Chapter 489 Self-Destruction

"Six Blasting Flames?" The middle-aged monk exclaimed, and at this time, the two fireballs beside Xiao Lin were already smashing towards the middle-aged monk with the force of thunder.

The middle-aged monk almost didn't think about it, and the two hexagonal shields beside him immediately overlapped together, forming three layers of shield defense of more than ten feet in size, blocking in front of him.

"Boom boom boom~~" When the two fireballs hit the shield, they immediately exploded one after another, and the area within a radius of dozens of feet suddenly turned into a sea of ​​fire. The middle-aged monk was also thrown dozens of feet away under the huge impact, his face pale, and his eyes flashed with horror.

But before he had time to catch his breath, nine huge sword lights, carrying a large piece of cold sword energy, slashed on the shield in front of him one after another.

The defensive power of the three shields of the middle-aged monk was really amazing, but they could not withstand this series of attacks. The outermost shield was slashed by the sword energy of the seventh Qingluan Ice Sword.

With a "bang.", the shield broke into pieces and fell downwards.

The middle-aged monk's face changed, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. At this time, he also realized that there was a big gap in combat power between him and the young monk who looked only about 20 years old. Thinking of this, he stretched out his hand without hesitation, and the magic sword flashing with earth-yellow spiritual light flashed to his side.

A spiritual light wrapped up the middle-aged monk, and then flew away.

"It's too late to leave now." Xiao Lin's mind moved, and the Soul Devouring Fire Gu gathered on one side suddenly turned into a fire cloud, almost instantly wrapping the middle-aged monk in it.

"They are just some ordinary and real monster insects. What can they do to me...ah." After being tightly wrapped by countless soul-devouring fire insects, the middle-aged cultivator showed a disdainful expression on his face. In his opinion, even if these low-level monster insects could surround him, he could kill them with just a little trick.

Thinking of this, he opened his mouth slightly, and a ball of light blue flame spewed out. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a raging fire and burned towards countless soul-devouring fire insects.

But then, the middle-aged cultivator exclaimed. It turned out that after spewing out the elixir fire, he was shocked to find that these monster insects in front of him actually began to devour his elixir fire, and they also showed an extremely excited expression.

Not only that, the demon insects surrounding his body protection aura began to devour it crazily. Although his body protection aura was rich, it could not withstand the gnawing of so many soul-devouring fire insects, and most of the demon insects surrounding his body protection aura were real-level demon insects. As a result, his body protection aura began to flash violently.

At the same time, he felt that the mana in his Dantian Qi Sea was also being consumed at a speed that shocked him. In just a moment, 30% of the mana in his Dantian had been consumed.

"This... this demon insect can actually devour the body protection aura of a cultivator?" The middle-aged cultivator was really scared. If this continued, it would take less than an hour for the mana in his body to be exhausted.

A dazzling earth-yellow sword light appeared on the middle-aged cultivator's body and shot in all directions. Wherever he passed, thousands of soul-devouring fire insects were cut in half by these sword lights and fell down.

When Xiao Lin saw this scene, he did not show a distressed expression, but instead showed an excited light on his face. It turned out that when the middle-aged cultivator emitted the sword light just now, Xiao Lin found that those true-level Soul Devouring Fire Gu were not cut in half when they were cut by the sword light. Instead, when the sword light passed by the true-level Soul Devouring Fire Gu, most of the sword energy was absorbed by it.

The ones that were cut in half were all ordinary-level Soul Devouring Fire Gu. Obviously, ordinary-level Soul Devouring Fire Gu did not have the ability to devour sword light and could not eliminate the sharpness of the sword light, so they were cut into pieces.

For Xiao Lin, losing a few ordinary-level Soul Devouring Fire Gu was nothing at all. With the spiritual wood space, he had endless low-level spiritual herbs and could cultivate an astonishing number in a short time.

After understanding the ability of the True Soul Devouring Fire Gu, Xiao Lin's mind moved, and those ordinary Soul Devouring Fire Gu immediately retreated dozens of feet away, surrounding the middle-aged monk from a distance, and the two thousand True Soul Devouring Fire Gu had already wrapped the middle-aged monk into a ball of fiery red.

Xiao Lin stood quietly in the void, staring expressionlessly at the middle-aged monk who was wrapped by the Soul Devouring Fire Gu. The middle-aged monk's face was pale at this moment, and his mana had been exhausted. He couldn't even control the sword light to attack the Soul Devouring Fire Gu.

And after he discovered that the True Soul Devouring Fire Gu could even devour the sword light, he was completely desperate. He could never have thought that he would fall on this small island.

After another cup of tea, a blush suddenly appeared on the pale face of the middle-aged monk, and then all the exposed parts of his body were covered with earthworm-like blue veins.

And his body also swelled rapidly as if it was chased by air.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Lin's face changed, and with a thought, the Soul-Devouring Fire Gu that wrapped the middle-aged cultivator dispersed. However, just before it dispersed less than a foot, a dazzling khaki light suddenly lit up.

Like a golden sun, circles of yellow spiritual light burst out and spread in all directions, and the two thousand soul-devouring fire insects were also penetrated by several waves of violent spiritual power in an instant.

Suddenly, it was like a rain of fire, and most of the two thousand soul-devouring fire insects fell down.

Xiao Lin stared at a star ring that fell to the ground and flashed with a faint spiritual light, his face was gloomy and almost dripping with water.

"Self-destruction?" Xiao Lin didn't expect that this middle-aged cultivator was still a bit stubborn. After knowing that he couldn't get rid of his soul-devouring fire insect, he actually chose to perish with his soul-devouring fire insect through self-destruction. He was really a ruthless person.

If he didn't choose to self-destruct, even if he was completely devoured by the soul-devouring fire insect, at least his origin could still re-enter the cycle of reincarnation, but under the self-destruction of the golden elixir, this person was completely wiped out, and his body and soul were destroyed.

The only thing that made Xiao Lin distressed was the soul-devouring fire insect that he had cultivated for a long time.

"Huh?" Xiao Lin suddenly cried out in surprise. It turned out that in his perception, the connection between him and those true-level Soul Devouring Fire Gu had not disappeared. In his perception, those Soul Devouring Fire Gu that fell to the ground had a weak breath, but they were not dead. Moreover, he felt that these true-level Soul Devouring Fire Gu were not injured, but rather seemed to be exhausted.

Xiao Lin showed a hint of joy on his face, and slowly landed. He saw those true-level Soul Devouring Fire Gu that fell to the ground, like small flames, flickering a thumb-sized blood-red flame.

There were more than two or three hundred of them, with rich spiritual light flashing on their bodies, and their wings kept flapping, but they just couldn't fly.

This look was very much like eating too much and unable to move. Xiao Lin's mind moved, and he took out a spirit beast bag, pointed at these Soul Devouring Fire Gu from a distance, and immediately a suction force came out of the spirit beast bag, taking all these immobile Soul Devouring Fire Gu into it.

After doing all this, Xiao Lin showed a satisfied expression on his face. With a thought, the huge fire cloud not far away suddenly dispersed and disappeared into the woods in the mountains.

"Master, you are finally back. If you come back a little later, I will never see you again." At this time, Jiang Yingxue ran to Xiao Lin's side, with an excited smile on her pretty face.

Looking at Jiang Yingxue in front of him, Xiao Lin was slightly stunned. He had never looked at his disciple carefully before. Now, compared with ten years ago, not only is her skin much whiter, her appearance is also more beautiful, and she is taller, but she is still only at Xiao Lin's shoulder.

"Master is indeed not thoughtful enough, and it almost caused a disaster." Xiao Lin showed some self-blame on his face. He thought that Qinghu Island was only a few hundred miles away from Leishi Xiancheng. At such a close distance, no one should have any bad thoughts.

Moreover, before he left, he had also released all the Soul Devouring Fire Gu to protect his cave, and killed anyone who came.

At the same time, he also ordered a small number of Soul Devouring Fire Gu to protect Jiang Yingxue, but he didn't expect that these Soul Devouring Fire Gu flew too far, and they had no mental connection with Jiang Yingxue, so they couldn't come to help when Jiang Yingxue was in danger.

In the final analysis, Xiao Lin thought that it was indeed his carelessness that put Jiang Yingxue in danger. It was indeed as she said, if he had come a little later, then his precious apprentice would probably have really died.

"It's good that the master is here, which shows that we still have the fate of master and apprentice." Seeing the self-blaming expression on Xiao Lin's face, Jiang Yingxue was moved and spoke to help Xiao Lin out.

"You are also tired today. Go back and have a good rest for a day. When you come to the master's cave tomorrow, the master will test your cultivation results over the years, and also start to teach you some means of dealing with enemies." Xiao Lin waved his hand and said.

"Well, Master has just returned. Have a good rest. I will come to see you tomorrow." Jiang Yingxue bowed to Xiao Lin very obediently, then turned and flew towards her cave.

After Jiang Yingxue left, Xiao Lin took a few steps and headed towards his cave. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the dense forest.

After returning to the cave, Xiao Lin first checked the fairy egg and found that there was no other performance except that the surface occasionally flashed a faint green spiritual light, and the five elements spirit fire bead was still spewing the five elements spirit fire, wrapping the fairy egg.

After returning to the practice room, Xiao Lin sat cross-legged in the practice room, looking at the wall, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

This time, he was indeed careless. The cave where he practiced was surprisingly coveted by others. If he hadn't returned just in time, not only would his fairy egg and the five elements spirit fire bead have been transferred to other people's hands, but his disciple Jiang Yingxue would also be abducted.
