Chapter 855: The war is going badly, and it is difficult to move forward
Mount Tai.
After the demonic catastrophe, Mount Tai collapsed and sank into a huge abyss with a diameter of dozens of miles, directly leading to the space transmission node of the earth.
Taoist Mosquito commanded the magic insects to pour a large amount of blood sea water into the abyss, and dug out countless sieve-like caves on the cliffs on both sides of the abyss, using this place as a forward camp for attacking the mortal world.
The abyss filled with blood serves as a breeding ground for the demon mosquitoes, and the caves on both sides are stationed with billions of hatched mosquito soldiers.
In an underground palace deep in the grotto cave, in the empty underground palace hall, the soft and cold light emitted by countless fireflies illuminates the hall.
In the center of the hall, a huge velvet hammock was woven with soft and dense silk nets. On the hammock, several naked beauties lay down, with their delicate bodies entangled together, taking a lazily nap.
The several humanoid creatures with obvious female features on the insect nest hammock are none other than the five witches that Taoist Mosquito and she had trained.
At first glance, this rather charming scene looks very much like the harem of some licentious devil, as if all the concubines are naked waiting for their master's favor.
But in fact, these female Zergs did nothing but huddled together to hibernate in order to slow down their metabolism and save blood consumption.
The advanced life forms at the top of the food chain consume countless times more food just for breathing than the lower life forms do throughout their entire lives.
In the absence of a new source of blood, the resources needed to feed the five witches and Mosquito Taoist are enough to hatch millions of magic insects.
The financial situation of the Heavenly Court was stretched to the limit, and the Blood Sea Demons were equally difficult. There was a shortage of water, and no place to hunt for blood food, so the army of demon insects had to rely entirely on the blood sea water drawn from the earth to maintain its supply.
The sea level of the Blood Sea is dropping every day, like a countdown water clock, marking the time limit for the Blood Sea Demons to be defeated and extinct.
The five witches all fell into a deep sleep, only the Mosquito Taoist in female form had a sad face and tossed and turned in sleep.
According to Taoist Mosquito's original idea, the Taishan Blood Pool Base was only a temporary base.
In order to resist the attack of gods and Buddhas, a large number of demon mosquitoes rushed to all directions of the prehistoric land, occupied major rivers and lakes, and introduced blood into these natural water bodies, transforming them all into blood swamps, creating the most suitable environment for the demon mosquitoes to reproduce and thrive.
The surface of the mortal world is full of nests for breeding demon mosquitoes. If they are everywhere, even if the gods and Buddhas want to organize an army to strangle them, the huge disparity in numbers and the constant replenishment speed of new demon mosquitoes will make it impossible to kill them all.
It's a pity that ideals are full and reality is very skinny. As soon as he rushed into the mortal world, Mosquito Taoist found that he had fallen into a trap. He also understood why Wen Rui had built an iron defense position outside the Ghost Gate and tried every means to stop the army of demon mosquitoes for more than three months.
He used these three months to build a strong defense system, clear the countryside, and cut off the firewood, turning the vibrant mortal world into a desolate land. He drained the water from all lakes and seas and hid billions of creatures.
One wrong step leads to another. The expected blitzkrieg to occupy the mortal world was thwarted after the enemy's plan of rapid expansion. Misfortunes followed one after another, and now it is even more difficult. Billions of demon insects dare not even show their heads above the ground to breathe a breath of fresh air.
Now the activities of the demon insects have almost come to a standstill. Even if they use the lake water they traded with Wen Rui before to reproduce tens of millions of demon soldiers, they dare not rashly launch a hunt on the settlements of Western religious believers.
Originally, Taoist Mosquito had fully upgraded the pheromone command system through summarizing his failures to ensure that Wen Rui would never hack into the system again and randomly mobilize the insect swarm.
At the same time, they developed several special demon insects that could counter thunder spells, such as lightning rod insects and cloud-repelling insects. They also decided to send all five witches to attack the Western Church next time. Before the battle, they would dig out the blood river formation map under the target and fill it with blood in advance. If Wen Rui dared to lead his troops to disrupt the situation again, they would launch the blood sea formation.
He vowed to teach Wen Rui a profound lesson. Even if the Blood River Formation could not kill him, he would at least make him lose a layer of skin.
However, the plan did not change quickly. They had just selected the Lingjiu Cave in the Great Snow Mountain, where Buddha attained enlightenment, as the target of attack, and before they had time to mobilize the army of demon insects and deploy them near the target, they encountered a terrorist attack from heaven.
In just one night, hundreds of millions of demon insects were reduced to ashes, and Mosquito Taoist lost one tenth of his troops.
To make matters worse, ever since the night of the skyfire attack, Taishan Blood Abyss, as the most obvious and important strategic target of the Blood Sea Demon Clan, began daily skyfire bombings.
The first few rounds of bombing were so sudden that almost all the blood water accumulated in the abyss was evaporated.
Fortunately, the sunshade rock dome built on the abyss blood pool was made of the Five Elements Mountain Rock created by the Buddha's great supernatural power.
This kind of rock has a strong resistance to the extremely yang nature of the sun's true fire, and is able to barely withstand the continuous exposure to the heavenly fire.
Mosquito Taoist couldn't help but feel scared. If he had used ordinary rocks to build the dome, his nest would have been destroyed and everything would be ruined.
Even though he had taken every precaution, he had already predicted that Wen Rui must be holding back a big move and was deliberately planning to attack his army of demon mosquitoes, so he had taken all the defensive measures he could.
But no one expected that the guy would actually take out such a powerful weapon that was completely unrealistic and left no chance of survival for the Zerg.
The sky fire attack comes from the heaven. In order to enter the heaven, one must break through the four heavenly gates. To attack the four heavenly gates, one must organize the swarm of insects to fly high into the sky. The dense swarm of insects flying high into the sky is just a living target for the sky fire.
The loop is interconnected and has led to a vicious circle. From the perspective of Taoist Mosquito, there is no way to break out of the situation and he can only passively take the beating.
Not to mention how difficult it is to attack the Four Heavenly Gates, just the large-scale heavenly fire that can be launched at any time and anywhere without interruption, no matter how many demon insects are gathered, they are like moths to a flame, there is no way back.
Just as he was worrying, Taoist Mosquito suddenly felt a burst of heat in the hall. Even in the deepest part of the underground palace, the heat still poured in through the winding and deep corridors.
This hot wind was not ordinary summer heat, the temperature was over a thousand degrees. The fireflies with less heat resistance were hit directly by the hot wind and were roasted half-cooked on the spot. They fell to the ground with smoke and the fluorescence of their tails went out.
The hot wind blew through the insect nest, and the five sleeping witches suddenly felt uncomfortable. They rubbed their bodies and moaned in sweat, then turned over and continued to sleep.
Taoist Mosquito knew that the heavenly fire from heaven had begun again.
At this time, even though the dome has been reinforced as much as possible, all the fragments of the Five Elements Mountain have been collected, and all the gaps have been sealed, the entire Blood Abyss Cave is still like a steamer. Even the temperature in the deepest part of the underground palace has reached more than a thousand degrees, and the temperature on the periphery is as high as several thousand degrees.
Like cutting meat with a blunt knife, two rounds of sunlight and sky fire focus on the Taishan Blood Pool every day and shine for one hour. The purpose is to continuously evaporate the blood sea water accumulated in the abyss, scorch the magic insects hiding in the abyss, and continuously weaken the war potential of the blood sea demons.
