Chapter 128 – Landslide?

Soon, millions of Sacred Beetle Descendants surrounded the Radiant Sacred Beetle again.

Hum!

The Radiant Sacred Beetle let out a hum. The recovered Sacred Beetle Descendant army once again surged like a tide towards the mountain range.

Seeing the Sacred Beetle Descendants move again, the other monsters became excited and once again began their massacre. The amount of gains that they were receiving was not small.

A few Fire Crows had grown while the Scarlet Pheasant’s flames increased in intensity. As for the six limbed, four winged snake, the sand that they controlled had increased in density.

Seeing this scene, Wei Xiao Bei was left feeling slightly enlightened.

The white mice that were cooperating in the laboratory building popped up in his mind. He was able to roughly understand that massacres were the best way to gain strength.

After these monsters killed their enemies, they would be able to obtain power to strengthen themselves.

Naturally, it was not as meticulous as his status panel. He had already felt that his status panel’s existence was somehow amplifying his gains.

While Wei Xiao Bei was thinking of these things, the Sacred Beetles were now under attack once again as they dug at the mountain wall and counter attacked from time to time.

However, not long after, the giant beetles had formed a line, flapped their wings, and charged forward.

Wei Xiao Bei had temporarily named them large Sacred Beetles.

The large Sacred Beetles appearance had changed the situation on the battlefield situation.

Just like the Sacred Beetle Descendants, the large Sacred Beetles were also covered in a golden light when they left the golden radiance. Moreover, their bodies were huge, and their shells were incredibly hard. The impact upon collision would be very strong.

Even if the Fire Crows wanted to burn it to death, they would not be able to do so in the similar short amount of time.

As for the Scarlet Pheasants that liked to kill their enemies with their speed and flames, they simply did not dare fight the large Sacred Beetle straight on. They could only fly past them and attempt to ignite them.

Whoosh, whoosh. Countless six limbed, four winged snakes worked together to make the sand rise and move towards the large Sacred Beetles.

Under the effect of the sand storm, the large beetles seemed as if they were stuck in mud as their speed rapidly decreased. The golden light around them had also been suppressed by the sand.

However, the six limbed, four winged snakes could only control a certain area, not everywhere. The majority of large Sacred Beetles acted like tanks as they bashed and collided with anything in their path. They broke through the wall of monsters and caused a loud bang as they hit the mountain wall.

The collision force of these beetles was very powerful. As the countless large beetles bashed against the mountain, the ground shook.

Every Fire Crow that was hit along the way died in an instant.

Even the Sacred Beetles that were working on the mountain wall were bashed to death.

Their large jaws collided against the mountain wall and had actually got stuck in it. Afterwards, they started to struggle free from it, causing soil and stone to crumble down the mountain.

In a few seconds, the large beetles had dug out a huge hole on the mountain wall.

The Sacred Beetle Descendants moving behind the large Sacred Beetles became even more busy. Their work of digging and transporting was turned into transporting only, increasing the efficiency of the whole army by a lot.

Huge volumes of soil and stone were transported to the Radiant Sacred Beetle ready for consumption.

In reality, Wei Xiao Bei was a bit suspicious as he looked at this scene. He questioned why the Radiant Sacred Beetle did not eat anything else but the soil and stone of the fiery red mountain range.

Could it be that the soil and stone of the mountain was full of nutrients?

Thinking about this, Wei Xiao Bei suddenly became slightly terrified.

His intuition was sending him a warning.

Wei Xiao Bei’s intuition was already at 11 points. After being supplemented by the negative jing, his ability to sense danger and foresee it had become much stronger.

Wei Xiao Bei immediately focused and did not allow himself to get even a little bit careless. Without a doubt, the entire battle will change once the Radiant Sacred Beetle made its move.

Wei Xiao Bei unravelled the strips of cloth on his arms to check up on his injury. The injuries caused by the Sacred Beetle Descendants had almost fully recovered. Although there were still scars left and was not fully healed, it would not have much of an effect on Wei Xiao Bei’s movements.

Wei Xiao Bei turned around and then moved his hands and feet as he crawled away from the fiery red mountain range.

At this period of time, the Fire Crows, Scarlet Pheasants, and six limbed, four winged snakes slowly lost control of the battle after the large beetles came out.

Killing these large beetles in such a short amount of time would be hard for them. Just the golden light alone would take them a lot of time to remove. Moreover, the large beetles’ hard shells made them sink even more into despair.

The large beetles might not have strong fighting abilities, but their spine tingling defense already made Wei Xiao Bei give up on thinking of any ideas of trying to kill them.

Even the six limbed, four winged snakes could only slow down the large beetles’ advance, but were unable to breakthrough their shells to absorb their water content. The large beetles had already exceeded the six limbed, four winged snakes ability.

After five minutes, Wei Xiao Bei had crawled onto the side of a sand dune. He immediately leapt like a frog to get rid of the sand on him. After that, he stuck close to the ground without letting his torso touch the ground, and crawled towards another sand dune.

Wei Xiao Bei was feeling slightly emotional thinking about his crawling method.

Before his agility attribute had increased, Wei Xiao Bei was very slow at this crawling method. At the very least, he was only a bit faster than a normal walking pace.

However, now that his agility had increased and his hand-eye coordination and flexibility had increased to 16 points, Wei Xiao Bei could move at a faster speed without letting anything trip him. His reflex and balance on the other hand, allowed him to be almost immune to all obstacles.

In a way, his crawling method had become spider-like. The speed was not that much slower than his normal jogging pace.

In reality, animals using four limbs to run instead of two was a reasonable finding. Animals that moved on all fours were not slow, except for naturally slow animals like turtles.

As he was quickly crawled on all limbs, Wei Xiao Bei had quickly distanced himself from the fiery red mountain range. He moved until he was back at the valley filled with Giant Black Scorpions. He sat down on the peak of a sand dune and slowly ate the hardtack he brought in his backpack, while staring at the mountains.

Wei Xiao Bei had not fought much, but due to the increasing temperature near the mountain range, he had lost a lot of energy especially after crawling back.

However, he felt that he was now in a safe zone, though he still did not let his guard down.

At this time, the Radiant Sacred Beetle was feeling fully rejuvenated after eating.

The large Sacred Beetles were hitting the wall and the Sacred Beetle Descendants were transporting soil and stone in large quantities. Their speed was so fast that the transportation speed had surpassed the Radiant Sacred Beetle’s eating speed.

As this trend continued, the monsters that lived in the fiery red mountain range could only stare at the Radiant Sacred Beetle as it ate. They were uncertain if the Radiant Sacred Beetle would attack the mountain and kill them all after it ate its fill.

The battle strength between two sides would not even need to be mentioned. Just the size of the Radiant Sacred Beetle’s could tell you that the monsters of the mountain range were no match for it.

Just a single bash from it would leave all of them breathless. Moreover, the Radiant Sacred Beetle still had other unknown abilities.

The digging speed of the large beetles was fast. The mountain wall was like tofu in front of their big jaws. By just inserting the jaws into the mountain wall and pulling it back had easily created huge holes in the mountain.

Some of the large beetles that seemed to be single minded continued to dig through the mountain with their bodies already inside.

Bang! A large Sacred Beetle seemed to had hit something hard as it dug.

However, it did not give up at all. It retreated ten meters and then flapped its wings to increase its momentum as it striked through the giant hole.

Boom!

The sound of the beetle hitting something bell-like echoed from within the hole. The large beetle looked extremely disoriented as it came out of the hole. It seemed to have hit something and heavily regretted it.

Following this fierce strike, the fiery red mountain range shook.

This shaking was definitely not caused by the large Sacred Beetle’s strike. It was also impossible for it to be the Radiant Sacred Beetle.

Boom! The fiery red mountain range shook again. This time, even the sand around the mountains were also shaken.

The Fie Crows, Scarlet Pheasants, and six limbed, four winged snakes were immediately frightened. They had even let go of the Sacred Beetle Descendants that were already in their mouths. They immediately turned around and flew up high in the sky.

In contrast to their actions, the Sacred Beetle Descendants and the large Sacred Beetles were still digging at the mountain wall. Even in the face of the fierce shaking, they did not sway at all as they calmly continued their tasks.

Only the Radiant Sacred Beetle changed, and stopped eating. Its antenna, that was more than 30 meters long, began to sway, as if it was trying to pick up something.

The shaking from the mountain range increased in intensity. Even Wei Xiao Bei who was five kilometers away could feel it.

This scene made Wei Xiao Bei remember the scene of the Radiant Sacred Beetle’s appearance.

Could it be that another large monster is going to appear around the mountain range? Could it be that it’s the one that’s creating all the shaking?

At this time, the Radiant Sacred Beetle let out a hum as it seemed to have found some kind of danger. It did not even care about the stone and soil in front of it and moved backwards, pushing its back part into the sand.

However, compared to the speed it came out from the sand, returning back inside was much slower.

Before half of the Radiant Sacred Beetle’s body had been drilled back into the sand, a loud boom sounded. Even with blurry sight, Wei Xiao Bei could see that there had been a landslide on the mountain range.

This was truly a real version of a landslide. In an instant, there was an earthquake and the mountains shooked. Countless rocks fell down the mountain wall.

At this point in time, the Radiant Sacred Beetle came back from its standstill and quickly escaped.

However, it was already too late. Most of the Sacred Beetle Descendants had been directly buried under the rocks. As for the large Sacred Beetles, they used the momentum of the fall to leave the vicinity of the mountain.

It was initially not that bad as only a few small stones fell. With the large beetles’ shells and body size, this was not a big problem. However, when rocks larger than them suddenly began falling, their shells began to let out cracking sounds after being hit. It was to the point that they had a hard time crawling back up. A few large Sacred Beetles were still able fly, but they were smashed to the ground by large rocks from above, trapping them underneath.

In the vicinity of a hundred meters around the fiery red mountain range, it had become a disaster site as rocks of different sizes dropped down like meteors.

A large amount of the Sacred Beetle Descendants and large Sacred Beetles had also been buried under the rocks.

At this time, the landslide seemed to have reached its peak. The entire mountain range that appeared as if it was completely buried, instantly blew up.

Countless rocks flew everywhere.

The skies and earth had been completely covered in rocks.

The most unlucky one was the Radiant Sacred Beetle. A few rocks, over 30 meters wide,  directly hit against it and its body that was already half buried was sent flying by the rocks.

It had flown a kilometer away and then landed on its head, burying its head in the sand.

Even the hundred meter long Radiant Sacred Beetle had been knocked flying by a few big rocks, let alone the rest of the Sacred Beetle army.

After the fiery red mountain range collapsed, a large shockwave swept outwards. Everything had been engulfed in it, creating a huge sandstorm.

The Sacred Beetle Descendants and the large Sacred Beetles could not even touch the ground as they were blown away by the sandstorm.

Naturally, the Radiant Sacred Beetle’s side was not the only one that suffered casualties. When the large sandstorm engulfed everything, the Fire Crows, Scarlet Pheasants and six limbed, four winged snakes that were observing above the skies were also dragged in.

In an instant, the fiery red mountain range had been submerged in the sandstorm to the point that its outline could not even be seen anymore.

This sandstorm had even spread, until it was quite close to the sand dune Wei Xiao Bei was on.
