Chapter 463 Sword Light Cage (First Update)
Chapter 463: Chapter 463 Sword Light Cage (First Update)
A sliver of sword light swept by.
This threatening insect leg was instantaneously severed.
The enormous insect let out a howl of pain.
But before the severed leg could land, it had already regrown.
Then, the enormous insect, speaking human language, sneered and said, “It’s useless, in this world, I possess an immortal body, you can’t kill me at all!”
Xue An, upon hearing this, simply responded with a cold smile.
“You… also dare to claim to have an immortal body?”
In The Multiverse Realms, indeed there exist such mysterious entities akin to immortal bodies.
But without exception, these beings either require exceedingly profound cultivation levels and stringent conditions or possess rare and scarce bloodlines.
And even though they’re called immortal bodies, they’re in fact just relatively more difficult to kill.
There’s truly nothing that can be immortal.
Upon hearing Xue An’s words, the enormous insect roared in anger, “Arrogant human, I will eat you bit by bit!”
Xue An sighed lightly upon hearing this, “How unoriginal! Next time you rant, could you come up with something new!”
That said, Xue An raised his fist and struck out!
Crack.
The enormous insect hadn’t even had time to react when its entire face was directly caved in by the punch.
Then its whole body exploded with a bang.
Limbs, mixed with the stench of insect blood, sprinkled down.
But in the blink of an eye, they reassembled into a giant insect again.
“I’ve said, I have an immortal… ”
Before it could finish, Xue An soared into the sky and sent a punch crashing down on its head.
“Noisy!”
Crack.
This time, the giant insect was smashed by Xue Ansheng into a pulp of flesh.
Although it revived again after a moment of writhing, there was now a hint of fear in its eyes when it looked at Xue An.
Though it could not die, the sensation of being killed was still unbearable.
Xue An, however, was now intrigued and didn’t give the giant insect any chance to counter.
“Interesting, let’s see how many times you can endure this!”
With that, Sword Qi emerged, enveloping the giant insect entirely within it.
The sounds of flesh being stripped mixed with the giant insect’s agonized screams, leaving everyone present somewhat dumbfounded.
Especially people like Zu Tianle, with some of the more faint-hearted already kneeling on the ground to offer their worship.
For them,
Xue An’s current methods were nearly divine, and he was killing the Insect Tribe that they detested deeply, naturally deserving their reverence.
Xue An paid no attention to these.
He just quietly watched the giant insect covered by sword light.
Killed, revived, killed again, revived again….
In just a short while, the giant insect had been killed hundreds of times.
By now, its revival speed had visibly slowed.
And its form had also significantly reduced in size.
“No….” Fear filled the voice of the giant insect.
It had never imagined that there could be someone so domineering as to slay it so many times.
From within the Insect Race Temple, an irritated voice emerged, “Human, if you retreat now, I might spare you from pursuit!”
Xue An indifferently said, “I’ve said I would annihilate your Insect Tribe, and I will see it done!”
As he spoke, Sword Light flickered in Xue An’s hand, rapidly forming a Giant Sword hundreds of meters long, which then crashed down thunderously.
“Don’t… ” the giant insect cried out in terror.
Being the collective of all the High-Grade Insect Race, it naturally also had the fear of death. Now faced with this deathly Sword Qi, it completely collapsed.
The recently united giant insect instantly split apart, revealing bodies of grasshoppers and other insects, then trying to desperately flee.
But it was too late.
Their speed could never surpass that of the sword.
In an instant, that single sword strike eradicated all the members of the Insect Tribe.
Although their remaining bodies tried to fuse, every time they attempted to do so, a flash of Sword Qi would flicker, slicing them back into nothing but dust.
It clearly wasn’t possible anymore.
Xue An glanced at An Qing.
An Qing, as if blessed with divine intuition, raised her hand, calling out, “Big fella!”
Following her words, the blood and flesh of the Insect Tribe on the ground began to wriggle, quickly forming a giant made of blood and flesh.
An Qing’s eyes shone with joy, her smile revealing that this giant was many times more formidable than the previous ones.
At that moment, Xue An lifted his gaze towards the Insect Race Temple.
The Insect Queen had undoubtedly seen everything that had just happened, but she gave no sign, not even her presence could be felt.
Xue An said indifferently, “You’re not willing to come out?”
As he spoke, he raised his hand and forcefully swung it down.
Crack.
A heaven-sundering, earth-shattering beam of Sword Qi cut the Insect Race Temple in half.
But the inside was empty, devoid of anything.
Xue An frowned slightly, unfolded his Divine Sense, then let out a cold smile, “You still want to escape now? Too bad, it’s too late!”
Having said that, Xue An leaped into the air, took a deep breath, and called out loudly, “Rise for me… rise!”
Following his command, the ground shook violently.
Zu Tianle and the others watched in horror as the entire Insect Race’s Main City began to slowly rise upward.
It was Xue An using his Cultivation Level to forcibly pluck this expanse of land out.
Moments later, the entire Insect Race’s Main City had risen to midair, and then Xue An drew a Talisman Spell in the void.
“Seal!”
The Talisman Spell suddenly emitted a dazzling bright light, followed by a pitiful scream from beneath the earth.
Then the ground cracked open, and a petite silhouette flew out from it, transforming into a beam of light attempting to flee.
With a casual wave of his hand, Xue An enveloped the figure in hundreds of intersecting sword lights, trapping her within.
Only then did Xue An say with indifference, “Do you think you can still run? Insect Queen.”
With those words, everyone, including An Qing, gazed curiously at the trapped Insect Queen.
But upon seeing her, all were involuntarily taken aback.
They saw within the Sword Light Cage a little girl, no more than eleven or twelve years old, adorably carved with teary eyes, looking so soft and frail that one couldn’t help but feel a protective urge.
“My lord, I know my mistakes!” said the girl in a tender voice to Xue An.
Her voice was unreasonably sweet.
Zu Tianle and others wore looks of infatuation.
This little girl was simply too beautiful, and her appearance suggested she was naive to the ways of the world.
Perhaps everything she did was just an instinctive act, Zu Tianle and his group thought.
But Xue An slightly raised an eyebrow, looking at the girl with a faint, noncommittal smile.
“Know your mistake? What mistake do you acknowledge?”
“I shouldn’t have sent the Insect Tribe to the mortal world, nor should I have allowed my subordinates to torture the Human Clan. But I’ve been asleep in the Divine Temple all these years, and there are many things I can’t control. I beg for your insight!” The Insect Queen sounded very aggrieved.
Xue An nodded slightly, “So, you’re saying none of this is related to you?”
“My lord, I dare not say that, but please spare my life considering I truly haven’t committed any wrongdoings personally! I am willing to serve you…”
Xue An shook his head, “Serving me is not necessary! As for sparing you…”
The look of joy had just appeared on the Insect Queen’s face when Xue An tightened his hand, and the Sword Light Cage abruptly shrank together.
The crisscrossed Sword Qi instantly minced the little girl’s body.
Blood splattered everywhere.
A look of shock and rage appeared on the girl’s face, “Why do you still want to kill me?”
Xue An stood with his hands behind his back and said indifferently, “What a joke, did you really think acting cute could save your life?”
