C452 A Devouring Bug Appeared Again
Seeing the confident look on his face, Wu Di felt that perhaps he was thinking too much, so he didn't say anything and just waited for the result.
The Rhinoceros King had been angered by Huo Xi before, and now it hated Huo Xi even more. The Rhinoceros King in human form pulled out a white bone spike from its chest. This thing should be inside its body, but it didn't seem to hurt it at all. It should be its weapon.
The Rhinoceros King waved the bone spike and rushed towards Huo Xi. Huo Xi didn't show any weakness. He immediately formed a seal with his hands and chanted the incantation, preparing to use magic to attack the Rhinoceros King.
"Bang!" At this moment, the diamond-shaped bronze mirror appeared between Huo Xi's hands. When it shone on the Rhinoceros King, a ball of fire suddenly shot out from the mirror and attacked the Rhinoceros King.
The Rhinoceros King opened its mouth wide and a huge whirlwind collided with the flame. The powerful force spread to the surroundings, causing sand and stones to fly everywhere. If it wasn't for Wu Di and the others who were protecting the formation, they would have been caught in the crossfire.
"What should we do? Should we go and help?" Wu Di came to Gu Cheng's side and asked.
Although he did not touch what Gu Cheng was thinking, he knew that Gu Cheng would not die like Huo Xi. Otherwise, he would have several chances to kill Gu Cheng in the abyss.
However, Gu Cheng didn't express his opinion this time. Instead, he stood like a statue, wanting to watch from the side.
This made Wu Di feel shocked. At this time, the Rhinoceros King had already attacked Huo Xi with its bone spurs. The bone spurs seemed to be very powerful. They actually broke the mirror of the bronze mirror in an instant.
In fact, Wu Di had only just realized it now. The diamond-shaped mirror wasn't a magic treasure at all. It was the phantom of a bronze mirror condensed by some special technique that Huo Xi had used. Every time this thing appeared, his magic attack would be much stronger, which was why Wu Di thought it was a magic treasure.
Now that the mirror had collapsed, the scattered spiritual energy showed that Huo Xi was in danger.
Huo Xi's speed was not slow. When the Rhinoceros King approached him, he quickly took out a few talismans and prepared to control it.
It was not as good as divine calculation. When the Rhinoceros King approached him, it directly tore apart a few floating talismans with its claws. It did not give Huo Xi the chance to activate the talismans at all.
Seeing this, Huo Xi's body suddenly emitted an earthy yellow light. In the next second, he actually burrowed into the ground and disappeared.
"Burrowing Technique. I never thought that Senior Brother Huo would be a cultivator with dual spiritual roots of fire and earth." Wu Di muttered to himself.
Looking at Huo Xi who had disappeared, Wu Di felt that although this escape technique wasn't very good, it was very useful to protect his life. After he returned to the Sky Reaching Sect, He had to go to the library to look for him. Right now, Wu Di only had one thought in his mind, and that was to find more spells that could help him escape at critical moments. If he wanted to save his life, he would have to rely on himself.
"Senior brother. He ran away!" Zhao Yuan came over to remind him.
"It's time for us to attack. You guys attack the Rhinoceros King together later. Master! I naturally have a way to deal with it." Gu Cheng turned around and ordered.
They all followed Gu Cheng's lead, so they all nodded in agreement. After calculating the time, the group separated and surrounded the Rhinoceros King that was walking towards them.
The Rhinoceros King's eyes were now bright red. It seemed that Huo Xi's escape had provoked the Rhinoceros King to go berserk. Now that it had entered a berserk state, it would not stop until Wu Di and the others were killed.
"Attack!" Gu Cheng suddenly used the Secret Telling through Sound. The few of them received the order to attack the Rhinoceros King at the same time.
The number of people was obviously higher than before, and each of them had their own strengths. Even though the Rhinoceros King had thick skin, it was still unable to withstand the fierce attacks.
When it transformed into a human, its defensive strength was somewhat weak. Therefore, it didn't take long for the Rhinoceros King to roar and restore its true form.
Moo! With a loud roar, the bone spike in the Rhinoceros King's hand directly pierced towards the nearest cultivator. No one doubted that if this bone spike went down, the other party definitely wouldn't be able to survive.
"Azure Dragon Tyrant Body, go!" Wu Di shouted. He was actually distracted while attacking the Rhinoceros King. A green dragon separated from his body and blocked the surrounding of the cultivator.
In an instant, the bone spikes had already arrived, but they directly stabbed into the Azure Dragon Phantom. Of course, the defensive magic that Wu Di used couldn't be said to be very powerful. After all, it was only a strand of spirit energy condensed from Wu Di's spirit energy.
However, the resistance had bought the cultivator some time to escape, allowing him to escape to a safe place in an instant.
The other party gave Wu Di a grateful look and continued to attack the Rhinoceros King.
The good thing about the Rhinoceros King was ruined. Naturally, he felt that Wu Di was an eyesore. He directly stabbed at Wu Di with the bone spurs.
Wu Di's Azure Dragon Divine Fist was originally a strength-type cultivation method. Fighting against Rhinoceros Kings, this kind of thick skin and tough flesh, could be considered evenly matched.
s. The Rhinoceros King was originally standing upright. Now that it was entangled by Wu Di, it immediately lost its balance and could only fall to the ground on all fours.1
At this moment, the bone spurs in the Rhinoceros King's hands could not be used for the time being. When everyone saw this situation, they attacked even harder. And at this time, Gu Cheng finally made a move.
He turned his palm and actually took out a purple brocade box. When the brocade box was opened, a large number of black bugs flew out.
"Wu Di, cast a defensive barrier and protect everyone." Gu Cheng shouted.
Although Wu Di didn't know what Gu Cheng was going to do, he still did as he was told. Everyone seemed to have expected Gu Cheng to use some kind of ruthless move, so they all moved closer to Wu Di and were temporarily protected by Wu Di's defensive magic.
Those bugs quickly flew towards the Rhinoceros King. Some of them flew directly towards Wu Di and the others. Fortunately, the defensive magic blocked all of them outside.
Wu Di's eyelids twitched when he took a glance. Wasn't this the kind of strange bugs that could eat human flesh on the way back?
He was covered in a layer of cold sweat. If he had used a defensive spell a little slower, they would have turned into skeletons.
After those bugs flew onto the Rhinoceros King's body, they began to gnaw at it with all their might. As the Rhinoceros King's skin was relatively thick, even these strange bugs might not be able to swallow the Rhinoceros King in an instant.
However, the power of these bugs was enormous. The Rhinoceros King began to howl in pain continuously, jumping around in an attempt to shake off these detestable things. This reaction was enough to let them understand that these bugs also had the same destructive power towards the Rhinoceros King.
It was unknown whether these bugs had the ability to sense each other. Originally, only a small part of them were released. Soon, Wu Di saw a large number of these bugs flying in all directions.
At this time, Gu Cheng also quickly entered Wu Di's protective light shield to avoid these bugs' damage.
"Senior Brother Gu, the method you said is to let these bugs eat the Rhinoceros King and turn it into a skeleton? Is this possible?" Wu Di looked at the thick layer of insects covering the Rhinoceros King's body. It seemed like it was only a matter of time before this Rhinoceros King would be completely devoured by the insects.
"I don't know. I found these insects on the way here. I thought they might be useful, so I used the box to catch some of them. I didn't expect the number of these insects to be so shocking." Gu Cheng's expression was a bit ugly at this moment.
It was obvious that the large number of insects flying from other places was not part of his plan. The current situation was not much safer for them.
"How long can you hold on?" Gu Cheng still knew that he had to consider the real situation.
Wu Di said helplessly, "Fifteen minutes at most."
If he was alone, it wouldn't be a problem for him to maintain it for long. Anyway, the small caldron would help him replenish his spirit energy at any time.
But now that Wu Di was using a large-scale defensive spell, the amount of spirit energy he consumed naturally increased exponentially. It wasn't something that could be recovered immediately by replenishing his spirit energy.
"That's enough." Gu Cheng looked at Hei Meng after he finished speaking.
Hei Meng didn't need to tell Gu Cheng what he meant. He took out a pile of array flags from his storage ring and started to set up a defensive formation.
The strength of the formation was related to the strength of the person who set it up. However, in order to extend the duration of the formation, it required a large amount of spirit stones.
