Zhou Qi was hesitant at this moment, unsure whether to use the Evolution Space to teleport to the Geocentric World and investigate.
He still really wanted to go and see what that dark world, unknown to the Human Race, was like.
However, Zhou Qi then thought that even with the Nine-Order Army Ant Queen constantly breeding these past few days,
and having strengthened the planetary-level life tai sui meat to Fifth-Order, his current life strength was only 21 points, which was probably just the strength of an Intermediate Warrior.
According to Moga Luo's description, there were Elder-level beings just within the Lizardmen race he belonged to.
The Geocentric World was not only home to the Lizardmen, but also countless other races and powerful, strange monsters.
With this thought, Zhou Qi dispelled the idea of going to the Geocentric World now; he would wait until his life strength reached the 25-point Elder-level threshold before going to the Earth's Core.

December 1, 2016
Current Evolution Points: 66,000,000.
Underground Base, a cave in the stone wall.
After two days of feeding, the three Little Taicang Dragons had noticeably grown several sizes.
Especially one of them, its body was like that of an adult rooster, much larger than the other two.
This larger Little Taicang Dragon was Uka, a life form that survived from the era when the Old Gods and Titans ran rampant.
He controlled an ability not possessed in the current era, a secret technique similar to a Dao, simply called the Devouring Dao.
No matter the era, besides an individual's life essence, which is like genes and basically determines a species' upper limit,
there is also energy absorption. Where does energy come from? Only from food. The more and better one eats, the stronger one becomes.
The more energy absorbed, the stronger the species will naturally be; this is beyond doubt, as energy does not spontaneously generate within normal life forms.
Uka's food intake these past few days was simply the sum of the other two's.
Devouring high-energy food daily, something unimaginable in the previous era, Uka was somewhat addicted.
If there had been such an inexhaustible supply of food in that era, they would not have invaded from another world.
Uka suddenly recalled the terrifying scene when that strange person used mysterious energy to make the Titan in the adjacent cave submit, and quickly shook his head to dismiss the thought.
I still need to escape, I must escape!
"Bang, splash." A sound like a giant whale leaping high and crashing into the water echoed, a deafening noise reverberating through the underground cavern.
Uka quickly turned his head to look at the underground lake, only to see that the lake was already in chaos.
A powerful oppressive feeling surged forward.
With a loud "crash," a strange giant creature, over ten meters tall, burst out of the water.
Its body was snake-like, yet it had huge bat wings, and its scales shimmered with a cold white light, each one the size of a pot lid.
Its head was that of a giant toad, with two lantern-like eyes emitting blood-red light, and a huge mouth opened to reveal rows of sharp, inwardly curving fangs.
Foul-smelling mucus constantly dripped from its mouth, and when the mucus fell into the water, it caused the surface to churn as if the water were boiling.
This... what is this thing! Uka stared at this giant creature, his eyes full of surprise and uncertainty. This is not a species from our era, but it is at least an ultimate-level Intermediate life form!
Immediately after, hundreds of black shadows shot out from the bottom of the lake, they were the Fifth-Order River Earl Insects.
As soon as they appeared, they waved their strong and powerful limbs, using their water control talent to churn the water's surface with layers of spray, and countless undercurrents below, demonstrating their defiance to the strange giant creature.
The giant creature seemed enraged by the Fifth-Order River Earl Insects' provocation. It flapped its bat wings, stirring up a gust of wind, and directly charged towards the countless He Bo Insect.
The Fifth-Order River Earl Insects were not to be outdone. They pushed off with their six limbs, using the water's buoyancy to quickly meet the attack.
Their tentacles struck first, their suckers opening and closing, releasing powerful spider silk, attempting to bind the giant creature.
The giant creature twisted its body flexibly, avoiding most of the spider silk entanglement, then fiercely waved the huge wings on its back, instantly stirring up a hurricane comparable to a strong typhoon.
Several He Bo Insect nearby were overturned, while the remaining Fifth-Order River Earl Insects tightened their spider silk, their tiny bodies, compared to the giant creature, erupting with powerful strength.
The remaining Fifth-Order River Earl Insects then began to climb onto the giant creature along the spider silk.
The battle grew more intense. The giant creature used the powerful water currents stirred up by its bat wings to continuously impact the Fifth-Order River Earl Insects, attempting to scatter them.
The Fifth-Order River Earl Insects, however, relied on their agile movements and tough scales, skillfully weaving through the water and on the spider silk, searching for the giant creature's weakness.
The two sides gradually became deadlocked.
Uka, who had been watching, never expected these small insects in the water to possess such strength, with hundreds of complete lower-level life forms fighting an ultimate-level Intermediate life form, and not falling behind, trading blows evenly.
He suddenly realized, wasn't this a great opportunity for him to escape?
Uka looked around. The spiky-horned insects and the fierce-looking insects were all gathered on the lake shore, preparing to face the enemy.
Now was the best time to escape. Uka saw that the cave was about ten meters above the ground, so he leaped down, landing on his back, which was covered in hard scales.
The thick scales lessened his pain. Uka glanced left and right, saw that no insects noticed him, and then bounded towards the entrance of the underground passage.
When that strange person left last time, Uka had kept his eyes on the direction he went, and indeed, the saying held true: opportunities are for those who are prepared—ah, no, for Dragons.
He completely disregarded the huge roars of the giant beast from the fierce battle between the Fifth-Order River Earl Insects and the giant beast behind him.
Uka climbed the steps one by one, frantically ascending the dark stone staircase passage.
After an unknown amount of time, Uka's body ached from climbing before he finally saw faint rays of light shining on his face.
Uka's Dragon face showed a very human-like smile. He looked at the green vines at the cave entrance, squeezed a small hole through them, just big enough for him to pass through.
As soon as he exited the cave, the dazzling sunlight stung Uka's eyes. This was the first time Uka had seen the sun since hatching from his fossilized egg.
"Eras change, Titan Beasts and Old Gods are gone, but the magnificent sun remains eternal," Uka couldn't help but exclaim.
Then, his small ears twitched slightly, and a three-dimensional sensory map formed in Uka's mind. Some creature was approaching nearby.
