Chapter 855: Retreating From Battle

“The next battle will involve my soul, and I won’t be able to control my powers. Once you’re hit, you’ll still end up suffering even after being treated.”

A faint silhouette appeared on Liu Jie’s shoulder.

The flower-like silhouettes formed an elegant small orchid-shaped praying mantis.

When the elegant small praying mantis appeared, the faces of the other participants of the Martial Stage fell.

Liu Jie had already summoned three carcinoma feys during his fights—the Dimensional Light Moth, Blade Queen Bee, and Hypha Tapeworm.

However, from the earlier confrontation, the crowd already knew that the Hypha Tapeworm was actually the fourth carcinoma fey that Liu Jie had revealed.

During the confrontation, Liu Jie had revealed the Dead Soul Demon Insect, but he had yet to summon it during battle until now.

The Dead Soul Demon Insect’s attacks mainly targeted souls. Hence, it was extremely difficult to defend against its attacks.

Not everyone could handle the pain of a soul injury. As such, the challengers who were about to launch an attrition battle now wanted to back out.

The Hypha Tapeworm’s appearance proved that it would be useless to try the tactic of an attrition battle to take down Liu Jie.

The challengers assessed their own powers and determined that it would be a struggle for them to defeat the revived insect colony.

Moreover, they did not know if Liu Jie still had other carcinoma feys that he had yet to summon.

The gazes of the remaining challengers of the Martial Stage were grim, while the disciples who planned on participating in the Martial Arts Stage also had amazement in their eyes.

The participants of the Martial Stage were mostly not Creation Masters. Those that were were only Class 2 at best.

Lin Yuan knew that Liu Jie had eight carcinoma feys under his control, and he had already summoned half of them.

Liu Jie had sealed off the Insect Queen’s abilities from the beginning of the battles and hid it in the Dimensional Light Moth’s body.

He had only instructed the Insect Queen to produce the 30 Shield Ladybugs to act as the Blade Queen Bee’s hosts for the Blade Worms.

Later, he had instructed the Insect Queen to produce 5 Shield Ladybugs to increase the Blade Worms’ defense.

If Liu Jie released the Insect Queen and used it in conjunction with the Hypa Tapeworm and Dead Soul Demon Insect, his power would be multiplied to an unimaginable level even if the Blade Queen Bee could no longer produce eggs.

The Insect Queen had reached Diamond X/Fantasy, and every insect-type fey that it produced would be Diamond X/Flawless.

Just the thought of a sea of Diamond X/Flawless insects was horrifying.

However, Lin Yuan could not agree with what Gao Feng had said.

As strong as Liu Jie was, he was not at an invincible level.

If Lin Yuan stepped onto the Martial Stage, one blast of the Spirit Essence Explosion would destroy Liu Jie’s insect colony.

Lin Yuan’s use of Spirit Essence Explosion only used a small amount of spirit qi and did not use up much spiritual power.

The Dead Soul Demon Insect’s attacks on the soul would also be useless on Lin Yuan because he had contracted a sacred source lifeform.

The sacred source lifeforms that had formed marrow contracts with spirit qi professionals usually went on to live in the spirit qi professional’s soul and acted as the best wall of defense for the soul.

Moreover, Lin Yuan also had the Myth III Vicious Poison Law that could perfectly counter the Hypha Tapeworm’s Decaying Bacteria.

Liu Jie had not displayed his full power yet, and Lin Yuan did not know how strong Liu Jie’s sacred source lifeform was.

To determine who would win between Liu Jie and Lin Yuan, it would depend on whether Liu Jie was able to handle Lin Yuan’s secret weapon, the Dark Death World’s Night Crow Wither Attack.

While Gao Feng marveled at Liu Jie’s power, he watched the reactions of the other challengers.

Suddenly, a strange idea struck him.
