The cloud of insects in the distance hovered in the air for a while, lost sight of Lu Ye, and then hibernated again.
Lu Ye's expression was solemn.
He had just returned to Kyushu before, immersed in the joy of returning to his homeland, and didn't pay much attention to it. At this moment, he finally saw some unusual places.
The most intuitive is the change from the original.
Liyuan is a huge plain, and it can also be regarded as a strategic buffer for Wanmo Ridge in Bingzhou. There are no people here, but since it is a plain, it is naturally full of vitality.
At the very least, the last time Lu Ye followed Nian Yuexian, overlooking from a high altitude, Liyuan was green and rippling.
But today's Liyuan, there is no green color, it is full of desolation, without any vitality.
Combined with the insect cloud he saw just now, Lu Ye still doesn't understand the root of all this.
Where the Zerg race passed by, not a single blade of grass grew, and all life was wiped out.
There is a lot of information in the battlefield imprint, which was passed by Yiyi just now. Lu Ye continued to investigate, and the more he looked at it, the happier he was.
He did not expect that such a major event would happen during the two years when he was not in Kyushu.
The swarm of insects swept across the land of Kyushu!
And the scale and intensity of the bug swarm this time is the most ferocious and terrifying since the history of Kyushu.
Every piece of land and every corner of Kyushu has been invaded by Zerg.
The last time the bug swarm broke out in the sea of fog, many sects with a radius of 10,000 li spent a lot of effort to extinguish the swarm, but the scale of the swarm was limited after all, and the impact was not great.
But this time the situation is completely different. This is no longer a bug infestation, but a bug plague.
Not only is the number huge, but among the various Zerg races, there are a large number of existences comparable to the Divine Sea Realm.
The insect plague broke out just two years ago, almost when Lu Ye left Kyushu.
The origin is a major earthquake that swept across Kyushu.
The whole world was in turmoil. Bottomless cracks appeared in all parts of Kyushu, and overnight, Kyushu became a paradise for Zerg.
Affected by the insect plague, the disputes between the two camps of the Haotian League Wanmo Ridge have subsided a lot, and now basically all the monks are fighting against the insect race.
The cultivators clearly understood that whether it was the Haotian League or the Wanmo Ridge, they were human races after all, but the Zerg race was a different species. In such a crisis, the grievances of the same race can be put aside first, and the extermination of the alien race is the top priority.
According to Yiyi, these Zerg races come from deep underground, they were not visible in the past, and they were not known to people. After all, monks will not go deep underground, because of the interference of the Yuan magnetic field, the deeper they go underground, the more spiritual power they will get. The more severely suppressed.
Therefore, the depths of the ground have always been a restricted area for monks.
But after the earthquake that swept across Kyushu, one after another ground fissures appeared, and the Zerg from the ground emerged.
I don't know how many years these insect races have been multiplying. There are so many types and a huge number. Although the Kyushu monks have worked hard to kill insects this year, they still can't kill them all.
There is no way to exterminate the nest.
The insect nests are hidden deep in the ground, and it is extremely difficult to find them. There have been strong people in the Shenhai realm who traveled in groups, but they also failed to return, because the further they went down, the greater the number of insect races, and their cultivation base was reduced. The stronger the suppression, and in such an environment, once a battle breaks out, it will be endless. Unless one strike is successful, it will be impossible to accomplish anything.
This is a catastrophe.
But for Kyushu monks, it was also a gluttonous feast.
Because killing insects can gain military exploits.
Lu Ye checked his combat achievements and found that he had gained several hundred points.
For Kyushu monks, meritorious service and military exploits are two things that run through the life of practice, especially the latter is extremely important and can be exchanged for spiritual lottery for practice.
On weekdays, there are not many ways for everyone to obtain military exploits. The military exploits of the state guards are basically issued through monthly salaries, and the amount is fixed, unless they perform some tasks.
But now killing insects can gain military exploits, how convenient.
This led to a phenomenon, the number of monks in the Yunhe battlefield decreased greatly!
Basically, those who are a little bit ambitious and have a little background in the Yunhe realm will leave the Yunhe battlefield and return to the Nine Provinces to kill the insects. In today's Yunhe battlefield, there are basically no monks above the fifth layer of Yunhe.
They all ran back to Kyushu.
They can't deal with the Zerg that is too powerful, but the biggest advantage of the Zerg is the number. Of course there are powerful Zerg, but compared to the overall number, it is really not worth mentioning.
So as long as your luck is not too bad, you can get something if you turn around anywhere.
Not to mention the monks in the real lake realm. In the past two years, many monks in Kyushu have fallen, but which one survived is not full of harvest. In the past, they had to calculate their military exploits to exchange for spiritual lottery practice, but now It's not necessary, if you don't have military achievements, go to kill the Zerg, and you will be there after a while.
Not to mention others, just take the members of the Ding Jiu team as an example. In the past two years, the overall cultivation of the team has improved significantly.
two years...
This timing is very coincidental, and Lu Ye couldn't help thinking about it.
What made him even more concerned was that on the way back to Kyushu, he vaguely saw many Zerg figures on a certain piece of floating land, but at that time it was only a glimpse, and he couldn't be sure that what he saw was Zerg.
But if it is really the Zerg that gathered on a floating land, do they have anything to do with this bug disaster?
Unable to confirm.
Team Ding Jiu is indeed captained by the third senior brother Xiao Xinghe, and they are now stationed in a city, guarding the safety of the city together with other monks.
There was no way around it, the plague of insects swept across all parts of Kyushu, and all sects, big or small, had the capital to protect themselves no matter how powerful they were.
But the city where many mortal lives gather will not work, and the nearby sects must deploy manpower to assist in the defense. Some sects have a good background and can deploy enough manpower, but some sects have a weak background and there are not many people at all. Those who are available can only ask Haotian City for help.
Ding Jiu's team was sent out under such circumstances. The team traveled to more than half of the Bingzhou in two years, and they are currently in the seventh city they are responsible for assisting in defense.
Through the many messages from Yiyi, Lu Ye roughly understood the current situation in Kyushu.
"Take care of yourselves. I'll go back to Haotian City first, and then I'll look for you." Lu Ye sent a message.
"Yeah, you have to be careful." Yiyi replied.
On the wall of Honghe City, Yiyi finished the interrogation, showing a relieved smile.
It's great that Lu Ye is back
Beside her, everyone from Team Ding Nine gathered, listening to Yiyi's recitation of Lu Ye's words, Xiao Xinghe laughed heartily, "Young junior brother is back, I should congratulate you with insect blood, everyone, come with me and kill some insects."
"Senior brother has an order, and the younger brother will follow the scene." Li Baxian stood up from a long body.
A moment later, under the leadership of Xiao Xinghe, everyone in the small team rushed out of the city and killed the generals.
Above Liyuan, Lu Ye activated the Thousand Faces Spirit Rune to change his appearance, and changed the color of the Chilong battle suit to white, put away the Panshan knife, and hung the sword gourd on his waist.
In an instant, the sword cultivator of Yushu Linfeng was born
After all, this is the territory of Wanmo Ridge, and it is a bit troublesome to act with his original appearance. Although he has been promoted to Shenhai now, in the vast Kyushu, there are many people who are stronger than him. He will not be arrogant enough to think that he is already invincible in the world .
To be less troublesome, naturally try to be as low-key as possible.
Set up a sword light and swept it forward.
Along the way, from time to time, you can meet scattered Zerg tribes. Many Zerg tribes are quite powerful. Lu Ye has a little understanding of how bad the Kyushu insect disaster is.
This is the case in the deserted Liyuan, one can imagine what it would be like to gather people.
Walking forward for an hour, the combat achievements have increased by several hundred points.
This made him sigh with emotion. Although the environment in Kyushu is harsh, it is much easier for monks to obtain military exploits than before. Of course, the risk is relatively high.
But this is the way of practice. If you want to get something, you have to pay and take risks.
Many of the Zergs he killed along the way were from the Real Lake Realm, but he didn't meet the Zergs from the Divine Sea Realm, but that doesn't mean there weren't any.
Just like the mosquito-like Zerg he met at first, a single Zerg is nothing, but once it gathers into a cloud of insects, even he has to stay away.
Suddenly there was a fluctuation of spiritual power coming from one direction, Lu Ye turned his head to look, and saw several monks running for their lives in that direction, followed by a praying mantis bug.
The monks you will meet in this kind of place are naturally Wanmo Ridge.
In the past, Lu Ye probably wouldn't care about these people's life and death. The confrontation between the camps meant that he and the people from Wanmo Ridge would only become enemies.
But the group in the blood refining world made him feel a lot.
The biggest feeling is that the monks of the two camps can coexist peacefully, and they can also unite for one goal.
He has received the favors of many seniors in the blood refinement world, half of them are from Wanmo Ridge.
Of course, this is related to the special situation of the blood refinement world, and even more related to the state of mind of the seniors. At their level, many grievances and grievances in their youth can be wiped away with a smile.
Before leaving, many old seniors gave him their own tokens, saying that if someone under his sect bullied him, they would show the tokens to those disciples and grandchildren, but from another point of view, those seniors Why didn't the seniors ask Lu Ye to lend a helping hand when their disciples and grandchildren were in danger?
It's just that some things are hard to say clearly.
They have seen Lu Ye's abilities before, and they know that as long as Lu Ye is given enough time, he will definitely be able to reach their heights, and even surpass them.
At that time, who is his opponent in Kyushu?
The different tokens are trust and an invisible entrustment.
The trip to the blood refinement world caused some subtle changes in Lu Ye's state of mind. When he saw the monks in Wanmo Ridge before, his first thought was how to kill them.
But now it won't.
Who knows if there are any descendants of those old seniors among the cultivators in Wanmo Ridge, although the chance of this is very small.
