Godslayer: My Forbidden Ruins Master

Darkness, endless darkness.

Lu Xuan's figure plummeted like a falling meteor deep into the pitch-black crevice.

The surrounding air grew increasingly murky, filled with a nauseating, sour odor—the peculiar smell of formic acid mixed with rotting organic matter.

The smell was so strong it was almost tangible, as if an invisible hand was choking someone.

If an ordinary person were in this situation, they probably wouldn't last even ten breaths before suffocating and fainting.

But Lu Xuan only frowned slightly.

For a powerhouse of his caliber, this minor discomfort was nothing. He could even judge how far he was from the core area of ​​the nest by the changes in the intensity of the scent.

The deeper you go, the stronger the smell becomes.

This indicates that he is approaching the heart of that vast tribe.

He did not make any effort to conceal his aura.

Instead, he spread his spiritual power freely in all directions, like lighting a blazing candle in the boundless darkness, dazzling and impossible to ignore.

His spiritual power spread outwards in all directions from him, like invisible ripples.

Every texture of the rock, the direction of every tunnel, and every creature lurking in the darkness were all revealed under his mental scan.

This was done intentionally by Lu Xuan.

He wanted the whole lair to know—someone had broken in.

A plump one, exuding an enticing aroma.

come on.

Lu Xuan murmured to himself, a dangerous smile curving his lips.

I want to see just how many tricks your group has up its sleeve.

Shhhhhh!

Sure enough, just as he fell to a depth of about 300 meters, the rock walls on all sides began to tremble violently.

The tremor was initially very slight, like distant rumbling thunder. But after only two or three seconds, the tremor became violent, as if a thousand horses were galloping in this direction!

Countless fine sand particles rolled down from the cracks in the rock wall, forming a series of yellowish-brown waterfalls in this dark abyss.

Immediately afterwards, countless blood-red figures poured out of one dark tunnel after another!

Those are worker ants!

The Kawakami worker ants are even larger than those on the surface!

Their carapaces were a striking blood red, gleaming eerily in the darkness. The carapaces were covered with uneven patterns, like some ancient totem, exuding a primitive and savage aura.

Each worker ant is as big as an adult's calf, with six segmented limbs like sharp daggers, making a crisp clicking sound as it climbs rapidly up the rock face.

They surged out from all directions, rushing towards Lu Xuan like a tidal wave!

From above!

From below!

From the left!

From the right!

Everywhere, penetrating everywhere!

Each worker ant's compound eyes gleamed with a hungry, greedy light, and its massive mandibles opened and closed repeatedly, producing a clicking, metallic scraping sound. The sounds combined to form a chilling noise, as if the gates of hell were slowly opening.

They arrived quite quickly.

Lu Xuan's lips curled up slightly, and his figure suddenly stopped in mid-air.

Without using any tools, he relied solely on his abnormally strong physical strength to grip the rock walls on both sides with his hands and forcefully stop his fall.

The movement appeared effortless, but it actually contained terrifying power.

Keep in mind that he was falling so fast that it created a whistling sound. At that speed, the recoil force required to stop instantly would be enough to shatter a boulder into pieces!

But Lu Xuan's body remained as still as a mountain that had stood for a thousand years, hovering steadily in mid-air.

The rock face was as hard as iron, compressed into an impenetrable structure over millions of years of geological activity.

If an ordinary sword or knife were to strike it, it would probably only leave a shallow white mark.

But under Lu Xuan's grip, the rock wall caved in like tofu, leaving ten deep finger marks!

The finger mark was three inches deep, with clean, knife-cut edges, and rock fragments fell down in a flurry.

If this scene were witnessed by powerful figures outside, they would probably be utterly astonished.

Now that you're here, don't even think about leaving.

Lu Xuan's eyes instantly turned cold.

There was no trace of panic or fear in his eyes, only the cold indifference and scrutiny of a hunter looking at his prey.

Yes.

In this encounter, it appears that he was surrounded by countless worker ants.

But in reality, he was the real hunter.

These swarming worker ants are nothing more than experience points delivered to our doorstep.

He let go of his hands, and his whole body fell again.

But this time, he actively went to meet the overwhelming swarm of worker ants!

Mirror Eyes - A Thousand Threads of Drama!

Lu Xuan let out a low shout, and a silver light suddenly flashed in his pitch-black pupils.

The next moment, countless transparent threads shot out from his fingertips!

The threads were as thin as hair, almost completely transparent, and impossible to see with the naked eye in this pitch-black environment. However, if one were to perceive them with spiritual power, one would discover that each thread contained a terrifyingly sharp intent!

That's a death line that can easily cut through steel!

Countless threads intertwined and crisscrossed in this narrow space, weaving into an impenetrable net of death in a mere instant!

The net covered the entire rift space, from top to bottom and left to right; every inch of space was occupied by those transparent threads. Any creature that wanted to approach Lu Xuan had to pass through this net first.

The price to pass through is death!

*Sizzle sizzle sizzle—!*

Before the worker ants at the forefront could even touch Lu Xuan's clothes, they were already cut into countless pieces by those invisible threads!

Their shells are as fragile as paper in the face of those silk threads!

The once incredibly hard, blood-red exoskeleton was easily sliced ​​open by the silk threads, and the internal organs and bodily fluids inside gushed out instantly!

A worker ant was split in two right in the middle!

The other worker ant's six segments were cleanly severed, leaving only a bare torso!

Even more worker ants were cut into pieces, their bodies turning into countless fragments of varying sizes within that web of death!

Blood and bits of flesh rained down from the sky, like a crimson downpour!

The blood was dark green, with a pungent, sour stench, and it made a corrosive sound as it splashed onto the rock wall.

But there were just too many worker ants!

In this intricate underground world, countless tunnels crisscross like capillaries.

New worker ants are emerging from every tunnel!

From the depths of those tunnels, the sound of rustling footsteps could still be heard continuously.

The sound was so dense, like a torrential downpour hitting a banana leaf, that it was impossible to tell how many worker ants were rushing over!

They seemed completely unconcerned about the death of their companions.

The chopped-up worker ant corpses became their stepping stones as they charged forward, stepping over the bodies of their comrades like endless waves!

This is the Zerg!

There was no fear, no hesitation, only endless hatred for the invaders!

That's quite a lot...

Lu Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly. Through the layers of worker ants, he could even see more blood-red figures wriggling in the deeper tunnel.

A rough estimate suggests that the first wave of worker ants alone numbered in the thousands!

And this is probably just a drop in the ocean of this enormous nest!

But Lu Xuan felt no fear whatsoever; instead, a surge of fighting pleasure welled up from the bottom of his heart.

His breathing became rapid, his blood began to boil, and every pore screamed with excitement!

I haven't experienced this feeling of one against ten thousand in so long!

Since he broke through to his current level, there have been fewer and fewer opponents who can make him take a serious stance.

I haven't experienced that thrill of dancing wildly on the edge of life and death in a long time.

Although these worker ants are not individually strong, their sheer numbers are terrifying.

An infinite number is itself a power!

That being the case...

Lu Xuan licked his lips, a dangerous glint in his eyes.

Then let me enjoy this moment!

He will no longer hold back!

Unleash your full mental power!

The transparent mesh that originally only covered an area of ​​about ten meters around it began to expand wildly!

Twenty meters!

Thirty meters!

Fifty meters!

One hundred meters!

The transparent threads transformed into countless flying blades of light, frantically reaping the lives of worker ants in this confined space!

Every second, several worker ants are cut up and dismembered!

Every second, a large amount of blood is splattering!

The silk threads seemed to come alive, becoming incredibly flexible under Lu Xuan's mental control.

They attacked the worker ants from all sorts of unbelievable angles, whether by slashing horizontally, chopping vertically, entwining, or piercing!

The worker ants' corpses began to accumulate in the cracks, quickly forming small hills made of scraps of flesh and mangled limbs.

The dark green blood flowed like a stream into the depths of the abyss, turning the entire space into a shocking green!

However, just as Lu Xuan was unleashing his killing spree, his spiritual power suddenly detected a different aura.

That aura was far stronger than that of ordinary worker ants!

It's not just a tiny difference, it's like the difference between a firefly and the bright moon!

The aura was deep and steady, carrying the seasoned experience of countless battles.

Those are true warriors!

Lu Xuan turned around and his pupils contracted slightly.

Several enormous figures were slowly emerging from a wide tunnel behind him.

The tunnel was much wider than the others, enough to allow five or six adults to walk side by side.

The figure emerging from the depths of the tunnel made Lu Xuan's eyes narrow slightly.

Those aren't worker ants!

Those are—soldier ants!

Unlike the blood-red carapaces of worker ants, the carapaces of these soldier ants are a deep, dark red, like congealed blood or aged red wine. The surface of their carapaces is as smooth as a mirror, subtly reflecting the surrounding scenery.

They were more than twice the size of worker ants!

If worker ants are the size of a calf, then these soldier ants are like a fully grown cheetah!

Those six thick, long legs were like pillars cast in steel, and each time they landed, the surrounding rock walls trembled slightly. The joints of those limbs were covered with layers of armor plates, protecting all their weaknesses perfectly.

The most terrifying thing is their heads!

Its head took up almost a third of its entire body, and it had a pair of huge, sickle-shaped fangs.

The fangs were half a meter long, with an eerie deep black color and fine serrations along the edges, reflecting a cold, sharp light in the darkness.
