"Can you help us?"
Another companion asked eagerly.
There was a hint of expectation in his eyes.
The old man nodded slowly.
"I will try my best to help you."
"These black-faced centipedes are ferocious."
"But they also have weaknesses."
"If you use fire to burn the venom on their bodies."
"You can get rid of them."
Hearing this.
Huo Jilin and his companions breathed a sigh of relief.
They began to look for combustibles everywhere.
Hoping to find a source of fire to fight against the terrible creatures in front of them.
At the same time.
The old man shared his experience of catching and trying to eat this strange creature.
He described the black-faced centipede as ferocious in appearance.
But there is a magic core inside.
It is their weakness.
As long as the magic core can be obtained.
And destroy it.
These evil insects will be destroyed quickly.
The old man's story emerged in his mind.
Huo Jilin had a new understanding of the predicament in front of him.
They began to understand.
In this dangerous tomb passage.
Only mutual assistance and cooperation can survive.
During the search.
Huo Jilin suddenly found a long sword stained with the blood of the black-faced centipede corpse.
He immediately realized that this was an opportunity.
He carefully took out the magic core and handed it to his companion.
The fire jumped in the cold and damp tomb passage.
Accompanied by the fierce burning sound and the screams of the black-faced centipede.
As the magic cores were destroyed one by one.
The evil insects quickly disappeared.
After the battle.
Huo Jilin and his companions looked at the old man with gratitude.
They deeply realized that in this dangerous tomb passage.
Leave them alone.
A cooperative partner is also indispensable.
The old man showed a satisfied smile on his face.
"Young man."
"Keep going all the way."
"There are more tests waiting for you."
Huo Jilin and his companions bowed deeply to the old man to express their gratitude.
Hearts filled with courage and determination.
They re-equipped.
Prepared to move on.
Strong winds and heavy rain.
Lightning streaked across the sky.
Thunder roared and deafened.
In an ancient building deep in the terracotta area.
Huo Jilin and an elderly man were sitting in a secret room with dim candlelight and talking.
The walls of the secret room were covered with mysterious and simple murals.
It seemed to be telling a legendary story that had happened before.
The elderly man was the caretaker of this mysterious building.
He had silver hair.
His face was full of wrinkles.
But his eyes revealed an unfathomable wisdom.
Huo Jilin told the old man about his experience with the black-faced centipede.
And asked the old man if he knew how to deal with these terrifying creatures.
"Young man."
"The answer you are looking for is not in fighting."
The old man spoke slowly.
"The black-faced centipedes living in this ancient tomb are extremely ferocious."
"But they are not invincible."
Huo Jilin was stunned.
He couldn't help asking.
"Then what do you think, senior?"
The old man smiled slightly.
He took out an old book from his arms and handed it to Huo Jilin.
"This is something outside of my body."
"It records the method of subduing the black-faced centipede."
Huo Jilin took the book and read it carefully.
The book describes a special cooking method.
It is said that as long as the black-faced centipede is specially treated and then mixed, it can be out of danger.
"So that's it!"
Huo Jilin suddenly understood.
"Thank you for your advice, senior!"
Just when the two were about to go out to collect the materials needed for the production.
Suddenly, a violent shaking came.
Several oil lamps on the wall were shaking.
The atmosphere in the secret room became tense.
"Go!"
The old man looked at the ceiling and exclaimed.
The next moment.
With a loud bang.
A huge black-faced centipede as big as a mountain fell from the ceiling.
It fell heavily to the ground.
The entire secret room was suddenly filled with its twisting and twitching body.
The two almost suffocated in the strong toxic breath.
"We can only fight to the death!"
The old man growled.
Huo Jilin also drew out his sword and confronted him without showing any weakness.
The retreat behind him was blocked.
In this life-and-death struggle.
Both of them knew in their hearts that only victory could survive.
The black-faced centipede roared and pounced on them.
The momentum surged like a storm.
The old man suddenly put his palm on a place in front of his chest.
And muttered something.
In an instant, the air in the secret room fluctuated abnormally.
Under the surprised gaze of the two, a layer of light curtain was actually constructed to block the attack of the black-faced centipede.
"This is the forbidden technique "Mirror is hard to see"!"
The old man explained with surprise and then warned.
"We have to hurry up!"
Under the protection of the light curtain, they were able to take a breath.
And they worked together again to fight against this huge monster.
The sharp sword shone with cold light.
Leaving small cracks on the hard shell of the black-faced centipede.
After several fierce battles.
After continuously casting multiple spells, they survived and turned danger into safety.
Huo Jilin tightly grasped the torch in his hand.
He stared firmly at the approaching giant black-faced centipede.
Behind him.
A row of small black-faced centipedes came like a tide.
It made a harsh hissing sound.
Huo Jilin knew in his heart.
If they couldn't subdue the giant black-faced centipede in time.
They would be completely drowned by these poisonous insects.
"We need to think of a way to deal with the giant black-faced centipede. "
Huo Jilin turned to his companions.
Wang Kaixuan waved the sword in his hand.
His brows were furrowed.
"It has no fear of fire."
"What should we do in this situation?"
"I have a bold idea."
Huo Jilin looked at the firewood and hay piled on the high platform in the distance.
"We can use those firewood and hay to create a bigger flame."
Wang Kaixuan pondered for a moment.
Nodded.
"It's worth a try. "
So.
Huo Jilin and Wang Kaixuan quickly moved the firewood and hay piled around to a place not far from the giant black-faced centipede.
They carefully stacked these combustibles.
And lit one corner with a torch.
As the flames rose.
Under the strong light.
The whole cave was illuminated.
The small black-faced centipedes screamed under the flames.
They fled in all directions.
However.
The giant black-faced centipede only lowered its body slightly.
It did not stop moving forward.
Its huge body flashed a strange luster in the firelight.
It looked extremely ferocious.
"How could it not be afraid of fire?"
Wang Kaixuan asked in surprise.
Huo Jilin frowned.
"Maybe we underestimated this monster. "
At this moment.
A rumbling sound came from the depths of the cave.
A stronger and more foul smell spread.
Then a new front emerged from the darkness - a huge army of beetles covered with hard shells, with multiple sharp teeth and deadly stingers showing bloodthirsty killing intent!
Seeing this sudden change.
Huo Jilin and Wang Kaixuan suddenly felt desperate.
"How do we deal with it?"
Wang Kaixuan tightly grasped the sword in his hand.
