"What are you afraid of? Just fight your way through!" Chen Xun looked disdainfully at the tense group, then swung the longsword in his hand, sending several Sword Qi directly toward the Void Devouring Insects!
The fierce Sword Qi sliced into the swarm, tearing it open. Those Void Devouring Insects struck by the Sword Qi fell to the ground but soon rose up again.
"Your attack is completely useless!" Long Sheng chuckled, his eyes filled with disdain and mockery.
Earlier, Chen Xun had accidentally stabbed Long Sheng, though Chen Xun was unaware at the time, Long Sheng certainly didn't forgive him graciously, as the Evil Young Master Long Sheng was never a person with a broad mind.
"If you have the ability, then step up yourself!" Chen Xun proudly said while holding his sword, "I've heard of Evil Young Master Long Sheng's great name, but I wonder if it's all just for show!"
A cold gleam flashed in Long Sheng's eyes: "What? Are you unconvinced? Do you want to fight?"
At this moment, Ji Jian jumped out to play the peacemaker: "Now's not the time for infighting; we should think about how to shake off these Void Devouring Insects!"
Suddenly, Hao Lian Wushuang spoke up: "Have you guys noticed that these Void Devouring Insects are somewhat different from what we knew before?"
"What's different?" Not only Chen Xun and the others looked toward Hao Lian Wushuang, even the Angels did.
Hao Lian Wushuang said solemnly: "We all know that Void Devouring Insects are very powerful; ordinary masters of the Divine Sea Realm can't completely destroy them. That's why it's believed that only experts of the Azure Sky Realm can eliminate Void Devouring Insects! But now, although these Void Devouring Insects are also strong, they don't give us that kind of unbeatable feeling!"
"If they were real Void Devouring Insects, Chen Xun's Sword Qi just now probably wouldn't have even scratched them, let alone knocked them down!" Hao Lian Wushuang said bluntly.
Ling Feng rubbed his chin and said, "So, you're saying these Void Devouring Insects are just putting up a front?"
"Not just a front, but they haven't fully matured yet!" At this time, the Golden Winged Angel added: "From my observations just now, I've noticed this problem too. Mature Void Devouring Insects require a huge amount of Vital Energy, which is why they keep devouring!"
"The reason these Void Devouring Insects don't seem that strong is because they haven't reached their mature phase yet! That also presents us with an opportunity!" The Golden Winged Angel said: "Seize the chance to break through their blockade and use the quickest speed to get to the teleportation array and leave."
The Golden Winged Angel's words made everyone present nod in agreement.
"In that case, let's charge!" Long Sheng licked his lips, flame appearing on his arm: "Flame Wave Fist, break it for me!"
A Flame Wave Fist, a massive blast of fire cleared a path, and the people from the Divine Realm and Angel World took the opportunity to rush out.
Those Void Devouring Insects, noticing their prey suddenly escaping, buzzed and rushed toward Ling Feng and the others.
The Void Devouring Insects moved quickly, and the last angel quickly got caught.
"Ah, help me, save me!" came the angel's desperate scream from behind, the voice full of terror and sharpness.
Everyone couldn't help but turn back, only to see a scene that made their scalps tingle!
Hundreds of Void Devouring Insects surrounded that angel, their saw-like mouths tore through the angel's defenses, continually gnawing at the angel's flesh, and even some Void Devouring Insects drilled into the angel's body.
"Help me, help me!" The angel writhed in agony on the ground, stretching out a hand to the others, but no one dared to go forward to rescue!
Once caught by the Void Devouring Insects, there was only one way out—death!
The Golden Winged Angel gritted their teeth, with a wave of the hand, a beam of golden light shot into the angel's head. The angel's body trembled, the light in their eyes vanished completely, and they were utterly gone.
"The best I can do is to let you go quickly," the Golden Winged Angel took a deep breath: "We need to speed up, lagging behind means being devoured by the Void Devouring Insects!"
At this moment, a voice came through from the Insect Taoist: "Haha, I didn't expect there to be a few fish that slipped through the net here. I was planning to deal with those old fellows, but it looks like only a few of you are left. You better come with me!"
As the voice fell, Ling Feng and the others felt as though they and the surrounding air were sealed, countless Void Devouring Insects surged toward them.
"It's over, we're completely done for this time!" Ling Feng thought in despair, realizing he couldn't even use the Sky Spirit Stone now, if surrounded by the Void Devouring Insects...
But to everyone's surprise, the charging Void Devouring Insects didn't devour them, instead, they lifted them and flew into the distance.
"Could it be they're taking us to the Insect Taoist?" thought Ling Feng to himself, actually quite interested in the Insect Taoist who could control the Void Devouring Insects, of course, as long as they're not used as feed for the insects.
As expected, the Void Devouring Insects brought Ling Feng and the group to the bottom of a high mountain, below which lay an unfathomable canyon, from whose depths countless Void Devouring Insects flew out, and countless others flew back in.
Thus it seemed this was the Insect Taoist's lair.
Sure enough, when Ling Feng and the others were delivered to the bottom of the canyon, they saw a red-lipped, white-toothed young boy appear before them.
"Insect Taoist?" someone couldn't help but exclaim.
The young boy smiled slightly: "Hello, the Insect Taoist is my master, and I'm the Insect Servant. My master is inside waiting for you, come with me."
The boy turned and walked inside.
Though many present were unruly individuals, they knew the situation was pressing, so it was best to act compliant for now.
Following behind the Insect Servant, they walked about a hundred meters to a stone gate.
"Master, they have arrived!" the Insect Servant said respectfully.
With a creak, the gate opened, and the voice of the Insect Taoist came from inside: "Come in, I'm quite curious to see what kind of skill level the elites from the Angel World and Divine Realm possess!"
The Insect Servant looked at Ling Feng and the others: "You may enter, but I'll remind you my master's temper is quite irritable, so you'd better be respectful. If you anger him and he decides to feed you to the Void Devouring Insects, there's nothing I can do."
With that, the Insect Servant waved, and a gentle force pushed Ling Feng and the group into the stone gate.
With a creak, the stone gate activated again, shutting all of them inside.
