69: Chapter 068 Mass Insect Battle!_1 69: Chapter 068 Mass Insect Battle!_1 Spiritual Sense is a form of perception that cultivators and ancient martial artists possess before they develop spiritual awareness.
This sense is only activated when one reaches the Xiantian Realm.
Though it is not as abnormal as spiritual awareness, which can easily survey all around, this sense can detect others’ prying and killing intent.
It is a decent perceptual ability, and spiritual awareness is an evolution of this sense.
Mingyu was shocked to the core.
Those capable of launching soul attacks would not just be martial artists.
In Mingyu’s knowledge, only cultivators, ghost cultivators and certain anomalies have the ability to use soul attack techniques.
But in this mundane world, can one simply encounter a cultivator?
Mingyu somewhat found it hard to believe.
As far as she knew, very few cultivators came to the mundane world.
And ghost cultivators who haven’t refined their ghost bodies to reach the realm of ghost generals would neither dare nor be capable of attacking martial artists.
After all, martial artists possess robust vitality, and any average ghost cultivator would avoid them like the plague.
What’s more, Mingyu was a bona fide cultivator of the Xiantian Realm!
Since Mingyu could ascertain that neither a cultivator nor a ghost cultivator launched the soul attack on her, that left only those peculiar beings with special abilities.
With these thoughts in mind, Mingyu forcefully suppressed the piercing pain from her soul, extended her spiritual sense and started to probe in the direction of the attacker.
Indeed, Mingyu quickly found a clue!
So it’s you who have been spying on me all this time.
Well, you are doomed now.” Mingyu found four [Soul-Devouring Bugs] in the room and recalled the feeling of being watched during her journey, causing her to fume with anger.
She imbued her right hand with Innate True Qi and with the speed of Swift Thunder, she aimed at a Black Soul-Eating Bug on the sofa.
This Level 0 Soul-Devouring Bug was squashed by Mingyu in an instant.
The other three Soul-Devouring Bugs had also sensed their comrade’s death.
Their antennas were in a constant state of trembling, as if exchanging some information.
Consequently, they turned into three streaks of black lightning dashing towards Mingyu from three different directions at lightning speed while releasing a [Soul Attack Thorn].
They aimed to pierce Mingyu’s body with their tail pincers.
If they were up against some lowly hoodlums, these Level 0 [Soul Devouring Bugs] would gain an upper hand.
However, this time they are facing a cultivator in the Xiantian Realm.
Their gyro accelerating speed, which they were so proud of, was negligible in the eyes of Mingyu.
Mingyu covered her brain with Innate True Qi and simultaneously flicked her right hand three times in the air.
Instantly, the three Level 0 [Soul-Devouring Bugs] were knocked down once again.
Only then did Mingyu’s soul feel somewhat better.
“What kind of creatures are these bugs?
They can actually release soul attacks?” Mingyu frowned as she squatted down and picked up a dead [Soul-Devouring Bug] and examined it carefully.
This was a black worm, looking very similar to a [Seven-Star Worm], but its back wasn’t red; it was pitch-black.
It had two long antennas in its mouth similar to a centipede and its tail seemed to conceal a fine, dark pin-like appendage that seemed quite toxic.
Mingyu carefully examined the four bug corpses and thought hard.
Even though she didn’t recognize what this creature was, it had sparked much thought in her.
These bugs can release soul attack techniques, which, despite being weak, still made them impressive.
If they could be successfully raised, they might prove to be quite helpful.
“What a pity!” Mingyu shook her head slightly.
These four special bugs were already dead.
Otherwise, she would be inclined to capture a couple of them to nurture with care.
Turning to look at Dongfang Linglong on the sofa, Mingyu’s gaze flickered and she mused, “These four strange bugs seem to have been protecting this policewoman, otherwise they would not have been following me and attacking me.
If someone is able to mobilize these mysterious bugs to protect her, this policewoman’s background must not be simple.
Hopefully, she is not involved with the world of cultivation…”
With these thoughts in mind, Mingyu’s expression subtly changed.
If this policewoman in front of her did have a significant background, Mingyu might have stirred up a great deal of trouble for herself.
Throwing a doubtful glance at Dongfang Linglong, now completely lost in boundless desire, Mingyu shook her head and murmured, “This woman is unlikely to be related to the cultivation sects.
If she was, with her qualifications, she would have started her cultivation journey long ago.”
Comprehending this, Mingyu walked towards Dongfang Linglong with a sly smile, his eyes sweeping appreciatively over her body.
At this point, Dongfang Linglong was completely overwhelmed by her own desires – the perfect moment for him to suck her vitality to nourish his own.
Mingyu was confident that after tonight, he would certainly break through to the middle Innate stage, or even the late Innate stage.
“Ha ha, with the [Harmony Yin-Yang Technique], I, Mingyu, will definitely become the youngest Foundation Establishment expert, and the youngest Core Formation realm expert…” Mingyu laughed triumphantly while pointing towards Dongfang Linglong’s body, preparing to remove some restrictions on her body again and give her some mobility.
Otherwise, even with his aggressive advances, there would be no “fun” involved.
“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh…” Just as Mingyu was about to remove the restrictions on Dongfang Linglong’s body, several Soul Attack Thorns hurled towards him once again.
This time, it was not just four Soul Attack Thorns, but dozens or even hundreds of them.
Mingyu’s face drastically changed, and he swiftly turned his head only to discover another wave of dozens of black insects in the living room.
More terrifying was the fact that not only the living room, but also the kitchen and other rooms were swarmed with these black bugs.
Like bolts of black lightning, they charged at him, launching wave after wave of Soul Attacks.
“Damn it, who has the ability to cultivate so many bugs?
Is it the inheritors of the Witch Sect?
Or people from the Nine Li Miao Tribe?
All I did was find a great Furnace Cauldron; why am I so lucky that I bumped into these guys?” Mingyu was both angry and puzzled.
At this point, he suspected that he had somehow offended these mysterious figures.
Mingyu did his best to protect his brain with his Innate True Qi, while his hands began to fly with rapid movement.
In a brief moment, he had killed a dozen Soul-Devouring Bugs.
However, to his horror and shock, he realized that more and more mysterious black bugs were flooding into the room, and the Soul Attacks he was facing were coming more and more frequently.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
Another batch of Soul-Devouring Bugs barged into the room.
This batch, however, only had over twenty bugs, but they were Level 1 Soul-Devouring Bugs.
They were even stronger.
“Swoosh…, Swoosh…, Swoosh…”
These twenty or so stronger Soul-Devouring Bugs also launched their attacks on Mingyu.
Their Soul Attacks were even more potent, and the venom in their stingers was even more intense.
Mingyu was quickly surrounded by countless Soul-Devouring Bugs.
In the room, a large number of Level 0 Soul-Devouring Bugs rushed towards Mingyu from all directions.
Previously, the bugs had been using their Soul Attack Thorns, but now, they started to use their highly toxic stingers!
Under the cover of the Level 0 Soul-Devouring Bugs, the twenty or so Level 1 Soul-Devouring Bugs began to launch sneak attacks on Mingyu.
“Splatter, splatter…”
After Mingyu relentlessly shot down over ten Soul-Devouring Bugs, two Level 1 Soul-Devouring Bugs successively stung Mingyu in the neck and the back of his hand with their stingers.
“Ah…” Mingyu screamed out in pain as he horrifyingly discovered that his body was beginning to go numb.
He had been poisoned!
Mingyu’s face wildly changed with shock!
