Chapter 979
Chapter 979
The temperature plummeted, the chill in the ice cave was piercing, and the narrow space inside the cave caused everyone to feel particularly depressed, but all these were not the source of fear at all.
What everyone is afraid of is that hidden in this seemingly crystal-clear ice is a strange thing that can kill a cultivator, the ice silkworm!
"Quick, hurry up!"
In the ice cave, Tian Zhi in the crowd kept urging him to keep his body away from the inner wall of the ice cave as much as possible, for fear of attracting ice silkworms.
His urging voice from time to time also made everyone feel confused.
"Be quiet!" Tian Python reprimanded loudly.
On the other hand, Tianhao, who is very nervous, grabbed Tianzhi's wrist indifferently, and said with a smile: "Brother Tianzhi, I'm so afraid! We all have advanced cultivation bases. Although the ice silkworm is not afraid of true energy, it is also afraid that the sharp edge of the knife will break from time to time. .”
Raising the long sword in his hand, Tianhao continued: "If there are ice silkworms appearing, brother will block them for you."
Because of his face, Tianzhi reprimanded: "Am I afraid of ice silkworms? I'm just afraid that all of us immortals will make unnecessary sacrifices! It's only an hour before midnight. We have entered the ice cave for a long time, but we haven't found the exit yet. This will only lead to a desperate situation for everyone.”
The more he talked, the more angry he became, and the more he talked about Tianzhi, the more fearful he became. That far-fetched explanation seemed pale and powerless.
He began to complain, "In another hour, if you can't get out of the ice cave, the ice silkworms will wake up from hibernation in the middle of the night, and tens of thousands of ice silkworms will occupy the entire ice cave, which can be said to be pervasive. How can mere swords and swords kill them all? You and I will eventually become the food of ice silkworms. I have said long ago that those who do great things make haste makes waste. We should not rush for a while. We should continue to wait until the next time The ice silkworm hibernates, so we have more time to go into the cave to find a way out, but you just don't listen, you have to believe that Lu Ming's nonsense, now it's okay!"
Tianzhi, who was full of anger and chattered, annoyed everyone. The already tense atmosphere became more tense because of him.
It seemed that no one paid any attention to him, the more confidently he spoke.
Suddenly, Lu Ming, who was walking in the front, stopped and raised his hand to make a silent gesture.
"Everyone, keep quiet and hold your breath!"
Lu Ming reminded with a solemn expression, his sharp eyes looked not far away, at the corner of the ice cave, the ice surface of that place made one's scalp tingle.
Following his gaze, Tianjiao covered her mouth and widened her eyes.
On the flat and smooth ice surface, there are densely packed honeycomb-shaped holes, and in each hole there is a crystal-clear worm as small as a grain of rice. They are slowly wriggling, and this thing is the rumored extremely dangerous ice silkworm. .
"Ice, it's ice silkworms!"
Tianzhi glanced at it, but felt a chill running down his back, muttering incessantly, and stepped back in fear.
"Don't move!" Lu Ming's face darkened, his voice was lowered, and he reprimanded: "In addition to the keen sense of smell, ice silkworms are also quite keen in vision and hearing. Any sound or noise will completely wake them up! At this moment, they are just awake. Foreshadowing, the ice silkworms here are the first to wake up, which means that we are going in the right direction, and we should be able to find the exit through here!"
Hearing this, everyone was too frightened to move or breathe.
Tian Zhi, who had been bluffing before, also subconsciously covered his mouth.
"Follow me, I will protect you!"
After Lu Ming finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and directly hooked Tianjiao's neck, buried her head in his arms, covered her head and body with the open clothes, and walked forward with her half covered.
Cheek was pressed against Lu Ming's chest, and Tianjiao, who was being cared for by the other party, heard Lu Ming's strong heartbeat, and the fear in her heart disappeared at this moment.
Her eyes moved and landed on Lu Ming's lower abdomen, where there was what the immortals wanted, the five-element ring!
At this moment, she could break open Lu Ming's belly at any time and take out the treasure that the fairy clan wanted, but she didn't have any thoughts in her heart, and even hugged Lu Ming's waist tightly with both hands.
In the bone-chilling ice cave, she felt unprecedented warmth, clinging to Lu Ming's arms, she felt that the whole world had nothing to do with her, solid and peaceful.
Lu Ming protected her, and quickly crossed this corner, and there was a glimmer of light ahead, shining through the moonlight, that was the exit leading to the back of the iceberg.
Lu Ming quickened his pace and waved for everyone to follow.
Behind him, everyone walked cautiously one by one, Tianmang made a gesture of silence, indicating that everyone should try not to make a sound, the quieter the better.
Fortunately, this moment is only a precursor to the recovery of the ice silkworms. These ice silkworms have not yet fully awakened and have not launched an attack for the time being.
"Let's go, brother Tianzhi, don't hesitate!"
Tianzhi, who was originally hiding at the end, saw that everyone had passed by, and the ice silkworm at the corner of the ice cave began to squirm more and more violently, and began to hesitate.
Seeing that he was trembling, Tianhao dragged him towards the corner. At this moment, there were ice silkworms squirming and falling down one by one from the ice wall at the top.
Tianhao was in front, passing through cautiously, grabbing Tianzhi's hand to pull him over, but at this moment, a sudden change occurred.
pat!
An ice silkworm that fell from the top of the ice wall landed on the back of Tianzhi's hand.
Tianzhi trembled all over, his feet were like clamps, holding his breath at this moment, his eyes widened, looking at the ice silkworm wriggling on the back of his hand.
Tian Hao who was in front of him also saw this scene, he reminded in a low voice: "Brother Tianzhi, shake off the ice silkworms, let's rush out together, this place can't hesitate or it will become more dangerous."
But the terrified Tianzhi dared not move now.
Outside the entrance of the cave in the distance, everyone had already stepped out of the iceberg. Looking back at the scene in the cave, they were anxious, but they didn't dare to shout loudly, urging Tianzhi to make a decisive decision.
The more you hesitate, the more critical the situation becomes. More and more ice silkworms squirmed out of the honeycomb-like holes on the ice wall. They began to wake up, and some of them had already gathered here, smelling the smell of flesh and blood. The smell intensified their speed.
"Hurry up, Brother Tianzhi!"
The ice silkworms are densely packed all around, and more and more are gathering, if you don't leave, you really can't leave.
Tianhao made a decisive decision, and shook the hand holding Tianzhi's arm vigorously.
It was the ice silkworm that landed on the back of Tianzhi's hand. Although it was shaken off, Tianzhi, who was nervous, was frightened.
"what……"
With a scream, Tianzhi yanked Tianhao hard, and with the help of the impact, true energy gushed out from his body, rushing towards the entrance of the cave like lightning!Regardless of Tianhao behind him, Tianzhi at this moment only wanted to run for his life, and he rushed out of the cave in an instant, just now he was panting heavily, his eyes were full of fear!
But his sudden tug made Tianhao, who had restrained his anger, unsteady and fell to the ground.
shuh...
The screams and the surge of true energy made the ice silkworms wake up in an instant, and then one by one, like fleas, they jumped from the ice wall to Tianhao.
"Hao'er!"
Tianmang didn't dare to make a sound, the dull exclamation could only echo in his throat, seeing his son wrapped in ice silkworms, he desperately prepared to rush towards the cave.
"Uncle, don't go, it's dangerous!"
Tianjiao grabbed the sky python, and the ice silkworms in the cave had woken up, and now entering would be a dead end.
But how can Tianmang watch his son being swallowed and drowned by ice silkworms, even if he is dead, he will rush in.
"I'll try it!"
At this moment, a voice came from beside him, it was Lu Ming!
