[What kind of operation is this? Fighting amongst themselves? Wait a minute, those wasps barely resisted; they seem to have gotten used to this pattern.]
[The Golden Feather Yin-Yang Bee: The queen bee has a pair of golden wings. You see, both wasps and black bees have normal membranous wings, but their queen bees have a pair of feathered wings.]
[A bee growing a pair of feathered wings? That seems rather eerie.]
This unique bee species can only be found in the Demon Insect Valley. If this branch is wiped out, the Golden Feather Yin-Yang Bees will likely be extinct.
Ning Xiaoxi watched as Xiao Jiu climbed onto the beehive and perched atop it. She wondered if Xiao Jiu would take the queen bee away. But since it had climbed onto the beehive, it must be different from how it treated the fireflies.
Sure enough, it wasn't long before a strange queen bee crawled out of the exit above.
That was truly a beautiful queen bee!
It is much larger than an ordinary wasp, with a solid and rounded body. A pair of very unique feathered wings extend from its back, with a bright golden color, as if condensed from the sun's rays. Each feather shimmers with a delicate metallic luster, and the tips of the feathers faintly reveal a mysterious glow.
Upon closer inspection, the feathers were not entirely smooth and flat, but rather covered with fine textures, resembling ancient and mysterious runes, and even possessing a strange flow of spiritual energy. When the queen bee gently flapped her wings, the feathers rubbed against each other, producing a delicate and crisp sound, "ding-ding! ding-ding!", which was extremely pleasant to the ear.
The queen bee's head has compound eyes that resemble two black gemstones, deep and sharp, capable of keenly observing every movement within the gu altar. On either side of its head, its antennae are long and flexible, swaying gently from time to time.
Its abdomen is also covered with a layer of golden down, each hair distinct. The segments of its abdomen are closely connected, and as it moves, these segments twist flexibly, allowing the queen bee to turn quickly and fly nimbly. At the end of its abdomen, the sharp stinger is even more awe-inspiring; the stinger is golden in color, faintly emitting an eerie glow, and is displayed so brightly that it intimidates its opponents.
The golden-winged butterfly fluttered outside the hive, constantly flapping its wings towards the queen bee, displaying its beauty and agility.
The queen bee stood steadily on the platform outside the hive entrance, then suddenly spread her wings and flew to the top of the hive with a "ding-ding! ding-ding!" sound, facing Xiao Jiu.
Xiao Jiu and the Queen Bee exchanged glances for a moment, and then Xiao Jiu enveloped the Queen Bee with a faint spiritual energy. The Queen Bee did not resist and allowed Xiao Jiu's spiritual energy to envelop her.
Golden light began to shimmer, and the runes on the feathers began to flow rapidly, sending strange spiritual energy into the queen bee's abdomen. Soon, the end of the queen bee's abdomen began to contract rhythmically. As the contraction accelerated, a crystal-clear, faintly glowing egg slowly emerged. This egg was no ordinary egg; it was oval-shaped, with faint golden patterns on its shell, like naturally formed mysterious symbols. A thin, almost transparent layer of mucus adhered to the surface of the egg, showing no sign of drying even when exposed to air.
A large black bee crawled out of the lower exit, flew to the queen bee, caught the bee egg, hovered for a while, and then dragged the bee egg back to the hive.
"Ding ding! Ding ding!"
With a crisp sound, the Golden Feather Yin-Yang Bee followed lightly behind Xiao Jiu.
The golden-winged butterfly hovered around the golden-feathered yin-yang bee, but unfortunately, the queen bee arrogantly ignored the little butterfly.
Further in from the foot of the mountain, there is a small canyon, and the path between the two mountains leads to two places.
Xiao Jiu had basically led them around the outside area and found the nine types of Gu Kings. The eerie, terrifying valley filled with a stench and teeming with insects left a deep impression on Ning Xiaoxi.
Now that we're finally about to escape that situation, the Spirit Crystal Heart Shield has brightened several degrees.
Ning Xiaoxi had seen yellow sandstorms before and had even spent time in the desert, but what was a black sand desert like? It looked just like this.
Actually, calling it a desert is a bit of an exaggeration. It's just a small valley with no flowers, grass, trees, or ponds on the ground, only a stretch of black sand.
[Was the last one in an environment like this? The Black Desert?]
It's a black gecko; only black geckos can survive in this environment.
【A gecko?】 Ning Xiaoxi thought for a moment. Indeed, this was a small animal she used to be very afraid of. She had been here for so long, but she had never actually witnessed the power of this creature.
"Boom!"
Just as Ning Xiaoxi was wondering what the black gecko looked like, a huge creature rolled out of the black sand and charged straight at Xiao Jiu.
【This, this, you're saying this is a gecko? It's more like a monitor lizard!】
The giant lizard that rolled out was enormous, nearly ten zhang long, with its thick limbs like stone pillars, firmly supporting its heavy body. Its entire body was covered with a layer of hard and rough scales, which were a dark brown color similar to the sand of the Black Desert, interspersed with mottled black patterns, allowing it to blend perfectly into its surroundings. Black sand could be seen flowing down between the gaps in the scales.
The monitor lizard has a broad, flat head. On its triangular skull, a pair of eyes, like two deep rubies, gleam with a cold, sharp light. Its nostrils are large and flat, and when its gaping maw opens, it reveals two rows of sharp, curved teeth, each one incredibly razor-sharp, like daggers, gleaming with a cold light. Its tongue is long, thin, and forked, frequently extending and retracting. Its tail is thick and powerful, almost as long as its body, and its silky flicks create bursts of sand.
The sound of footsteps echoed throughout the valley as a massive body charged forward with a chilling aura, raising its foot to slam down on Xiao Jiu's head.
Xiao Jiu sprang up, nimbly dodging the descending giant foot, and climbed up its thick leg to its head. Its small tail slammed heavily against its forehead between its eyes on the triangular skull.
"boom!"
The raised foot slammed heavily onto the black sand, sending up clouds of dust.
"Crack!" The skull above the eyebrows made a sound of shattering.
The monitor lizard didn't even make a sound before collapsing to the ground, lifeless.
A black and gold light flashed silently and struck Xiao Jiu directly on the head.
Just as Ning Xiaoxi was about to speak, she saw a small black gecko stop a foot in front of Xiao Jiu. The gecko had a small golden circle on its forehead, which was very unique.
[This is the Black Gold Gecko, the most premium material in the entire insectoid race for refining the Gu King.]
