Chapter 7: Thousand-legged Worm

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

When Sun Ming heard Ning Lanqing’s words, he immediately choked hard, so he stopped acting. Flames covered his entire body, and the flaming ape let out a warning squeak on his shoulder.

“I’m not afraid. Our Sun family has never been cowards! I was just afraid that Student Fang Xuan wouldn’t be able to protect himself and would be injured if we really fought.”

On the other hand, Fang Xuan watched this scene coldly from the side.

Pretend, continue pretending.

This kid couldn’t have convinced him, right?

If there was a Best Actor Award in this world, this guy would be born with an S-level acting talent.

Despite his thoughts, Fang Xuan did not remain idle. Instead, he silently closed his eyes and activated his perception talent.

His Eye of Reconnaissance had a similar effect, but it was not convenient to directly reveal it here.

The Thousand-legged Worm did not appear for a long time, but Fang Xuan could vaguely sense a sinister aura lingering near the three of them, filled with killing intent.

“Could it be that this fellow is afraid of Junior Sister Ning and me? He’s really a coward.”

The three of them were enveloped by Ning Lanqing’s water vapor. The fog within a radius of dozens of meters was squeezed out, but there was still no sign of the Thousand-legged Worm.

“It hasn’t left yet. I think it’s waiting for the water vapor to disappear and rely on the fog to ambush us. This guy actually has some intelligence of its own.”

Fang Xuan said in a deep voice. He had indeed never seen a magical beast in this world, but he still had basic common sense.

The intelligence of a magical beast was not only related to its grade, but also to its level of evolution.

The degree of evolution was equivalent to the purity of the bloodline, which determined the upper limit of a magical beast’s cultivation.

The purer the bloodline of a Magical Beast, the greater the room for improvement. On the contrary, if the branches of a Magical Beast became more and more varied over the past tens of thousands of years, it would be difficult for them to reach the highest point in their lives.

This was similar to the talent rating of humans.

Fang Xuan opened his eyes and saw that Ning Lanqing’s forehead had already started to sweat slightly, and the water barrier had also started to shrink inward.

“Sorry, I might—”

Before Ning Lanqing could finish, Fang Xuan placed his hand on her shoulder.

“Don’t force yourself. We’re still here.”

Ning Lanqing looked at Fang Xuan’s eyes and couldn’t help but feel a sense of security.

She nodded, and the water barrier quickly tightened.

When Sun Ming saw this scene, his entire face turned red.

He gritted his teeth and waved his hand to throw a punch into the depths of the fog.

“Damn it, come out and fight me one-on-one!”

As if in response to his words, Fang Xuan’s heart was suddenly filled with vigilance.

“Watch out, it’s coming!”

This angry roar mixed with the rustling sounds on the ground, and a black shadow as thick as a forearm suddenly attacked the three of them. Sun Ming seemed to be really angry and punched the attacker fiercely, causing the green liquid to spread out. The insect in front of him twisted a few times and died.

The bug was the same color as his fog. There were rows of red sharp claws beside it, looking like a mutated centipede.

Fang Xuan frowned. Were all the magical beasts on this continent so ugly?

Before he could think too much, another Thousand-legged Worm had already rushed in front of him.

His gaze was like a torch. Just as he was about to attack, a blue light shone down, and the insect instantly exploded into powder, not even leaving a trace behind.

“Be careful, these are just ordinary Thousand-legged Worms. They’re only Level 1 demonic creatures. There’s probably a Thousand-legged Worm King controlling them in this dense forest. Let’s hurry and find the exit.”

Ning Lanqing had already recovered from her previous state. Her hands were covered with a layer of blue energy that looked like gloves as she ran forward quickly.

Sun Ming and Fang Xuan split into two groups and followed behind. However, Ning Lanqing’s martial strength was too high. The Thousand-legged Worms that pounced over exploded one after another as if they were delivering their heads to him. Most of them died without a complete corpse.

Fang Xuan silently gulped. This woman… was not to be trifled with.

Suddenly, Ning Lanqing stopped. Having learned his lesson, Fang Xuan immediately stopped as well. On the other hand, Sun Ming couldn’t stop in time and fell to the ground.

The two of them looked at each other and said in unison, “It’s poisonous.”

From the beginning, all the Thousand-legged Worms that had sent themselves to their deaths would bring an even more viscous poisonous fog.

The poisonous fog was a faint purple color. Almost no one noticed it when it blended into the smoke around the three of them. It was not difficult to notice the faint purple smoke in the air even if they stopped and observed.

Along the way, Sun Ming and Ning Lanqing were obviously a little dizzy, especially with the consumption of energy, as if the thick fog would devour energy.

Only Fang Xuan, who possessed the bloodline of the ancient Insect Clan, did not feel the slightest bit of discomfort. He already had a body that was immune to all poisons. This kind of low-level poison was nothing to him.

“Now… what should we do?”

Sun Ming was a little helpless. None of the three of them had a Healing Element, let alone detoxification.

Ning Lanqing gritted her teeth and proposed a plan to maintain the water barrier until they finally rushed out of the dense forest, but it was immediately rejected by Fang Xuan.

The few of them had been running in the fog for an unknown period of time. They did not know when it would end.

Moreover, if the energy in Ning Lanqing’s body was squandered, it would be equivalent to resisting the poisonous fog with the body of a mortal. It was possible that it would consume his vitality.

Sun Ming frowned. “You’re just spouting nonsense. Do you have any other ideas?”

Fang Xuan sneered.

“Why? Does Young Master Sun have a better way to break out of this situation? Or are you prepared to sacrifice Ning Lanqing to fulfill your own wish?”

When Sun Ming heard this, his mouth opened wide, but he couldn’t say anything. Ning Lanqing’s disgust for the latter became even more obvious. Fang Xuan ignored him and summoned the ant on the spot.

“Go on.”

As soon as he shouted, the ant immediately flew down and hid in the smoke.

When the smoke met the ants, it was like a mouse meeting a cat. It instantly melted crazily.

Under the surprised gazes of the other two, the purple smoke and the white smoke quickly disappeared at the same time. The white smoke surrounded them again and then disappeared again… Seeing that the purple smoke had almost been cleared, Fang Xuan quickly called the ant back.

He knew that if this continued, the ants would definitely devour all the fog in the entire forest. At that time, all the students might pass the level brainlessly.

More importantly, his ability would be inexplicably doubted. That was not what he wanted to see.

With a thought, he recalled the Metal-eating Ants. The corrosive feeling on Ning Lanqing and Sun Ming’s bodies also slowly disappeared.

Ning Lanqing was pleasantly surprised and quickly gave Fang Xuan a thumbs up. Sun Ming, on the other hand, curled his lips indignantly.

It was just a blind cat meeting a dead rat. This guy had managed to pretend again.

However, given the current situation, he couldn’t say it out loud. This time, he had really suffered a double loss. He wanted to trick him and ended up benefiting Fang Xuan instead. The gains didn’t make up for the losses.
