Clan Cultivation: Starting from Beast Taming

Therefore, they quickly responded, "That’s right, it’s time to venture deep into Yang Kingdom’s territory for an investigation."

So the two of them set off right away, heading towards Yang Kingdom together.

At this time, there were quite a few other Cultivators who had the same plan as the Zhou Family duo.

Yang Kingdom, ravaged by the insect disaster, might not have any treasures left.

But because it was ravaged by the insect disaster, it was also devoid of dangers at this time.

And if one could truly find a method to counter those Demon Insects, it would be a feat of monumental merit.

After Zhou Chun and his companion entered Yang Kingdom’s territory, they found that, as expected, the number of Demon Insects was nowhere near as dense as before.

They easily found a large, abandoned insect nest which only housed some disabled Demon Insects and some ordinary mature insects at this time.

Having found nothing around the nest, the two continued their search deeper.

Not long after, the Zhou Family members found another insect nest in a mountain range, which to their surprise, still harbored a large number of Demon Insects.

"Strange, why are there still so many Demon Insects inhabiting this nest? Haven’t they encountered a food crisis?"

In the charred mountain range, Zhou Mingde and Zhou Chun watched from afar as the Demon Insects flew around in search of food, both feeling very puzzled.

Before this, they had visited many larger mountain ranges, where the insect nests were long empty.

Yet the nests in this mountain range seemed to be unaffected by a food crisis, with roughly thousands of fluttering Demon Insects in sight.

"An abnormal situation must have an underlying reason; perhaps there’s a secret hidden beneath the surface of this mountain range!"

Zhou Chun whispered his opinion.

The surface of the mountain range was burnt to a crisp, and even if there were some animal carcasses that weren’t burnt to ashes for the insect swarm to feed on, they certainly couldn’t sustain such a large group of insects.

Yet, here remained such a large swarm of Demon Insects.

Therefore, Zhou Mingde also essentially agreed with Zhou Chun’s view, and immediately nodded, "You’re right, Zhengchun. Let’s search and see if we can make any unexpected discoveries."

Then the two of them began to search the mountains carefully.

However, before the two made any discoveries, their whereabouts were already detected by the Demon Insects and they came under attack from the swarm.

Demon Insects had a very strong protective instinct for their nests, actively seeking to eliminate all foreign entities that approached. Discover stories at novelbuddy

Soon, Zhou Chun and Zhou Mingde were surrounded by hundreds of thousands of Demon Insects.

Among these Demon Insects, there were many second-order Demon Insects, and there might even be third-order ones!

"Leave these Demon Insects to me to deal with, Zhengchun. Just protect yourself," Zhou Mingde, as though facing a formidable enemy, instructed Zhou Chun in midair before releasing the Fire Divine Jackal to launch a fierce attack on the swarm.

Aoo—

The resounding cry of a wolf echoed through the sky as the Fire Divine Jackal, flames blazing from its body, charged into the swarm of insects with an unstoppable force, slaughtering wildly as if in an empty field.

The swarm was too numerous; it did not need to target anyone in particular, just plunging into the densest part of the insects was enough.

Under the Demon Fire burning on its body, even second-order Demon Insects could hardly endure for more than a breath’s time.

Meanwhile, Zhou Mingde attacked the swarm with Magic Artifacts, while carefully keeping Zhou Chun protected behind him.

But Zhou Chun was not the kind to hide behind others. Although the swarm was numerous, in his eyes, such a scale of insects was not enough to leave him without a plan.

He raised his hand to pluck a few Spirit Beast Pouches, releasing his three great Spirit Pets.

Then, leaving the Golden Armor Rock Turtle to stand guard by his side, the Silver Lightning Python Baibai and the Golden Winged Tiger shook off their lethargy to join the counterattack against the swarm.

Roar!

Accompanied by a tiger’s roar, the Golden Winged Tiger, engaging in such a huge battle for the first time, was also eager to showcase its prowess.

It opened its mouth to spit out, and a mass of cyan light, like a cannonball being fired, shot towards the swarm.

When the shell fell among the swarm of insects, it instantly exploded into countless tiny wind blades that began to slaughter the Demon Insects within a ten zhang radius.

In the blink of an eye, no fewer than several hundred Demon Insects were torn to pieces by the wind blades.

And that was just the Golden Winged Tiger’s appetizer.

It immediately flapped its wings fiercely, and a pale green light surged on its wings, quickly turning into two pale green tornadoes sweeping towards the swarm.

When the two tornadoes collided in the midst of the swarm, they instantly merged into a pale green storm that swept across, causing countless damages and deaths to the Demon Insects within a hundred zhang radius.

That was not enough, and soon the Golden Winged Tiger roared and a wave of golden light spread out in a horn shape from its mouth, pulverizing the several hundred Demon Insects heading straight towards it into dust in an instant.

Such ferocity even shocked Zhou Mingde, who was surprised by the great cat’s strength.

On the other side, the Silver Lightning Python Baibai didn’t want to let the younger brother, the Golden Winged Tiger, hog all the limelight.

With silver and white lightning coursing over its body, it formed a Thunder Power Field centered around itself; any creature that came within thirty zhang of it would automatically be struck by a powerful electric current.

This was a new spell it mastered after breaking through to the second rank of medium grade Demon Beasts, aptly named "Thunder Power Field."

With this move, the Silver Lightning Python Baibai dived straight into the swarm just like the Fire Divine Jackal.

Crackle and pop!

Sounds akin to the popping of fried beans continued nonstop, and any Demon Insect that approached within thirty zhang of the Silver Lightning Python was electrocuted into a puff of blue smoke, just like flies hitting an electric swatter.

Only the more powerful second rank Demon Insects could barely withstand the damage of the Thunder Power Field.

Yet, even if these Demon Insects could survive within the Thunder Power Field, they would be paralyzed and could hardly escape Baibai’s subsequent targeted killings.

In terms of killing efficiency, the Silver Lightning Python Baibai was in no way inferior to the Golden Winged Tiger; in fact, it was even stronger.

Under the efficient onslaught of the three Demon Beasts and Zhou Mingde, the number of incoming Demon Insects visibly decreased at a rapid pace.

If they were allowed to continue killing at this rate, even a million Demon Insects might not be enough.

However, these Demon Insects could cause a massive pest disaster in the Yang Kingdom and unite Cultivators from several nations to fight them, so naturally, they had more tactics than just these swarm tactics.

Soon, a large, bright yellow Demon Insect appeared on the battlefield.

It was four zhang long, comparable to a hunting dog, and the aura it emitted posed a great threat even to Zhou Chun.

There was no doubt that this was a third rank Demon Insect, the Insect King of this nest.

Each nest has a king, which is not the king of the species, but merely a leader.

Yet such Insect Kings do possess certain things that only Insect Kings have.

At this moment, after the Insect King appeared, the remaining Demon Insects quickly formed a Giant Insect around it as the core, spanning over ten zhang in length.

The aura emitted by the Giant Insect was incredibly strong, comparable to an upper third rank Demon Beast.

Upon seeing this, both Zhou Mingde and the Fire Divine Jackal finally became completely alert.

But when the Fire Divine Jackal opened its mouth to unleash the first strike, it spat out a pillar of red flame toward the Giant Insect.

In response to this attack, a yellowish light flashed on the Giant Insect’s body, forming a Protective Barrier that shielded it within.

After the red flame pillar hit the yellow Protective Barrier and exploded, it failed to shake the barrier in the slightest.

This scene caused Zhou Mingde’s expression to change slightly, showing a look of utmost seriousness.

Then, without hesitation, he stimulated several Magic Artifacts and launched them at the Giant Insect.

At that time, Zhou Chun quickly retrieved his three Spirit Pets back into the Spirit Beast Pouch and swiftly moved away from Zhou Mingde’s side.

He knew very well that with his modest strength, he couldn’t pose any threat to the Giant Insect formed by the entire swarm.

On the contrary, his presence might distract Zhou Mingde, preventing him from giving his all.

Therefore, he consciously made a tactical retreat to a distant location, allowing Zhou Mingde to fight the Giant Insect without any worries.
