As the City Lord's words fell, a slowly rotating vortex suddenly appeared in the sky. It was not particularly large when it first emerged, but it rapidly expanded. In the blink of an eye, the vortex covered a radius of several hundred feet.
Looking up, it seemed as though a hole had been torn open in the sky.
No one knew where the vortex led, but faint, strange disturbances came from within it.
Spirit Bodies throughout Immortal Yuan City raised their heads and looked up.
Under countless watchful eyes, an Insect Race creature crawled out of the vortex. It was three zhang long, covered in a shell, with four legs and a triangular head, resembling an enormous mantis. It clung near the vortex, its complex compound eyes reflecting the city below.
Rustling sounds arose as a second mantis-like Insect Race creature appeared, followed by a third, a fourth... In an instant, they filled the heavens and covered the earth.
It was as though a floodgate had been opened. Countless Insect Race creatures of varying sizes and shapes poured from the rotating vortex.
In only ten breaths, the skies and ground near the vortex were swarming with the Insect Race, while even more continued charging out of it.
"Kill!" Furious roars rang out as multicolored lights swept in from every direction. One powerful Insect Race creature after another was pulverized into bloody pulp before it could run more than a few steps, yet they surged forward one after another in an endless stream, as though they could neither be killed nor cut down. The surviving creatures trampled over their dead companions' corpses and charged ahead madly. Their broken bodies rushed before the Spirit Bodies, opening their mandibles to bite and swinging their clawed limbs. One Spirit Body after another soon dimmed.
