Chapter 442: Chapter 453: Spatial Rift, Bloodthirsty Demon Insects!
The winding Li River, with its distant flowing waters, a vast river surface shimmering with wave-like glints, sparkled with countless fragments of gold under the brilliant sunlight.
Beneath the river surface, the water flowed at an extreme speed, somewhat murky, with shadows of fierce fish darting swiftly through the water.
Boom～
Suddenly, the tranquil riverbed shook violently, and the entire Li River seemed like a giant dragon awakening from slumber. The water roiled instantly, waves surged, and high waves rolled incessantly in the river.
The unexpected upheaval shocked the fierce fish and beasts underwater, causing them to swim rapidly in panic.
Some fierce fish near the center of the vibration were stunned by the tremor, flipping belly up and floating on the river surface.
At this moment, at the immensely murky riverbed, a hideous space rift appeared out of nowhere.
In the next moment, a large amount of black mist began pouring out from the ten-zhang-long rift, pushing back all the river water that had initially been sucked into the rift.
Whoo-lulu～
As the black mist spread in all directions, the entire riverbed was enveloped in a layer of black fog. Bubbles emerged on the surging river surface, emitting strands of black smoke.
Meanwhile, in the dimly lit riverbed, strange shadowy figures squeezed out of the space rift.
Monstrous black-armored fish with rows of bone spikes on their backs, three heads, and fanged grimaces; grotesque giant toads the size of cars, covered in disgusting blood-tinted eyes and swollen pustules; eel-like creatures with numerous abdominal cavities…
These terrifying creatures emitted an aura of horror and malice.
After emerging from the space rift, these terrifying creatures began to invade in all directions, casting malicious gazes at the swiftly swimming mutated fierce fish beneath the water.
In the next moment, the already calming waves on the Li River surface surged once again, with streams of obvious blood flowing out from beneath the water, dyeing large areas red.
Meanwhile, a thousand meters away from Jiang Province, the Qilian Mountain Range sprawled across the earth like a colossal ancient beast, its age unfathomable.
Abundant vegetation and endless fierce beasts filled the Qilian Mountain Range with vitality.
Rumble～
Suddenly, with a thunderous crash, the ground began to tremble, and the whole Qilian Mountain began to shake.
Many trees in the mountain started collapsing, and the fierce beasts living in the mountains were frantic, letting out a series of roars.
Crack~
At the highest peak of the Qilian Mountain Range, the Sky-reaching Peak, which stood like a celestial pillar, a menacing space rift appeared once again amidst the clouds.
Buzz~Buzz~Buzz~
In the next moment, a blood-red mist filled the massive space rift, and with a deafening hum, blood-colored demon insects the size of palms swarmed out of the rift.
Like sardine schools beneath the sea, the terrifying blood-colored demon insects poured continuously from the space rift, spreading like silken ribbons filled with blood and danger, flying towards all corners of the Qilian Mountain Range.
Instantly, everything along the way was devoured by the ravenous and maniacal blood-colored demon insects, leaving nothing but their skeletons behind.
In no time, the entire Qilian Mountain Range transformed into a living hell, with terrifying mournful beast roars echoing amidst the mountains as a myriad of fierce beasts turned into the demon insects’ blood feast.
Simultaneously, countless panic-stricken fierce beasts began to flee towards the outskirts of the mountain range.
Unfortunately, the blood-colored demon insect swarm was faster than most fierce beasts, and in just a few breaths, countless fierce beasts were engulfed by the overwhelming swarm.
From afar, the sky over the entire Qilian Mountain Range seemed draped with immense blood-red drapes, fluttering with the wind.
Beneath the brilliant spectacle lurked a mortal crisis unbeknownst to all.
During this period, countless space rifts like these quietly appeared at various corners of the world, bringing with them endless malice and accompanying relentless slaughter.
…
Li River Base City.
Two months have passed, and the Base City, which has been undergoing rapid development, has made significant progress.
The lush vegetable fields enjoyed a bountiful harvest, filling all the refrigerators Lu Chuan had prepared to the brim, far more than could be consumed.
The already towering high walls were further expanded and heightened by Lu Chuan. Now, the high walls surrounding Li River Base City stood at nine zhang, immensely thick, three zhang wide—not only capable of accommodating horses but also allowing cars to drive around.
Due to the need to reinforce the city walls, many houses in large areas of the city have been dismantled.
The resulting vacant land was now transformed by Lu Chuan’s control over corpse puppets into an extensive pond.
At this moment, the vast water surface was teeming with black fish schools, frenziedly fighting over floating carcasses, stirring up large waves.
These fish swimming on the water’s surface were all composed of finger-length fierce fish fry.
Villa District.
Rumble～
Lu Chuan engaged in combat with several of his subservient sixth-order corpse puppets.
Scarlet blades danced in the air, producing a series of blade hums, clashing with the approaching Er Pang, Undead One, and other corpse puppets, causing piercing roaring sounds.
However, despite the full effort of these corpse puppets ceaselessly attacking Lu Chuan, they still failed to touch the hem of Lu Chuan’s garment.
A pair of cyan divine spirit wings sprouted from Lu Chuan’s back, each gentle pulsation granting him terrifying augmentation, making him seem as if teleporting across the battlefield.
A while later, sensing the spiritual essence within the corpse puppets was nearing depletion, Lu Chuan hurriedly issued a cease command, halting all the attacking corpse puppets.
“Hoo~”
Releasing a long breath, Lu Chuan gazed at the corpse puppets before him and nodded with satisfaction, recalling the previous performance.
In two months, the spiritual essence within him had increased several times since his breakthrough. The Combat Skill Blood Slaughter Saber Technique had reached perfection, easily releasing blade energy.
The Cyan Roc Spreading Wings Technique was also perfected; at full power, a pair of roc wings unfolded at his back, granting extreme speed.
Additionally, Lu Chuan now possessed eight sixth-order corpse puppets.
Namely Flame One, Two, Undead One, Flyer One, Er Pang, Earth Escape One, Invisible One, and Water Manipulation One!
In two months, his strength was greatly enhanced!
At this moment, Ji Ruxue was cultivating inside the room, seated cross-legged on the bed.
“Soon, I’ll break through to the seventh order.” With a sense of excitement in her eyes, Ji Ruxue sensed the spiritual essence within her.
During this time, she continuously consumed fierce beast meat and drank plenty of high-grade evolution potions concocted from the original Base City laboratory equipment and a large number of crystal cores!
“Hmm, is this… demonic qi?”
