Just at the moment the insect corpse was exposed to the air, Zi Liyuan keenly sensed that something was wrong.
A fleeting wisp of dark energy quickly seeped into the insect corpse's brain.
The insect corpse, once frozen into a lump of ice, suddenly vibrated for a moment. If it weren't for Zi Liyuan's Spirit probing the area with his mind continuously scanning the map, he would have thought it was just an illusion.
"Old Iron, back off!"
With a powerful shout, Zi Liyuan immediately leaped back over a hundred meters.
Old Iron wasn't slow either, his powerful burst of strength not only kicked up a ten-meter-wide pit on the frozen ground but also managed to kick the frozen insect corpse away, using the recoil to launch himself toward Zi Liyuan, similarly covering over a hundred meters.
A sharp "crack" rang out, especially clear in the silent eternal night.
A "hiss" sound of insects echoed in the dark night.
