Chapter 704 - The Powerful Worms
After rushing into the Wormhole passageway, a nearly 100-feet-tall huge worm pounced toward Di Jiu.
Di Jiu sent a fist move out and the colorful worm splashed onto the ground, looking disgusting.
Meanwhile, hundreds of worms rushed forward and attacked Di Jiu, disregarding their lives.
These worms were nothing for Di Jiu. He raised his hand and sent a fist move out, turning a large number of worms into scraps.
In just a few seconds, the worms in the Wormhole increased in number and endless worms rushed over from the direction of the Dao World.
Di Jiu had actually been bound by worms in this narrow space, which made him furious. Even though he could escape, he did not leave. His Heavenly Aqua Saber turned into saber screens, killing this swarm of worms with its saber flares before they fell to the ground.
Based on Di Jiu’s experience, the worms would disperse after they were killed to a certain extent.
What made Di Jiu feel dumbfounded was that no matter how many worms he killed, the dead worms blocked the passageway and the worms rushed over endlessly.
Di Jiu also discovered that the worm carcasses were very soon swallowed by the worms behind them.
Then, the aura would increase by a level.
Something was not right.
“I seem to smell a bloody aura that comes after the worms are killed,” said a slightly older male cultivator.
After hearing the cultivator’s words, several people around shouted, “I thought this was my misconception, but it turns out you guys have the same feeling!”
Shen Changshui replied in a low voice, “It seems I’m right. I thought it was absolutely impossible because this Wormhole is rumored to lead to the Worm Protectorate through many spatial wind blades and turbulence. Even if we kill over tens of thousands of worms, we may not be able to smell the odor. Now that we do, unless it’s fake, it means that someone has really killed over hundreds of millions of worms in this Wormhole. This is simply…”
Shen Changshui did not go on, thinking that this was kind of incredible.
…
Di Jiu felt a little weak all over and his Spiritual Sea hurt. He actually doubted whether he could persist.
He decided to persist for half a day. No matter what, he would have to enter the Ninth World to rest for a while and he did not care about exposing it. If this continued, maybe his Spiritual Sea would collapse.
For more than half a month, he did not know how many worms had been killed by him in the Wormhole. Di Jiu estimated that the number of worms he had killed had to be hundreds of millions.
What surprised Di Jiu was that, although he planned to enter the Ninth World and rest, the overwhelming worms suddenly retreated. When Di Jiu’s Spiritual Sea was eased, he noticed that the man with the human head and worm’s body had long disappeared.
Di Jiu, who was injured, fell to the ground. His Spiritual Sea had not suffered light injuries.
Di Jiu wondered in confusion what that guy with the human head and worm’s body had meant to do. Had he just sent over hundreds of millions of worms for him to kill? After he’d waited for him to kill these hundreds of millions of worms, he had just retreated?
Di Jiu shook his head. In any case, he did not have the energy to think about this. He was only glad that he had rushed into the Wormhole ahead of time. If he had been in the Worm Protectorate, Di Jiu doubted that he would have had a chance to come to the Wormhole again.
After swallowing a few Dao pills, Di Jiu struggled to rush toward the Dao World. If it weren’t for the man with the human head and worm’s body, Di Jiu would have set up a Defensive Confinement Array in the Wormhole. After seeing that guy, Di Jiu had realized that it would be useless to set up even a level-seven Divine Array. Besides, he could not set up that array without using the Five-Element Flags.
Plop! When Di Jiu rushed out of the Wormhole, he fell to the ground, heaving a sigh of relief. He had finally exited the Wormhole. If another wave of worms had besieged him, he would really have had no way to get out.
When he rushed out of a Wormhole alone, everyone outside the Wormhole was surprised.
Di Jiu grabbed a few elixir pills and swallowed them before he waved to the cultivators guarding the Wormhole. “Do your thing. I’m only passing by. I will leave after taking a break.”
After saying that, Di Jiu did not care whether there was anyone beside him. He only focused on recovering his Essence Energy. However, after a long time, he stopped. He knew that he could not do so here. He had to leave the Wormhole first.
“Brother Di, is that you?” A surprised voice addressed Di Jiu.
