Chapter 1111: Chapter 1067: Parasitic
Seeing Weng Zongfang appear and completely shut down the teleportation formation, all cultivators in the teleportation hall couldnât help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Even Chen Feiâs expression slightly relaxed.
Just now, Chen Fei had been ready to step forward and close the teleportation formation using the Space Rules, but he refrained from doing so when he sensed Weng Zongfangâs arrival.
However, facing the soul-devouring worms personally still deeply shocked Chen Fei.
The undisguised malice was Chen Feiâs first impression of these soul-devouring worms.

And there was that look in the eyes of the soul-devouring worms, a greed that seemed to devour everything.
Looking at you, they seemed to wish they could crack your bones and suck out your marrow, sending chills down your spine.
âEmperor, where are the soul-devouring worms now?â Yu Wuheng turned his head and asked Weng Zongfang.
âStill tens of thousands of miles away, they just caught the fluctuations from the teleportation formation. This group of soul-devouring worms has too strong a sense of space!â
Weng Zongfang frowned, went to another teleportation formation, and immediately activated it.
But it was only for a moment before Weng Zongfang shut it down again.
Weng Zongfang tried several more teleportation formations, but ended up shutting them all down.
The soul-devouring worms had indeed locked onto the fluctuations from Jiguang Cityâs teleportation formation. At this moment, activating any teleportation formation would allow the soul-devouring worms to teleport directly to Jiguang City.
âThe teleportation formation canât be used anymore, everyone follow me!â Weng Zongfang said and immediately soared into the sky.

The other cultivators paused for a moment, but without hesitation, they followed Weng Zongfang.
Yu Wuheng turned to give Chen Fei a nod, then his figure vanished.
Chen Fei looked back at Yu Wuheng; without a word, he followed everyone along with Yu Dingshan.
Since the teleportation formation couldnât be used, they had to rely on the flight speed of the cultivators themselves. Setting up a new teleportation formation wasnât easy either.
Besides, even if they wanted to set up a new teleportation formation, it definitely couldnât be inside Jiguang City, otherwise, those soul-devouring worms would still detect it.
Nearly two hundred cultivators streaked across the sky. Weng Zongfang summoned a ship, and everyone landed on it.
The ship trembled slightly, speeding off at its maximum velocity.
Whether it would damage the ship was no longer a concern for Weng Zongfang and Tang Yunshou; their priority was to widen the gap between them and the soul-devouring worms.
In the blink of an eye, half an hour passed. Weng Zongfangâs and Tang Yunshouâs expressions changed slightly; several secret markers within the boundary of Jiguang City had already lost their signals.
From the locations where these markers were destroyed, it was apparent the soul-devouring worms had changed their course. Instead of heading for Jiguang City, they were now following the direction of their ship.
The worst scenario they had feared happened.
It was that there were too many cultivators gathered together, and each cultivatorâs mystical treasure contained so many people.
A typical cultivator almost cannot see through a mystical treasure to tell whether other cultivators carry people with them.
But these soul-devouring worms clearly detect living beings in a way different from the cultivatorsâ standard methods.
In the eyes of the soul-devouring worms, the ship now carried a whole cityâs population of life. Compared to the empty Jiguang City, the ship was obviously more attractive.
âSpread out!â
Tang Yunshou and Weng Zongfang exchanged glances. Tang Yunshou leaped from the ship, also taking out a similar flying vessel, and shouted:
âHalf of you, follow me; the rest stay.â
All cultivators on the ship automatically dispersed. This division had been prearranged, so it was quickly completed.
In the Black Stone Domain recently, the number of beings killed by soul-devouring worms had been so high that any extreme possibility was within the realm of consideration.
Weng Zongfangâs and Tang Yunshouâs ships split up and flew off in different directions.
Chen Fei stood inside Tang Yunshouâs ship, his brows tightly knit. He looked back at the clouds behind them. Tens of thousands of miles away, overwhelming malice emanated from that direction.
The Indestructible Vision kept warning him, reminding Chen Fei to get as far away as possible.
The soul-devouring worms roamed the entire Black Stone Domain, searching for something, seemingly also waiting for something.
And in this process of searching and waiting, devouring any beings they came across became a necessary act for the soul-devouring worms.
Even though the vital energy of heaven and earth in the Black Stone Domain was somewhat scarce, there were still some Races with a cultivation foundation, and devouring these beings also nourished the cultivation of the soul-devouring worms.
âEveryone, scatter!â
Less than a quarter of an hour later, Tang Yunshouâs voice echoed through the entire ship.
Tang Yunshou floated in mid-air, a troubled expression on his face. The worst scenario had still occurredâthe soul-devouring worms relentlessly pursued the ship.
Tang Yunshou had no idea about the situation on Weng Zongfangâs side, but he guessed it wouldnât be much better than here.
These soul-devouring worms were aiming for the residents of Jiguang City. They had no intention of leaving without devouring the cityâs inhabitants.
In other stronger domains, there were Races that could fight the soul-devouring worms, even directly destroy them.
But in the Black Stone Domain, the soul-devouring worms easily dominated all Races, to the extent that even killing a single worm was daunting.
The only option was to run.
Because running still held a chance of survival, whereas defeating the soul-devouring worms would leave them being hunted down to the ends of the earth.
Nearly a hundred cultivators looked up at Tang Yunshou, saluted him, and then nearly a hundred streaks of light flew out from the ship, heading towards the distance.
âChen Fei, letâs meet at Pianyi City!â Yu Dingshan turned his head to look at Chen Fei and shouted loudly.
Pianyi City, located at the southernmost end of the Black Stone Domain.
The Wu Meng Clan wouldnât allow cultivators from other races to leave the Black Stone Domain; otherwise, if they moved too far, irregularities would appear on the soul tokens. Therefore, the cities at the boundary of the Black Stone Domain became the only choice.
Jiguang City had fallen; looking at the current attitude of the Soul-devouring Worms, it was clear they treated the living beings of various races within the Black Stone Domain as their food supply.
Continuing towards other cities of the human race would likely attract the attention of the Soul-devouring Worms, where it might be better to head to the boundary cities to possibly avoid the Soul-devouring Wormsâ pursuit.
People from the other four human cities, upon seeing the fate of Jiguang City, would probably make the same choice.
Staying in the current cities was far too unsafe.
While the teleportation formations were still operational, it was best to move to one of the boundary cities first.
âTake care!â Chen Fei said to Yu Dingshan as he bowed with his hands clasped, then he transformed into a beam of rainbow light and disappeared.
Yu Dingshan turned his head to glance back; Tang Yunshouâs ship had not yet departed, so he decided to wait until all the mid-stage Rule Integration Realm cultivators were sufficiently far before evacuating.
As a cultivator at the peak of the Rule Integration Realm, Tang Yunshou attracted Soul-devouring Worms more strongly than others; thus, he could afford to buy some time for other human mid-stage Rule Integration Realm cultivators.
Aboard the ship, Tang Yunshou looked in the direction from which the Soul-devouring Worms were coming, his gaze deep and contemplative.
Lately, things were really piling up for the human race.
Of course, it wasnât just the human race; the entire Black Stone Domain was plunged into severe distress.
Facing a crisis comparable to extinction, the human race had survived several similar ordeals over the long years, and each time, they pulled through.
Tang Yunshou hoped that during these tough times, the human race would endure once again, continuing to survive in the vastness of the Return to Nothing Realm.
Chen Fei had flown more than ten thousand miles, and the Indestructible Visionâs warning weakened slightly, but he was still in a life-threatening state.
Clearly, the speed Chen Fei was currently showcasing wasnât enough to shake off the Soul-devouring Worms.
As Chen Fei considered whether to increase his speed, his brow suddenly furrowed minorly as he looked ahead.
Several thoughts flashed through Chen Feiâs mind; his form shifted, changing direction as he continued to fly. However, it was just a short time before Chen Fei stopped again.
âThe three of you have been following me, what exactly do you want!â Chen Fei shouted toward a direction on his right, his voice grave.
âYou truly are unusual; no wonder the Ice Race and Evil Clans want to kill you sooner rather than later!â
Three figures seemed to emerge from the void, and Xing Gong looked at Chen Fei with interest.
âDid the Ice Race and Evil Clans send you?â
Chen Fei eyed the three figures before him â none of them belonged to the races of the Black Stone Domain, and their aura was somewhat peculiar, which involuntarily reminded Chen Fei of the Soul-devouring Worms he had just witnessed.
The aura of the three individuals, to some extent, was very similar to that of the Soul-devouring Worms.
Although only in the mid-stage of the Rule Integration Realm, they looked exceedingly eerie.
âHahaha, the Ice Race and Evil Clans? What are they, to send me!â
Xing Gong grinned, his pupils morphing into the vertical slits similar to those of the Soul-devouring Worms, creating a deeply unsettling sight.
It wasnât just Xing Gong; the other two individualsâ pupils also transformed similarly, and the aura of the Soul-devouring Worms around them intensified.
Chen Feiâs brow creased slightly, realizing the identity of the three figures before him â the Scavengers following the Soul-devouring Worms.
In recent times, many races had not perished by the Soul-devouring Worms but rather by the hands of these Scavengers.
Chen Fei vanished into mid-air and sped off into the distance, trying to shake off the three Scavengers.
âThink you can leave now? Isnât it a bit late for that!â
Xing Gong burst out laughing loudly, his mouth splitting open unnaturally wide, the corners of his lips tearing towards the base of his ears.
The next moment, Xing Gong and the other two instantly disappeared and reappeared in front of Chen Fei, enveloping him in an immense suction force around his entire body.
Simultaneously in the sky above, a huge gaping maw covered in ferocious oral appendages appeared on the Heavenly Phenomenon Cover, as if to devour Chen Fei directly.
Chen Fei stopped and looking upwards as he raised his right hand, slowly clenching it towards Xing Gong and the others.
In an instant, the space around Xing Gong and the others suddenly collapsed, and chains formed by the Space Secondary Rules bound them in a flash.
Space Binding!
Xing Gong and the others felt the power of the space chains around them tighten, their vertical pupils abruptly contracting as they found themselves unable to resist.
From the fragmented souls of other Black Stone Domain races, they had learned about this prodigious human, and having just encountered him, Xing Gong and the others naturally would not let him go.
However, Xing Gong hadnât expected that they would be subdued in a single move, a baffling notion given their status as mid-stage Rule Integration Realm cultivators, while Chen Fei was only in the early stage.
Even though Chen Fei bore the name of a prodigy, how exceptional could a prodigy from a remote place like the Black Stone Domain be?
But now, Xing Gong and his companions felt it,
âYou canât kill us; if you kill us, you wonât survive either!â
As Xing Gongâs palm closed, he suddenly shouted aloud.
Following Xing Gongâs shout, his chest split open, and a pair of white antennae emerged from within.
Soul-devouring Worms!
Inside Xing Gongâs body, Soul-devouring Worms coexisted, or rather, were parasitic.
Chen Fei suddenly understood why the rumors said Scavengers werenât attacked by Soul-devouring Worms; it was because they were inherently one entity.
