Faced with the Demon Insect King, Qi Ping felt that he could never be too cautious.
The Li Fire Crow absolutely cannot encounter any mishaps either.
So before taking action, continuously utilizing the High-speed Ring-cutting Bees to deplete the Demon Insect King's power and force it to reveal its trump cards is very necessary.
Upon receiving Qi Ping's orders, the High-speed Ring-cutting Bees immediately formed a battle array in groups of thirty, attacking the Demon Insect King continuously and systematically from all directions.
Meanwhile, within the cave, the Demon Insect King was already feeling mentally strained.
It had relentlessly attempted to use its Enslavement Talent multiple times without successfully enslaving even a single bee, not to mention just being disturbed by three small bees, which was no more severe than a mosquito bite to it.
Despite its intense anger, there was little it could do.
After all, why is the Demon Insect King trapped by the array and bullied by the small bees?
But now these bees have become more aggressive, thirty bees surrounded it and chopped!
Although it had ample Spiritual Qi and Insect Corpse Essence to replenish itself, allowing it to basically recover, its innate instincts as the Demon Insect King still felt violated, causing its fierce nature to be completely unleashed.
A massive Divine Thought power suddenly swept out from the Demon Insect King.
This time, the Demon Insect King didn't choose to enslave using its Divine Thought power but instead forcibly crushed the consciousness of the thirty High-speed Ring-cutting Bees with it!
Though its inherited memory hadn't awakened the Divine Soul Attack talent, for it, with its strong Divine Soul talent and ability to control divine soul to enslave demonic insects, this level of divine soul attack means was naturally easy.
Externally, Qi Ping felt the disappearance of the aura of the thirty High-speed Ring-cutting Bees, causing his expression to suddenly darken.
"The Demon Insect King indeed has other methods!"
Thus, Qi Ping immediately ordered the other surviving bees to report on the Demon Insect King's state changes.
Soon, Qi Ping got the answer.
"A bit weary, huh? Seems like it still worked..."
Once confirmed effective, Qi Ping ordered again:
"Switch to twenty bees per group, attack with full force, don't give the Demon Insect King any chance to breathe!"
Qi Ping mentally committed, further solidifying his determination to take down the Demon Insect King.
If after the Foundation Establishment, he could let the bee swarm successfully undergo transformation utilizing the bloodline of the demonic insect, acquiring corresponding physical talents or divine soul talents, the potential of the swarm would reach an unparalleled level.
Using the Demon Insect King's bloodline as resources for breeding spirit insects, how many Insect-Controlling Cultivators can manage this?
At this point, Qi Ping also called Yaya over and informed it about the internal situation.
"Yaya, I recall the Lifebound Spirit Fire of the Golden Crow Bloodline deals considerable damage to divine souls and its effectiveness in defending against divine soul attacks should also be satisfactory, right?"
Although the Lifebound Spirit Fire of Yang Fire Crow or Li Fire Crow doesn't affect the soul, if a divine soul detaches and gets burned by this Lifebound Spirit Fire, the result would be extremely tragic.
With such effects, using it to defend against the Demon Insect King's divine soul attacks should be quite useful as well.
"Gaa gaa... (Indeed, boss!)"
"Gaa gaa... (As long as I cover my body with my Lifebound Spirit Fire, any regular divine soul attacks daring to touch me will suffer!)"
"Mm, that's good then!"
Hearing this answer, Qi Ping felt somewhat relieved.
Even if the Demon Insect King still retains some strength later, the Lifebound Spirit Fire of Li Fire Crow can still provide excellent defense against the Demon Insect King's spiritual sense attacks.
"Yaya, when you go down later don't worry about excessive depletion, if you can't kill it in one go, come back to recover and then continue down, I will ensure the bees conduct uninterrupted harassment attacks during this..."
"Try to attack the Demon Insect King's head as much as possible, preserve the flesh on the body if you can, I want them to extract the bloodline..."
After some thought, Qi Ping further supplemented.
Records show that not even Golden Core and Nascent Soul stage cultivators are exempt from dying at the hands of Demon Insect Kings with lower realms than them, so cautious handling of such adversaries is never excessive.
"Gaa gaa... (Sure, boss!)" Yaya nodded solemnly in agreement.
It too understood the significance of the enemy this time.
After battling fearlessly, with more than ten consecutive waves of attacks, amid the relentless interference and assaults, the Demon Insect King finally fell into a weary state.
Qi Ping no longer hesitated at this moment, directly dispatching the Li Fire Crow to launch an attack.
...
At this moment within the cave, the Demon Insect King felt it was nearly going insane; having just been birthed not long ago, and now tormented to such a state by several small bees.
It looked violently at those bees in the distance that showed no fear of it, now eager to kill any bee daring to come close without hesitation.
Though such actions consumed it extensively, it could still easily slaughter the swarm of bees.
Yet as it waited for the bees to charge again, a pitch-black figure enveloped in golden-red flames rapidly breached from the cave entrance!
Seeing the figure, a sense of crisis instantly arose from the depths of the Demon Insect King's heart!
This made its entire body tense up.
The bees posed just consumptive exhaustion to it; the Spiritual Origin Stone Pillar and Insect Body Essence could replenish the consumed Spiritual Power, and the Divine Soul Power could gradually recover, so the bees didn't pose a significant threat.
But now, this entering figure is different; merely sensing the powerful aura from the flames made it feel an impending doom.
Without any reaction time, an intense battle erupted directly!
Upon entering, Yaya targeted the position indicated by Qi Ping and directly lunged at the Demon Insect King, launching its most potent killing move.
The Lifebound Spirit Fire transformed into a fiercely powerful and penetrating flame pillar, furiously assaulting and scorching the Demon Insect King's head!
The spots touched by Yaya's Lifebound Spirit Fire began to char swiftly.
At this moment, a sharp and terrible screech rang out.
Enraged frenzy mixed with mortal danger within, the Demon Insect King went completely berserk!
While it realized the incoming threat, its body was trapped by the array, making it unable to dodge or counter with physical power.
Thus, it immediately employed its divine soul power, furiously attacking Yaya, despite knowing Yaya's Lifebound Spirit Fire would damage its divine soul.
In desperation, under the Demon Insect King's life-risking attack, the Lifebound Spirit Fire enveloping Yaya instantly surged with upheaval, with some flames already beginning to extinguish!
This surprised Yaya!
Such fearsome power of spiritual sense attacks from the Demon Insect King!
Considering the Yang Fire Flame on it had been reinforced under Qi Ping's instructions, yet still couldn't withstand it.
If it had rushed in unpreparedly, life or death would truly be uncertain.
Hence, Yaya abandoned all distractions, fiercely mobilizing its bloodline power, enhancing its Lifebound Spirit Fire's strength on itself and in the attack.
Having once lost and regained its bloodline power, Yaya's mastery over its bloodline power utilization had dramatically improved.
Under the boost of bloodline power, Yaya's Lifebound Spirit Fire suddenly surged ferociously.
The initially faltering, fading Lifebound Spirit Fire on its body became unbelievably stable, while the power of the flame emitted from Yaya's beak drastically soared immediately!
Facing this sight, the Demon Insect King felt utterly despair!
The intensity of this crow before it was overwhelmingly beyond imagination, especially the formidable energy wielded by the Lifebound Spirit Fire was astonishingly frightening.
To make matters worse, it is newly birthed, its physical body trapped by the array, leaving it only with its Divine Soul power, having consumed considerably fighting with the bees earlier.
No matter its efforts to exert, it is challenging to further enhance its divine soul power, ultimately succumbing in immense pain and unwillingness to having its head pierced through by a flame pillar...
