Crafting an Immortal Race with Daily Hexagrams

Chapter 277: Chapter 187: The Eccentric Cultivator (Part 5)

But Shen Wen’an felt that the other party was not from the Western Wilderness Barbarian Race.

A moment ago, when one of them shattered his Sword Aura, an eerie and unsettling cold aura was unintentionally emitted from them.

Could this power be the source of the Centipede Leader’s constant agitation?

Shen Wen’an pondered for a moment, then slowly raised his Sword Point.

A faint golden light emerged from his fingertip, gradually forming a three-inch golden sword.

As the Sword Element Power surged within him, the Dragon Soul Magical Sword gradually floated above his head, pointing directly toward where the four were located.

Strands of Sword Qi separated from the Dragon Soul Magical Sword, quickly forming one Sword Qi phantom after another around him!

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of long sword phantoms formed from Spiritual Qi densely pointed forward in front of him.

Shen Wen’an waved his hand!

The long swords instantly pierced through the night sky, flying forward!

The long swords formed by Sword Qi pierced and shattered the trees and rocks in that area without encountering any resistance.

The four people silently left the spot.

Shen Wen’an controlled the Dragon Soul Magical Sword to fly around, but seeing no trace of the four, he thought for a moment and summoned the Dragon Soul Magical Sword back.

After the Flying Sword returned into his body, he was about to return to the ancient tree to continue guarding the Centipede Leader.

”Squeak!”

The Silver Thread Centipede beside him suddenly let out a bizarre screech and pounced fiercely!

Shen Wen’an frowned, and instinctively a streak of Sword Qi appeared, slicing toward the Silver Thread Centipede!

But the Silver Thread Centipede did not dodge, fearlessly rushing forward despite his Sword Aura!

Thud!

The green Sword Qi viciously slashed at the body of the Silver Thread Centipede, splattering dark green blood as its hard body was nearly cut in half!

”Squeak...”

The Silver Thread Centipede let out a weak wail, but still strained to lift its head to look at Shen Wen’an.

Curious, Shen Wen’an looked closely and saw a strange all-red insect, like a beetle, clamped in its sharp teeth!

The insect struggled desperately, but was held tightly by the Silver Thread Centipede!

Enduring the pain, the Silver Thread Centipede suddenly exerted force, directly crushing the crimson beetle and swallowed it!

At the same time, several Poisonous Miasma Centipedes in the Qi Cultivation Realm screeched and charged forward!

They frantically thrashed about in the night forest!

Shen Wen’an reacted and immediately urged the Sword Essence, forming a Sword Element Shield on his body.

With the faint light from the Sword Element Shield, he realized that at some point, dozens of similar strange insects had crawled to his feet.

Seeing these crimson beetles before him, his expression grew serious.

These creatures were not ordinary insects; they could stealthily avoid his Divine Sense and draw near without a sound?

With suspicion in his heart, he quietly retreated a few steps, then fiercely swung the Dragon-Slaying Magical Sword in his hand toward the ground!

A Sword Aura swept up fallen leaves and the crimson beetles before him!

Next to him, another Poisonous Miasma Centipede of the Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer raised its huge head high, circulated its Demon Essence within, and suddenly inhaled toward the leaves and crimson beetles in mid-air!

In an instant, those scarlet beetles were swallowed into its belly.

Shen Wen’an carefully inspected and confirmed there were no other dangers, then approached the wounded Silver Thread Centipede he had struck.

Seeing that its injuries were severe but its life was not in danger.

He whispered apologetically, ”I misunderstood you.”

Glancing at the wounds on the Silver Thread Centipede, Shen Wen’an felt fortunate that he only exerted a slight force and did not use too much power.

If he had used a bit more strength, the Silver Thread Centipede before him would have been cut into two.

A flash of light in his hand, Shen Wen’an took out a bottle of healing elixirs, poured out a few, crushed them, and sprinkled the powder onto the wound of the Silver Thread Centipede, then used Sword Essence to temporarily seal its wound.

After completing all this, he took out a Spirit Crystal from the Storage Bag and tossed it to the Silver Thread Centipede.

”Eat it, consider it compensation for you.”

The Silver Thread Centipede came up, and upon smelling the rich, pure Spiritual Power within the Spirit Crystal, its compound eyes flashed with excitement, and it immediately swallowed the Spirit Crystal.

...

The morning light filtered through the dense leaves, casting dappled shadows on the ground.

Shen Wen’an went to the place where the four had hidden last night and found traces of blood on a tree stump cut by Sword Qi.

Clearly, not all of the four emerged unscathed; someone was still injured by his Sword Qi.

Yet, even so, Shen Wen’an’s face showed no relief.

Leaving aside the ghostly methods of the four, the fact that they could withstand his Sword Qi alone proved their strength to be at least at the Fetal Breathing Realm.

Their strange appearances, formidable strength...

Where exactly did these people come from?

As Shen Wen’an pondered, a terrifying wave of power suddenly erupted from the Poisonous Miasma in the distance!

Subsequently, the Poisonous Miasma was blown away by a strong momentum, scattering in all directions!

A Sword Element Shield instantly formed on Shen Wen’an’s body to keep the Poisonous Miasma at bay.

After the Poisonous Miasma slowly dissipated, the enormous figure of the Centipede Leader already appeared not far away.

At this moment, the Centipede Leader raised the upper half of its body, its compound eyes looking down at Shen Wen’an from not far away.

Seeing this, Shen Wen’an sneered, ”What, you’ve broken through and think you can defeat me?”

The Centipede Leader hesitated for a long while, sensing the terrifying aura hiding within Shen Wen’an, it was secretly shocked, and obediently lowered its proud head.
