Chapter 178 Mushroom Forest
Chapter 178 Mushroom Forest
The underground space here is extremely spacious, with no visible ceiling, only a thin layer of smoke and dust.
There was a faint smell of sulfur in the air, and the temperature was quite high; even an average person wearing only a single layer of clothing wouldn't feel cold.
There were stripes of red light on the ground every tens to hundreds of meters.
Because there is still uncooled magma there.
Just then, a spherical creature rolled down a hillside to Cheng Feng's left, interrupting his observation.
After it stopped on the ground, it stretched out its body.
It looks a bit like a hybrid of a millipede and a lobster.
This is the ball shrimp unique to the glaciers of the Kunlun Mountains; it is covered with a shiny black shell.
It has a pair of curved antennae on its forehead, similar to the whiskers of a lobster.
Its body, though stretched out, was slightly hunched, and beneath it were countless tiny claws.
It is over five meters tall, a truly enormous creature.
It seemed to have noticed Cheng Feng, but did not approach or provoke him.
Instead, it used its numerous tiny claws to quickly crawl away from there.
Cheng Feng turned his gaze back to the distant crater where remnants of the Demon Kingdom lay.
"What terrible things did the Demon Kingdom do to be buried so deep by the earthquake?"
Speechless, Cheng Feng had no choice but to continue on his way.
On the way to the crater, more creatures unique to the underground world began to appear.
For example, the Earth Guanyin, who loves digging holes, secretly watches Cheng Feng from a distance, hiding at the entrance of her hole.
There were also enormous fire lizards that flew across the lava without any hesitation, some nearly twenty meters long.
Cheng Feng was interested in collecting a specimen, but he didn't want to actively hunt one.
Some clueless people just came up and grabbed it.
If everyone is pragmatic, then it's not unreasonable for Cheng Feng to let them off the hook.
As Cheng Feng approached the volcano, the lava on the surrounding ground decreased significantly, and mushrooms of various sizes began to appear.
These mushrooms are called ground mushrooms, named after the mushrooms that grow underground.
Most of them are about the size of a thumb, and the largest is no larger than the palm of your hand.
Moreover, there were so many of them that they covered the ground in dense clusters.
Cheng Feng could sense through his bloodline ability that they were non-toxic and harmless.
Yunnan's mushrooms far surpass those of Yunnan in both variety and taste, so Cheng Feng had no interest in collecting them.
However, as the only food source for subterranean creatures, ground mushrooms are still highly favored by small mammals.
At least Cheng Feng saw many unknown creatures scurrying around in the mushroom grove.
Leaving this cluster of ground mushrooms, a magnificent mushroom forest begins to appear ahead.
Each mushroom here is over ten meters tall, with a huge cap that is a dazzling vermilion color and is also dotted with golden spots.
The canopies are over six meters in diameter, both spacious and thick, forming another form of plane when placed side by side.
Cheng Feng walked up to the mushroom forest and looked at the mushroom bodies that resembled a maze.
We decided it was better to go up the mountain, otherwise we might waste a lot of time in the mushroom forest.
But before reaching the mushroom cap, Cheng Feng activated his Boundless Demon Eye.
In an instant, one giant mushroom after another, along with a layer of soil on the ground, began to disappear.
Cheng Feng only stopped harvesting the mushrooms after a large section of the original mushroom grove had been cleared out.
"Let's take these. It wouldn't be nice if we disrupted the ecological balance of this underground world."
After sprinting across the open space, Cheng Feng quickly climbed onto the cap of the giant mushroom.
Inside the imaginary space, Hu Bayi and his companions were touring around Evil Luohai City.
When they have free time, they don't want to miss the opportunity to explore this ancient city with a history of thousands of years.
"The streets of Evil Luo Sea City are orderly and well-organized, with no chaos in sight. This shows how powerful the people of the Demon Kingdom were back then!"
As the group walked along the clean streets, Yang Xueli couldn't help but sigh.
"Yes, this is a city from thousands of years ago. Even now, some places are probably not as good as it."
Fatty Wang's words were actually an understatement; let alone a city of this size.
In this day and age, there are still many people who are displaced.
However, such a comparison is unfair, since the Demon Kingdom controlled all the local resources at that time.
It is inherently unfair to compare the peak of one era with the end of another.
"I wonder how Lao Cheng is doing. Everyone, remember to keep your weapons safe."
If Lao Cheng needs help, we can't afford to let him down at a crucial moment.
Hu Bayi was always thinking about Cheng Feng, so he never let his guard down.
Just then, hundreds and thousands of giant mushrooms silently appeared outside the city of Evil Luo Sea.
Yang Xueli, who was about to respond to Hu Bayi's words, froze.
Noticing Yang Xueli's expression, everyone followed her gaze and were dumbfounded.
"I've discovered that Lao Cheng puts anything surprising he sees into the imaginary space."
Seeing this, Hu Bayi was able to calmly offer his criticism.
I've already used up all the shocks I've experienced along the way, or rather, I've developed immunity to them.
Everything related to Cheng Feng was automatically attributed to what was right.
He wouldn't be surprised if Cheng Feng moved the entire Demon Kingdom ruins in later.
"I wonder if such a big mushroom will taste good."
Fat people always have something that's different from what you'd expect.
"Let's go take a look. It'll be a good opportunity for us to see the imaginary space outside the ancient city."
At Yang Xueli's suggestion, the group arrived at the edge of the ancient city.
We're not far from the giant mushroom now; the details of the mushroom are visible in the blue firelight on the horizon.
But what was attracting their attention was no longer the giant mushroom.
Because in their field of vision, the ground was covered with countless Pure Vision Agamas.
Moreover, a snake mother, over four meters tall with a snake tail and a human body, was rushing towards the mushroom forest from all directions.
"The Pure Vision Agama and the Snake Mother must be the original inhabitants of the Imaginary Dimension."
Yang Xueli remained calm. Cheng Feng had promised to guarantee their safety here, so even though they were surrounded by a sea of snakes,
She felt no emotion whatsoever.
"Not only that, the flames on the left and right sides of the sky, if I'm not mistaken, are the transformed forms of the Dapu Ghost Insects."
On one side is boundless karmic fire, on the other is utterly impenetrable divine ice.
Hu Bayi also had good mental fortitude and quickly analyzed some things.
Watching the two talk so eloquently, Ak and Chu Yi secretly admired them.
Those who can befriend a superhuman like Cheng Feng are no ordinary people either.
"Look, something else has appeared."
Following the direction the fat man pointed, everyone saw a huge red lizard carcass appear next to the mushroom forest.
Neither the Pure Vision Agama nor the Snake Mother approached.
"Well, Lao Cheng has another decorative item."
Seeing this, Hu Bayi jokingly said to everyone.
In the underground world, Cheng Feng flicked the scalding blood from the Fish Intestine Sword onto the mushroom cap, then sheathed the crimson sword.
"I'm so grateful to have someone so oblivious to the fact that they brought me a specimen!"
