I don’t know if these silver beetles can locate sounds or transmit information to each other.
As Gao Yuan ran quickly, not only were the beetles falling from the nearby poplar trees chasing him quickly, but even near the poplar trees hundreds of meters away, large silver beetles were buzzing and rising from time to time.
After a brief pause, he moved towards Gao Yuan to double-team him.
Further ahead, near the road leading directly to the valley exit, more and more silver beetles were flying and gathering from both sides of the road.
It was faintly blocked on Gao Yuan's only way out of the valley. Gao Yuan had no choice but to take a detour.
But the silver beetles seemed to be all over the entire valley. No matter how Gao Yuan changed directions, there were always large buzzing beetles blocking the way wherever he went.
Not far in front of him, some beetles had already vaguely caught up with Gao Yuan.
Although these silver beetles looked small in size, they were really heavy. They flew into the protective light shield and the impact was very violent.
At the same time, the power of its mouthparts is truly astonishing. Just dozens of beetles gnawing around the protective mask caused the golden nodes on the surface of the dark golden mask to be quickly extinguished.
In shock, Gao Yuan quickly changed the amulet while frantically activating the wind technique. His body swayed continuously like a pendulum, narrowly avoiding these silver figures who rushed straight in front of him while the protective light shield was extinguished.
beetle.
After the extra time, Gao Yuan no longer dared to give these beetles a chance to get close. While running, he had to keep bowing or rolling to avoid the attacks of the insect swarms.
For those who really couldn't escape, they used their Lingxi fingers to forcefully blast out a hole several feet in diameter in the insect swarm, and then managed to pass through it while holding on to the protective light shield before the energy turbulence detonated by the force had subsided.
As Gao Yuan continued to break through, more and more beetles surrounded him, and the space for him to run was shrinking.
No matter which direction Gao Yuan ran, there were dense and overwhelming silver beetles blocking his way.
In addition, the defense of these beetles is also very strong. Even the enhanced version of Lingxi Zhijing's bombardment can only repel them, but it is difficult to kill these beetles. Gao Yuan can't help but feel a sense of powerlessness in his heart.
Just when the swarm of insects covering the sky was about to submerge Gao Yuan, Gao Yuan, who was concentrating his energy on the spot to attack in vain, suddenly felt a vague pulling force coming from the air diagonally above.
At first, Gao Yuan thought it was the squeezing force produced by too many beetles surrounding the protective light shield. Just as he was trying to force his way through the breach created by his sharp fingers, the pulling force suddenly became stronger.
Gao Yuan only felt that there seemed to be a giant hand pulling on his robe diagonally above him, and there was a vague tendency to pull him into the air.
The beetles flying around were even worse, like confetti under a vacuum cleaner, whirring and gathering somewhere in the sky.
Gao Yuan struggled to stabilize his body while turning his head to look in the direction where the pulling force came from.
I saw a fist-sized void light point floating quietly in the sky diagonally in front of me. With this light point as the center, the surrounding space was rhythmic like water waves from time to time. As time went by, the frequency of the rhythm was still accelerating.
And as the rhythm became faster and faster, the pulling force from the direction of the light spot became stronger and stronger, and Gao Yuan gradually found it difficult to control his body!
Affected by the pull of the sky, the surrounding beetles continued to fly into the air. Along with a large number of dry vines and slightly rotten leaves, they gradually condensed into a huge sphere with a diameter of nearly ten meters with a void point of light as the center.
It also opened up.
Only then did Gao Yuan notice a black figure standing dozens of meters away from him.
This man was standing next to the remains of a fallen poplar tree, facing high into the distance, his whole body covered in a black cloak.
The wide hood covered most of his face, and a strange metallic luster appeared on his slightly exposed chin.
Gao Yuan was suddenly shocked at this. He had seen this person before. This person was the mysterious person he met outside Qingyuan Mountain before!
I saw this man slightly raising his head and staring at the void point of light in the sky. His right hand with five fingers spread out was raised high in the direction of the void point of light. In front of the palm wrapped in black gloves, the air seemed to be roasted by fire.
distortion.
As there are fewer and fewer beetles nearby, the suction force in the air continues to increase, pulling beetles further away.
Gao Yuan's feet were also pulled slightly off the ground, and he couldn't help but twist in a panic.
The mysterious man opposite seemed to have noticed Gao Yuan's predicament. He stretched out his free left hand and pointed at Gao Yuanyuan. Gao Yuan suddenly felt his shoulders sink, and then he fell steadily to the ground.
At this moment, the movements of the mysterious man opposite him changed again. His raised right hand flipped slightly and then clenched tightly. Gao Yuan subconsciously looked at the swarm of insects in the sky.
I saw the surface of the giant insect ball in the sky shaking violently. Along with a shock wave that spread to all directions, the entire insect ball suddenly collapsed inwards by nearly half.
Accompanied by a "beep" sound like exploding beans, countless blue juices splashed out at high speed. Before they flew far, they were pulled by invisible forces and strangely converged in the direction of the light spot.
The giant insect ball, which was originally mainly silver-white, was dyed with a layer of strange dark blue.
Gao Yuan subconsciously looked around and made a rough estimate in his mind. With just one blow, more than two-thirds of the silver beetles in the valley were killed!
Only those beetles that were particularly far away were not affected and survived by chance. Gao Yuan couldn't help but secretly clicked his tongue in his heart.
As if the mysterious man had done something insignificant, he waved his palm casually, and the insect ball in the sky was violently thrown out with his movement, flying hundreds of meters away before being smashed.
On the ground, it fell into a puddle of mud with a "pop" sound.
Gao Yuan was about to run over to thank him for saving his life, but the mysterious man on the opposite side suddenly turned his head and looked in the direction where the insect ball flew out. Gao Yuan also followed suit.
I saw where the insect ball shattered, and countless green light spots flew out from the group of broken beetle corpses, spontaneously gathering somewhere in the sky, flickering like will-o'-the-wisps.
These light spots gathered together in mid-air, gradually forming a slightly distorted blue blurred figure.
After the figure appeared, the remaining silver beetles in the entire valley buzzed and gathered together, as if under some kind of guidance, and hovered above the figure's head, forming a funnel-shaped insect cloud.
The figure looked a little dazed at first, but after a moment of pause, he gradually became more alert.
He first looked down at the densely packed beetle carcasses on the ground, and then looked up at the number of remaining beetles above his head. An expression of shock and anger suddenly appeared on his face.
He flicked his finger at a certain beetle hovering above his head, and the latter immediately flew over obediently and hovered in front of the blue figure.
As soon as the figure pointed at the beetle, it stopped moving, as if it was quietly feeling something.
After a while, the figure seemed to know the whole story. He looked at the mysterious man fiercely and moved his mouth silently, as if he was questioning something.
The mysterious man seemed to be able to hear the voice of the figure, and he slightly raised his head and chatted with the other person for a few words.
During this period, he also raised his right hand to make a fist, making the figure opposite him furious.
After a while, the light spots that formed the figure gradually dimmed. The figure said a few words angrily, then turned around and stared at Gao Yuan fiercely, and finally turned into countless light spots and extinguished in the air.
