Chapter 1213: The City of Underground Creatures

It was unknown how long these densely packed underground creatures had been attacking, but the sealing barrier showed no signs of being damaged.

At this rate of progress, it would be impossible to shatter the sealing barrier.

Unless more powerful and terrifying underground creatures take action.

But this is obviously impossible.

After all, underground creatures of different levels are located in different underground worlds.

They were blocked by the seals of their respective underground worlds and had no way of going to the higher underground worlds.

Therefore, the frantic attacks of these underground creatures on the barrier seemed completely useless to him.

Logically speaking, the underground creatures that have developed intelligence should not be unaware of this.

Why repeat such useless actions?

As he was thinking about this, he once again thought of the question that the sea clan members and human race strongmen had asked him before.

If the underground creatures wanted to use this method to attract the sea creatures and humans to help them break through the barrier.

So what methods are they going to use?

It’s a pity that he still hasn’t got an answer to this question until now.

He has already explored the underground world of the tiankeng from the first to the fourth level.

No useful clues were found at all.

If we have to talk about valuable clues, perhaps it is only the jade slip left by the sea god.

According to the information left by Poseidon, the first danger level is the five world areas from the first to the fifth level.

Now the first four levels of the world have been explored, only the fifth level is left.

If we can't find any useful clues in this fifth world, then we'll be in trouble.

After taking a deep breath, he suppressed the disturbing thoughts in his mind and said to himself:

"I hope we can find valuable clues on the fifth floor. We really don't have that much time to waste."

After muttering to himself for a while, he flashed into the barrier that was being frantically attacked by underground creatures.

After passing through this layer of sealing barrier, he officially arrived at the fifth level of the Abyss Tiankeng world.

After coming to this fifth world, that strange energy became even more terrifying and intense.

If an ordinary cultivator came here, he would not be able to stay for long.

Fortunately, I let the old Taoist priest and several disciples train on the fourth level.

If they were allowed to reach the fifth floor, they would not be able to hold out for long.

However, this place had no effect on him at all. In fact, the rich and strange energy here made him feel comfortable.

After all, no matter what kind of energy it is, he can easily absorb it and refine it into his own sword body energy.

After coming here, he didn't need to activate it deliberately, as the technique started to operate on its own and began to absorb the extremely rich and strange energy around him.

After a brief sigh, he didn't waste any time and rushed forward in the air.

Although no clues were collected in the first four worlds.

But he had a hunch that he would definitely gain something in this fifth world.

This is, after all, the last world zone of the first danger level.

If there are no clues here, it would be hard to explain.

With such confidence in mind, Lu Fan used the system exploration function to carefully investigate everything here.

After exploring for less than half an hour, a special place was discovered within the coverage area of ​​the exploration function.

Without any hesitation, he immediately flashed and sped towards the special area he had explored.

While rushing to that special area, he finally discovered a number of intelligent underground creatures.

In the four underground worlds from the first to the fourth level, all underground creatures are relatively concentrated.

Except for the entrance to the next level, all underground creatures gather in a specific place.

There is no trace of underground creatures in other areas.

But after coming to the fifth floor, he clearly discovered the difference.

The biggest difference is that underground creatures appear in every area, and their number is not fixed.

Moreover, most of the underground creatures on the fifth layer have developed intelligence.

In other words, in this fifth world, there are very few underground creatures that have not developed intelligence.

There is a huge difference between underground creatures that have been born with intelligence and those that have not.

You can see it at a glance, there is no need to observe it specifically.

So while rushing on the road, Lu Fan discovered that this world was completely different from the four levels above.

Soon he arrived at the special place he had explored.

The special place he explored was none other than a deserted and dilapidated city.

This city was obviously built a long time ago by monks of humans or other races.

However, there were no traces of humans or monks of other races in this city.

Although there are no humans or other races in this city, there are many underground creatures.

These underground creatures enter and exit the city through the city gates, and survive in the city just like human monks.

When he used the detection function just now, he felt very surprised.

After seeing this scene with his own eyes, he felt indescribably strange and shocked in his heart.

But after thinking about it, he understood.

Low-level creatures without intelligence are like low-level ferocious beasts, knowing only killing and the most primitive desires.

However, once they are born with intelligence, they will have a strong sense of territory, and will recruit other low-level ferocious beasts to become their subordinates and establish their own territory.

To put it bluntly, these underground creatures are also members of the underground race, so it doesn't seem unreasonable that they can survive in the city just like humans.

After all, humans are not the only ones who can build cities; other races can do it too.

After any race develops intelligence, there is not much difference between them and humans.

The only difference may be the appearance and body.

Lu Fan landed on the ground while thinking and walked towards the city in front.

Because he was discovered by those underground creatures on the third floor, he used the power of the system to condense several layers of barriers, completely covering himself.

Not only did he use the barrier condensed by the power of the system to restrain his aura, but he also concealed his figure.

And this effect is unquestionable.

At this moment, many underground creatures passed by him and did not notice his existence at all.

This made Lu Fan feel at ease, and he walked towards the city gate with confidence and boldness.

As he headed toward the city gate, he also observed the underground creatures passing by.

After observing for a while, he found that these underground creatures seemed to be speaking some language when they passed by in twos and threes.

These guys are also chatting and communicating like humans.

It’s just that I can’t understand the language they speak at all, and I have no idea what they are saying.

He wanted to use his spiritual awareness to investigate these guys.

However, if he activated his spiritual consciousness, he would definitely be discovered by these underground creatures, thus ruining his plan.

So he could only suppress his curiosity.

Soon he arrived at the dilapidated city gate and entered the city smoothly without encountering any obstacles.

When he entered the city, he suddenly felt dazed.

Because there were some shops and stalls in the city, selling all kinds of strange things, special things he had never seen before.

There are also underground creatures coming and going on the slightly dilapidated streets.

There were also some gibberish shouting sounds, probably calling out to something.

The scene before our eyes is so similar to those prosperous cities of human beings.

It’s just that the creatures living in this city are underground, and I can’t understand a word they say.

Lu Fan suppressed his curiosity and continued to move forward, his eyes constantly scanning the stalls on both sides of the street.

The items sold at the stalls are all used by underground creatures for cultivation.

There are special black balls containing strange energy, which should be their elixir.

There are also many special plants that are somewhat similar to the magical medicines in the outside world.

In addition, Lu Fan also discovered that these underground creatures used crystals similar to spirit stones to purchase items.

The only difference is that spirit stones are bright in color, while these crystal stones are black.

In this way, Lu Fan observed and explored, spending more than half an hour to carefully tour the entire city.

Although this city is a relic from a long time ago, and many of the buildings in the city are somewhat dilapidated.

But it is undeniable that this city is still quite lively.

It’s a pity that I can’t understand what these underground creatures are saying.

Otherwise, I will definitely get some useful information.

After touring the entire city, Lu Fan stepped into the air and returned to the sky, looking down at the underground creatures in the city from above.

Looking at the huge number of underground creatures in the city, he frowned and muttered to himself:

"It seems that we need to find a way to master the language of these underground creatures. Otherwise, we won't understand anything they say, so how can we find any clues?"

After making the decision in his mind, he didn't waste any time and went straight to a remote place far away from the city.

It was not difficult for him to master the language of these underground creatures.

All you have to do is capture an underground creature and search its soul to learn from it.

So he came to this relatively remote area, where capturing underground creatures would not cause too much noise.

Now that he has a solution, he is not so anxious anymore and starts to wait patiently here.

At the same time, the system detection function was turned off to avoid further consumption of points.

After waiting patiently for several hours, two underground creatures finally passed by here, mumbling something.

Looking at the two underground creatures passing by him, Lu Fan's eyes suddenly lit up.

Then, without hesitation, he burst out with his cultivation aura to envelope the two guys.

The next moment, he forcibly took these two guys into the system space...
