Before setting out for the Ancient Forbidden Land, Austin first went to the ancient city.
"Lad, Clint has been getting better recently,"
the supreme holy tree told Austin as soon as it saw him.
"Nice! "
Austin was pleasantly surprised.
"Yes. He has remembered a few things.
Although he hasn't got his entire memory back, I do believe that he will make a full recovery soon,"
the holy yellow tree cut in.
"That's great!"
Austin was overjoyed.
After that, he went to the city wall and looked up at the evil tree that reached far into the sky. He saw that the evil aura it was releasing had somewhat lessened.
It would completely get rid of the evil aura after it came back to its senses.
After all, it was not an evil tree by nature.
Austin chatted with the soldier, the supreme holy tree, and the holy yellow tree for a while. After, he headed towards the Ancient Forbidden Land once more.
"Here I am, devil insect race,"
Austin murmured as he set foot at the edge of the Ancient Forbidden Land.
Meanwhile, on a desolate star cluster somewhere in the universe, events were beginning to transpire.
The cluster was vast, and lifeless stars floated everywhere.
There was no life in this area. It was like a cursed place where no living beings could ever survive.
In fact, this area was famously known as the Tomb Star Cluster.
One day, in the depths of this cluster, thunder began to rumble and lightning began to flash. Out of the blue, a huge space crack appeared. After a few moments, the crack stabilized, and corpse miasma gushed out from it with an aura of the dead.
The space crack was dark and boundless, and seemed to be connecting the cluster to some unknown field.
Through this crack, a few living creatures could be seen. They looked impassive, as if they had no emotions at all.
Their very presence would have made whoever beheld them feel like they were from a different world and had lived for a long, long time.
"The hunting that is held every five eras now begins. The gate of hell has opened!
Let's finish off every single creature in this universe."
A cold voice came from the crack. Anyone would have s
tracted by a mysterious force and turned into a light that flew right at him.
Even the original energy essence of stars from the nearby clusters flew towards him of its own free will.
He opened his mouth, and instead of a tongue, a black hole could be seen there. This black hole sucked the original energy essence of the stars greedily.
Then his flesh began to grow back and his skin slowly became smooth as silk.
After a while, he turned into a middle-aged man of handsome features.
This middle-aged man, now clad in white clothes ripped off the space in front of him, creating a spatial passage.
After that, he stepped into this passage and disappeared.
Meanwhile, in the Ancient Forbidden Land, Austin came out of the ground slowly.
He was on a hillside
that was located near a very important location for the evil moth race.
The divine silkworm, emitting a dazzling golden light was having fun.
It grabbed Austin's hair, which was hanging near his left shoulder and swayed as if it was swinging like a child on a swing.
Austin watched the divine silkworm with a frown.
"King of all insects which can control the other insects.
Little guy, I know you're a strong fighter.
But can you really command other bugs?"
Austin muttered in a skeptical tone.
"Never mind that. We will know soon."
Austin turned to look at the valley in the distance.
It was heavily guarded by the members of the devil moth race.
