Chapter 81

A cluster of black bees, dark and dense like a rolling black cloud, hovered in the air. The black bees were pitch black with faint golden stripes in a wavy pattern. Their sharp teeth were like hooks, and their tails were cold and menacing, with two pairs of translucent black-gold wings. At first glance, they appeared extremely fierce.

This swarm of black bees covered a large part of the sky. Wu Ya was both surprised and angry to see that the numerous black bees dared not attack the young Taoist.

These black bees were called Winged Divine Bees, true insects used in sorcery, highly venomous and fond of eating flesh. The venom in their tails was even more potent; once stung, the venom would spread through the bloodstream in an instant, more terrifying than the bamboo sliver insect. Most importantly, even after using their tails to sting, the Winged Divine Bees could regrow their stingers within a day and would not die.

Winged Divine Bees were extremely rare and had pure bloodlines. The nest of this swarm was obtained by the First True Man of Dragon Tiger Mountain after much effort. Wu Ya, the only disciple who practiced sorcery, was given these Winged Divine Bees.

Wu Ya, lacking the necessary skills, could only take a pill to emit a foul odor, keeping the Winged Divine Bees at bay and directing them to hunt other prey. This was his method of controlling the Winged Divine Bees.

If he could achieve success in sorcery and control these insects, even a practitioner at the Gangsha realm might not survive an attack by these Winged Divine Bees.

But why were these inherently fierce Winged Divine Bees, which even Gangsha practitioners feared, scared of the Taoist and dared not approach?

"Damn it!" Wu Ya wanted to control the insects, but for this swarm of Winged Divine Bees, he could only protect himself with pills and had no means to control them.

Qin Xianyu stood in place, stunned for a moment.

Pain surged within his body, as if something was devouring his flesh.

It was the insect, the insect created by Master Guanxu. But even Master Guanxu might not have expected that this insect would be so powerful.

Qin Xianyu's face turned pale as he struggled to circulate his true qi to suppress it.

As the insect inside him became active, the Winged Divine Bees outside did not dare to approach.

Qin Xianyu had a vague suspicion that the Winged Divine Bees were afraid of the insect inside him, which was why they did not dare to come closer. It seemed that the insect inside him had been triggered by these Winged Divine Bees.

"These black bees must be true insects, otherwise they wouldn't have caused the insect inside me to react."

Qin Xianyu barely suppressed the disturbance inside him and thought, "But it seems that the insect inside me is of a higher grade, otherwise these black bees wouldn't be so afraid."

The young man suddenly felt a bit self-deprecating. The insect inside him had always been like a sharp blade hanging over his head, ready to strike at any moment, and would surely take his life in a few years. Yet, unexpectedly, it had saved his life this time.

Qin Xianyu looked up at the stunned Wu Ya and raised his long sword, saying slowly, "It seems that your true insects are still afraid of me. Since that's the case, I'll give you another strike."

Qin Xianyu walked toward him.

To his surprise, as soon as he took a step, the numerous Winged Divine Bees in the air were startled and scattered, flying around in the sky.

After a moment, the thousands of Winged Divine Bees buzzed and surged toward the black bag.

This was a return to the nest!

In the past, Wu Ya only needed to open the bag and tap it a few times, and the Winged Divine Bees would all return to the nest. But this was the first time they had been so startled and returned to the nest on their own.

Wu Ya gritted his teeth, tightly tied the bag, and said in a dark voice, "A bunch of useless things, sting this little Taoist to death for me!"

The black bag remained closed, and the thousands of Winged Divine Bees could not return to the nest, so they buzzed loudly.

At this moment, Qin Xianyu took another step forward.

Buzz!!

The Winged Divine Bees scattered, and dozens of them were pushed onto Wu Ya's body.

Startled, the Winged Divine Bees, regardless of who it was, recognized a living creature with flowing blood and began to tear at the flesh with their hooked teeth, tearing off large pieces of flesh.

Wu Ya let out a惨嚎.

Some Winged Divine Bees even flew into his mouth.

Others stung Wu Ya with their tails.

"This..."

Qin Xianyu drew a sharp breath, feeling a bit horrified.

The Winged Divine Bees, like a rolling black cloud, surged toward the distance. In just a few breaths, Wu Ya's face was unrecognizable, his flesh torn, and his bones and internal organs visible, a gruesome sight.

"These black bees are too powerful," Qin Xianyu felt a chill down his spine. "It seems Wu Ya doesn't know how to control these black bees, otherwise he wouldn't have suffered this backlash. With such fierce black bees, no wonder even a martial arts grandmaster can't resist them. Even if they can release their internal energy to repel foreign objects, how can they fend off these fierce insects?"

Qin Xianyu thought about this, looking at the rolling black cloud in the sky, unsure of what to do.

If he left these black bees unchecked, the people and livestock nearby would surely become their prey, poisoned and torn apart.

"How can I get rid of them?"

Thinking about this, Qin Xianyu looked at the black bag, suppressing the disgust from Wu Ya's gruesome corpse, picked up the bag, and opened it, shaking it and throwing it to the ground.

With Wu Ya's example, Qin Xianyu was afraid that the black bees would return to the nest and poison him as well, ending up like Wu Ya.

However, after opening the black bag, the Winged Divine Bees continued to hover and showed no signs of returning to the nest.

Qin Xianyu was stunned and thought, "They didn't return to the nest? What's going on?"

Buzz!

The Winged Divine Bees suddenly surged away.

Qin Xianyu looked up and saw Ye Qing and Old Liu approaching.

These two martial arts experts had more robust blood and qi than ordinary people, and the Winged Divine Bees had already sensed them from a distance, surging forward to tear and devour them.

"Bad!" Qin Xianyu took a deep breath and shouted, "Run!"

Ye Qing and Old Liu also saw this and showed looks of horror.

Even though they were both internal energy experts, they seemed so weak in the face of thousands of venomous bees. Qin Xianyu didn't expect them to be able to resist, as even Wu Ya, who could control the insects and had nearly eight inches of internal energy, had died a tragic death.

"What should I do? If I don't find a way, they won't survive."

Qin Xianyu, in a hurry, picked up the black bag and suddenly noticed a hard object inside, as large as an iron pot, realizing it was a nest.

Recalling how Wu Ya had tapped the bag three times earlier, a light bulb went off in his head.

He slapped the black bag once and was about to tap it again when he saw the numerous Winged Divine Bees flying back toward him.

It turned out that to release the insects, one needed to tap three times, but to return them to the nest, only one tap was needed.

Qin Xianyu opened the bag, prepared to throw it away if things went wrong.

However, the Winged Divine Bees did not dare to approach Qin Xianyu. They only returned to the nest because of their instinct to do so, overcoming their fear.

Qin Xianyu watched as the black cloud of bees returned to the nest.

The thousands of Winged Divine Bees, as they entered the bag, stacked their chests and abdomens together, folding their wings inward, forming a small black-gold ball.

Ye Qing and Old Liu witnessed this, feeling a mix of relief and shock.

The black cloud in the sky was gone in an instant, and the sky cleared.

"Is this divine magic?"
