Hearing that the earth elemental core crystal came from the Underground King, everyone came to a sudden realization.
No wonder the earth elemental beast was originally a human-earth beast, but now it was completely different. It turned out that it had been modified by the Underground King.
"In that case, the Underground King is a great philanthropist." Lan Fengyuan joked. After all, if he had obtained the earth elemental core crystal, he naturally wouldn't have given it to a monster like this.
"I'm afraid it's not that simple …" The dragon and phoenix pondered.
Because in the "Wild Desert", Lin Yun discovered that the earth elemental beast released a large number of "immortal storage beasts". Just the immortal aura and life aura collected by them in a day was enough to supply a large number of living beings.
And such a majestic immortal aura and life aura couldn't be absorbed by the earth elemental beast alone.
So there was only one possibility!
The immortal aura and life aura collected by the "immortal storage beasts" released by the earth elemental beast were actually all supplied to the underground world.
This was also why when Lan Fengyuan asked why the underground world could still maintain a population of billions after millions of years, the dragon and phoenix thought it was the earth elemental beast.
The dragon and phoenix expressed their thoughts, and Lin Yun shook his head slowly. "You're only half right."
Half?
Everyone stared at each other, and finally their eyes fell on Lin Yun, waiting for Lin Yun's explanation.
Lin Yun said in a deep voice, "In fact, the immortal aura and life aura collected by the earth elemental beast weren't supplied to the entire underground world, but to the underground army under the command of the Underground King."
"Because they were exposed to the radiation of the earth's core all year round, the underground people didn't have a long lifespan. With the life aura and immortal aura collected by the earth elemental beast, the underground people under the command of the Underground King could at least have a certain increase in lifespan."
"After that, the Underground King used this group of underground people who had their lifespans increased as" breeding pigs "to produce a large number of offspring."
Everyone didn't know whether to laugh or cry. If it was really as Lin Yun said, then using the word "breeding pig" to describe it was indeed extremely suitable.
After all, in the underground world, there were also differences between men and women. The underground people's method of reproduction was probably no different from that of humans.
Due to the increase in lifespan, they could reproduce for a long time. This was also the reason why the underground world could still maintain a population of billions.
At this time, Lin Yun suddenly said, "But I think that the Underground King's true goal isn't to reproduce."
Everyone fell silent. Lin Yun continued, "These underground people who have obtained the immortal aura and life aura, as well as the next generation they give birth to, will adapt in advance to the rich immortal aura and the unique life aura on the ground."
"If my conjecture is correct, the Underground King is unwilling to continue living in the Underground World and wants to return to the surface world."
Everyone sucked in a cold breath when they heard Lin Yun's guess.
"Could it be that he wants to start a war with the humans on the ground?" The biology doctor, who rarely spoke, couldn't help but exclaim.
Lin Yun nodded. Apart from this, he couldn't think of any other reason.
Moreover, from the memory of this underground person, this Underground King who was half a step to Emperor Wu's realm was definitely not a good person. His ruthlessness had already aroused the dissatisfaction of many underground people.
The ruins they were in now used to be inhabited by a large number of underground people. However, those underground people were all slaughtered because they resisted the Underground King's rule.
Originally, exploring a whole new world and being able to capture the Earth Divine Beast had made everyone extremely excited.
But now that Lin Yun said this, everyone's mood became incomparably heavy.
"Lin Yun, are we still going to capture the Earth Divine Beast?" Lan Fengyuan wanted to retreat. After all, whether they could capture the Earth Divine Beast or not, in fact, didn't mean much to him.
Moreover, the Underground King was half a step to Emperor Wu's strength. They simply didn't have any chance.
Lin Yun thought for a long time and was also prepared to give up this opportunity.
Because with his current strength, it was simply not enough to challenge half a step to Emperor Wu.
Moreover, in this entire underground world, there were many underground people with the strength of Wu Zun.
It could be said that the current underground world was not like a force, but more like an entire world.
Lin Yun would consider the pros and cons. Although the Earth Elemental Crystal was necessary, it wasn't necessary to obtain it now.
Under the protection of the Underground King, the Earth Divine Beast wouldn't have too many problems. As long as his strength grew to a certain level in the future, he could come back and take the Earth Elemental Crystal.
"In that case, let's go back first. This place is not suitable for us to stay for long." Lin Yun quickly made a decision. Since he had decided not to be entangled here, then they should leave as soon as possible.
Just as everyone was about to leave, Lan Fengyuan stopped. He wanted to take the underground person back for research.
Lin Yun bluntly said to him, "There's no need. The so-called survival of the fittest, the reason why they can absorb the energy of the Earth Core is purely because they have lived here long enough. They need to survive, which leads to evolution and mutation. "
"I have just used my divine sense to examine them. Their body structure isn't much different from humans, and they have no research value."
Since Lin Yun had already said this, Lan Fengyuan didn't insist.
Everyone immediately set off, heading towards the entrance they had just come from.
"Since you have no value, then die." When Lan Fengyuan left, he also pierced the underground person's heart.
About ten thousand meters ahead, suddenly, the yellow sand in front of them was like a huge wave, smashing towards Lin Yun's group of four.
It happened suddenly, and this yellow sand was full of power, rolling up tens of thousands of feet high. For a moment, everyone couldn't dodge.
Lan Fengyuan was closer to the biology professor, so he immediately grabbed his shoulder and flew higher. Lin Yun also immediately rose into the air.
"Amazing … What is this?" Lan Fengyuan was dumbfounded as he looked at his feet. Now, the desert within a radius of a hundred miles seemed to have rolled up a desert wave.
Layers of sand waves rolled past, and the scene was very spectacular.
This sand wave did not last long. It came and went quickly. It only lasted for a few seconds, and its speed was extremely fast.
Gradually, the land returned to its former tranquility. However, the ground had undergone a tremendous change.
"Oh my God … That … What is that?" The biology professor was shocked.
Lin Yun and Lan Fengyuan also looked in the direction he was looking.
