453: C453 They Were Used as Cannon Fodder

C453 They Were Used as Cannon Fodder

Now, for everyone's safety, it would cost a great deal of spirit stones, and they would have to wait for the bugs to disperse before they could be safe.

At this time, the Rhinoceros King was still struggling on its deathbed. It rolled on the ground with all its might. Shrill screams rose and fell one after another, shaking the eardrums of Wu Di and the others. After an unknown amount of time, they saw that the originally powerful Rhinoceros King had bones on its body. Clearly, its flesh and blood had been eaten by those bugs.

"Such a heaven defying thing actually exists in Qingtian Mountain. How many Demonic Beasts on this mountain can be devoured?" Zhao Yuan said with an ugly expression.

"These bugs still have restrictions. They can't be devoured indefinitely. Everything in the world is mutually exclusive. I believe there must be something powerful that can lead these insects here." Gu Cheng said.

Everyone's expression was solemn. They were only here to complete the mission, but now they were in danger everywhere. They couldn't help but sigh at the fragility of their lives.

"Moo!" With a final miserable howl, the ground began to shake. This level seven Demonic Beast was swallowed by a group of strange bugs just like that, leaving only white bones.

The bugs lost their target and began searching everywhere for their next target. Of course, they locked onto Wu Di and the others. They rushed toward Wu Di. The defensive light shields blocked all the bugs that were rushing towards them, but they surrounded them in a dark circle. It was actually a dense and impenetrable light. The world that Wu Di and the others were looking at... It turned black.

In a situation where they could not see their own fingers, someone used a fire spell to temporarily illuminate everything in front of them.

"Hei Meng, how is the situation? I can't take it anymore."

Wu Di could already feel a fishy taste in his throat. This was a situation where he had used up too much of his spirit energy. If this continued, he would vomit blood.

At this time, Hei Meng stuck the last flag down. An invisible circle of spirit energy quickly spread out, and yellow light shields appeared in the surroundings. This proved that the protective formation had succeeded.

"That's enough!"

After hearing this, Wu Di quickly removed his defensive spell and took a step back. His body trembled, and a trace of blood leaked out from the corner of his mouth.

"Are you alright?" Gu Cheng still knew how to care.

Wu Di shook his head and wiped the blood off the back of his hand. Then he looked around. The insects were blocked by the light shield, but they were still moving forward. Fortunately, the formation was still stable, so the insects could not break through.

"Senior Brother Gu, the rhino horn is right there, but how are we going to deal with the insects?" One of the unfamiliar cultivators walked up to Gu Cheng and asked.

Gu Cheng's expression was solemn as he said, "Let's wait for now. These insects are very ferocious. Only those who can resist the corrosion of these insects can leave the formation and retrieve the rhino horn."

Wu Di had a bad feeling when he heard this. Sure enough, many people had their eyes on him. Even Gu Cheng noticed something and looked at Wu Di.

"Don't tell me you want me to retrieve the rhino horn?" Cold sweat appeared on Wu Di's forehead.

"Wu Di, you are the most suitable person for now. Your defensive technique is so powerful that it consumes a lot of spiritual energy to protect all of us, but if you are alone, the situation will be much easier. " We must bring this rhino horn back to Young Master. If we fail the mission, not only will we be punished, but we may not be able to bear the consequences. "

Gu Cheng tried to persuade him, but he said that Wu Di must take the risk. Wu Di's heart was filled with bitterness. It was only a small matter that he didn't get bitten by those insects, but who knew if there would be any more powerful Demonic Beasts later. With his current cultivation base, it was as hard as ascending to the heavens to save his life.

"Don't worry. If there is any danger, I will definitely save you." Gu Cheng reached out and patted Wu Di's shoulder, as if he would do as he said.

Wu Di cursed in his heart. If he had known that following Gu Cheng would bring him so much trouble, he wouldn't have asked to find any demonic devils. It was too late for him to regret now.

Green light radiated from his body. A Azure Dragon Phantom circled around Wu Di and returned to his body. At this moment, a layer of green light surrounded Wu Di, making him look even more demonic.

"Be careful." Gu Cheng warned Wu Di, waiting for him to get out of the formation.

"Senior Brother Gu, since you chose me to take the risk, you can't let it go to waste. I can give you that Rhinoceros King, other than the rhino horn, can you give me anything else that is useful?"

Gu Cheng thought for a moment and felt that this was reasonable, so he nodded and agreed to Wu Di's request.

Wu Di took a deep breath. Regarding the matter of him being sent as cannon fodder, he naturally had a lot of opinions in his heart. It seemed that he would have to have a good talk with Gu Cheng after this matter was over.

He had helped the other party so much. There was no reason for him to be captured every time.

As soon as they left the formation, those bugs flew towards Wu Di. At this time, Wu Di waved his palm, and the Earth Fire Seed in his body quickly floated out.

The Earth Fire Seed had become even purer after absorbing the flames from the magma monster's body the last time. Its power was definitely not something ordinary fire spells could compare with.0

When the earth fire burned onto the insects' bodies, the insects turned into ashes.

Wu Di heaved a sigh of relief when he saw this scene. As long as there was something that could deal with these bugs, he wouldn't have to worry about becoming a meal for the bugs.

The Earth Fire Seed circled around Wu Di. The bugs that tried to approach him would dissipate when they touched the flames.

Some of the bugs seemed to think that attacking Wu Di wasn't a wise decision, so they eventually returned to the large-scale formation, trying to find a way to break through the formation and eat the human cultivators inside.

Some of the insects surrounding Wu Di were burned away by the flames. Some of them surrounded Wu Di, as if they were ready to devour him when the opportunity presented itself.

Without these bugs blocking his line of sight, Wu Di quickly arrived in front of the Rhinoceros King that had turned into a skeleton.

Wu Di bent down and picked up a bone. He used his spirit energy to see how hard the bone was. In the end, he used very much spirit energy to finally create a crack on the bone. This was a pretty good forging material.

Wu Di collected the bones into his Storage Ring without saying anything. Then, he went to the Rhinoceros King's head and took out a black dagger. He easily cut off the rhino horn.

Just as he was about to leave, Wu Di found a golden bead. It seemed to be the Rhinoceros King's soul bead. This was a great nourishment. Wu Di naturally put it into his Storage Ring.

After finishing all of this, Wu Di planned to return to the formation. This mission was finally completed without any danger. But just as he turned around, he saw Gu Cheng and the others' expressions change.

He reacted quickly and immediately realized that the situation was not good. But in the next second, he was dragged into the ground by a powerful force and disappeared without a trace.

Even if Gu Cheng wanted to save Wu Di, it was too late. He did not know what kind of powerful thing had taken Wu Di away. It had scared away all those insects that ate flesh and blood.

Until there were no more insects around. Gu Cheng was the first to rush out of the formation and run towards the place where Wu Di had disappeared.

The others followed him. They saw a large hole in the ground. It looked bottomless. They didn't know if Wu Di would still be alive after being captured.

"What should we do now?" Someone asked.

Zhao Yuan said, "No, we can't just leave Wu Di alone. It's easy for me to find a good brother, but we can't just leave him alone. Senior Brother Gu, we have to find a way to save Wu Di. "

Although Huo Xi didn't say anything, the seriousness on his face indicated that he was worried about Wu Di.

As for Hei Meng and the other three cultivators, they were close friends with Wu Di. Naturally, they didn't show much anxiety.

Gu Cheng looked at the dark cave and gritted his teeth, "If we don't bring back the rhino horn, we won't be able to escape punishment. Since that's the case, why don't we go down and take a look? If there's any danger, we can just escape."

"Do you think it's senior disciple Huo?"

Everyone had just seen Huo Xi using the Earth Escape Technique to escape. Therefore, it was reasonable for Zhao Yuan to have such a guess.
