"???!"

Does she know how to get in?

Without his pelvis, how could she open the underground space?

The human-gu outside became increasingly agitated, seemingly sensing danger. Its limbs were wildly agitated, and it began frantically ramming against the invisible barrier.

Some were already delirious, staring blankly at the black pupils that had been standing behind them.

One of them went berserk and charged straight at the enemy. Black Eyes sensed something was wrong and quickly took out a bone plate as a deterrent. Sure enough, the human-gu retreated in fear.

There was no audible sound from the impact.

What's most unsettling is the roar of the human-gu and its crazed appearance.

Nangong Qian followed closely behind Jing Li, her heart pounding with anxiety as she tried to get inside quickly. She feared the screen outside wouldn't hold up; so many human Gu worms, densely packed together...

She couldn't imagine what would happen if the big boss really faced them; would he be at a disadvantage and ultimately have no choice but to run away?

......

Black Eyes wanted to take the opportunity to follow them, but as a result, like the Human Gu, he couldn't get close to that house.

He already knew in his heart that Jing Li must have used some means, just like him, to set up an independent space and keep them outside.

However, her independent space is not as good as the pelvis she created herself.

But he couldn't get through!

The thing in that woman's hand was even more powerful than his pelvis.

This is really not right. The pelvis is the ultimate embodiment of all Yin energy; nothing can be more powerful than it.

Black Eyes gritted his teeth, his face dark as he watched their figures disappear.

What he didn't know was that the space created by his pelvis was indeed very powerful. If he wanted to create an independent space, Jing Li would indeed find it difficult to build without a magic weapon, and it would require a huge amount of spiritual power.

But she didn't create an independent space at all; she used an array.

Once the formation is complete, all things are sealed.

In her position, she is a god.

......

......

Nangong Qian had only taken a few steps when she was met with a setback. There was clearly nothing in front of her, yet she couldn't get through. This feeling was very similar to when her older brother had trapped her.

"Luckily, I don't have a surgically enhanced face. If it were one of those annoying people in the industry, I probably would have lost my nose too."

Nangong Qian muttered a complaint while tentatively reaching forward with her hand.

The ghost general pulled her back, and at the same time, a swarm of flying insects flew out from the invisible barrier.

"Not cautious enough."

A swarm of insects vanished completely under the ghost general's malevolent aura.

Nangong Qian: "......"

He never utters a kind word, only lectures.

The insect flashed past Jingli only briefly; she caught a glimpse of its wriggling body beneath its wings.

It has evolved...

Jingli: "Let's go!"

Nangong Qian looked around but didn't see any way down. "Let's go? Boss, we don't have a way down. Have you found one yet?"

Jing Li replied calmly, "Mm."

Nangong Qian looked around for a while longer: "Where?"

"this!"

Jing Li pointed to the spot where Nangong Qian had just been hit.

"Isn't something blocking it? And those disgusting bugs just flew out from here. There might be even more bugs inside. Those bugs might only be a small part."

Although Nangong Qian couldn't see the insects clearly, she was certain that the smell in the air was unpleasant and came from when the insects flew out.

What good can an insect that smells bad be?

"The passage leading down is behind us. You guessed right, there will probably be a lot of bugs there. But are you sure you want to go down?" Jing Li thought for a moment and then told Nangong Qian, "Lin Zishan is down there."

She gave a hint.

If her guess is correct, Lin Zishan's body is harboring the Gu King.

She hadn't calculated the specific divination result beforehand; she could only understand Lin Zishan's current situation: pain, sorrow, and a deathly aura, showing no signs of life. She wasn't dead, but she was practically dead.

Upon hearing Jing Li mention Lin Zishan, Nangong Qian's face turned deathly pale.

She had been mentally preparing herself and had thought of many ways to face Lin Zishan.

But at this moment, she was still nervous.

Even someone as kind as Shanzi found these insects disgusting, let alone the most timid Shanzi among them.

After a moment's thought, Nangong Qian said without hesitation, "Boss, let's go in!"

Her eyes held certainty.

She has a positive and upbeat demeanor, living like a little sun.

Jing Li glanced at her casually, a slight smile playing on her lips. Her gaze was gentle, rippling with emotion. It had been so long, so very long since she had looked like that...

A strange feeling began to take root in my heart.

Be a good person!

Nangong Qian saw Jing Li make a beautiful hand seal, and then utter a single word, "Break!"

It felt like the air currents were moving wildly.

In an instant, an unpleasant smell filled the entire room.

The gust of air almost blinded her, and it took a long time for the intense convection to subside.

When she opened her eyes, she was greeted by a dimly lit space.

It was pitch black inside, as if the entire wall was covered in black paint. Even the light shining through the window from three meters away seemed to be absorbed by it, making it impossible to see anything inside.

"Walk carefully and don't speak loudly."

Jing Li spoke up to remind him.

Nangong Qian responded softly, "Okay, I understand."

She cautiously observed the situation inside, when suddenly she caught sight of something on the wall, which startled her so much that she almost screamed. She covered her mouth tightly.

"!!!"

It wasn't her imagination; the wall was indeed black.

However, instead of being painted black, the walls were covered with black insects, not just one layer, but a dense mass of insects clinging to the walls, layer upon layer.

The color of the wall is no longer visible.

"Boss—"

She whispered and drew out her words, trying to pull Jingli along, but found that the person beside her had already walked two meters away, so she quickly followed.

She looked at the insect closely, still frightened.

"Go, and keep quiet, or you'll become their host."

Jingli turned her head and reminded her again.

To be honest, she was also very surprised when she first came in. This place was even more serious than she had expected. She had never seen such a scene even ten thousand years ago.

Nangong Qian nodded again; she didn't dare to speak at all.

The ghost general behind him was floating in the air, appearing to have nothing to do with him at all.

Insects don't care about ghosts, so these insects are completely irrelevant to him.

Nangong Qian followed Jing Li closely, walking down a long corridor. Fortunately, there were no insects on the walls, and she could barely see the environment of the corridor. At the end of the corridor was the elevator.

elevator!

underground!
