Chapter 173: The Life Stealing Bridge

Chapter 173: The life stealing bridge

Chapter 173: The life stealing bridge

They could not see the other side of the stone bridge at all!

They knew the bridge was dangerous, but they had no choice but to move forward because other than this, there was no other way for them to go.

“We can’t go back anyway. I don’t want to be turned into a meat patty by those giants!” Nangong Yun had a disposition that never feared challenges, and she bravely walked onto the bridge. “Let’s go! I’ll lead the way!”

“Wait a minute!” Chu Tian stood in front of the bridge and inspected it, “There is a problem with the bridge. Trouble will appear if you walk on it so carelessly.”

Those incredibly strong armoured giants and the rapidly evolving cyclopes were all fine!

But would this bridge not have a problem? Isn’t that a huge joke!

If Chu Tian said there was a problem, there definitely would be a problem! Everyone stopped moving to look around. The stone bridge was very small compared to the black void, but for humans, it was actually quite big.

It was ten meters wide and was smoothly paved with crystal stone. There were source energy arrays engraved on the crystal stone that were sending out strong source energy fluctuations.

Lin Mu was a mercenary, so he was quite sensitive to stuff like this, “This bridge seems to be covered in traps. If we make a single mistake, the consequences would be unimaginable.”

“That’s right, we can’t activate the traps at all.” Chu Tian carefully observed the stone bridge for a few minutes, “The stone floor’s runes will not constantly change. As long as you follow closely in my footsteps, you should be able to safely cross the bridge.”

Yun Yao swept her gaze over it.

The fine crystals were covered in runes, but even with her experience and knowledge, she could not understand it at all. It was clearly an ancient rune from an ancient civilization.

Chu Tian did not dare to say he understood it all, but he understood enough to know where the traps were.

“Focus your mind and don’t make any mistakes.”

Chu Tian stepped on one stone plate, and it began to light up, but Chu Tian ignored it and stepped onto the second plate, the third, and the fourth……The plates Chu Tian stepped on lit up, but nothing came from them.

The other six were overjoyed in their hearts.

It was a good thing they had Chu Tian, otherwise it would be incredibly hard for them to even take a small step forward in this trial space!

The six of them carefully followed Chu Tian. Whichever stone plate he stepped on, they would follow right behind him. They did not meet any trouble on the way and they slowly began to move faster.

After half an hour, they had safely traversed over half of the stone plates.

But something that no one expected happened!

Weng, weng, weng!

The sound of wings flapping at high speed came from all around them!

Around the stone bridge, floating above the abyss were three meter tall giant monsters! These monsters had black and yellow bodies, looking like insects. Not only did they have sickles on their hands, they also had long black needles attached to their abdomens.

There were too many of them!

There were over a hundred tightly packed together!

Yun Xiao let out a surprised cry, “Fuck! I finally understand why this place is called the giant’s hive! This is a place where the giants raise their bees! We’ve run head into a hornet’s nest! What do we do!”

Nangong Yun hit his head, “Stop shouting! You’re embarrassing! It’s just a few insects!”

Yun Xiao shouted out in an exaggerated manner, “Insects? Please elder sister, how can you even consider these insects! Have you ever seen an insect weighing several hundred pounds! Ever since we’ve entered this labyrinth, we’ve become the insects!”

Everyone revealed a bitter look.

The giant bees did not look friendly, and this bridge was covered in traps, so they had no way to do anything. If they had to fight back the bees in this situation, it would be a task harder than ascending to heaven!

Yun Yao instantly clenched her hands, and the Thunder Spirit Bead floated around her body.

As the buzzing sound rang out.

Countless giant bees began to charge at the stone bridge!

“Take care of them!” Chu Tian’s sword qi slashed out at a giant bee, dividing it in half. When he saw that the bee’s strength was not as great as he imagined, Chu Tian let out a sigh of relief.

Who would have thought that the two halves of the bee corpse would fall right on the stone bridge. A piece landed on one of the thirty meter wide stone plates.

Hong!

A trap had been activated!

Lightning fell from the sky, instantly turning the bee corpse to ashes…..That’s right, it had been turned to ashes. A gentle breeze blew past, and the crystal stone plate was as smooth as before, not leaving a single mark behind!

The other piece of the corpse fell down on another trap. Energy was released as the other half was turned to stone before breaking down into powder.

Too terrifying!

The entire bridge was covered in death traps!

Under the attack of the giant bees, they could not make a single mistake or else they would be instantly killed by the traps!

The Thunder Spirit Bead floated in the sky and released a giant thunder net, instantly covering the seven of them. When the giant bees hit the net, they were immediately sent flying by the lightning with no way to attack.

“My spirit energy is limited and with this kind of large defense, I won’t be able to hold on for long!” Yun Yao shouted while knitting her brows, “Eliminate them quickly and don’t let them come close, otherwise we’re finished!”

“Wind and Cloud Sword Song!”

In this kind of dangerous moment, it was time for Feng Caidie to display her skills. She was a wind attributed cultivator and could attack from afar with quick attacks. With how intense the Wind and Cloud Sword Song was, facing this kind of large scale monster attack, she was the best candidate!

Countless streaks of blue sword qi surged forward in waves, cutting down the giant bees one by one.

This did not solve the problem. The giant bees were too far away, and other than Feng Caidie, no one had a way of attacking the giant bees. The giant bees’ numbers far exceeded their expectations, and densely surrounding the bridge like this, they completely slowed down their advancing speed.

Rows of jet black needles were raised.

Each needle tail was releasing a green glow, just like the colour of poison.

Yun Xiao wiped away his sweat, “Not like this!”

Su, su, su, su……Several hundred needles fell like raindrops, shooting at the stone bridge. The speed of each needle was as fast as sound itself, completely invisible to the naked eye, forming a dense black shadow.

A bean frying sound came from the thunder net around them.

It was the sound of stingers being sent back by the thunder net.

Yun Yao’s face turned ugly, “This is bad, there are too many poisonous needles. My thunder net is not a complete defense and cannot stop this kind of dense and high frequency attack!”

Thunder and fire were not substances.

So after a defense was formed, it wasn’t as solid as one formed from gold, earth, or ice.

Each needle that fell on the thunder net was sent flying back by the thunder energy. This consumed a lot of energy, and the defenses had to be replenished constantly, so with this kind of dense attack, it was impossible to keep the thunder net up.

Finally a poisonous needle passed through the thunder net, shooting at them!

“Ice Mountain Shield!”

A white aura came from Fang Han, and a large shield condensed in the air. When the poison needle met the shield, it became deeply embedded, but it could not destroy the shield.

“Go!”

Fang Han’s giant shield flew at the rain of needles.

“Ice Explosion!”

The giant shield exploded, and countless pieces of ice flew in all directions. Many giant bees did not dodge in time and were sent to the ground after being hit by the ice.

However, it wasn’t strong enough!

Fang Han’s cultivation was not high and he had no way of dealing serious injuries, so another batch of poison needles flew at them. Everyone quickly raised their own defenses.

There was one poison needle that fell onto the stone plate beside them.

The crystal stone plate was activated, and a green poisonous mist was released from the trap array. It was like a cloud as it enveloped them.

Everyone’s face fell!

Damn!

The stingers could activate the traps on the ground. Not only did they have to stop the stingers from hitting them, they had to make sure that the stingers did not fall on any of the terrifying traps near them!

“Absorb!”

Lin Mu summoned out his Willow Tree Source Spirit. It had been a long time since it was last used, and the Willow Tree Source Spirit had restored most of its energy. The willow leaves touched poison and completely absorbed all the poison the trap released.

Chu Tian saw this and shouted, “Do not defend! Go full attack! Destroy them!”

If they continued fighting like this, it was a matter of time before the enemy took them out. They had to go all out and destroy the giant bees as quickly as possible.

“There’s no other choice!”

“Thunder Bird!”

Yun Yao put her hands together and the thunder net gathered together with the Thunder Spirit Bead as the focal point. It changed into a seven-eight meter long giant bird that charged at the giant bees.

After Yun Yao attacked, Feng Caidie’s dozens of sword qi followed after. Since the others did not have strong long range attacks, they would only use their powers to create shields.

Yun Yao was worthy of being an Illustrious Soul Realm cultivator. Wherever the Thunder Bird went, the giant bees were swept away.

In just a little while, she had killed several dozens of them.

“Good!”

Nangong Yun loudly cheered. With the speed they were being killed at, it wouldn’t take long before all the giant bees were taken care of!

However, at this moment.

A jet black bee suddenly appeared. This giant bee was clearly different than the others, as its body released a metallic glow. It was like a meteor as it launched a sneak attack against them. It’s foreleg’s scythes swept out, and streaks of sword qi were sent at the stone bridge.

“Damn!”

If this attack landed, it would trigger at least five-six traps. Moreover, it was incredibly close to them, so who knew what would happen.

Nangong Yun quickly punched out.

Peng!

The red spirit energy broke the sword qi and slammed into the giant bee’s body. Nangong Yun was pushed back several steps and she stepped on the edge of the stone plate she was on.

If she moved another centimeter!

She would step on another stone plate!

Nangong Yun was covered in cold sweat. She had thought that she was safe, but that black giant bee she sent flying suddenly raised its butt and sent out a black poison stinger.

Nangong Yun unconsciously avoided it, but that stinger landed on the stone plate and countless runes began to shine.

“This is bad!”

A wild energy burst forth.

Yun Xiao wanted to grab onto her.

“Go away!”

Nangong Yun shouted, but it was too late.

A shock wave was sent out with Nangong Yun, Yun Xiao, and Feng Caidie being close by. Bearing the brunt of the attack, they were sent flying twelve to fifteen meters from the stone bridge and fell into the bottomless abyss.

Several giant bees charged after them, catching the injured people. They then dived head first into the bottomless abyss.

“Damn, save me……”

Yun Xiao’s pitiful cry vanished into the darkness.

The giant bees could no longer take fight back and were suffering heavy casualties, so they had no choice but to retreat.

“Damn!” Yun Yao knit her brows as she looked over the devastated stone bridge. Her eyes filled with anger as she tightly clenched her fist, “Those three have been captured by the giant bees, it seems like they’re dead for sure!”

Lin Mu and Fang Han’s hearts filled with fear, “This kind of trial is impossible to pass!”

This was too harsh!

This bridge was not something a normal person could cross!

In all of Central State City, perhaps only Chu Tian had the ability to see through these traps. If anyone else met this stone bridge, they could only try their luck and would not have the chance to reach this far.

Who would have known that not only did this trial space have a dangerous bridge like this, it also had several hundred large monsters blocking the way. This kind of difficulty was just too harsh!

How many hours had passed so far?

Nangong Yun and the others were already dead!

How long would the remaining people survive for?

“It’s too early for that conclusion!” Chu Tian looked at the black void and said, “These bees are demon beasts that live in a crowd, so they will not immediately kill their prey. They will probably store them away in their lair. As long as we can catch up to them, perhaps we can still save the three of them.”

“Lair?” Lin Mu spoke with a bitter smile, “Several hundred of them were already this strong, it probably would not be good for us to charge into their lair.”

Fang Han also nodded, “The ones sent out to catch food would be the lowest rank beasts. Inside the lair, there could be a queen bee or a higher ranked existence!”

With their current situation, not to mention reaching the honeycomb, if they were attacked on the road with their current strength, they might not be able to successfully survive this attack.

“I have a way!”

“Bring a few giant bee corpses over!”

Lin Mu and Fang Han carefully gathered two intact giant bee corpses.

“This is a demon beast called the giant bee. It has very basic senses and does not have high intelligence.” Chu Tian spoke as he used his sword to cut open the giant bee corpses. He pulled out a dark yellow waxy liquid that had a strange smell, “This is called beeswax. As long as we cover ourselves in this, the giant bees will not attack us!”

Lin Mu and Fang Han revealed looks of awe.

They were mercenaries so they knew nothing about this area, but Chu Tian had once again shown how erudite he was. If they could use this method to avoid being attacked, then it wouldn’t be certain that they would be killed in the giant bees’ lair!

They couldn’t just leave the three of them, right?

Even if they knew it was very dangerous, they still had no choice but to go!
