The words had barely been spoken!

Boom——!

Fang Qingyu's figure transformed into a thunderbolt tearing through the darkness, crashing fiercely towards the soil layer above.

The profound black Dragon Tiger Strength surged instantly to its peak, like molten jadeite lava covering his entire body!

Immediately, the deep, light-devouring liquid Black Flame erupted with a roar, ascending to the sky! The raging Black Flame twisted upwards, with fine yet brilliant golden lines wildly spreading and entwining on its surface!

"Follow up!"

The hard soil layer and the swarm of insects upon it were ripped apart and blasted away like paper by the furious force! Rocks and soil mixed with shattered insect shells and pungent fluids sprayed everywhere!

The piercing hisses and "click-clack" sounds from outside poured in instantly, like a deathly sound wave breaking loose!

"Roar——!"

Fang Qingyu's figure broke through the blockade, standing atop the ruins.

Black Flame swirling around him, golden patterns shining, like a Demon God returning from Hell!

Dragon Sparrow Calamity Slash emitted an excited hum, its blade devoured by the surging Black Flame, with dazzling dark golden light concentrating at its edge!

"Returning to Silence!!"

A sudden flash of blade light! A black thunderbolt infused with fierce profound black force and destructive liquid Black Flame unleashed itself fiercely! Where the blade passed, the space seemed to be sliced with subtle ripples!

Boom——!!!

The frontline of the rushing insect swarm, a thick wall composed of dozens of Blade-legged Cutters and Corrosive Beetiles, was instantly obliterated, as if thrown into the sun's core!

The violent aftermath of the sword Qi spread out in a fan shape, flinging and tearing apart the swarm further back! It carved out a short-lived, several-meter-wide passage burning with Black Flame amidst the black flood of death!

"Go!!"

Qin Hui and Old Qiao, like two enraged bulls, erupted with earth-shaking roars!

One on each side, they propped up the heavily injured Liu Zheng! Qi Hao and Lv Chen supported the other two nearly exhausted members of Fenghuo Squad! Jiang Wei's small figure was guarded at the core, her gaze calm as water!

The squad, like arrows leaving the string, sprinted desperately along the path cleaved by Fang Qingyu!

"Sssss——!!!"

The insect swarm was enraged by this violent provocation! Sharper, more intense hisses echoed through the sky!

From all directions, like a black tsunami, more insects surged out madly from the gaps in containers, the depths of ruins, and even half-sunken ship cabins! Acid rained down like a storm! Blade legs sliced through the air! Sound Burst Mosquitoes unleashed piercing death sound waves!

Fang Qingyu stood at the front of the team like a black rock, Dragon Sparrow Calamity Slash transformed into Death God's scythe!

"Shocking Dome!" "Extermination!" "Tribulation Ashes!"

The perfected techniques of Thunder Strike Eight Slashes were executed to their extreme!

Each slash carried an unstoppable force and destructive Black Flame!

Where the blade light reached, the insect swarm fell like wheat waves, shattered, and vanished!

At this moment, there was no concern for maintaining any entity intact.

Breaking through was the most crucial task!

Fang Qingyu, with a single sword, carved a bloody path through the endless insect tide, creating a narrow space of survival for his teammates behind!

However, the insect tide was endless! They advanced fearlessly, wave after wave!

No matter how fast Fang Qingyu's blade swung or how strong his power, he couldn't clear all directions instantly! More annoyingly, those Corrosive Beetiles and Sound Burst Mosquitoes with long-range attack abilities hid behind the swarm, remotely showering deadly acid and dizzying sound waves towards the team's core!

Ssssss——

Several streaks of ghastly green acid shot past Fang Qingyu's defense line, aimed straight at the injured Qi Hao and Lv Chen!

"Watch out!" Qin Hui's eyes widened, wanting to help but entangled by several Earthworms!

At this critical moment.

"Hmph!"

Jiang Wei, always protected in the center, let out an angered snort! Her small body took a sudden step forward!

Buzz——!

An invisible force field, overbearing and fierce with a will to burn all, erupted from her as its center! The orange-red flame, like a scorching barrier distorting the air, expanded instantly!

Ssssss——!!!

The flying acid sizzled violently upon contact with this invisible heatwave, rapidly charring and evaporating into pungent white smoke! Several approaching Sound Burst Mosquitoes hit the invisible fiery wall, their wings instantly charred and curled, wailing as they fell!

Jiang Wei's small face turned slightly pale, her body swaying a bit, evidently, this wide-range defense heavily consumed her strength.

"Hold on! Sister Jiang!" Old Qiao roared, smashing a Blade-legged Insect attempting a sneak attack with his fist.

But the insect swarm's offensive grew even more frenzied!

They seemed agitated by Jiang Wei's flame force field, more long-range attacks, and fearlessly close-combat insects lunging in from various tricky angles!

Jiang Wei's force field fluctuated intensely, its range forced to contract, her small face growing paler.

"This won't work! Sister Jiang can't hold on much longer!" Qi Hao shouted, his voice trembling with urgency as he noticed Jiang Wei's condition.

Qin Hui and Old Qiao also bore new wounds, their speed inevitably slowed by carrying the injured, and they were about to be enwrapped once more by the surging insect tide!

Fang Qingyu shattered three lunging Blade-legged Insects with a slash, his gaze sweeping over Jiang Wei's pale face and the increasingly insane insect swarm around them, then glanced at Dragon Sparrow Calamity Slash in his hand, constantly humming as if yearning for something.

Deep in his eyes, a sliver of resolute clarity flashed.

"Everyone! Gather close to me! Stick right behind me!"

Fang Qingyu's shout exploded like a thunderclap, overwhelming the insect swarm's hisses, "Xiaojiang! Withdraw your strength! Protect them! From here on... leave it to me!!"

Hearing this, Jiang Wei hesitated not a bit, instantly retracting the scorching force field, her small body stumbling, swiftly supported by the quick-handed Lv Chen.
