I've already reached the Nascent Soul stage, and you're saying I didn't time travel?

Chapter 92 An unexpected gain
It is nearly 20 meters long and looks very similar to a scorpion. Its body is covered with a golden carapace. At the front are thick and powerful pincer-like chelicerae, followed by dozens of pairs of appendages and walking legs. Its body is arranged in a trapezoidal, overlapping segmented manner. At the very back is a tail that is dozens of segments long, with a swollen tip from which another mouthpart grows.

The flattened, segmented creature that had just emerged from the ground was actually just its exposed tail!

When netizens saw the monster's overall appearance, they were all stunned:
"Holy crap! How can something like this exist in the world?!"

"This looks so creepy, it's like a creature from a nightmare!"

"Speaking of which, isn't its mouth in the wrong place? Shouldn't that be the location of its venom sac?"

"Perhaps during the process of evolution, the venom sac gradually transformed into mouthparts? Many ferocious beasts may not be poisoned to death, but they can certainly be bitten to death."

"That's outrageous! Who the hell told you to stick your tail out to hunt?!"

"It's so arousing, I really want to grab its tail and fuck it until it's so hot."

"Oh no, Third Brother is about to type GG."

……

When the giant scorpion appeared in its true form, Bharata's red demon warrior was also taken aback.

While they were stunned, the enraged giant scorpion suddenly scrambled forward.

Despite its enormous size and considerable weight, it moved with incredible speed across the soft sand and gravel, covering dozens of meters in the blink of an eye and arriving right in front of us.

Faced with this unprecedentedly terrifying giant scorpion, the Red Devil warriors panicked and could only raise their submachine guns and desperately fire forward.

The bullets transformed into a torrent of metal, hurtling forward at high speed, but only creating a series of sparks on the giant scorpion's body.

The hard exoskeleton, formed entirely by the exoskeleton, is like the thick armor of an armored vehicle, firmly protecting the soft body inside.

No matter how much ammunition the Red Devils poured out, they were unable to break through the defenses.

Even the firing of a howitzer only made it stagger and gave it a few more cracks on its armor, but it still failed to seriously damage it.

The giant scorpion, which had rushed close, suddenly swung its tail, which was tens of meters long.

The tail, which had been damaged by the explosion, had somehow recovered completely.

The sharp edges of its tail, like sword blades, whistled through the air.

In an instant, everything, including the surrounding trees and dozens of Red Demon warriors, was cut in half at the waist.

Blood gushed down, trees crashed down, and the earth shook violently.

The scene was filled with piercing screams and agonizing howls, mixed with the boiling bloodlust, making it resemble a living hell.

Upon seeing this, the remaining Red Demon warriors instantly collapsed.

Without a second thought, they immediately fled frantically into the dense forest, away from the gravel ground.

Seeing this, the giant scorpion did not immediately give chase. Instead, it used its appendages to frantically paw at the ground, and soon its entire massive body sank into the sea like a stone sinking into the ocean.

Just as the scattered and fleeing Red Demon warriors thought the giant scorpion's pursuit had stopped.

A long tail suddenly burst out of the ground, its sharp tip sweeping across like a whirlwind, instantly exploding into clouds of blood mist.

In less than a minute, the fleeing Red Devil warriors met their grand deaths one after another, without missing a single one.

The entire dense forest quickly returned to its former tranquility.

As the giant scorpion dragged the carcass into the ground, there wasn't a single comment on the screen; netizens were simply shocked by its ferocity.

Many netizens only came to their senses when the video abruptly cut off.

In an instant, Qi Xuan's live stream room was flooded with a torrent of comments:
"What the hell is this?! How can it be so brutal?!"

"You're telling me this thing is a scorpion? What kind of scorpion would attack like that?!"

"The destructive power of that tail is too strong. It can be used like a sword. Even bulletproof vests can't withstand its aerial slash."

"Where's Third Brother who was showing off just now? It seems your Red Demon Warrior didn't receive Brahma's protection either."

"This isn't a problem with the Red Demon Warriors, but rather that the giant scorpion monster is far too powerful. No one in this world can withstand it. The Red Demon Warriors can't, and neither can anyone else!"

"That's right. Anyone with eyes can see the fighting power of that giant scorpion monster. It's not something that can be easily defeated by human power. If it were an exploration team from another country, they might have done even worse."

"Those who mock the Crimson Warriors, think about it yourselves. If you went up there, could you withstand a single blow from that scorpion monster? If you can't even do it yourselves, what right do you have to mock the Crimson Warriors?"

"Let alone ordinary people like you, even Qi Xuan inside the light screen is destined to be devoured by the giant scorpion monster!"

"Hmph, the giant scorpion is right in front of us. Just you wait and see! His fate might be even worse than that of the Red Demon Warrior!"

……

The netizens of Daqian had no time to refute, because the giant scorpion's tail had already reached Qi Xuan.

Throughout the entire process, it remained completely relaxed, traversing a mere few dozen meters across the gravel ground for several minutes, appearing as if it were casually toying with its prey and watching it struggle, its behavior appearing quite malicious.

Qi Xuan did not struggle much. His lower body was already submerged in the sand, but his expression remained calm.

The giant scorpion slowly swam up to him, opened its mouth wide, and made as if it was about to pounce.

Just then, Qi Xuan threw a chunk of meat into its mouth.

With a "gulp," the scorpion's tail didn't even have time to react before swallowing the chunk of flesh.

Even if it realizes what's happening, it probably won't be able to spit it out, because its mouthparts are full of barbs, making it naturally unsuitable for spitting things out.

After swallowing the chunk of meat, the giant scorpion seemed a little dazed, probably because no one had ever deliberately put anything into its mouthparts before.

But even if the weak submit, it will only further incite its brutal killing intent.

The scorpion's mouthparts suddenly opened, lunging straight down at Qi Xuan, ready to swallow his head whole.

Just then, Qi Xuan, who seemed to have been stuck in the quicksand for a long time and unable to move, suddenly flipped over and sprang out of the quicksand, directly avoiding the scorpion's tail bite, and landed in the bushes not far away.

This scene was unexpected not only by the viewers in the live stream, but also by Scorpion Tail himself, who was on-site.

Upon discovering Qi Xuan rushing out, it immediately became enraged, its sharp tail slashing forward like a long knife.

Qi Xuan leaped to the side, narrowly avoiding the scorpion's tail strike.

After that, he danced on the edge of a knife, using astonishing agility and anticipation to dodge the scorpion's tail strikes every time.

The woodland was filled with the whistling of the wind and the crashing of trees falling.

But strangely enough, he was completely unharmed.

That fancy footwork almost left netizens speechless.

However, they soon realized something was wrong.

Because the scorpion's tail strikes are slowing down, and their momentum is not as fierce and powerful as it was at the beginning.

Finally, after it struck again, the seemingly indestructible sharp shell shattered on the spot!
At the same time, the earth roared violently, and then the giant scorpion, which had been hiding underground, crawled out.

However, compared to the one that had slaughtered the Red Devil exploration team, this one was clearly not quite right. It was limp and powerless, as if it were drunk.

At this moment, many netizens suddenly remembered the meatball that Qi Xuan had initially put into his mouth.

There must be something wrong with that piece of meat!

In fact, just as they suspected, Qi Xuan had wrapped the meat chunks with bone-rotting grass.

He had drawn this bone-rotting herb after killing the round-striped leech, but he had never had the chance to use it until he encountered this golden sand scorpion.

The Golden Sand Scorpion is one of the top predators. Apart from its flat, blade-shaped tail, its special armor, made entirely of exoskeleton, is enough to make it immune to most attacks. However, the bone-rotting grass, which can dissolve bones, is its greatest nemesis.

Unfortunately, I only managed to get one.

At most, it can only soften its exoskeleton, not kill it on the spot.

But softening is enough.

Seeing the Golden Sand Scorpion break free of the drug's effects and emerge from the ground, Qi Xuan didn't waste any more time. He swallowed a Giant Strength Pill, attached a Vajra Talisman to himself, and charged forward. After dodging the Golden Sand Scorpion's giant pincers, he flipped over and leaped onto its back.

Aiming at the vulnerable armor plates where the head, chest, and back connect, he slammed his fist down.

With a crisp "crack," the scale that was usually hidden inside other carapaces broke open on the spot after being weakened by the bone-rotting grass and subjected to a tremendous impact.

The golden sand scorpion struggled violently, its tail whipping wildly at Qi Xuan, but it couldn't break through the Vajra Talisman's defense for the time being.

Taking advantage of the time it took for the Vajra Talisman to take effect, he unleashed a flurry of powerful strikes with his Gale Palm, relentlessly pounding the Golden Sand Scorpion's fragile armor plates until it snapped in two.

After its body broke apart, a large amount of golden liquid gushed out from the broken ends. The two halves of the golden sand scorpion twisted and struggled wildly, but they could not be put back together in the end, and it finally died on the spot.

Qi Xuan slumped to one side, utterly exhausted, completely unaware that the world outside had completely exploded.
"It's giving me goosebumps! It's absolutely giving me goosebumps!"

"Qi Shen is too awesome! He even won?!"

"Who was barking like that just now? Get out here right now!"

"My scorpion corpse is so big, surely Third Brother can't see it?"

"Saying that the Red Demon is the best in the world, saying that Qi Shen will be devoured, it's hilarious!"

"I don't care if you're a Red Demon or a Green Demon, you're not even worthy of carrying my shoes!"

"Hmph, you dare not argue, huh? You choose to run away, huh? I'll post giant scorpion pictures under the Twitter accounts you follow every day! A bunch of trash!"

"I'm going to pack up the recording of the giant scorpion annihilating the Red Devil and put it into Bollywood and all sorts of your favorite movies, and I guarantee you'll be thrilled every night!"

……

As the live broadcast ended, netizens shifted their focus to various international websites to continue their battle with India.

After resting briefly at the battlefield, Qi Xuan began cleaning up the various spoils of war.

The golden sand scorpion has quite a few good things about it, such as its hard carapace and sharp tail blade.

Their habitats, too, often yield various unexpected discoveries.

What Qi Xuan didn't expect was that this gain was quite unexpected.
