Listening to Xiaoling's warnings, Hu Yuan pondered his next move. At that moment, the venomous bug's front limbs slammed fiercely into the ground, and hundreds of bone spurs shot toward him like sharp arrows, leaving trails of pale purple poisonous mist in the air.
Hu Yuan channeled his spiritual power into the Tiangang Sword, shooting like an arrow from a bow straight at the bug's protruding abdomen. Sensing mortal danger, the bug ducked, and the Tiangang Sword struck the rhombus-shaped bone spike protruding from its back, accompanied by a crisp cracking sound. Struck with pain, the bug attacked like an enraged lion.
Hu Yuan flicked his figure, swiftly executing the "Tiangang Step" to evade the three lightning-fast bone spurs. Yet, despite his extreme speed, the three spurs grazed his waist, unleashing a searing agony. The agonizing pain felt like being scorched by strong acid, instantly spreading throughout his entire body. Hu Yuan's skin felt as though it were being burned by raging fire or corroded by sulfuric acid, sending a piercing pain straight to his core. Looking down, he saw that the clothing at his waist had been eaten away into several charred holes, while the flesh at the wound was festering at an alarming rate, as if consumed by some horrific toxin.
