Wu Tian stood on the flying sword, dodging attacks from left to right.
"Oh heavens, please help me! Is this the kind of hardship I have to face in my cultivation journey?" Wu Tian exclaimed.
"Am I really being chased by bugs? Master, where are you? I miss you so much," he thought, reminiscing about his strict but caring master.
Now he realized how good his master was, and how much he wished his master, a powerful cultivator in the Crossing Tribulation stage, was here to help him. "I swear I will hate bugs for the rest of my life," he said to himself.
Little did Wu Tian know, if his master were here, the bugs he faced would be in the Crossing Tribulation and the Great Perfection stages.
Looking back at the countless bugs and other beasts chasing him, Wu Tian realized that he had unknowingly entered the territories of various bug tribes and other races while flying on his sword, and had unintentionally stirred up trouble. As a result, there were now tens of thousands of beasts chasing after him, some flying beasts, and some in the Nascent Soul stage.
Thankfully, Wu Tian had learned the Ghost Shadow technique from the Supreme Shadow, which enabled him to move like a ghost, and he could evade any attack with ease. However, facing such a large group of beasts, any spell or technique would be of little use, and the only option for Wu Tian was to keep moving.
Fortunately, his body was absorbing spiritual energy at a much faster rate than before, and his True Qi could keep up with the expenditure. He also had a lot of Return to Origin Pills, which was the best medicine he had at the moment, and he had stocked up on them before leaving his master.
As Wu Tian's flying sword flew across the sky, a colorful energy wave trailed behind him, forming a magnificent line. However, Wu Tian had no time to admire this rare and fantastic sight.
As he dodged countless lightning strikes and flew past a mountain peak, he suddenly sensed a powerful energy wave emanating from a mid-Nascent Soul stage beast. He quickly flew downwards to avoid the beast's attack and shook off many Golden Core stage beasts in the process. However, many early-Nascent Soul stage beasts, which could fly, were still chasing him and continuously launching long-range attacks.
Now I have encountered a mid-stage Nascent Soul level monster. It attacked without me even seeing its appearance. As expected, monsters are very powerful, even those in the Nascent Soul stage have intelligence. I can't handle it on my own.
I immediately flew past the mountain and looked back. Wu Tian was almost scared off the flying sword.
A hundred-meter-sized flying insect followed behind. It was an evolved version of the insect.
Insects, insects again. Am I in a world of insects? Is there a world of insects? Wu Tian cried out in his heart.
The mid-stage Nascent Soul level insect was shining with golden light all over its body, resembling the shape of a dragon on Earth. However, its bulky body could not escape its insect-like shape. The mid-stage Nascent Soul level insect opened its mouth and shot a barrage of ice arrows. Its speed was fast, and its hundred-meter wings stirred up a gust of wind.
Wu Tian was accidentally hit by a few ice arrows, but fortunately, his body was tough enough to withstand the attack. However, the attack of a mid-stage Nascent Soul level monster was not easy to bear, especially since he was only in the Golden Core stage. If Wu Tian's body had not been transformed by immortal energy, he would have been a sieve by now.

Wu Tian continued to fly forward at a high speed, but there were many mid-stage Nascent Soul level monsters behind him. He encountered several groups of them, and even some Nascent Soul level monsters. Wu Tian wanted to return to the Qin family's town, but when he thought of the many monsters behind him, he killed the idea. They were all ordinary people, and they were already suffering. He couldn't harm them anymore.
Wu Tian didn't know where the safest place was. Each of the four continents had a safe place protected by the Heaven Fighting Formation.
Looking at the super lineup led by the flying insect behind him, Wu Tian was speechless. The monsters he encountered were getting bigger and bigger, and there were more and more Nascent Soul level monsters. The flying monsters came in groups. If a large number of mid-stage Nascent Soul level monsters appeared again, he would be finished, even if his body could withstand the attack, he would still be doomed without true energy.
It seemed that he attracted what he feared. With a few roars, several huge monsters flew out from the forest below, with bodies more than 300 meters long.
The super wings flapped, and their speed instantly increased. They followed behind Wu Tian, and all the mid-stage Nascent Soul level monsters were insect-shaped.
Whenever Wu Tian thought of insects, he wanted to kill them, provided that he had the strength.
Because there were seven mid-Yuan Ying stage monsters chasing after him and a continuous barrage of spells in between, Wu Tian's pressure increased greatly. He would be hit if he wasn't careful. Along the way, many monsters joined the chase, and Wu Tian could no longer care about them. If ten came, he would run; if a hundred came, he would still run. There was no difference as long as he wasn't caught.
Perhaps Wu Tian saw a huge tower at the edge of the sky, which was too far away to see clearly, but its outline was visible. He didn't know what it was, but seeing its shape, he thought that there might be something there that could help him get rid of these damn bugs.
Thinking this, Wu Tian turned to fly in the direction of the tower. Many monsters followed closely behind him, regardless of whether they could fly or not.
After flying for an entire night, Wu Tian's true energy was severely depleted due to the almost one hundred mid-Yuan Ying stage monsters and nearly ten thousand early-Yuan Ying stage monsters behind him, as well as countless gold core stage monsters. He was hit many times because the closer he got to the tower, the more monsters there were, no matter which direction he flew in. Wu Tian inevitably suffered attacks, and his Fire Glass Shield had already been broken by the monster attacks. In the middle of the flight, he used the Hundred Demon Sword to clear a path and finally managed to escape to the tower, but he had consumed nearly eighty percent of his true energy.
Wu Tian desperately ate Return to Yuan Dan to recover, luckily he recovered quickly, and he didn't collapse. As long as Wu Tian didn't suffer any attacks for a period of time, his true energy would quickly recover, provided he didn't consume too much.
"Great, there's a sea ahead," Wu Tian exclaimed and cried at the same time. He had been chased by these monsters for a day and a night, and they were all bugs. The tower was in the middle of the sea, although still some distance away, it was much closer than yesterday.
Suddenly, colorful energy blasted towards Wu Tian, and there were probably more than ten thousand monsters in front of him. Wu Tian immediately dodged.
It seemed to be another race. Wu Tian wanted to go around them, but as soon as he turned around, there were thousands of Yuan Ying stage monsters on his left and right sides. He knew that there were also many Yuan Ying stage monsters on his right side. If only one or two had come, Wu Tian would have the confidence to use the Hundred Demon Sword to clear a path, but now there were thousands of them. His Hundred Demon Sword would probably not return to him before he died.
Oh my god, I'm in the gold core stage, why are so many Yuan Ying stage monsters coming after me?
The Yuan Ying stage monsters behind him had caught up, and because the Yuan Ying stage was one level higher than Wu Tian, they had intelligence. They were roaring and cursing, and Wu Tian, who had been focused on escaping, was now aware of their verbal attacks. He guessed that he would be drowned in saliva if each of them spat on him. The Gold Core stage monsters at the back had not caught up yet because they were too far behind.
Wu Tian's heart chilled as he looked at the nearly ten thousand Yuan Ying stage monsters. There was no need to protect himself, it was useless, he would be hit even with a strong defense, after all, he was only in the Gold Core stage. The sky and ground were surrounded by monsters...
