"But the power of the sandstorm seems to be more terrifying than the insect swarm. Wouldn't it be more dangerous for you to enter the sandstorm? No, no!".
Zhang Zili felt that this method would not work. If he entered a sandstorm, wouldn't he be courting death?
"There is no other way. Who told me that I don't have an intermediate flying magic weapon?".
Xiao Hua said something deliberately.
"This? I, I'm sorry, Brother Xiao, I, I didn't think so much just now."
Zhang Zili's face turned red.
She also knew that the swarm of insects was attracted by her, but the reason why she flew towards Xiao Hua just now was just a subconscious move.
No wonder.
If a person encounters danger in the wild, he will usually run to a place with people. This is an instinct, and immortal cultivators are no exception.
"Okay, let's not talk anymore, fellow Taoist, you can leave quickly, I'm going."
After Xiao Hua finished speaking, he stepped on the magic weapon, turned around, and flew quickly towards the black armored larvae behind him.
Zhang Zili stopped, gritted his teeth, and then turned around.
"Wait for me, I'll go with you."
"Hey, you are sick, go back quickly, go back quickly."
"I attracted the bug, I can't leave."
Zhang Zili caught up with Xiao Hua.
"I didn't expect you to be quite loyal. Okay, let's fight together."
Xiao Hua felt warm in his heart.
Although Zhang Zili attracted the swarm of insects, she did not abandon herself and escape alone. This shows that although Zhang Zili is a pig teammate, she is the kind of little silly pig who will jump down to accompany you even if she knows it is a fire pit.
So Xiao Hua and Zhang Zili took the initiative to carry their swords and shields, and flew towards the swarm of black beetles together.
As soon as you get close to the insect swarm, you hear "tap-tap-tap-tap...".
Countless egg-sized black beetle larvae crawled all over their swords and shields.
The swords and shields on the two men kept emitting sword light "Pah, Pah, Pah...", and penetrated the black beetle larvae covering the swords and shields and fell.
The two of them also kept waving the sword light in their hands, frantically killing the larvae around them.
However, the attack frequency of the sword light and sword shield is too slow, and the number of black armor larvae is too many, so it is impossible to kill them.
Their swords and shields were soon covered in layers of black beetle larvae, and even the road could no longer be seen.
The sharp teeth of the black armor larvae kept biting the swords and shields of Xiao Hua and Zhang Zili, "Crack, click, click, click..." After a while, the swords and shields on their bodies became thinner.
"Damn, this is consumed too quickly, isn't it?"
Xiao Hua was a little nervous.
At this speed, their swords and shields might not be able to support them enough to fly into the sandstorm.
Xiao Hua stopped the sword light in his hand.
"Friend Li Dao, let's not kill him, keep our sword and shield and fly at full strength."
"good!".
Zhang Zili also stopped the sword light in his hand and poured mana into the sword and shield on his body.
Fortunately, these black beetle larvae were only level two and could damage the sword and shield relatively slowly. They could still manage to survive by injecting mana into the sword and shield, but there were too many bugs and their mana was consumed very quickly.
Seeing that the sword and shield were getting thinner and thinner, and they were getting closer and closer to the sandstorm, and they could already feel the strong wind outside the sandstorm, their flying speed suddenly slowed down.
"What's going on? Brother Xiao, why do I feel like I'm flying slower and slower?"
Zhang Zili shouted.
Xiao Hua also felt something unusual. When he took a closer look, he found that the black beetle larvae parked on his sword and shield had stopped biting and were flapping their wings crazily in one direction.
"It's the larvae on the sword and shield flying in the opposite direction, and they're slowing us down."
"What should we do? We can't stop it?"
Zhang Zili was also a little panicked.
"No matter what, we're only a few miles away from the sandstorm. If that doesn't work, just burn your essence and blood and fly at full speed and fight."
but.
Xiao Hua had just finished speaking when a giant sand dune suddenly rose up from the sand in front of him like a volcano erupting.
A puff of yellow sand spurted out from the middle of the dune, and then a huge beetle head came out.
"The black-armored dung beetle is the female insect. The female insect is here!".
Zhang Zili screamed.
"No matter what, success or failure depends on this, we sprint with all our strength."
Xiao Hua finally understood why those black beetle larvae were flying in reverse direction to slow them down. They were waiting for the mother worm. As soon as the mother worm came, he and Zhang Zili would be 100% doomed.
Sure enough, as soon as the black-armored dung beetle raised its head and front feet from the ground, it opened its huge mouth and took a deep breath.
Xiao Hua saw a wave of void in the black-armored dung beetle's mouth, and a burst of red light appeared in the black-armored dung beetle's mouth.
Immediately afterwards, a thick flame like lava spurted towards him.
"Depend on".
Xiao Hua made an emergency dodge, trying to avoid the flames.
But this demonic insect is at the sixth level and has a high level of intelligence, so its flames are ahead of schedule.
Xiao Hua's dodge angle when flying at full speed was limited, and he only dodged half of it. This burst of flames hit the right side of Xiao Hua's sword and shield.
"Bang".
Xiao Hua's sword and shield shattered.
The black-armored larvae covering his sword and shield were blown up all over the sky, and Xiao Hua staggered and fell from the flying magic weapon.
"Brother Xiao".
Zhang Zili dived quickly, exploded his sword and shield with a "bang" before Xiao Hua fell to the ground, blew up all the black armor larvae, and caught Xiao Hua.
but.
Although Zhang Zili caught Xiao Hua, their current flying height was only more than ten meters above the ground, and this height was right at the mouth of the black-armored dung beetle.
"Leave me alone and leave quickly."
Xiao Hua roared, and while reaching out to recall his flying magic weapon, he jumped up. He wanted to jump off Zhang Zili's flying magic weapon and let Zhang Zili leave quickly.
Zhang Zili grabbed him.
"Don't go, the sandstorm is coming!".
Xiao Hua looked up and saw that more than ten meters in front of him, there was a roaring wind, rolling sand waves, gravel flying in the air, and fog covering the sky. In an instant, he couldn't see his fingers, and he couldn't see his fists when he returned, and a sandstorm was coming.
The huge black-armored dung beetle opened its hard wings, and the black-armored larvae in the air flew in one after another, and then plunged down and "poof", submerged into the ground. Xiao Hua and Zhang Zili were instantly swallowed up by the sandstorm.
"Rumble...woo...".
There was a whistling sound in her ears, and the sky was dark in front of her eyes. Zhang Zili's flying magic weapon was blown away. She and Xiao Hua could only hold hands and circle and dance in the strong wind of the sandstorm.
Circling and flying is a nice thing to say.
In fact, they were blown up and down by the whirlwind in the sandstorm, their bodies were spinning uncontrollably, they were dizzy, and they were about to be blown away soon.
A sandstorm is not just a strong wind carrying sand and dust, it is a large storm composed of countless tornadoes, with thunder and lightning in the middle.
The reason why Xiao Hua and Zhang Zili were flying up and down in the strong wind was because they were picked up by one whirlwind and thrown into another whirlwind, up and down, and repeated.
This is nothing, what's more terrible is that both of their body-protecting swords and shields were broken.
Once the shield is broken, it will take a while before it can be released, so in addition to being blinded by the wind and sand and circling up and down, the two of them are also being beaten to the point of raw pain by all kinds of dead branches and gravel in the strong wind.
