Shirley Yang looked at the corpse beetles, her brows furrowing slightly:
"Boss, didn't you say this thing only eats corpses?"
"Then why are they moving towards us now?"
"Well..." Lin Yang stroked his chin, seemingly lost in thought, and said:
"Perhaps it's because they think we're more delicious than those corpses."
Hu Bayi also noticed something was wrong, and he nervously watched the approaching corpse beetles:
"The boss is right, they're not eating the corpses anymore, they're actually coming towards us. Everyone be careful!"
Upon seeing this, Fatty Wang immediately panicked: "Damn it! I don't want to have any close contact with these disgusting things!"
However, those corpse beetles did not seem to intend to let them go.
They swam in from all directions in an endless stream, surrounding them completely.
In an instant, the water surface was covered with countless corpse beetles, a sight that sent chills down one's spine.
Seeing this, Shirley Yang and the other two had no choice but to take action.
They brandished their weapons, relentlessly killing the approaching carrion beetles.
However, the number of corpse beetles was simply too great; they couldn't possibly kill them all.
Just then, Hu Bayi suddenly unleashed the Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Secret Technique.
A burst of flame erupted from his palm, transforming into a fire dragon that shot straight into the sky.
Immediately afterwards, flames fell like meteors, burning large swathes of corpse beetles to ashes.
"Old Hu is awesome!" Fatty Wang cheered upon seeing this.
Next.
Hu Bayi manipulated the Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Secret Technique, like a god descending to earth.
Various elemental forces danced in his hands, dazzling the eyes of onlookers.
First, a barrage of ice arrows rained down like a storm.
Each ice arrow exuded a chilling aura, as if even the air itself was frozen.
Immediately afterwards, thunder and lightning struck, streaks of lightning piercing the darkness and illuminating the entire ancient tomb.
Flames, water, earth, and rocks—all were under his control.
Although these corpse beetles were numerous, they were as vulnerable as ants in the face of Hu Bayi's secret technique.
In no time, most of the corpse beetles were dealt with, leaving only a few red corpse beetle kings.
These corpse beetle kings were much smaller than other corpse beetles, only about the size of a fist.
But it is extremely fast and has amazing defensive capabilities.
Ordinary attacks do no damage to them at all; instead, they only make them more ferocious.
Chapter 124: Fatty Wang's Unbreakable Frenzy!
"Let me deal with these big bugs."
Wang Pangzi roared, seeing that the ordinary attacks were completely ineffective against the Corpse Beetle King.
His aura hardened, as if he were ready for a decisive battle.
Immediately afterwards, he took a deep breath and unleashed his Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill.
His body instantly became enormous, his skin shining like gold, like a war god descending.
Fatty Wang suddenly leaped up, like a tiger descending a mountain, and pounced straight on one of the Corpse Beetle Kings.
He was incredibly fast, creating a gust of wind that sent sand and stones flying everywhere.
The Corpse Beetle King seemed to have sensed Fatty Wang's approach.
With a flash, he appeared directly behind him.
It opened its sharp, massive jaws and bit down hard on Fatty Wang's back.
You should know that the teeth of this Corpse Beetle King are extremely sharp.
An ordinary person bitten by this substance would be harmed by its potent venom, even if they didn't die. However...
When its teeth bit into Fatty Wang's body, it only made a clanging sound, as if it had bitten into a diamond.
At this moment, Fatty Wang's body was as hard as iron, even harder than diamond.
This is the power of the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill; no matter how much you bite, you cannot break through its defense.
"Die!" Wang Pangzi roared, using the hardness of his body to forcefully withstand the attack of the Corpse Beetle King.
Then, he reached out and, like an iron clamp, tightly gripped the body of the Corpse Beetle King.
With a "crack," Fatty Wang squeezed the Corpse Beetle King so hard that it burst on the spot.
Green pus and blood splattered everywhere, carrying a strong, nauseating stench.
It has to be said that this Corpse Beetle King is different from ordinary Corpse Beetles. After being crushed by Fatty Wang.
Its body instantly turned into a pool of highly toxic green liquid.
It began to corrode Wang Pangzi's arm rapidly.
However, the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill lived up to its name, no matter how much the poison eroded it.
Wang Pangzi's arm remained completely still, without even a hint of redness or swelling on his skin.
Upon seeing this, the other corpse beetle kings seemed to be enraged.
They rushed towards Fatty Wang, seemingly wanting to avenge their companion.
"Hahaha, well done!"
Seeing this, Fatty Wang not only didn't dodge, but instead took the initiative to meet him.
For a time, Fatty Wang was fighting with these corpse beetle kings, and the scene was extremely intense.
Whenever the Corpse Beetle King bites Fatty Wang.
He would grab one and crush it hard.
Green, highly toxic liquid splattered everywhere, but Fatty Wang paid no attention and continued fighting the other Corpse Beetle Kings.
Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang watched from the side and couldn't help but shake their heads.
This fighting style is probably only something someone like Fatty Wang, who possesses the Indestructible Vajra Divine Skill, could pull off.
Anyone else would probably have been poisoned to death by the Corpse Beetle King's deadly venom long ago.
"Looks like it's about to end," Lin Yang said.
No sooner had he finished speaking than Fatty Wang crushed the last Corpse Beetle King.
With the death of the last corpse beetle king!
The entire battlefield fell silent instantly.
Fatty Wang clapped his hands, then walked to the underground river and began washing off the highly toxic liquid from his body.
"Hahaha, that was awesome!" Fatty Wang climbed out of the water, shook off the water droplets, and his face was full of excitement.
"Fatty, you're really something, you even came up with this idea." Hu Bayi looked at Fatty Wang with admiration.
Shirley Yang laughed too: "Your method is really unique, I'm impressed."
Fatty Wang scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly:
"Actually, it's nothing much, it's just that those guys are too fast and hard to catch."
"I thought of the fishing method I used to use: I would use myself as bait to lure them in, and then I would crush them one by one."
"Brilliant, absolutely brilliant!" Hu Bayi once again praised Wang Pangzi's actions highly.
"Fatty, you've really done a great job this time."
The three chatted for a bit, then all looked at Lin Yang, since he was the commander-in-chief of their operation.
"Let's continue on our way," Lin Yang said after glancing around.
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded and continued walking down, but none of them noticed.
A gigantic black shadow silently followed behind.
After walking for a while, Shirley Yang suddenly realized that something was wrong:
"That's strange, where are the corpses?"
Upon hearing this, everyone stopped in their tracks and looked in the direction Shirley Yang was pointing.
The underground river, which should have been filled with a large number of corpses, was now completely empty, with not a single body in sight.
“How could this be?” Hu Bayi frowned.
"Could it have been washed away by the river?" Fatty Wang guessed.
Hu Bayi shook his head, his brows furrowed:
"No, those corpses couldn't possibly have sunk on their own."
“We clearly saw them floating on the water surface before, there must be something fishy going on.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Yang glanced around at his surroundings with a deep gaze before slowly speaking:
"When you were fighting, all your attention was focused on the Corpse Beetle King, and you didn't notice the changes in the river."
"In fact, during your fierce battle, those bodies had already quietly drifted away down the river."
He pointed ahead, his expression grave: "I estimate they should be not far ahead now."
Hu Bayi, Wang Pangzi, and Shirley Yang looked in the direction Lin Yang was pointing.
Just then, Da Fei (Zhao Nuo's) suddenly accelerated forward.
As it moved, the scenery ahead gradually came into view.
