Chapter 2: The Sea of Worms

It's a strange world.

Traveling through the half moon, the daily life of the cold sky clouds, most of the time hiding in this dark and narrow tree hole, watching the waves of beasts on the stone ground outside surge, and staged bloody fights in this turn, it is even more crazy and cruel than the great migration of African savannah animals in the previous life......

The hole in the tree where they were hiding was originally a natural crack in the root of the giant tree, the hole that he and the nurse could hardly get into, and the hole was carved out of stone by the nurse for several years, and now it can barely accommodate two or three people.

There was nothing in the cave except a few stones, a piece of bark, and some fruit that had been picked up.

Such a place is not even a refuge, and Han Tianyun and the nurse have to hide in it for more than a day.

Normally, this terrifying beast tide would last for almost the next evening before it completely subsided.

Then, after a night of calm, in the early morning of the third day, a terrible thunderstorm would come as promised, and after receiving the thunder and lightning quenching, he could only continue to hide back in the tree hollow and continue this strange cycle.

He had also done some exploration and thought about taking the opportunity to leave this hellish place.

But the location of this big tree is really strange.

Centered on the tree, about 200 meters beyond the shade of the tree, there is a green meadow, which surrounds the tree in a concentric circle, which seems to be a man-made landscape.

Then at the end of the meadow, the black-pressed forest is connected to the east, south, and north, and the mere glance can be depressing.

Not to mention that after every thunderstorm, waves of beast tides will pour out from meadows and forests......

For safety, Han Tianyun did not dare to enter the forest for the time being.

Only to the west of the big tree, there is a white marble paved path that leads through a long meadow to the cold pool under the waterfall.

So far, the scope of his exploration is still within the meadow range, and the farthest distance from the big tree is to go to the stone platform by the cold pond to receive the thunder and lightning quenching.

But what was more speechless was that Han Tianyun walked all over the meadow and only picked up a few stones and half a wooden stick.

Even the bark was broken off from the roots of the giant tree.

It seems that if you want to get more, you have to go into the forest.

But Han Tianyun decided to observe for a while longer, find out the laws of some beast tides, and then take action.

As for the weird thunder and lightning quenching body, it was the nurse who moved her body with her hands a few years ago, took him to quench the body, and told him in sign language that only by accepting the baptism of thunder and lightning can he open up the meridians and acupoints in the body, so that the body can finally store spiritual energy, so as to embark on the path of a monk.

It turns out that this is actually a world of spiritual energy revival and immortal cultivation and enlightenment!

This is also his pitiful knowledge of the world.

But just stepping into the threshold of cultivation, you have to go through the thunderstorm, isn't it too cheating?

In the memory of his earthlings, this is simply an act of death!

But for the current body, the terrifying experience of electric current swimming and sparks flying through his body not only did not threaten his life, but made people feel very comfortable.

Could it be that the people of this world are not afraid of thunder and lightning?

Instead, you can use the power of thunder and lightning to embark on the path of cultivation?

It's a pity that the nurse is not a monk, she doesn't know anything about cultivation knowledge, she only knows that if she wants to practice, she needs to stimulate her body with the power of thunder and lightning, and what specific methods are there and how to temper her body, all of which can only rely on Han Tianyun's eyes to blacken and explore by herself.

In the past half month, Han Tianyun has also tried to dig out some knowledge about this world from her, or the past, but he has found nothing.

It's speechless!

"Nurse, think about it again, how did you bring me to this wilderness and live under this big tree?"

Han Tianyun was busy for a long time, and he usually ate fruits, and his body was inevitably a little weak, panting for breath, looking at the white-haired witch-like nurse in the corner, and asked unwillingly.

The nurse just smiled bitterly and shook her head, turned around and continued to grind the hard cave wall with stones.

Han Tianyun is completely helpless!

Shalala......

Listening to the rustle of the rain on this spring night, Han Tianyun knew the first wave of beast tide...... Here it comes.

Looking out through the gap between the bark and the hole, I saw countless earthworms, centipedes, knotworms, ants and other insects scurrying up from the meadow to the rocky ground, swarming towards the scattered golden fruits.

In just two or three minutes, there were thousands of insects climbing up the rocky ground, and the ground was like a surging tide.

After a while, the insects quickly entangled and tore together for the golden fruits on the ground.

The whole stone field was instantly plunged into a terrifying battle, and the hissing, squeaking, and sizzling sounds of various insects were mixed together, making people inexplicably give birth to a chilling chill.

I saw countless reptiles pounce on the fruit one after another, and the black and red centipedes raised their heads and spat venom wildly, causing the insects that approached them to instantly turn into pools of dark green water.

After a while, the stone floor was already covered with corpses, and colorful juice smeared the ground......

But these were not enough to stop the insects that followed, they surged forward, the insects that ate the fruit were bitten and eaten by the ones that were not eaten, the ones in front were bitten to death by those who were behind, and a cruel battle with no way back was staged on the stone ground.

In these disgusting images, Han Tianyun notices a group of black ants, which appear to behave in an extremely unusual way.

This group of ants has a long upper jaw, coupled with considerable intelligence, I saw them lined up, and a frog-sized ant king was guarded by the arch, which seemed to be disciplined and powerful.

As soon as this group of ants appeared, in these unintelligent insect seas, they were suddenly like tigers entering a flock of sheep, invincible.

Even those poisonous centipedes and other poisonous insects are vulnerable to their attacks in a measured manner.

Three days ago, Han Tianyun had also seen the existence of this ant colony, and the ant king in the center at that time did not seem to be as big as it is today.

Han Tianyun remembered that at the end of that day, only the ant king dragged his injured leg and fled back to the meadow before the next wave of beast tides.

Han Tianyun's attention couldn't help but be attracted by this group of ants, watching them sweep all the way, there was a sense of immediacy like watching a movie.

There's no way, in such a difficult living environment, the only person around me is still a mute, so I have to find some fun for myself to live, right?

More than ten minutes later, the ant colony was invincible and came to the stone ground more than 20 zhang away from the root of the tree.

"It's ...... Coming at me?"

Han Tianyun felt flustered inexplicably, and from the direction of the ant colony, he smelled a hint of danger.

"Can they smell these fruits?" Han Tianyun turned his head to look at the golden fruits piled on the ground, and secretly guessed in his heart.

At this moment, a golden fruit on the right side of the stone ground was discovered by the ant colony, and they were seen to open and close vertically and horizontally, turning around and heading towards the fruit.

"Phew!" Han Tianyun exhaled, praying in his heart that they would turn around and not come this way again.

Soon, the ant colony killed all the bugs around the fruit and divided into two teams to take turns eating the fruit.

The huge ant king bit down on a piece of flesh and ate it unusually sweetly, and Han Tianyun could even faintly hear the crunch sound in its mouth.

Countless insects poured towards the fruit, but the colony was extremely powerful, and it did not give other insects any chance to get close.

After a while, the colony had eaten all the fruit, and turned around again, heading towards the hollow of the tree.

“......”

Han Tianyun only felt his scalp explode.

In this half-month, he was now experiencing the fifth beast tide, but this was the first time he felt danger in the first wave of worm seas.

Three days ago, in the midst of the beast tide, a small fiery red monkey-like beast came to his cave and scratched the bark with its claws, and he ran away with a stone.

Six days ago, there was also a lion-like beast that stuck its sharp claws into its hole......

But those were just before the end of the beast tide, and today these ants ...... He wasn't prepared at all!

Obviously, these ants are extremely sensitive to the taste of golden fruits, and the end point of their headline is the hollow in the tree where Han Tianyun is located.

"They must not be allowed to come in, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable!" Seeing the ant colony getting closer and closer, Han Tianyun's hair stood on end, and he grabbed a palm-sized stone and held it in his hand, with a resolute look in his eyes.

At this moment, a group of strange spiders appeared on the rocky ground to the left of the cloud tree hole in the cold sky, and crossed the front of the ant colony.

It was a group of red and yellow, colorful spiders, the size of pigeons, with red silk glittering between them, and there were about fifty or sixty of them, and they looked like they were standing at the top of the food chain of the insect colony.

Without any nonsense, the group of spiders launched a fierce attack on the ant colony.

I saw them lined up in two lines, spitting out red spider silk towards the ant colony, and the originally invincible ant colony was suddenly chaotic.

The huge ant king waved its huge jaws like pincers, crackling and smashing the spider silk that came to the front one after another, but the ant colony under it did not have such strength, and countless ants were instantly pierced by the spider silk and strung into a string.

This battle ended quickly, and although the powerful ant king behaved like a martial arts master, in front of so many spiders, he had no choice but to retreat.

It's just that Han Tianyun clearly felt that it stared in its direction before retreating, and in that cold compound eye, it seemed to be full of all kinds of strange emotions......

At the same time, the moment he looked at it, a deadly pressure hit the cold sky clouds like a tide, making him feel bored in his heart, and his body was as uncomfortable as if he had weighed a thousand catties.

"Whew!" Seeing it turn around and flee, Han Tianyun couldn't help but turn around, sat down with his back against the bark, and let out a long sigh of relief.

After a while, the boredom in his heart gradually dissipated, and his body was much lighter.

Sting!

At this moment, a hole was suddenly pierced in the bark of the tree against which Han Tianyun was leaning, and a slender stinger instantly sank into his back.

"Ahh Han Tianyun screamed miserably, endured the severe pain, took out half of the wooden stick from the shadows, pressed it against the bark, and then slowly fell forward and fell to the ground.

The poison outside tasted the blood of Han Tianyun, and when he heard his shout again, he was immediately excited, and the long needles pricked and thrust wildly into the bark.

If it is allowed to pierce the bark so wildly, it is estimated that it will not be long before the bark will fall apart.

At this critical juncture, the nurse finally turned around, pressed the bark with her left hand, picked up the wooden stick on the bark with her right hand, and pricked it with the needle.

With a snap, the long needle puncture snapped instantly, and after hearing the squeak of the poison outside, there was no sound for a while.

The nurse put the bark back on the tree, and prostrate herself to look at the cold clouds on the ground.

It was only two or three breaths, and Han Tianyun's entire back had become black, and a fishy smell emanated from the part where the needle had pierced.

The nurse hurriedly turned the cold clouds over, but saw that his face had turned a miserable green, the blood veins under the skin of his body had turned blue-black, and a layer of frost began to cover his limbs, and the temperature in the air began to drop rapidly.

This...... What kind of poison is so terrifying?
