Chapter 498 - Insect Race Invasion (1/2)

Insect race!

In just the blink of an eye, there were over 10,000 insect Qi Practitioners swarming out of the ice palace. They flew past the sides of that mother insect god and formed patches of clouds in the sky, moving away in all directions!

While on the ground, there were also many insect Qi Practitioners swarming into the Frozen Ancient Capital!

The Bai Zhe god's scalp tingled. Last year, when he was saved by Zhong Yue, he learned of the ice palace's uses as the seal to prevent the insect race's invasion.

Yet, it had only been a year's time before the seal became broken!

With the insect Qi Practitioners swarming out, it meant that Lord Bai's seal that barred the dimensional tunnel between insect planet and Ancestral Star was broken by the insect race!

From now onward, there would be no more obstruction between the insect planet and Ancestral Star!

"DIE!" The Bai Zhe god roared in anger. Totem patterns weaved into a dense net and surrounded the whole ice palace. These nets were like spider webs; the insect race would be stuck upon coming into contact with it and would burn into ashes right after.

With just the drop of a hat, thousands of insect Qi Practitioners were already killed by the totem pattern net.

Then, the Bai Zhe god instantly projected his voice across the whole city. Immediately, the whole city plunged into chaos and disorder, but Bai Zhenhuang, Bai Zhenbei, and the other experts reacted proficiently soon enough. They ordered the elders to bring the clansmen to safety while the Qi Practitioners of Inner Core level and above would go out and eliminate the insects!

"Jeje, what a prize here, a delicious fresh god!"

In front of the ice palace, the mother insect god was smirking smugly. Suddenly, she opened her mouth and sucked in a deep breath of air. Unlike the other races that opened up and down, her mouth opened in four directions like flower petals. With long and sharp teeth on every petal!

The totem pattern net was sucked into her mouth, she chomped on the net along with the insects stuck on it, swallowing them into her stomach!

The mother insect god ate the totem pattern net and broke the Bai Zhe god's skill. Her eight legs strode forward while she was chortling as she said, "We insects are created to kill the celestials and demons! My delicious food, be good and come into my mouth!"

The Bai Zhe god slightly crouched his lamb legs and dashed out forward. The two gods clashed together and ravaged the buildings around. The insect race's skills were incredibly bizarre; most of them were targeted more toward the Yuan Shen and soul instead of the physical body. This was something even the scholarly Bai Zhe god had never seen before, causing him to harden his face and conserve his attacks in fear of being struck badly.

The Bai Zhe Clan's strongest forte was their knowledge. They had records of nearly every race's skills and researched on them. Most of the time, the Bai Zhe disciples would be striking on the weaknesses of their opponent's skills and win battles.

However, the insect race was not in their research list, there were little to no records on the insect race's skills. Thus, the Bai Zhe god was fighting conservatively against the mother insect god.

While in the Frozen Ancient Capital, the Bai Zhe Qi Practitioners were warring with the insect race. Pained cries and curses could be heard everywhere. Great skills, skills, array formation and soul weapons were all over the place.

A Heavenly Dharma Bai Zhe Qi Practitioner had just been through a bloody battle with a Heavenly Dharma insect Qi Practitioner. He managed to deliver the final blow on the insect Qi Practitioner, and as soon as the opponent was killed, he heaved a breath of relief. And in that single second of relaxation, the Heavenly Dharma insect Qi Practitioner's corpse exploded into countless tiny little bugs that swarmed into his body.

Cries of fear and terror resounded through the sky. The Bai Zhe Heavenly Dharma Qi Practitioner's skin could be seen rippling as the bugs moved underneath the flesh. In an instant, the bugs left his body in all domains and an empty bag of skin was all that remained on the ground.

His Yuan Shen, mortal body, bones, and even secret realms were devoured by the little bugs, leaving only his skin.

Some of the insect Qi Practitioners who flew in the sky pounced down on the Bai Zhe Clan disciples and devoured their food.

There was also the insect Qi Practitioners who had the appearance of silkworms with three pairs of wings. They fluttered in the wind like lighting and swarmed in groups. They could kill dozens of Bai Zhe Qi Practitioners in just the matter of seconds.

"Division of Wind Whisperers, inform all of the other races that the insect race has arrived and plead them for reinforcements!" Bai Zhenhuang was entangled in the center of the battlefield and he shouted loudly. He could kill dozens of insect Qi Practitioners with each swing of a hand, but the insects were never-ending swarming at him.

The Division of Wind Whisperers was located at one of the surviving buildings. There were many senior cultivators dressed in white robes and as soon as they heard Bai Zhenhuang, they cast out a totem pillar each. Each of the totem pillars were linked to a race, East Barren monster race, Great Wilderness human race, West Barren celestial race, South Barren Zhong Li Celestial Race, the oceanic dragon race, and even the overseas demon race!

The insect race was the common enemy of every other race. Even the insect race's progenitor, the fiendish demon race, was a long-standing nemesis to the insect race!

The Bai Zhe Clan was, after all, a powerful race that dominated the North Barren for ages. Although they had fewer clansmen, their prowess was not weak. Soon, the insect Qi Practitioners in the city were killed and the battlefield was slowly pressed toward the ice palace.

In the ice palace, there were still insects swarming out unceasingly. But if they could press the battle to the ice palace, the Bai Zhe Clan would be able to stop the insect race from entering the Ancestral Star.

…

"Little baby Gu Hongzi, where are you~?" In the snowy mountains of the northernmost region. A beautiful woman was looming in and out the mountains like an ice fairy. It was now the polar-night period and for the next half a year's time or so, darkness would not falter from the sky and the coldness would grow stronger with time. But this beautiful woman barely any pieces on clothes on her body, with only a piece of pink muslin around her.

"Little baby Gu Hongzi, do you think you can run away from mother insect? Jeje, how rare is it, for a little baby like you to crawl away from mother for such a long time…." Suddenly, the beautiful woman sensed something, and her eyes brightened up. Immediately, she halted on the ground and looked toward the North Barren.
