Xiaoman carefully poked her head out of the hidden underground cave.

Under the bright moonlight, she saw that the countless buildings in the center of Green Mountain Town were all wrapped up in layers of white, black, blue, and purple.

It looked like a huge coc.o.o.n.

Something seemed to be breathing rhythmically inside.

This was the third day Xiaoman had entered Green Mountain Town.

At first, she only dared to wander around the periphery. After killing a shura, she immediately escaped.

But slowly, she became more and more daring.

Slowly, she began to go deeper into the core of this ruined city.

Soon, she realized something was wrong.

This town, which had been abandoned for more than a hundred years, was once the most prosperous market in Green Mountain County.

There were only a few low-level asuras wandering in the ruins.

Even if it was amazing, it was just a stupid ghost demon.

Until she found this place.

This was where Qingshan Town's market used to be.

The old man and Xiaoman had told her about the prosperity and bustle of the market in Qingshan town back then.

There were hundreds of taverns and hundreds of shops. Pedestrians came and went like clouds, and sweat poured down like rain.

Almost everything could be bought here.

Oil, salt, cloth, needle and thread…

Even pills, cultivation techniques, spiritual artifacts..

Unfortunately, the sky fell!

The Immortals and G.o.ds of the 33rd Heaven fell like raindrops.

Countless asuras and sky devils swarmed in through the gap in the sky.

Everything was over.

The prosperous capital city, the powerful sects.

All of them were ruined!

The humans and demons had no choice but to abandon all the cultivation methods they had in the past.

Only sword cultivators could still exist.

Even so, they had no choice but to hide. They even learned from rats and built a crisscrossed underground city.

They sent out sentry after sentry, using the flesh and blood of young people to stall for time.

Thinking of this, Xiaoman slowly returned to the cellar.

She sat on the ground with her legs crossed.

She had found this cellar in an abandoned inn yesterday.

It was very large, covering almost half of the underground area of Qingshan Town.

Perhaps, this place was once a refuge for the human race.

However, the city had long been emptied, leaving no traces behind.

It was also thanks to this underground network that Xiao Man was able to get close to this place.

She could even secretly observe the 'Coc.o.o.n' that covered and enveloped the entire bazaar.

She recalled what she had seen with her eyes just now.

Dozens of ghost demons were lying on the empty s.p.a.ce outside the coc.o.o.n.

Hundreds of different types of asura monsters were densely surrounding the large coc.o.o.n.

This was only what she could see.

There might be ten times as many asura monsters in places she couldn't see.

This made Xiaoman very uneasy.

She already knew that the nature of Asura was a group of monsters controlled by desires and twisted.

Even if these things had intelligence, their minds would only be filled with killing and madness.

Therefore, they couldn't just quietly and obediently surround the coc.o.o.n.

'There's only one possibility…' Xiaoman thought, 'The thing inside the coc.o.o.n is extremely important to these Asuras!'

But…

What could it be?

Xiaoman didn't know, but she was panicking.

Subconsciously, she felt that if the thing inside the coc.o.o.n hatched…

Then…

She was about to face a great disaster!

Bang!

At this moment, a huge tremor came from the ground and quickly became continuous.

It seemed that something was attacking the market.

And the shura were fighting!

Xiaoman carefully approached the exit of the underground cave and slowly poked her head out.

And so, she saw a scene that she couldn't believe!

A few black figures were stepping on the air and coming over.

In their hands were magical artifacts.

They were screaming.

There were even people shouting loudly, “Slaves! How dare you stop the Great Saint Clan?!”

“Go and die!”

Thus, his long sleeves rolled up countless debris and smashed towards the asuras who were frantically trying to stop him.

One asura after another was sent flying.

Some demon ghosts were even smashed into pieces by a magical artifact.

Countless ruins collapsed one by one.

However, the asuras risked their lives to stop them at all costs.

“That is!” Xiaoman took a deep breath. “Sky devils!”

Without a doubt, these attackers were all sky devils!

Moreover, they were the sky devils that occupied the bodies of those powerful great cultivators.

Only these things dared to swagger in the air after the sky fell!

But the problem was…

Xiaoman remembered that the elders had once said that the sky devils had the ability to command and even control asuras.

There was once a great sky devil who controlled and commanded hundreds of thousands of asuras to besiege a large human sect.

In the end, they relied on the flesh and blood of the Asuras to destroy that extremely powerful sect.

Even the sect leader's flesh and soul were divided by the sky devils.

What was going on?

Were the sky devils and the asuras fighting amongst themselves?

This was something that had never happened before!

Just as Xiaoman was thinking, the sky devils had already swiftly cleared out the asuras that were blocking them.

The entire ruins had been smashed by them.

The ground was littered with the shattered corpses of the Asuras.

The sky fiends had already landed on the ground one by one.

They slowly approached the 'coc.o.o.n'.

Xiaoman watched and held her breath. Her soul was completely restrained, and her eyes did not dare to relax even a little.

She was not worried that she would be discovered!

Although the sky devils' divine sense was extremely powerful, there was a flaw, and it was difficult for them to peek under the soil.

An inch of thin soil was enough to isolate the divine sense of these powerful monsters.

From then on, no one knew why?

But now, Xiaoman knew the reason.

The earth was wrapped around a divine mountain!

This divine mountain was brought by Zhulong before the creation of the world.

It was the Divine Mountain where Zhulong came from.

It was wrapped by the earth and slowly recovered its vitality.

Today, after countless years, the divine mountain was slowly recovering.

Its strength spread out from the depths of the Earth's core and naturally formed a protective membrane.

The reason why humans and demons weren't obstructed by this protective membrane was because the living beings in the world were actually all children of the Divine Mountain.

But…

The sky devils and asuras were different.

They were intruders.

Naturally, they were isolated by the Divine Mountain's strength.

That was why Xiaoman dared to unscrupulously poke her head out of the catacombs to observe.

As long as she kept her spiritual sense well, even the heavenly demons at the immortal level would not be able to find her.

Under Xiaoman's gaze, the sky devils slowly approached the coc.o.o.n.

Then, they surrounded the coc.o.o.n and began to touch the coc.o.o.n silk.

However, as soon as their hands touched the coc.o.o.n silk, something seemed to stick to it.

After that, a pair of slender white arms suddenly stretched out of the coc.o.o.n.

As soon as this arm stretched out of the coc.o.o.n silk, it suddenly turned into a huge, ferocious mouth that looked like a flower petal.

Crack!

The huge mouth aimed at a sky demon and covered its head.

Strength burst out from the body of the sky devil.

Magical artifacts were brought out from the body of the sky devil.

But it was useless!

That big mouth ignored everything.

With a crack, it bit the heavenly demon and its magic artifact.

“Crack… Crack… Crack…”

The sound of bones breaking.

“Gurgle… gurgle..”

The stinky blood inside the heavenly demon's body kept flowing out from the big mouth.

The big mouth swallowed it.

The heavenly demon's flesh and bones, along with its soul and magic artifact, were all swallowed.

Then, the big mouth opened again.

Countless jagged objects on the edge of the petal-like mouth were blue under the moonlight.

It was a lethal poison!

Crack!

Crack!

The Big Mouth swallowed one after another…

All the heavenly demons were swallowed.

Then, it turned into a long, white arm of a beauty, and slowly withdrew into the coc.o.o.n.

At the same time, an extremely powerful spiritual awareness came out of the coc.o.o.n.

Like a hurricane, it swept across the entire green mountain town.

The original houses of Green Mountain Town collapsed one by one in front of this spiritual awareness.

Xiaoman staggered and hurriedly fell back into the underground cave from the mouth of the underground cave.

However, that spiritual awareness was still reverberating in her mind.

It was an extremely twisted and evil spiritual awareness.

Just sensing it made Xiao Man's heart skip a beat.

Xiaoman panted heavily.

“What on earth is that thing?”

She was sure that it wasn't a sky devil or asura.

It was a monster that she had never seen before!

It seemed to be in a certain state.

'Coc.o.o.n…'

'Coc.o.o.n into b.u.t.terfly…'

Xiaoman thought.

“If that's the case, the thing inside the coc.o.o.n is probably an extremely terrifying and terrifying thing!”

“Something that even sky devils are afraid of!”

Clearly, those sky devils were here to eradicate it.

Or rather…

The sky devils were deliberately attracted by it.

The development of this monster required the spirit of the sky devils!

Thinking of this, Xiaoman mustered up her courage and crawled towards the exit of the catacombs again. She slowly stuck her head out.

She saw the asuras crawling up from the ground one after another.

They slowly moved towards the 'coc.o.o.n' again.

They guarded it like loyal guards.

“What exactly is in there?” Xiaoman did not know.

But she knew that that thing was definitely not something she could deal with.

Even now, it was still inside the coc.o.o.n!

She couldn't stay here any longer!

As Xiaoman thought about it, she slowly bent her body and carefully walked into the distance through the narrow underground pa.s.sage.

When she was halfway there.

Her heart moved.

“Maybe… I can go inside the coc.o.o.n and take a look…”

The underground pa.s.sage here didn't lead to the inside of the coc.o.o.n.

However…

Xiaoman remembered that the underground shelters of the human race usually had multiple floors.

This was designed using the characteristics of the underground that asura and sky devils couldn't see.

And the interface and design between each floor were different.

This depended on the concept of the different designers.

Moreover, because the sky devils would steal the soul memories of the human race and the demon race.

Therefore, the design of most shelters would be constantly updated.

In the beginning, the underground pa.s.sage of the shelters was a trap.

Later on, it became a magic array, and now, it was a mixture of magic arrays and traps.

Sometimes, the magic array was the key to the trap, and sometimes, the trap was the door to the magic array.

Legend had it that some truly outstanding shelter designers would even use the branches of heaven and earth and the secret door to create a secret key.

The pa.s.sages and entrances on every floor were constantly changing their positions.

However, that was the current design.

Moreover, it was a design that only large-scale shelters with the protection of nascent soul stage cultivators could have.

For such abandoned shelters, the design of the entrances and pa.s.sages should not be too complicated.

After all, this place was no longer a shelter.

Those precious arrays and mechanisms should have been dismantled.

Thus, Xiaoman immediately turned back.

She returned to the underground cave and started to search inside.

But after searching every corner, there was no entrance.

So…

'Is this a pa.s.sword-based entrance?' Xiaoman thought.

If that was the case, then it would be difficult for her to find the entrance in a short period of time.

But…

Xiaoman looked at the underground cave. She knew that it couldn't be a pa.s.sword-based entrance.

This was because a pa.s.sword-based entrance required an extremely complex array formation to coordinate with, and it also required precious spirit stones as its energy source.

Moreover…

This place had been abandoned for a long time.

It had been so long that there were no traces of human existence in the pa.s.sages and corridors here.

Therefore, Xiaoman stood on her tiptoes and reached out to rub the wall.

Finally, she touched something that seemed to be a word.

“As expected!” Xiaoman smiled and slowly twisted the word.

“Crack… Crack… Crack..”

A faint sound came from a corner of the underground cave.

Xiaoman walked over and saw an entrance that was about a foot wide.

Carefully, she reached out to touch it and found a rotten rope.

She knew that she had found it and quickly jumped down from there.

Plop!

She landed steadily on the ground.

The ground was very soft. It should be soil.

Xiaoman opened her eyes and looked at her pitch-black surroundings.

Her swordsmans.h.i.+p enabled her to see every detail of this place clearly.

This was a very old design of a fallout shelter.

The surrounding walls were mostly separated by wooden planks.

A forest of lamps lined up on both sides of the wall.

However, she did not need to light the lamps. She looked in the direction and walked in the direction of the coc.o.o.n.

Soon, she followed the corridor to the living area of the underground fallout shelter.

There were a lot of scattered living equipment here.

On both sides of the walls, there were caves that were artificially dug out.

Most of the shelters were dug out.

Xiaoman did not care about this. Instead, she continued forward, pa.s.sed through the living area, and walked into another corridor.

When she reached the end, a wooden staircase appeared in front of her.

Climbing the stairs, she touched a hard stone slab.

She gently pressed on a mechanism next to her.

The stone slab on top started to move slowly, and countless amounts of dust fell down.

There was still a catacombs on top.

“This is the design of the fallout shelter from seventy to eighty years ago…” Xiaoman thought about what she saw.

Now, even the simplest temporary fallout shelter was much more complicated than this kind of fallout shelter.

As long as the sky demon could not find the entrance, then the people would be safe.

At the very least, they could take the opportunity to escape through other exits.

And once a shelter like this was discovered, there was almost no way to escape!

However…

Xiaoman was just about to climb out.

She immediately stopped.

That was because she sensed that the silk was also like spider silk.

That monster…

Spat its silk into this cave?

It knew about this cave?

Was this silk used as a warning?

When Xiaoman thought of this, she immediately flew back.

But…

It was too late!

The silk seemed to have sensed her existence.

It immediately rolled towards her through the cave entrance.

Xiaoman had no choice but to pull out her short sword and ignite her soul fire.

Then, she slashed toward the entrance of the cave.

The soul fire slashed toward the threads that were rolling toward Xiao Man.

These threads were not afraid at all and directly met the soul fire.

Bang!

When the soul fire met the threads, it immediately let out a m.u.f.fled sound.

Then, it burned.

Ah!

A shrill scream screamed in her eardrums, causing Xiaoman's head to hurt.

The threads that came into contact with the soul fire immediately broke and fell to the ground.

The soul fire immediately shot back towards Xiaoman.

The remaining threads crawled back to the entrance of the cave like snakes.

Obviously, they were afraid of the Soul Fire!

The returning soul fire drilled into Xiao Man's eyes.

They seemed to be a little weak!

This was the first time Xiaoman realized that the soul fire would be weak.

Obviously, the burning of the threads had consumed their energy.

This made Xiaoman extremely alarmed. She knew that it was not appropriate to stay here for long, so she immediately turned around and left.

Reality also proved her judgment.

On the ground, Asuras stood up one by one.

They felt something.

Immediately, they rushed to the entire town and began to search through the ruins.

The intruders were underground.

They had to find the entrance!

It was already night time.

Ling Pingan had just had dinner and was watching a short video on his phone.

It was a clip from a doc.u.mentary.

It was about an insect called a parasitic wasp.

Ling Pingan was amazed.

“There are really all kinds of strange things in this world!”

In the video, the parasitic wasp laid its eggs in the caterpillar's body.

Not one, but more than a dozen.

These eggs carried a special virus that interfered with and paralyzed the caterpillar's immune system.

Thus, the eggs hatched safely in the host's body.

The caterpillar became the bodyguard, nanny, and nanny of these things.

The larvae of the parasitic wasps fed on the caterpillar's blood and grew up with the supply of the caterpillar.

Finally, they grew up.

They bit through the outer skin of the caterpillars and crawled out of their bodies.

At this moment, the important point came!

The caterpillars were not dead yet!

The caterpillars that had been slaves to these parasitic wasps all their lives had now become the bodyguards of these caterpillars.

Not only did they use everything to protect these vulnerable parasitic wasps.

It even spun silk coc.o.o.ns for them.

In the end, the caterpillar died from exhaustion on the parasitic wasps' coc.o.o.ns.

The brand-new parasitic wasps broke out of their coc.o.o.ns.

Next, they would embark on the path of breeding and finding caterpillars.

Ling Ping'an watched this video several times.

“It's really amazing!” After watching it again, he sighed.

The strategy of the parasitic wasps was simply too great.

A parasitic host would make the host work like an ox or a horse, and even serve the host loyally through life and death.

This was a material that could be written into books and become a swarm of insects.

Yes!

Ling Ping'an nodded!

He knew that this kind of strategy, as long as he changed it, the swarm would be very violent.

Parasitism, growth, plunder, reproduction…

Then, he would digest everything about a race.

He felt that readers might like such a swarm of insects!

Thinking of this, he clicked on the 'Legend of Nightmare's Clan Tribe Management' on his phone.

It had been a few days since he last read it.

It was time to go and take a look!

At the same time, he would consider the demonic modification of the parasitism wasps.

Outside Qingshan Town, Xiaoman's figure appeared from the drainage ditch on one side of the river.

This was the emergency escape route of the shelter.

She turned around and looked at Qingshan town in the darkness.

Suddenly, she felt the earth tremble!

The trembling direction was in the market of Qingshan Town.

Under the moonlight, countless plumes of dust were rising.

Among the plumes of dust, a woman's figure with dragonfly-like wings had already soared into the sky.

Looking at it, Xiaoman knew that it was the thing inside the coc.o.o.n.

It had already broken out of the coc.o.o.n!

Facing the moonlight, the woman-like thing opened its wings.

The moonlight flowed into her body like water.

She was cultivating!

Xiaoman's hands began to tremble.

It was cultivating!

And as everyone knew, regardless of whether it was a sky demon or an Asura, they would not cultivate!

These monsters only had crazy paranoia and a thirst for flesh and blood!

But now…

A monster, a monster born from the Asura, was cultivating!

Xiaoman's body was trembling because of this discovery.

What did this mean?

She was very clear about it.

A brand-new type of living creature!

A new type of living creature had appeared between heaven and earth!

In other words, if the human race and the demon race were to be exterminated in the future,.

Then, this life form would become the true master of this world.

At the same time…

Xiao Man knew…

The humans and demons in this world had reached their most dangerous moment!

As long as this new life form existed, the humans and demons would be unable to take back the heavens and earth!

It was something that people once predicted.

They relied on the underground sanctuary to avoid the sky devils and asuras.

They endured until these monsters exhausted their strength, dried up their flesh, and rolled back into the void.

Everyone's dream of coming out of the underground and recapturing the heaven and earth was ruined in the face of these new creatures!
