Chapter 51
The King of Corpse Insects

“I’ve been waiting for you!”

Bai Tian Yu, who had already sensed something was wrong, collided with the monster. The next moment, he was sent flying.

Damn, it’s too hard!

He had expected the monster to be powerful, but he hadn’t expected it to be this strong.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Bai Tian Yu finally got a clear look at the monster’s appearance, just like the ones he had seen in movies.

A human body with snake eyes, covered in black scales from head to toe, and a snake tail.

But it seemed more humanoid. Could it be related to the Queen Mother of the West?

The Queen Mother of the West advocated the coexistence of humans and snakes. This monster is basically in a state of human-snake coexistence.

However, this thing doesn’t have any humanity at all. It’s probably a failed product of the Queen of Jingjue’s research, right?

But where’s the Corpse-Eating King she researched?

That’s the key, right?

Did the Queen of Jingjue die before she could eat it?

Forget it, I’m overthinking!

Let’s just focus on how to kill this thing. But why is it targeting me?

Is it like the prehistoric Bawang Rong?

“Hiss, hiss, hiss!”

Wrapped in azure light, Bai Tian Yu charged at the monster and fought it.

Seeing the human and the monster fighting fiercely, Lao Hu sat on the ground, bored.

“Miss Yang, come sit down. We can’t do anything in this fight. Take a break.”

Lao Hu’s seasoned tone made Xue Li Yang speechless.

Dude, your good brother is fighting for his life, and you’re here drinking water. Should I get you a deck of cards?

I’m really baffled.

However, watching the monster gradually fall into a disadvantage, Xue Li Yang relaxed and curiously asked,

“Aren’t you worried?”

“What am I worried about? This guy’s fighting strength isn’t human. I’m starting to think Lao Bai is a humanoid beast!”

“The first time we saw the Red Hound, Lao Bai’s Five Thunderbolts Spell wasn’t this powerful yet. He used the Golden Light Spell to withstand the big zombie’s attacks and fought head-on with it.”

“At that time, Fatso and I went to help, but we were thrown back in one face-off. We couldn’t pose any threat at all!”

Sighing, Lao Hu truly felt that his past self was too naive.

He actually thought that all the ghosts and monsters were paper tigers in front of guns. Now it seems like, unless it’s high-power heavy weaponry.

It’s impossible to cause damage to this kind of monster. Only the Golden Light Spell can restrain it. Otherwise, Bai Tian Yu wouldn’t be able to hold on either.

“Ugh!”

Spitting out a mouthful of blood, Bai Tian Yu felt like his internal organs were about to shift. This thing’s power is too great.

Even though the Golden Light Spell withstood the attack, the shockwave made Bai Tian Yu feel overwhelmed.

The Five Thunderbolts Spell has definitely strengthened Bai Tian Yu’s body, but it’s still a bit weak.

If he activated the Yang Five Thunderbolts, he would have already blasted this thing into oblivion. Unfortunately, the last time he gained experience, it was directly added to his total Qi.

No, I need to find this thing’s weakness!

Wait, why is this thing afraid of my blood?

Seeing the monster avoiding his blood even as it endured his Five Thunderbolts Spell attack, he felt strange.

No way?

Could it be that the reason this thing attacked him is because he has a special bloodline?

Should I try it?

Patting himself down, Bai Tian Yu found he didn’t have any decent cold weapons, only a dagger.

But what can this thing do?

Are you kidding me!

“Lao Bai, should we throw a flashbang?”

Seeing Bai Tian Yu spitting blood, Xue Li Yang stood up nervously.

Flashbang?

Right, a flashbang!

This monster is probably the human-snake coexistence of Jing Jian A Han, so it should inherit Jing Jian A Han’s weaknesses.

Thinking this, Bai Tian Yu directly met the monster’s attack.

Then, a dazzling golden light flared, blinding the monster’s snake eyes.

“Pfft!”

“Hiss, hiss, hiss!”

When Bai Tian Yu plunged the long sword condensed by the Five Thunderbolts Spell into the monster’s heart, it went into a frenzy. It swung its hand wildly, accidentally knocking Bai Tian Yu flying.

“Roar!”

With a mournful roar, the monster collapsed limply to the ground.

“Lao Bai!!!”

Seeing Bai Tian Yu flying out, Xue Li Yang nervously ran over and helped him up.

Lao Hu was also a bit nervous. After all, that last hit looked painful.

“How are you?”

“I’m fine, just need to rest for a bit!”

Shaking his head, Bai Tian Yu sat up from Xue Li Yang’s arms and began to circulate the Golden Light Spell.

This time, the experience went to the Golden Light Spell. That means Bai Tian Yu’s Golden Light Spell has reached the point where it can leave his body.

But this time, Bai Tian Yu realized his weakness: fists are simply not as good as weapons.

I’ll have to ask Da Jin Ya to get some good weapons when we get back. A sword would be best. As for a knife?

Forget it, Bai Tian Yu still prefers swords.

“Lao Hu, don’t touch it!”

When Bai Tian Yu opened his eyes, he saw Lao Hu about to touch the monster’s corpse and quickly shouted.

“What?”

Lao Hu didn’t realize the danger and looked at Bai Tian Yu curiously.

Suddenly, a bug flew out of the monster’s body towards Lao Hu.

Seeing this, Bai Tian Yu pulled the pistol out from Xue Li Yang’s thigh and didn’t hesitate to pull the trigger.

With the gunshot, the bug fell from mid-air, dead as a doornail.

No wonder I couldn’t find the Corpse-Eating King. It was in its heart!

“What is that?”

Xue Li Yang put away the gun and asked curiously.

“Corpse-Eating King!”

Not hiding it, Bai Tian Yu answered truthfully. He had a feeling that he’d already entered the game.

That means they’re bound to encounter the Corpse-Eating King sooner or later. This was just one.

“Corpse-Eating King, isn’t that the Queen Mother of the West’s thing?”

As the descendant of the Moving Mountains Daoists, Xue Li Yang had also seen descriptions of the Corpse-Eating King in Partridge Whistle’s notes. But wasn’t that something made by the Queen Mother of the West in legend?

How could it appear in the Jingjue Ancient City?

“I don’t know, but be careful. It’s going to be even more dangerous in the future.”

“Can you two explain to me what a Corpse-Eating King is?”

“I’m still clueless!”

Lao Hu used his dagger to poke the Corpse-Eating King’s corpse and asked curiously.

“The Corpse-Eating King is highly poisonous. Touch it and you’ll die.”
