Originally, Chu Xingyun only wanted to extort two or three thousand Nirvana level Abyssal Worm Kings from the Abyss Emperor to protect the Heavenly Craft Island. But he never thought that the Abyss Emperor would be more nervous than him.
In fact, the Abyss Emperor was overjoyed when he observed the Abyssal Worm Queen that ate the bamboo tube.
Abyssal beetles fed on plants. Only the nutritious elements contained in plants could be absorbed by them.
Directly eating refined iron ore would only cause them to lose their lives. They couldn't absorb the metal elements in the ore.
Therefore, those bamboos that had great elasticity and toughness and contained a large amount of refined iron elements were no different from elixirs to the Abyssal Beetles.
Not only was it effective for ordinary Abyssal Beetles, even for the Abyss Emperor, this Arrow Bamboo had an unparalleled effect.
Don't think that the underground world was peaceful.
Don't think that the underground world only had the Abyssal Beetle race. In fact … the Abyssal Beetles were only one of the hundred.
Jie meant beetle, and the hundred generally referred to all creatures with carapaces. Among them … the Abyssal Demon Bugs were only a relatively powerful branch of the hundred.
The surface world seemed vast and boundless, but there was only one layer of the surface world. Therefore, the area was fixed.
Although the surface world was certainly not as large as the surface world in terms of a single layer, it could be divided into layers.
However, the underground world could be divided into levels. Chu Xingyun's current position was the 108th level!
Was the 108th layer the limit? On the contrary, this was only the surface.
If the earth was compared to a person, the 108th layer was just the skin layer.
If the 108th layer was used as a unit of thickness, then the entire earth could be divided into 72 layers. But in fact, the underground creatures didn't divide it like that.
In the eyes of the underground creatures, only the stratum that formed a large area of the underground world could be counted as a layer. If there was no underground world but only a cave, it couldn't be counted as a layer.
There were a total of 18 layers that formed the underground world in the entire earth!
Although the surface world was large, 70% of it was covered by the ocean. The area that humans could live in was very small.
In terms of land area, the total area of the 18 layers of the underground world was ten times the land area of the surface!
The vast underground world was the territory of the Baijie. Among them … the stronger the race, the closer they lived to the surface.
If one were to compare the Qiankun world to a sponge, then humans would be the bacteria that lived on the surface.
The entire interior of the sponge was Baijie's territory.
The Abyssal Beetles, which were able to give birth to the Emperor, were one of the most powerful races among the hundreds of Abyssal Beetles. However, they also had enemies, and even natural enemies.
If it weren't for the birth of an invincible existence like the Abyssal Emperor, the Abyssal Beetles might not have had the chance to live in the lowest and outermost positions, and might very well have been chased away.
Just like the wars between humans, demons, and demons on the surface, the Abyss Race was also fighting every day.
If it was said that humans were greedy for life and afraid of death, then they would have a fearful heart.
In that case, the Abyssal Beetle had no concept of life and death.
In the continuous battles, who knew how many Abyssal Beetles died every day. For the hundreds of Abyssal Beetles, if they weren't born to fight, then their existence was meaningless.
The Baijie's battle relied on their carapace to defend, their own strength to fight, and their sharp teeth to tear their opponents apart. Everything was incomparably primitive and incomparably barbaric.
But it was precisely because of this that when the Abyssal Emperor discovered food like the Arrow Bamboo, he couldn't resist the desire in his heart and even used the entire Demon Spirit Race to exchange for the Arrow Bamboo.
Although it sounded inconceivable at first, think about it. If the Five Emperors of the human race discovered a plant that could allow all humans to evolve and have the ability to defeat and even exterminate the Demon Race and Demon Race, what would they do?
There was no need to doubt that they would definitely resolutely betray the Demon Spirit Race.
Using everything of the Demon Spirit Race in exchange for the human race to become the master of the world, no one could refuse such a deal.
Although the Demon Spirit Race seemed very pitiful, this was the price of being weak.
Weak people would be bullied, weak people would be beaten, and even if they were beaten, they couldn't resist and had to put on a smiling face.
If they wanted self-respect, they had to be strong. If they didn't want to be bullied, the only way was to make themselves stronger!
Therefore, when the Arrow Bamboo became the foundation of the rise and fall of the Abyssal Clan, how could the Abyssal Emperor not attach importance to it? How could he tolerate the possibility of the Arrow Bamboo being destroyed or even exterminated?
Therefore, when Chu Xingyun proposed this possibility, the Abyssal Emperor didn't even hesitate and directly sent 3,000 Martial Emperor level Abyssal Beetle Queens to station on the Heavenly Craft Island.
Usually, these Abyssal Beetles wouldn't move out. Instead, they would hide under the earth's surface, eat the Arrow Bamboo, and concentrate on cultivating.
Once the Heavenly Craft Island was attacked and encountered danger, these Abyssal Beetles would move out at the most critical moment.
In any case, the Heavenly Craft Island was the foundation of the Abyssal Beetles. No creature could destroy it.
However, even though the Abyssal Beetles had reached the Martial Emperor level, their intelligence was still very low. Therefore, they couldn't move alone.
Once they were too far away from the Abyssal Emperor, they would break free from his control, and their actions would be driven by instinct. Such Abyssal Beetles couldn't distinguish between friend and foe.
Therefore, if they wanted to stay away from the Abyssal Emperor, these Abyssal Beetles had to use a secret method to become the guardian beasts of the Demon Spirit Race.
After becoming the guardian beasts of the Demon Spirit Race, even if they left the Abyssal Emperor, the Demon Spirit Race would take over control.
In fact, the Demon Spirit Race was the brain of the Abyssal Beetles.
Don't underestimate the 3,000 Abyssal Beetle Queens. It should be noted that … in order to protect the safety of the one billion Demon Spirit Race, the Abyssal Emperor only sent 10,000 Abyssal Beetle Queens.
The Abyssal Emperor only had a total of one million Abyssal Beetles under his command. Among them, there were only about 100,000 Abyssal Beetle Queens.
But now, in order to protect the Heavenly Craft Island, which only had a population of one million, he sent out 3,000 Abyssal Beetle Queens. From this, one could see how important it was.
The Abyssal Beetle Queens were the core force of the battle. The Abyssal Emperor really couldn't spare too many of them. Otherwise, without the backbone of the battle, the Abyssal Clan would probably be defeated.
After asking for 3,000 Abyssal Beetles at the Insect Emperor level, Chu Xingyun couldn't help but be overjoyed. This was greatly beyond his expectations.
With the 3,000 Martial Emperor level Abyssal Beetle Queens stationed here, the Heavenly Craft Island would be as stable as Mount Tai. He didn't have to worry about the safety of the Heavenly Craft Island anymore.
However, these 3,000 Martial Emperor level Abyssal Beetle Queens, in addition to guarding the Heavenly Craft Island, also needed to guard the entrance to the underground world. They couldn't leave the island.
Therefore, unless the enemy attacked the Heavenly Craft Island, these Abyssal Beetle Queens wouldn't be of any use.
Fortunately, Chu Xingyun didn't ask for much. As long as he could ensure the safety of the Heavenly Craft Island, that would be enough.
Since coming to the Universe World, Chu Xingyun had been living in seclusion and rarely came in contact with others. Therefore, he didn't make any enemies. No matter how many troops he had, they wouldn't be of any practical use.
However, Chu Xingyun had his own ideas and plans, as well as his own ideals and goals.
