841: Chapter 0797: Water Bear!

“Another large batch of premium insect feed…”

Having successfully annihilated all the Golden-haired Roar and its zombie horde, Lv Zhong smiled contentedly as he collected all the zombies and the corpses of the Golden-haired Roar on the scene into the various spaces of the [Great Annihilation Pearl].

With such a batch of corpses from the creatures of the Underworld, the strength of his Insect Army subordinates would increase significantly.

However, the fact that he was able to so perfectly deal with several Golden-haired Roars and the tens of thousands of zombies they summoned was greatly due to luck.

If he had not acquired the bodies of several hundred Ancient Ferocious Beasts previously, and if Lv Zhong didn’t have a Spatial Magic Item that could accelerate time, allowing his Insect Clan Army ample time to digest the massive energy from these corpses and continuously evolve, it would have been absolutely impossible for Lv Zhong’s Insect Army, no matter how numerous, to deal with the Golden-haired Roars and the vast number of Immortal Beast-level zombies, all at the Golden Immortal Realm.

“If what we had encountered this time wasn’t creatures from the Underworld but powerhouses from the Immortal World, even if we could win, I’m afraid it would be a costly victory—” Despite the unprecedented victory, Lv Zhong was still self-aware.

His Heaven-burning Great Brightness Butterfly and the massive amount of Holy Beetles by nature suppressed the undead creatures of the Underworld.

This gave Lv Zhong a significant advantage during his battle with the Golden-haired Roars and the vast horde of zombies.

And using the Heaven-burning Great Brightness Butterfly and Holy Beetles against so many Golden Immortal-level powerhouses from the Immortal World would naturally not be as effective.

The battle over, Lv Zhong had no intention of lingering in the area.

Having swiftly collected his Insect Army and the magical treasures used in battle, and under the guidance of the [Travel Route] in his mind, Lv Zhong advanced rapidly while invisible.

The closer he got to the final destination, the Primordial Dragon’s Tomb, the greater the dangers he would encounter and the more people from the Immortal and Underworld realms he would meet.

Lv Zhong had no intention of engaging these beings from the higher worlds in direct combat and thus allowing others to profit from his misfortune.

As he traveled invisibly at high speed, he also occasionally collected the corpses of the Ancient Giant Beasts that had fallen around him.

And the closer he got to the final destination, the higher the quality of the fallen Ancient Ferocious Beasts’ corpses became.

On the outskirts, there might be Heaven Immortal or Earth Immortal level Ancient Ferocious Beast corpses, but now, the corpses Lv Zhong encountered were all comparable to Golden Immortals.

There were even Profound Immortal or even Daluo Golden Immortal-level fierce beast corpses.

Though these fierce beasts had fallen for eons, they still slightly emitted an absolute terrifying ferocity and malice.

This put considerable pressure on Lv Zhong, and his spiritual world was fiercely battered by these malevolent energies.

Such a terrifying, savage presence would have overwhelmed others like Zeus and Harrogate, who might not have been able to withstand it.

“A tiger’s might persists even in death!” Observing a giant tiger corpse hundreds of feet long right in front of him, sensing its post-mortem but still immensely terrifying ferocious energy, Lv Zhong couldn’t help but sigh lightly.

This was a powerful Demon Tiger, comparable to a peak Profound Immortal in strength.

Before its fall, it surely was a tyrant that dominated a territory, with its bloodthirsty aura and berserk will swirling wildly in all directions, its might immense and feared.

If Lv Zhong’s cultivation didn’t involve the [Microcosmic Spirit Condensation Technique] from the Vast World, and if he wasn’t protected by various rare treasures like the 6th Grade Golden Lotus and the Green Lotus Flower Crown, he might have been affected by this overwhelming Sha Qi and malice.

He could have become a slaughter machine, with killing as his only drive.

Such a corpse of a powerful fierce beast would be impossible for an ordinary Independent Immortal to forcibly collect if they could not resist its residual ferocity.

They might not be able to take it away at all.

After closely examining the body of this supreme Demon Tiger, Lv Zhong suddenly realized that the strong beings from the Immortal and Underworld realms taking these corpses in advance might actually be a good thing for the Independent Immortals and Independent Demons from the lower worlds.

Otherwise, if cultivators from lower worlds like the Sector of Magical Techniques, the Cultivation World, and the Black Demon World were to arrive here first, it would undoubtedly result in many Independent Immortals and Independent Demons being unable to resist the erosion of the powerful Demon Beast’s residual malevolent energies, leading to Deviation, falling into boundless illusions, and potentially turning on each other in a frenzy of slaughter.

“Heh, it seems that the entrance of the strong from the Immortal and Underworld realms into this space has inadvertently saved many cultivators from the lower worlds.

In that case, people like Palace Master Yao Yue might well be able to hold on until they reach the Primordial Dragon’s Tomb…”

With this realization, Lv Zhong became less worried about the Palace Master Yao Yue and others following behind him.

With the [Annihilation Pearl] and other powerful Spatial Magic Items at his disposal, even if there was a trace of will remaining in the giant tiger’s corpse, it could be forcibly suppressed.

This allowed Lv Zhong to easily incorporate it into his possession.

Other Independent Immortals and Demons wouldn’t be able to incorporate a Profound Immortal-level fierce beast’s corpse with residual will into their space equipment.

Unless their space equipment was not inferior and was at least at the Mid-quality Peak level or above.

Having collected the tiger corpse, Lv Zhong remained invisible.

With the energy of the [Great Annihilation Pearl] at his disposal, Lv Zhong completely concealed his aura, making his invisibility extraordinarily effective.

Traveling rapidly, and now less than one-fifth of the distance from the Primordial Dragon’s Tomb, Lv Zhong understood that if he maintained his previous speed, he should be able to reach the final destination within a month, competing with the strong from the Immortal and Underworld realms for the most valuable resources.

But the closer he got to the destination, the more cautious Lv Zhong became because the people he would encounter next would be even more powerful.

Fortunately, now that he was acting alone, concealment was extremely convenient.

Furthermore, by quietly releasing some flying Alien Insects to scout ahead, he could spread his sensory abilities countless times over, indirectly offsetting the powerful suppression effect this space had on Immortal Sense.

Typically, the Immortal Sense of a Golden Immortal could perceive within a range of 200 kilometers in this space, and although Lv Zhong’s soul cultivation technique was extremely advanced, his own strength was relatively weak, at best only able to perceive within a range of 120 to 150 kilometers.

However, once Lv Zhong used the perspective of his subordinates from the Insect Clan to spread his sensory power, he could multiply his range of Immortal Sense spread by several times, or even more than ten times.

With this, his perception range might even be wider than that of a Profound Immortal.

This was his advantage in this space, being able to sense the movements of the enemy before them.

One step ahead is to lead every step!

Lv Zhong could make the most advantageous decision before being discovered by the enemy.

At the same time, with his sensory range expanded, Lv Zhong’s gains also increased dramatically.

Along the way, Lv Zhong constantly spread his “Immortal Sense” to the fullest, using the flying insects sent out as his “eyes” to observe everything around him.

This allowed Lv Zhong to often perceive the location of fallen ancient giant beasts in real-time and to know where there were higher levels of such beasts.

He could even avoid other powerhouses and calmly collect the bodies of ancient ferocious beasts and top-tier magical treasures.

Seven days later, Lv Zhong had collected the bodies of more than 700 giant beasts solo, even more than the number he had collected with Mu Cangqiong, and the levels of the fierce beast bodies were also higher.

Even in these seven days, Lv Zhong collected three Innate Spiritual Treasures, hundreds of Immortal Artifacts of mid-quality, high-quality, and top-quality, and nearly a thousand top-grade artifact refinement materials.

Among the three Innate Spiritual Treasures were the Qiankun Six Harmonies Umbrella, Yin Yang Dragon and Phoenix Bottle, and Heavenly Luo Aurora Ring.

Lv Zhong immediately sent these three Innate Spiritual Treasures to Ao Ye, Zheng Linglong, and Xu Xinyan upon obtaining them.

As for Yan Yan, Lv Zhong gave her a Primordial Fire Flame Pearl he had collected earlier with Mu Cangqiong.

Now, with each of the four women possessing an Innate Spiritual Treasure, Lv Zhong instructed them to initially refine them using the blood sacrifice method, then absorb them into their consciousness and nourish them with the vast power of their souls, to refine the Innate Spiritual Treasures more smoothly.

With the four women now owning Innate-level spiritual treasures, they were overjoyed and focused on their cultivation, no longer pestering Lv Zhong, which allowed him to explore the Hongmeng Dragon Tomb wholeheartedly.

…

On the tenth day, Lv Zhong appeared before a vast lake, preparing to muster his energy and fly over it when he sensed something two thousand kilometers away, causing his expression to change dramatically.

“There are several Immortals who have fallen two thousand kilometers ahead?

The creatures attacking them are… are they a group of strange insects…”

Perceiving this scene through the powerful Soul-Devouring Worms ahead, Lv Zhong’s expression became extremely grave.

Clearly, the Hongmeng Dragon Tomb wasn’t without its indigenous inhabitants.

On the contrary, although the types of indigenous creatures here were scarce, their lethality was also extremely terrifying.

“What terrifying insects.

Those Immortals, including a Golden Immortal, encountered a swarm of strange insects emerging from the lake…

and they didn’t have the slightest ability to fight back?” Lv Zhong was extremely shaken and at the same time, his eyes flared with excitement, “If I could subdue some of those Alien Insects, then the strength of my army under the Insect Clan would climb another level…”

“Pfft pfft pfft…”

Just as Lv Zhong fantasized, he shockingly discovered that the “images” in his Sea of Consciousness had suddenly diminished significantly.

Using the vision of other Soul-Devouring Worms, Lv Zhong found to his horror that several worms with the power of an Earth Immortal were also directly attacked and killed by the strange insects leaping out of the lake.

“Damn it, they attacked my Soul-Devouring Worms?” Lv Zhong’s face turned very ugly, and he was also shockingly alarmed, exclaiming, “What in the world are those insects?

They feel very weird, almost like the legendary Water Bears from Earth, yet not quite the same, because these insects are much larger than water bears, each one as big as a mantis…”

Water bears are a terrestrial creature well-known on Earth for their extreme robustness.

It’s incredibly difficult to kill a water bear, as they can halt all of their metabolic functions to withstand harsh conditions.

This has led scientists to consider them the most resilient known animals on Earth, able to withstand extreme temperatures, high radiation, and even survive for minutes to days in a vacuum or high-pressure environments.

Some speculate that water bears may not be indigenous to Earth and could potentially be extraterrestrial.

However, those who subscribe to this theory cannot provide solid evidence.

Now, the Alien Insects that Lv Zhong sensed emerging from the lake looked very much like water bears but were magnified countless times in size.

Moreover, their strength had also increased exponentially.

“So, are these creatures indeed the water bears from Earth, or a mutant variant of them?”

Lv Zhong frowned in thought, his eyes filled with curiosity and burning desire.(To be continued.
