Insects!
Densely packed insects!
They were boundless, with no end in sight. At the very least, the electronic frequency detected by the mechanical insects showed that, other than the sparse inner circle, there were insects everywhere in the outer circle.
Although there weren't so many that the entire void was filled to the point where there was no space for battleships to enter, the density was truly astonishing. Ye Xuan could see from the holographic screen in front of him that there weren't many large empty spaces in the area where the insects were distributed.
These insects were of different sizes. The small ones were hundreds of meters long, while the large ones were thousands of meters long. They were about the same size as the mechanical insects that Young Emperor Shaofeng and the other Tianji Race higher-ups had merged with their flying fortresses and shrunk.
Moreover, they were all beetles with hard shells, not soft-bodied reptiles.
All of the insects were black, and their shells were covered with an oily luster. One look and one could tell that they were extremely hard.
Their limbs and bodies were covered with sharp barbs and blades. They belonged to a type of beetle that was definitely very powerful in terms of combat prowess.
In terms of aura, most of the black beetles were below the eighth realm, Black Hole Realm, but a small number were above it. Ye Xuan even saw a few black beetles at the twelfth realm, Void Realm, on the holographic screen. Judging from their cultivation, they were even stronger than Ye Xuan!
This was the world of the insect race. Any human expert who came here, even if it was a Universe Realm expert at the fifteenth realm, had to be careful.
This was because this was only the edge of the buffer zone. If they entered the inner circle, or even the depths of the entire source of all evil star field, there would definitely be even more terrifying black beetles.
It was not necessarily impossible for a Universe Realm Insect King or Insect Empress to appear!
Fortunately, these black beetles didn't seem to be very violent and didn't seem to be very aggressive. They should be a type of insect race that was more inert. Otherwise, any living creature that entered this source of all evil would be the beginning of a nightmare. On the holographic screen, all the insects basically didn't move. Even if they moved, they would only wander around in a small area nearby. The dense and strange sound that made one's scalp tighten was the sound of their limbs crawling in the void and touching some space dust.
Sound!
There was no sound of eating or grinding of teeth, which meant that they did not have high requirements for food, which happened to fit the characteristics of this kind of lazy beetle.
After confirming this, Ye Xuan heaved a sigh of relief. Under such circumstances, as long as they were careful and did not disturb the Black Beetles, it was entirely possible to pass through the territory occupied by the Black Beetles.
No wonder they didn't see Emperor Shaofeng and the others return. They must have passed through the corner of the Zerg territory shown on the holographic three-dimensional screen and rushed forward.
It was definitely not their first time here, so they had some understanding of this place. Otherwise, they would have turned tail and fled long ago when they suddenly saw such a large group of terrifying universe bugs.
When Ye Xuan analyzed everything that he saw on the holographic screen, Chanas, who was behind him, basically had his own judgment. The originally green expression on his face eased a lot. Clearly, he had realized that this Zerg race was not as scary as they looked.
Any lazy creature was like this. As long as they were not provoked, there would not be too much danger!
"Sha sha … Sir Sha, in this vast sea of bugs, it won't be so easy for us to find those few iron bugs. Maybe a female bug took a fancy to them and left them in the nest to be a guard. That's also possible …" Seeing Ye Xuan staring at the holographic three-dimensional screen in front of him and frowning without saying anything, the commander of the Demon Royal Guards, Chanas, seemed to feel that another opportunity had come. He moved closer and encouraged again, "So, in my opinion, let's retreat first. Those five guys definitely won't be able to come out.
Ah, if we also encounter a female bug with bad eyesight, it will be troublesome! "
It was truly difficult for him to think of such an excuse. Ye Xuan rolled his eyes when he heard this. He wasn't interested in replying to him at all. After pondering for a moment, he immediately gave the order to the Mechanical Demon Insect to continue forward.
"Whoosh!"
After receiving the order, the mechanical demon bug's body suddenly bounced, and in the blink of an eye, it was nearly a hundred miles away, quickly moving into the depths of the buffer zone …
…
At the same time, in the void thousands of miles ahead … This was already the depths of the buffer zone, and the surroundings were densely packed with bugs. There were basically not many gaps, but the five-thousand-meter-long mechanical battle bug could still move forward. It was as if it was slowly moving in a crisscrossing winding path. In terms of speed, it was basically no longer possible.
There was no need to think about it!
It couldn't be fast even if it wanted to, unless it was the mechanical demon bug under Ye Xuan. It was only about a thousand meters in size, so it could more or less guarantee a certain speed!
After all, the black beetles in the surrounding void were all more than a thousand meters in size. With the agility of the mechanical demon bug, even if it was a winding path, it could quickly pass through it!
At this moment, Emperor Shaofeng and the other five higher-ups of the Tianji Clan and the five mechanical battle bugs transformed from their respective fortresses were slowly moving forward in this void.
Ye Xuan's guess was correct. This wasn't the first time they had come to this source of all evil star field. They had already entered and explored it three times, and this was their fourth time entering.
The purpose of the first three times was to conduct a preliminary exploration, and at the same time, collect some samples to bring back to the Tianji Clan's headquarters, Tianji City, and hand them over to the Immortal rank superbrain in Tianji City for evaluation and analysis. In the end, the samples they brought out for the third time finally had a definite evaluation result. Thus, they began their fourth exploration. This time, there were even more people coming in, a total of eight higher-ups of the Tianji Clan. Their purpose wasn't just to collect samples, but to take away the core hinterland with them.
It was an important resource within the Tianji Clan.
In the first three explorations, the areas that the higher-ups of the Tianji Clan had explored included not only the periphery of the star field and the buffer zone of the central region, but even the core hinterland of the source of all evil star field. They had basically explored more than thirty to forty percent of the area.
Therefore, although Emperor Shaofeng and the other four appeared to be very cautious, in fact, they were all very confident.
In the previous three explorations, they had smoothly crossed this central region buffer zone. Although there were many black beetles here, as long as they didn't provoke them, they wouldn't attack. At present, they only needed to advance over 20,000 kilometers to leave the central region and enter the depths of the source of all evil. After entering that place, although the Black Beetles were more powerful, and some other rare Ferocious Starry Sky Beasts would appear, their numbers would be much fewer. Basically, the Black Beetles
