The Colossal Creature Devouring the Insect Swarm
Bai Qiuran and Tang Ruowei followed behind the Insect Swarm, watching these frightened birds flee aimlessly in a certain direction.
"My control over them has dropped to a minimum."
Tang Ruowei whispered, "These insects only react to commands to flee now; it seems this is a fear etched deep into the genetic code of their entire race."
"What on earth makes them so terrified...?"
Bai Qiuran asked curiously, "These insects look like they witnessed the entire family being murdered."
"Maybe it really was just the whole family that was killed, or maybe the entire race was massacred."
Tang Ruowei controlled the Empress's clone, and she also experienced the unforgettable fear left in this body. However, since she did not have the mindset of an insect, her experience was not as profound as that of other insects, nor did she lose control like them.
The two trailed behind the Insect Swarm, chasing for a while, before Tang Ruowei suddenly stopped.
"Huh?"
"What's wrong?"
Seeing her surprised expression, Bai Qiuran asked.
"I can't sense the insects at the very front anymore..."
Tang Ruowei's expression changed.
"No, there is something, they encountered something, and this thing is rapidly annihilating them!"
"Let's chase after them and see!"
Bai Qiuran reached out and grabbed Tang Ruowei, summoned Clear Autumn Waters, and rode his sword forward at full speed.
The two transformed into a streak of blue light, traversing the Void. Guided by Tang Ruowei, they passed countless swarming Insect Race and headed towards the place where the insects had vanished on a massive scale.
The insects, fleeing for their lives, had no intention of attacking Tang Ruowei and Bai Qiuran, who had revealed their true forms. They were still immersed in the shock of being stunned by that aura earlier.
Bai Qiuran advanced at full speed, and the two quickly arrived near the Void where the insects had disappeared. Bai Qiuran slowed down, and the two entered Spatial Fold to continue concealing themselves.
Is the Insect Race still disappearing?
Bai Qiuran flew slowly with Tang Ruowei in tow, he asked a question.
That's all for now.
Tang Ruowei sensed it for a moment and said, "My clone is quite far away now, and my sensory ability is somewhat weakened... Wait a minute!"
"What's wrong?"
Bai Qiuran asked.
Tang Ruowei closed her eyes and carefully sensed the situation before replying, "A large number of insects have returned from the front lines. They are in a panic, and my commands are ineffective, it's like..."
"It's like it sensed my presence, right?"
Bai Qiuran's expression turned serious.
"This is fantastic! We've run into the main character right now. Ruowei, be careful, let's go check ahead."
Where are the insects?
Tang Ruowei asked.
"Whatever, Tool Bug anyway."
Bai Qiuran hesitated for a moment.
"Try to get the Imperial Guard Bug to protect your Empress's body and leave. As for the rest of the Bugs, just let them fight each other."
"I'll give it a try. Those Imperial Guard Bug shouldn't disobey my orders..."
Tang Ruowei tried it out briefly, having her Empress Clone change the energy frequency of the transmitter and ordering the Imperial Guard Bug to protect it as it left. Fortunately, the Imperial Guard Bug had relatively large brains, and upon hearing the Empress's command, they didn't hesitate and flew over, surrounding Tang Ruowei's Empress Clone and protecting it as it flew upstream along the Void River.
"We succeeded. That clone contains my consciousness; it should find a place to lie dormant, and we can search for it later."
Tang Ruowei spoke, she gripped Bai Qiuran's clothes tightly.
"Sit tight, let's go see who this is that has scared the insects so much."
Bai Qiuran used his movement Magic Incantation to unleash Spatial Arts created from the Divine Power of Bai Xuxiang. His and Tang Ruowei's bodies suddenly flattened, then compressed into a line, and finally became an almost imperceptible black dot. Then, this black dot they became suddenly flew at an extremely fast speed in the direction from which the insects had fled back.
After flying for a while, the two soon encountered the Insect Swarm that had fled back. The Void was now filled with giant insects of all colors, a dark and dense mass, and they were all running at two hundred percent speed, fleeing for their lives.
The two of them, transformed into tiny specks, passed through the insects' bodies, piercing through the smallest pores on their carapaces and entering their bodies. Countless blue fluids flowed past them. The rule that Bai Qiuran had mastered through his magic, which Bai Xuxiang had used, was even more powerful than that that his daughter herself had used. The tiny specks that the two of them had transformed into were even smaller than the cells inside the insects. The two of them could clearly see the enormous insect cells, as large as celestial spheres, passing by them.
Then the tiny dot passes through the blood vessels and cavities of these insects, and then emerges from the carapace on the other side.
Using this method, the two ignored the dense Insect Swarm, passed through Insect Swarm, and arrived at the very end of the Insect Swarm.
As fate would have it, when the two arrived here, they happened to witness the creature that could inscribe the instinct of fear into the genetic code of insects once again making its move.
On the surface of the Void Sea, within the ocean formed by countless chaotic energies and storms, a colossal wave suddenly arose.
Huge waves erupted from the ocean, even pushing dozens of worlds far away. Those seemingly droplets on the crest of the waves were actually massive Energy Storm capable of easily annihilating a Fleet.
Giant waves surged continuously, and the Void Sea resembled the Vast Sea of the Ten Lands of Jiuzhou in the past, as if some Behemoths was lurking beneath it.
Then, an even larger splash erupted, and at the very center of the Energy Storm radiating in all directions, an unimaginable behemoth emerged from beneath the Void Sea.
This colossal creature had blue skin all over its body, and its surface seemed to be filled with illusory energy, yet it also appeared incredibly solid. On its body surface, there were also streams of light that shimmered like Stars.
Its head was enormous, even larger than the "Founder" of the Giant God Automaton. On its massive head, Tang Ruowei could only see a huge Black Hole. Bai Qiuran, whose eyesight was much better, could see two dark, round holes above the Black Hole.
These are probably the creature's eyes and mouth.
The creature burst forth from beneath the Void Sea, its mouth agape, the surface of the Void Sea just around its mouth. Then, this unimaginably enormous creature, like a predatory crocodile, remained in that position and swallowed the fleeing Insect Race whole.
It took a bite casually, but its mouth seemed to possess an incredibly powerful suction and devouring force. After it finished taking a bite and continued to dive, the fleeing insects had already been reduced by half.
