When he was near the center of the ruins, Tang Zhen encountered another sneak attack by dozens of insect-men.
This kind of insect man is not only extremely fast, but also has special abilities. There is even a terrible toxin on its blade arm. If it is contaminated with it, the whole body will gradually become paralyzed.
But when facing Tang Zhen, these terrifying insect men did not have any advantage. They were often split into two pieces by Tang Zhen after three or two rounds!
The difference in strength between the two is not just a tiny bit!
As for the invisible giant bugs, as well as some bugs that spit out bone spurs and venom, he killed nearly a hundred of them, leaving behind them full of bug remains along the way.
In the process of continuous killing, Tang Zhen finally discovered the secret of the silent appearance of the insects.
It turns out that these bugs were teleported by a mysterious force, and there was no energy fluctuation during the teleportation. This is why Tang Zhen was unable to detect the bugs at all.
But as long as these bugs appear, they can no longer hide Tang Zhen's senses, and the final result will be to be killed by him with a single knife!
But Tang Zhen was full of curiosity about this special power that could teleport bugs, so he kept attracting bugs to appear, and then took the opportunity to study this special power.
Tang Zhen's plan succeeded. In order to kill him, the insects kept appearing one after another.
As a result, when Tang Zhen was about to reach the center of the ruins, because there were too many bugs killed, no matter how he tried to attract the bugs, there was no response.
Those bugs seemed to have given up chasing him and allowed him to approach the center of the ruins!
Tang Zhen tried a few more times, and after seeing that the insects really refused to appear again, he gave up the attempt with a look of unwillingness and continued to approach the center of the ruins.
Not long after this time, he came to a huge building and looked up carefully.
The appearance of this building is similar to that of an ancient palace. The surface is covered with complex and gorgeous patterns. It can be seen that a lot of effort must have been spent on its construction.
However, the materials used in this building were only very ordinary items, which made Tang Zhen feel very disappointed.
Based on what he saw and heard along the way, Tang Zhen has every reason to believe that this place is very similar to the mission world opened when Lou Cheng was promoted, and it is very likely that there are one or several Lou Cheng ruins!
After having this idea in his mind, Tang Zhen has been looking for possible ruins of Loucheng, but he found nothing along the way.
This result made Tang Zhen very confused. Was his guess wrong? There were no ruins of the building city here?
After thinking for a moment, Tang Zhen stepped into the building in front of him and soon disappeared into the darkness.
"Wow!"
There was a violent shaking, and the bricks and stones next to the giant building continued to fall, and then huge insects crawled out from under the ruins and gathered around them, blocking the exit of the building.
In addition to these giant insects, hundreds of the insect-men killed by Tang Zhen appeared at one time. Some of the insect-men looked very special, and they were all forms that Tang Zhen had never seen before.
After they appeared, they also did not enter the building, but stayed outside with the giant bugs.
If you observe these bugs carefully, you will find that they seem to be full of fear of this building and will never dare to take a step closer. There is also a trace of fanaticism in the eyes that originally showed no emotion.
At this time, the giant building has been completely surrounded. Any monk who wants to enter or exit will have to pay an extremely heavy price!
Tang Zhen didn't know what was happening outside, but as he went deeper, he was attracted by the strange things in the building.
Originally, he was very curious as to why there were no bones in the ruins, but it was not until he entered the building that he knew where the bones had gone.
Inside this huge building, there were actually thick piles of corpses and bones, so many that it was impossible to count them!
The bones looked clean, with no traces of flesh and blood left at all, and there were signs of severe corrosion, most likely excrement after digestion.
In addition to the corpses piled on the ground, there are countless hanging objects on the top of the building, which look like dried egg-shaped objects piled together.
They are piled up layer after layer, looking like inverted stalactites, almost touching the bones on the ground.
The building space, which was dozens of meters high, was completely filled with corpses and other things. They blocked Tang Zhen's path like a criss-crossing tangle of teeth, forcing Tang Zhen to take a detour.
At the same time, an indescribable rancid smell permeated the building, forcing him to take out the underwater breathing insects and cover his mouth and nose directly to block the smell.
After traveling a certain distance, Tang Zhen found that the sea of bones in front of him began to sink, and at the same time, a deep underground passage appeared in front of him.
Those white bones were solidified by some kind of mucus, so they were not scattered, so that the passage was surrounded by pale bones, as if something had drilled directly in from here!
Tang Zhen glanced at the passage and found a large amount of blood dripping on the bones. It had not been there for a long time. Perhaps the Loucheng monks who were killed by the giant insects were dragged into this cave that led to the underground.
But why were there no traces of any movement found along the way? Could it be that those corpses were also transported here?
Tang Zhen stared at the cave entrance for a few seconds, then stepped into it.
But as soon as he took a step forward, he saw a large number of green light spots suddenly appear in the entrance of the cave, with a cold and cruel look, looking at Tang Zhen who was walking towards him from a distance.
After a slight pause in his steps, Tang Zhen picked up the soul-eating knife in his hand and stepped forward without any hesitation.
There were bursts of sound piercing the air, and then insects covered in silver carapace and looking like they were made of metal swarmed out and rushed in front of Tang Zhen in the blink of an eye.
Tang Zhen slashed out with his knife and cut off the silver bug at the front. He was surprised to find that the inside of the bug's body was no different from metal.
With the sharpness of the soul-eating knife, coupled with Tang Zhen's terrifying power, it could only barely split the insect's body, which shows how hard it is!
And what surprised Tang Zhen the most was that the ever-present black flame on the Soul-Eating Knife suddenly disappeared when it came into contact with the insect's body, thus greatly reducing the power of the Soul-Eating Knife.
If the Soul-Eating Knife itself hadn't been hard enough, it might have been broken by the blow just now!
