Chapter 311: Severely Injured
In the deepest part of the cave is a wide circular empty cave.
A huge worm with a pure white body was lying in the center of the entire empty cave. Its huge body even occupied more than half of such an empty place. The big bug’s head had a pair of hard teeth and six dark eyes. However, its head was completely negligible compared to its fat body.
Monkey rushed over to one of the entrances of the empty cave.
“Mother, bad news. A human has barged in!” The monkey said while panting. “I sensed the aura of a human just now. Although he has very powerful concealment methods, I still captured some of it.”
It was unknown where the sound came from the worm.
“How did they get in?”
Monkey knelt at the entrance of the cave and replied very honestly, “I’m not sure now, Mother. However, these humans seem to have mastered very powerful strength. If we don’t hurry up and attack, I’m afraid we’ll be dragged down by these humans again. The situation will become disadvantageous to us.”
The big worm was silent for a moment before saying to Monkey, “I’ll send Spirit Child out. You and Gray Mountain find this human immediately.”
Monkey immediately said anxiously, “Mother, although Spirit Child is strong enough, he has flaws in his treatment of the human race. If we send him out, it will give that human time to breathe. In my opinion, we must not be soft-hearted when dealing with these humans.”
“Red Wave, you’re questioning my decision.”
“I don’t dare to question your decision. However, the fact that the human race was able to barge into this place without being discovered is enough to prove that the human race has already grasped a certain level of strength. In this case, if we can’t make a move first, we will probably be at a disadvantage.”
Monkey had been reporting here for a long time before the big stupid bear. He knelt behind Monkey very reluctantly.
“Mother.”
“Do the two of you know exactly where that human is?” The big worm asked the big stupid bear again.
The big stupid bear gritted its teeth and replied, “Red Wave said that he sensed it, but my senses are a little slower, so I didn’t find any traces of the humans. I think we should send someone to search first. Perhaps a human has really sneaked in.”
“I order the two of you to capture the humans at lightning speed. Can you do it?”
This time, the big worm did not give the two of them any room for discussion. Although Monkey was unwilling, he could only grit his teeth and accept it.
“Yes, Mother!”
As the two of them spoke, they left with their own thoughts.
Along the way, the monkey was silent. It clenched its fists tightly and trembled from time to time. It could be seen that it was still very angry.
What the two of them did not know was that just as they left the cave, another uninvited guest appeared.
Li Yuanqing looked at the huge worm in front of him and was extremely shocked.
This big worm’s strength was at the peak of the Formation Arrangement Realm. More importantly, this fellow’s combat strength was not its forte. It kept giving birth to eggs from its body and finally hatched on the walls of these aisles.
This thing constantly absorbed energy to nurture demon beasts. Then, it placed them in the s.p.a.ce outside to grow. The entire process gave birth to thousands of demon beast armies, and they were all so powerful.
Li Yuanqing had already put the two little fellows in his domain. This place was too dangerous. The two little fellows could not stay here any longer.
While Li Yuanqing was observing, a trace of aura suddenly leaked out from his body. The big worm suddenly woke up and immediately looked in Li Yuanqing’s direction.
Li Yuanqing had already retreated quickly, but he still felt dizzy. Fortunately, his body defense mechanism was very sensitive. The moment he sensed danger, he immediately opened the mystic realm and teleported himself into the domain s.p.a.ce.
The two little fellows had been waiting here for a long time. Li Yuanqing suddenly jumped in and fell straight in front of the two of them.
“Master, Master, what’s wrong?”
“Master, are you alright?”
The two of them kept shaking Li Yuanqing’s body, but this level of shaking was useless.
They had never seen Li Yuanqing in such a sorry state. In their impression, Li Yuanqing had always been calm and could do anything with ease. There would definitely be no accidents. But today, they had actually met such a powerful person who could beat his master into such a state.
In the cave, the big worm suddenly raised its head and let out a low cry. This low cry was not loud, but it was so clear and firmly spread to every corner of the maze.
All the demon beasts that could move stopped and quietly accepted the mission issued by their mother.
Big Bear looked at the monkey in surprise. He had thought that the monkey was being unreasonable just now. He thought that the monkey was just trying to fight for a chance to get out, so he deliberately found such an excuse.
However, he did not expect a human to really come in from outside. Moreover, that human could actually escape from his mother.
This shouldn’t have happened at all.
According to their understanding of the Catacombs world, this was clearly a suppressed small world. The cultivation of these humans here was very low.
Those who could reach the Spirit Transformation realm were already extraordinary among humans, let alone the Formation Arrangement realm or the peak of the Formation Arrangement realm. This was a realm that they did not even dare to think about.
How was that possible?
However, Monkey’s expression was also very heavy. Clearly, his mother’s order was beyond his expectations.
“Red Wave, I’m sorry. I wronged you just now. I just didn’t expect what you said to be true.” Big Bear looked at Monkey sincerely and apologized.
However, Monkey was still frowning. He said in a low voice, “Cut the c.r.a.p. This human’s strength is beyond our imagination. You have to be more agile later. Don’t let anything go wrong. If anything happens to you, I’ll be alone. Spirit Child will eat me up.”
The big stupid bear chuckled and said, “Red Wave, I knew you wouldn’t be able to let me go even though you always talk about me.”
“Cut the c.r.a.p. You look like a human. It’s very mushy.”
As soon as Monkey finished speaking, his slender thigh suddenly jumped, and his red figure turned into a red lightning and disappeared into the aisle.
In the entire cave maze, the demon beasts were busy searching for them. They wantonly released the power in their bodies, wanting to count on randomness to force these humans out. However, no matter how hard they tried, they could not find this human.
It was as if that fellow had flown out of here. However, the truth was that they had already sealed the exit. Logically speaking, they shouldn’t have been able to escape. They had already tried their best, but they still couldn’t catch those two people. Where did they go? Where did they hide?
In the deepest part of the cave, a total of eight groups of people had gathered at the eight entrances. Some of them had two, some had three, and some only had one person.
“We’ve already turned the cave upside down, but we didn’t find any traces of humans. But, we did find some traces of human aura.”
A fat wild boar carried a black stone with its two hooves.
The worm gently turned its head and looked over. The black stone trembled slightly as if it had been stroked by something.
The big worm nodded gently and said, “That’s right. It’s this person, but there seems to be more than one.”
“But we’ve already searched so much, but we still can’t find any traces of them. Where are they hiding? How did these humans enter? This is too strange.”
The big worm pondered for a moment and looked at the place where Li Yuanqing had disappeared.
“There’s the aura of the devils.”
“You mean there are devils here to cause trouble?”
“No, the smell of humans on his body is very pure. He should be a human. But why does he have the aura of the devil? It seems to be a Dharma artifact refined from a treasure of the devils.”
“Then what do you mean, Mother?”
“He’s only hiding now. He’s hiding somewhere in this s.p.a.ce. Buck up. If he shows his head, we’ll find him.”
“Yessir!”
Just as everyone was about to retreat, the big worm suddenly said, “Spirit Child, stay.”
Monkey was about to leave when he suddenly could not hold it in anymore. He stood on the side and looked in the direction of a cave, gritting his teeth.
There was a fellow who looked like a human there. This person’s face was pale and his figure was slender. From time to time, he would reveal a ghost-like smile. He was simply no different from a human.
Compared to the ugly appearance of the other demons, this fellow’s appearance was much better. Moreover, it was very abrupt. It was really strange for such a person to suddenly appear among the many demon mighty figures.
The smile on Spirit Child’s face never seemed to disappear. He bowed slightly to the big worm and looked disdainfully at the monkey and the big bear.
“Now that the attack outside has been hindered, I want to send you out to lead the various troops so that our demon army can break through the human cities as soon as possible and find a place for us to stay.”
Spirit Child was only at the seventh-grade Formation Arrangement Realm, but he was abnormally valued.
“Thank you for your reward, Mother. I will personally lead my troops to break through as soon as possible. I will welcome you to enter Sea City.”
Monkey listened to the commotion behind him as he walked, feeling more or less upset.
How was this guy stronger? It was none other than his eloquence. In terms of strategy, he was not inferior to him at all. Moreover, he had such a big stupid bear as his helper. With the two of them relying on each other, he could kill this Spirit Child.
However, his mother trusted this fellow so much. It was because this fellow had completely transformed and looked like a human boy toy.
“He only knows how to talk. How disgusting!”
The big stupid bear hurriedly blocked behind the monkey, wanting to block the sound.
“You can’t say too much. If you’re heard, we’ll be finished.”
“Since we can’t find this human, the two of us can go out ourselves and take down Sea City early with our strength. At that time, Mother won’t be able to say anything.”
The big stupid bear did not expect him to be so rebellious. Wouldn’t he be going against his mother’s decree if he sneaked away now?
“How can we do that? Mother asked us to find that human. If we leave our post now, we will definitely be punished when we return. Wouldn’t our cultivation of hundreds of years be…”
Monkey looked at him coldly and said, “You just have to say if you want to follow me or not. If the two of us take down Sea City, not to mention Ping City and Rong City, it will be in our hands.”
“But this is really too dangerous. What if something goes wrong?”
“What are you afraid of? Do you want to keep looking for a human that you can’t catch?”
“But didn’t you say that a human had sneaked in? There is a human here to begin with. We will definitely be able to find him. Isn’t it a great merit to capture this human? You can sense the existence of that human. This is a huge advantage for us. We can find him earlier than others.”
Monkey bared his teeth and glared at him. “Stop dreaming. I didn’t feel any humans here at all. I just wanted to find an excuse. I wanted to go out, but Mother didn’t listen to me. No matter what, she wanted Spirit Child to go out. Now, I can’t let him steal the limelight!”
“What about Mother? What if she’s attacked?”
“Don’t worry. That person was immediately injured after coming into contact with Mother. I’m afraid he’s escaped to some place to recuperate. In addition, we can’t find him. It’s a good time to go out and take down those ant-like humans. When he comes back, he might even be surrounded. Wouldn’t this be fine?”
The big stupid bear was very hesitant, but after being told by his good brother, it felt like that was the case.
He looked at the monkey in a dilemma and said, “Can we really do this? If Mother finds out, we’ll be sentenced to death.”
“Think about it. If I go out by myself, won’t you be in trouble? You should follow me obediently. Now is not the time to think too much.”
The big stupid bear hesitated for a long time. In the end, it had no choice but to grit its teeth and stomp its feet before rushing towards the exit.
