In the bizarre mountain forest, various strange-looking creatures are scurrying in the shadows. A young man wearing a gorgeous black robe stands on the top of the mountain, looking at the surging light black mist ahead.

Behind him, hundreds of black Gu masters were busy in an orderly manner, each one like a clockwork gear, pushing a huge machine to start gradually.

Pieces of information gathered here, and nodes covering a radius of nearly a hundred miles lit up one by one on the map.

"[Mother Gu·Night Slough] is in place and is expanding its territory."

"[Mother Gu·Li Sting] is in place and is expanding its territory."

"[Mother Gu·Resentful Roar] is in place and is expanding its territory."

……………

The young man in black robe stared far into the void. In the seemingly silent mountains and ridges, insects buzzed one after another with frequencies beyond human hearing. Penetrating sound waves oscillated back and forth in the atmosphere, as if the entire world was wrapped in an endless swarm of insects.

After an unknown amount of time, a black Gu master walked up behind him respectfully and saluted from a distance.

"Holy Lord, the formation has been set up, and we are just waiting for the insects to enter the grass basin."

The empty and unfocused pupils gradually converged. The young man in black robe turned his back to the crowd and slowly raised his hands, as if embracing the world.

Following his movements, the black Gu masters scattered in a radius of hundreds of miles stopped their movements uniformly, looked in the same direction, and then slowly knelt down while trembling.

Although they could not hear the terrifying insect roar that shook the world, the Gu insects in their bodies were vibrating in resonance, indirectly allowing them to experience the invisible and terrifying pressure.

At the core of the formation, the figure of the young man in black robe was distorted, and the gorgeous and evil black robe "melted" and fell, spreading infinitely like ripples, pouring out an endless black tide.

The tide covered the insteps of the black Gu masters, but they did not dare to move at all, because these waves were actually made up of billions of ferocious Gu insects.

As long as these crazy and restless black Gu worms are slightly stimulated, they will be chewed into bones in just a short moment!

Fortunately, the activated Gu insects surged past, spreading infinitely toward the distant mountains, and quickly integrated into this vast world.

"Zhao Yinshun...where did you get the courage to challenge me?"

"Go down here and find that overestimating insect. I will crush off his limbs with my own hands and listen to him wailing in the grass basin for seventy-seven and forty-nine days!"

A low, sharp roar that was not like a human voice came from the front. Many black Gu masters subconsciously raised their heads, and instantly fell to the ground in fear and trembling.

In that startling glance, what they saw was no longer the familiar figure, but a deformed and twisted monster writhing with ferocious claws.

Is that the true posture of the Holy Lord...

A stray thought flashed through their minds, and many black Gu masters trembled and lowered their heads.

"Yes, Holy Lord."

……………………

Buzz!!

A black Gu worm struggled under the claws of the illusory civet, and its tail hook like a poisonous scorpion stabbed wildly, but it could only create circles of ripples on the protective divine light.

"Sister, these evil poisons are getting denser and denser, and they are getting crazier and crazier."

Not far away, Li Yao observed this scene and said worriedly.

Then, she gently covered her heart and frowned in discomfort.

"And...do you feel it? The golden silkworm Gu is trembling, as if it is afraid of something..."

"Well, I feel it too. All the insects in the world are restless and don't even dare to chirp."

Wudie's face also turned a little pale, and her heart, which had just recovered from overdraft, was throbbing faintly.

"Otherwise, we should leave first and wait until the clan has organized the manpower before we come in to find out what's going on."

After hearing Li Yao's words, Wudie hesitated for a moment, and finally shook her head firmly.

"No, by the time the clan members arrive in Tuozhou, the day lilies will be cold!"

"If those black dogs are allowed to find the Gu God first, I'm afraid the entire Damin will experience a catastrophe!"

Saying that, Wu Die looked at Li Yao and gently held her little hand.

"At this point, we have no way out."

Looking at Wudie's solemn and determined eyes, Li Yao was silent for a moment and held her hand tightly.

"I understand, sister."

Feeling the determination in Li Yao's heart, a trace of guilt flashed in Wudie's eyes.

"I'm sorry that you are so young and I have to shoulder such a heavy responsibility..."

"Hahahaha, sister, you are not much older than me. Besides, as a saint, we are born to shoulder the responsibility of protecting our people!"

Li Yao pretended to laugh in a relaxed manner, and then looked at Zhu Muqiu who was silent beside her.

"Aqiu, you heard it too. It's getting more and more dangerous ahead. Why don't you get out first?"

Zhu Muchuqiu looked at the sky with an expressionless face, not much fear in his heart, and the back of Sheng Xue, dressed in white, vaguely appeared in front of his eyes.

A clear realization arose in her heart. If she gave up now, she would be left behind by Zhao Yinshun forever. The two sides would never have any intersection again, and even looking at his back from afar would become a luxury.

The gap in life levels will isolate the two people into two different species, one standing in the clouds, and the other crawling on the earth...

Zhu Muqiu's whole body trembled, and his heart was like ice, and he felt endless fear inexplicably.

She is not afraid of death. What she is afraid of is that when she reaches the end of her life, she looks into the sky and cannot see the back of Shengxue in white!

She was afraid that while she was still struggling on the earth, that person would have ascended to the sky and set foot on a dimension that she could not look up to!

Reluctance, anger, anxiety, fear...

The turbulent negative emotions condensed into a cold light in her eyes, and the sword on Zhu Muchiu's waist responded to her will, emitting a clear and sweet trembling.

No one can ignore my sword!

nobody!!

"Needless to say, I will accompany you until the end."

Seeing Zhu Muqiu's brave and determined appearance, Li Yao was moved and threw herself into her arms with a whimper.

"Uuuuuuuu, Aqiu, you are so kind. I'm sorry, I shouldn't have called you ugly before..."

Zhu Muchuu's eyes were clear and his pupils were slightly condensed. He stiffly lowered his head to look at the girl in his arms, pinched her fair and pretty face, and slowly pulled her out.

"Ouch, ouch, I'm sorry, I have to rush in..."

While they were ravaging Li Yao's little face, the three of them suddenly stopped and looked into the distance.

In that direction, a very penetrating explosion sound came from a long distance, and even across a long distance, you could feel the sound waves oscillating and causing your internal organs to tremble slightly.

Looking at each other, the three formed a battle formation in tacit understanding, with Zhu Muchiu taking the lead and rushing forward.

Tens of minutes later, after crossing a steep mountain, the piercing sound of swords, guns, and swords suddenly amplified, and a strange battlefield slowly came into view of the three of them.

Hundreds of extraordinary beings are crowding in a small mountain col. In the sky in the middle of them, an upside-down tree falls from the sky. It spreads out countless fine threads like nerves, emitting a dark divine light that flickers on and off.

.

Looking at the illusory tree shadows that moved rhythmically like breathing, the eyes of the three of them were dull for a moment.

Just by looking at it, some mysterious and detailed knowledge quietly seeped into my mind, but when I thought about it carefully, it seemed that I gained nothing.

Instinctively, a strong impulse surged in the hearts of the three of them, wanting to get close to it, touch its threads, and pry into the mysterious [truth] hidden behind the vision.

"Claywood..."

With a dull murmur coming from her mouth, Zhu Muqiu looked at the illusory tree shadow in the sky, her eyes winding upward along its roots, deep into the void, and entering a realm that she could not understand.

Soon, Li Yao and Wu Die broke free from the breathtaking vision, and glanced around, their brows gradually knitted.

"Why aren't there any black dogs!?"

On the chaotic battlefield, extraordinary beings in various strange costumes stood face to face, but there was no trace of any black Gu master.

"Sister, all the insects around have disappeared!"

"Ayao, I have an unknown premonition."

"Me too."

They both covered their hearts and felt the trembling of the golden silkworm Gu. They looked at each other and saw a hint of bitterness in each other's eyes.

In the center of the battlefield, several figures with strong auras are fighting fiercely. But if anyone stands out and wants to touch the "silk thread" hanging from the sky, he will immediately be attacked by everyone around him!

For a time, the huge battlefield fell into a strange balance. Everyone wanted to be the leader, and at the same time, everyone wanted to be the leader!

"Stop! The sycamore tree may disappear at any time. If we continue fighting like this, no one will get a chance. Why don't we discuss a charter, let everyone compete fairly, and finally come forward one by one to understand in order of strength..."

An "outstanding bird" was knocked down from the sky and roared in embarrassment.

Hearing his words, the crowd around him was a little moved, but the transcendent beings on the periphery just kept pushing in, and no one was convinced.

"Bi Dou Ni Ma, you will die!"

A bearded man nearly three meters tall wielded a long bloody sword and swept through thousands of troops with one move. He chopped the unlucky man in front of him to the point where he vomited blood and flew backwards, as if he was playing a baseball, and he was blasted dozens of meters away.

"Wa hahaha!!"

Laughing wildly as he dashed through the crowd, the bearded man rushed all the way to the center of the battlefield, where he saw a substantial beam of sword energy pointed directly between his eyebrows.
