Chapter 453: Chapter 453: The Netherworld Opens Its Eyes, All Beings Capsize (2nd Update)
 

This was an immensely gigantic butterfly whose spread wings even eclipsed the moonlight.

And on the butterfly’s wings, there shockingly grew a pair of eyes.

At this moment, the pair of eyes was slowly opening.

Ah Fei was trembling all over, because he thought of something that had happened a few days ago.

Back then, right after his master died, Ah Fei frantically searched for anything related to demonic insects.

And then, in an ancient tome kept in Miao Immortal Valley, he saw a line.

“When the netherworld awakens, all living beings shall fall.”

The accompanying illustration was of such a butterfly.

At the time, Ah Fei did not take it seriously.

Now, however, he suddenly remembered this matter.

“Don’t let it open its eyes!” Ah Fei shouted.

Before he could finish, Zhou Daniu had already snorted angrily and soared into the sky.

Although he did not know what purpose the butterfly served.

But by its appearance, it was clear it was nothing good.

Since it was not something good, then simply destroy it with one punch!

That was Zhou Daniu’s simple logic,

In an instant, Zhou Daniu, who was shimmering with faint golden light, charged in front of the butterfly and threw a punch.

Boom.

After a loud noise, the butterfly was blasted backward.

And Zhou Daniu was also hurled towards the ground, his body flickering with golden light a few times before it shattered with a great crash.

Then Zhou Daniu opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Cheng Hao and the others were all shocked.

As one of the top combat forces within Fire Phoenix, Zhou Daniu’s strength was evident to all.

But unexpectedly, with a single punch, Zhou Daniu’s Golden Body was broken.

By this time, the butterfly’s eyes had already opened, filled with a cold and extremely evil light, and then it lightly flapped its wings.

Demonic winds arose.

The demonic insects on the ground suddenly started to grow larger.

In the blink of an eye, all these demonic insects had more than doubled in size, and their offences became even stronger.

The pressure on the members of Fire Phoenix surged dramatically.

A moment later.

Sun Ling, who had emerged from the void, was struck in the back by a Giant Scorpion’s tail, and was directly knocked away; if not for Cheng Hao leaping to catch Sun Ling, this blow might have severely injured him.

In just the time it took to brew a cup of tea since the butterfly appeared, Fire Phoenix, which had fought for a whole day without sustaining any injuries, now had two wounded members.

What was even more terrifying was,

They could hardly defeat these demonic insects, but as long as they weren’t thoroughly crushed into dust, in an instant, these demonic insects would begin to rapidly recover.

It was as if they were undead, relentlessly entangling you without end.

“We must eliminate that butterfly, or else these demonic insects will only grow stronger as they fight!” Ah Fei shouted.

Cheng Hao also understood this principle, a resolute look flashed in his eyes, and then with a leap, he reached midair.

Among all the people in Fire Phoenix, the Nine-Star Tyrant Emperor Art he practiced was the most powerful, and naturally his Cultivation Level was the highest.

Cheng Hao knew the outcome of the battle hinged on this moment, so he gathered all his Cultivation Level and forcefully shouted.

“Nine Stars Seal!”

Then in the night sky, nine enormous stars suddenly appeared, dazzling and as brilliant as nine diamonds.

From these nine stars, nine beams of starlight were emitted, forming a huge towering seal that smashed directly towards the butterfly.

This strange butterfly seemed to sense the severity of this attack, its wings slightly moving as it tried to dodge.

But once the Nine Stars Seal was cast, the space around the butterfly was firmly sealed, leaving it with no place to escape.

Boom.

The Nine Stars Seal struck the butterfly.

The force of the blow was so great that it ground one of the butterfly’s wings to powder.

Thus only one eye remained.

The monster insect in the center of the arena instantly shrank in size.

Cheng Hao’s spirits soared, and with a flip of his hand, he was about to blast another Nine Stars Seal.

But just at that moment, the butterfly let out an excruciatingly sharp and piercing scream.

This sound was so unpleasant that many people covered their ears, their faces showing pain.

As the core of the attack, Cheng Hao was also turned pale by the sound, and even the movement of his hands slowed down considerably.

It was this gap.

The butterfly freed itself from the constraint of the qi and transformed into a streak of light, heading straight for Cheng Hao.

At that moment, Cheng Hao was completely stiff, without any power to fight back.

Zou Yi and the others were shocked and wanted to go to the rescue, but it was too late to save him.

Just then, a gigantic crossbow arrow flew in like lightning and hit the butterfly directly.

The force of the arrow was so great it even carried the butterfly away.

Boom.

The arrowhead that had pierced into the butterfly’s body now exploded, adding another layer of injury to the butterfly.

It was An Qing!

The crowd turned their heads and saw An Qing holding a huge crossbow, her face also filled with seriousness.

Her arrow had used up all the energy stored in the crossbow, but even so, she had not managed to kill the butterfly.

Fury filled the only remaining eye of the butterfly as it stared fixedly at An Qing, let out a roar of rage, and abandoned Cheng Hao to rush straight at An Qing.

“No!”

Cheng Hao’s face was filled with shock, and despite the lingering numbness in his body from the paralysis, he exerted all his strength to try to stop the butterfly.

But he was still a step too slow. The butterfly, as quick as a specter, reached An Qing, who wore a stunned expression on her face, in the blink of an eye.

Just then, Zhang Chu suddenly appeared, roaring, “Evil creature, die!”

Then, a sharp sword light flashed.

Crack.

Another half of the butterfly’s wing was chopped off, and even its eye was cut through, leaving behind only half a pupil, making it look even more eerie.

The butterfly let out a painful roar, and a dark glow struck out, blasting the nearly unconscious Zhang Chu, who had forcibly used the Old Monarch Sword, away.

Then, still relentless, it continued to charge at An Qing while spitting out another dark glow, which engulfed her.

“No!”

The people of the Fire Phoenix let out roars of extreme rage.

But just at that moment, a piercing white light suddenly appeared on An Qing, who was covered by the dark glow.

The butterfly, which had thought it was assured of victory, trembled violently at the appearance of this white light and turned to flee.

But the white light, which was initially no more than as thick as a bowl, suddenly spread out and enveloped the butterfly from behind.

Upon contact with the white light, the butterfly let out an ear-splitting scream.

The scream was full of fear.

Then, the white light corroded it, and the butterfly turned to ash in an instant.

At the same time, the white light spread out completely, sweeping away all the monster insects in the area.

In the blink of an eye.

The monster insects that were just now so formidable had all turned to ash.

The crowd watched this scene in dumbfounded silence.

Finally, the white light faded!

An Qing, who was standing on top of an off-road vehicle, became visible.

The members of Fire Phoenix heaved a sigh of relief, grateful that An Qing was alright.

But the next second.

An Qing’s face turned pale, and she slowly fell backward.

Cheng Hao immediately rushed over and caught An Qing, gently placing her on the ground.

An Qing’s eyes were tightly closed at this point, and her breathing was very weak.

Everyone was stunned.

Especially the members of Fire Phoenix, whose eyes gradually turned blood-red.
