Chapter 410 The 22Nd Floor, Golden Armor Beetle
"Bang!"
When Cui Tianming's cow hair needle pierced into the body of the Golden Horn Rhino, the strength of the Golden Horn Rhino instantly surged to a higher level.
Lu Yu, who was blocking the Golden Horn Rhino with his hands, was instantly thrown away by a powerful force.
However, he was mentally prepared and gracefully flipped in the air, then landed steadily on the ground.
"Heh, you dodged pretty fast. But it doesn't matter, this Golden Horn Rhino has gone berserk and its strength has increased to a higher level. So, just wait to die!"
Cui Tianming, with red eyes, watched the ferocious Golden Horn Rhino and burst into laughter.
"It's just a small improvement, what's there to be so happy about?"
After Lu Yu landed, he glanced at Cui Tianming and helplessly shrugged.
Although he was currently only at the first level of the Gold Core realm, due to absorbing five times the amount of additional spiritual power earlier, his current strength was not inferior to a cultivator at the third level of the Gold Core realm.
As for the Golden Horn Rhino, which barely reached the second level of the Gold Core realm, it was just caught off guard and threw him away.
"Don't pretend. I'm afraid you're already seriously injured now, right?"
"Serious injury? Do you think this counts as a serious injury?"
While speaking, Lu Yu extended a hand.
"Bang!"
A heavy impact sound.
The charging Golden Horn Rhino was actually blocked by his hand alone.
Obviously, Lu Yu not only was unharmed, but also had the strength to deal with this enhanced Golden Horn Rhino.
"This is impossible!"
Cui Tianming exclaimed, then suddenly spewed out a mouthful of blood.
Lu Yu sneered, then fiercely grabbed the horn of the Golden Horn Rhino with his right hand and exerted force.
"Swish..."
The huge Golden Horn Rhino was actually lifted by him, then heavily slammed onto the ground.
"Boom!"
The Golden Horn Rhino was slammed onto the ground, even the stone pavement was smashed into a large pit.
"Done, the twenty-first level."
After killing the Golden Horn Rhino, the twenty-first level was considered passed.
Lu Yu lightly clapped his hands, then looked at Cui Tianming.
Although he couldn't directly attack, he could still use the power in the Tianji Tower to deal with this reckless guy.
Cui Tianming was filled with hatred towards Lu Yu, but he couldn't do anything about him.
"The twenty-first level is cleared, next is the twenty-second level trial, prepare... start."
The Golden Horn Rhino, which was smashed to death by Lu Yu, turned into specks of golden light and dissipated into the air, then the voice of the Tianji Tower sounded again.
Upon hearing this voice, everyone became tense.
Even Su Jin and Ling Tianxin, they both mobilized all their spiritual power in preparation for the upcoming trial.
Just as the voice of the Tianji Tower faded, Lu Yu suddenly heard a faint sound. It sounded like something crawling, and it was a lot of small things...
He looked up in the direction where the sound came from, only to find that a large number of black beetles had gathered around the trial ground, he didn't know when.
These beetles are the size of fists, and there is a faint glow on their backs.
Although these things don't look big, the sheer number of them is quite oppressive.
After Lu Yu discovered these beetles, others finally noticed the anomaly here.
Seeing these densely packed beetles, everyone was shocked.
"What kind of disgusting bugs are these!"
"Golden Helmet Beetles, a type of creature with strong vitality, also considered a spiritual beast. These bugs cannot be eliminated unless they are burned with fierce fire!"
Su Jin, being knowledgeable, immediately recognized these beetles upon seeing them.
Although each of these beetles is not particularly powerful, their combined strength is extraordinary.
They are a type of spiritual beast that wins through sheer numbers. If there is only one, it can barely be considered Earth Grade.
But with so many of them, I'm afraid even Heaven Grade is not their limit!
Upon hearing Su Jin's explanation, the disciples of the Greedy Wolf Hall took out various fire-based treasures they had prepared, or prepared to use fire-based spells directly.
The Golden Helmet Beetles crawl very quickly, and in a moment, some disciples of the Greedy Wolf Hall collided with the beetles.
"Burn with raging fire!"
One of the disciples of the Greedy Wolf Hall gathered their spiritual power and sprayed a large flame towards the direction of the Golden Helmet Beetles.
In an instant, a large group of Golden Helmet Beetles were completely surrounded by flames.
"Great! No wonder Senior Ji Kun is known as the strongest person below the Gold Core stage. He just wiped out a large group of bugs in one go."
"Don't just stand there, let's hurry up and help, let's eliminate these bugs together."
"Yes, we can't help with that Golden Horn Rhinoceros, but we can still restrain a few of these bugs."
Seeing the effectiveness of Ji Kun, the leading disciple of the Greedy Wolf Hall, several other disciples gained confidence.
They all summoned their own treasures and attacked the Golden Helmet Beetles.
Lu Yu didn't feel anything when they took action, after all, this was a trial that everyone was participating in, and they should use their abilities to the fullest.
But Su Jin's face changed drastically.
"Stop, quickly communicate with the Tianji Tower and leave this place! These Golden Helmet Beetles are not easy to deal with!"
"Senior Su Jin, I know you're looking out for us. But these bugs aren't that strong, at least give us a chance to perform."
"That's right, don't worry, Senior Su Jin, if we can't beat them, we'll leave the Tianji Tower as soon as possible."
These disciples were excited about the battle and completely ignored Su Jin's words.
Only Xiao Mei and a few other companions took her words to heart.
"Senior Su Jin, it seems that we will only be a burden here, so let's retreat first. After all, the rewards for passing the 21st level will definitely be good enough. Let's take what we can get."
After Xiao Mei finished speaking, she communicated with the Tianji Tower along with the other companions and instantly left the battle.
Fortunately, they left quickly. Otherwise, they would have witnessed the ensuing tragedy.
The Greedy Wolf Hall disciples who had launched the attack originally thought that their fire spells would cause significant damage to the Golden Helmet Beetles.
But after their spells were cast, several beetles, still carrying flames on their bodies, rushed out of the fire and fiercely attacked them.
"Ah, a bug bit me! Senior brother, help!"
"Why won't these bugs burn to death? Senior sister, did you deceive us?"
"What did I deceive you about? You dare to confront Earth Grade Golden Helmet Beetles head-on without even reaching the Foundation Building stage of perfection. Even if you use fire spells, it won't work!"
Watching them being killed by the Golden Helmet Beetles, Su Jin was anxiously jumping on the side.
