899 Chapter 899, battle the Dragon Ancestor (2)
Why were there runes on the back of the insect?
It was obvious that this was premeditated. The dragon ancestorâs goal was to let the black dragon of his tribe take over.
With the speed of the Imperial Emperor and the others, they would reach the underground space at the end of the tunnel in less than half an hour. There, there was a large insect that looked like a mantis. It was a hundred meters long and its entire body was bronze in color, it looked like a mechanical insect made of metal.
This was the insect ancestor! It was two levels higher than the king insect that Yang Tian had seen last time.
If Tai Yu obtained the power of this insect ancestor, his strength would increase by several levels.
Of course, to âDigestâthe power of the insect ancestor, Tai Yu alone would definitely not be able to do it. Then, he would need a talisman array..
The passageway into the underground space was very concealed, and the entire underground space was covered with talisman arrays, making it very difficult to break through. Other than Tai Yu of the Black Dragon race, this competition was just a formality for the other dragons. At the same time.., they would also have to face the countless insect attacks on the insect island.
âThe plan is pretty good, then Iâll let you all go for nothing!â
Yang Tian opened his eyes, curled the corner of his mouth, and sneered.
A moment later, Yang Tian closed his eyes again and slightly lowered his head. His long black hair spread out and covered his face, making it impossible for others to see the strange mark between his brows.
Waves of invisible energy fluctuations were emitted from Yang Tianâs body and spread to the entire insect island.
Not long after, all the awakened King insects stopped moving. The insects around Yang Tian also immediately moved away.
The energy of the insect race was extremely special and could be gathered from an extremely far distance.
At this moment, under the threat of the race, the king insects received Yang Tianâs order and began to transfer their energy to Yang Tian, including the sleeping insect ancestor..
..
Tai Yu and the others finally arrived at the underground space.
Looking at the huge insect in front of him, Tai Yu smiled excitedly. As long as he obtained the power of this insect ancestor, he could become the next dragon ancestor!
At that time, the Azure Dragon Clan would continue to be suppressed, making them disappear from the Dragon Clan.
Also, the dragon domain was too small. As a noble dragon, he couldnât always stay in the dragon domain. All the beasts in the Sea of stars should submit to him. And the god domain. Those gods had occupied the god domain for too long. They didnât do anything but enjoyed endless lives. The current dragon ancestor was too conservative..
Tai Yu was so excited that he imagined what would happen after he became the dragon ancestor.
Tai Yu didnât expect that the energy in the motionless insect ancestorâs body, which was sealed by a rune array, was being transferred rapidly.
After merging the insect origin world and the original world into one and creating fusion energy, Yang Tianâs energy requirement was close to the boundless realm. Not to mention one insect ancestorâs energy, even if he had ten more.., his energy world could also accommodate it.
Previously, Yang Tian had absorbed the energy of the king insect for a long time because his realm wasnât high enough. Thus, the energy capacity in his body was limited. But now, it was different. It was close to the boundless realm, which made the insect ancestorâs energy transfer quickly. In just ten minutes, the insect core in the insect ancestorâs body shrank by one-fifth of its size.
âCough cough...â
Tai Yu stared blankly at the insect ancestorâs huge body as if he was mesmerized. After a long time, one of his subordinates finally couldnât help but cough twice.
Only then did Tai Yu come to his senses, he raised his hand and waved it. âGo Dig Out the insect core. Place it on its chest. Remember not to destroy the runes on its body. If the rune array on its body is destroyed and it wakes up, none of us will be able to leave alive.â
The eleven subordinates responded and began to move.
Yang Tianâs rate of absorbing energy was getting faster and faster. Over a thousand king insects that were still alive had already transferred the energy in their bodies to Yang Tian, and the insect core in the insect ancestorâs body had already shrunk by one-third.
The insect ancestorâs outer shell was very hard. The tools carried by the Black Dragon clan chiseled on it, leaving only a shallow pit. It took half an hour before a hole the size of a bowl appeared.
Tai Yu stood under the insect ancestorâs body. His right hand turned into a long dragon claw. He jumped up and put the dragon claw into the insect ancestorâs chest. After a long time, he finally caught a hard object that looked like the insect core.
He took this hard object out and saw that it was a light blue crystal. It was not even as big as an adultâs fist, and its color did not match what the dragon ancestor had described.
However, this crystal core was emitting energy fluctuations. It clearly indicated that this was the insect core in insect ancestorâs body.
âThis... is impossible, right?â
Tai Yuâs eyes widened, finding it hard to believe.
After being startled for a moment, Tai Yu roared and jumped up again. His body was close to insect ancestorâs abdomen, and he used the dragon claw to continuously dig around insect ancestorâs chest. Insect ancestorâs internal organs were also smashed into pieces.
With nothing to show for it, Tai Yu used his dragon claws to destroy the symbols on the insect ancestorâs body.
âPuâ
Once the symbol array that sealed the insect ancestor was broken, the insect ancestor woke up. A large lump of green liquid spewed out of its mouth. It only moved a little before lying down and not moving at all.
Having lost all its power, coupled with the organs in its body being destroyed, the insect ancestorâs physical body was already dead.
It was not just its physical body. The insect ancestorâs spirit body had also dissipated. The spirit body that was left in the corpse could not harm Tai Yu.
The insect ancestor was not to be trifled with. When Yang Tian was forcefully absorbing its energy, it had borrowed the energy to enter Yang Tianâs body. It originally thought that it could occupy Yang Tianâs body.
Unexpectedly, Yang Tianâs energy world was filled with fusion energy. The insect ancestorâs spirit body did not have time to react and was disintegrated and absorbed together with its energy.
This was probably the most miserable insect ancestor in the history of the insect clan. It was first sealed and then absorbed by Yang Tian. Even its spirit body could not survive.
âImpossible! Impossible...â
Looking at the corpse of the insect ancestor, Tai Yu opened his eyes wide and muttered to himself.
He could not believe the reality before his eyes.
When he saw the insect ancestor, he had a beautiful dream, imagining the situation after becoming the dragon ancestor.
The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, the more beautiful the fantasy was, and the more painful it would be when he could not achieve the situation in his fantasy.
If he could not obtain insect ancestorâs power, Tai Yu would not become the next dragon ancestor.
âWhatâs going on? Could it be that Iâve been deceived by the dragon ancestor...â
The more Tai Yu thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible.
Because other than him and his subordinates, no other dragon had come here before.
âIt must be like this!âTai Yu confirmed his own thoughts. Suddenly, he raised his head and roared at the top of the cave, âDragon Ancestor, you lied to me...â
...
âHehe! Serves you right!â
Borrowing the senses of a low-level insect, Yang Tian sneered when he saw this scene.
âYouâre very proud!â
Suddenly, an old voice sounded behind Yang Tian.
Yang Tian maintained his cross-legged posture and did not move. The corner of his mouth curled up and he said faintly, âOld Fart, you are finally here.â
