However, Lin Yi was prepared for this. Before it could use its wind blade, he was already in front of it.

"Roar? You're really bold, human!" The brain-eating insect suddenly laughed.

It was a funny scene to someone who didn't know what was going on-hearing something like that from a harmless-looking bug made Lin Yi speechless, even though he knew that the guy wasn't simple.

As soon as the brain-eating insect finished speaking, two wind blades whizzed out. Their target changed from Leng Leng and the others to Lin Yi who was close at hand. There was no chance to Dodge at such a short distance. The wind blades stuck to Lin Yi's body as soon as they formed. If this continued, he would be dismembered immediately.

"Oh, really? I think you're quite bold. " Lin Yi replied calmly. He didn't make any moves against the wind blade because it wasn't necessary. The Qi bomb in his hand was already in the enemy's face.

Although he didn't waste too much time, Lin Yi had been maintaining his Qi at a high intensity these past few days out of habit, greatly reducing the time it took to form the Qi pellet bomb. The power he used now was almost at the limit of his current strength.

BOOM! The silence of the night was broken by a loud bang. A radius of several miles was razed to the ground in an instant. The area within a hundred miles was also in a mess. Many spirit beasts fled in panic and were in a miserable state.

Leng Leng and the others had already escaped a certain distance away. Furthermore, with their previous experience, even though they were all in a sorry state, none of them were injured.

"Hu!" Lin Yi let out a long breath. If it was before, he would've suffered a lot from the backlash if he detonated the bomb at such a close distance, but his speed was a lot faster than before, and he could switch between his soul form and half-soul form at will, avoiding most of the damage.

However, it was different for the brain-eating insect that bore the brunt of the attack. The true Qi pill fire bomb was directly pressed on its face and detonated. The power and damage it caused were difficult to estimate. Even an existence comparable to a late-stage golden core like the ancient king goumang would die without a doubt if he was directly hit in the face like this.

However, Lin Yi quickly frowned again, even more so than before. His divine sense told him that the man didn't die on the spot, and wasn't even seriously injured!

"Hoho, you're indeed a human who can kill a red-scaled snake. I have to say, you do have some strength." When the brain-eating insect reappeared, it was already two miles away. Other than some burn marks on its body, there were no more obvious serious injuries. It even looked quite relaxed."Fortunately, I copied the goumang tribe's Phantom image. Otherwise, I would have suffered a great loss."

This time, Lin Yi was truly shocked.

The true Qi pill fire bomb was his most powerful trump card. Other than that, other means, including the killing Qi of the five elements, could hardly pose a threat to existences at the Golden core stage. In the end, he was only a primordial spirit. Even if he had mastered the unique life-saving means of the primordial spirit form and the half-primordial spirit form, it was still far inferior to the nature-defying quality of his own body.

Lin Yi's heart sank as he looked at the guy's nonchalant face. It would be easier to accept if the bomb didn't hit the guy, but it was pressed on the guy's face. Even if the guy used escape, he couldn't avoid the damage at the first moment, and it only gave him an itch. How could he accept this?

"Let's go quickly. Coold, lead the team and take care of everyone. I'll meet up with you guys after I've lured it away. " Lin Yi quickly sent a message to everyone. He wasn't even this nervous when facing King goumang and the red-scaled snake, but this time, he really wasn't confident at all. Luring them away and regrouping was the only way he could think of.

"This ..." Lingshan and the others looked at each other, worried. They didn't think things would get this serious. It was just a bug, how could it be this scary?

"Let's go!" Leng Leng was the first to react and immediately led everyone away. She knew that the longer they stayed, the more danger Lin Yi would be in. This was a matter of life and death, and there was no time to hesitate.

Lin Yi smiled as he watched Leng Leng lead the group away. What made him even more happy was that the insect didn't seem to be chasing after them. It had a clear target-him.

"You seem to care a lot about those people?" The brain-eating insect didn't rush to attack, but asked with interest.

"Does this matter? Since I'm your target, letting them go shouldn't matter to you. Am I right?" Lin Yi was shocked, but he didn't show it on his face. He was still calm.

"You're right. " The brain-eating insect nodded. Its goal had never been the so-called human Tributes from the beginning. After all, the tributes were prepared for that Lord, and this time, it came to eat it all for itself.

"That's good. Why don't we wait a little longer?" Lin Yi said casually.

"You're an interesting human. This should be what you call insatiable, right?" The brain-eating insect laughed, and the insect's face showed all kinds of human-like expressions. This scene was strange no matter how one looked at it.

"I don't think so. In my understanding, this is called a friendly negotiation." Lin Yi said, thick-skinned.

"A friendly negotiation?" The brain-eating insect was stunned for a moment before it reacted to what he meant. It suddenly laughed so hard that its whole body was arched, and it said breathlessly,""Well, it seems that I didn't come to the wrong place this time. You are indeed a rare human sample."

"Sample?" Lin Yi pretended to be surprised, but he was relieved inside. If this guy really wanted to make Leng Leng and the others stay, he wouldn't be able to do anything. He had to admit that this insect was quite smart.

"That's right, it's a sample. In your human language, it basically means food, but it's slightly different." The brain-eating insect said bluntly.

"So you're saying you're going to eat me?" Realization dawned on Lin Yi, but he wasn't afraid at all. Many Savage spirit beasts had the habit of eating humans, and while this insect's appearance was a little special, it was still a very powerful spirit beast, one that could eat King goumang.
