Chapter 115: Accident

"Quick! Faster!" Tang Yun shouted loudly.

Just then, a crisp sound came from the roots of the old tree, and a huge crack appeared on the trunk.

"Holy crap!" Tang Tian exclaimed, his feet slipped violently, and he almost fell off the trunk.

The Holy Son was quick-witted, grabbed Tang Tian's arm, and pulled him back.

"Be careful!" The Holy Son said in a low voice, his face solemn.

Lin Xiyue screamed in fright, hugged the trunk tightly, and dared not move.

Tang Yun gritted his teeth and accelerated his downward climbing speed.

The crack grew larger, and the shaking of the old tree became more violent, and it could break completely at any time.

Seeing that Tang Yun and the others were about to escape, the Worm King hit the old tree even more crazily, letting out deafening roars.

"Quick! Jump!" Tang Yun suddenly shouted.

Below was a dense jungle, although he didn't know how deep it was, there was no other choice now.

Tang Yun let go first, jumped down.

Lin Xiyue followed closely and also jumped down.

"Damn!" Tang Tian let out a strange cry and followed suit.

The Holy Son took one last look at the Worm King, a flash of determination in his eyes, and also jumped down.

Seeing Tang Yun and the others jump down, the Worm King let out an unwilling roar, and its huge body also fell, crashing into the jungle with a loud noise.

After landing, Tang Yun felt severe pain all over his body, his eyes went black, and he lost consciousness.

I don't know how long it had been, Tang Yun slowly opened his eyes and found himself lying on a soft bed.

"You're awake?" A gentle voice came.

Tang Yun turned his head and saw Lin Xiyue sitting by the bed, looking at him with concern.

"I... where am I?" Tang Yun struggled to sit up, but felt weak all over.

"This is a small village at the foot of the mountain, we were saved by the villagers." Lin Xiyue explained.

"Where are the Holy Son and Tang Tian?" Tang Yun asked.

"They are also fine, resting in the next room." Lin Xiyue said.

"Then... what about the Worm King?" Tang Yun asked again.

Lin Xiyue's face changed, and she said, "The Worm King... the Worm King also fell down, but it seems to have been seriously injured and escaped into the deep mountains."

Hearing this, Tang Yun felt a little relieved.

"By the way, when you were unconscious, I found a strange crystal on you, emitting a faint light." As Lin Xiyue said this, she took out a crystal-clear crystal from her bosom and handed it to Tang Yun.

Tang Yun took the crystal and examined it.

This crystal was hexagonal, completely transparent, and some kind of liquid seemed to be flowing inside, emitting a faint fragrance.

"What is this?" Tang Yun asked suspiciously.

"I don't know either, but I feel like it seems very important to you." Lin Xiyue said.

Tang Yun held the crystal, and suddenly felt a warm current pouring into his body, and the pain in his body also eased a lot.

"This... this crystal seems to be able to heal my injuries!" Tang Yun said in surprise.

Hearing this, Lin Xiyue also showed a surprised expression.

Just then, a noisy sound suddenly came from outside the door.

"What's going on?" Tang Yun asked.

Lin Xiyue walked to the door, opened it, and saw a group of villagers surrounding the courtyard, pointing at the sky and exclaiming.

"Look! What is that?"

Tang Yun and Lin Xiyue also looked up and saw a huge vortex appearing in the sky, slowly rotating, emitting a strange light.

"That... what is that?" Lin Xiyue asked in horror.

Tang Yun frowned tightly, and an ominous premonition rose in his heart.

"Could it be... that the Insect Race is going to invade again?"

Tang Yun's heart sank, and he gripped the crystal in his hand tightly. The vortex grew larger and larger, as if it were going to swallow the entire sky. A powerful pressure came from the vortex, making everyone unable to breathe.

"Not good! It's the Worm King!" The Holy Son's weak voice came from the next room.

Tang Yun and Lin Xiyue looked at each other, seeing deep fear in each other's eyes.

"It... how did it recover so quickly?" Lin Xiyue asked tremblingly.

Tang Yun did not answer; he stared tightly at the vortex in the sky, thinking of countermeasures quickly in his heart.

"What should we do now?" Lin Xiyue's voice carried a hint of crying.

Tang Yun took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down. "Leave here first! Go to the back of the village!"

Tang Yun supported Lin Xiyue and stumbled out of the room.

Tang Tian and the Holy Son also ran out of the next room, their faces very ugly.

"Damn! Why is this Worm King acting like it took stimulants!" Tang Tian cursed.

The Holy Son's face was pale, his lips trembling slightly, obviously having been greatly frightened.

The four of them stumbled to the back of the village, where there was a dense forest, which could temporarily hide them from the Worm King's sight.

"Now... what should we do now?" Lin Xiyue's voice carried a hint of despair.

Tang Yun looked around, his brows tightly locked. He knew that they were trapped now, with the Worm King in front and vast mountains behind, there was no way to escape.

Suddenly, the crystal in Tang Yun's hand emitted a dazzling light, illuminating the surrounding forest.

"This... what's going on?" Tang Tian asked in surprise.

Tang Yun looked down at the crystal in his hand, a flash of doubt in his eyes.

Just then, the crystal suddenly flew up, suspended in the air, emitting an increasingly intense light.

The light grew brighter and brighter, illuminating the surrounding forest like daylight.

"Ah! My eyes!" Tang Tian covered his eyes and screamed in pain.

Lin Xiyue and the Holy Son also covered their eyes, not daring to look directly at the crystal's light.

Only Tang Yun, he felt that his eyes were not affected at all, but instead could clearly see the changes inside the crystal.

The liquid inside the crystal began to roll violently, as if something was about to break out of its shell.

Suddenly, the crystal made a crisp sound and cracked a gap.

From the gap, a dazzling light shot out, straight into the sky.

The light shone on the vortex in the sky, and the vortex actually began to shrink slowly.

"This... what is going on?" Lin Xiyue asked in surprise.

Tang Yun did not answer; he stared tightly at the vortex in the sky, his heart full of anticipation.

The vortex grew smaller and smaller, and finally disappeared.

The sky returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.

"The Worm King... the Worm King disappeared?" Tang Tian asked in disbelief.

Tang Yun nodded, his heart also full of doubts.

He didn't know what this crystal was, nor did he know why it possessed such powerful power.

"This crystal... seems to have some connection with the Insect Race..." The Holy Son suddenly spoke.

Tang Yun looked at the Holy Son, a flash of doubt in his eyes. "You... do you know something?"

The Holy Son shook his head and said, "I just have a feeling... this crystal... might be the nemesis of the Insect Race..."

Just then, the crystal suddenly fell from the air and landed in Tang Yun's hand. ===== CHAPTER 116 =====
