As the River Styx receded, the mountain where Zode lived became taller and taller, and in the distance, between the mountains, a large area of land loomed from mountain to mountain. The air was getting hotter and hotter, and the dripping rain couldn't stop the heat. Even Zuode's strong insect body can't stand this terrible environment. Zode decided to wait for the River Styx to recede a little further before moving to another mountain - he had serious doubts that the peak at his feet was an active volcano.

The environment in the abyss is no joke, in this world of tens of thousands of levels, nearly one-third of the layers are completely incapable of living any creatures, not even demons. Landscapes such as volcanoes, deserts, and ice mounds are considered good environments, and dead places such as lava seas, poisonous swamps, and spatial rifts are not uncommon.

Zod couldn't afford to leave the mountain right now, even if it was a volcano about to erupt.

The River Styx was still sealed off, and even if more ground was exposed, it still couldn't leave the mountain's coverage with these intermittent stone mounds. Fortunately, relying on Zuo De's judgment, there is no possibility of such a huge mountain erupting in a short period of time. However, the current cave is indeed too hot, and Zode decides to find a new cave when he has the chance.

Due to the power of the River Styx, the closer you get to the River Styx, the faster the worm will evolve, and the more massive eggs revealed by the receding river, the beach at the foot of the mountain, near the River Styx, will always be the densest place for insect swarms and fiercest fights.

There aren't many abyssal worms on the mountain, and the swarms of worms that remain at the top of the mountain are either because of the newly hatched worms or because the treacherous terrain has blocked their way down the mountain. Occasionally, Zode can even see some unhatched eggs. However, these are no longer what Zod needs, and the beach densely covered with insect swarms at the bottom of the mountain is his hunting ground.

At this moment, a strange worm on the opposite wall attracted Zode's attention.

This is a rather steep hanging wall, with thousands of walls, and even the current Zuode, it is very dangerous to climb such a cliff.

And on top of such a cliff, a fat strange bug is winding up.

Accustomed to fangs and sharp teeth, ferocious abyssal worms, this guy who doesn't seem to have any skin or minions is extremely special.

The chubby worm-man stood up, and below the abdomen actually evolved two bloated leg-shaped hind limbs, which looked like an upright white radish.

The fat bug carefully moved on the cliff with two thick legs, and the strange thing was that some gaps that could not be crossed at all, whenever it stood over, there would always be some stone platforms for the fat bug to step on, as if the whole cliff was helping the bug.

The fat bug soon came to its destination, a small hollow crack in the rock, and there was actually an unhatched egg inside. The fat bug quickly climbed over, ripped open the sac, threw the larvae off the cliff, and began to gulp the eggs.

"Interesting guy...... , looks like an 'outsider'. ”

"Outsiders" is the name given by demons to intelligent beings from the outer planes who have a purpose in mind and have broken into the endless abyss.

The Endless Abyss, though notorious, has tens of thousands of levels and hides countless powers and riches. Every year, a large number of intelligent beings descend into the abyss, either for wealth, or for power, or for some other special purpose.

Curiously, the aliens who are able to move across dimensions are at least mid-level creatures, but very few of them descend into the abyss in the form of worms. As a weak creature at the bottom of the abyss, the mortality rate of the Abyssal Worm has always been as high as 99%.

For the time being, Zod doesn't want to come into contact with this guy who looks like an outsider, usually these outsiders are unruly guys, and contact in the worm stage may cause unexpected results.

However, Zod did take an interest in the bug, and Zod decided to set up his new nest nearby.

Leaving the cliff, Zode soon came to the foot of the mountain, and as the area of the land increased, more abyssal worms gathered here. These dense swarms looked like a large shaking dark cloud, crowding almost all corners of the foothills. Countless worms were killed and devoured, but more worms were added to it. Not only on the ground, but some special species have evolved various wings that can fly for short periods of time, so the sky is not a safe place.

In this never-ending battleground, some Abyssal Worms have emerged as the overlords of a small area, inflicting devastating blows on their own kind. Their sheer size, vast array of natural abilities, and endless greed make these rare worms the most fearsome of the most feared beings on the battlefield.

And Zuode's target is these special rare worms.

Being too large is not necessarily a good thing for the Abyssal Worms, and although they have obvious advantages for predation and confrontation in the early days, when the number of rare worms increases, these huge worms are always the first to be killed, and they are too eye-catching. The sheer size of the body also limits the flexibility of the body, and when encountering enemies of a certain strength, running away becomes a luxury.

Zuode, for example, likes to attack such prey.

Zuode picked a new prey, this is a guy who looks like a crab full of tentacles, the level is as high as level 7, and the armor has been strengthened to more than 80 points, it is a worm with high armor and high attack type. It was the size of seven or eight lefts, and it also had two huge chelicerae, and it was using these large pincers to hold the fleeing worms around it, and kept sending them into its mouth.

Zod jumped into the air, then glided into the large worm's inner circle of defense, avoiding the range of the most dangerous clash. Zode quickly slashed through various parts of the big worm's abdomen, looking for the creature for his weak spots.

Zuo De knew that the armor value did not mean that all parts of the body had such defensive capabilities, and there must be weak body parts. Zuode's plan was to find this weak link as quickly as possible, and then attack with all his might.

Zuode understands his strengths and weaknesses, and it is the most stupid to resist the attacks of these giant worms head-on, and hand-to-hand combat is Zuode's choice. In his previous life, Zode had also practiced some martial arts skills and knew how to exert his strength to maximize his damage.

The battle was soon over, and when Zod found the weak point of the big worm, then split its shell and smashed it inside, the outcome of the battle was no longer in doubt.

Carrying a claw, Zuo De glanced at the corpse of the giant insect that had been covered by the swarm with some pity. There are still many specialized parts on this crab-shaped worm, but Zuode can only take away one crab claw, and Zuode can't take the rest of the parts, so he has to cheapen those swarming worms.

On the way back, Zod noticed that the fat bug was still moving on the cliff, looking for possible eggs. Seeing that it was cautious and never approached the adult, Zuo De couldn't help but be a little disappointed: the Endless Abyss was a Shura field of death and killing, and only by advancing to a higher level could he survive here. Relying on dodging and picking up leaks, sooner or later it will be swallowed by the abyss.

Zuode didn't understand how this outsider stepped into the abyss, but with Zuode's understanding of the abyss, this guy couldn't go far.

The location of this mountainside seemed to be better than Zod's previous residence, and Zuode was still curious enough about this outsider to find a hidden cave near it and settle down.

The new lair wasn't as spacious as before, but it was airy and cool, and you could even observe the strange outsider.

In the gloomy cave, Zuode looked at the pile of ashes on the altar with a look of chagrin.

The sacrifice failed again! The Abyssal Will took the sacrifice, but did not return the power.

"This crude abyss altar still seems to affect the outcome of the sacrifice, and this is the fifth time it has failed......" It's a pity that Zuode doesn't have the materials to make a more advanced abyss altar, so he can only reluctantly repeat the process.

Zode left the soul core aside, this unpurified soul core was useless to him for the time being, and he couldn't hunt around with these things at any time, so he had to leave it in the makeshift lair.

Zuo De paced to the entrance of the cave with some annoyance, but was surprised to find that the cautious fat worm had actually encountered a huge crisis.
