I'm Dreaming of a Journey to the West

Chapter 56: Kill 8 of the desperate nine-headed insect!

"Kill them all!!!"

The Nine-Headed Insect swung his halberd forward and shouted, commanding the demons to launch a fierce attack on Fairy Hibiscus and the Snow Realm Deer. After receiving his order, the demons behind him raised all kinds of weapons in their hands and rushed towards Fairy Hibiscus and the Snow Realm Deer like a tide.

"mob!"

Li Chen looked at the demons before him, who lacked even the most basic tactics and only knew how to charge mindlessly, and a trace of contempt welled up in his heart. His lips curled slightly, revealing a mocking smile. Then, he turned to the Snow Realm Divine Deer beside him and whispered, "Snow Realm Divine Deer, quickly use the Bitter Storm! Let these ignorant demons taste the ice of the divine realm!"

The Snow Realm Divine Deer seemed to understand Li Chen's words. It raised its head high, its antlers gleaming with dazzling light. Then, a tremendous icy wind howled through the thousand-year-old ice cave! The thousand-year-old ice and the divine ice of the Snow Realm Divine Deer merged together, forming an extremely powerful cold current. Like a surging ocean wave, it swept towards the demons led by the Nine-Headed Insect!

Wherever this cold current passed, the air temperature plummeted, as if the entire world had frozen. The demons charging ahead were instantly frozen into ice sculptures, unable to move. The demons behind were driven back repeatedly by the sudden chill.

Among this group of various demons, except for the Nine-Headed Insect with powerful magic power who was able to use his magic power to resist the severe cold at the first time, the rest of the demons, without exception, were all shivering and trembling in the biting cold wind.

They all shouted in unison:

"Why is it so cold?"

"It's really too cold!"

"My king, please save us! If this continues, we will freeze to death!"

You know, these demons have all been blessed and protected by the power of the Water Witch. Normally, they wouldn't be afraid even of a thousand-year-old ice. However, they never expected that the blizzard summoned by the deer before them would actually make them feel a bone-chilling chill deep within their souls!

"I didn't expect you to have such a formidable helper! I'm unlucky. I won't play with you anymore. I'm leaving first!" The Nine-headed Insect said as he tried to abandon his men and escape alone. But who would have thought that as soon as he made a move, his feet were tightly entangled by two emerald green vines.

It turned out to be the Hibiscus Fairy who had taken action. She had successfully trapped the Nine-Headed Insect! With a flick of her delicate hand, a brilliant beam of light shot out, transforming into a vast net of light that firmly trapped the Nine-Headed Insect. Her beautiful eyes flickered as she smiled at Li Chen, a smile as captivating as a blooming spring flower, signaling him to attack without hesitation. Li Chen, overjoyed, leaped from the back of the Snow Deer.

"Soul Annihilation Axe, go!" Li Chen shouted softly, clasping his hands together and pouring the surging spiritual energy into the magic weapon in his hands. The Soul Annihilation Axe instantly glowed brightly, humming, and in the blink of an eye, it expanded into a giant axe as big as a mountain. With unparalleled power, it struck the Nine-Headed Insect trapped in the light net!

"No...no!" The Nine-Headed Insect stared at the massive axe approaching, a look of despair and terror on his face. He struggled desperately to escape, but his feet seemed to be nailed to the ground, unable to move an inch. His heart was filled with fear. This terrifying axe seemed to be able to tear the world apart with ease, making him feel an unprecedented threat of death.

"Help...! No, no!" The Nine-Headed Insect let out a series of shrill howls, their voices resounding through the air. However, this did nothing to change anything. The massive axe struck him with the force of a mountain crushing an egg. With a loud "crack," the Nine-Headed Insect's massive body trembled violently, and its two heads were chopped off, blood splattering everywhere in a scene of unparalleled bloodshed and brutality. But all this was far from over, for the Nine-Headed Insect possessed an extremely tenacious vitality. As long as one head remained, it could continuously regenerate and recover.

"You are such a despicable fellow! How dare you hurt my head? When I regain my freedom one day, I will make you pay a heavy price. You will endure thousands of tortures and suffer all kinds of torment, and finally die miserably in endless pain!" The Nine-headed Insect, whose two heads had been chopped off, glared at Li Chen and roared. However, it was completely unaware of the Annihilation Soul Axe that was constantly growing above its head! At this moment, the axe was gathering even more powerful force, and it slammed down on the Nine-headed Insect like a mountain crushing an egg!

Immediately afterwards, the Nine-Headed Insect let out a howl several times more shrill than the previous one, echoing throughout the Millennium Ice Cave. This time, three more of its heads were severed! These three newly detached heads, along with the two previously, dyed the ground a brilliant crimson, resembling a sea of ​​blood. The five remaining heads, detached from their bodies, rolled across the icy ground like ripe watermelons.

"I'll fight you!"

The Nine-Headed Insect endured the excruciating pain of having its head severed, then channeled all its magical power to forcibly break the vines holding the Hibiscus Fairy. Raising its halberd, it charged recklessly towards Li Chen. Behind him, a trail of bright red footprints followed!

The reason he chose to attack Li Chen now was actually the optimal solution. Because the Annihilation Soul Axe had already gathered even more power, retreating was impossible. The only way was to fight to the death! Only then would there be a glimmer of hope!

But even so, his head was still cut by the sharp aura released by the Annihilation Soul Axe! This time, three more heads were chopped off!

The fierce attack he had just unleashed with such reckless abandon was easily avoided by Li Chen! He stared at Li Chen with eyes wide open, filled with despair and unwillingness! He felt despair because all eight of his proud heads had been ruthlessly cut off by Li Chen! His resentment stemmed from the fact that their side had originally enjoyed a huge advantage in numbers and ease, but who could have predicted such a dramatic reversal in the blink of an eye, with the hunter becoming the prey in an instant!

"Nine-headed Insect, you have committed countless evil deeds and aided the tyrant! Today is the day you die!"

Li Chen acted decisively and quickly converted his own power into Xiaobailong's power, preparing to use Xiaobailong's power to put an end to this hateful monster that had betrayed Xiaobailong!

“Master, be careful!!”

Fairy Hibiscus's terrified scream echoed throughout the room. Her face was as pale as paper, her eyes revealing despair and helplessness. She swiftly swung the whip in her hand, as if racing against time. The whip, like a nimble venomous snake, quickly wrapped around Li Chen's waist.

With a strong pull from her, Li Chen was pulled back to her side. His body tilted due to inertia, but he quickly stabilized his footing.

"Fairy Hibiscus! What are you doing?!" Li Chen questioned angrily, his face full of confusion and anger. However, Fairy Hibiscus did not respond to his question. Her expression was extremely serious, as if she was facing a life-or-death test.

At this moment, Li Chen suddenly realized something. He turned his head sharply, his gaze fixed on the spot where he had just stood. There, a massive, majestic pillar of water shot up into the sky! This pillar of water exuded a suffocating aura, and its terrifying power caused the entire Millennium Ice Cave to tremble violently, as if it would collapse at any moment.

Li Chen's heartbeat instantly accelerated, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. If Fairy Furong hadn't pulled him away in time, he would have been wiped out by this powerful force.

He stared blankly at the scene, eyes wide open, a deep sense of fear and awe welling up in his heart. The appearance of this water pillar of light was so strange that it reminded him of a terrifying legendary being—Gong Gong, the Grandmaster of Water, one of the Twelve Ancestral Witches and one of the four bosses in Dream Journey to the West.

That terrifying deity who had caused devastating floods in ancient times and brought endless disasters to the world. Could it be that she had truly arrived here? Li Chen's thoughts began to swirl, and he had no idea how to respond. Meanwhile, Fairy Hibiscus stared intently at the beam of water light, her eyes revealing a complex expression, as if she were contemplating something important.

At this moment, the atmosphere around them became increasingly tense and oppressive, as if a pair of invisible giant hands were tightly strangling their throats, making it almost impossible for them to breathe normally...
