“Sacred Radiance!”

As his rapidly decreasing health alarmed him, Mo Xiao quickly used his purification skill.

Immediately, a ball of green mist spread out from his body.

His HP, which had been plummeting, stopped declining at that moment.

Relieved, Mo Xiao heaved a sigh of relief and once again released the Illusion Breaking Technique on the mother nest.

Looking at the attribute panel in front of him, Mo Xiao’s expression was very strange.

Because the attributes of this Bug Mother Nest were very strange. Despite being a Diamond-level boss, its HP was only 200 points, its agility was 0, and its strength was pitiful.

However, its endurance and spirit were terrifyingly high.

Mo Xiao, with his brutal power, could easily take it down in one hit.

However, looking at the skill panel of the mother nest, it seemed very challenging to get close to it.

Just as Mo Xiao was thinking about how to deal with the mother nest, the massive nest suddenly trembled.

The previously open shell instantly closed, and on its smooth surface, mysterious small holes slowly opened.

In the next moment, countless strange creatures resembling ants crawled out of these small holes, glaring at Mo Xiao with fierce expressions.

“Are these the warriors summoned by the nest? This Heaven-reaching Tower seems to enjoy group fights!” Mo Xiao sighed helplessly and once again used the Illusion Breaking Technique to examine the attributes of these Bug Tribe warriors.

Swarm Defense: Summons special shells within a certain range, continuously providing additional shields.

Selfless Protection: Abandons all defense, instantly appearing in front of the target that needs protection, taking the attack on its behalf.

Looking at the attribute panel, Mo Xiao’s brows furrowed.

Although these attributes were slightly weaker than the earlier Flying Mantis and without the annoying mosquitoes, the number of Bug Tribe warriors was overwhelming.

It had only been half a minute since the mother nest’s shell closed, and there were already 50 to 60 of them. They showed no intention of attacking, merely surrounding the nest.

“Let’s give it a try first...”

Mo Xiao muttered, and his Thousand Mechanism Umbrella instantly transformed into a bow and arrow, taking aim at the nearby mother nest.

In the next moment, a silver-white arrow instantly tore through the air and headed straight for the mother nest.

Just as the arrow was about to hit the mother nest, one of the Bug Tribe warriors suddenly leaped and instantly appeared in front of the arrow.

-1,790!

Immediately, a high damage appeared on the bug clan warrior’s body, but the bug tribe mother nest was unscathed.

“Selfless Protection... That’s why it summoned so many of these warriors. It seems impossible to get close to the mother nest before eliminating them,” Mo Xiao said with a serious expression, gazing at the mother nest not far away.

Right at this moment, the mother nest trembled once more, and the hole that had summoned the bug clan warriors earlier slowly closed. At the same time, it appeared directly above it again.

Just as Mo Xiao was feeling puzzled, a red ray of light instantly crossed the entire plain and instantly appeared in front of him.

In an instant, Mo Xiao saw a white light flash.

A violent roar instantly sounded.

Even Mo Xiao barely had time to raise his shield in front of him.

“Boom!”

As a deafening blast echoed, Mo Xiao was sent flying and crashed heavily onto the ground not far away.

[-500!]

“An explosion? What’s going on?” Mo Xiao looked bewildered as he saw his health drop by five hundred points.

There was no mention of this skill on the mother nest’s panel.

What was happening?

“Could it be these creatures it summoned?”

Just as Mo Xiao was puzzled, two more red beams of light shot up into the sky and appeared on both sides, as if they wanted to blow him up directly.

Mo Xiao’s pupils shrank, and two shields appeared on both sides, enveloping him.

“Boom! Boom!”

Two more explosions sounded.

Mo Xiao was once again sent flying.

[-500!]

Although the damage was still five hundred points, two consecutive explosions almost killed Mo Xiao.

“Explosive bug?” Mo Xiao, who was on the ground, could barely see what was flying over.

It was just an Explosive Bug, but from the looks of it, the damage of this Explosive Bug seemed to be fixed 500 points. Regardless of how many hit him, he would only lose 500 health.

However, its speed was astonishing, and Mo Xiao couldn’t evade it in time.

Mo Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly and directly used the Divine Healing Technique, instantly filling up his health points.

“Phew... Fortunately, the Divine Healing Technique can still be used.” Mo Xiao let out a sigh of relief, then slapped the ground with his large hand. Immediately, countless earthen walls sprang up, surrounding him and leaving only the front exposed.

It seemed to have specially left an attack direction for the Explosive Bug.

“It seems that before attacking, 1 have to figure out the attack frequency of this explosive bug.” At that moment, the terrifying red light appeared once again, almost instantly reaching Mo Xiao.

Seeing this, he raised his shield and swung it violently.

“Clang!”

In an instant, a red streak of light flew back along the previous trajectory..
