In a huge and spacious space that looked like an underground cave.
Wu Ming deactivated his wolf beast form, and a layer of steel-like feathers covered his body. After transforming into a werewolf, he turned into a birdman again. A pair of eagle wings grew on his back, and he flapped them in the wind. His right hand turned into a golden claw, and he moved like lightning in the air, cutting down the mutated hornets the size of calves.
On the ground, Evil Wolf was wrapped in green soul-devouring flames, and he held the head of a giant hornet in his mouth. Hou Yong hid in a corner, trembling.
On the way to Waterfall City, Wu Ming had collected a combat skill jade scroll related to the eagle-type fusion technique, and he had thrown it at the Iron Winged Golden Eagle.
Now that he used it, the effect was indeed extraordinary.
This was not only the great power of a peak-level Fighter, but also the terrifying bonus of the racial advantage of an outstanding breed!
"So … so powerful! These are all elite Gluttonous Hornets! "
Hou Yong looked at this scene in a daze, and his mouth gradually opened wide.
"Buzz buzz!"
Finally, after a thick layer of hornet corpses accumulated on the ground, a hornet queen that was several times larger than a normal hornet and looked even more ferocious appeared from the huge hive opposite.
[Gluttonous Hornet King]
[Race Level: Elite (Orange)]
[Race Bonus: 1]
[Attribute: Insect]
[Rank: Advanced Fighter]
[Combat Skills, Demonic Arts: Sting, Bee Venom]
[Status: Angry]
…
"Among the Gluttonous Hornets, the Queen Bee has the highest combat power. Although the Queen Bee has a high rank, she is only responsible for laying eggs and breeding …"
Information flashed through Wu Ming's mind, and he pounced forward.
"Gale Sting!"
Poof!
His body turned into a sharp arrow, and he dodged the stinger spat out by the Queen Bee. A golden line swept out and hit the Gluttonous Hornet King.
It was stunned for a moment, and then its body was evenly split in half from the middle, and it fell to the ground.
The Iron Winged Golden Eagle was a peak-level Fighter after all! And it was an outstanding breed. This was an advantage of two ranks, and it could not be made up for with ordinary means.
Buzz buzz!
Suddenly, the entire beehive shook, and a fat and huge queen bee appeared. It slowly flew away, surrounded by many Gluttonous Wasps. There were also many worker bees with eggs in their mouths.
On the other side, a large number of wasps were desperately pestering Wu Ming to attract his attention.
This wave of Gluttonous Hornets had been beaten by Wu Ming to the point that they had no choice but to abandon their nest and search for a new base.
"It's a pity … I'm not a group spiritualist. I'm not interested in the queen bee!"
Wu Ming landed on the ground and retracted his combined form. He looked at Hou Yong, who was on the ground. "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine … but my big-bellied osprey …"
At the mention of this, Hou Yong was about to cry.
"You still have the nerve to say that?"
Wu Ming kicked him. "If it weren't for your big-bellied fish eagle flying around, we wouldn't have poked the hornets' nest. Why aren't you leaving? "
"Leave?"
Hou Yong scratched his head and smiled honestly. "But we don't want this horse honey? I heard from my teacher that it's a top-grade food for the phantom. It's priceless! "
As he spoke, he clumsily pried open the beehive. Suddenly, he was chased by a hornet that had just hatched. "Help! Help! "
Wu Ming didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He saw Hou Yong stumble and fall over the entire beehive, revealing a dark cave behind it.
"This is … the exit?!"
A hint of ecstasy appeared on Wu Ming's face. "I didn't expect … the exit of the underground labyrinth that I've been searching for so long is actually hidden in the nest of Gluttonous Hornets. They're too cunning … They must have used some kind of trick to confuse us. If they didn't open it themselves, no spiritualist would have found it!"
"Sir John Doe … This …"
Hou Yong's face was filled with innocence.
"Haha … You've made a great contribution! There's an eighty percent chance that Jia Kongming's legacy is behind this! Let's go in! "
Wu Ming's eyes were a little fiery as he moved forward with Hou Yong.
…
After an unknown amount of time, the girls from the Star Moon Empire also caught up.
"The message in the wind tells me …"
The spiritualist who looked like a nanny pointed at the hornets' nest. "I've searched 99% of the paths in the lava labyrinth, and they're all dead ends! Only this place has traces of people! "
"Very good!"
The girl was the first to enter. First, she saw the hornets' corpses all over the ground, and her face was a little shocked. Then, she saw the cave.
"Someone's already here. Go after them!"
She quickly ordered. For some reason, Wu Ming's face suddenly appeared in her mind.
But she knew that if someone was one step ahead of her, it had to be that mysterious spiritualist!
"So it's here!"
After they entered, a black-clothed man slowly walked out from the shadows.
Previously, when the nanny used the wind elves, she claimed that everything in the surroundings couldn't be hidden, but she couldn't discover the existence of this black-clothed man.
"Jia Kongming's legacy can only be mine! If I want to complete the clan's secret technique, I can only find clues from it … "
The black-clothed man mumbled and quickly disappeared into the cave.
…
"Quick! Quick! "
In the tunnel, Wu Ming urged Hou Yong to move forward.
"Although the spiritualists behind us are just a bunch of useless soldiers and a motley crew, if they work together, it'll be troublesome … Besides, after the original disguise is removed, it's useless to add it again …"
The original arrangement was to use the unique hive and honey of the Gluttonous Hornet to form an effect similar to isolation.
But now, of course, Wu Ming couldn't capture the Hornet Queen and force it to continue building its nest here.
"Fortunately, this lava labyrinth is big enough, and it can buy me some time …"
Pulling Hou Yong along, Wu Ming quickly moved forward along the slope that was slightly sloping and continuously going up.
Crack!
Finally, he reached the end of the tunnel and saw a black iron gate. On both sides of the gate was a strange phantom, but it was not a type that Wu Ming knew.
"We're here, Jia Kongming's legacy land!"
Wu Ming's heart was burning. He suddenly turned his head. "Hou Yong, go and open the gate!"
"Ah? Yes! "
To be honest, although Hou Yong was a little slow, he wasn't a real fool. Naturally, he knew what Wu Ming meant.
But he had been saved by Wu Ming many times along the way, and he also knew Wu Ming's strength. How could he dare to resist? He immediately stepped forward and held the door knocker with both hands.
Creak! Creak!
The iron gate looked heavy, but it didn't take much effort to push it open. Dust kept falling, and it was obvious that this place had been abandoned for a long time.
Behind the gate was a stone room. The furnishings inside were simple, and there were only a few stone tables and chairs. There was a stone bed in the innermost part, and three stone boxes were placed side by side on it.
"Huh? Although I knew that Jia Kongming wasn't a bad person, why did he hand over the legacy so easily? "
Wu Ming raised his chin at Hou Yong with a vigilant look on his face.
"Alright …"
Hou Yong smiled bitterly. He slowly stepped forward, picked up one of the stone boxes, and gently opened it.
A ray of light appeared.
Inside the box was a well-sealed crystal, and inside it was a phantom egg. It was like a seed that had survived the winter, and there were mysterious patterns on the surface of the eggshell.
"The phantom egg of the Bluestone Ape?"
A ray of light flashed. With just a glance, Wu Ming knew what this egg was. He even knew its vitality, attributes, and potential.
Inside the stone box, there was indeed a yellowed note, and there were a few lines of small words written on it.
"Ancient Bluestone Ape, although an elite species, has extremely high potential. It can mutate into many ape tribes, and is specially collected …"
"It seems that the reason why this Bluestone Ape was collected by Jia Kongming was not because it was an elite species, but because it was an ancient phantom. It is extremely rare, and can be used to study racial mutation …"
Wu Ming accepted it without hesitation, and pointed to the remaining two boxes.
Hou Yong was much bolder this time, and he took the two stone boxes and opened them together.
"Huh?"
After one of the stone boxes was opened, it immediately illuminated the entire room with golden light. It was incomparably dazzling. Wu Ming's ears seemed to hear an ancient long cry.
"This is …"
The golden light dissipated, and he stretched out his hand, grabbing a golden feather.
This feather seemed to be made of pure gold, and the veins on it flashed with spiritual light. Just by holding it in his hand, Wu Ming felt a terrifying murderous aura.
"I don't know what kind of Direbeast this is, but it must be more than an outstanding species …"
Wu Ming murmured, feeling the iron-winged golden eagle's eagerness to make a move.
"Good stuff …"
He was delighted. From the desire in the contract, he knew that this item must be very effective for the iron-winged golden eagle.
"Speaking of which … the iron-winged golden eagle is already at the peak of the Warrior level, and is about to advance … If I use this item, reaching the General level is definitely not a dream … But it's impossible to increase the rank of my race at the same time! But even so, I can use it to break through and advance to the General level! "
The advancement of a Spirit Controller could be said to be complicated, but it could also be said to be simple.
Because of Wu Ming's uniqueness, he did not have the soul bottleneck that most Spirit Controllers had. Therefore, as long as the phantom broke through, his advancement would come naturally.
This would create a very terrifying scene.
"It's been less than two months since I advanced to the Soldier level, right? I'm going to advance to the General level again … "
In the Dongfang family, there was only one Commander-level Spirit Controller, Dongfang Ying. Even Dongfang Xiong and Dongfang Tie were only at the General level.
If he went back after he reached the General level, he could almost immediately run for the Elder Group and fight for the highest power in the family!
Wu Ming put away the feather and looked at the third stone box.
There was only a blue fruit in this box. It was dotted with blue spots like bright stars.
"Star Origin Fruit … Mystical item. It can strengthen the soul and help a Spirit Controller break through the bottleneck …"
Wu Ming read the effect softly, and Hou Yong, who was next to him, immediately breathed heavily.
The advancement of a Spirit Controller was two-fold.
Not only did the Phantom Beast have to break through, but the Spirit Controller's soul also had to break through!
Most of the time, the Phantom Beast had clearly met the requirements for advancement, but the Spirit Controller's soul could not bear it, and the advancement was hindered!
Therefore, Hou Yong knew very well what kind of earthquake this mystical item that could strengthen the soul would cause.
At least, even if all the forces united, they would not be able to protect a mere Waterfall City!
