The Path to Becoming Immortal

What is particularly eye-catching is the huge and daunting mouthparts on the pointed head. The whole head can bloom like a petal, but it is full of sharp teeth.

So far, Ning Ping doesn't know much about this place and these insects.

The only thing he has figured out is that the strength of these insects can be judged by how many pairs of limbs they have.

The least is two pairs, and the most he has encountered so far is four pairs, and their size is also much larger.

Although they look similar on the surface, there is a huge difference in strength.

For insects with two pairs of limbs, Ning Ping named them insect soldiers, and he can easily kill them.

Those with three pairs of limbs are called insect generals, which is a bit difficult. If there are too many, he will definitely run away.

Those with four pairs of limbs are called insect kings. This is relatively rare. In a group, there is usually only one, or at most two or three.

But as long as he sees them, Ning Ping basically runs as far as he can.

This insect king is too difficult to deal with. Not only is he extremely powerful, but his shell is also so hard that it makes people's teeth ache. He can't break it at all, let alone kill him.

He was injured several times, all by this guy.

For example, this time, there was an insect king in the insect swarm, so he also had some injuries on his body.

Moreover, these insects are extremely sensitive to breath, and it is often difficult for them to escape when they are chased.

One of the important reasons is that the gravity here is extremely large. Even if he tries his best to drive it, it is only a few hundred feet high.

And the energy consumption is also very large. When it reaches a height of hundreds of feet, the basic immortal energy will be consumed.

Even in daily actions, a lot of immortal energy is consumed to resist this terrifying gravity.

It is difficult for him to deal with the insect king, and the excessive consumption is also a major reason.

Fortunately, these insects who only know how to kill are not very smart, and their intelligence is even so low that they feel that they only have the instinct to kill.

It may also be because of this strange environment that those strange insects were born.

But later, he found a way, which was to use the boulders in the wilderness to avoid.

The boulders seemed to have a certain effect of isolating the breath, making it difficult for those insects to detect it for a while.

Of course, this is not absolute. If the distance is close enough, those insects can still find themselves.

For example... this time.

There were more and more insects, and they kept circling around the hill, because Ning Ping had flown from here to a high place and escaped.

But as the number of insects increased, some of them were squeezed to the boulder where Ning Ping was.

"What bad luck! Why are there so many of them following... It seems that I really have to fight hard this time..."

Ning Ping was taking advantage of the protection of the boulder at this time and was recovering with all his strength.

The spiritual energy of the heaven and earth here is not strong, and it can even be regarded as thin, but at least it can be recovered a little.

As the distance approached, there was finally an insect, whose petal-like mouthparts suddenly split open, and hissed at the boulder where Ning Ping was.

"Hiss..."

"Damn, that's so ugly!"

Ning Ping attacked without hesitation after his whereabouts were exposed.

A flash of black light appeared, and the ink knife directly pierced into the ugly mouthparts.

"Puff..."

With a slight sound, the hissing sound stopped, and the insect fell to the ground.

After Ning Ping stabbed out a sword, he did not retreat but advanced directly into the insect swarm.

The sword formation unfolded, turning into sword lights that swept around.

"Ding Ding Ding..."

A series of rapid ding sounds came out, and a large number of insects fell down, and the entire insect swarm instantly rioted.

"Hiss hiss hiss..."A large group of black insects rushed towards Ning Ping frantically in an instant.

A bug king, whose body size was much larger than other bugs, also turned into an almost undetectable black shadow and rushed over.

The mouthparts of insects and the connection between the shell, that is, the joints, are weak points, and basically one strike is effective.

Ning Ping's sword energy insect soldiers can be dealt with, but it is more difficult to deal with insect generals.

Unless you pierce directly into the mouthparts, or the ink knife itself directly pierces into the weak point.

As for the insect king, the sharp thorns in that guy's mouth are very long and extremely hard, and they are often blocked before they pierce into the opponent's body.

However, it is also extremely difficult to pierce the opponent's mouthparts, because the opponent's speed is too fast.

Then, Ning Ping's body turned into a series of phantoms, constantly shuttling through the insect swarm.

The ink knife in his hand also kept stabbing.

After the sword energy was used once to cause the insect swarm to riot, it also stopped.

Now only the body skills and physical strength are used, because the immortal energy in the body needs to be preserved as much as possible.

And even if he attacks, he will aim at the insect general, and those insect soldiers will become obstacles for him to block the insect king.

Ning Ping kept moving around, and the ink knife in his hand kept stabbing.

This time he attacked decisively, and he saw that there was only one insect king hiding in the insect swarm.

After being forced back by the Insect King several times before, Ning Ping also thought of some ways to deal with it, and he wanted to test it out today.

Sure enough, the speed of the Insect King, which was extremely fast, was greatly disturbed in the chaotic swarm of insects.

Originally, his own kind was restrained in the melee at this moment, and could not get close to Ning Ping at all.

Fortunately, these insects did not know magic, they could only rush up and fight with their bodies.

This also gave Ning Ping a lot of room to maneuver.

Ning Ping moved quickly, making his breath spread over a large area.

Moreover, he consciously stayed away from the insect king and brought the chaos to other insect swarms.

"Hiss, hiss, hiss..."

"Puff, puff, puff..."

In this chaos, every time Ning Ping stabbed out the ink knife, he would basically harvest an insect general, which was extremely neat and tidy.

This also made the insect king gradually go crazy.

"Hiss, hiss, hiss..."

The insect king roared to the sky after he couldn't get close to Ning Ping.

A pair of alien eyes shot out two rays of light that seemed to be real, and there was monstrous anger in his eyes.

It was seen dancing with four pairs of huge limbs, following Ning Ping in the insect swarm.

Countless insects were thrown away, or directly turned into a pile of black mist under its collision.

Only a few insect generals could survive its madness by chance.

But what was shocking was that the insects had no abnormal reaction to the cannibalism, and even became more excited.

"Oh, I seem to have miscalculated this point..."

Looking at the crazy insects, Ning Ping couldn't help but frowned slightly, and a bitter smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Then, Ning Ping made a new discovery.

Those insects killed by himself or by the insect king were eaten by other insects.
