Chapter 1112: Chapter 1114: Soul_1 Chapter 1112: Chapter 1114: Soul_1 Song Jian looked at the insect soldiers that tumbled out of their eggs, their bodies still covered in mucus, as they struggled to stand and issued a deep, hissing roar.
These insect soldiers, mere level 60 common monsters, should not have posed a significant threat to Song Jian, but he felt an intense sense of danger emanating from them.
A piercing shriek burst forth from the maw of the Titan Insect Mother, and the newly hatched insect soldiers insaneLy charged toward it.
The Titan Insect Mother disregarded the Sword Qi Stone Tower forming above its head and instead opened its ferocious oral apparatus to bite an insect soldier that leaped at it, sucking away relentlessly. Despite convulsing in pain and emitting agonizing screams, the bitten insect soldier seemed to be willing.
Song Jian watched as the Titan Insect Mother's Vitality Points quickly recovered at a visible pace–within moments, the insect soldier in its mouth became a dried-up corpse, which was thrown aside. The Insect Mother's Vitality Points had restored by about 5%.
It should be noted that the Titan Insect Mother had a Vitality Point upper limit of over ten million; 5% of that was roughly several hundred thousand Vitality Points. At that moment, at least fifty to sixty insect soldiers were rushing toward it. If it were allowed to devour all these soldiers, not only would Song Jian's efforts so far have been in vain, but the mother's originally severe injuries would likely fully heal, propelling it straight to the peak state of a level 120 king boss.
Then, unless Song Jian hid inside the Divine Country and waited for the mission to fail, he would have no other choice.
Thinking this, Song Jian raised his hand and let out Gulu the stone golem, then with a thought, the Sword Shadow Clone appeared; three figures charged toward the freshly hatched insect soldiers.
Gulu held its hands across its chest, with countless earth elemental energies converging at its heart. In a short while, a huge rock over three meters in diameter formed.
Gulu roared and hurled the massive rock at the insect soldiers. The rock let out a deep howl as it flew into the air, then suddenly shattered, covering a wide area with countless fist-sized rocks. At least a dozen insect soldiers were pelted to the ground, screaming in pain.
Then, Gulu roared again and slammed its hands fiercely onto the ground. Clusters of stone spikes burst from the earth; each spike impaled one or two insect soldiers that writhed and struggled to free themselves.
A hint of joy appeared on Song Jian's face. Although Gulu was only a level 50 lord-level boss, it handled these level 60 common monsters easily. In an instant, it had stalled at least thirty insect soldiers, and although it did not kill them on the spot, it at least stopped their advance.
The Sword Shadow Clone summoned the Moon Essence Wheel, diving into the swarm of insect soldiers like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, wreaking havoc. Although it inherited only a part of Song Jian's attributes, it was by no means inferior to the level 60 insect soldiers. In a short while, it had slain three insect soldiers and also injured six or seven more, preventing them from continuing to approach the Titan Insect Mother.
Song Jian himself used the Mysterious Moonlight Sword and charged at the insect soldiers. The Titan Insect Mother's tactic was very cunning; its accelerated hatching had consumed a lot of energy, and its eyes showed signs of weariness.
Soon, the swarm of insect soldiers was contained by Song Jian. Even though a few scattered soldiers broke through the defenses and allowed the Titan Insect Mother to regain some Vitality Points, overall, the situation remained within an acceptable range. After killing all the insect soldiers, the Titan Insect Mother's Vitality Points had only recovered by a little over a million, which compared to its tens of millions of Vitality Points, was less than one-tenth.
Boom!
With a loud crash, the Sword Qi Stone Tower above the head of the Titan Insect Mother finally took shape and roared down upon the mother, which revealed a look of despair in its eyes, knowing that in its current state, it had no way to withstand this terrifying attack.
However, just at this moment, a light laughter suddenly rang out from the cave, and a strange figure appeared on a rock about five meters away from the Titan Worm Mother.
This figure looked like a rolling mass of black mist, speaking to the Titan Worm Mother in the Abyssal language, “Imprisoned for two hundred years, have you still not made your decision? If you refuse to submit, you will not only be killed, but your soul will also be devoured. Is this the outcome you hoped for?”
As the black mist began to speak, Song Jian shockingly discovered that everything around him seemed to have frozen; the Sword Qi Stone Tower above the Titan Worm Mother, which was less than a meter away from her, did not move at all, and even the whistling air currents around them had been frozen in place.
Song Jian found that, apart from being able to move his eyes, he had also lost control over his body, like an insect trapped in amber, and even the splinters of stone flying around, the Sword Shadow Clones that had leaped up to strike at the Worm Mother with their swords, and the Stone Golem Gulu who had gathered stones ready to throw, were all motionless.
At this time, the only things that could move in the entire cave were the rolling black mist and the Titan Worm Mother, who had fallen into despair.
The Titan Worm Mother glanced at Song Jian, her eyes filled with anger and malevolence, as if she wished she could immediately rush up and tear Song Jian into a million pieces. To the interrogation of the black mist, she seemed to pay no heed at all, instead twisting her body frantically.
Although the Titan Worm Mother had not lost her ability to move, she was trapped in place by a mysterious force, unable to leave the spot she was in, no matter how wildly she struggled.
“I've given you two hundred years to consider, but it seems time has not calmed you down; instead, it has gradually destroyed your rationality. How are you any different now from those senseless pieces of trash Insect Soldiers?” the rolling black mist said in a more cutting tone, “Such as you are wholly unworthy of joining our master's ranks!”
As it spoke, a pale arm suddenly extended from the mist, and then gently snapped its fingers.
Boom!
The Sword Qi Stone Tower pressed down with an irresistibly massive force, instantly crushing the Titan Worm Mother into a pulp of flesh!
At this moment, the Titan Worm Mother still had fifty to sixty thousand Vitality Points. Although her body was completely shattered, her limbs were still convulsively struggling, indicating that she was not entirely dead yet.
Then, the first layer's door of the Sword Qi Stone Tower opened, releasing a strong suction force, and a semi-transparent Worm Mother's soul was sucked out of her body by this force, seemingly about to enter the Stone Tower.
It was then that Song Jian, watching helplessly, heard the black mist let out a light chuckle; the arm gestured towards the Worm Mother's soul, and the soul, which had been flying towards the Stone Tower, suddenly changed direction, heading towards the black mist instead.
“Since you have lost your senses, I shall have to take your soul back as my duty,” the black mist muttered to itself, grabbing the Worm Mother's soul and stuffing it into the mist, then, the mass of black mist slowly drifted towards Song Jian.
