The City of Terror

Chapter 126 -Terrifying Reproductive Ability

What Wei Xiao Bei saw was specks of white, but in reality these white specks were fist sized eggs.

As the eggs fell on the sand, they quickly incubated and hatched within half an hour. Countless Sacred Beetle Descendants limped out of them, all covered in mucus,

Newly born Sacred Beetle Descendant had soft bodies. Their shell only gave off a slight tan colour, but under the effects of the golden radiance, their shells turned bronze and hardened in under 20 seconds.

The amount of specks that the Radiant Sacred Beetle sprayed out was too much for Wei Xiao Bei to count.

In just ten minutes, the amount of Sacred Beetles Descendants had already surpassed the initial amount of Sacred Beetle Descendants that were previously climbing up the mountain.

What a powerful reproductive ability.

Wei Xiao Bei felt his back tingle after seeing this.

Let alone for other people, if the Radiant Sacred Beetle pointed its back part towards Wei Xiao Bei, he would have to run for his life.

Whoosh!

A long time of laying eggs seemed to have exhausted the Radiant Sacred Beetle. Waves of air drained out from its body. And as if they had received a signal, the ready and waiting Sacred Beetle Descendants threw themselves towards the mountain with an earth-shattering grandeur.

When the Sacred Beetle Descendants left the golden radiance, each of their bodies continued emitting a golden light. It appeared as if they had become the Radiant Sacred Beetle themselves.

Compared to before, the speed of the beetles had doubled and even the ones with bigger bodies were able to fly up dozens of meters into the sky.

These beetles quickly approached the fiery red mountain range.

However, when they got close and began climbing up the mountain wall, they began digging at the mountain wall. They threw down the soil and stones, while those below them quickly quickly caught them between each other and returned back the way they came, pushing the soil and stones in front of the Radiant Sacred Beetle.

Millions of Sacred Beetle Descendants cooperated, making them highly efficient. In a short time, a small hill had formed in front of the Radiant Sacred Beetle.

At this point, the Radiant Sacred Beetle lowered its head and gnawed on the small hill, swallowing large amounts of red soil and stones into its stomach.

Perhaps because the Sacred Beetle Descendants’ actions of digging at the mountain was viewed as much more hateful, more Fire Crows flew out from the fiery red mountain range only after just a few moments had passed. Their numbers exceeded a hundred, and there were even other creatures that could control fire within the mix.

Wei Xiao Bei from a safe distance away, was still able to clearly see that there were more than 10 Scarlet Pheasants.

Other then the Scarlet Pheasants, there was even a snake with six limbs and four wings. Its body was around 3 meters long, yellow in color, and was surrounded in red fumes. Its body was faintly discernible through the smoke and from what he could tell, it appeared to be similar to the Divine Dragons in Chinese Legends.

Six limbed, four winged snake?

Wei Xiao Bei racked his brains. Only then did he remember something in the Classic of Mountains and Seas called a Fei Yi.

This Fei Yi was one of the more unique monsters in Chinese legends. Other than having six limbs and four wings, it was said that its appearance brought great droughts.

It was almost the same as the Yong. However, looking at its imposing manner over even the Scarlet Pheasant, it was clear that it was at least equal to or above a 3-Star Creature.

Naturally, Wei Xiao Bei only based this on his own judgement. As for its true identity, he was too far from the battle for his battlelog to receive any new input.

The Scarlet Pheasants were the fastest among them. They directly collided head on with the Sacred Beetles.

From Wei Xiao Bei’s point of view, the Scarlet Pheasants were much stronger than the Fire Crows. Not only did their flames have a higher temperature, their speed alone was already enough to get rid of its enemies.

With a loud boom, the Scarlet Pheasants hit the ground, igniting the Sacred Beetles and turning them into balls of fire.

However, when the Scarlet Pheasants flapped their wings and soared back to the skies, the golden light on the beetle’s bodies suddenly intensified and instantly extinguish the flames. Even the beetles that had been burned till they were half dead also recovered.

The only difference between the latter and the former was that the latter’s golden light disappeared.

However, this did not seem to be that serious. The latter beetle’s returned back to the range of the golden radiance and once again came out with golden light covering their bodies.

As a result, the pheasant’s attacks were only able to kill a single unlucky Sacred Beetle.

The Fire Crows’ following attack was also largely abated by the golden light.

At this time, Wei Xiao Bei understood one thing.

The golden light on the Sacred Beetle Descendents’ bodies was like an extra life. As long as their injuries were not life threatening, they could use the energy of the golden light to recover.

Just like that, the Sacred Beetles that were previously insta-killable, had now become immortal cockroaches. They risked their lives as they went up the mountain and dug up soil ant stones to give to the Radiant Sacred Beetle.

Some of the Fire Crows that had flown too low were even counter attacked by the Sacred Beetles.

Naturally, these particular Sacred Beetle Descendants that dared to provoke the higher level monsters were also penalized. Those that had gone too close to the Fire Crows were attacked by higher temperatures that far surpassed the previous temperatures they had been exposed to.

Every Sacred Beetle Descendant that dared to charge towards the Fire Crows instantly turned into ashes.

However, these Fire Crows had also more or less received an attack from them and became somewhat injured.

Some of the Fire Crows even dropped to the ground and were immediately submerged under a sea of beetles.

At this point in time, no matter how high the temperatures around these Fire Crows were, they were still instantly torn to pieces by the Sacred Beetle Descendants.

However, these Fire Crows did not just resign to their fate. At the moment they were torn to pieces, a fierce flame came out from their bodies, and directly triggered an explosion, blasting the beetles on their bodies to pieces.

However, there was just too many beetles. Even if a single crow self-destructed, it could only kill a few thousand beetles. This was only a cup of water on a burning cart of firewood.

Following the large losses taken by the Fire Crows, more Fire Crows flew out from the mountain range, increasing their forces.

As for the six limbed, four winged snakes that were watching the situation from afar, they had also began to move forward.

After they reached a certain distance, they opened their mouths and lightly inhaled. In an instant, countless grains of sand rose up, turning the whole place dusky for a period of time. The grains of sand then wound around the Sacred Beetles in its vicinity.

The golden light on these beetles glowed like light bulbs in the darkness, defending against the sand.

However, the sand continuously whittling away at the golden light, quickly using it up.
