Chapter 498: Chapter 499: Fei Yue!

After saying goodbye to everyone, Gu Xing headed to the Snow Domain without any hesitation.

Here lays a void gateway linking the Insect Race and Alternate Space.

Traveling to the Insect Realm through this void gateway is currently the fastest way.

Returning to familiar grounds.

The sight before him remained unchanged, with miles of ice and the cold wind swirling with flurries of snow, familiar coldness biting at his face.

Gu Xing paused for a moment, looking at this familiar snowy plain, his heart filled with indescribable complex emotions.

Here, he was once forced to face the Insect Emperor, marking his first real encounter with a Pseudo-Divine Level existence.

The result of that battle was his humiliating retreat to the Angel Realm.

Yet now…

Gu Xing’s lips slowly curled into a cruel smile.

If he doesn’t force it* out, it would count as going easy!

At this moment, the shadows and crevices in the surrounding snow field were teeming with countless Insect Race figures lurking.

Their scarlet compound eyes fixated on Gu Xing and his companions, mandibles clacking, producing unsettling rustling noises.

However, a fear stemming from their primal instinct gripped the consciousness of these lower insects tightly.

Even with their low intelligence, they understood…

Any intent to attack would bring about complete and instantaneous destruction.

They recoiled, not daring to advance.

But while they were reluctant to act, Gu Xing had no intention of letting this swarm of insects go.

In the past, the sheer numbers of these insects were left unhandled due to limited power.

But now…

Tushan Yueli had control over the Divine Position of Alternate Space.

Within the Alternate Space, her power was genuinely at the Divine Level.

Without needing Gu Xing’s command, Tushan Yueli stepped forward gracefully.

She raised her delicate hand, fingers slightly spread, palm facing the insect-tainted icy kingdom.

The intangible Power of Laws spread with her intent, enveloping the entire Snow Domain.

In an instant, regardless of how deep beneath the ice or hidden in twisted void cracks the insects were concealed.

They were forcibly extracted and restrained by an irresistible force.

As if grasped by an invisible hand, they converged densely before her in midair, forming a writhing, nauseating swarm.

Tushan Yueli’s eyes remained indifferent, as if she were simply sweeping away insignificant dust.

She slowly curled her fingers.

“Pop—pop pop pop—!”

As her fingers clenched, the massive swarm in the air was crushed by an enormous invisible grip, insect bodies bursting one after another.

Dark green, foul-smelling blood and limbs poured down like a rainstorm, yet were restrained by certain forces before touching the ice and snow.

Lilith had long been waiting nearby.

A glint of determination flashed in her eyes.

Watching as all of Gu Xing’s Guardian Beasts gained recognition from the Divine Position, while she alone was unable to take the final step.

A strong sense of urgency drove her to seize every opportunity to grow stronger.

Even if she couldn’t merge with a Divine Position, she had to raise her power to the Pseudo-God Realm, unwilling to become a burden to Gu Xing.

Without hesitation, she unleashed her power, drawing in, swallowing, and refining all the scattered insect blood.

Pure blood energy surged into her body, eagerly absorbed.

Focused entirely on increasing her power, she failed to notice…

As she absorbed the insect blood, the once dormant Divine Position within her body.

Its surface quietly spread with faint blood-red patterns, hinting at a very weak connection with her essence.

However, as the last drop of insect blood was completely absorbed, that slight connection quietly vanished like a kite with a broken string.

The Divine Position returned to silence, as if the previous stirring was just an illusion.

And Gu Xing did not stop Lilith’s actions.

It wasn’t until Lilith fully absorbed the blood that he fixed his gaze upon the sky.

There, an unstable, chaotic, and greedy void rift silently opened.

This was the gateway to the Insect Realm.

The next step was to delve into the Insect Realm, to reclaim Fei Yue and acquire the final Divine Position.

Then…

To head straight to the Demon Abyss, and resolve the causality spanning countless epochs!

With this thought, Gu Xing’s eyes turned sharply resolved.

He hesitated no longer, his figure transforming into a stream of light, leading straight into the pitch-black, profound void gateway.

Behind him, all the Guardian Beasts turned into various hues of radiance, swiftly following, disappearing into the entrance of that void gateway.

…

Insect Realm.

Viscous dark energy surged like tides, engulfing this entire area.

Seven colossal, mountain-like fearsome figures, each distinct in form.

Positioned in encirclement, trapping a slender figure at their core.

It was Fei Yue.

At this moment, a gentle divine aura flowed around Fei Yue.

As if becoming one with the entire Insect Realm.

She had successfully obtained the Divine Position of the Insect Realm, becoming the successor of this world.

Precisely because of this, despite her power being inferior to the seven ancient Insect Emperors who had devoured countless realms and accumulated millennia of power before her.

Capturing her was still an impossible feat.

“Just you mindless devourers think you can catch me?”

“Do better! Nyah nyah nyah…”

Her words clearly enraged these pinnacle beings of the Insect Race.

A colossal, violent aura erupted, almost solidifying and shattering the void.

However, just as the attack was about to reach her, Fei Yue’s figure blurred and stretched like an illusion, completely vanishing.

Now that she controlled the Divine Position, her void abilities were greatly enhanced.

Although her offensive power was still weaker than an average Divine Level, her survival ability…

In the Insect Realm, unless the world met its end, she would remain safe.

“She got away again!”

A violent spirit thought erupted among the seven Insect Emperors.

“No matter.”

“Though she controls the Divine Position, she is not without flaws.”

“Have you noticed, during the recent chases and blockades, her disappearance and reappearance locations…”

“Are increasingly close to the edges!.”

“That area is where a void gateway to Alternate Space exists! The spatial structure is incredibly chaotic, and it doesn’t wholly belong to the Insect Realm.”

“There, her control over the Divine Position will be greatly weakened, unable to escape at will as she does now.”

“As long as we drive her there, that’s our chance.”

The seven terrifying consciousnesses rapidly came to a consensus.

They didn’t pursue in the direction Fei Yue vanished, instead subtly adjusting their encirclement.

Like an invisible net, gradually tightening towards the edge of the Insect Realm, where the void gateway lay.

Fei Yue was still unaware that a hunt targeting her had begun!

Though she sensed that…

In recent transfers, there seemed to be an invisible pressure steering her towards a fixed direction.

Yet constrained by her own power, she didn’t pay much heed.

After all, she controlled a Divine Position and was the god of the entire Insect Realm.

How could a bunch of insects outplay her?
