The sun shines on the sea of clouds, and the deadly killer overlooks the land.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When you suddenly lose weight in the air at a height of tens of meters and start to free fall, what do you want to say at the last moment of your life?

Well, no matter what they thought in their hearts, in fact, even if most people managed to open their mouths in the violent shock airflow, at most they could only shout hoarsely, just like the tidal knot that was pulling the ropeway vine down with it at the moment......

"Ah......h

The scene in front of him rotated rapidly, and Xijie only felt dazzled for a while, and he didn't have time to distinguish the scene passing in front of him, and his mind was completely blank.

In a trance, the ropeway vine that was tightly clasped by the tide knot with its claws seemed to have hooked something halfway, and a huge resistance suddenly appeared on the vine, quickly slowing down the falling speed. However, it was short-lived, and regardless of whether the object that was hooked in the middle of the road was a protruding rock or a tree on a cliff, it was clear that it did not last long before it was completely defeated.

With the last resistance gone, gravity from the entire planet once again gained the upper hand, and the tidal knot had even reached the bottom of the canyon before it could even react from the continuous ups and downs.

Bang!

The moment the crash sounded, the entire field of vision was completely plunged into endless darkness.

……

A blinding golden ray of sunlight shone down from the sky above, illuminating a large area of the vicinity. Below, whether it is a slightly undulating plain or an area full of peaks and valleys, there is a bright aura that makes you feel a little dazzling.

The immaculate white world spreads out endlessly, and this is not a static picture, but a constantly fluctuating, completely unpredictable dynamic scene, which looks as if you are in the palace of heaven.

This is not really the earth, this is the clouds high in the sky.

When viewed from above, the clouds of another land appear to be bright white, but this does not mean that there is only a single white color in this world. If you look closely enough, you can faintly see the small dots coming and going in the clouds, big or small, fast or slow.

Whoosh...... Whoosh......

An ellipsoid, which looked bulging, was one of these small black dots, and its pale gray rough surface was dotted with holes of various sizes and shapes, and the strange sound of one by one sounded like the heavy pant of some kind of beast.

It flies in the sky, and no matter how the wind changes, it always maintains a fairly stable altitude, which proves that it is actually a creature that can fly with self-control rather than passively being blown by the wind, and the gas is quickly pumped and ejected between the holes, maintaining the overall stability of the flight.

As you can imagine, this creature must have a bulging body containing a lot of lighter gas to provide it with enough lift to levitate, but most people will not be impressed by its round appearance at first sight, but will definitely feel a chill in their hearts immediately.

The reason is simple, the underside of the round creature looks like a ball of leather that has been pressed down the middle, except that on the folded pale gray skin, there are dozens of smooth and flat transparent crystals, and inside these crystals, there are many strange blood streaks...... Eyeball.

It is not a structure with round pupils wrapped in the whites of human eyes, nor is it a demonic vertical pupil like many beasts, or even an eye extending from the long handle of an insect, but a unique and terrifying structure that has never been seen before.

Inside the transparent crystal, which is very the outside, is a flexible and flexible protein film, which is a transparent jelly-like substance with a thickness, forming a completely enclosed small spherical space. The interior of the space should be filled with transparent tissue fluid, as a dangling, completely independent eyeball except for a few thin nerve wires is suspended in these tissue fluids, and the surface is covered with tiny cobweb-like blood vessels.

That's right, it's like an eyeball specimen in a laboratory that has been removed and placed alone in a preservative, staring coldly at the outside world with dead eyes.

Occasionally, a gust of wind temporarily blew open the thick clouds below, revealing a slight gap, allowing these eyes suspended high in the sky to gaze at the vast earth beneath their feet.

Although it may not look like it, the creature's eyesight far exceeds that of humans in terms of detail and color discrimination, and they can even see what is happening on the earth above the clouds.

Suddenly, a stomat on the side of the creature opened, and a stream of air erupted with the squeezing of the sac-like body, canceling out the thrust of the wind...... It actively controlled its body and stayed in place.

It has no eyelids, so it is impossible to judge its attention from its open and closed eyes, but by observation and the slightest association, we can still believe that the creature has stopped moving because it has found something on the earth, and it is now engrossed in looking below.

After observing for a while, it seemed that something had finally been determined, and the creature's body trembled, and dense raised dots appeared on the sac-like surface, as if it had been magnified many times more than an unknown number of times, making the scalp tingle.

It's in the metamorphosis...... Yes, it will soon become apparent as the process progresses. The creature stayed in place high in the air, and a tapered tip with a white and smooth surface slowly protruded from the depression below, and the unique lines made it look as if it had been carefully polished and carved marble.

The airbag is constantly stretched and compressed by the surface muscles, and only then can it maintain its stable position in the complex atmospheric flow at high altitude. Eventually, as the tapered tip continued to extend outward, several eyeballs on the innermost adventitia suddenly broke away from the ugly skin covered with tumors......

The transparent crystals on the edge of the eyeball are not distributed on the capsule at all, but are embedded in the surface of the conical tip, but they were previously covered by the cystic epidermis!

The revealing white conical shell is as beautiful as the horns of a legendary unicorn, but the floating eyeballs embedded in its surface speak to the fact that this creature is not from the legendary peaceful fantasy species, but a ruthless killer who lives under the laws of natural selection.

Eventually, the almost earth-shattering metamorphosis process was over, and the sturdy shell that was completely naked made the creature look less like the same species as it had just looked. The elongated, cone-shaped shell of the straight-shelled nautilus reflects a more dazzling light in the sunlight than the clouds below, while the ellipsoidal air sac, which originally served as the main body, is completely transferred above the end of the cone, connecting to the inside of the cone through soft body tissues.

The overall appearance is like a dangling balloon on the clouds, and a slender cone hanging from the balloon that is pointed upside down to the ground. The white shell at the tip of the cone is dotted with transparent crystals, and inside are dense suspended eyeballs.

The shape is very strange, but if you look closely from above, you can faintly see the round mouth that can be opened at any time in the gap between the end of the cone and the air sac, and the sharp teeth that are almost connected to the inside prove that this terrifying-looking creature is indeed a predator that is good at hunting other creatures...... And not a mild-mannered vegetarian.

Although there is only a faint connection between the eyes suspended in the liquid and the jelly-like soft body around them, there are some tiny musculature that can control the direction of the eyeballs, and it is clear that a large number of eyeballs are staring closely at the ground below that occasionally emerges in the gaps in the clouds. If you are in a casual state, most of these eyeballs are actually chaotic under the action of inertia and gravity, and frankly speaking, there are quite a few eyeballs that look at the transparent lens completely backwards with the pupils facing inward.

Clearly, the creature was examining what it meant, and had shown some sort of apparent intent to attack...... Prey.

Perhaps the civilized race will worship the warriors who charge bravely on the frontal battlefield, and the image of heroic domineering is indeed easy to infect others, but there are no warriors in real nature, even the tigers on the earth who are known as the king of the forest are not warriors, and the predators in the real nature have only one profession to describe: killers.

Stay out of the enemy's line of sight, keep the enemy in your sight, watch carefully and calmly, prepare for everything in advance, and then when you actually attack, you will be able to decide the victory with one blow.

The enemy is on the ground, it's in the sky, so shouldn't it start contracting the airbags to expel suspended gases to gradually descend in height?

Wrong! On the contrary, instead of contracting the air sac, the creature opened its air vents and quickly pumped its air after striking an attack stance downward, causing what looked like a large spherical virus to inflate rapidly, and its height continued to increase......

The gaps in the clouds closed again, turning into a tight barrier of opaque light, but all the corresponding coordinates were firmly remembered by the creature's small brain, and when the altitude climbed dramatically, it finally began to act.

The strong muscles were quickly squeezed, and the round air sac was squeezed into a shape similar to a cone, and the hole at the end quickly opened, and the gases that were under intense pressure gushed out at this only vent!

Fall...... No! It's a sprint! The intermittent wheezing sound turned into a sharp scream, like a sharp blade piercing the air blocking the front, the white tip shell firmly under the clouds, and under the dual impetus of the rapid gushing gas from the tail of the air bag and the gravitational acceleration, it pierced through the clouds like a real missile!

Seen from above, a white cloud had finally revealed its true face after a sharp drop in elevation, a dark cloud so gray that it almost completely obscured the sun, and it rushed out of the dark cloud, stabbing with a sharp whistling towards the dead gray earth below.

A terrifying killer from above the Nine Heavens, the Extreme Snail Horn.
