The moment the two Totem-level Insect Races died, the entire swarm came to a halt.

Faced with Vera's Life Domain, the swarm no longer charged fearlessly.

Instead, a sense of fear appeared in their eyes.

Previously, it was due to the suppression of the two high-level Totem-level Insect Races that the swarm could operate as a unit, displaying the full force of the swarm.

But now, with the two Totem-level Insect Races dead....

The whole swarm was now a headless dragon!

Seeing Vera's Life Domain ahead, the swarm gradually came to a stop.

No longer moving forward.

They knew well that entering the domain would mean having their life force drained to death.

When high-tier insects in the swarm die, they are replaced by the next tier of insects.

However...

The number of Half-step Totem-level insects within the swarm was excessively large.

Each insect issued different commands, which resulted in....

Over time, the swarm began to fall into chaos.

Gradually, the swarm split into hundreds of groups.

Each group was led by a Half-step Totem-level insect.

Gu Xing observed this scene, pinching his chin in slight contemplation.

From this battle, he realized....

The strength of the swarm was indeed formidable.

If there was no method to counter them.

With their overwhelming numbers....

Only two Totem Tier One Insect Races were needed to lead the swarm to hunt a Totem Tier Five existence.

If it weren't for Cold Snake's clever maneuvering, escaping from the swarm's encircling would have been impossible.

However, the swarm's weakness was equally apparent.

That was the heavy reliance on high-tier Insect Race leadership.

As long as the leaders of the swarm were eliminated, the remaining insects were no threat at all.

However....

Taking down the leaders of the swarm was not as simple as it seemed.

If not for Vera, the Insect Race's nemesis, solving the Insect Race's crisis would have been virtually impossible for them this time.

At this moment.

Lilith approached Gu Xing with the Snow Woman at her side.

"What about the remaining insects?"

Lilith glanced at the remnants of the swarm.

Although Vera had previously slain part of them, the remaining numbers meant little to the entire swarm.

Even split into over a hundred groups, each group's numbers remained overwhelming.

Even a regular Totem Tier One, encountering such swarms, faced the risk of falling.

Gu Xing was equally troubled by this.

He couldn't think of any good solutions either.

Gu Xing had no choice but to turn to Vera.

Vera's abilities were the key to dealing with this swarm, so he could only tentatively inquire if Vera had any solutions.

After some thought, Vera slowly spoke:

"Master, maybe I can give it a try!"

After saying this, Vera utilized a small portion of Life Energy.

The next moment.

A vine grew in the midst of the swarm.

And with this vine, Vera merely used a sliver of Life Energy.

This sliver of Life Energy couldn't even pose a threat to a Commander-Level Insect Race.

But strangely....

The swarm, sensing the aura of this vine.

Oddly chose to avoid it, even though the vine was incredibly weak, they dared not touch it.

Seeing this, Gu Xing was a bit surprised.

But he quickly understood the reason.

It might be because the swarm's intelligence was too low.

Vera had previously massacred the swarm, making them remember her scent and labeling her as a nemesis.

Whenever encountered, they would immediately choose to evade.

"In that case...."

Gu Xing had an idea in his eyes.

Without Totem-level Insect Race leaders, this swarm could not discern danger.

Vera could completely use the vine to encircle the entire Snow Domain.

Confine the swarm within the bounds of the Snow Domain.

If this swarm wreaked havoc in the Alternate Space, the consequences would be extremely dire.

Therefore, confining them to the Snow Domain was the best solution.

However....

Gu Xing's gaze turned to the Snow Woman.

"Lady Snow Woman, I am planning to have Vera encircle the swarm within the Snow Domain. What do you think?"

"Of course, I will ensure that Vera surrounds the territories of the Snow Country to prevent the swarm from getting close."

Yet.

The Snow Woman was still in shock at this moment.

She never expected Gu Xing, a Monarch Tier One, to actually deal with two Totem-level Insect Races.

Moreover, the exceedingly troublesome swarm was effortlessly handled by Gu Xing.

All of this exceeded the understanding of the Snow Woman, who only ever stayed sheltered in the Snow Cave.

Next to her, Lilith nudged the Snow Woman gently with her elbow seeing she wasn't responding.

"Xiao Xue? What are you thinking? They're asking you something."

Reminded by Lilith, the Snow Woman slowly returned to her senses.

"Ye-yes!"

Understanding Gu Xing's plan, the Snow Woman quickly agreed.

After all, confining the swarm within the Snow Domain only brought benefits for her.

The Snow Country's strength was relatively weak, after all.

Moreover, with the sacrifice of the only formidable deterrence, the Snow Guardian, during this crisis.

Snow Country would certainly be in grave danger facing any onslaught from the Demon Race.

Indeed, if the Demon Race launched an attack on the Snow Country, it would have no means of resistance.

However....

As long as the swarm was confined within the Snow Domain.

It acted as an additional natural barrier outside the Snow Country.

The Insect Race couldn't differentiate between Alien Race, Human Race, or Demon Race.

All races were just food to them.

Thus, any attempts by the Demon Race to invade Snow Country would be met with attacks from the swarm.

Agreeing to Gu Xing's proposal brought nothing but benefits to the Snow Country.

"I have no objections!"

The Snow Woman nodded decisively, expressing she had no problem with it.

Seeing the Snow Woman's agreement, Gu Xing instructed Vera to proceed to the borders of the Snow Domain to handle the task.

Currently, with the swarm rampaging wildly, without quickly confining them.

They might soon escape the boundaries of the Snow Domain, posing threats to other races.

And nearest to the Snow Domain was the Angel Race.

Therefore, this operation needed to be completed promptly.

Within the Snow Country, the fierce beasts were nearly extinct now.

The Demon Race wouldn't appear in the Snow Domain at this time either.

So, Gu Xing let Vera handle the task alone.

After Vera left, Gu Xing's gaze fell upon the Snow Woman.

He gave Lilith a subtle look.

This time, he had another goal, which was to see if he could persuade the Snow Woman to join.

Lilith, noticing Gu Xing's subtle gesture, slightly twitched at the corner of her mouth.

The first priority of having an available spot wasn't to form a contract with her.

It was to contract her best friend.

However, after pondering for a moment, she decided to assist Gu Xing.

After all, there was a Blood Covenant between her and Gu Xing, which was enough for now.

But as for the Snow Woman....

The current chaos in the situation, any carelessness might mean never seeing her again.

Considering all aspects, the Snow Woman would indeed be safer becoming Gu Xing's Guardian Beast.
