In the bottomless Underground Passage, hundreds of thousands of Bug Clan Family members surged like a black torrent, rushing towards the Geocentric World.
The passage was filled with a nauseating smell of dampness and decay, as if the accumulation of ages had transformed into this pungent odor, tightly lingering around every single bug.
Occasionally, a few strange flickers of light struggled to squeeze through the rock crevices, like peeks from another world.
Reflected on the hard exoskeletons of the bug swarm, they shimmered with a bizarre and mysterious glow, adding an element of the unknown to this march.
On the other side, Zhou Qi of the Underground Base opened his Bug Clan Family perspective and locked onto the Six-Order elite Four Fiends Insect Soldiers serving as the vanguard.
This elite Four Fiends Insect Soldiers, having been tempered by the Devouring Method, had undergone an astonishing transformation in size compared to ordinary Four Fiends Insect Soldiers, now as large as an adult Tibetan Mastiff.
As the vanguard, it led the rest of the Four Fiends Insect Soldiers to shuttle rapidly through the Underground Passage, leaving trails of afterimages, and the whistling wind around them was like sharp knives, cutting through the silent air.
Through the thousands of kilometers of long passage, they, relying on their tenacious will and absolute loyalty to Zhou Qi, dared not stop for a moment.
Finally, as dawn broke in the outside world, they were the first to step out of the passage and into the mysterious Geocentric World.
When the first Six-Order elite Four Fiends Insect Soldiers stepped onto the soil of the Geocentric World, a scorching Aura with a strong sulfurous smell assailed it, a unique scent mixing the heat of magma with mysterious substances from deep underground, inspiring awe.
It vigilantly rotated its massive compound eyes, every subtle movement keenly captured.
Subsequently, large numbers of Bug Clan Family members poured out of the passage like a tide, rapidly arranging themselves in well-trained formations near the exit, forming a tight defensive perimeter.
Uka, the commander who once galloped across battlefields in the previous era, now stood majestically in the center of the formation.
It surveyed the strange and dangerous surroundings, its heart a mix of emotions.
This was a world it had failed to conquer in the previous era, even with many Titans holding the line; although it was now completely unrecognizable, those ancient memories still surged within its heart.
The glory and fires of war from the past seemed to still flicker before its eyes, making it both awed and excited.

After the Bug Clan Family successfully entered the Geocentric World, the commotion generated by those hundreds of thousands of bugs instantly broke the tranquility of this mysterious region.
The surrounding Snail Monsters were startled by this sudden clamor, and the previously quiet caves instantly became noisy.
Those massive Snail Monsters, some awakened from their slumber, others slowly crawled out from the depths of their nests, their huge bodies slowly wriggling on the ground, causing the surrounding rocks to tremble slightly.
On their triangular heads, their mung bean-sized eyes gleamed with fierce light, and they let out muffled roars, as if issuing a warning to the invaders.
The Six-Order Four Fiend Insect Soldiers launched the first attack; they charged towards the Snail Monsters like mad dogs, brave and fearless, without hesitation.
Each Four Fiends Insect Soldiers exuded a strong black Evil Qi, like devils emerging from Hell, and the jointed weapons in their hands gleamed with a cold light, drawing sharp arcs in the air.
Their movements were agile and swift, working in perfect coordination; some Four Fiends Insect Soldiers specifically attacked the leg joints of the Snail Monsters, attempting to incapacitate them; others leaped onto the backs of the Snail Monsters, piercing their soft parts with sharp limbs.
Facing the massive Snail Monsters, they showed no fear, relying on their agile movements and powerful strength to rampage through the Snail Monster horde.
A dozen Snail Monsters had not even had time to put up effective resistance before they were surrounded by the Four Fiends Insect Soldiers in the bug tide.
The Four Fiends Insect Soldiers' attacks were as fierce as a storm; they frantically bit and gnawed at the Snail Monsters' bodies with their limbs, green blood splattering everywhere, and soon, these Snail Monsters turned into piles of white bones.
Zhou Qi saw this scene through the Bug Clan Family's perspective, and his blood instantly rushed to his head.
He stared intently at the battlefield, his eyes revealing determination and excitement, and he immediately gave the order without hesitation: “Occupy the snail nest!”
This command, as if sounding the horn for a general assault, sent hundreds of thousands of various Bug Clan Family members surging like a bug tide; the ground continuously shook, the sound echoing for miles, as they swarmed towards the Snail Monster's nest; even a charge of millions of ancient armies would be no more than this.
The Six-Tier Spiked Horned Tyrant Insects, relying on their strong physiques and massive spiked horns, were like heavy tanks, crashing directly into the Snail Monsters with an unstoppable Aura.
As they ran, the ground trembled; their massive spiked horns gleamed with cold light under the sunlight, striking the Snail Monsters' carapaces with immense force.
Each impact produced a dull thud, and some Snail Monsters were even directly flung away, crashing heavily to the ground.
Cracks appeared on the carapaces of the impacted Snail Monsters, and green blood seeped from the fissures; they writhed in pain, letting out roars.
Meanwhile, the Six-Stage Zhu Yan Devil Insects circled in the air, their massive wings flapping, creating a strong airflow.
Seizing the opportunity, they swooped down fiercely, their speed like lightning.
Their sharp scythe-like forelegs and long venomous stingers could instantly tear the Snail Monsters' skin and flesh.
The Zhu Yan Demon Insect's stingers contained potent venom; once they pierced a Snail Monster's body, the venom rapidly spread, causing the Snail Monster immense pain.
The Snail Monsters also refused to be outdone; relying on their massive size and hard carapaces, they fiercely resisted the Bug Clan Family's attack.
Those giant Snail Monsters were even more like moving fortresses; every swing of their tentacles or stomp on the ground triggered a strong tremor.
They opened their mouths filled with sharp teeth, attempting to swallow any approaching Bug Clan Family members whole.
A giant Snail Monster targeted a Six-Order Four Fiend Insect Soldiers that was attacking its leg; it suddenly lowered its head and opened its large mouth, trying to crush the Four Fiends Insect Soldiers.
The Four Fiends Insect Soldiers reacted quickly, nimbly jumping away, avoiding the fatal blow.
However, the Snail Monsters were numerous, and they cooperated to form a solid defensive line.
Some Snail Monsters tightly protected their bodies with their carapaces, making it impossible for the Bug Clan Family to attack;
Others attacked approaching Bug Clan Family members with their tentacles; the tentacles had immense power, and once hit, the Bug Clan Family would be sent flying.
The roar of battle echoed throughout the Geocentric World, and the brutal slaughter between the two sides was exceptionally fierce.
