Chapter 151: Terrifying Exotic Beast—Prehistoric Serrated Earthworm (First update, seeking)

Upon smelling the scent of the Bloodline Fruit, the vast majority of Spirit Beasts would lose their reason; they would instinctively want to approach the Bloodline Fruit, yet they would not consume an unripe Bloodline Fruit.

The boar was the sole exception; although its eyes were fanatical, a significant amount of reason still remained, but upon seeing Li Zhangsheng, it could only remain loyal to its instincts and bury its head as it charged toward the Bloodline Fruit.

Caught between choices, it would rather risk danger than face Li Zhangsheng.

However, during the run, the boar deliberately slowed its pace, trailing behind all the wild Spirit Beasts, its fat pig head shaking incessantly as it carefully observed the movements around it.

The boar had already prepared itself; as soon as it put some distance between itself and Li Zhangsheng, it would absolutely flee in the opposite direction of Li Zhangsheng rather than compete for the Bloodline Fruit.

This was a clever pig!

Closer, even closer!

In the span of a few breaths, the fastest Gale Antelope was less than a hundred meters away from the banyan tree; its eyes were fanatical and excited, as if it could occupy the Bloodline Fruit by being the first to arrive.

Suddenly, the Gale Antelope faintly felt the ground vibrating; its heart skipped a beat, and its biological instincts seemed to be warning it that danger was rapidly approaching.

In an instant, the Gale Antelope jumped up subconsciously.

Unfortunately, although its leap was high, it still underestimated the strength of its opponent.

Boom—

Suddenly, a head violently burst out from the ground where the Gale Antelope had been, and with one bite, it swallowed the Gale Antelope.

This was a Spirit Beast shaped like an earthworm, but its size was simply too massive; just the part exposed above ground was over ten meters long, its entire body was crimson, its head was larger than a water vat, and unlike an earthworm, this thing possessed a mouthful of serrated, sharp teeth.

Judging from the part it exposed above ground, the body length of this super-giant earthworm was definitely over 20 meters.

"This... this is a Prehistoric Serrated Earthworm!" Li Zhangsheng subconsciously became nervous; his reaction was extremely fast, and he immediately mounted Aixi, steering Aixi to flee.

Prehistoric Serrated Earthworm: Low-level Exotic Beast, Low-level Commander Species, adult body length over 20 meters, lives year-round in damp underground environments; its vitality is extremely abnormal, and even if its head is cut off or it is severed into two, it can still survive independently.

For Li Zhangsheng, the size and vitality of the Prehistoric Serrated Earthworm were not the point; the point was that this thing was a Low-level Exotic Beast, and all Low-level Exotic Beasts would become Elite-level existences once they reached adulthood.

Li Zhangsheng felt strange; hadn't the Instructors already cleared out or driven away Spirit Beasts above the Elite level in the Green Wild Forest? How did this Prehistoric Serrated Earthworm come about?

Could it be that the Prehistoric Serrated Earthworm lived underground year-round and was not discovered by the Instructors, or perhaps it had just advanced and thus became a fish that slipped through the net?

However, strange as it was, the most important thing now was to stay away from the Prehistoric Serrated Earthworm.

Crack! Crack!

The Prehistoric Serrated Earthworm's mouth opened and closed; its serrated, sharp teeth felt like a meat grinder, constantly cutting the Gale Antelope's body at an extremely fast frequency. The Gale Antelope didn't even have time to let out a scream before it was cut into chunks of flesh and swallowed into the Prehistoric Serrated Earthworm's belly.

The entire process took less than a second!

Due to being influenced by the scent of the Bloodline Fruit, it was only at this moment that the other Spirit Beasts finally reacted; their fear of death clearly exceeded their desire for the Bloodline Fruit, and they subconsciously wanted to flee.

Unfortunately, the Prehistoric Serrated Earthworm did not give them a chance; its massive body quickly drilled out from underground, and it rapidly rotated its body, accompanied by a piercing sound of breaking air, as its thick, long tail lashed fiercely at several wild Spirit Beasts.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Like a home run, under the massive force, several wild Spirit Beasts flew high into the air, flying dozens of meters away before finally slamming heavily onto the ground, being smashed into meat paste.

The power of a single tail strike was terrifying!

The boar that had fallen behind luckily dodged this strike, but upon facing the Prehistoric Serrated Earthworm's serrated, chilling teeth, it was clearly scared out of its wits; it felt its limbs go weak, its whole body shivering, and it collapsed limply to the ground, burying its head into its hooves.

—Crack—

The Prehistoric Serrated Earthworm was extremely brutal and had no intention of letting the boar go; it bit down on it in one gulp, and in less than a second, the boar was dismembered into chunks of pork.

The entire process took less than five seconds!

In this amount of time, Aixi had only run a hundred meters.

Without any hesitation, the Prehistoric Serrated Earthworm dragged its massive body and rumbled toward Li Zhangsheng, who was riding Aixi.

Due to the large gap in rank, the speed of the Prehistoric Serrated Earthworm was even superior to Aixi's, and the distance between the two was slowly closing.

At this moment, Kailan flapped its wings, and countless white powders formed; a light breeze blew, sweeping toward the Prehistoric Serrated Earthworm.

Unexpectedly, the Prehistoric Serrated Earthworm had no intention of dodging and charged headlong into the Paralysis Powder area.

Paralysis Powder, ineffective!

The Prehistoric Serrated Earthworm had no nose, no eyes, and no ears; all skills related to smell, hearing, or sight were completely ineffective.

After rushing out of the Paralysis Powder area, the Prehistoric Serrated Earthworm continued to close the distance between itself and Li Zhangsheng.

"Aixi, Rise Wind!"

Aixi hissed, and its body surface was instantly covered by light cyan Wind Element energy, as if it had draped a Wind Cloak over itself.

Mental Acceleration!

At the same time, Li Zhangsheng activated the Secret Technique Imprint of Mental Acceleration, instantly bestowing it upon Aixi.

Rise Wind + Mental Acceleration caused Aixi's speed to surge; even so, its speed was only barely equal to that of the Prehistoric Serrated Earthworm.

Most importantly, both Rise Wind and Mental Acceleration had time limits.

"Leaf Blade Slash!"

Under Li Zhangsheng's command, rich green energy condensed, and under Kailan's precise manipulation, the green energy transformed into a leaf-blade shape, slashing toward the Prehistoric Serrated Earthworm.

The Prehistoric Serrated Earthworm did not dodge, but it still activated a defensive move; a hazy, earthy-yellow glow emerged, as if wrapping the Prehistoric Serrated Earthworm in a thick suit of armor.

Bang!

A dull sound rang out; the Leaf Blade Slash struck the earthy-yellow armor, leaving only a sword mark, failing to break the defense.

The gap was too large!

Seeing that it could not catch up to Li Zhangsheng for a long time, and coupled with the fact that it was getting further and further away from the Bloodline Fruit, the Prehistoric Serrated Earthworm became visibly irritable; it raised its head high, and countless hazy earthy-yellow light spots converged, finally spraying a torrent of energy as thick as a water vat from its mouth.

This was Earth Wave, but compared to the Burrowing Mouse, the power was far too much stronger.

Instant Flash!

At the critical moment, Aixi activated its Bloodline Inheritance Skill; its explosive power surged, and like a displacement, it instantly appeared several yards away.

Boom—

A violent roar resounded, and the ground suddenly exploded into a huge pit; countless gravel and mud splashed everywhere, momentarily obstructing Aixi's vision and causing it to almost crash into a large tree.

Even though Aixi tried its best to avoid it and brushed past the large tree, its speed was inevitably affected.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Prehistoric Serrated Earthworm closed the distance.
