The end of the world: mountain and sea disasters

Thick fog permeated the forest.

Yu Ke was now in a depression between two low mountains.

The soul-eating insect hidden in the body of the arrogant insect escaped here, but did not return to its original body, but drilled into the body of another insect beast.

More importantly, the source of the abnormal fluctuations in the mountains' veins was here.

Yu Ke, who wanted to launch a surprise attack, instead sneaked closer.

The meteor shower will soon fall on the earth.

It forced the Zhongshan God to seal himself, and then dormant for thousands of years to erode his divine power, and finally waited for the meteor disaster to come to the world.

The arrogant insect took great pains to make these arrangements. In Yu Ke's opinion, it was not just to lift the seal of the beast tide.

If it was just a guess before, he was sure of it now!

The first thing Yu Ke encountered while moving forward was a thick and long spider leg inserted in the mud. Its diameter was half a meter, and its height was even more difficult to distinguish, because the more than three meters above his head had been shrouded in thick fog, and he could only barely see the outline of the giant beast.

Yu Ke's approach did not cause any reaction from the spider leg. It was like a support, sticking straight in the ground.

It made people think of a huge spider entrenched in the mountains, with eight spider legs spread out and propped up, and the area covered by its trunk was ahead.

That was the problem.

Why was such a huge insect beast idle here instead of attacking the camp?

Speeding up his pace, Yu Ke realized that his original intention to chase the body of the proud insect might accidentally touch the secret of the proud insect.

The discovery of the forest spirit further verified this point.

"This insect beast contains part of the power of the Zhongshan God, and I can't control or interfere with its actions."

For any normal natural creature, the forest spirit can communicate through its own characteristics, but the giant spider entrenched here is obviously beyond this scope, and it is completely controlled by the proud insect.

"I have found the source of the abnormal fluctuations in the ground veins, pay attention to the changes in the ground veins."

The thick fog only interfered with the line of sight, and the satellite call could still be used as usual. Yu Ke continued to move forward while contacting Fang Xuanhe in the ruins.

Until I saw the tentacles hanging above the forest.

In the middle of the monster's trunk, in the thick fog, dozens of tentacles covered with red tumors on the surface hung from a height, twisted and entangled into the ground, and the raised soil layer next to them proved that these tentacles were most likely deep underground.

The scene in front of him made Yu Ke subconsciously think of geological exploration instruments.

The monster's trunk, whose outline could only be vaguely seen above, was like the main platform. The tentacles that kept flashing with faint light were the data cables connected to the exploration equipment at the top. Every once in a while, they would transmit the underground situation back to the platform on the surface for analysis.

This guy didn't seem to have any aggressiveness.

Even when Yu Ke walked to the tentacles with the Leviathan battle axe, the monster didn't react at all, but continued to "work" conscientiously.

"No wonder they created fog first and then sent insect beasts to besiege the camp. Was it to cover you?"

Moving his eyes upward along the tentacles, Yu Ke whispered to himself.

I have to admit that Jiaochong's arrangements are closely linked.

Using the clone to lead the army of insect beasts to besiege the camp, test the camp's combat power while attracting the attention of the defense forces, and take this opportunity to control the giant beasts outside to erode the earth veins. Even if the siege of the camp fails, it will not hinder its plan.

If Yu Ke had not discovered that the insect demon that broke into the camp was just a clone through the trait of checking for leaks and filling gaps, he would definitely choose to stay in the camp and would not be able to interfere with the plan of the arrogant insect.

"No more powerful creatures have been found nearby, and the arrogant insect is not here."

"The arrogant insect is not here?"

Yu Ke raised his eyebrows. It is said that this guy in front of him is the key existence to erode the earth veins. If the arrogant insect is not here to guard, where else can it go?

Confused in his heart, Yu Ke's actions were not slow.

No matter what the arrogant insect wants to do, it is always right to get rid of the monster that erodes the earth veins first.

Maybe it can force the arrogant insect hiding in the dark to show up and rescue.

Besides, Yu Ke also needs to see the whole picture of the monster before he can use the trait of checking for leaks and fill gaps to analyze and figure out the meaning of its existence.

The battle axe with dragon breath swept across, cutting off all the entangled tentacles.

Blood splashed at the gap, and the screams resounded through the forest.

The long and thick spider legs rose from the ground, crossing the branches and leaves of the trees, making a rustling sound. The erosion of the earth veins was interrupted, and the severe pain in the limbs made the monster furious, but the funny thing was that after being enraged, it just circled back and forth in the same place.

Even though it knew that Yu Ke was under its torso, it still couldn't make an effective counterattack.

The huge body became a burden at this moment, and Yu Ke didn't intend to give it a chance to adjust. He put away the battle axe and took out the bow and arrow. He didn't even need to aim specifically, and raised his hand to shoot. The monster was too big and was completely a target.

In the one-sided suppression battle, Yu Ke quickly realized that this monster should have been specially transformed by Jiao Chong, and the meaning of its existence was to accommodate part of the power of the mountain god and then erode the earth veins.

To put it bluntly, it is a temporary tool, and its combat power is pitifully weak. No wonder the fog had to be arranged in advance.

Seeing that the arrogant insect had no intention of showing up, Yu Ke did not intend to waste time. He found the location of its head by feeling, and shot out three dragon breath burst arrows.

Accompanied by the sound of explosion, the monster's huge body trembled continuously, and soon it stiffened and collapsed, breaking the branches.

"I have killed the target. What is the situation of the ground vein? Is it still in a state of chaos?"

After retreating to a safe area to avoid being hit by the monster's body, Yu Ke contacted Fang Xuanhe again and asked Senling to re-detect the ground veins in this area, following the position where the tentacles had just penetrated, maybe he could capture some key information.

"The ground vein situation can only be said to have improved. Something is wrong. The last time the fog appeared, I could feel that some kind of force was deliberately targeting the beast tide seal. Although it also had an impact this time, it was not directed at the seal."

Fang Xuanhe has been studying the beast tide seal in the ruins for quite a long time. It can be said that there is basically no one in the entire Jinghang City who knows the seal better than him.

Comparing the impact of the ground vein movement on the seal during the two fog events, he noticed something unusual.

Because he could not leave the ruins at will, Fang Xuanhe could only choose to tell Yu Ke the information, hoping that he could find out the truth.

The ground vein movement has not ended, it has only improved.

There is no doubt that the arrogant insects have other arrangements in other areas of the mountains, and the monster entrenched here may be just one of them.

This is a bit troublesome.

The fog covered too large an area. Yu Ke had previously found this place by tracking the Soul Devourer. Now that it was dead, the Soul Devourer in its body seemed to have no intention of leaving and moving on to the next stop.

Perhaps the arrogant insect had not expected that the monster under heavy cover would be killed.

Yu Ke could not run around in the mountains and try his luck to find the Soul Devourer. That would just be a waste of time.

At least the location of the arrogant insect had to be determined!

Just when Yu Ke was at a loss, the forest spirit sent a message, "It is using the power of Zhongshan God to communicate with the earth veins. It is not just disrupting it, it is injecting the will of the arrogant insect into the earth veins, trying to control the earth veins in this way!" "Is this possible?" "Under normal circumstances, it is impossible. The earth veins are the core of the mountains. Controlling the earth veins is equivalent to controlling the rise and fall of the mountains. But the arrogant insect has seized the power of some of the mountain gods and usurped the authority. There is indeed a possibility of success." Just as the forest spirit is the guardian of the Mirror Lake Forest, Zhongshan God, as a god of the same type, was born from the earth veins of the mountains. The two complement each other, and since the arrogant insect has obtained the power of some of the mountain gods, it has the qualifications to control the earth veins. Yu Ke took a deep breath after learning this, and felt his scalp tingling. No wonder the arrogant insect only sent its clone to lead the insect beast to attack the camp. It simply wanted to cut off the firewood from the bottom of the pot! Once the earth veins of the mountains are controlled by the arrogant insect, no matter how hard Yu Ke and Fang Xuanhe try to maintain the stability of the seal, it will be meaningless. The seal array without its foundation is like a pagoda made of gravel, which will collapse when the wind blows.

By then, the entire mountain area will be controlled by the arrogant insects. Coupled with the confusion of meteors, the apocalyptic scene shown by Zhongshan God in the illusion may be staged in the Beijing-Hangzhou area one after another, and no one will be spared!

"Is there any way to lock the location of the arrogant insect? We must stop it!"

Yu Ke is now somewhat helpless. He cannot affect the veins of the mountains. If he can't find the arrogant insect, everything will be over.

"I can't track the arrogant insect. It has the power of Zhongshan God and has an advantage in the mountain area. The fog appears because of its control, in order to block the outside world's prying, so that it can have enough time to control the veins of the mountains."

Sen Ling's answer is discouraging. The arrogant insect, which has been dormant for thousands of years, does not allow its plan to be destroyed by anyone.

The army of insects and beasts, the clone, the fog.

In the final analysis, they are all the many levels it has set for Yu Ke and others.

Looking at the watch, the time has come to nine o'clock in the evening, and there is only one hour left before the arrival of the meteor shower.

It is foreseeable that the arrival of the meteor shower will completely disrupt the order of this world, and the arrogant insect is probably waiting for that moment.

Where is it hiding?

While Yu Ke was frowning and thinking, Sen Ling made a new discovery,

"The mountain veins are resisting the invasion of the arrogant insect's will. Strange. There seems to be another force in the veins that repels the invasion of the outside world. It may be that the arrangement left by Zhongshan God foresaw this situation."

As soon as the voice fell, Yu Ke had already opened the watch map to check, and then rushed to the northeast.

He knew where to find the arrogant insect!

Not long ago, when Yu Ke was investigating the situation on the top of the mountain, he was reminded by Zhongshan God. Through the comparison of the illusion and the present world, he found a thousand-year-old banyan tree and the hills below it.

Now the mountain veins are resisting the invasion of the arrogant insect's will, there must be a source.

The area specially marked by Zhongshan God is a very critical existence, and it is very likely to be the source.

Yu Ke may not know where the arrogant insect is hiding, but he knows very well that if the arrogant insect wants to completely control the mountains and land veins, it must erase all the marks of the Zhongshan God.

This means that the banyan tree that has remained unchanged for thousands of years will definitely attract arrogant insects!
