Lin Yan’s expression changed slightly. “What happened?”
Ever since the seal crisis, it seemed to have awakened a certain consciousness of the Turtle Spirit Holy Mother, causing her communication method to change greatly.
The Golden Ball sent a message. “The 98th battlefield… No, all the 99 battlefields silently gave birth to the Gadfly Kings while blocking my perception! Just now, they infected my body at the same time and attacked my consciousness seal!”
Lin Yan’s heart sank. “Was your consciousness sealed because of this Gadfly King?”
“That’s right. If it were an ordinary Gadfly Demon, 1 would only need to seal its body to temporarily isolate it, preventing it from entering the depths of my body.
“But the Gadfly King is different. It can corrode my body domain, just like here…”
The Golden Ball jumped a few times and pointed at the pitch-black flesh world opposite, but it avoided it like a snake and scorpion. It could not enter at all.
“This is the infestation of the Gadfly King’s domain. It will turn my body into its domain and isolate my consciousness from entering.
“It can even devour and occupy my consciousness through my body!
“I have no way to deal with the Gadfly King. I can only seal it.
“It’s just that 1 didn’t expect that every battlefield would actually give birth to a Gadfly King. They were waiting for this moment to attack me at the same time…”
Lin Yan recalled the records of the Turtle Spirit Race. This was an existence higher than the Demon Bug Stage Gadfly Demon. It could command the actions of the other Gadfly Demons.
“I’ve read in the records that the Gadfly King guards an area and can’t move. If we can find the Gadfly King and kill it, won’t we be able to resolve this problem?”
The Golden Ball of the Turtle Spirit Holy Mother’s consciousness trembled, and a desperate message came. “It’s useless. The Gadfly King is small and hides among all the Gadfly Demons. Unless I screen all the Gadfly Demons, it’s extremely difficult to find it! Not to mention that my consciousness has already been isolated from all the battlefields!”
Lin Yan turned to look at Patriarch Song, who also had an ugly expression. “The Holy Mother is right. Although I’ve never seen the Gadfly King, it’s been passed down from ancient times that the Gadfly King is small, and every one of them looks different. They’re extremely good at hiding. They even hide in the bodies of Demon Bugs and eggs. It’s almost impossible to find them.”
It was no wonder that the Turtle Spirit Clan had very few records of the Gadfly King. It even looked like they could not be sure.
“Is there no other way…”
It took a lot of effort to kill one demonic egg and one Demon Bug. As for a battlefield, it was huge. Over the years, countless Gadfly Demons like the Demon Bug and demonic egg had accumulated.
Finding a Gadfly King of unknown size and form among them was no different from finding a needle in a haystack. It was impossible.
Not to mention that there was only one day, and there were a total of 99 battlefields!
Even Lin Yan, who had astonishing combat strength and could easily kill the Demon Bugs and eggs, felt that this was impossible.
His expression became darker and darker.
The Golden Ball of consciousness of the Turtle Spirit Holy Mother trembled slightly and said, “There’s no need to despair. I’m the natural-born Turtle Spirit Holy Mother. It’s not easy for some mere Gadfly Demons to break through my consciousness. I’ll fight them to the death!
“Now, I’ll send you out immediately!”
Lin Yan said sternly, “Wait, wait a little longer!”
There were too many Gadfly Kings. The Turtle Spirit Holy Mother was clearly certain that she was no match for the Gadfly King. The one day she had mentioned previously was probably the longest she thought she could last.
In other words, she would definitely lose this battle!
If he left now, the Turtle Spirit Holy Mother would definitely die!
It was even to the extent that her consciousness would be occupied and she would completely become the Gadfly Demon’s puppet under the control of the people behind the Spirit Marrow.
At that time, even if they were sent away by the Turtle Spirit Holy Mother, they might not be able to escape the pursuit of the puppet Turtle Spirit Holy Mother…
Then, he thought of the Turtle Spirit Holy Mother’s unreserved trust in him over the past month and the Jade Crystal Yellow Pearls that filled walls…
“Let me think, let me think again!”
Lin Yan’s thoughts were like a surging tide.
He was not trying to be brave. Instead, he felt that he had overlooked an extremely small but important detail in all the information he knew.
Ever since he used the Enlightenment Spiritual Light many times, he often felt that his comprehension and wisdom had increased in a true sense. He could often come up with some unexpected ingenuity and grasp many important details that seemed unrelated.
Previously, he had relied on such intelligence to slowly create peerless martial arts techniques that matched the Fire-Patterned Treasure Fruit and Turtle-Patterned Treasure Fruit.
Now, this bit of enlightenment reminded him that he had missed an important detail, a detail that might turn defeat into victory!
Sometimes, a person’s subconscious would always be faster than their true consciousness. They would find the most important point from the complicated chaos.
But what exactly was it?
‘What is it?’
The Golden Ball of Consciousness of the Turtle Spirit Holy Mother kept jumping beside him and sending messages asking him to leave. As for Patriarch Song, he had long left under the chase of the Turtle Spirit Holy Mother.
However, Lin Yan ignored it. In order to capture the key in the chaos, he closed his eyes and activated the Black Tortoise Divine Armor at full power, blocking everything from the outside world.
Old Qin crawled out of his arms. “Little Turtle, stop shouting. This guy is very stubborn! Even ten cows can’t pull him back when he makes a decision. We have no choice. We can only trust him this once…”
However, the voice he transmitted was trembling non-stop, indicating that he was also extremely afraid.
A layer of flowing black light suddenly spread out from the depths of the pitch-black flesh world like water patterns.
An eerie rustling sound continuously sounded from the passageway.
“It’s the Gadfly Demons! Damn it! Big Brother, wake up! Big Brother! Lin Yan, Lin Yan! Run, the Gadfly Demons are here!”
The Gadfly Demons were here?
Why did they come?
Why did they come at this time?
In an instant, it was as if a bolt of lightning exploded in Lin Yan’s mind.
He suddenly stood up, his eyes shining as he stared at the Demon Bug that had been burned to ashes. Then, he looked past the shadows of the black Demon Bugs that had already appeared in the dark and took a deep look at the depths of the cave.
Ignoring the dark shadows that had already appeared in the surroundings, he turned to the Golden Ball of consciousness. “You just said that in an instant, those Gadfly Kings attacked you!”
“Yes…”
Lin Yan said solemnly, “There are so many of them. Can you not resist them at all?!”
“I—no. Actually, I—”
The Turtle Spirit Holy Mother’s consciousness information stammered. In the end, she could only say in frustration, “Yes, I can’t resist them! They have been breeding for hundreds of years. With the accumulated strength of hundreds of years, I will completely fall in a day at most. It’s precisely because of this that you should leave immediately!”
Lin Yan was unmoved. “They’ve clearly accumulated enough strength. Why didn’t they attack early?”
“This is probably… because I still had the strength to resist?” The Turtle Spirit Holy Mother said uncertainly.
“That’s right! But since they know that you can resist, why didn’t they continue to accumulate their strength? Instead, they suddenly attacked at that moment just now?”
At this moment, Old Qin crawled out of Lin Yan’s arms and interrupted. “I’ve thought of that! Just now, you killed the Demon Bug! Therefore, those Gadfly Kings must be afraid! They’re afraid of you!”
Lin Yan sneered and said, “That’s right! They’re afraid of me! I have the ability to kill Demon Bugs, and I can kill many of them. Therefore, the Gadfly King is afraid of me!”
After all, the Turtle Spirit Holy Mother’s consciousness had been sealed. Although she had improved compared to before, she was probably only in her teens. She had already been confused. “And then? The Gadfly Kings are afraid of you. And then?”
“Since they’re afraid of me, I naturally have a way! Let’s leave this pitch-black flesh world first!”
“But…”
However, Lin Yan had already taken large strides and stepped out of the pitch-black flesh world. He ignored the dense Gadfly Demons that appeared behind him and walked out through the intact cavity..
