The Last Building on Earth

Chapter 601: Indigenous People

Wang Xuan kept speeding up, stepping on the green plants and shooting towards the distance.

Here, it is impossible to travel through time and space, and make space jumps. You can only rely on speed and rush at full speed.

Wang Xuan's speed has increased to a terrifying level. Even the Supreme God can no longer see his moving figure clearly.

His divine sense kept sensing the four directions. Along the way, he silently observed many creatures living among the green plants.

These creatures, without exception, have strong life energy, fragile souls, and low intelligence.

These creatures basically act according to instinct, and the purpose of hunting is just to survive.

They prey on prey, and they will gain the life energy of the other party and become stronger, but correspondingly, their souls will be corroded by stronger life energy, and they will become more and more fragile, and they will be one step closer to death.

"If the birth of these lives is the will of the Mother Goddess, then there must be some deep meaning."

Wang Xuan was constantly observing and thinking, including the doomsday catastrophe that the Buddha in the past said on behalf of the Iron Army. This doomsday catastrophe only destroyed the seventh layer of the world, and the sixth layer of the world was still complete, including the eighth layer of the world, which seemed to be normal.

"Why does this doomsday catastrophe only target the gods on the seventh floor? If this is the will of the Mother Goddess, then why does the Mother Goddess only target the gods on the seventh floor?"

Wang Xuan felt that this might be the key, but he couldn't guess what the reason was.

Flying all the way, Wang Xuan tried his best to avoid dangerous areas. After all, although these creatures have powerful life energy, Wang Xuan cannot absorb it, so he lost interest in hunting these creatures.

After a long time, Wang Xuan also felt a little tired, and finally stopped and decided to rest for a while.

For such a long time, the distance he flew was difficult to estimate, but for the entire green continent, he was less than one-third of the distance.

"It's really troublesome. It's impossible to jump in space here. It takes a long time to just cross this green continent."

Although Wang Xuan has reached the peak state of "Da Tian", he is also full of helplessness in this eighth-level world. The world here is so stable that even the existence of "Da Tian" cannot travel through time and space.

During the break, Wang Xuan sat cross-legged on a plant. There was a buzzing sound from afar. It was a group of creatures with cicada wings that appeared in the distance and were approaching him.

These creatures were not big in size. They had six almost transparent cicada wings on their backs. They had bee heads and snake bodies. They were all black in color with a lot of yellow round spots on their surfaces. They vibrated their cicada wings and made a buzzing sound. They were rushing towards him quickly.

Obviously, they noticed Wang Xuan and regarded him as prey and wanted to hunt him.

Wang Xuan looked small in size, about the same size as them. In addition, Wang Xuan was restraining his energy, which made him look even weaker. In their eyes, this was a suitable prey that could be easily hunted.

Wang Xuan could not absorb the life energy in their bodies and had no interest in them. He could sense that they had life energy of almost "heavenly" level in their bodies. Unfortunately, this life energy was equivalent to chronic poison for the soul.

Wang Xuan did not make a move. The red ghost appeared silently and slapped these low-level creatures one by one.

Afterwards, Wang Xuan activated the defensive power of Huangquan on the surface of his body, covering himself completely to resist the invasion of those life energies.

These bee-headed and snake-bodied creatures were killed, and the huge life energy in their bodies burst out, first rushing towards Wang Xuan. After being unable to enter Wang Xuan's body, these life energies began to slowly dissipate and return to the nature of heaven and earth.

After these life energies completely dissipated, Wang Xuan put away the defensive power of Huangquan, stood up, looked into the distance, and continued on his way.

Wang Xuan kept going in the direction he had locked on before. When he stopped again, a beautiful and spectacular river appeared in front of him.

The surface of the river was faintly emitting a faint white light. From a distance, it looked like a dream.

Wang Xuan stood on a patch of green plants and looked at the river. He found that countless elf-like creatures were flying on the surface of the river.

This creature was only about ten centimeters long, with a pair of wings as thin as cicada wings on its back. It looked like a human man or woman, and looked exquisite and perfect to the extreme, like a fine masterpiece of God, like the legendary elves.

Wang Xuan showed a look of surprise on his face, watching these elves dancing on the river, they seemed very happy. These dancing elves were male and female combined, flying and spinning continuously. Wang Xuan understood that these elves were mating.

They were immersed in their own world, and no elf paid attention to Wang Xuan's appearance.

Wang Xuan did not disturb them, but just rested and observed these elves silently.

Soon he discovered a phenomenon. After completing the mission, the male elves among the elves flying in the air began to twitch all over, the wings behind them converged, and the bodies that were originally faintly glowing began to dim, and they fell down one after another and fell into the river below.

Wang Xuan was slightly startled when he saw it. In just a short time, a large number of male elves floated on the river below.

Wang Xuan sensed these falling elves, and their life energy dissipated, their souls disappeared, and they died just like that.

"After the union, these male elves will die?" Wang Xuan was a little surprised. You must know that the life energy in these elves is not weak, at least it is at the level of the limit of gods. He did not expect that they would die after just one union.

Those female elves did not die after being combined, but they would slowly fall to the river below. Wang Xuan watched them enter the river, shrink their bodies, roll up into a ball, like a cocoon, and quietly attach themselves to the river. Plants in the river or under the river bed.

"It seems that this is how they give birth to the next generation." Wang Xuan sighed. He had nothing to do and continued to pay attention to these elves. What surprised him was that the female elves who rolled themselves into cocoons actually had something inside them. Soon the cocoon bubbles were discharged one after another.

A large number of pearl-like cocoon bubbles were discharged from these cocoons. After these cocoon bubbles were discharged, the female elves who turned into cocoons died one after another.

It only took about ten minutes for a large number of cocoon bubbles to be discharged, and new elves appeared inside, struggling to break open the cocoon bubbles. These little elves were swimming in the water, and Wang Xuan could feel their newly born life essence. Qi is not powerful, but it can prey on many smaller creatures in the water. By devouring these small creatures, they can obtain their life essence, allowing the life essence in their bodies to rapidly expand and become more powerful.

As the life essence becomes more and more powerful, these little elves are also growing at a speed visible to the naked eye. Soon they will be able to surface, flutter their wings and fly.

Wang Xuan watched all this silently, watching as the male and female elves that flew out of the river gradually began to combine again. When the union ended, the male elves among them would fall to death, while the female elves would enter the water and curl up. A cocoon is formed and a new generation of elves begins to be born.

Wang Xuan watched the whole process silently. He did not expect that the life span of these elves was so short. From birth to death, an elf did not even take half a day.

It seems that they were born to reproduce the next generation. This is their only mission.

"What is the meaning of the existence of these lives? From birth to death, life energy is obtained day and night. After death, this life energy returns to nature..."

Wang Xuan was deep in thought. He had been thinking about why there would be no catastrophe on the eighth floor. He was carefully comparing the seventh and eighth floors. He had never been able to figure out the reason before. Now he was watching these little elves live and die in just a matter of days. , suddenly thought of a question.

From entering the eighth level to now, although all the creatures he has seen are powerful, their unified souls are fragile, and their lifespan will never be too long. Their lives are limited.

But the gods are different. Each one has a powerful soul. Even if the body is broken into pieces, the soul can still exist and can find a new body to regenerate at any time. Even some powerful existences who have been dead for an unknown number of years can be resurrected and come back.

Thinking of this, Wang Xuan's heart was slightly shaken.

"Could this be the reason?" Wang Xuan murmured: "Because the life span of the creatures on the eighth level is very short, and the gods on the seventh level are basically immortal... Could it be that the real purpose of this catastrophe... …Don’t want to see immortal beings?”

Wang Xuan vaguely felt that maybe he had captured some clues.

"There has always been a legend that immortality is about competing with the sky, and will be jealous of the sky. Therefore, in ancient times, there was a saying that immortals need to survive tribulations. From the perspective of nature, the energy of these heavens and earth as a whole is one In the great cycle, living beings are born and obtain energy from nature. After death, this energy returns to nature, just like living water, with an endless supply..."

"And the immortals gain energy, so they can live forever and exist forever. As long as they don't die, this energy will never return to nature. For the nature of the world, it is equivalent to being deprived of a share of energy..."

"If the number of immortals is rare, it may not be a big deal, but the number of gods is quite large..."

Wang Xuan thought that not to mention the true gods, main gods, or supreme gods of the seventh-level world who were basically immortal, even the false gods of the sixth-level world could basically live for a long time.

"Could it be said that it is really for this reason that this catastrophe will come to the seventh level world, kill these immortals, and let the energy they obtain return to the nature of heaven and earth?"

"If the Mother Goddess is this building, then the energy obtained by the gods actually comes from the Mother Goddess. The more gods there are, the more powerful the energy they obtain. However, these energies cannot return, which means that the Mother Goddess is divided up. The energy will become larger, because of the catastrophe, this seems to make sense. "

Wang Xuan thought thoughtfully, if this is the reason, it can be said that the gods who can live forever will be the mortal enemies of the Mother Goddess.

But these gods can also be said to be the children of the Mother Goddess, which is full of contradictions.

"If that's true, why would the Mother Goddess be willing to give birth to a child who can live forever? It's hard to understand. Maybe the truth is not what I guessed."

Wang Xuan shook his head. It was difficult to understand. He had rested enough. He got up and left here. He rose into the sky and passed by this vast and beautiful river. The place where these elves lived only occupied a very small part of this river. Wang Xuan saw this There are also huge water creatures in the river, and their bodies contain more terrifying life energy. The most powerful life among them is no longer inferior to the energy in his body.

However, no matter how powerful they are, their lifespan is already determined. If they don't live long enough, they will die because their souls are corroded and destroyed by life energy.

After passing the river, Wang Xuan continued to go far away. On the other side of the river, there were still patches of green plants, among which tall green trees gradually began to appear.

Between these green trees, there were also a large number of mounds of varying sizes.

These mounds were only two or three meters high, and the big ones were more than ten meters high. They were densely packed and spread among the trees and green plants.

Wang Xuan suddenly noticed that there were holes on these mounds, and the holes were covered by tree trunks.

When Wang Xuan saw it, his heart suddenly moved. These tree trunks were cut very smoothly, and both ends were cut off. They were tightly tied together with green vines, which looked like a simple wooden door.

"The creatures here are very low in intelligence. How can they make tools? These connected tree trunks look a bit like they were made by humans..."

Wang Xuan stopped immediately. He understood that the creatures he had seen before were not very intelligent and could not use these tree trunks to make such wooden doors. Could there be intelligent life here?

With this idea, Wang Xuan hid his figure and stopped on the branch of one of the big trees, looking down.

Soon he saw a primitive-looking dwarf crawling out of a cave in one of the earth mounds.

This dwarf was only half the height of a normal human being, wrapped in animal skins, and looked like a primitive man. He held a sharpened piece of wood in his hand, and it seemed that he used the sharpened wood as a weapon.

Behind this dwarf, a second similar dwarf crawled out, and then a third...

A group of dwarves crawled out of the cave one after another. Compared with the lower life forms he had seen before, the life essence in these dwarves was not as strong as Wang Xuan had imagined. The life essence in their bodies was only equivalent to the limit level of the Supreme God.

Through his divine sense, Wang Xuan immediately discovered that the interior of these earth mounds had been hollowed out long ago, and there were caves hidden underneath.

The underground of this area was the nest where these dwarves lived.

In addition to these dwarves who came out, there were still many dwarves hidden in the nest below, but most of these dwarves were children and the elderly, weak, women and children.

"Sure enough, this world is not just a few low-level creatures. These dwarves should be the intelligent race living here, but they are still in a relatively primitive state."
