Gu Qingyang followed the sound and saw that the pitch-black sea of insects had the potential to cover the sky and the sun. When it soared, it roared like thunder, which was extremely terrifying.
Moreover, these black beetles were no different in appearance from the white beetles he had just encountered.
If you compare the two carefully, you can find that the only difference between the former and the latter lies in their strength.
The strength of that white beetle is only comparable to that of a bone cultivator in the Life Bone Realm, an innate Huangpin.
But this black beetle is different. Their strength has exceeded that of ordinary life bone realm bone cultivators.
In other words, the shackles of acquired red products have been broken by them.
They were just like the steel creatures he and his sister had just encountered.
Their combat prowess is comparable to that of the Bone Sacrifice Realm.
After realizing this situation, Gu Qingyang couldn't help but frown.
Although, he was mentally prepared before entering the Tianyang Secret Realm.
But now, after actually arriving in the Tianyang Secret Realm, he discovered that the true situation of this secret realm had already exceeded his expectations.
Not to mention the ancient city of Qinjia, not to mention the steel creatures in that ancient city, just these beetles in front of us.
This is something they can't compete with.
If there were only a few or dozens of beetles appearing in front of them, then this matter could be solved.
But the problem is that this kind of beetles have such tyrannical cultivation as soon as they appear. Coupled with their large numbers, they are endless.
Even someone as thoughtful as Gu Qingyang can't figure out how to deal with or kill these beetles.
"Everyone, quickly control your breath, use your own body skills, and then fly upward as much as possible."
However, just when Gu Qingyang was about to bite the bullet and fight with him.
A roar appeared at this moment, and it drowned out the sounds of insects.
After hearing this, everyone present chose to take action.
At this moment, they couldn't care about anything else.
No matter whether the guidance given by this voice is right or wrong, they have no choice.
"Zhizhizhizhi——"
Soon, the chirping of insects shook the sky, and the black swarm of insects was already close in front of us.
The many monks present were all as the voice said.
Everyone tried their best to contain their breath, and then used their body skills to fly towards the sky with all their strength.
And the insect swarm seemed to be subject to some kind of restriction. It seemed that it suddenly became blind and lost its position as a group cultivator.
They screamed and flew away from here in just a moment, flying into the distance. And seeing such a scene, everyone was frightened.
"ah!"
"Save me, save-"
However, at this moment, another cry for help sounded from underneath the crowd, attracting everyone's attention.
When everyone lowered their heads and looked down, they saw a man wailing continuously.
This person probably flew too low and was still hit by the beetle.
Gu Qingyang noticed that the other party was not eaten to death by the dark beetle, but was knocked to death by the beetle.
Among this swarm of insects, it seems that only the beetles at the forefront will take the initiative to attack the enemy, and apart from them.
The other beetles in this swarm seem to have only one goal, and that is to move forward, constantly moving forward.
"There may be some kind of huge magic circle in this secret realm of Tianyang."
"Either, there are many spells left over from that ancient civilization."
"Whether it's the steel creature, the white beetle, or the black beetle now."
"They should all be leftovers from that ancient civilization."
"To that civilization, we are just a group of outsiders."
“And these things, and the things that may come next.”
"Probably, it's used to eliminate outsiders like us, right?"
…
The swarm of insects is still screaming.
The crowd was already silent.
With the example of the bone cultivator there, no one among the cultivators present dared to take the risk.
Therefore, they chose silence, just silently thinking about their situation and the ways and means they could think of.
Gu Qingyang was the same as them.
However, Gu Qingyang has experienced one more weird thing than them in this secret world, and it is a bit more terrifying than what they have experienced.
In addition, Gu Qingyang knew more things than they did. So while these people are still thinking hard.
However, Gu Qingyang has used everything he knows to build a prototype of the world in his own mind.
Although, from the current point of view, this prototype seems to have little effect, and it has no direct help to the current situation.
But Gu Qingyang knew that once this secret realm was more terrifying than what he saw now, then the replica of the world would become important.
Formations and spells are inherently mysterious and ever-changing things.
A civilization suddenly appeared,
And then die in an instant.
This is something he witnessed with his own eyes when he first came to this secret world.
At this moment, when he thought about this experience again, he couldn't help but begin to doubt that this was just an illusion he had seen.
But, from beginning to end, everything he experienced and saw was too real. Because of this, he thinks from other perspectives.
"Then, what is hidden in this secret realm?"
"Ancient civilization ruins?"
"Is it a natural treasure or an inheritance?"
"Or is it something else?"
"Or is this just a killing spree carefully arranged by others?"
"The so-called treasures of heaven and earth, the so-called inheritance of magical powers, are they all just bait?"
…
I don’t know how long it took before the black swarm of insects finally disappeared.
Under the attention of everyone, they screamed and flew into the distance.
After that, everyone chose to land.
However, these people still did not speak.
Everyone unanimously chose a place to sit down, and then began to meditate, refining the spiritual power in this secret realm.
Monks in the Life Bone Realm can fly as long as they practice to the acquired purple level or above. However, the flight time of Life Bone Realm monks is very short.
Flying for several days without eating or drinking, such a thing is extremely difficult for even an innate scarlet bone repairer to accomplish.
Because, no matter what kind of movement technique is relied on, flying requires spiritual power.
Unless, a bone cultivator can accumulate his own spiritual power to an extraordinary level.
And this level often refers to the level beyond the realm of life bones.
And such people are either monks who have broken the shackles of the Life Bone Realm and become bone sacrifices, or monks who are above the bone sacrifice realm.
Otherwise, they can only be freaks with extraordinary talents. Among the people present, there was obviously no such person.
If I had to say it, Gu Qingying should be considered half of it.
However, because this secret realm is extremely dangerous and unpredictable.
Therefore, she did not dare to waste too much of her spiritual power.
After all, in this secret realm, anyone except Gu Qingyang might become her enemy for some reason.
On the surface, she can work together with these people from the Hanging Coffin Ancient Sect. But that's just because they haven't had the opportunity yet.
As long as there are enough interests in front of these bone cultivators, then these bone cultivators will definitely cross certain thresholds in their hearts.
At that time, such a bone cultivator will become his enemy.
This kind of truth was inscribed on the animal bones that Gu Qingyang first gave her.
During the years of practicing in the Ancient Hanging Coffin Sect, she seemed to be indifferent to the world and always devoted herself to practicing.
But in fact, she has been relying on the animal bones given by Gu Qingyang to understand the world.
What kind of world is this?
It is dense and seemingly beautiful.
All living beings live in this world, and they have countless wonderful stories.
But behind the beauty, what really exists is the killing that can never stop.
For wealth, status, honor... and the most direct benefits.
People, or other creatures, can become crazy and lose themselves.
Therefore, Gu Qingying did the right thing.
At the same time, Gu Qingyang also looked at this secret realm from the perspective of human nature.
He knew very well that there must be countless dangerous places in this secret realm.
However, before entering the secret realm, the danger he thought was only due to the word nature.
As the name suggests, the dangers he considers are naturally formed and are natural dangers.
But as soon as he came in, he saw the shadow of civilization here.
And this means that there are not only natural dangers here, but also man-made dangers.
Just like the ancient steel city called Qinjia.
Like, those white and black beetles.
They are all dangerous, but they can only be regarded as part of the danger.
Gu Qingyang could guess that they were probably some kind of formation or part of a certain formula. But so far, he hasn't learned enough.
Everything he learned was just enough to create a rough outline of the entire secret realm in his mind.
Beyond that, he couldn't portray much more.
"Whose voice was that just now?"
"Are you referring to what you just said? Then this voice should be mine."
"I don't know what you have experienced, my fellow Taoist. But we are familiar with this beetle."
"At the beginning, after entering this secret realm, we were already here."
"There are ruins everywhere here, and black beetles occasionally appear."
"It's just that in the past, there were only a few black beetles at most."
"But this time, they are actually in groups, and they have actually become an insect tide."
"If I hadn't paid attention to the habits of this black beetle, I'm afraid we would all be buried here."
"So, thank you very much."
Seeing that the man explained in such detail, Gu Qingyang didn't say much.
After a simple thank you, Gu Qingyang was still thinking about where this place was.
The ancient mysterious civilization left something like a ruin here, leaving behind formations or spells as a means of protection.
What is this for?
Is it to build a tomb?
Or is it to protect something or to achieve a certain purpose.
The person he spoke to didn't bring him any useful information.
It is important to understand the habits of black beetles.
However, this can only solve the current problem.
Whether it is the past or the future, this black beetle is not the most dangerous thing.
Gu Qingyang, who has witnessed the appearance of that civilization, can conclude.
These black beetles must have an extremely deep relationship with the previous white beetles.
Alternatively, they are descendants of white beetles.
Or, they are the white beetles themselves.
This beetle either relies on reproduction to exist today.
Either way, it exists today only through mutation and evolution.
Beyond that, there may be other possibilities.
But, he could only think of this.
With all the conditions known so far, we can only guess to this point.
"Look, that's——"
However, Gu Qingyang didn't wait for him to continue thinking.
Far away, above the sky.
As the red glow representing dusk appeared above the sky, among the sea of clouds, a bloody setting sun finally revealed its face.
Of course, if there was just a ray of setting sun, it wouldn't be a scene worthy of attention.
But what's really strange is that after this bloody setting sun appears.
The pitch-black sea of insects that they had seen before had reappeared.
However, this sea of insects is not directed at them.
Those black beetles just appeared from all directions in the sea of clouds, and then rushed towards the setting sun desperately.
And everyone present just stood there and witnessed this strange scene. At this moment, many people are shocked by this.
They just felt that they were completely unable to understand what was happening in front of them.
But this scene made Gu Qingyang's eyes shine with a strange light.
Because this scene was enough to make the picture in his mind more perfect.
"The sun has faded for black insects, and the sun for blood has first appeared."
"Time is infinite, the blood of all living beings."
"The glory of the ancient clan will surely reappear."
"The secret treasure of Tianyang, the sound of Qin Chi."
…
As the swarm appears, the swarm disappears.
One voice after another resounded throughout the world at this moment.
And this voice is not someone’s voice, but the voice of this world.
This voice is extremely old.
When you listen to it, you feel as if the owner of this voice has been there for many years.
And after this voice appeared, it just repeated those words over and over again in the tone of chanting sutras, letting these words continue to echo.
Such a change naturally attracted the attention of all the bone cultivators present.
However, even if such a change occurs, everyone present still has no idea what these words mean.
But at the same time, as those black beetles disappeared, night had fallen.
But what hung high in the night was not a bright moon.
There are no stars in the night sky.
In the night sky, there is only blood and Yang.
Yes, the blood yang that appeared before has not disappeared over time, it has always existed.
And compared to before, after those black beetles were also swallowed up by it, it became obviously brighter red.
"The sun has faded for black insects, and the sun for blood has first appeared."
"Black insect, blood sun——"
Just when Gu Qingyang was still thinking about the meaning of these words, there were several more exclamations not far away.
"Look, there is a stone monument here!"
…
