Chapter 1165
1165 Tracking (1)
The water that fell from the sky crashed into the deep pool, but it was unable to create waves like before.
This was because the entire pool was filled with floating corpses. They were all stacked together, and it was unknown how many of them there were.
Looking at the position of the water outlet of the deep pool, the number of corpses spread out, completely blocking the river, and continued to the end of the line of sight!
The river water had long turned blood red and appeared extremely viscous. If one observed carefully, they would discover that there seemed to be countless insects swimming in the blood water, occasionally crawling in and out of the corpses.
The missing residents of Spirit Rock City had finally been found. They were not devoured by the king beetle as Tang Zhen had predicted. However, looking at the situation, their situation might not be any better than being devoured.
The Zerg King seemed to be using their corpses as a breeding ground, devouring them as it grew. When it grew to a certain extent, the terrifying number of zergs might go downstream and head to a new hunting spot.
Although the cultivators of Lou city were determined and used to seeing life and death, this b.l.o.o.d.y scene that was almost like a ma.s.sacre still moved them.
All the cultivators felt a sense of fear and unconcealable killing intent toward the terrifying insect race.
Strictly speaking, these insects could also be considered as invaders of the world of loucheng. They withstood the invasion of the world’s laws and began to stir up trouble in this land.
In the process of invading other worlds, the world of loucheng was also being invaded by other worlds and species. However, under the projection of the nomological laws of the world of loucheng, most of the invaders could not escape the disaster. They would turn into monsters in a very short time after entering the world of loucheng!
Any invader who was unaffected or slightly affected either had a strong and strange strength or had special defensive means, but the probability of such a situation happening was quite small.
The Zergs were not affected, perhaps because of their special body structure. The teroboros that invaded the wilderness on a large scale either controlled the cornerstone platform and blocked this protective power, or they had already created a device to resist this power.
No matter what, whenever such a situation occurred, it meant that a disaster was about to happen!
Tang Zhen’s gaze swept across the corpse floating in the river. He was only silent for a few seconds before he flew to the sky above the river by himself.
A burning aura that seemed to burn one’s soul appeared and filled the entire River. Countless fire snakes with long tails of flames danced around wantonly and burrowed into the river that was blocked by corpses.
The moment these fire snakes burrowed into the river, terrifying flames soared into the sky. Even the river water couldn’t stop the burning of these flames. In the process of burning, the river water even became a fuel for the fire, making the fire more intense!
Billowing black smoke rose into the sky, and the corpses soaked in the river instantly turned to ashes, then were carried far away by the surging water.
As for the larvae and eggs in the corpses, they had long been reduced to ashes with the flames and could no longer cause any harm to anyone.
Not far away, the cultivators looked at the river that was like a huge fire Dragon. There was only fire flashing in their eyes. They knew that if they were in his position, they would definitely not allow this insect to survive!
Because the existence of this kind of invader might cause harm to the entire world of loucheng, whether it was for self-protection or for the greater good, it was an unshirkable duty to destroy these insects.
Amidst the flames that filled the sky, Tang Zhen slowly turned around and looked at the silent cultivators.
starting from here, don’t miss an inch of the area. We must capture the spirit Rock City Lord!
All the cultivators nodded at the same time and flew in different directions. They spread out their spirit energy to search for any suspicious traces.
Tang Zhen also joined in the search and continued to move forward along the river. The polarized filter x-ray vision he had downloaded once again played its role, allowing him to easily see the situation underwater.
As long as city Lord Ling Yan was hiding under the water, he would definitely not be able to escape Tang Zhen’s search.
Not long after, Tang Zhen saw a huge drag mark on the mud at the bottom of the river. It disappeared again when it reached the deep water.
If this was not the work of the water monster, then it was very likely to be left behind by the Lord of Ling Yan city. This was because Tang Zhen knew very well that once the king beetle started to lay eggs, it was impossible for the Lord of Ling Yan city to maintain his normal form.
One must know that after the previous city Lord of the s.p.a.ce TOWER was parasitized, he had turned into a giant tumor with a diameter of several hundred meters. Moreover, Tang Zhen had seen and killed him with his own eyes!
Therefore, Tang Zhen had reason to believe that these were the traces left behind by the Lord of Ling Yan city.
Tang Zhen’s spirit was lifted when he finally found the traces of the spirit Rock City Lord. He immediately turned into a stream of light and flew downstream.
The chase went on for hundreds of kilometers until a huge body of water appeared in front of them. The Lord of Spirit Rock City had disappeared again!
Tang Zhen looked at the incomparably vast water surface and couldn’t help but feel a slight headache. One must know that searching for the spirit Rock City Lord under such circ.u.mstances was no different from looking for a needle in a haystack.
However, after witnessing the terror of the Zergs, Tang Zhen did not want to give up so easily. This was because he had already determined in his heart that these zergs would definitely cause unimaginable losses to the torobo people!
If used properly, Tang Zhen would not even need to make a move to make the torobo people pay the price they deserved.
The Lord of Ling Yan city, who had been possessed by the king beetle, had become a key factor in Tang Zhen’s plan. As long as he could capture him and study how to tame him, Tang Zhen would be able to teleport him to the world where the torobo people were when the time was right.
As for whether this plan would succeed and how much of an impact it would have on the teroboros people, he would have to wait until the incident happened to be certain!
After confirming that he couldn’t find city Lord Ling Yan in a short time, Tang Zhen immediately contacted thousand Dragons, Blood River King, and the others. He asked them to rush to his location and join the search.
At the same time, he mobilized a large number of Holy Dragon City cultivators to seal off the surrounding area of the water to prevent the spirit Rock City Lord from running to other places.
While waiting, Tang Zhen continued to fly along the surface of the water, carefully checking for any possible hiding spot at the bottom of the river.
Through the map’s perspective, one could confirm that the area of this water body was extremely large. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that it was an inland sea. At the very least, Tang Zhen could still see the surface of the water at the edge of the map’s perspective.
During this time, he also saw some foreign races. On the vast water surface, these foreign races drove ships made of wood and caught fish and shrimp in the water with simple methods.
After seeing Tang Zhen’s figure, those foreign tribe members all stopped what they were doing. They stood on the ship and continuously sized him up.
In the past few days, there were very few Lord-ranked cultivators that appeared here. Moreover, looking at Tang Zhen’s appearance, he was obviously searching for something!
Could there be some kind of treasure hidden under the water? otherwise, why would a Lord cultivator appear and search so carefully?
Especially as time pa.s.sed and a large number of Holy Dragon City cultivators appeared one after another, the foreign tribes were even more certain of this. The news that there were treasures hidden in these waters also spread rapidly!
