Chapter 1665

Hum—!!!

Ahead, three thousand kilometers away, the void suddenly tore open.

A dark purple wormhole vortex spun wildly.

A vast, ferocious pressure surged forth like a mountain flood!

"Two human beings of Immortal Stage One.

How dare you fly boldly through the Fourth Star Zone? Seek death!"

A piercing screech exploded from deep within the wormhole, ripping through the sky!

The next instant,

A towering, almost exaggerated figure stepped out from the vortex.

It was an Immortal Stage Three insect empress!

She stood eight meters tall, her skin a lustrous blend of dark gold and purple-black.

Her features were seductively grotesque, her icy eyes brimming with bloodthirsty killing intent.

"Ssshhrrrr—!!!"

She let out a deafening shriek toward the heavens, her abdomen suddenly blazing with blinding purple light!

Hum—

The void tore apart in vast sheets.

Tens of thousands of dark wormholes unfolded instantly, as if the starry sky had opened countless abyssal eyes!

The next instant, a black tide surged forth!

Not tens of thousands, not hundreds of thousands.

But a dense, endless flood of insect horde!

Insect warriors poured out like black waterfalls, their carapaces clashing like rain pounding metal!

The most terrifying part was—

At the forefront of the insect horde stood four figures radiating overwhelming power!

Their forms varied: some like giant scorpions, others like centipedes, still others resembling mantises.

But all shared the same trait: divine radiance of the Immortal Stage clung to their bodies, their compound eyes burning with cold killing intent!

They were four Immortal Stage One insect warriors!

Behind them stretched an endless army of Cosmic Stage insect troops.

Their number had shattered three million!

"Finally arrived! And this many?!"

Xu Jingming's heart surged with joy.

Leaving aside those four Immortal Stage insect warriors,

just these three million Cosmic Stage insect soldiers—

outnumbered the insect horde summoned by the hundred-odd Cosmic Peak insects in the Starfall Secret Realm!

And all were uniformly Cosmic High Stage, not a single low-grade Cosmic Stage among them!

"Indeed, coming to the Seven Stars Continent was right!"

Xu Jingming's eyes blazed with brilliant light,

and he sharply turned his head toward the tall, slender figure beside him:

"Xue'er, don't move. Let me handle this!"

Lin Qianxue blinked in slight surprise.

She had already forged a supreme divine body, her lightning primordial source recognized by the universe.

She could still fight against this Immortal Stage Three insect empress.

But seeing the fierce battle-lust in Xu Jingming's eyes,

she merely gave a slight nod, her crisp voice laced with trust:

"Alright. Be careful."

Her long, straight jade legs stepped back half a pace.

The black battle robe clung to her perfect curves.

She hung motionless in midair, like a cold, elegant goddess of ice and snow.

"Humans! Prepare to die!"

The insect empress shrieked; the four Immortal Stage One insect warriors charged forward at once!

They tore through the void.

Claws, venomous stingers, and bony blades, wielding destructive cosmic laws, sealed every escape route for Xu Jingming!

Behind them, the three million insect troops roared in unison.

The soundwave shook the heavens, surging like a cataclysmic flood!

This was the insect race!

Beings unbeatable at their own stage.

With their horde tactics, they could even fight across one or two stages!

"No matter how many there are—they're still nothing but ants!"

Yet Xu Jingming merely sneered.

He raised his right hand, and with a slight clench toward the insect horde ahead—

Boom—!!!

His entire body suddenly erupted in dazzling golden-green Lei Guang!

That Lei Guang blazed like a great sun.

Each strand contained the primordial essences of violent lightning, destruction, and life!

T1-level Yaori Shenlei!

Release!

The next instant, the heavens tore open!

A colossal golden-green Lei Zhu, as thick as a mountain, roared down from the ninth heavens!

As the Lei Zhu fell, it began to violently split and spread.

It transformed into an endless sea of golden Lei Hai!

Boom—!!!!

The Lei Hai overturned, and heaven and earth resonated as one!

Blinding Jin Guang bathed the entire mountain range in a golden-green radiance.

The entire Lei Hai, with the intent to obliterate all, slammed violently into the center of the insectoid army!

"This power?! How is this possible for a Eternal-Life cultivator?!"

The Insect Queen's expression changed instantly; her deep-blue compound eyes first revealed shock!

"All warriors! Unite in defense!"

She shrieked, her mental waves surging like a tidal wave across the battlefield!

Hum—!!!!

Three million insectoid warriors simultaneously unleashed their Yuan energy!

Countless threads of lawlight surged into the sky.

In midair, they wove and merged into a lawshield over ten thousand kilometers in diameter!

The shield's surface shimmered with radiant light, radiating a terrifying defensive aura.

The shield, jointly upheld by a million insectoid warriors, was strong enough to withstand a direct strike from an Eternal-Life Stage Four!

Yet—

"Crack."

The instant the Lei Hai struck, a crisp snapping sound echoed from the shield's center.

Immediately, cracks spread wildly like a spiderweb!

"No… impossible!"

Under the Insect Queen's despairing gaze,

that shield, forged from the combined Yuan energy of three million cosmic insectoid warriors,

held for less than two seconds before exploding violently!

Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle! ……

The moment the shield shattered, the Yaori Shenlei surged straight through!

The golden Lei Hai raged like a world-ending mill, mercilessly reaping the lives of the insectoid warriors!

"Sssssao—!!!!"

"Roar—!!!!"

Piercing screams echoed across heaven and earth!

Vast swathes of insectoid warriors vanished in the Lei Hai, their carapaces shattering, bodily fluids spraying!

Blackened remains rained down, piling into mounds several meters high on the ground!

Massacre!

This was a one-sided massacre!

'Ding! Slain one Cosmic Stage Seven Blade-Worm. Source Points +270,000!'

'Ding! Slain one Cosmic Stage Eight Ripper. Source Points +350,000!'

'Ding! Slain one Cosmic Stage Nine Corruptor. Source Points +480,000!'

'......'

System alerts flooded Xu Jingming's mind in a relentless stream!

His Source Points surged at an unprecedented rate!

In barely three breaths, they broke five hundred billion! One trillion! Two trillion!

"Thrilling! So thrilling!"

Xu Jingming trembled with excitement, his eyes blazing with intense Lei Guang like the sun!

This was only the beginning!

"Storm of Furious Thunder!"

He growled, his right hand gripping the air as if seizing the thunderous authority over heaven and earth!

Boom—!!!!

Heaven and earth shifted again!

The void above Xu Jingming suddenly twisted.

Countless golden thunderbolts writhed like dragons and snakes, wildly converging!

In an instant,

a terrifying thunderstorm tornado, over three thousand kilometers in diameter,

roared into formation, reaching from heaven to earth.

That tornado was entirely composed of Doushen Shenlei, with golden Lei Guang flickering along its edges.

The instant it took shape, its destructive suction forcibly dragged tens of thousands of nearby Zerg warriors into itself, grinding them to powder!

"This is?!"

The Zerg Queen's pupils contracted sharply, and an unprecedented sense of mortal peril surged in her heart!

"Damn it!

A mere first-tier Eternal Life cultivator — how could he possibly be this strong?!

Burn the divine body! Go all out!"

She let out a piercing shriek, and the dark-purple carapace covering her erupted with blinding radiance!

Her life force burned like a volcanic eruption.

Her aura climbed steadily, instantly breaching the limit of third-tier Eternal Life!

The four first-tier Eternal Life Zerg warriors also burned their divine bodies at the same time.

Transforming into four streams of light, they charged ferociously toward the thunderstorm tornado!

"A death throes struggle."

Xu Jingming shook his head indifferently and gently pushed forward with his right hand.

"Go."

The thunderstorm tornado was like a world-destroying behemoth possessed of life.

It slammed brutally toward the Zerg Queen and the four Eternal Life warriors!

"BOOM——!!!"

The deafening crash of impact echoed across heaven and earth!

Dark-purple divine light clashed madly against gold-green Lei Ting.

The shockwave swept outward like a tsunami, plowing trenches a hundred meters deep into the ground!

"Aaaah——!!!"

The Zerg Queen shrieked miserably, her carapace—strengthened by burning her divine body—shattering inch by inch within the thunderstorm!

The four Eternal Life warriors fared even worse.

Holding out for only a single breath, they were utterly devoured by the Lei Ting, their divine bodies annihilated!
