Chapter 567 Strange And Desperate Situation
Jonathan was currently at the true Summerbank Abyss. Just as Sofus said, the further someone went into the Summerbank Abyss, the less thick the fog became. Currently, there wasn’t any fog in sight at where he was standing. However, even though the fog was gone, the environment inside Summerbank Abyss was very different from the one outside.
The most obvious difference was the flora. Outside of Summerbank Abyss, pine trees were a common sight on Summerbank Mountain. Mountainous vegetation could also be seen everywhere.
However, after he entered Summerbank Abyss, all the plants Jonathan came across were ones he had never seen before. That roused his attention. In the many years he led Asura’s Office to conquer Chanaea, he had stepped foot into every corner of the country.
Because of that, he was very knowledgeable about many things. Yet, none of the plants in Summerbank Abyss, whether in terms of their smell or shape, were familiar to him. Some plants even had an unnatural green on them.
Am I still in Chanaea? Jonathan was shocked by the surrounding flora. In front of him, a ping-pong ball-sized beetle was slowly climbing up a short tree that was slightly taller than a person.
Because of his God Realm cultivation level, he had already achieved the ability to look at things in great detail. So, as he stared at the bug, he studied the intricacies in the creature’s appearance.
Even though the beetle appeared clumsy, its climbing speed was extremely fast. On both sides of the beetle’s jaws were two pincers. When it ate, the beetle only needed to bite forcefully with its pincers to cut off a palm-sized leaf before quickly nibbling on it.
The thing that intrigued Jonathan the most was the fact that he could sense faint spiritual energy pulsing from the beetle.
How is this possible? Curiously, Jonathan covered the fingers on his right hand with a layer of spiritual energy as armor before grabbing the beetle.
When he did that, the beetle struggled violently.
Suddenly, he felt a jolt of pain coming from his finger. The bug’s leg had actually jabbed into his skin.
Then, the beetle used its sharp pincers to bite Jonathan’s finger fiercely.
Shocked, he quickly pressed on the beetle and squashed it like an egg.
An extremely foul smell rapidly spread from his hand and disturbed his five senses.
He frowned as he lowered his head to stare at the bug’s corpse. What the hell’s going on with this bug? Sure, the layer of armor I made with spiritual energy was thin, but a bug shouldn’t be able to pierce through it. Still, I saw the bug pierce its leg through my skin and go into my flesh, like a knife cutting into a pudding. It was like nothing was obstructing the bug at all. My armor made of spiritual energy was as weak as a balloon that could easily be popped by a needle.
Just as Jonathan was still observing the bug, numerous rustling sounds could be heard around him.
He turned around and saw another bug that looked exactly like the one he had killed on the original tree. It lifted its pincers and waved them continuously, looking as though it were searching for something.
Then the beetle jumped straight toward him.
He dodged, but at once, dozens of the same black beetles began to rush toward him.
With no other choice, he activated a Grandmaster Realm force field.
Immediately, everything within a five-meter radius of him froze as though someone had pressed the pause button. Hundreds of beetles were rendered immobile in the air.
Jonathan swiftly expanded his spiritual sense by fifty meters in all directions, and he immediately detected countless amounts of beetles rushing toward him from the ground and the trees.
