Worm

Su Xiaolu raised her sword. The flesh worm’s yellow eyes immediately locked onto Su Xiaolu. It opened its mouth and sprayed poison at Su Xiaolu.

Su Xiaolu quickly turned around to dodge.

When the poison landed on the ground, it corroded a huge pit in the ground, burning the sand into a black mess.

Su Xiaolu immediately erected a water wall around her and flew towards the flesh worm.

The venom of the worm seemed to be endless. It spewed out one after another. Not only did it spew out at Su Xiaolu, but it also spewed out at Wang Tianan and the others.

Su Xiaolu blocked most of it, and only a few drops splashed out. Everyone dodged in a sorry state. One person’s elbow was splashed with a drop and he let out a miserable scream. In an instant, the poison corroded a hole in his elbow, and the hole was still expanding along the edge.

It was so fast that it was shocking.

Wang Tianan reacted quickly. He raised his hand and cut off that person’s arm, stopping the poison from spreading.

“Take the men and retreat.”

Su Xiaolu roared. The poison of the worm still landed on her. Wang Tianan and the others had no way to deal with such a demon. They would only die if they sent themselves over. Su Xiaolu did not have the energy to pay attention to them, so she could only let them all retreat.

Wang Tianan looked at Su Xiaolu anxiously. He wanted to help, but he couldn’t. He retreated to a safe place with his men.

The worm no longer had a place to vent its anger and focused on dealing with Su Xiaolu.

Su Xiaolu wanted to circle behind the worm many times, but the worm always followed Su Xiaolu’s figure. The worm’s yellow eyes seemed to have no blind spots, so no matter where Su Xiaolu was, it could adjust its body in time.

Even though its body was heavy, the poison seemed to be bottomless, so Su Xiaolu could not do anything to it for a while.

At this moment, many termites crawled out of the flooded hole. They had pincers on their heads, and they were black. They looked poisonous.

Wang Tianan and the others were also anxious when they saw this. They threw out their torches.

“Hiss, hiss, hiss—”

The worm made a strange sound. The termites seemed to have received an order and began to surge towards Su Xiaolu.

Su Xiaolu formed a wall of water to block it, and the water quickly condensed.

The worm began to spit poison at her.

Su Xiaolu could only reinforce the water wall on her body and wrap herself in layers.

She locked the worm and tried to control it with her mental power.

When her mental strength entered the worm’s sea of consciousness, Su Xiaolu saw something the size of a pigeon egg. Su Xiaolu stabbed it without hesitation.

“Hiss hiss hiss—”

The worm began to twist its body crazily, spitting out the poison like rain.

It landed on Su Xiaolu’s water wall and sizzled.

The worm’s mental strength could not withstand a single blow. If it was pierced by her, it would definitely not survive. This attack was just a last attack before it died.

The worm’s movements became softer and softer. In the end, it fell to the ground and stopped moving.

Su Xiaolu held her sword and cut off the worm’s rice bowl-sized head.

Everything was finally over.

Su Xiaolu heaved a sigh of relief. She also had to train her mental strength. Apart from facing these demons head-on in the future, she had to use her mental strength to shoot hidden arrows.

“Young Master Su, are you alright?”

Wang Tianan and the others came down from above and walked to Su Xiaolu’s side to ask with concern. The ground was corroded by the worm’s poison and there was scorched earth everywhere.

Su Xiaolu shook her head. She was just a little tired.

Looking at the corpse of the big worm, Wang Tianan hammered it. The worm’s slippery soft skin made people feel a little grossed out.

However, they could not pierce through it with knives. This skin was good stuff.

“Young Master Su, this skin is very thick. It’s not bad to make it into armor.”

Wang Tianan said to Su Xiaolu. Such a big one could be made into many pieces.

Su Xiaolu waved her hand. “Take it. During this period of time, the commoners have been disturbed by it. There are also so many families who have lost their loved ones. Use the flesh of this thing as compensation. I’ll go into the cave to take a look and check it so that I can be at ease.”

The cave that could contain such a big worm was not small. Who knew if there were more inside, so they had to go down and take a look.

Moreover, Mantis Shrimp smelled the interface stone from these things. She had to go down and take a look.

With that, Su Xiaolu went down the hole.

Wang Tianan and the others looked at each other.

“Tianan, we met a good person.”

The injured soldier sighed. Although he had lost an arm, he was also glad that he had found the source of the town’s accident and dealt with this monster. Only then could everyone live in peace in the future.

Wang Tianan looked at everyone and said, “Go back to town first. Young Master Su and I will go down.”

He would not cause trouble for Su Xiaolu, but if there was a need, he would definitely risk his life.

The others nodded. The people in the town were still very uneasy. They had to bring this worm corpse back to reassure everyone.

After settling down, Wang Tianan went down the hole.

He thought that the hole would be very small, but after jumping down and sliding for a while, it suddenly opened up.

Light entered the cave. Some places were dark, but because there was light, they could see.

The cave was complicated. There were many paths, and insects crawled past from time to time.

Wang Tianan looked at the footprints and followed them to find Su Xiaolu.

Su Xiaolu had already arrived at the center of the nest. A beam of sunlight shone down here, and a pile of white eggs filled the entire cave. Su Xiaolu’s scalp went numb several times.

...

Under the sunlight, Su Xiaolu saw a withered root that still emitted a faint spiritual energy. Su Xiaolu went over and threw it away.

After opening the soil, there was a string of peanut-like fruits under the root system.

Spiritual energy, abundant spiritual energy. Su Xiaolu picked the small fruits one by one and put them into the Space.

Mantis Shrimp’s voice sounded in her mind. “Xiaolu, Xiaolu, let me out. I smell it. It’s so strong.”

Su Xiaolu released Mantis Shrimp. Mantis Shrimp took a deep breath and shouted, “It smells so good. Xiaolu, there are so many interface stones.”

“Underneath them are all Interface Stones ahhhh—”

From the tiny gap, Mantis Shrimp recognized the interface stone. He was extremely excited.

After Mantis Shrimp pulled away a group of ant eggs, it fell on a rock and screamed in excitement.

Su Xiaolu smiled helplessly. She walked over and touched the stone. When she touched it, there was indeed information about the interface stone in her mind.

She put them into the Space one by one.

She suddenly heard footsteps and stopped.

...

“Ah—” Wang Tianan saw Su Xiaolu’s figure. Seeing that there was no danger, he quickly walked in. As soon as he walked in, he saw that the wall was filled with ant eggs. He was shocked and lost his voice. At this moment, his scalp went numb.

One monster had already made them helpless. If there were so many, not to mention Canger Town, even Raozhou City would not be enough for these monsters to eat.
