the cultivators with face-covering bugs, more than ten of them were dead. ”
“After shifting his gaze away from the face-covering insect cultivator, Tang Zhen looked at the Black Rock City’s cultivator battle team. To be more precise, he looked at a youth in the cultivator battle team. This was because this person was the youth Xiao Rui who had a secret deal with Tang Zhen. ”
It was because of the information provided by the young man that Tang Zhen was able to clean up the treasure room in Black Rock City. He did not expect to meet him here today.
“However, Xiao Rui had already been promoted to a rank 3 cultivator. Among the cultivators from Blackstone city, he was one of the few with a higher cultivation. ”
“The young man, little Rui, had very sharp senses. When Tang Zhen was observing him, he also felt Tang Zhen’s gaze. He turned his head to look at Tang Zhen and then pretended not to know Tang Zhen. He continued to swing his sword and fight with the face-covering insect cultivators. ”
“In reality, both parties had already discovered Tang Zhen’s existence ever since he appeared near the battlefield. However, no one dared to act rashly. After all, Tang Zhen’s current strength had already reached rank 4. The aura of his cultivation that he revealed was very obvious. The two parties that were currently fighting were unable to figure out his intention for coming. Since he was merely watching from the side and did not attack, no one would invite a rebuff and provoke him. ”
“The leader of the face-covering insects and the leader of the Black Rock City cultivators were both at Level 4. At this moment, the two of them were locked in a fierce battle. Due to the strange ability of the face-covering insects, the combat power of the leader of the black-armored cultivators was obviously higher. ”
“The leader of the cultivators from Black Rock City was at a disadvantage and was worried about how to escape from this situation. When he saw Tang Zhen, he was delighted and immediately shouted,””My friend, we are cultivators from Black Rock City. Please help us kill these insect bandits. Black Rock City will definitely reward you handsomely!”” ”
“After the leader of the cultivators from Black Rock City shouted out his words, the insect cultivators that he called the insect bandits immediately looked at Tang Zhen with vigilance. Some cultivators even faintly moved closer to him in case he suddenly attacked. ”
“Tang Zhen coldly laughed when he saw this. He was extremely disdainful of the actions of the leader of Black Rock City. If he thought that he would be dragged into this with just a sentence, he was really too naive. ”
“Black Rock City was considered his enemy. How could he help them? however, that young man called Xiao Rui was still useful to him. He could not let him die Here. ”
“However, the term ‘insect bandits’ mentioned by the leader of the cultivators in Black Rock City made Tang Zhen recall the various forces in the wilderness that Qian Long had once introduced to him. One of them was the introduction of this insect Bandit. ”
“It was said that before the insect bandits became famous, they were a group of ordinary Wanderers and wild cultivators. When they explored a strange wild building, they found some strange insects. Some of these insects were like scorpions and could attach themselves to the arm. They could control it with their thoughts and shoot out a kind of hard poisonous sting. Some insects could change their limbs, turning human arms into bone knives or growing countless tentacles. ”
“In addition, there were also many insects with strange functions. The insect thieves kept it a secret, and only their own people knew about it. Anyone who had seen it had already turned into bones. ”
“The bug thieves had the most bugs, and they were these face-applying bugs that could cover the face and greatly increase the user’s strength. However, the side effects of using these face-applying bugs were very great. In less than ten years, the user would enter a state of exhaustion. However, the bug thieves did not care. Every member would wear a face-applying bug, which made the face-applying bug the main symbol of the bug thieves. ”
“Relying on these strange insects, the insect thieves quickly rose up in the nearby area and became one of the major forces that the Wanderers were extremely afraid of, so they wouldn’t easily provoke them. ”
“However, he did not know what was wrong with the insect bandits this time. They actually dared to provoke the Overlord of this region, Black Rock City. Were they not afraid of Black Rock City’s revenge? ”
“After Tang Zhen thought of this, he took a deep look at the leader of the insect bandits. Perhaps, this group of people who were neither human nor ghost had already become the pawns of some faction. ”
“Thinking about it, the sudden outbreak of the undead race this time had caused Black Rock City to be in a terrible state, and their own strength had also suffered a great loss. At this time, some organizations that coveted Black Rock City’s territory would take the opportunity to attack and hit them when they were down. It was not impossible. ”
“If he were to rashly intervene, it would bring trouble to himself no matter which side he helped. When Tang Zhen thought of this, he decided to sit on the fence and wait for the outcome of the battle to be decided before making any other plans. ”
“The two sides of the battle saw that Tang Zhen did not move for a long time and thought that he did not want to get involved in this muddy water. After all, the two sides of the battle were two famous forces in the vicinity. No matter how high Tang Zhen’s cultivation was, he was just a Lone Ranger. No matter who he offended, it would be enough for him to suffer. ”
“After thinking up to this point, the two groups no longer bothered with Tang Zhen and continued to bury their heads in the battle. ”
“Unfortunately, Tang Zhen did not know what these people were thinking. Otherwise, he would definitely smile in disdain. If he were to take action, with his current level 4 cultivation and the weapons in his storage space, it was likely that more than half of the cultivators present would die in his hands. The remaining half would be difficult to please. ”
“Just as Tang Zhen was watching the battle with his arms crossed, a long howl could be faintly heard from far away. The leader of the cultivators from Black Rock City revealed a look of joy, but the face of the leader of the insect bandits changed! ”
