The first thousand three hundred and seventy-two chapters are born to be supreme
"They are about to leave, Gu Chen, should we grab them?"
Fatty Qian saw that the swarm of insects had formed, and they all flapped their wings and left, anxiously asking the stunned Gu Chen.
Gu Chen came back to his senses, his mood had stabilized, and he said, "Let them go."
"Let them go? There are so many treasures, are you willing to let them go?"
"The three of us join forces to attack, and we will definitely be able to keep them all!"
Fatty Qian couldn't bear to part with those storage rings, and even the Xuanzu of the Qi family was a little moved.
He had been with the dead monks these days and knew exactly what treasures they might have obtained.
Gu Chen didn't want to give up the treasure, but he knew that there was something not simple behind the insect swarm, and it was definitely not the right time to alert the enemy.
"Let's catch up and see where they are going." Gu Chen said with twinkling eyes.
"You mean their nests may contain more treasures?"
Fatty Qian had a very active mind and immediately thought of more possibilities, giving a thumbs up to Gu Chen. "You are so smart, it seems we are going to make a fortune this time!"
Gu Chen smiled bitterly. If he really arrived at the insect swarm's nest, it would be one thing whether he would have the courage to break in.
The swarm of insects in the distance flew away through the air, and the three of them quickly followed.
Before leaving, Gu Chen took a look at the sky-devouring demon butterflies and found that after the silver beetles left, the butterflies began to eat the bodies of their companions they left behind.
Silver beetles devour other species, but not their own kind.
Seeing the butterfly swarm excitedly eating away at the corpses of a large number of silver beetles, and more and more coming to invite friends, Gu Chen felt inexplicably relieved.
…
The three of them stayed behind the swarm of silver beetles, always keeping a certain distance and being very vigilant.
The insect swarm had an obvious destination and did not stop along the way. Wherever it passed, the beasts retreated.
An hour later, the insect swarm came to a long and narrow rift valley. The valley was filled with miasma. After the insect swarm flew in, they could no longer see the specific situation.
"It seems like this is the nest of the insect swarm." Fatty Qian looked eager to try.
When he thought about it, since these ferocious insects also knew how to hunt for treasures, based on their size, the valley would probably have been filled with mountains of gold and silver.
"roar--"
Just as the fat man was about to move forward, an earth-shattering roar suddenly came from the valley.
This roar sounded familiar, but at this moment, there was clearly a bit of anger and panic in the voice!
"This is the voice of the old turtle!"
Xuanzu of the Qi family recognized it and couldn't help but let out a breath of cold air.
What happened to make the arrogant old turtle so panicked!
Gu Chen also felt moved for a while, as his guess was being confirmed step by step.
"Then the old turtle is inside? This is not good. If he dies inside, how will we leave the secret place then?"
Fatty Qian was startled. The roar of the old turtle was obviously not good. He suddenly felt that the place ahead was not a treasure but a dangerous place.
Gu Chen remained silent and carefully looked around the mouth of the valley, and found some residual blood stains on the ground.
"This is the blood of Kui Niu. It seems that the old turtle chased Kui Niu and finally ran into it, and then an accident happened." Gu Chen looked grim.
"Sir, what you mean is that it was the old turtle who set the trap, but in the end he was plotted against?" Xuanzu of the Qi family showed a bit of fear in his eyes.
"Then who plotted against Old Turtle? Someone from Lei County?" Fatty Qian asked casually.
"How could the people from Lei County command the swarm of insects, the swarm of snakes, and even the Kui ox? I'm afraid the person who plots against Old Turtle is the strongest native of this secret land!"
Cold sweat broke out on the back of Xuanzu of the Qi family, and his voice trembled a little. "Such a high level of wisdom is completely beyond our imagination. We think we are the predators in this chaotic secret place, but maybe we have been secretly treated as prey by others!"
Xuanzu of the Qi family was very vigilant, and Gu Chen could understand his fear at the moment.
The chaotic creatures growing in this secret place are naturally powerful. If they had extraordinary wisdom, it would be a disaster for them.
Gu Chen knew more details and became more fearful of the mysterious creatures in the valley.
"Then what should we do now? Is it possible to turn around and run away?" Fatty Qian also realized the seriousness of the matter.
"Where can we escape? The boundary crossing talisman needed to leave the secret place is in the hands of the old turtle." Xuanzu of the Qi family said with a bitter smile.
Both of them finally looked at Gu Chen, it was up to him to decide this matter.
"Let's find out what's going on inside first."
Gu Chen exhaled a breath of fresh air and transformed into a clone that was exactly the same as him.
The clone nodded towards Gu Chen, then merged into the earth, turned into a shadow, and slipped into the valley mouth silently.
Fatty Qian hesitated for a moment, but seeing that Gu Chen's clone had successfully gotten into the valley mouth, he said no more.
Gu Chen slipped into the valley with extreme caution.
The valley here is broken and long. It is a criss-crossing rift zone with countless forks.
The miasma in the valley was not strong. Gu Chen looked around and listened, trying to figure out where the old turtle was.
Unfortunately, after the old turtle roared, there was no more movement, as if the world had evaporated, which made Gu Chen very uneasy.
The long and narrow rift valley revealed an unspeakable sense of oppression, and Gu Chen even had the illusion that he was being watched.
He observed the traces on the ground, and one after another found the blood spilled by the Kui Niu, and followed its footprints deeper into the rift valley.
After turning a few forks, Gu Chen's expression suddenly changed.
The valley ahead is filled with the bones of monsters and beasts, and the ground is covered with layers of bone powder. I don’t know how many years of killing it took to create a place like this.
Gu Chen walked carefully and found some silver insect pupae hanging upside down under the bones of some giant beasts.
There happened to be a larva struggling to get out of one of the pupae. Gu Chen saw that its appearance was very similar to the silver beetle from before.
"It seems that this is the nest of the silver beetle."
Gu Chen murmured and walked quickly through the valley.
He passed through many canyons one after another, and the bones of monsters were everywhere. The bone powder left by the weathering seemed to have covered the valley with a layer of snow, making the place feel gloomy even though it was broad daylight.
Corresponding to the sea of bones, Gu Chen saw more insect pupae. In the end, the number of insect pupae was simply densely packed.
If all the pupae here hatched, how many ferocious silver beetles would be born?
Ten million, fifty million, or hundreds of millions?
Gu Chen's expression became more and more solemn as he gradually approached the center of the rift zone.
When he stepped into a valley again, suddenly, a creepy breath came straight from him!
There was clearly nothing in front of him, but in his perception, it seemed like there was a pair of ruthless eyes staring at him indifferently!
It seemed to stand at the pinnacle of all species, like a supreme king, looking down at him with noble and teasing eyes!
Daojun?
A thought flashed through Gu Chen's mind, but he quickly rejected this guess.
This is not the pressure of Dao Lord, but the people who are secretly watching him are indeed standing at the pinnacle of thousands of races.
He was born to be a supreme being, and he has tasted the coldness of high places.
He has been lonely in this secret place of chaos for endless years, and finally he is looking forward to an interesting challenger!
