Chapter 94 9 Netherworld Scorpion

"Be careful!"

Lu Xuan let out a low growl and pulled Su Qinghuan to roll to the side.

boom!

The instant the two left their original spot, a thick black beam of light struck the very spot where they had just been standing.

The hard rocky ground was instantly blasted into a bottomless crater, with debris flying everywhere and dust billowing up.

Su Qinghuan looked at the huge pit, her pretty face turning pale.

"What terrifying power!"

If Lu Xuan had reacted even a fraction of a second slower, they would probably both be dead by now.

Then, a deafening roar came from the depths of the cave, shaking the entire underground space violently.

Then, a suffocatingly terrifying pressure surged forth like a tidal wave.

This pressure is several times stronger than that of the previous Mountain-Moving Demon Ape!

"The Heavenly Origin Realm?!"

Lu Xuan's pupils contracted sharply as he stared intently into the depths of the cave.

A massive black scorpion, as large as a small mountain, slowly crawled out.

This giant scorpion was completely black.

Strange purple patterns flow across its carapace.

The two enormous pincers gleamed with a chilling light.

What's most striking is its high-curved tail, with black venom dripping continuously from its stinger.

As soon as the venom hit the ground, it corroded a large crater.

It is extremely poisonous!

"This is... the Nine Netherworld Scorpion!"

Upon seeing this, Su Qinghuan's voice trembled, and despair appeared in her eyes.

"A legendary, highly venomous monster that reaches the Heavenly Origin Realm upon adulthood!"

"Damn it! How did I end up with something like this!"

Lu Xuan's expression was also rather unpleasant.

Although his strength has greatly increased and he now possesses a top-grade spiritual weapon.

However, when facing a true Tianyuan Realm demon beast, without using your trump cards, you still won't have much of a chance of winning.

What's more, this is happening in an underground cave filled with highly toxic substances.

"Squeak, squeak!"

Just then, a burst of dense hissing sounds suddenly came from above their heads.

Lu Xuan looked up and saw that the swarm of Soul-Devouring Poison Spiders, which had retreated, had somehow regrouped and surrounded him again.

It densely covered the cave ceiling and walls.

They completely blocked the entrance the two had come in through.

In front of them are the Nine Netherworld Scorpions of the Heavenly Origin Realm, and behind them are thousands of Soul-Devouring Poisonous Spiders!

This is... a truly desperate situation!

"run!"

Lu Xuan made a decisive decision without any hesitation.

Fighting head-on under these circumstances will only lead to certain death!

He grabbed Su Qinghuan and turned to run wildly towards the other side of the cave.

Although I don't know where it leads, it's still better than staying here and waiting to die.

"roar!"

Seeing its prey trying to escape, the Netherworld Scorpion roared and its massive body became incredibly agile, transforming into a black shadow as it gave chase.

Its speed was astonishing; it closed the distance in the blink of an eye.

"call out!"

The enormous scorpion tail lashed out, aiming straight for Lu Xuan's back.

"Get out of here!"

Lu Xuan roared and turned to parry with his sword.

"clang!"

The Devouring Heaven Sword and the scorpion's tail collided violently, producing a piercing metallic clang.

Lu Xuan felt a tremendous force coming from him, and he was thrown backward, crashing hard into the stone wall, blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.

"Your Highness!"

Su Qinghuan exclaimed in surprise and immediately wanted to step forward to help him up.

"Don't worry about me! Let's go!"

Lu Xuan pushed Su Qinghuan away.

"Squeak squeak squeak!"

At that moment, the swarm of poisonous spiders above their heads also seized the opportunity to launch an attack.

Spider silk rained down, trying to trap the two of them.

"Damn beast!"

A hint of madness flashed in Lu Xuan's eyes. The Primordial Pearl within his body operated wildly, devouring all the surrounding poisonous gas and transforming it into spiritual power to be injected into the Devouring Heaven Sword.

"Haotian Sword Technique, Burn the Heavens!"

A crimson sword aura shot into the sky, burning the countless spider silk threads to ashes.

But this is just a drop in the ocean.

The Netherworld Scorpion closed in again, its massive pincers whistling as they aimed straight for Lu Xuan's waist.

"Let's give it our all!"

A resolute glint flashed in Lu Xuan's eyes.

He bit his tongue and spat out a mouthful of blood essence onto the Devouring Heaven Sword.

"Offer blood to the sword, and slay!"

The Devouring Heaven Sword let out a mournful cry, its blade blazing with crimson light, transforming into a long, blood-red rainbow that slashed towards the enormous pincers.

"boom!"

A terrifying energy storm exploded in the narrow cavern.

Lu Xuan was blasted away again.

This time, he coughed up a mouthful of blood.

The Nine Netherworld Scorpion also had one of its pincers severed by a sword strike, letting out a painful roar and becoming even more ferocious.

It charged at Lu Xuan with a frenzied rage, determined to tear the human who had hurt it to shreds!

At this critical moment, Su Qinghuan suddenly rushed in front of Lu Xuan.

She spread her arms wide, intending to use her own body to shield Lu Xuan from this fatal blow.

Lu Xuan's eyes were bloodshot, and he roared.

"Pure Joy!"

Looking at Su Qinghuan with her arms outstretched, Lu Xuan felt as if his heart had been squeezed tightly.

"Get out of my way!"

With a roar, the Primordial Pearl within his body seemed to sense his anger, and it trembled violently, unleashing an unprecedented burst of pure primordial power.

"Buzz!"

Lu Xuan's eyes turned into pure black.

"what!"

With a low shout, his skin instantly turned dark gold, and he swung the Heaven-Swallowing Sword out with a backhand motion.

It directly shook the falling scorpion tail an inch away!

"Bang!"

Although it was only an inch long, it saved Su Qinghuan's life.

The giant scorpion tail grazed Su Qinghuan's shoulder, sending her flying, but it did not cause any vital injuries.

"puff!"

Su Qinghuan spat out a mouthful of blood, her face deathly pale, but she still endured the excruciating pain and struggled to get up, her long sword pointing fiercely at the Nine Netherworld Scorpion.

"I'm alright... Your Highness... Be careful!"

Upon seeing this, Lu Xuan felt a great weight lifted from his heart, replaced by an overwhelming killing intent.

"You beast! How dare you hurt her?!"

"Today, I will surely kill you!"

Lu Xuan took a step forward, and the rocks beneath his feet crumbled.

At this moment, with the blessing of the Primordial Pearl and his essence blood, his physical strength has increased several times over.

In retrospect, his exploration of Harmony Pearl was still insufficient.

I only grasped the basics.

If Su Qinghuan had mastered this ability sooner, she wouldn't have had to get hurt!

"roar!"

The Nine Netherworld Scorpion seemed to be intimidated by this aura as well. A hint of fear flashed in its scarlet compound eyes, and it subconsciously took a half step back.

But soon, it became enraged.

How dare a mere Soul Platform Realm ant provoke it, a great demon of the Heavenly Origin Realm!

hiss!

The Nine Netherworld Scorpion let out a sharp hiss, and its massive body trembled violently.

The severed pincers sprouted countless black tentacles from the break, reforming into an even more ferocious black giant pincer.

Wielding its two giant claws, it continued to smash towards Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan neither dodged nor evaded; the black light of the Devouring Heaven Sword in his hand surged, and he charged out to meet the countless claw shadows.

"Well done!"

when!when!when!

The dense clanging of metal echoed through the cave, sparks flying everywhere.

A man and a beast engaged in a fierce battle within this confined space.
