"Let me tell you beforehand, if you can't properly maintain the security of our so-called safe zone, I'll be the first to kick you out!" The old Flame Dragon waved his fist, appearing extremely arrogant, and said forcefully to the mutated alien creature.
Even if he didn't look like that, I believe the mutant alien wouldn't have made any other moves.
"Hehe, don't worry, everyone. Leave the safety of the safe zone to us. We live here anyway, so we don't have any other demands." Actually, Liu Ziming was also very curious. He wanted to see what kind of state these guys would take. Did they not have any other forms besides the sapling? "Hehe, I'm curious. You said you've lived for thousands of years. So, besides this form, can you transform into any other form?" Upon hearing Liu Ziming ask him this, the mutated alien creature immediately seemed a little unhappy.
Because Liu Ziming's statement about 28 is truly idiotic. They can transform into countless things, even into anything human, as long as they like. "I can transform into any shape, any object, including the appearance of you humans, but I have no interest in that. I only like my current form?"
Upon hearing this mutated creature's words, Liu Ziming's face showed an embarrassed expression, because he knew that his question was really a bit brainless. Why did he have to ask about things that the other person didn't like? "Hehe, boss, let's leave this matter to these guys. Anyway, they like to stay here, and we can do some other things." For some reason, the giant ape elder said these things to his boss, Liu Ziming, which gave Liu Ziming a strange feeling.
Given the Giant Ape Elder's cautious nature, he would never do such a thing. This would clearly be shifting the crisis onto someone else, which is inconsistent with the Giant Ape Elder's character.
"Haha, you guys should go back and rest. I don't need your food or water. We can live however we like, and that's enough!" The deformed creature looked extremely excited, waving its thin branches as if expressing its feelings. "Holy crap, these guys are even more arrogant than us! No wonder they're ancient monsters that have lived for thousands of years!"
The seven-colored deer mumbled something, looking quite unhappy. These mutated alien creatures held a powerful attraction for him, fueled by his intense curiosity. "Hehe, boss, you said these guys can transform into any shape. I want to know when they transform?" Upon hearing the seven-colored deer's words, Boss Liu Ziming rubbed his forehead, looking utterly helpless.
Actually, Liu Zimeng, the leader, didn't have much affection for these mutated alien creatures, since these guys had been mutated.
"Actually, when these guys change is none of our business. If you're curious, you can join them."
Upon hearing what the boss, Liu Ziming, said, the Seven-Colored Deer's expression immediately became extremely awkward. He didn't want to stay outside, as the wind and rain would really affect his handsome image.
But these guys had no idea that the spatial anomalies had caused species mutations that were beyond their comprehension.
"Then I'll have to trouble you all. We family members don't want to worry about the defenses of the safe zone. We'll leave it to you now. If you handle it properly, you'll have a chance to stay; otherwise, you know what will happen?" Liu Ziming didn't want to waste any more time here, so he turned and left, because he had clearly sensed the spatial anomalies and felt uneasy. "Hehe! Don't worry, there won't be any problems! I guarantee you'll be satisfied!"
Those mutated creatures instantly transformed into human-like forms, though their bodies were quite small, like dwarfs, which greatly surprised Liu Ziming.
"Holy crap, it seems the spatial anomalies really have caused species mutations. This is not a good sign?"
Thinking of this, Liu Ziming became even more worried. If the spatial anomaly caused species mutations, it would also affect his safe zone, which was no small matter. "Boss, why do you look so anxious? Have you discovered something wrong?"
When Liu Ziming returned to the room, the old giant ape looked rather melancholy.
He noticed that Liu Ziming had never been so serious before; his expression was grave, and he didn't even seem to want to acknowledge him.
"Senior, our safe zone may be affected. The space itself is experiencing anomalies, causing mutations in species. This is not a good sign."
Upon hearing what their leader, Liu Ziming, said, everyone's faces showed utter horror. They had never imagined that a space they had stayed in for so long would experience such an anomaly. What kind of bizarre phenomenon was this?
The Slime Mirror's expression became even more bizarre, because Liu Ziming's energy and stamina recovery speed after absorbing his crystal box was indeed extraordinary, and he seemed quite satisfied. "Stinky spider, are you experiencing any adverse reactions right now? If so, you'd better say so, don't try to tough it out alone?"
Although he heard the slime's concern, Liu Ziming had no time to pay attention to it. After all, the spatial anomaly had caused the mutation of species, and he had to investigate the cause. "Hehe, my body has fully recovered, there are no problems at all, and it's even better than before?"
Although the Slime Mirror clearly sensed that Liu Ziming was merely going through the motions, it was still somewhat pleased, since the guy wasn't taking it lightly. "Boss, take a look! All the species outside, including our environment, have really changed! Some things have increased dozens of times in size overnight! What's causing this?" The Flame Dragon Elder's expression became bizarre and horrified as he rushed in, frantically reporting everything to his boss, Liu Ziming.
Chapter 466 An Even More Supernatural Space
"Senior, you said that all the species outside have mutated and increased in number dozens of times? How is that possible? You're not joking, are you?"
Cat Angel simply didn't believe anything the Flame Dragon Elder said, because it all sounded too fantastical and bizarre; he probably wouldn't believe it even if you beat him to death.
But the facts are right in front of everyone, leaving them no room for disbelief.
"Senior, you said this phenomenon has just appeared and is mutating very quickly, is that right?"
Seeing the serious expression on his leader Liu Ziming's face, the Flame Dragon Elder was stunned and didn't know what to say.
Because when he returned from outside, the trees in the area had indeed grown dozens of times, while the thousand-year-old ghost vine wall he had woven remained unchanged, so he felt very strange. "Boss, how do you know? Did you see it with your own eyes? These things are too eerie. Could something unexpected be happening to our safe zone?" The Seven-Colored Deer's expression was extremely exaggerated, and its body was trembling uncontrollably.
He had just had a few days of peace and quiet, and if he were to return to an environment like World of Warcraft, he would probably break down.
"I'm afraid this is something we can't control. Since there's been an anomaly in the space, there will definitely be even stranger phenomena. Everyone needs to be careful." Although Liu Ziming couldn't figure out why there was an anomaly in the space outside, causing changes in species, he knew that this matter was far from simple.
So he keeps reminding everyone to be careful. As for what will happen, he doesn't know yet. This is the only thing he can do.
"Boss, could our safe zone just disappear like this? If that's the case, all our previous efforts might have been in vain?"
Although the giant ape elder was extremely familiar with the forest, everything before him left him bewildered. He wondered if his previous efforts had been in vain, which was why he had done what he did. "Heh, giant ape elder! All of this is truly beyond our comprehension and control. It seems we can only let nature take its course." The changes before them were far too bizarre and too fast, leaving them no time to react.
But everyone knew that their leader, Liu Ziming, wasn't someone who would let things run wild; he would definitely come up with a solution. "Perhaps the best thing for everyone right now is to stay together and not separate?"
Besides this, Liu Ziming couldn't think of a better solution, because everything was changing too strangely, and he couldn't find the specific reason for it for the time being, so he could only let things develop on their own.
"Hehe, little guys, you'd better be prepared. All the changes you're seeing don't seem to be accidental. You might be injected into another supernatural space. If I'm not mistaken, that's how it should be?" Just when Liu Ziming was at a loss, the voice of the Evil God Emperor rang out again, sounding somewhat weak, constantly giving him hints and appearing particularly worried.
Liu Ziming was completely taken aback that the remnant spirit of the Evil God Emperor could sense everything happening before his eyes, and his heart was filled with boundless astonishment. "Senior, although all of this is not accidental, do you know what caused it? Are we guys really that unlucky?" Having finally obtained some information, Liu Ziming was determined not to give up and kept asking questions.
But the voice of the Evil God Emperor never returned, because his lingering spirit now consisted of only two divine robes, and his energy absolutely wouldn't allow him to remain like this. "Holy crap, if that's really the case, it seems I really need to prepare in advance, otherwise there might be big trouble?"
Hearing the Evil God Emperor's warning, Liu Ziming's heart was filled with endless worry. Entering a more supernatural world was certainly not a good omen for them. "Will our boss really do that? Could the Evil God Emperor be wrong?"
Liu Ziming didn't hide anything from everyone and told them about the Evil God Emperor's warning, but everyone seemed a little skeptical.
However, at this moment, the scene outside became even stranger. Everything was growing wildly and at a speed far exceeding their expectations. "Holy crap, is this really a sign of a change in the world? This safe zone was personally chosen by the boss, it shouldn't be wrong, right?" Senior Flame Dragon's expression became incredibly complex as he watched everything growing wildly outside, his expression constantly shifting.
It wasn't just the Flame Dragon Elder who had this strange thought; everyone else shared it. Everything had happened so suddenly, they couldn't accept this reality. "I can't worry about that now. It seems I have to do everything in my power to rebuild a safer space, otherwise these people might all be gone for good."
Thinking of this, Liu Ziming's expression became extremely serious. He really hadn't considered such a problem before. The space could actually cause anomalies; he had actually encountered such a strange thing.
Having already experienced many strange things, Liu Ziming felt he could handle even more. "Boom!"
The once peaceful sky was suddenly struck by thunder, accompanied by countless flashes of lightning, making the already unsettling atmosphere even more eerie. "My God, the weather has changed so quickly! Could it be that the Evil God Emperor really guessed correctly?"
The giant ape elder's heart clenched violently, because everything before him (Li Hao) filled him with fear. Although he had awakened the bloodline of the ancient ape, his own strength was ultimately limited.
Although the others had also awakened their bloodlines, especially the cat angel, he simply couldn't accept what was happening before him.
"Don't panic, everyone. As long as we stay together, there shouldn't be any major problems. Even if space shifts, we'll enter another space." Although Liu Ziming said this, he was also extremely panicked inside. He had never seen anything like this before.
"Boss, wait a minute! This must be related to those mutated creatures we discovered before, right? How come our safe zone was peaceful before they appeared, but these strange phenomena started happening after they showed up?" The giant ape elder seemed to have realized something, his expression constantly shifting.
Chapter 467 The Madness Must Be Stopped
Upon hearing the giant ape elder's reminder, the eldest brother, Liu Ziming, also sensed that something was amiss.
"Holy crap, how come I never thought of those guys? That's how it is, when they weren't around, there was never anything unusual about our safe zone?" As soon as Liu Ziming thought of this, he rushed out like the wind. He had to stop those crazy actions.
Because those mutated alien creatures were a completely new concept to him, and if he didn't stop them, his safe zone might not be safe anymore. "You guys had better stop your crazy actions, or I'll wipe you all out right now!"
At this moment, Liu Ziming had become extremely bloodthirsty. If these guys continued their crazy actions, he would really take action at any time.
But those guys seemed not to hear, continuing to sway their bodies and change their shapes, appearing particularly frenzied. "Hahahaha, I didn't expect the air in this safe zone to be so good! I'm going to absorb as much as I can!"
Seeing these deformed alien creatures growing wildly and relentlessly, the leader, Liu Ziming, stopped hesitating and immediately took action. "Looks like you won't know what regret is until I teach you a lesson."
Just as Liu Ziming was about to get angry, the Flame Dragon Elder suddenly appeared beside him, looking incredibly arrogant.
Since the Flame Dragon Elder had already awakened the bloodline of the ancient ancestral dragon, his personality was one of fearlessness in the face of power, so his appearance at this time was only natural. "Boss, leave these guys to me, I refuse to believe that my Heavenly Fire can't burn them to death!"
Seeing the powerful performance of the Flame Dragon Elder, the eldest brother, Liu Ziming, didn't say anything more and simply stepped aside.
After all, fire is probably the best way to deal with these mutated alien creatures, and it can burn a large area of them, thus stopping their rampaging behavior. "Blazing Palm!"
The Flame Dragon Elder no longer held back with its flames. With a loud shout, its palms instantly unleashed boundless flames, shooting directly at the morphing alien creatures. "Holy crap, even I felt a bit wary facing the Flame Dragon Elder's flames?"
Seeing the Flame Dragon Elder spewing flames at the deformed alien creatures as if they were free, Liu Ziming's heart clenched painfully. "Aaaaaaahhhhh!"
Screams erupted instantly, accompanied by crackling sounds of burning, and the deformed alien creatures were instantly covered in wounds. "Stop your stupid actions, or I'll wipe you all out right now!"
The eldest brother, Liu Ziming, saw the Flame Dragon Elder spew flames at him and received an unexpected effect, instantly easing the expression on his face.
If I rely solely on myself, it will likely consume a lot of energy and cause me unexpected harm again. "Senior, I'll help you. Since these guys are so crazy, why don't we go crazy too?"
The cat angel actually flapped its transparent wings and instantly took flight, directing the flames spewed by the old fire dragon directly at those deformed alien creatures.
With the help of the cat angel, the old fire dragon's flames became even more intense, far beyond the control of those morphing alien creatures. "We know we were wrong, please let us go! We know we were wrong, please forgive us!"
A series of pitiful howls instantly emanated from the flames, but the old Flame Dragon seemed not to hear them. He had made up his mind to completely cripple these guys.
If he continues to listen to these guys' sweet talk, he'll be the dumbest fool in the world, and the only one of its kind.
"If I were to trust us guys again, I'd be the biggest fool in the world. Go to hell!" The old Flame Dragon's expression turned incredibly ferocious. He would never give up until these guys disappeared.
With crackling and popping sounds, the mutated alien creatures were instantly reduced to nothingness within a short time, and the safe zone returned to its usual tranquility. "Holy crap, old man, you're insane!"
The giant ape elder looked at the devastated safe zone and couldn't help but speak.
The scene before one's eyes was so desolate, with charred trees and unidentified creatures everywhere, that it was hard not to feel a sense of melancholy.
"Senior, are you alright? You just used up a lot of your energy, you should rest for a while."
The old Flame Dragon hadn't recovered from his earlier state; his expression remained highly agitated, as if he were ready to unleash his flames at any moment. "Old man, wake up! Those deformed alien creatures have been burned to ashes; there's nothing left but endless ash. What are you going to do now?" The old Giant Ape's expression also became increasingly agitated. If it weren't for the old Flame Dragon, they would likely face an even greater crisis.
The cat angel flew back from the sky, and its transparent wings had grown even larger and were even more free-flowing.
"Boss, look at my wings, aren't they beautiful? I didn't expect them to become more and more agile the more I use them, and my body even started to fly involuntarily!" Cat Angel asked with some delight when she saw her boss, Liu Zimeng.
Liu Ziming was completely taken aback; the Cat Angel's evolution speed had improved so much again. It could now grow transparent wings on its back, and these wings could be easily retracted—it was truly bizarre. "Beautiful, indeed very beautiful! And those wings are very practical. Without them, the steel crisis wouldn't have been resolved so easily."
Hearing his leader Liu Ziming constantly praising him, Cat Angel felt particularly happy. After all, he was satisfied to be able to make his due contribution to this small team.
However, Liu Ziming didn't think that way. Although the immediate crisis was resolved, he knew that an even greater crisis might be waiting for them.
"It seems I must improve my strength and accelerate my evolution, otherwise things could get much worse when facing an even greater crisis?" Having stopped the mutated alien creatures' rampage with the help of the Flame Dragon elder, the leader, Liu Ziming, felt a lingering sense of fear.
Chapter 468 Going with the flow is the best strategy
"Boss, it's strange, isn't it? The walls of this ancient ghost vine-woven city didn't change at all under the heat of the Flame Dragon Elder's flames. Isn't that bizarre?" The Seven-Colored Deer touched the walls woven from the ancient ghost vines, its face full of surprise.
Because everything in front of us is too strange. This thousand-year-old ghost vine is also a type of vegetation, so how come it hasn't changed at all?
"Hehe, that's what makes it so special. Otherwise, I wouldn't have chosen it to build our fence in the first place~?" Seeing that the eldest brother, Liu Ziming, was deliberately acting mysterious, the Seven-Colored Deer simply ignored him.
He had no idea that his boss, Liu Ziming, was acting entirely out of necessity, believing it to be the best strategy. "It seems changing one's fate isn't such a simple matter?"
Seeing the houses before him reduced to ashes by the flames of the old Flame Dragon, Liu Ziming was deeply moved.
Since he regained consciousness, he has been thrown into this survival game, and he has been struggling and fighting, but nothing has changed much.
Although its own strength has improved somewhat, the speed of its evolution still seems unsatisfactory.
Although Liu Ziming inherited everything from the Evil God Emperor, he was still not satisfied. After all, he needed more energy and power to break through everything. "Everyone, don't just stand there. Let's hurry up and pack these things up. We need to live in the safe zone. This won't do." Hearing what their leader, Liu Ziming, said, everyone felt that what he said made a lot of sense.
After all, the current safe zone is their only means of survival. If they lose their safety, they really don't know where to go. "Let's all work together. These things shouldn't be too difficult for us." Unexpectedly, Slime was the first to step forward and started tidying up everything in front of him.
Although the vegetation scorched by the flames had a slightly burnt smell, no one complained, after all, this was the space they depended on for survival.
"Heh, do you guys really need to go through all this trouble? You've already awakened a lot of your own bloodlines, don't you know how to make full use of them?"
The reason why the leader, Liu Ziming, had everyone work together was simply to save time. After all, these guys had already awakened their bloodlines, so why not just leave them unused? It would be a waste.
Everyone looked particularly strange when they heard what their leader, Liu Ziming, said.
They mistakenly believed that using their bloodline would consume a lot of energy, and that energy recovery would be very slow in this place, which was not a wise choice.
"Hehe, every place has its own rules. If you all use your own bloodline here, it shouldn't be a big problem. Otherwise, I wouldn't have reminded everyone." Upon hearing what their leader, Liu Ziming, said, everyone's faces lit up with joy. After all, using one's own bloodline could speed up the cleanup process, so who wouldn't be happy?
Once these guys activate their own bloodline, it's a terrifying thing; they're like the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, each displaying their unique abilities.
