Chapter 41 Silver Wing Centipede

he blood-sucking mosquito demon actually fused the two magic treasures together, and used them in coordination. 。Lu Xia Tian was also startled. He had never seen treasures that could cooperate with ea...After resting in the valley overnight, the next day, each squad set off from the valley and ventured into the deeper mountains for further exploration.

Lu Xia Tian and his group were also in a hilly area overgrown with weeds. Besides keeping watch, they were searching for any possible spirits that might appear.

A month is neither short nor long. In the adventure team's search, it passed in a flash. Along the way, the team encountered spirit insects and spirit beasts, directly slaying them and scraping away valuable parts from their bodies. Everyone collected some spirit grasses and spirit beast fur. As for spirit cores, they were not common. However, they also encountered several massive groups of demonic beasts, narrowly avoiding them.

The entire team had lost weight from living out in the open, exposed to the elements. Lu Qing’s melon-shaped face was even sharper now.

Wang Yuan waved a large banana leaf like a fan in her hand, and with the other hand tugging at her collar, she would occasionally, intentionally or unintentionally, reveal a charming glimpse of white skin and cleavage.

“This seductress.”

>

Every time this happened, Luocheng would blush, while Wang Yuan just laughed it off with a giggle.

Fan Qing held his whisk, stood at the top of a small hill, and looked around for a long time. After an incense stick burned down, he still found nothing. After a while, Fan Qing came down from the hill with an expressionless face.

Lu Xiaitian was fiddling with a dark green fruit in his hand, called the Luo Yan fruit. It was a first-grade spiritual object from a decade's lifespan, and it didn't have any lethal force. However, when activated by spiritual energy, it could release a plume of black smoke that obscured the caster, making it difficult for the enemy to attack smoothly. Over the past month, he had used his alchemist advantage to refine a considerable amount of pills, coupled with the spiritual herbs he discovered, his harvest was plentiful. Among them, there were dozens of types of spiritual herbs that both Qingdan Palace and Lingxiao Palace requested, but there was still a significant gap from completing the sect mission.

Seeing Fan Qing's gloomy face, Lu Xiaoteng smiled inwardly. He hadn't been able to find any trace of the silver-winged centipede for days, no wonder he was getting impatient.

After several days, Fan Qing's face was filled with excitement as he leaped down from the top of a towering tree.

"Finally found this beast, let's go!"

Soon, the squad scaled a ravine and under an unassuming knoll, they discovered a cave that stood as tall as a man.

The small hillock was much like the other hills, the only difference being a patch of withered and barren land beside it, with no grass growing. There were some fine centipede tracks in front of the cave.

"Such a potent toxicity," Lu Xia Tian exclaimed, "Even the Blood Serum Pill can't cure it."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

"Hehehe, a silver-winged centipede's venom can easily kill a Grandmaster of Qi Refinement. It wouldn't take an hour to be fatal. But I was prepared. This is an antidote specifically for the silver-winged centipede. Taking it before attacking the silver-winged centipede guarantees safety."

After finding the silver-winged centipede's nest, Fan Qing was in high spirits and distributed a detoxification pill to everyone.

"Even an ordinary silver-winged centipede is a second-rank peak demon beast. It's even rarer to have a demon core, and the power it unleashes is no different from a third-rank demon beast. Plus, it has powerful poison. How do we plan on encircling and killing this silver-winged centipede"

Lu Xia Tian asked in a low voice, to be honest, he didn't expect to find this silver-winged centipede. Although the materials from such powerful monsters were valuable, they weren't closely related to his sect's mission. He could make a lot of spirit stones through alchemy anyway.

If Fan Qing couldn't come up with a truly effective method, he wouldn't risk his own life. After staying in Wang Yue City for so long, he was no longer completely unfamiliar with these low-level demon beasts.

“The Silverwing Centipede is a fire-type monster, incredibly strong and capable of short-distance flight. It's more difficult to deal with than the average third-rank monster. Even a cultivator in the late stages of Qi Refinement would struggle against it. Once it returns to its cave, it cannot be besieged, making any victory impossible. Therefore, it must be killed before the Silverwing Centipede returns to its cave.”

Fan Qing had obviously already made plans. He accepted the crowd's anxious words.

He Duzi and Wang Yuan were responsible for delaying its movement. Then, he personally took charge of injuring the Silver Wing Centipede's wings, preventing it from flying short distances. The squad members ambushing near the cave then swarmed it.

"Remember, once we stall the Silver Wing Centipede, everyone immediately use your strongest attacks on its joints. Otherwise, if this beast goes wild, even I won't be able to hold it back. If the ambush fails, with how cunning this creature is, it probably won't leave its lair for a long time, and may even burrow elsewhere to escape. Even without the demon pill, the venom sac, carapace, and fangs on this beast are worth a few hundred spirit stones each. I won't take a single one, they all belong to you. If we find centipede eggs in the cave, that's another fortune."

After assigning the tasks, Fan Qingmu couldn't rest assured and kept giving reminders and incentives.

About two hundred spirit stones, divided among the remaining eight people, each person could get over twenty. And the leader was still Fan Qing. They didn't take on the main attack role, so they took on relatively less risk. Hearing Fan Qing's description, everyone's eyes lit up.

"Master Fan, please rest assured. We're all going into the mountains together. We're like grasshoppers tied to the same rope. How could we possibly not do our best" Wang Ping licked his lips excitedly.

This time, Fan Qing took the biggest risk. Naturally, the team members had no objections to the arrangement for Fan Qing. They dispersed and waited patiently nearby.

About an hour later, a stench of blood filled the air. The nearby hills and tall grass parted on both sides, revealing a centipede with a dark body but a silvery-gray back, sporting a pair of silver fleshy wings. Even just its raised head was as thick as a bucket, its mouth agape, sharp teeth gnashing at the head of a freshly slaughtered wild ox.

Lu Xiaotian gasped, such a huge demon centipede! No wonder even cultivators in the late stage of Qi Refining didn't dare to challenge it. If their group hadn't been carefully prepared and had a planned ambush strategy, if they had encountered this demon centipede in the wild without prepared antidote pills, they would have only been able to flee in desperation.

The silver-winged centipede seemed to realize that the atmosphere around it was off. Demonic beasts' instincts were often more acute than ordinary cultivators. The silver-winged centipede, its movements halted, released the wild ox from its jaws and exhaled a plume of black mist, the stench spreading outwards. The surrounding grass withered at an alarming rate.

Lu Xiaitian's eyelids twitched. The direction of the black qi was exactly where Fan Qing was. This person was also formidable. Even if they had swallowed a detoxifying pill beforehand, this foul stench was unbearable.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

After the venomous mist dissipated, there were no changes. The silver-winged centipede bit into the bison again, raising its head triumphantly and crawling towards the cave. In its perception, no animal had ever been unharmed by its poisonous fumes. This included several encounters with those two-legged, walking creatures over time. It had even eaten a few, finding them quite tasty.

The weeds swayed to either side, and at this moment Lu Xia Tian was able to clearly see the entirety of this silver-winged centipede.

There were nearly a hundred pairs of them lined up. Their thick, barrel-shaped trunks, over two zhang long, seemed to stretch endlessly into the depths of the unknown cave, home to such massive creatures.

“Strike!” At this moment, Fan Qing leaped up from the fallen grass. With a flick of his whisk, which was usually soft and pliable, it suddenly became like a steel needle, flying towards the silver-winged centipede. It swelled to several meters long in an instant, binding the centipede's head tightly.

The silver mantis was suddenly attacked, and its ferocious nature erupted. It shook its head violently, and its pair of sharp teeth bit with all their might. The flexible whisk fibers were broken in an instant, dozens of them severed. Black mist billowed out, and the silvery whisk fibers visibly darkened and corroded at a terrifying speed.

"This fellow has such great strength!" Fan Qing's face changed, and seeing the Silver Wing Centipede about to break free.

At that moment, two figures, one gray and one purple, flashed past. They were He Tuozi and Wang Yuan.

He Tuozi threw out a dozen or so rattan seeds. Under the impetus of spiritual power, a dozen vines grew wildly in the wind, stretching over ten zhang long, firmly binding the Silver-winged Centipede.

Crack....

The silver-winged centipede rolled its body, and its slender legs, sharp as spiritual swords, severed the vines that bound it.

“Flowing Sand Technique!”

"Earth Tremor Technique!"

The silver-winged centipede, on the verge of regaining its freedom, hesitated for a moment, as if trapped in an alluring mire.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Lu Xiaotian, Luo Yuan and others rushed out from their hiding places one after another, displaying spells to attack the silver-winged centipede.

>

"Frostbite!" "Rocket Blast!" "Golden Spear!" "Earth Spike!" "Fireball!" "Log Throw!" "Ground Hammer!"

The silver-winged centipede's physical strength was astonishing. Its two rows of long legs, hard and sharp, were no less than inferior spiritual artifacts. Everyone dared not approach easily, keeping a distance away, they bombarded it with spells. In the blink of an eye, dozens of introductory spells landed on the silver-winged centipede.

Ah,

Though the Silver-Winged Centipede possessed formidable defenses, it was overwhelmed by the sheer intensity of the attacks and staggered. It shrieked in pain as it was wounded, its wings flapping frantically as it tried to break free from the encirclement of the cultivators.

“For this ambush, I have meticulously prepared for half a year. How could I let you, you beast, escape Now, behold my arrow!”

Fan Qing discarded the completely damaged whisk and took out a Xuan Tie-forged bow from his storage bag, along with a gourd containing dozens of silver arrows. Fan Qing immediately drew three arrows, *whoosh whoosh whoosh*, the arrows forming a pin shape in mid-air and directly striking the centipede's fleshy wings.

With a crash! The meatwing was struck by the arrow, and the silver-winged centipede only managed to fly a few feet before its massive, over two-zhang long body crashed to the ground, sending up clouds of dust and grass clippings.

Such a powerful arrow, it must be a high-grade spiritual artifact. Lu Xiaoteng was secretly startled by the astonishing aura emanating from Fan Qing when he released the arrow. No wonder he's a wandering cultivator who frequently appears in the Moonlit Mountains; his methods are endless.ise a ripple before being swallowed whole.The members of the Ye Shi Clan in Chi Yue Desert, as well as other distant observers, were also watching as the strongest batch of people from the spirit worl...
