"How could it be? Looking at these wounds, they are all marks of bites by monsters, right?"
After roughly inspecting the body, Ruolan thought of something and suddenly looked up at Uncle Fu beside him. The tusked wild boar they encountered before was probably not a special case. There might be more monsters in the palace that were attacked by the Heart-Eating Insect. He was under control, and the wild boar just accidentally entered the secret passage.
"Then it seems that this staircase should be able to reach the palace above. If I had known better, I would not have taken the secret passage. I almost ended up in the garden."
Ruolan said with some helplessness. She was now also confused as to why the master of the cave designed such a hidden mechanism and secret passage, but then it was still connected to the first floor of the palace. Was it just for the garden?
"Isn't there Lin Huhu in this Lin family? How could it be possible for a family disciple to be killed by a monster?"
Li Mu followed Ruolan and walked towards the top of the stairs. When he passed the body of the Lin family disciple, he couldn't help but take a few more glances. This male monk was walking with him a few hours ago. The high-spirited appearance is still vivid in my mind, but at this time, even the whole body cannot be preserved. It is really sad.
After walking four or five times on the stairs, bursts of shouts of death were heard by everyone, and everyone looked at each other. It seemed that the large force that had entered the depths of the palace had indeed been attacked by monsters.
The steps quickened and the stairs finally reached the end. The exit was connected to a side hall next to the main hall. Li Mu, who had just emerged, saw a young casual warrior fighting three storm wolves. This kind of monster was Li Mu had dealt with them before, and their fighting power was very strong, but the three storm wolves at this time were far better than the one he had encountered earlier. They surrounded the monk and were about to eat him alive.
Fu Bo, who was the first to walk out, naturally saw the glowing green eyes of the three giant wolves. He snorted coldly and punched three times out of thin air. No level two demon beast could compete with the punch strength of the Infinite Realm. The three were killed by the Heart-Eating Insect. The controlled wolf king died without even a chance to moan.
"Thank you, senior, for taking the initiative."
The casual cultivator who survived the disaster quickly stood up and saluted with clasped fists towards Uncle Fu. If not for Uncle Fu's help, he might have become the storm wolf's dinner by now.
"What's going on? Why are there so many of you together being surrounded by these second-level monsters?"
Ruolan quickly checked the body of the Storm Wolf and quickly determined that the culprit was indeed the Heart-Eating Insect. After taking out a square handkerchief and wiping his hands, he asked the casual cultivator.
"We did enter the hall together before, but those seniors suddenly sensed the presence of a valuable treasure, so they all went deep into the palace to hunt for the treasure."
"Then we all scattered around to look for our own opportunities, and then a group of monsters appeared out of nowhere. The number was as large as a small beast wave, and everyone's eyes were glowing green, and they were incompetent. Afraid of death, even the Qian Huan Sect and Lin family teams were dispersed by monsters, and we casual cultivators are even more outnumbered. If this senior hadn’t taken action, I would have ended up here today."
After listening to what the casual cultivator disciples said, Li Mu couldn't help but turn his attention to Uncle Fu. Being able to allow many powerful people in the Infinite Realm to break away from the team to fight for it was obviously something incredible. So, would Uncle Fu also want to explore it? What about Ichiban?
"Haha, little guy, you are watching what the old man is doing. Don't worry, my situation is different from theirs. No matter how good the baby is, it is not as important as the safety of our little Ruolan."
Li Mu's little thoughts were exposed by Uncle Fu in public, and he immediately blushed. The embarrassment fell into Ruolan's eyes, and she couldn't help covering her mouth and snickering, which made Li Mu even more embarrassed.
After the group knew the cause and the seriousness of the situation, they also knew that they could not stay in this side palace for a long time. Now the entire Lingyun Palace was filled with monsters controlled by the Heart-Eating Insect. It was impossible to hunt for treasure normally. Only by finding the Queen of the Heart-Eating Insect can we completely solve the problem of the beast tide.
The structure of the heart-eating insect group is that the queen controls all the male insects, then sucks the blood of the prey, uses toxins to control the prey's movements, and then searches for more prey. Li Mu only learned about this heart-eating insect after listening to Ruolan's story The system of insects is actually the same as that of bees in previous lives.
The casual cultivator also silently followed Li Mu's group at the end. Even if he had a hundred courages, he would not dare to walk alone in this palace. Only a fool would leave if a strong man of the Infinite Realm leads the group. .
The hall was already in a mess, with bloodstains and corpses of killed monsters everywhere. To be precise, most of these monsters had died long ago, but were controlled by the Heart-Eating Insect to attack the monks again.
"Weird things happen one after another in this cave. Until now, not to mention treasures, we haven't even seen anything valuable. Sister Ruolan, do you think the news about the birth of the cave was deliberately spread by someone? ."
Li Mu walked beside Ruolan and looked at the tragic scenes around him. This cave was like a bone-eating abyss that had swallowed up so many monks. It was almost like a premeditated massacre.
"It's indeed strange, but I prepared for the worst before I formed the team, otherwise I wouldn't have asked Uncle Fu to take action. You can't force the opportunity in this cave, and the reward may not be at the end."
Ruolan's indifference slowly calmed down Li Mu's anxious mood, and he pondered in his mind the fortune teller's advice to him. As long as he asked his heart, he would still be able to get it.
When you think about it, you feel at ease when you get what you want. You will never be able to escape the opportunity that should be yours. Even if you risk your life to fight for the opportunities that are not yours, you may not be able to get what you want.
"Roar"
While the two were talking, an eye-catching white-fronted tiger rushed towards the crowd from the side. Without Li Mu's need to take action, Fu Bo, who was walking at the front of the team, waved his knife in the air, and the second-level monster's body and head were separated, and it fell to the ground. On the ground, he encountered several monsters along the way, all of which were killed by Uncle Fu effortlessly.
"There seems to be a battle ahead. Let's go over and take a look."
The roars and shouts of the monsters came, and Ruolan decided not to stand idly by. If the monks still fight among themselves, they may really fall into the fists of the cave people, and all of them will die here.
"It's Nalan Xue."
Li Mu only saw the iceberg girl in white clothes and snow, constantly waving two daggers to resist the attacks of the four or five monster beasts. Behind her were two female disciples of the Thousand Illusion Sect, who were already covered in blood at this time. They were obviously injured A serious injury.
"Sister Ruolan, can you help me?"
If other casual cultivator disciples were in trouble, Li Mu would not hesitate to help. However, the Qianhuan Sect had conflicts with his side before, and Granny Jin even had murderous intentions towards him. Seeing Nalan Xue He was about to be defeated, and Li Mu was also struggling in his heart.

"Brother, what do you think?"
Ruolan's eyes flickered, obviously making a judgment on the situation.
"Help, every bit of strength is necessary now. I'm very worried that if this cave is really designed to save our lives, then finding the exit may be very difficult. We can't let this cave consume the monks' energy anymore. Strength.”
Uncle Fu also nodded, agreeing with Li Mu's overall view. After seeing Ruolan nodding in approval, he flashed towards the direction of the Thousand Fantasy Sect battle.
