Chapter 957

957 Subduing the flying Scorpion

300 km Southwest of high heaven city was a mountain range. These mountains were steep and deep, covered by forests, and there were all kinds of birds and beasts in the forests. Even in broad daylight, one could see the clouds lingering in the mountains. Standing at a high place, one could see the waves and clouds flying under the mountains, and the water vapor rising. Occasionally, when the sun shone into some deep valleys, one could even see some darkness in them. Or a rainbow-like poisonous miasma.

Two hundred kilometers into this mountainous area, there was a steep cliff that looked like a Sword’s Edge. Deep ravines and ravines crisscrossed under the sword’s edge. This deep valley was covered in a layer of black fog all year round, and strange trees with jagged leaves grew in the deep valley. On both sides of the mountain walls and cracks, there were many pitch-black holes with a diameter of more than two meters that led underground. This was the flying Scorpion nest that was closest to high heaven city.

Xia Pingan’s judgment was correct.

Just now, when high heaven city’s defensive array had been activated, the power of the five elements within tens of thousands of square kilometers of high heaven city had surged. In the blink of an eye, the area where high heaven city was located in the distance had been completely covered by fog. This disturbance had naturally alerted the flying scorpions in the nest.

These flying scorpions lived underground and were most sensitive to changes in earth energy. The moment there was a big movement in high firmament city, the flying scorpions here immediately sensed it.

One after another, huge mature flying scorpions quickly came out of the caves in the valley.

These flying scorpions, when they matured, not including the length of their tails, just the length of their heads, chests, and abdomens were between five to seven meters. Including their tails, the length of their bodies was about twelve to fifteen meters, which could be called huge. The flying scorpions were pitch-black all over as if they were covered with a layer of hard armor. They had 8 legs on both sides of their slim and long bodies. Their tails with poisonous stingers stood on their hindquarters like flagpoles. In front of their bodies, there was a pair of huge pincers. The only difference between them and common scorpions was that there was a pair of pitch-black and slim insect-like shells on the back of their hindquarters. Under the shells, there were wings of these flying scorpions.

The flying scorpions that came out of the caves ran as if they were flying in the deep and rugged Valley. Some of the flying scorpions climbed onto the tall trees in the valley in the blink of an eye, while some of the flying scorpions walked on the vertical cliffs as if they were on flat ground. After a short while, many flying scorpions climbed to the top of the sword-like cliffs and peaks. They looked in the direction of high heaven city with their blood-red eyes, the poisonous needles on their tails swaying with a vigilant look.

Red-crowned cranes moved very fast, especially when they used gliding skills. They could reach above 200 km/H. With the blessing of secret methods, Xia Pingan’s speed easily broke through 400 km/H.

Therefore, after leaving Lingxiao city, Xia Pingan took about an hour to fly to the mountain area.

In order not to ‘alert the Scorpions’, Xia Pingan, who was flying in the air, even cast an invisible illusion on his facility so that the flying scorpions could not discover him.

When Xia ping ‘an arrived in the sky above the nest of the flying scorpions, she didn’t have to look for them at all. She could already see the huge flying scorpions on the mountaintop looking in the direction of high firmament city.Nnêw n0vel chapters are published at novelhall.com

Of course, these flying scorpions didn’t notice that Xia Pingan had already flown over their heads and was circling in the air.

these flying scorpions really don’t look like they can be dealt with by ordinary soldiers, ” Xia Pingan said softly as he observed these flying scorpions from the air. Judging from their appearance, the attacking power of these flying scorpions ‘huge pincers was already shocking. Moreover, the poisonous stingers on their tails could penetrate the target from all angles from a high altitude during a battle, making it impossible for one to guard against them. Moreover, the outer shell of these flying scorpions looked like a layer of iron plate. Ordinary arrows might be able to hit it. Moreover, the fact that these flying scorpions could easily climb to the top of the mountain in such a dangerous environment showed that they were very athletic. Their running speed was probably faster than ordinary horses.

The hole that could allow the huge flying scorpions to enter and exit was already big enough for people to enter.

The nest of flying scorpions was especially dark. Thankfully, there was a Natural Fluorite mine in the mountain and underground. Not knowing whether it was a coincidence or that these flying scorpions chose to build their nest here on purpose, the pale green luster of the fluorite adorned the nest of flying scorpions, making it less depressing.

Under the trembling gaze of all the flying scorpions, Xia Pingan arrived at the deepest part of the nest in just a few moments. He saw that the nest was densely packed with flying scorpions of all sizes, as well as the flying Scorpion King, whose entire body was golden.

All the flying scorpions prostrated on the ground, trembling, not daring to move.

In the mountain behind the flying Scorpion King, the boundary talisman of the flying Scorpion’s nest was hidden.

With the intention of giving it a try, Xia Pingan once again tried to use his own divine power to wrap a trace of the six-winged ROC King’s aura and invade the dimmed flying Scorpion boundary talisman.

In just a few seconds, the dim boundary talisman of the flying Scorpion’s nest greedily devoured Xia Pingan’s divine power like a dry sponge that had encountered water. After Xia Pingan had consumed nearly 1000 points of divine power, the originally gray boundary talisman of the flying Scorpion’s nest seemed to have been activated again. It suddenly burned up and emitted a brilliant red light.

When the boundary talisman in the nest of the flying scorpions started to burn again, Xia Pingan suddenly felt a close connection with these flying scorpions. All the flying scorpions in the nest had suddenly become his summoned creatures.

All the flying scorpions in the nest became excited at once. They were No Longer Quivering, afraid, or fearful; instead, they became extremely excited. Under the eye of heavenly Dao, the gloomy flames on the bodies of all the flying scorpions no longer shrank or quivered; instead, they emitted more dazzling brilliance.

The dense horde of flying scorpions swarmed toward Xia ping ‘an. The flying Scorpion King obediently crawled in front of Xia ping ‘an and used its huge pincers to gently rub against Xia ping’ an’s leg. Then, it laid down on the ground.

A few minutes later, Xia Pingan rode out of the nest on the back of the flying Scorpion King with a happy smile on his face.

Three hours later, when Xia Pingan appeared outside Lingxiao city with seven hundred flying scorpions, Xue Rengui, who was standing on top of the city wall, could hardly believe his eyes.

“Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord!”

“Open the city gates!” Xia Pingan’s calm voice was heard.

The city gates of high firmament city opened. Xue Rengui was at the city gates and saw Xia Pingan riding on a huge golden flying Scorpion, leading a group of flying scorpions into the city.
