Sunset Peak

Liu Ming pondered slightly, then he flew toward the main peak.

After 10 minutes, he arrived outside the main hall of Taiqing Sect.

The strange thing was that there was no one at the gate of the well-guarded hall. When Liu Ming was hesitating about whether to find someone to inform, Immortal Tian Ge’s voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

“Come in.”

Liu Ming heard the words, calmed down, opened the door and walked in.

Only Immortal Tian Ge was standing here alone, and no other people were seen.

“Greetings, sect master.” Liu Ming’s eyes flashed. He walked to Immortal Tian Ge and bowed.

“That’s enough.”

Immortal Tian Ge looked at Liu Ming. When he saw that Liu Ming was spirited, he nodded slightly.

“Come with me.”

Immortal Tian Ge beckoned, turned around and walked into the inner room of the main hall.

Liu Ming quickly followed.

After a while, they walked through a corridor and came to a rather side hall.

“Okay, I won’t say anything redundant. After this period of preparation, the plan to deal with the Hellish-Insect Clan near Thousands Spirit Mountain Range is almost ready. But the success or failure of this battle is still up to you.” Immortal Tian Ge sat down on a chair and went straight to the point.

“Sect master, please tell me in detail.” Liu Ming took a deep breath and cupped his fist.

Immortal Tian Ge raised his sleeve robe, and a fist-sized light ball appeared in the air, then he quickly pointed a few times with his fingers.

Immediately, the light ball released intense light. A map gradually emerged out of it.

Liu Ming looked around. It was the map of the Thousands Spirit Mountain Range. It clearly marked several space tunnels where the Hellish-Insects were spawned and a few gathering places.

“After many investigations by our disciples, the largest space tunnel near the Thousands Spirit Mountain Range is at the Sunset Peak in the west of the Thousands Spirit Mountain Range. The Hellish-Insects gather the most there. After several Mystic Comprehending State elders discussed, they decided to annihilate all Hellish-Insects near the Sunset Peak in one fell swoop. As long as the Hellish-Insects here are annihilated, it is equivalent to cutting off the center. The Hellish-Insect Clan in several other places will be isolated.” Immortal Tian Ge said.

Liu Ming nodded and said nothing.

“The number of Hellish-Insects gathering in the Sunset Peak is almost millions, although these numbers are not much to our Taiqing Sect, the space tunnel there is extremely wide. In order to prevent Hellish-Insects from appearing suddenly. You need to sneak into the vicinity first. Before we fight back, use a treasure that can disrupt the space to seal the space tunnel.” Immortal Tian Ge said.

After hearing this, Liu Ming’s face was a little ugly.

Although he guessed that the mission would not be easy, he did not expect it to be like this.

According to Immortal Tian Ge, he had to sneak into the center of the Hellish-Insect Clan army, then wait for the opportunity to use the secret treasure to seal the space tunnel.

It was no longer a matter of danger or not. It was the same as killing him.

According to the information he later got from Yin Jiuling, the Mystic Comprehending State Grand Elder Feng Qing was pushed back by the Hellish-Insectsat the Sunset Peak.

“Sect Master, please forgive me for asking this. According to my knowledge, the Mystic Comprehending State Hellish-Insect exists in the space tunnel of the Sunset Peak. The Celestial State Hellish-Insects are even more numerous. I’m just a Real Pellet State cultivator. How can I sneak in right in front of them, let alone seal the space tunnel.” Liu Ming could only say indirectly.

“Since we entrusted this mission to you, we naturally won’t let you go like this. This is a Sky-Escape Shadowless Talisman that a Mystic Comprehending State grand elder personally refines. Once this talisman is activated, as long as you don’t channel spiritual power, even the Mystic Comprehending State powerhouse can’t easily detect you. The lower the cultivation of the one who uses it, the better the effect. With this, you can sneak into the Sunset Peak easily.” Immortal Tian Ge waved his hand and took out a palm-sized talisman with flickering white light.

Hearing this, Liu Ming was relieved slightly.

If this thing really had such an effect, as long as he was a little more careful, he still had some confidence in sneaking into the Sunset Peak.

“Hellish-Insect Clan is extremely sensitive to spiritual power fluctuations. Any spell fluctuations will attract their attention, so after lurking in, you can only walk through them. If anything happens along the way, you can only fight with physical strength. You must not use spiritual power. Otherwise, you should know the consequences.” Immortal Tian Ge said with a very solemn expression.

Liu Ming nodded. He finally understood why the sect wanted to look for a person with tyrannical physique to complete this mission.

“As for the Mystic Comprehending State Hellish-Insect, you don’t have to worry. Once the battle starts, Grand Elder Xuan Yu will try to lure it away. You can use this Celestial Mirror to seal the tunnel.” Immortal Tian Ge took out a black mirror and handed it over with the Sky-Escape Shadowless Talisman.

Liu Ming could only take them with both hands.

The Sky Escape Shadowless Talisman was warm when touching. Some mythical runes flashed on it from time to time. Liu Ming tried to check with Divine Thought, and he faintly felt an extremely obscure spiritual power in it.

Another Celestial Mirror treasure seemed to be unremarkable, but there was a slight glimmer of light like water waves on the mirror.

Liu Ming glanced at it, then immediately looked away. He keenly sensed that the mirror contained an extremely violent space force.

“These 2 items are one-time treasures, especially Celestial Mirror can only be activated once. You must grasp the timing!” Immortal Tian Ge said in a deep voice when he saw Liu Ming’s thoughtful look.

“Yes, disciple understands.” Liu Ming put the 2 treasures into the Sumeru Ring and said solemnly.

“Okay, I’ll teach you the way to activate them. Try to practice after you return. Half a month later, we will start the plan…” Immortal Tian Ge nodded. He taught him about the way to activate the Celestial Mirror.

In the following time, he told Liu Ming some news about the Hellish-Insect Clan and gave a few items that could be useful to Liu Ming before letting him go.

…

Half a month later, a mountain range several hundred miles away from the Taiqing Sect.

This place was supposed to be a green forest, but because of the previous battles, there were many huge pits caused by spiritual weapons.

A few wisps of black smoke that occasionally floated in the distance seemed to tell that a big battle had just happened here.

Under the shade of the tree, a black figure flashed out. It was Liu Ming.

At this moment, Liu Ming was like a lurking black panther, looking at a gray mountain in the distance.

There was the Sunset Peak. The entire mountain was shrouded in circles of gray mist.

The place where he was was already the outermost perimeter of the Hellish-Insect Clan army.

Since half a day ago, under the lead of Immortal Tian Ge, the disciples of Taiqing Sect had been gathering around the Sunset Peak. Now there were thousands of them. Several small scale wars had happened with the Hellish-Insect Clan.

Liu Ming knew that Immortal Tian Ge was trying to attract the attention of the Hellish-Insect Clan army, thus making it easier for him to sneak in.

Liu Ming chanted. Wisps of green light emerged on his left shoulder and covered his entire body soon. He became a vague shadow before going toward to the Sunset Peak.

At the periphery of the Hellish-Insect Clan army, Liu Ming did not intend to use the Sky Escape Shadowless Talisman for the time being. With his Che Huan Totem’s concealment ability, it was enough to hide from the low rank Hellish-Insect Clan at the periphery.

Although the Sky Escape Shadowless Talisman was exquisite, the effect had a certain time limit. According to Immortal Tian Ge, the effect of this talisman could only last for one day and one night at most.

He didn’t know how long he had to hide, so he wouldn’t use it unless he was desperate.

Liu Ming quickly sprinted toward the mountain using various shelters.

He hid all the spiritual power in his body. He just used his powerful body to rush toward the target area.

Just relying on physical strength, the speed would naturally not be fast. After an hour, it would only be more than a hundred miles forward.

At this moment, there was a deep roar from the front mixed with crackling sounds.

Liu Ming was very familiar with these sounds. He hid behind a boulder and looked forward.

More than 20 black Hellish-Insect insects were eating some injured Hellish-Insects in front. A black carapace Hellish-Insect was about 24 meters long, and its aura had reached the perfect state of the Crystallization Period. It was still constantly growing under the devouring process.

Liu Ming’s eyes flickered slightly. He wanted to bypass it, but he suddenly stopped again.

Along the way, he also encountered a lot of Hellish-Insects, but all of them were low rank Hellish-Insects, unable to detect his trace.

However, whether Real Pellet State Hellish-Insect could see through the concealment effect of Che Huan Totem, Liu Ming had never tried.

Now might be an opportunity.

This was still the outer periphery of Hellish-Insect Clan army. Even if he was spotted here, it was very easy for him to escape.

Thinking of this, Liu Ming continued to hide behind the boulder.

The black carapace Hellish-Insect devoured another injured Hellish-Insect in one bite.

The black carapace Hellish-Insect suddenly lit up with a black light, and a powerful aura spread out. It had advanced to the Real Pellet State.

“Roar…” The black carapace Hellish-Insect let out a groan. The other Hellish-Insects around that were devouring immediately retreated far away, looking at the black carapace Hellish-Insect in awe.

The black carapace Hellish-Insect let out a smug shrill, seemingly satisfied with it, then it slowly devoured the injured Hellish-Insects one by one.

When the last injured Hellish-Insect was devoured, the black carapace Hellish-Insect was about to fly toward the Sunset Peak.

At this moment, there was a sudden light sound, which seemed to be the sound of a stone hitting the ground.
