The Glorious Summoner

Chapter 388



388 Chapter 388-victory in the beginning

A few days later, in the underground crack outside the undying city.

...

Looking from above, the underground crack looked like a huge Canyon. On both sides of the canyon were steep mountain walls and jagged rocks.

Some fluorescent stalagmites with a faint green light were hidden among the rocks, decorating the dark Canyon. There were tall underground fern plants growing in the canyon. From the cracks and hot springs in the canyon, a hot air with a sulfuric smell would occasionally spray out. Beside the canyon, there was a River of dark red lava slowly flowing.

There were also some cracks in the canyon, which were dozens of meters wide and even hundreds of meters wide. It was dark and endless, leading to an even deeper and bottomless underground.

The Mantis blade bugs crawled out of the cracks in the canyon and rushed to the surface.

This was the liveliest black wind Canyon outside the undying city. The black wind Canyon was a well-known battlefield outside the undying city. The huge Canyon was tens of thousands of kilometers long and winding. There were all kinds of maze-like caves and complex terrain in the canyon. It had also become one of the main battlefields of Summoners and zergs in the undying city.

Most of the insects that appeared here were six sun realm Mantis blade insects. Occasionally, there would be seven sun realm, or ethereal opening realm insects.

In the darkness, one could see flashes and flames from the sky or the ground in the distance. They flickered like artillery fire on the battlefield. It was a Summoner fighting the bugs.

Over the years, countless Summoners had fallen here. On the way from the undying city to here, there were tombstones of the fallen Summoners everywhere.

But even so, it couldn’t stop the summoners who were still alive.

Of course, there were even more bugs that were killed here.

If one wanted to join Wan Shen sect, become a disciple of Wan Shen sect, and obtain the extremely rare sagemaster realm bead, they would have to prove it with their battle achievements and strength.

The Mantis blade bugs here not only had bug crystals, but also various rare realm pearls. Therefore, some of the summoners who came here were not even disciples of the WAN Shen sect. They just used the undying city as their base and came here to hunt for bugs and obtain realm pearls. Undying city also welcomed such Summoners.

Xia Pingan had been here for an entire day.

The day before yesterday, when he left undying city, he flew to black wind Canyon with many Summoners. After arriving here, except for a few fixed groups and acquaintances, everyone was fighting on their own. Everyone was a stranger and was on guard against each other. If they were forced to stay together, no one would be at ease. It was better to find their own opportunities.

Xia ping ‘an was sitting on a stalagmite more than 20 meters high in the valley. He looked a little arrogant. He used an illusion to cover his figure. Ordinary people could only see the stalagmites on the ground and not the person.

There was a large area of greyish white mushrooms under the stalactite. There were some cracks leading to the underground near those mushrooms. There were even body parts of the dead Mantis blade insects in the cracks of rocks nearby. Given the look of those body parts, Zhang tie knew that they had been there for a few years.

Xia ping ‘an didn’t go looking for the Mantis blade bug. He just waited here for the Mantis blade bug to come to him, just like fishing.

The environment here meant that there would be Mantis blade bugs roaming around, which could be considered a ” nest “. In that case, he did not have to bother looking everywhere. He only had to familiarize himself with the nearby terrain and wait. This was Xia Pingan’s strategy.

In this unfamiliar black wind Canyon, it was actually more dangerous to run around. It was actually wiser to find a familiar place as his ” home ground.

The illusion of the Beacon toying with feudal vassals could only make it harder for other Summoners to discover him, but it was useless against the Mantis blade bug. Xia Pingan had already experienced it before. As long as a Mantis blade bug appeared in the vicinity, it would definitely discover him.

After sitting here for a day, Xia ping ‘an had recuperated and built up his energy. His condition had already reached its peak.

There will always be gains waiting, Yingluo.

When a dazzling flame broke out in the sky over 60 miles away, Xia ping ‘an heard a fine rustling sound from an underground crack over 200 m away. After hearing that sound, Xia ping’ an imagined that a Mantis blade insect was climbing out of the crack one step after another–the Mantis blade insect’s 3 pairs of long legs were inserted into the crack of the cliff like blades. It was climbing up with an agility that did not match its size.

The hard and rugged rock wall of the underground crack was as soft as tofu under the Mantis blade insect’s long legs. With a slight thrust, the Mantis blade insect’s long legs could silently penetrate half a foot into the rock wall.

There were also some densely packed potholes on the rock wall. Those were the ” footprints ” left behind by the other Mantis blade bugs. The Mantis blade bugs behind them could easily climb up by stepping on these potholes.

Seeing that the Mantis blade bug was getting closer and closer to the entrance of the cave, Xia Pingan finally made his move. With a leap, he leaped out of the stalagmite like a bird and landed directly near the gap that the Mantis blade bug had crawled out from.

The Mantis blade bug that had just emerged from the underground crack saw Xia Pingan waiting outside the crack the moment it emerged from the ground.

The Mantis blade bug did not hesitate at all. It opened its huge mouth, which was filled with sharp teeth, and its two forelimbs, which were as sharp as swords, stabbed toward Xia Pingan’s chest. It was like a charging tank.

This was the second Mantis blade bug that Xia ping ‘an had encountered. Compared to the first one, it was not inferior in any way, and its movements seemed to be even more Swift and violent. However, he did not know if it was because his current body’s vision had become stronger or if his soul power had increased too much, but when he looked at the Mantis blade bug that was charging at him again, Xia ping’ an could sense a hint of clumsiness and slowness in its movements. There was no longer that oppressive feeling, and Xia ping ‘an’s movements were much faster than this Mantis blade bug.

Xia ping ‘an’s eyes also flashed. He did not cast any spells. Instead, the moment the Mantis blade bug rushed over, he turned over and landed on the Mantis blade bug’s back at a speed faster than the Mantis blade bug. Then, his soul weapon-the seven stars sword whip-appeared in Xia ping’ an’s hand.

The sword whip was still in the shape of a huge sword, powerful and sharp, flashing with a layer of dim light. The sword body hummed without moving, emitting a slight buzzing sound, as if it was thirsty for blood and battle.

With the longsword in hand, Xia Pingan did not even think before he stabbed the longsword under the Mantis blade bug’s head.

Puchi!

The Mantis blade bug’s shell, which was as hard as alloy armor, seemed to have become a thick paper shell at this moment. It was pierced through by Xia Pingan’s giant sword almost without any resistance. The giant sword had sunk more than one meter deep into the Mantis blade bug’s neck, leaving only the thick hilt of the sword stuck to the Mantis blade bug’s neck. The tip of the sword, which was as sharp as a snake’s tail, directly penetrated the Mantis blade bug’s neck, leaving a bloody section.

The Mantis blade bug was stunned!

Xia ping ‘an was also shocked. He didn’t expect his soul weapon to be so terrifying. It pierced through the hardest armor on the Mantis blade bug’s body with just one sword.

Not only that, when the giant sword pierced through the Mantis blade bug’s body, Xia Pingan felt his hands, which were holding the sword, heat up. A comfortable warm current flowed from the sword hilt into his body, replenishing his qi and blood in a frenzy.

This seven stars sword whip soul tool could actually absorb the Mantis blade Bug’s Life force?

Xia Pingan was overjoyed.

The Mantis blade bug had already gone crazy. With a shrill cry, its two terrifying forelimbs waved in the air, one on the left and one on the right, and it slammed them towards Xia Pingan.

Xia ping ‘an, who had succeeded in his attack, was in high spirits. The fear he had for the Mantis blade bug disappeared in an instant. Seeing the Mantis blade bug’s two sharp forelimbs coming towards him, he pulled out his sword and cut a three-foot-long gash on the Mantis blade bug’s neck. Green blood spurted out of the Mantis blade bug’s neck, reaching a height of more than five meters.

Xia Pingan jumped up from the Mantis blade bug’s back with his sword. He aimed at the joint of one of the Mantis blade bug’s forelimbs and slashed at it.

Another stream of blood gushed out of the Mantis blade bug’s body. The forelimb of the Mantis blade bug had been cut off by Xia Pingan’s sword and was sent flying more than ten meters away. The attack of the Mantis blade bug’s other forelimb had also missed.

get down! Xia ping ‘an’s body, which had just leaped up, landed heavily. One of his feet, which was wearing a combat boot, stomped on the Mantis blade bug’s head.

“Crack!”

The Mantis blade bug’s six long legs, under the tremendous force from its back, were directly inserted into the rocks underground. The Mantis blade bug’s huge body and head were also directly stomped by Xia Pingan’s foot and slammed heavily into the ground, sending rocks and soil flying everywhere.

Before the Mantis blade bug could get up again, Xia Pingan’s huge sword was once again thrust into the wound on the Mantis blade bug’s neck. Xia Pingan pressed the hilt of the sword and his body flew down from the back of the Mantis blade bug. The huge sword was like a guillotine as it slashed down from the other side of the Mantis blade bug’s neck.

“BOOM!”

The rock beneath the Mantis blade bug’s head shattered instantly. The sword whip, which had transformed into a giant sword, made a circle around the Mantis blade bug’s neck.

The Mantis blade bug’s hideous head rolled off its body.

The Mantis blade bug, whose head had fallen off, did not die instantly. Or rather, it did not realize that it had died. Its ferocious mouth was still open, revealing a mouth full of sharp teeth, and it bit toward Xia ping ‘an’s feet.

The Mantis blade bug’s body sprawled on the ground. Its six long legs writhed about, and its remaining forelimb flailed about unconsciously.

Green blood spurted out from the Mantis blade bug’s head and neck like water from a pipe, splattering all over the ground.

Xia ping ‘an raised his foot and stomped the Mantis blade bug’s head into the rock beneath his feet. The Mantis blade bug’s huge body twitched twice before it stopped moving.

Faced with such a result, Xia Pingan was stunned for a moment. It was as if he couldn’t believe that he had killed a Mantis blade bug that had chased him to the point of peeing his pants a few days ago just by relying on the strength of his physical body, just like a martial artist.

The power of the soul tool in his hand had completely exceeded his imagination.
