C26 Injury

"Is that so? Next, let's see if this second grade broken sword of mine can break through your defense. Double Combo! " Finished speaking, Li Ming turned his sword and pierced straight towards the two Fire Silkworms. The two Fire Silkworms saw that Li Ming's sword force had changed, so they disapproved, since Li Ming's previous two attacks were blocked by their defense, thus, they naturally felt that Li Ming's attack this time round was unable to break through their defense. However, this time, they had obviously miscalculated.

"Quick, dodge!" Just as Li Ming's attack was about to hit the Fire Silkworm in front, the Fire Silkworm behind the Fire Silkworm said loudly.

Hearing his companion's reminder, although the Fire Worm wanted to dodge in its heart, Li Ming's fast sword technique was still unable to dodge the Fire Worm.

The Fire Silkworm that was unable to dodge, at this critical moment, a fiery red light shot out from its tiny mouth, striking Li Ming's sharp sword. However, as the Fire Silkworm was rushing to shoot out the fiery red light, it was not very powerful, but to parry Li Ming's sword and disappear, the remaining sword force still struck the Fire Silkworm's body. However, under the strong defense of the silkworm, only a small hole was left.

"Human, I admit that you have completely angered me. The next step is the real fight." As soon as the injured Fire Silkworm finished its sentence, its body disappeared from Li Ming's sight, while the other Fire Silkworm also disappeared.

's heart sank when he saw the two fire silkworms that had disappeared. He immediately searched for the two disappearing fire silkworms in his Sensory Perception of a Fighter. But before Li Ming could find the bodies of the two Fire Silkworm, the Fire Silkworm hiding in the darkness took the initiative to attack. Two fiery red rays of light shot over from Li Ming's left and right.

Seeing the two rays of light, Li Ming anxiously used his microstep to quickly dodge.

After barely avoiding the two beams of light, Li Ming, who had yet to stabilize himself in another place, discovered another two beams of light shooting towards his current location.

Li Ming, who had once again dodged two beams of light, rapidly activated his microstep to dodge another two beams of light. Because, Li Ming discovered that from the place he was standing at, there were another two rays of light flying over.

Time slowly passed as Li Ming and the Fire Silkworm attacked and dodged each other. During this period of time, Li Ming could be said to be extremely depressed. Every time Li Ming wasn't able to stand steadily on his feet, two rays of fiery red light would shoot towards him. Furthermore, every single ray of light was equivalent to an early stage Core Formation expert 's full force attack, causing Li Ming to be unable to take them head-on. He could only use his microstep to dodge. It could only be the fire silkworm attacking Li Ming, which meant that Li Ming was still unable to attack the two fire silkworms in the dark.

In this period of time, a third of the True Qi in Li Ming's Dantian had already been used up. Originally, Li Ming's microstep would not consume True Qi when he was dodging, but the restriction laid by the Fire Silkworm was able to block the flow of the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth in this area. This resulted in Li Ming being unable to replenish the True Qi that he had used up in time. However, Li Ming realized that the light emitted by the two Fire Silkworms was not weakening in the slightest.

"It seems like the fire silkworm has some methods to quickly replenish the demonic elemental energy these two times! It's not good for me to continue wasting time like this! However, the more I fight with the hidden rats, the more depressed I get. "

"I can't continue to hide like this. The wind of the Gale Sword Technique blows like the clouds." Li Ming who had just stopped and barely dodged another attack, decided not to dodge anymore. He wanted to try and see if he could use the Gale Sword Technique to force the two fire silkworms out. Compared to its power, Li Ming actually resembled using the Thirteen Lifesteal Swords's five swords more. However, the Thirteen Lifesteal Swords was unable to carry out large-scale attacks, so Li Ming could only use the Gale Sword Technique.

Li Ming's tornado caused the surrounding air to turn into a whirlpool, and continued to pull at the surrounding air, continuously expanding the scope of the whirlpool. Li Ming then stood in the center of the whirlpool and used the Sensory Perception of a Fighter to carefully observe his surroundings for any movements.

Just as the tornado was about to disappear, Li Ming suddenly discovered a trace of movement in the air dozens of meters to his left.

"Found it." Seeing the air that fluctuated, Li Ming immediately activated his microstep and quickly ran towards the air.

Li Ming raised his left hand into the air and used seven injury fist to punch the air that was vibrating, only to see a small, fiery red object being struck out by Li Ming's fist.

Looking at the fire silkworm that he had shot out, Li Ming quickly raised his right hand and used the Thirteen Lifesteal Swords's five swords to pierce into the fire silkworm's body.

Because the Fire Worm was already injured by Li Ming's seven injury fist, it was unable to dodge. It could only watch as the broken sword in its eyes pierced its own body, and then, it lost consciousness.

Seeing his companion being killed by Li Ming, the other hidden fireworm let out a miserable cry, and sent another, more powerful ray of light towards Li Ming!

Li Ming could feel the immense power of the ray of light from within his Sensory Perception of a Fighter. As he had just killed the fire silkworm earlier, he was unable to quickly dodge the light, and could only use his left hand to continuously transfer the monoyang finger and strike the fiery red light that was shooting at him. He wanted to weaken the power of this ray of light.

Although the fiery red light that was struck a few times by Li Ming's monoyang finger had reduced in power, it still struck Li Ming's right chest. Li Ming who was hit fell to the ground, while the Fire Silkworm that was releasing such a powerful light also fell from the darkness.

Lying on the ground, Li Ming struggled to retrieve two Small Revitalizing Pellets from the storage bag and stuffed them into his own mouth. He slowly activated the taiji method to repair his right chest that had been hit by the fire silkworm.

Lying on the ground, Zhuge Yun saw that Li Ming had first killed one fire silkworm, and then, he was hit by another fire silkworm, and this fire silkworm fell onto the ground after Li Ming.

Sensing the dramatic scene in front of him, Zhuge Yun could only reply speechlessly.

At this time, Zhuge Yun slowly stood up. He first walked to the side of the Fire Worm that fell to the ground, and felt that the Fire Worm was already dead. Zhuge Yun then walked to Li Ming's side.

As for Li Ming, who was on the ground, although he was heavily injured, the Sensory Perception of a Fighter had not closed its eyes. Sensing that Zhuge Yun, who was initially lying on the ground, was walking towards him, Li Ming started to circulate his little Innate Qi. Although Li Ming still believed in Zhuge Yun quite a bit, no one could guarantee that Zhuge Yun wouldn't do something that was equivalent to having the Core Formation Cultivator suffer a serious injury. Therefore, the necessary precautions were necessary.

Zhuge Yun, who was beside Li Ming, saw him lying on the ground and realized that he was not dead yet. However, he discovered that Li Ming's eyes were still closed the entire time, and only thought that Li Ming had fainted due to heavy injuries.

Originally, Zhuge Yun had planned to take Li Ming's storage bag away and leave this place if Li Ming died. But now, when Zhuge Yun realized that Li Ming was still alive, he was not doing anything else.

Right now, looking at the injured Li Ming, Zhuge Yun didn't know how to wake Li Ming up. He could only choose the most direct method — — Let Li Ming wake up. She then found a place to sit down.

As for Li Ming, who was lying on the ground, he realised that Zhuge Yun did not do anything to make his feel good, and heaved a sigh of relief. Although Li Ming was not afraid of Zhuge Yun killing her for money, after interacting with Zhuge Yun for a period of time, Li Ming did not want to personally kill her either. Now, as he felt Zhuge Yun sitting at his side, Li Ming began to recuperate. This was the territory of the fire silkworm. Although the fire silkworm was now dead, there was a saying that was not — — even though the tiger was dead, its power was still there. Therefore, it was still very safe here.

As Li Ming was healing his injuries, six hours slowly passed by. Under the miraculous effects of the Small Revitalizing Pellet, the wound on Li Ming's right chest more or less recovered. Fortunately, the Fire Silkworm had only injured Li Ming's right chest. Although Li Ming was no longer able to continue fighting, he was able to recover and heal his injuries.

Since he could sit up, there was no need for him to lie on the ground. After that, Li Ming slowly sat up.

Zhuge Yun who was seated at the side saw Li Ming who had sat up, and immediately ran in front of him, saying with concern: "Senior, you have woken up, I wonder how much senior is recovering?"

"Thank you for your concern. My injuries have almost healed."

"Since senior's injuries are almost healed, should we continue to advance forward?"

"NO!" "Right now, I am still unable to engage in an intense battle, but this is the territory of the fire silkworm, and now that the fire silkworm is dead, it can be said that this place can be said to be extremely safe. So, I plan to recover my injuries here first before harvesting the Scarlet Fruit." Li Ming did not plan to immediately pluck the Scarlet Fruit, but planned to first recover from his injuries, and then pluck the Scarlet Fruit. After all, it was not so easy to pluck the Scarlet Fruit, and there was at least one late stage two demon beast there.

"Since Senior has decided, I will follow Senior's arrangements." Zhuge Yun did not want to immediately go and pick the Scarlet Fruit now either. Zhuge Yun knew, with his cultivation, he would not be able to survive in this place without Li Ming's protection. And now, Li Ming was also injured, so he was unable to provide protection. However, Zhuge Yun knew that he couldn't make a decision, which was why he asked Li Ming. And hearing Li Ming's answer, Zhuge Yun just so happened to agree smoothly.

"Since you have no objections, then let's do it! Now that I have recovered from my injuries, you can do as you please! " Hearing that Zhuge Yun had no objections to his words, Li Ming decided to first settle his injuries.

And on the opposite side from Li Ming and the other two, Gou Di and his group were looking for traces of Li Ming and Yue Yang.

"We've already been in here for so long, why haven't we seen any trace of Zhuge Yun? Fellow Daoist Gou, could it be that your information is incorrect?" One of the mid stage Foundation Establishment old man said to Gou Di who was leading the way.

"Don't worry Dao Friend Qiao, there is no mistake with my information. The reason why we can't find any trace of Zhuge Yun right now is probably because we found the wrong direction. Let's change our direction and continue searching!" The person leading the way said to the old cultivator casually.

This old cultivator's name was Qiao Fang. He was a rogue cultivator and had participated in the encirclement to kill Zhuge Yu.

"Since Fellow Gou is so confident, then this old man will continue to follow you in your search!"

"That's good! I believe that Dao Friend Qiao must also be extremely interested in that thing on Zhuge Yun's body! "

"Of course, if not, I would not have let go of what I am doing and come over to surround and kill Zhuge Yun."

"Since that's the case, let's hurry up and look for Zhuge Yun and the others! This time, we cannot let Zhuge Yun escape. "

"Alright, let's continue searching!"

Hearing the conversation between the two Foundation Cultivator s, no one else made a sound, because they knew that they did not have much of a say in front of the two Foundation Cultivator s.

The sky in the swamp was especially dark, and the black night was especially dark for the poisonous demonic beasts. At night, other than the cultivators that were forced into a corner, there were very few cultivators that would spend the night in the swamp.

As Li Ming and Zhuge Yun were in the Fiery Silkworm's territory, no demon beasts came to disturb them. As for Gou Di's group, they had left the marshland long before nightfall.

The next morning, Li Ming did not find any Spirit Demon Cores on the corpses of the two fire silkworms. However, he found two fiery-red rocks. According to Zhuge Yun, the Fire Worm would only form a Spirit Demon Core in its body after it matured, but the two fiery-red rocks that Li Ming found were fire crystal s. They were a type of crystal that could quickly replenish the Fire Worm demonic elemental energy; Yesterday, when the fire silkworm was fighting with Li Ming, the demonic elemental energy did not consume much energy because the fire silkworm, in battle, was quickly recovering the energy consumed by the demonic elemental energy in its body.

The reason why the Fire Worm Tribe died after emitting that powerful ray of light yesterday was also because of the fire crystal. Because the Fire Worm had absorbed the fire crystal's energy too quickly in an instant, its body had been destroyed by the energy, thus, after releasing that attack, the Fire Worm had died.

In the past night, Li Ming's injuries had been completely healed with the help of the Small Revitalizing Pellet. However, the consumed True Qi in Li Ming's body was not replenished at all. Li Ming was very clear that this was because the Fire Silkworm's Inhibition Formation had not disappeared, preventing the world's spirit energy from entering the domain.

Right now, if Li Ming wanted to recover the consumed Innate Qi, he had to destroy this restriction first. Furthermore, this restriction sealed off the exit for the two of them, so Li Ming had no choice but to destroy this restriction first in order to leave this place.
