The stone fragments dispersed, revealing a vast cavernous dwelling before Qin Fengming.
His divine sense probed inside. In the enormous underground cavern, which stretched for hundreds of zhang, densely packed layers of white insect eggs covered the entire vast cave.
The white insect eggs looked crystalline and milky white, each one radiating a lustrous white glow that made them seem extremely strange.
A mere sweep of his gaze over the milky-white insect eggs left Qin Fengming standing there in a daze. Judging by their spread and volume, there were tens of billions, perhaps even over a hundred billion, of them.

Given the formidable reproductive ability of ant-like demon insects, without some means of restricting their numbers, they would inevitably overrun the place, making it difficult even for their own race to survive.
