Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Chapter 1125 - 605: Empty? (Part 3)

”It worked!” Xu Xin’s eyes flashed with shock as he turned to Xu Ying, ”Does that mean we can do it on the ground too...”

”Yes, but the area we can control isn’t large, probably just the area covered by the World Tree’s canopy,” Xu Ying thought for a moment and replied.

That’s already very strong!

The World Tree’s canopy already mostly covers the entire Crystal City, right?

Excited, another thick and sharp root burst out from the ground!

Sweeping a few giant insects off the ground!

So strong!

”Hmm...”

Xu Xin suddenly frowned.

He felt exhausted.

It came on fiercely, like a tidal wave!

Even his legs felt slightly weak.

Li Wenxi quickly supported him, worried, ”What’s wrong? Why suddenly...”

”Ah, you need to control yourself, older brother!”

Xu Ying also hurried over to support him.

”You just controlled the dome’s roots, and now you’ve controlled them twice in a row again; you must be at your limit, right? Controlling the World Tree isn’t easy. Even with my super-mutated endurance and over three hundred years of Spiritual Power, I’m feeling tired.”

Xu Xin was indeed physically and mentally exhausted now.

Counting the time he controlled the dome’s roots to drill down, he had moved the World Tree’s roots a total of seven times.

This number of times is enough!

Xu Xin smiled.

Despite his exhaustion, he was in a great mood.

”Still smiling! You’re so pale!” Li Wenxi, supporting Xu Xin, turned to Xu Ying, ”Is this from fatigue or is he injured?”

”It’s just fatigue. His body is overworked,” Xu Ying wasn’t worried, ”He just needs a little rest.”

”No need.” Xu Xin took out a few blue-grade fruits and ate them, ”A little recovery, and I’ll be fine. Can we go over there and take a look now?”

Xu Xin looked towards that main vine bundle.

Surrounded by a dozen World Tree roots, that main vine remained the most conspicuous.

It’s much thicker than the surrounding dozen World Tree roots!

Even thicker than the main trunk of the World Tree.

”Yes, let’s go take a look. It’s safe now.”

She said, grabbing their hands again, and they teleported once more.

The three of them instantly arrived beside the main vine.

”Your teleportation is really convenient...” Xu Xing marveled.

”Hmm? Wait, aren’t you unable to teleport to places you haven’t been before?” Li Wenxi suddenly recalled this, feeling a bit puzzled, ”You just now directly teleported us to the underground world, didn’t you?”

Back then, from the underground world to the dome, Xu Ying couldn’t even teleport the three-thousand-meter distance.

From the ground to the underground world, it’s much further than three thousand meters.

”Ordinarily, it’s not possible. But here, it’s influenced by the World Tree,” Xu Ying explained, examining the main vine bundle up close, ”I’m teleporting in my own home; how could there be any problem with that?”

”Ah... that makes sense!”

”Let’s go, let’s go inside and take a look,” Xu Ying said, again grabbing their hands.

Teleport.

They directly entered the underground prison.

The familiar metal prison, the familiar spiral descending stairway.

”Oh, so this is the underground prison!”

Xu Ying surveyed this vast, spiraling underground prison in amazement.

”This material is all meteoric iron? It’s all meteoric iron! Those alien bastards are so extravagant...”

Li Wenxi tugged on Xu Xin’s sleeve, ”Xu Xin, is this the prison you mentioned? But... why are all these cells empty?”

Xu Xin was deeply perplexed.

He had thought that as soon as they entered, they would immediately hear the obnoxious calls of the giant insects in the prison.

Because when they left last time, this place was filled with giant insects and beasts.

But...

Empty?

It was empty.

The entire underground prison, those cells that had previously held feral beasts...

Not a single beast was inside!

As far as the eye could see, it was completely empty; not a single mutated creature remained.

Where did all those mutated creatures go?
