Yang Mi and Liu Xiannv had already begun to dry heave, and even some battle-hardened men felt dizzy.

"Isn't this smell too strong? It's like a rotten egg that has been soaked for three months." Cheng Long's face turned blue and he covered his mouth and nose with his sleeves.

Lin Qiye looked carefully and saw countless broken bones and limbs scattered on the ground in front of him, mixed with dirty blood and flesh, like a quagmire.

Above the "quagmire", fist-sized black beetles were wandering around, devouring all the rotten meat.

"Oh my God, is this a human or something else? How could it be so rotten?" someone couldn't help but exclaimed.

Lin Qiye's face was solemn. "It was probably done by evil spirits. Look at these corpses. Their deaths are extremely unnatural, as if they were tortured in life. I'm afraid they were killed in extremely cruel ways!"

When everyone heard this, they all took a deep breath.

Although they were accustomed to such horrific scenes, such a large-scale massacre was still horrifying.

"Could this be the remains of the war between the Shensha and Yueying countries? Looking at the number of corpses, how brutal the battle must have been back then!" Wu Jing's face turned pale.

"According to the conversation among the generals, the Shensha Kingdom relied on sorcery and evil magic to defeat Yueying. I'm afraid that these corpses were killed by those strange spells. How could they survive for a thousand years? What kind of evil magic is so powerful?" Cheng Long analyzed.

Lin Qiye nodded, but his eyes never left the wriggling black beetles.

"These bugs are probably not simple. Look at the way they devour the rotten meat. They are even more ferocious than vultures! Could they be some kind of evil spirits?"

Just as he finished speaking, a black beetle suddenly pounced towards Lin Qiye, baring its teeth and flying straight in his face!

"Be careful!" Yang Mi screamed.

Lin Qiye reacted extremely quickly. He dodged to the side like lightning, grabbed with his right hand, and caught the insect in his palm in the blink of an eye.

The beetle was pitch black with a metallic luster, and its shell was covered with strange patterns, like some evil mark.

The most terrifying thing is its eyes that glow with a strange red light, just like will-o'-the-wisp!
“This is really a ghost.” Lin Qiye frowned, “This is not an ordinary beetle, it is clearly an evil creature created by someone! Looking at the pattern and the look in its eyes, it might have been created by the Godly Evil people!”

As he spoke, he quietly activated the Vajra Talisman, and felt a warm current emanating from his dantian and gathering in his palm.

The next moment, golden light flashed!

The demon insect's shell shattered instantly and turned into a pool of black water.

At the same time, the "quagmire" under his feet seemed to be stimulated by something and began to surge wildly!

Countless black bugs emerged from the ground and rushed towards the crowd like a tide, intending to eat them alive!

"Oh no! Could it be that these evil insects have minds?" Cheng Long was horrified.

"Quick, retreat! Don't let them get to us!" Lin Qiye made a prompt decision and took the lead in retreating.

However, countless black bugs have caught up, so dense that they cover the sky and the sun!

In a hurry, Lin Qiye took out a handful of talismans from his arms and threw them at the strange insects without even looking at them.

The next moment, the talismans were activated, with water, fire, lightning and strong winds mixed in!

Even so, those evil insects still refused to give in and kept chasing towards Lin Qiye and the others, making a "buzzing" sound that made everyone's scalp numb.

“These damn beetles! It seems that even talismans can’t do anything to them.” Lin Qiye gritted his teeth.

Sharp-eyed Yang Mi pointed at the strange insects that were chasing after them and said, "It seems that only fire can cause damage to them!"

Cheng Long suddenly had an idea: "How about we just use fire to burn them all!" "That's right! Insects are most afraid of fire. Now, no matter what kind of evil insects they are, they will be burned to ashes!" Wu Jing also echoed.

Lin Qiye pondered for a moment and nodded: "This is the only way. The most urgent task now is to find a way forward as soon as possible. The longer we delay, the more disadvantageous it will be for us!"

After that, he took out a few magic fire talismans from his bosom and distributed them to everyone: "Help me to block the insect swarm, I will set up a fire array. Let's try to lure these beasts in at once and catch them all in one fell swoop!"

Everyone took the order, each holding a divine fire talisman, and formed a battle formation on both sides of the passage.

Lin Qiye quickly walked to the center of the passage and began to set up a fire array with dry firewood and grease.

It seemed as if he was placing the flammable materials according to some special pattern.

Soon, a huge pentagram formation gradually took shape.

At the center of the formation, there are three Lihuo talismans.

"Ready!" Lin Qiye shouted and withdrew from the center of the formation.

He then pointed fiercely at the center of the formation.

With a humming sound, a dazzling golden light instantly filled the entire passage!

The flames from the bursting of the Fire Talisman suddenly surged, and in the blink of an eye it swallowed up all the dry diesel oil, turning into a raging flame that roared towards both sides of the corridor!

Countless beetles were engulfed by the fire before they could react.

The "sizzling" sounds came one after another, mixed with the burnt smell, which was nauseating.

However, more insects were like crazy, desperately diving into the sea of ​​fire, intending to die together with the flames!
"Are these things crazy? They're still trying to get in even though it's already burned like this?" Wu Jing was dumbfounded.

"Are these bugs possessed? They would rather perish together with us than drag us down with them!" Cheng Long shouted in horror.

Faced with this horrifying scene, even Lin Qiye couldn't help but be moved.

These monster insects are really too reckless. Although they are terrifying, they obviously do not have any intelligence and only act on instinct.

Such reckless madness may have other hidden reasons.
Just as everyone was talking about it, a deafening roar suddenly exploded!

Immediately afterwards, the raging fire was strangely extinguished for the most part, and was replaced by a black mist that was spreading around at a speed visible to the naked eye!
Wherever the fog passed, the walls rustled, and countless white bones and withered arms poked out from the cracks in the rocks, like the claws of hell!
At the same time, countless sinister eyes were staring at everyone from the black fog, emitting a biting chill.

"Is this a human or a ghost?" Some people stepped back in fear.

Lin Qiye's eyes fixed, and he shouted sternly: "Get behind me! This mist is not right, don't let it get on you!"

He retreated while quickly forming seals.

Golden light flashed at his fingertips, and he drew a Tai Chi pattern in front of him and took out a magic talisman.

After the talisman spontaneously combusted, the formation was activated and an invisible barrier was opened, barely resisting the invasion of the black fog.

However, at such a close distance, everyone could still clearly feel the sinister malice emanating from the fog.

Everyone looked at each other, with fear written all over their faces.

In this dangerous situation, even with the presence of a great god like Lin Qiye, there is no guarantee that there will be no accidents! (End of this chapter)
