Chapter 161 - The Giant Centipede!
The Immortal Emperor Returns
Chapter 161 The Giant Centipede!
Boom!
A terrifying explosion resounded through the valley.
Chu Xun looked over and saw that the trees halfway up the mountain had snapped and huge rocks were rolling down, as if there was a dinosaur on a rampage there.
The trees were dense and covered everything, including the light. Chu Xun could not see what was over there.
His divine sense began to spread, and all the scenery were displayed in his mind.
Chu Xun’s expression changed slightly.
He finally knew what it was.
In the dense forest, a figure was fleeing in panic and a terrifying centipede was chasing after him.
The centipede was nearly one meter wide and more than ten meters long. Its body was black and red and its hundreds of feet were like sharp knives shining with a cold light. Wherever it passed, the trees were shorn in half and all the boulders exploded.
“Puff!”
The huge centipede opened its mouth and spurted out a mouthful of green liquid, which flew forth like a sharp green arrow.
The man who was running ahead moved sideways to avoid the green liquid, which then hit a huge tree that could only be encircled by two persons with their hands joined together. The green liquid actually penetrated through the tree, leaving a fist-sized hole in the trunk and did not stop until it penetrated through several big trees in succession. After dropping onto the ground, it left a big hole, the liquid being highly corrosive.
Seeing that, Chu Xun could not help raising his eyebrows. The corrosively of this green liquid was truly astonishing.
A man and a beast were approaching him at an extremely fast speed.
Within the time of a dozen breaths, the man appeared 20 or 30 meters away from Chu Xun.
When the man saw the dead presbyters of Poison Sect lying on the ground, he roared angrily, “Chu Xun, go to hell!”
Chu Xun realized that this person was King of Poison.
At this time, the huge centipede had caught up with him.
The ground under King of Poison’s feet exploded with a loud bang and he rushed toward Chu Xun with a bloodthirsty might.
Chu Xun sneered and made a magic signet with one hand.
Boom!
The void trembled and a giant palm descended from the sky with a terrifying might, which was extremely frightening.
Unexpectedly, King of Poison, who was rushing toward Chu Xun, suddenly swerved to one side. A grandmaster of Seventh Grade was extremely fast, so he succeeded in escaping from the falling palm.
At the same time, the huge centipede was in the path of the falling palm.
Boom!
For a moment, the valley vibrated and the ground cracked, dust and soil flew all over the sky.
Chu Xun’s expression changed slightly. He tapped the ground and moved more than 10 meters sideways.
A green liquid hit the place where he stood before and corroded the ground, leaving a big hole. The air was filled with a strong fishy smell.
The centipede did not die?
Chu Xun was very surprised. The strength of the centipede’s body was beyond his imagination.
“Chu Xun, play with the Holy Beast! Don’t let it kill you. You have to live so that I can kill you personally and offer you as a sacrifice to the dead presbyters of our Poison Sect.”
King of Poison shouted loudly and his voice resounded through the valley.
However, he himself fled toward the exit of the valley as fast as he could.
There were still hundreds of disciples from the Poison Sect in the valley. At this moment, they all had despair in their eyes when they saw that King of Poison had actually given up on them and was fleeing for his own life.
“Want to run away?”
Chu Xun’s eyes grew cold and a wooden sword appeared in his hand, which glittered with a bright gold color.
A burst of Sword radiance shot out as Chu Xun wielded his sword.
King of Poison, who was running away, felt a sense of danger, so he subconsciously moved sideways.
But it was still too late. One of his arms was smashed into pieces.
King of Poison’s shrill scream resounded through the valley.
He felt panic stricken and fearful, and was running out of the valley as fast as he could.
Chu Xun raised his sword and was about to chase after King of Poison. Just then, a cold ray of light attacked him.
He wielded his sword horizontally to block the cold light.
Ding!
Sparks flew in all directions, and half of the sharp light was fended off. It was just one of centipede’s legs.
Chu Xun tapped lightly on the ground and shot out like a streak of light. Accompanied by a strong sonic boom, he ran toward the outside of the valley. He vowed to kill King of Poison.
With his high speed, it was not difficult for Chu Xun to catch up with King of Poison. Although King of Poison was a grandmaster of Seventh Grade, his speed was far slower than Chu Xun’s.
“Ah...”
Chu Xun was already a few hundred meters away. At this time, however, mournful screams came from behind him.
He suddenly stopped and turned his head, only to see the huge centipede whose one leg had been cut off by him, beginning to go mad and venting its anger on the hundreds of disciples of Poison Sect, when it found it could not pursue him.
It spat out a mouthful of the venom, which killed more than 10 people instantly.
Chu Xun fell silent. These people were, so to speak, innocent. They were not against Chu Xun. The only mistake they made was that they became the disciples of Poison Sect.
Chu Xun could not bear to see hundreds of people dying.
“Swoosh!”
The wooden sword was wielded and golden Sword Qi appeared in the air and headed straight for the giant centipede.
He gave up chasing after King of Poison and chose to save these few hundreds of people.
Clang! Clang!
Sparks flew in all directions. Each of the Centipede’s leg was as sharp as a knife, but it could not stop the Sword Qi.
This Sword Qi cut off more than a dozen of its legs.
This giant centipede had hundreds of legs, so losing more than ten of them did not cause it any pain, but it was enough to make it go mad.
The centipede raised half of its body. Its black and cold eyes were as big as beans and gave off a strong chill, which made people feel frightened.
“Puff!”
A mouthful of green liquid was shot at Chu Xun’s face.
At the same time, the centipede’s hundreds of legs moved. It rushed to attack Chu Xun, its movements as quick as a flash of lightning.
Chu Xun sighed in his heart. “What a clever animal. It actually know how to attack the enemy in two ways at the same time.”
Chu Xun sheathed his wooden sword. Then, tens of thousands of Reincarnation Lines appeared around him and gathered into a long whip.
The Reincarnation Whip shook and shot out.
Boom!
The tip of the whip hit the centipede’s back. Immediately, its green blood splashed all over the sky and it fell to the ground.
The centipede was so angry that it hissed loudly.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Many cold streaks of light flashed, and a strong wind raged.
Chu Xun was surprised to find that these streaks of cold light were actually the centipede’s legs. It was truly a wonder that the centipede had this type of attacking skills.
Chu Xun shook his wrist and the Reincarnation Whip circled in the air and shot down the cold lights.
Hiss... hiss...
The centipede held its head high and rushed toward Chu Xun. Its body, which was more than ten meters long, spread out and encircled Chu Xun. Then hundreds of its legs turned into sharp knives to attack Chu Xun.
The Reincarnation Whip suddenly exploded and turned into countless Reincarnation Lines, which then swam in the air like numerous white snakes and hit the centipede’s legs.
For a moment, clangs were heard and sparks flew in all directions.
The centipede hissed in pain. Almost all of the hundreds of legs on its one side had been cut off by the Reincarnation Line.
Chu Xun clenched his fists and his True Energy surged, ready to gush forth. Then he punched the centipede’s body fiercely.
“Clang!”
A sharp clanging sound of metal could be heard. The centipede’s scales were as hard as steel.
However, they were unable to withstand Chu Xun’s fist attack. After a single blow from Chu Xun, a bloody hole appeared in the centipede’s body and it flew backward.
Chu Xun approached it and raised his fist to hit it again.
By now, the centipede knew Chu Xun’s strength very well. It opened its mouth and spewed out a vast cloud of green mist, which covered everything.
This green mist was extremely terrifying. Wherever it passed, the plants would wither instantly.
At the same time, this terrifying giant centipede moved all of its hundreds of legs. Even though all of its legs on one side of its body had been cut off by the Reincarnation Line and it seemed like it was going to flip over while running, its speed did not decrease at all. It then rushed into the forest in the distance at full speed.
Chu Xun made a magic signet and waved his hand!
Whistle!
A strong wind rose and howled. The horrible tornado that suddenly appeared out of nowhere blew the green mist which was all over the space toward the sky.
In an instant, the green mist was dispersed.
Chu Xun looked over and could not help smiling. In the distance, smoke and dust were all over the sky and trees had snapped. The huge centipede had fled into the deep forest.
“What a clever animal!” Chu Xun sighed in his heart secretly. In fact, as long as he wanted to, he could catch up with the centipede, but he did not do it. Such a huge centipede was poisonous, but he had never heard of it hurting people. Moreover, it was so big and must have lived for hundreds of years. It was better not to kill it!
Chu Xun turned his head and looked at the hundreds of disciples from the Poison Sect.
The hundreds of people looked at Chu Xun with complicated expressions in their eyes. Just now, their householder, King of Poison, had abandoned them. And in the end, it was Chu Xun who had saved them.
“You can leave now!” Chu Xun said indifferently.
The hundreds of people were slightly stunned, and then they all knelt at the same time. After kowtowing three times to Chu Xun, they stood up and walked out of the valley.
Perhaps, from this moment on, Chu Xun was no longer a vicious person or a devil in their hearts, but God Chu!
