During the battle, the roots of nearby large trees constantly emerged to become additional weapons, attacking the giant insect.

The Tree-man appeared somewhat clumsy, focused on slapping and entangling in the fight, while the Insect Race was fierce, leading both sides straight into close combat.

Both giant insects were highly toxic, but the Tree-man was fearless of the poison, resulting in a temporary stalemate.

Zhou Leng circled around to the back of the giant green insect.

This giant green insect was a full four meters long, about as thick as a group of people hugging it together, resembling a large green python, climbing onto the Tree-man.

It sprayed venom while using its numerous feet to peel away the bark.

Its body was wrapped in tree roots and struck by branches, yet it remained extremely supple and resilient, unharmed.

Zhou Leng attempted the Great River Entering the Sea move, striking the body of the giant green insect with a palm.

Bang.

This palm strike felt like hitting dead pork.

The giant insect's skin rippled like waves, quickly dissipating the force.

Zhou Leng's strike was comparable to a regular Blood Shocking Innate, yet this True Liquid Innate giant insect remained unscathed.

Although the giant insect individual was slightly weaker than Fierce Beasts, Giant Dragons, and Giants, its exceptional bodily defense and recovery ability granted it an actual combat power higher by one realm than ordinary Martial Artists.

The Tree-man was similar, with weak offensive power but strong defense.

The battle between the giant insect and the Tree-man was more like a marathon, extremely lengthy.

After perceiving the giant insect's uniqueness, Zhou Leng stopped wasting time and formed his right hand into a sword with his fingers.

"Sshhh..."

A three-and-a-half-inch-long Void-Breaking Finger Sword Qi was thrust out.

Pfft.

Silently and effortlessly, it penetrated the body of the giant green insect.

Zhou Leng followed it up with three finger strikes, piercing three holes before quickly sidestepping to retreat.

Pfft.

Juice spurted out from the three holes simultaneously.

This experienced Tree-man extended three tree roots along the holes, prying them open and not giving the giant green insect a chance to heal.

Ssshh...

The three tree roots tore open the holes, connecting them into one.

The remaining tree roots forcefully squeezed and wrapped around.

Pff pff pff...

The giant green insect twisted in agony, its internal fluids forcibly expelled, splattering everywhere.

Zhou Leng glanced at the giant caterpillar.

With thorny spikes incessantly spraying, the Tree-man was unafraid, but he had no need for it.

The Vigorous Root thoroughly strangled the legless giant locust, while another Tree-man inserted roots into the giant locust's belly, sucking the juices dry in revenge for its kin.

"You go deal with the remaining Innate giant insects, I'll take care of..."

Before Zhou Leng could finish speaking, the ice wall collapsed with a crash, and a massive bone-like horn protruded, colliding with the airborne Cyan Flame.

"Pfft..."

Cyan Flame, under multiple spell protections, had them shattered layer by layer. It spat blood, flew backward, hitting a tree, and passed out.

The head of the elephant-sized giant horned insect shook, completely smashing through the ice wall, ready to continue its charge towards Cyan Flame.

"Courting death!"

Zhou Leng crouched, both legs swelling with muscle mass, suddenly pushing off the ground.

Boom!

A ring of dust spread as the ground exploded into a large pit.

Zhou Leng dashed to the side of the giant horned insect at a speed faster than the giant locust, executing his strongest technique.

Killing Move, Thousand Seas.

Rumbling.

True Qi surged like a tidal wave, rushing forward with a roar.

At this moment, Zhou Leng transformed into a gigantic wave in the sea, crashing onto the glossy black shell of the giant horned insect.

The giant horned insect staggered backward, shattering a large section of the ice wall.

Zhou Leng squinted at it.

Where the giant horned insect received the palm, there was only a faint mark on the shell.

Even the mighty Thousand Seas couldn't penetrate the insect's shell, only forcing it back with sheer force.

"Hmm..."

The giant horned insect roared, turning to charge at Zhou Leng.

With such a massive body and such high speed, any True Liquid Innate would find it impossible to evade.

Zhou Leng employed the Eight Trigrams Step, moving like a shadow, slipping past.

Void-Breaking Finger, Great Puncture Star!

Zhou Leng pointed out, like a sword piercing the stars, stabbing the giant horned insect's side.

The giant horned insect charged forward, their paths crossing.

The Finger Sword Qi sliced through the outer shell, leaving a distinct scratch on it, producing a harsh sound that set teeth on edge.

It still couldn't penetrate the insect's shell.

"A Blood Shocking Innate giant insect is truly formidable."

The previous move was enough to draw blood from a True Liquid Innate Mammoth.

But the giant horned insect remained unhurt.

Zhou Leng stepped forward, staying by the giant horned insect's side, and swung his right hand repeatedly.

The Void-Breaking Finger Sword Qi was like a sharp blade, carving out clear streaks on the giant horned insect's shell, making sizzling sounds.

Suddenly, Zhou Leng's wrist twitched.

His two fingers abruptly accelerated, the Finger Sword Qi falling upon the insect's shell.

In a blink of an eye, the new marks seemed like blooming petals.

Seventh Style of the Void-Breaking Finger, Chaotic Flying Flowers.

Insect shell engravings.

The giant horned insect, noticing the shell remained unbroken, leisurely turned to face Zhou Leng.

A Vitality Stage giant locust kicked its legs, charging in.

Zhou Leng countered with a left-handed slap.

Bang...

The head of the giant locust exploded, juices splattering.

The giant horned insect seized the chance, lowered its head, and charged with its horns!

Zhou Leng had long consumed the Demon Dragon's Eye Magic Potion, perceiving the giant horned insect as if it moved in slow motion, approaching at a crawl.

He sidestepped nimbly, gazing at the insect shell marks carved by Chaotic Flying Flowers.

Though the Overlapping Waves Palm was a Qi Blood Realm technique, even the Thousand Seas formed by condensing the Eighteen Forms killing move was better in sheer force and lacked in other aspects.

The Celestial Tide Palm of the Innate Pavilion in Ancient River Sect, improved by the Void God, possessed power and subtlety beyond it.

Even with Minor Achievement, if used properly, it is not weaker than Thousand Seas.

The third form, Sea Shock.

On the surface of the right palm, True Qi bursts forth, about an inch thick, vibrating rapidly.

The thick True Qi falls on the petal scratches.

The right palm descends, like an earthquake at the seabed.

This move contains the Mountain-Separating Bull-Striking Force.

The first shock, outside.

The second shock, inside.

The third shock, inner and outer tremble together.

Crack...

The right palm breaks through the petal scratches, the right arm penetrates the insect shell, the right palm slaps the soft insect body protected by the shell.

The aftershocks of the Sea Shock, tremble again three times.

Flesh and blood explode, splattering like mud.

Zhou Leng quickly withdraws his hand, retreating.

The insect shell cracks open from the middle of the back, suddenly spreading wide, as if a knife had swept through.

It's the insect shell, scientific name elytra, also considered wings.

Zhou Leng bows his head, crouching.

The sharp blade-like wings slice over his head, cutting a few strands of hair.

The giant horned insect stops, turns around, lets out a mournful screech, and charges again.

Zhou Leng calmly sidesteps again, once more facing the pierced hole on the side of the giant horned insect.

Without using any move, he grabs the edges of the hole in the insect shell with both hands, his arms flush with Qi blood, and he fiercely tears downwards.

Tear!

Half of the insect shell is ripped off by Zhou Leng with brute force, like a giant black door.

The giant horned insect loses its balance, crashing through several large trees in succession.

Zhou Leng casually throws down the insect shell, rushing towards the unguarded half of the giant horned insect's body.

The giant horned insect turns its head to glance at the human behind it, unable to discern any emotion, only the utmost calmness.

"Ssssss..."

The giant horned insect flaps its wings to fly, but with its shell torn off, its body wobbles, and its take-off is slow.

Zhou Leng lightly leaps up, landing on the back of the giant horned insect, as if standing on an elephant's back.

He swings his fist downwards.

One punch, a fleshy hole, liquid splattering.

Two punches, a second fleshy hole, liquid splattering.

Three punches...

In the blink of an eye, Zhou Leng unleashes more than a dozen punches, half of his body buried within the giant horned insect.

The giant horned insect, in agony, stiffens, trying to roll over and shake off Zhou Leng.

In the instant it rolls over, Zhou Leng releases twin Thousand Seas palm strikes.

The overwhelmingly fierce palm power and True Qi blast like two whirlwinds, along the giant insect's back, rushing towards its abdomen.

With two simultaneous booms, a hole with a diameter exceeding half a meter pierces through the chest and abdomen.

At the same time, the residual force shreds the surrounding wound, expanding it to a diameter of one meter.

Zhou Leng is thrown away, the giant horned insect rolling on the ground, leaving behind dense liquid and a pungent stench.

The fighting tree-men and giant insects occasionally glance over, horrified in their hearts.

This human is even more savage than the giant insect.

Zhou Leng sees the giant horned insect still rolling on the ground, not yet dead; he knows the insect race's alien life force is strong. Bursting forth, he charges to the front of the giant horned insect, grabbing its battering horn with both hands.

Taking a deep breath, Qi and blood surge through his body, his sleeves burst open, his arms swell by two more circles, large tendons and veins protruding from his skin.

He raises the giant horned insect high.

The giant horned insect's battering horn points downwards, like an elephant standing upright in mid-air, its small legs scrambling wildly.

Zhou Leng leans backward, the massive body of the giant horned insect accelerating downwards, its weight exceeding thirty tons crashing into the ground.

Boom!

The giant horned insect writhes in pain, its vision flickering black as it faints.

But the life force of the giant insect race is too powerful; in the blink of an eye, it regains consciousness.

Opening its eyes, it finds itself once again raised high by Zhou Leng, then its body plummeting rapidly.

Boom!

The nearby giant insects and tree-men, including the recently awakened Cyan Flame, watch as Zhou Leng repeatedly lifts and smashes the giant horned insect.

Upon the seventh smash, a crack echoes as the connection between the battering horn and the skull splits cleanly.

The giant horned insect's entire body shatters, liquid splattering, several small legs curling and twitching.

Zhou Leng looks at the nearly two-meter-long black battering horn in his hand, its bone-like shell smooth and polished, without a single blemish.

Keep it, it can be sold for hundreds of thousands at least, at least half of an Embracing Essence Pill.

All the tree-men and giant insects are greatly shocked.

The Cyan Flame mutters softly, "If I had known you were so fierce, I wouldn't have fought so hard."

He has already consumed various magic potions, his wounds healing rapidly.

Zhou Leng surveys the scene, rushing towards the smaller giant insects, knocking them all down with a single punch each.

Then supporting the other tree-men, leaving only one giant hairy worm.

Zhou Leng really doesn't want to fight this giant hairy worm; ever since he was young, the sight of hairy worms gave him goosebumps, making his whole body itchy.

The tree-men quickly kill the giant hairy worm.

Vigorous Root sighs, "You're even fiercer than on the youth battlefield."

Zhou Leng says, "Next time we'll have more experience; forget breaking armor, forget Mountain-Separating Bull-Striking, nothing beats slamming them to death."

Everyone falls silent; any ordinary martial artist daring such an act would have long since been killed by the giant horned insect.

"Let's clean up the battlefield." Vigorous Root and the tree-men extend their roots into the giant insect corpses, absorbing the liquid.

And allocating a portion of the low-toxicity giant horned insect liquid into a steel basin Zhou Leng took out.

"Eat it while it's hot, rich in the power of life," Vigorous Root says.

Zhou Leng walks towards Cyan Flame, asking, "How are you?"

"Just a minor injury. We Demon Spirit Masters are fragile, but with magic potions to help." Cyan Flame says, casting a spell to transform a basin of colorful giant insect juice into a jelly.

"Watermelon flavor, try it."

Zhou Leng, having just finished a battle, with significant depletion of Qi and blood, hears his stomach growling, takes out a spoon, scoops a piece of giant insect jelly, and brings it to his mouth, trembling slightly.

Opening his mouth, sipping it down, it slides down his esophagus into his stomach, filling his mouth with a melon fragrance.

The rich power of life blooms in his stomach, soothing his hungry intestines.

Eating in large mouthfuls, he quickly finishes a basin.

His abdomen slightly bulges.

This small basin of giant insect juice contains power equivalent to two Replenishing Essence Pills, valued at 200,000.
