Is it because of the extremely high proficiency?
Or is this Kongkong Maggot too special?
Mingxi couldn't determine for now.
She felt a bit fortunate.
If she hadn't taken advantage of the Kongkong Maggot's momentary lapse to swiftly and accurately destroy one of its arms, this battle might have been even more perilous.
Mingxi dared not relax further, becoming even more vigilant.
Even a lion uses its full strength when hunting a rabbit; this Kongkong Maggot, having suffered a great loss, had clearly realized this point!
"Fly high! It's Angry Phosphor Powder!"
Just as she started to recover, Mingxi noticed the scattered black-gold phosphor powder.
Angry Phosphor Powder, a mid-level insect-type skill, accumulates angry power to release phosphor powder; inhaling or touching the powder causes corrosive damage.
Generally, the stronger the anger, the greater the corrosive power of the phosphor powder.
Golden Yuanbao and Little Silver Flower reacted very quickly, but still got a lot of phosphor powder on them.
"Sizzle."
Golden Yuanbao's wings and Little Silver Flower's Dragon Tail both showed very obvious corrosive marks.
Mingxi, however, was temporarily safe.
But the consumption of the Two-Worlds Rotation Platform clearly intensified, almost equivalent to enduring the Bloodthirsty Blood-Crushing Scorpion's strongest attack.
This Kongkong Maggot was indeed very sinister.
Mingxi speculated that it might not be far from evolving.
This was absolutely not a good thing!
What if this Kongkong Maggot was overly stimulated and underwent an extreme breakthrough, evolving on the spot? How would she handle that?
And this situation truly could happen.
The Kongkong Baby Maggot's evolution method is very simple: devour its kin, accumulate energy, devour its kin, accumulate energy...
When the energy value reaches the level limit, devour its kin again, and break through to evolve!
No other conditions needed, no need to prepare various materials.
A very simple and crude evolution method.
Mingxi was not sure if this Kongkong Maggot's energy value had reached its limit, but even if it hadn't, the difference shouldn't be significant.
Therefore, they had to finish the fight quickly.
"Golden Yuanbao, Wind Dragon Twister."
Angry Phosphor Powder has a long-lasting effect; as long as the powder remains in the air, the skill will continue to work.
So, besides dodging, it also needed to be dispersed quickly.
A hurricane swept through, and the scattered phosphor powder in the air was completely cleared away.
This scene infuriated the Kongkong Maggot, its antennae on its head trembling, and its mouthparts twitching wildly.
Seeing this, Golden Yuanbao and Little Silver Flower worried it would use Devil's Howl again.
That skill caused too much damage to their Beast Tamers. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
No matter how much humans trained their bodies, they couldn't reach the physique of a Transcendent creature; their tolerance for skills might be less than one-tenth of a pet's.
They absolutely could not let the Kongkong Maggot use Devil's Howl.
So, without waiting for Mingxi's command, Golden Yuanbao and Little Silver Flower began to tacitly target the Kongkong Maggot's mouthparts.
Thunderbird.
Lightning Ball.
Wing Slash.
Dragon Tail.
Dragon Breath.
Wing Control.
None of them cared about their own injuries, coordinating with increasing fluidity.
Using the advantage of air-to-ground combat, when one attracted the Kongkong Maggot's attention, the other would increase the attack intensity.
Skill after skill almost entirely targeted the Kongkong Maggot's mouthparts.
Such dense attacks were highly effective; a large gash was cut into the front part of the Kongkong Maggot's mouth, and its upper tongue was largely eroded by Dragon Breath.
In this situation, it was definitely impossible to use Devil's Howl again.
But Golden Yuanbao and Little Silver Flower's energy consumption was also very high.
Golden Yuanbao was fine; its energy value had already reached the Advanced Level limit, and it had a self-recovery characteristic, so it could sustain itself for a while longer.
Little Silver Flower, however, was not.
Even if it broke through its energy limit due to the eggshell fragments, it only had less than 20,000 energy points, facing a Shi-level Transcendent creature whose energy value might already be 10 million.
It truly was like an ant trying to shake a tree.
So, its current situation was close to running out of ammunition.
Just as Mingxi was preparing to cut into the Time Realm—
The Kongkong Maggot, whose mouthparts were even injured, was already in a state of rage; the demonic patterns on its body suddenly spread wildly, like blooming evil flowers.
The next second, various kinds of insects were seen continuously crawling out from the Kongkong Maggot's lower abdomen.
The insects varied in form and size.
Isoptera, Mantodea, Hemiptera, Orthoptera, Lepidoptera, Diptera...
Almost all insect categories of Transcendent creatures were included.
A scene that would make an entomologist weep with relief.
Skill 【Insect Transformation】.
An earth-tier insect skill, using 80% of one's energy value to transform into physical insect-type Transcendent creatures; their level is random but will not exceed the user's own level; they have no subjective consciousness and are controlled by the main body.
Each insect possesses varying degrees of defense and different attack modes.
For a time, more and more insects appeared in the cave, the scene comparable to the large-scale deployment of Gathering Firefly Bugs just now.
Mingxi almost screamed, "Oh my goodness!"
Insect Transformation was even brought out.
Could this Kongkong Maggot be even more outrageous?
Wasn't Insect Transformation known as the most difficult skill to awaken among insect-types, if not the most difficult?
Wasn't it said that even Saint-level or even Venerable-level beings might not be able to learn it?
Why did it, merely a Shi-level, know it?
Is this reasonable? Is this scientific?
Mingxi had never felt so unlucky as she did at this moment.
This overwhelming bad luck, it's truly overwhelming!
She took a deep breath. Fortunately, she had a cheat.
Calming down, she paused the summoning of the Time Realm and said to Golden Yuanbao, "Let's do a wave first."
The 'wave' referred to the strategy used against the Bloodthirsty Blood-Crushing Scorpion earlier: a one-shot combo of Thunderstorm and Thunder God's Wrath.
It was also jokingly called the 'violent cleaner' by Little Silver Flower.
Golden Yuanbao also understood the terror of Insect Transformation, pouring out its immense energy without reservation.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
How does that song go?
Insects fly, flowers sleep, only pairs are beautiful.
This scene before her was very much like the lyrics.
Pairs and pairs of insects instantly turned to dust, a beauty that was °• N 𝑜 v 𝑒 l i g h t •° indeed breathtaking.
Unfortunately, Insect Transformation is a skill; no matter how many are killed, no bonus duration can be obtained.
After Golden Yuanbao collapsed to the ground, Mingxi immediately summoned Lan Yue, who was still unconscious, and at the same time switched her Pet Space to the Time Realm.
Before entering the Time Realm, Mingxi didn't forget to survey the battle situation.
The army of Transcendent creatures created by Insect Transformation was largely annihilated.
But that Kongkong Maggot, aside from being greatly depleted from using Insect Transformation, its body noticeably shrinking by a large margin, and its aura a bit weak, did not fall due to Thunder God's Wrath.
Mingxi could only sigh.
As expected of you, brother, you can still endure this?
Did you learn an Indestructible Golden Body technique?
The limited-grade Leigni encountered during the Limit Tower assessment challenge was simply a pup among pups, a brother among brothers, compared to this Kongkong Maggot.
But no matter how much it could endure, how much longer could it last against a cheat?
After another big healing session in the Time Realm, the three beasts, fully recovered, eagerly rushed out.
Mingxi almost couldn't keep up.
The Time Realm disappeared, but the Kongkong Maggot blinked its dark eyes, stunned.
It stared blankly at the radiant person and three beasts not far away.
