Chapter 2009 Ironback Centipede!
The poison tide loomed ominously, with toxic mists rolling in a terrifying display.
Several figures dashed within the poison tide, exuding powerful auras that made the venomous star beasts in the vicinity retreat and dare not approach.
At the forefront was a figure enveloped in a radiant golden glow.
The golden light sometimes scattered into tiny specks, and at other times, it faintly transformed into the image of a divine golden phoenix, shrouding Wang Teng. He appeared as if he had become a real golden phoenix.
The golden light pushed away all the poisonous mists around him, making them unable to come close.
Behind him, a few individuals closely followed, their faces filled with astonishment.
“Spiritual power!”
Wan Dong’s expression subtly changed. He had assumed that Wang Teng had used all his strength to defeat him.
But now, seeing Wang Teng employ his spiritual power, he realized he had never truly understood the young man before him.
Astonishment appeared in Cob’s eyes as he looked at Wang Teng. He couldn’t fathom just how strong this young man’s talent was. He couldn’t help but feel a hint of jealousy.
The other party was much younger than him but his overwhelming strength indicated that his talent far exceeded theirs.
Such talent was a rare find even within the Stellar Academies.
The queen of the snakemen race was astounded too, but her thoughts went deeper.
The golden light was clearly an item left behind by the heaven-realm divine spirit master he had killed earlier, and yet, it was now in Wang Teng’s possession.
He wielded it as if he had mastered the control of the weapon completely.
This was intriguing.
Wang Teng had only obtained these weapons a few days ago, yet he had mastered them completely. He displayed no hint of clumsiness when using it.
His talent was astonishing!
The queen of the snakemen race was even more certain that this person was extraordinary.
Gikdor glanced at Wang Teng, feeling shocked but not dwelling on it too long. Instead, he surveyed their surroundings, observing the situation.
The dense, poisonous mist in the area grew thicker, making it increasingly uncomfortable for them.
The group had to release their Force to form protective shields, which were continuously eroded by the poisonous gas.
After flying for some time, the weaker star beasts could no longer be seen. They were now surrounded by mid-tier imperial-level star beasts.
These creatures were aggressive, charging at them from time to time, forcing the group to expend their energy to fend them off.
The entire journey was incredibly draining!
Even heaven-stage formidable warriors couldn’t persist in such an environment for long.
“Wang Teng, where are we going?” Wan Dong and the others noticed the situation and couldn’t help but ask.
“We’re here!” Wang Teng suddenly stopped in his tracks, floating in the mist, and gazed ahead.
Wan Dong and the others were taken aback.
They had just asked, and now they were already here.
They regretted asking, as it made them seem impatient.
“Be careful!” Wang Teng glanced at everyone and warned.
Wan Dong and the others immediately became vigilant.
In this thick mist, it was difficult for them to sense their surroundings. The denser the mist, the harder it was to sense anything.
Wang Teng wouldn’t give them warnings without reason.
According to their calculations, they were approaching the atmosphere of Scorpion King Star.
At such a high altitude, the poison mist persisted. The presence of star beasts here, if any, would be extremely terrifying.
These geniuses from the Stellar Academies, although full of pride, were not foolish. They quickly realized the implications.
Just then, the mist in front of them began to churn violently, and massive black shadows emerged, causing alarm.
“What is that?” Wan Dong exclaimed.
The others’ faces turned serious, each channeling their Force and peering forward.
The shadows eventually became visible, and they were none other than enormous, grotesque centipede-like star beasts, with their countless legs wriggling, sending shivers down their spines.
“High-tier imperial-level star beasts! There are so many of them!” Cob exclaimed grimly.
The others also wore similarly uneasy expressions. While they were prepared for danger, they had never anticipated encountering so many high-tier imperial-level star beasts.
Hiss…
The incessant, piercing hisses filled the air, carrying a menacing undertone, as if they intended to intimidate the group.
“Human martial warriors, leave!”
Suddenly, a spiritual fluctuation was felt.
Wang Teng wasn’t surprised. High-tier imperial-level star beasts exhibited a degree of intelligence, some could speak when they reached the emperor level, while others might be more unique and, even when they reached the Imperial level, couldn’t speak aloud. However, they could communicate through spiritual fluctuations.
