Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Clang!”

A special shield anti-sound effect sounded.

The red bomber bug instantly stopped in front of Mo Xiao.

In the next moment, as if it had suffered a strange attack, it instantly flew back at a speed even faster than before, flying directly above the mother nest.

The moment the bomber bug paused, Mo Xiao successfully released his Illusion Breaking Technique.

[Bomber Flying Bug]

Level: LV30

HP: 500/500

Strength: 1

Agility: 3,000

Spirit: 1

Endurance: 10

Physique: 50

Skills:

Self-Destruct: Approaches the target at terrifying speed, detonates itself, dealing damage equal to its own maximum HP to the target, ignoring any defense and block.

Explosive Trait: Any stimulus can trigger an explosion, high mobility makes them difficult to hit.

“Is this a monster that can self-destruct?” Mo Xiao looked at the bomber bug, his expression becoming solemn.

Although he could shield against attacks, the speed of this small flying insect was simply too fast, with an agility of 3,000. He found it difficult to react in time.

At this moment, the bomber bug that was repelled by Mo Xiao’s shield had already appeared above the mother nest. Just as it was about to explode, dozens of bug warriors appeared in front of the bomber bug as if they had teleported.

“Boom!”

Accompanied by a series of explosions, countless insectoid warriors were sent flying.

As for the mother nest, it was protected behind these bug warriors, not suffering any damage.

It would be good if this explosion could directly kill these bug warriors.

However, the damage from the explosion was only 500 points, which was nothing to these bug warriors.

Mo Xiao watched the situation in front of him with a constantly changing expression.

As the explosion ended, nine small holes appeared on the surface of the mother nest simultaneously.

At the same time, nine red shadows instantly flew out of the small hole and sped towards Mo Xiao again.

“Fire Elemental Transformation!”

Seeing this, Mo Xiao turned into flames again and quickly fled.

“Boom!”

Another explosion sounded, and Mo Xiao, who had turned into flames, was instantly sent flying.

[-500!]

Mo Xiao’s pupils constricted when he saw the blood line decrease again.

He originally thought that this explosion was considered physical damage and could avoid this damage after elementalization.

Unexpectedly, it didn’t help at all. It only flew further when it was blasted.

“This is too unscientific! How can the flames still lose health after being blown up!” Mo Xiao took advantage of the fact that he had been blown away and hurriedly canceled his elemental transformation state, landing back on the ground.

Seeing that the bomber flying bugs were about to arrive, Mo Xiao, who had always been calm, panicked.

In the past, no matter what kind of crisis it was, there would always be a chance to turn the tables.

But this time, all of Mo Xiao’s life-saving abilities had been sealed by the Heaven-reaching Tower. If he died, it would really be over.

“Shadowless!”

Just as the remaining eight red lights were about to catch up to him, Mo Xiao gritted his teeth and activated his Shadowless Technique. He originally wanted to use the tenfold speed to escape from these terrifying flying insects.

However, the moment he activated Shadowless, the bomber bugs that were chasing Mo Xiao crazily instantly stopped their movements, as if they had lost their target, and directly froze.

Looking at the motionless bomber bugs, Mo Xiao was puzzled. “Why aren’t they moving?”

After a moment of contemplation, he quickly opened his skill panel.

[Shadowless: A red-tier skill, one of the top escape skills. When activated, the body turns into nothingness, leaving no trace, making it impossible for anyone to detect your whereabouts! Effect: +1000% movement speed, and enter invisibility status. While invisible, you cannot attack, be attacked, or recover health, otherwise, the invisibility status will be immediately lifted. It consumes 5 points of mana per second and can last indefinitely, with the ability to interrupt at will. If interrupted for the reasons mentioned above, it cannot be used again for 30 seconds.]

Tenfold movement speed, entering invisibility status…

In other words, after he activated Shadowless, these explosive insects would not be able to discover his existence.

After losing their target, they naturally stopped.

“I think I see a turning point…”

Looking at the motionless bomber bugs, Mo Xiao’s eyes lit up as he looked around.

Then, he charged towards the bug warriors.

The moment he charged into the group of bug warriors, he immediately deactivated Shadowless.

At this moment, all the bug warriors focused their gazes on Mo Xiao.

At the same time, the remaining eight bomber bugs instantly rushed towards Mo Xiao.

“Closer… closer…”

Just as the blasting bugs were about to enter the range of the explosion, Mo Xiao activated Shadowless again and quickly left the spot, instantly pulling away.

Looking at the exploding insects that had stopped moving again, Mo Xiao took a deep breath.

With the Thousand Mechanism Umbrella transforming rapidly into a staff in his hand, he then struck down forcefully.

“Thunder Strike!”

Although it was Mo Xiao’s lowest-level magic with relatively low damage, it was suitable for the current situation.

Its range was sufficient, its speed was fast, and it was Mo Xiao’s only skill that was almost instant.

As Mo Xiao shouted, the Shadowless state was immediately lifted.

Before the blasting bugs could react, a blue bolt of thunder landed on one of them.

“Boom!”

“Boom!”

“Boom!”

With eight explosions in quick succession, all the bomber bugs were instantly detonated. The bug tribe warriors guarding the insect nest on the ground were also blown away, and the bodies of countless bug warriors flew in the air.

“This is a good opportunity!”

In an instant, the bodies of the warriors in the air, originally suspended, exploded like thunderbolts.

In an instant, the bodies of the warriors in the air, originally suspended, exploded like thunderbolts.

In order to protect the mother nest, more and more bug warriors rushed up to defend.

But the defending bug warriors were also blown to pieces, creating a continuous cycle of explosions.

The frenzied explosions continued to reverberate around the mother nest.

Outside the Heaven-reaching Tower.

“Corpse Explosion… Jin’er, this seems to be your skill, right?” Yao Shi’er looked at the situation in front of her with a strange expression.

“Ahaha, 1 think so…” Su Jin’er scratched her head awkwardly.

Their strange expressions were not because Mo Xiao had this skill, but because the scene in front of them was very familiar.

This was because every time Su Jin’er passed through this level, it was almost always this scene. There would be a series of chain explosions until the Bug Tribe Mother Nest was destroyed.

“It’s indeed the same method you’ve been using all along,” Yan Zhantian commented somewhat speechlessly.. “But what was that skill he used just now? It seems to have completely disappeared…”
