At the end of the underground waterway, there seemed to be a vast s.p.a.ce, but the poisonous fog was even thicker. The clones did not have the corresponding exploration module. They only arrived at this s.p.a.ce and couldn’t go further.
Hence, Lin Yan simply got up and went down into the poisonous fog. He silently barged into the underground waterway again.
The underground waterway was winding and dark. It was unknown where this Netherworld River got so much water, but it was actually spread all over it. It was like a huge network of veins that connected the entire underground cave.
Lin Yan entered and followed the real-time map established by the clones. He bypa.s.sed the pa.s.sageways occupied by Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroaches one after another. Occasionally, he would encounter a few that were alone and kill them.
At the same time, he also took the Spirit Marrows that the clones had gathered yesterday. He went all the way in without any surprises or danger and arrived at the entrance to the underground world in the depths of the water channel that the clone had found.
It was already unknown how deep underground it was. The color of the rock layer changed several times. As soon as he approached the entrance, Lin Yan felt an extremely dense poisonous fog a.s.sault his face, and his blood energy kept surging.
At this concentration, unless one was wearing an anti-poison suit, even the new antidote would not be of much use.
However, the strange thing was that the color of the surrounding air was not as green as it was outside. Instead, it was much more transparent. It was as if as the concentration of the poison increased and the poison gathered, the color faded.
Lin Yan slowed down. This was a deep underground cave. In the cave, the Netherworld River emitted a faint blue halo, illuminating the surrounding rough rock walls. At the end of the pa.s.sageway, there was a bright yellow halo, as if it wasn’t deep underground, but a bright surface world.
Lin Yan carefully walked forward step by step. The closer he got to the end of the cave, the more Lin Yan held his breath.
He had a feeling that the scene he was about to see would be extremely shocking and even unbelievable.
After walking for dozens of steps, he finally arrived at the end of the narrow pa.s.sageway. The light outside was so bright that it was almost blinding. It was simply unbelievable for such light to appear in the underground world.
Lin Yan hesitated for a moment before walking out of the end of the pa.s.sageway. The moment his vision suddenly widened, his breathing completely froze!
In front of him was an extremely vast and bright plain!
As far as the eye could see, the ground was filled with a kind of bare grayish-black rock. However, there was actually a kind of green-blue tree with towering leaves that were 40 to 50 meters tall growing on it. Moreover, the further they went, the denser it seemed to be, forming a dense forest that blocked the scenery further away.
Other than this plant, there was nothing else in the entire rock layer. It was bare.
Looking up, the sky of the plain was high above, but it was not the real sky. It was a rock formation!
However, this rock formation was made of a material similar to yellow jade. It was covered in silk-like patterns, as if liquid was flowing inside.
The strangest thing was that the entire yellow jade sky was actually glowing!
The sky was the light source of this world. A bright and clear halo projected down from the rock layer above, illuminating the entire underground plain.
At this moment, he was standing at the foot of a black stone mountain. The entrance of the pa.s.sageway he had just walked out was at the foot of the mountain. At the entrance of a mountain, the Netherworld River flowed out of the cave. It ran excitedly on the plain in front and flowed into the greenish-blue forest in the distance.
Lin Yan’s breathing quickened slightly. Was such a huge underground world created by nature or humans?
It was as if an entire rock layer had been hollowed out!
Lin Yan’s vision was blocked by the forest of plants. He turned around and looked at the stone mountain behind him. It continued to extend upwards. Although it was not high, the top was actually connected to the yellow jade rock layer in the sky. It could be said to be a towering stone mountain.
Lin Yan carefully climbed up the stone mountain for two to three hundred meters. When he reached the middle of the stone mountain, he turned around and continued to observe. He was even more shocked.
At this height, he could see even more clearly that in the middle of the distant underground plain, there was actually an unbelievably huge lake!
According to the ratio, it was definitely not smaller than the West Lake he had seen in his previous life!
The lake was like a jade mirror. It was calm and flat on the ground, surrounded by a lush greenish-blue forest.
Its color was yellow, reflecting the light of the rock formation in the sky, like a huge piece of amber.
There seemed to be some specks of light on it, but they were too far away to be seen clearly.
Suddenly, Lin Yan’s gaze was attracted by the commotion in a greenish-blue forest to the left of Amber.
There was a large forest trembling there, and it was constantly approaching Mirror Lake. It was as if some creature was moving through it, causing the greenish-blue trees to sway. Even at his distance, he could vaguely hear the rustling sound.
However, each of these huge trees was forty to fifty meters tall. What could make such a huge tree make such an intense commotion?
Suddenly, the movements in the huge tree stopped. The entire huge tree forest suddenly fell silent.
Lin Yan was about to take a closer look.
Suddenly!
In the huge forest, a head that was unbelievably huge suddenly raised!
It was an extremely ferocious and terrifying huge insect head. It was the size of a house and was raised higher than the huge tree.
It was pitch-black and had huge buns on its head. Each bun was more than half a meter tall.
The inverted trapezoid head was covered in pitch-black barbs. Every barb was nearly three meters long!
The huge mouthpiece was like a mill, filled with sharp sabers.
It slowly turned its head. There were a total of 32 pairs of scarlet compound eyes the size of a human head on the forehead of the insect head. At this moment, they were all staring in one direction, which was where Lin Yan was!
Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroach!
The Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroach that was dozens of times larger and forty to fifty meters tall!
Lin Yan’s heart seemed to be about to jump out of his chest. His throat seemed to be grabbed by an invisible and terrifying force, and he couldn’t make a sound.
Those 32 terrifying compound eyes revealed wild cruelty and coldness, making him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
After instantly reacting, the Azure Dragon phantom around Lin Yan suddenly spread out. Wind and lightning roared as he jumped down from the mountainside and rushed crazily towards the entrance!
BANG!
Almost in the next moment, a pitch-black sarcoma ball smashed into the spot where Lin Yan was standing just now, causing a huge pit to appear on the stone mountain.
Lin Yan didn’t even look back. With the speed of the Azure Dragon Riding Wind and Thunder, he crawled into the pa.s.sageway. Before he entered, he saw that the greenish-blue forest was like a hornet’s nest that had been poked open. Countless Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroaches crawled out!
As for the Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroaches, each of them was twenty to thirty feet tall. They were pitch-black with a metallic l.u.s.ter and were filled with ferocious barbs. All of them emitted a cold and ferocious aura!
Compared to them, the Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroaches outside were as cute and harmless as babies!
After escaping into the pa.s.sageway, Lin Yan immediately canceled the Azure Dragon Riding Wind and Thunder and ran out along the winding waterway.
However, after running for a while, Lin Yan slowed down slightly.
According to the information sent by the clones, the incomparably powerful Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroaches did not catch up.
Looking at the surrounding pa.s.sageways, it made sense. The dimensions of this pa.s.sageway could not accommodate those large Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroaches at all.
Although they didn’t chase after him, Lin Yan didn’t want to stay in the underground waterway any longer. He had a vague premonition that the Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroaches would make a big move next.
He quickly left the waterway and only heaved a long sigh of relief when he returned to the camp.
“Although the underground world doesn’t have the color of the poisonous fog, the density of the poison is even greater.
“It’s obvious that the poisonous fog is actually emitted from the mysterious plain underground.
“The cause of the earthquake, Xiaozhi’s secret. Maybe we can find the answer in it…”
However, the huge Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroach was 40 to 50 meters tall. With its size, just a slight movement had the power to destroy the world. With Lin Yan’s strength, it was impossible to explore it.
“It’s time to seek help…”
