The Demonic Cultivator In Zombie World novel Chapter 88

Liu Zhenxiong glanced at the incoming swarm and declared in a deep voice, "Black-backed gold beetles, first-level Gu. They fear the flames."

Li Xuanming nodded, channeling more Spiritual Qi into the Corpse Refining Blood Fire.

With a booming sound, the flame intensified, enveloping the cluster of Black-backed Gold Beetles in front of them. The air filled with a crackling sound as the insects flew into the flames and were instantly consumed, their bodily energy feeding and amplifying the Corpse Refining Blood Fire.

This was the terrifying aspect of the Corpse Refining Blood Fire. As long as there was flesh, it needed no external Spiritual Qi to burn endlessly.

For the other approaching Black-backed Gold Beetles, Liu Zhenxiong carefully retrieved a box and opened it. A green bug slowly awakened inside. Scenting the beetles, it charged like a starving ghost unleashed after decades, causing the beetles to scatter in terror with shrill cries.

The green bug tore through them like a tiger amongst sheep, shredding the beetles into pieces. Black carapaces, transparent wing cases, and yellow bodily fluids fell to the ground.

Zhou Yu watched in utter shock. Over the months of conflict, he had encountered the Black-backed Gold Beetles numerous times. Although they were only first-transformation Gu and hardly grew more powerful, their reproduction was rapid and their carapaces tough.

When deployed, their numbers were overwhelming, much like a plague of locusts. Many early-stage Foundation cultivators found them a nuisance, often forced to retreat when faced with large swarms.

"What is that green bug?" Zhou Yu asked, noting it seemed to be the bane of the Black-backed Gold Beetles.

Liu Zhenxiong casually replied, "Green Armor Immortal, it preys on Black-backed Gold Beetles. I've brought several types of Gu this time to be prepared, and the Green Armor Immortal is just one of them designed to counter these beetles."

Zhou Yu's eyes widened in admiration. Impressive! He felt like a sheltered flower compared to these cultivators from the Extreme Yin Cave, realizing he had much to learn about Gu.

Before all the Black-backed Gold Beetles were exterminated, the Gu Master could no longer sit idle. He moved like a specter among the ruins and trees, drawing closer to the trio.

Suddenly, he burst forth, aiming directly at Zhou Yu!

Zhou Yu frustrated, "Damn it, why target me!"

"Hmph, you're the weakest of the three, who else but you should I kill!" The Gu Master sneered, sending a palm strike straight towards Zhou Yu's face.

Zhou Yu roared in anger, immediately conjuring a small shield in front of him. He also deployed a water barrier that shimmered around him. Despite these defenses, the impact of the strike sent his blood surging violently, nearly causing him to spit blood on the spot.

"Just waiting for you to make your move," Liu Zhenxiong muttered, suddenly pinching his fingers together.

Zhou Yu felt a sharp pain on his shoulder and turned his head to see a bug unexpectedly burrowing out from it. The bug moved incredibly fast and in the blink of an eye, it charged towards the Gu Master. Then, it exploded!

The burst of plasma coalesced into terrifying blood claws that latched onto the Gu Master, immobilizing him. At this moment, Zhou Yu's face was a mask of horror.

'What the heck? Liu Zhenxiong patted my shoulder, and he had already placed a Gu there? The methods of these Extreme Yin Cave guys are too terrifying!'

Liu Zhenxiong watched the Gu Master with an indifferent gaze, having anticipated that he would target the weakest among them, Zhou Yu, and had prepared accordingly.

"Speak, where is Junior Brother Chen Zhaofeng?" Liu Zhenxiong demanded.

The Gu Master, far from intimidated, began to laugh maniacally, his laughter growing louder and more intense. _{freёwebnovel.com}
