bǎi mì yī shū ！
百密一疏！
A single oversight can lead to a thousand mistakes!
cǐ shí cǐ kè ， suǒ yǒu rén de mù guāng ， dōu bèi yǎn qián jī liè de dà zhàn xī yǐn zhù ， suí zhe nà xiē mó tóu de yuán bīng yuè lái yuè duō ， xiū shì zhè biān zì rán bù kě néng shì ruò wú dǔ 。【 quán wén zì yuè dú 】
此时此刻，所有人的目光，都被眼前激烈的大战吸引住，随着那些魔头的援兵越来越多，修士这边自然不可能视若无睹。【全文字阅读】
At this moment, all eyes were fixed on the intense battle before them. As more and more demonic reinforcements arrived, the cultivators couldn't afford to ignore the situation. Under Lin Xuan's command, teams of cultivators rushed to aid.
zài lín xuān de mìng lìng xià ， yī duì duì de xiū shì yě qián wǎng yuán zhù 。
在林轩的命令下，一队队的修士也前往援助。
Rumbling sounds echoed incessantly as法宝s flew across the battlefield, 灵光 danced through the air, and the dark, pallid demonic aura spread wildly in the void.
hōng lōng lóng zhī shēng bù tíng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， dàn jiàn fǎ bǎo zòng héng ， líng guāng fēi wǔ ， huì àn cāng bái de mó qì yì zài xū kōng zhōng bù tíng de sì lüè zhe 。
轰隆隆之声不停传入耳朵，但见法宝纵横，灵光飞舞，晦暗苍白的魔气亦在虚空中不停的肆掠着。
As time passed, more people joined the fray, their cultivation levels skyrocketing. Apart from the old monsters at the realm of渡劫, cultivators and 天魔 from the元婴 to 分神 stages were all engaged in combat.
suí zhe shí jiān de tuī yí ， shuāng fāng tóu rù le gèng duō de rén lì ， jìng jiè yì shì yuè lái yuè lí pǔ ， chú le dù jié jí bié de lǎo guài wù ， qí yú de xiū xiān zhě yǔ tiān mó ， cóng yuán yīng dào fēn shén ， yǐ dōu tóu rù zhàn dòu le 。
随着时间的推移，双方投入了更多的人力，境界亦是越来越离谱，除了渡劫级别的老怪物，其余的修仙者与天魔，从元婴到分神，已都投入战斗了。
Meanwhile, 魔螺山 and 云隐山 continued to clash, beams of light piercing through the sky, bringing destruction everywhere. At this moment, cultivators were like ants; a moment's distraction could mean their immediate annihilation.
ér mó luó shān yǔ yún yǐn shān ， hái zài bù tíng de duì hōng ， guāng shù chuān kōng ， dài lái huǐ miè wú shù ， zài zhè yī kè ， xiū shì yì rú lóu yǐ ， shāo bù liú shén ， jiù huī fēi yān miè le qù 。
而魔螺山与云隐山，还在不停的对轰，光束穿空，带来毁灭无数，在这一刻，修士亦如蝼蚁，稍不留神，就灰飞烟灭了去。
No one could afford to lose!
shéi dōu shū bù qǐ ！
谁都输不起！
Suddenly, an eerie horn blared across the heavens, and dark demonic clouds appeared in sight, buzzing loudly. These clouds were composed of countless demonic insects.
tū rán ， cāng liáng de hào jiǎo shēng xiǎng chè tiān dì ， yī duǒ duǒ yǒu hēi de mó yún chū xiàn zài le shì xiàn lǐ ， wēng míng shēng dà zuò ， nà mó yún jìng rán shì yóu wú shù mó chóng zǔ chéng dì 。
突然，苍凉的号角声响彻天地，一朵朵黝黑的魔云出现在了视线里，嗡鸣声大做，那魔云竟然是由无数魔虫组成地。
These insects had bizarre shapes. They were no more than an inch long, with bodies resembling locusts but heads like tiny dragon heads, spewing out demonic aura.
zhè xiē mó chóng xíng zhuàng gǔ guài yǐ jí 。
这些魔虫形状古怪以极。
Though their fangs were small, they looked ferocious, their cold light piercing through the air as they lunged forward.
zhǎng bù guò cùn xǔ ， zhǎng zhe huáng chóng yì bān de shēn tǐ ， rán ér tóu lú què shì yī mí nǐ de jiāo lóng shǒu jí ， kǒu pēn mó qì 。
长不过寸许，长着蝗虫一般的身体，然而头颅却是一迷你的蛟龙首级，口喷魔气。
"Earth Dragon Insects!"
liáo yá suī rán mí nǐ ， xíng zhuàng què zhēng níng yǐ jí ， hán máng sì shè ， è hěn hěn de pū guò lái le 。
獠牙虽然迷你，形状却狰狞以极，寒芒四射，恶狠狠的扑过来了。
A cultivator's voice rang out in alarm. Lin Xuan turned to see a young woman around twenty-two or twenty-three years old with a beautiful face and at the late 分神 stage.
“ dì jiāo chóng ！”
“地蛟虫！”
It was Fairy Ruyan!
xiū shì zhè biān chuán lái jīng hū ， lín xuān huí guò tóu lú ， què shì yī èr shí yú suì de nǚ zǐ ， róng yán xiù lì ， fēn shén hòu qī 。
修士这边传来惊呼，林轩回过头颅，却是一二十余岁的女子，容颜秀丽，分神后期。
"How is it that you recognize these strange insects, Fairy?"
ruò yán xiān zi ！
若颜仙子！
"I report to our alliance leader, Earth Dragon Insects are one of the ten famous demonic insects in the Outer Demonic Realm. They are vicious and eat anything. I have seen them mentioned in ancient texts; we must not be careless," said Cloud Ruyan with a serious expression on her face. The Yun family was well-versed in controlling insects, so they had more knowledge about these demonic creatures than most.
“ zěn me ， zhè zhǒng qí chóng xiān zi rèn shí ？”
“怎么，这种奇虫仙子认识？”
"Can you handle this?"
“ qǐ bǐng méng zhǔ ， dì jiāo chóng nǎi shì tiān wài mó yù hè hè yǒu míng de shí dà mó chóng zhī yī ， shēng xìng cán rěn ， wú wù bù shí ， qiè shēn céng zài diǎn jí shàng jiàn guò ， wàn wàn dà yì bù dé 。” yún ruò yán liǎn shàng mǎn shì níng zhòng zhī sè ， yún jiā yuán běn jiù shàn cháng yù chóng zhī shù ， duì yú zhè xiē mó chóng de xiāo xī 。 zì rán liǎo jiě dé bǐ yì bān rén qīng chǔ 。
“启禀盟主，地蛟虫乃是天外魔域赫赫有名的十大魔虫之一，生性残忍，无物不食，妾身曾在典籍上见过，万万大意不得。”云若颜脸上满是凝重之色，云家原本就擅长驭虫之术，对于这些魔虫的消息。自然了解得比一般人清楚。
"Our clan may be outnumbered, but I can lead the other cultivators to give it a try." After a moment's hesitation, Cloud Ruyan continued, "Very well. It is your request, and if we fail, I will send reinforcements."
“ nǐ kě yǒu bǎ wò duì fù ？”
“你可有把握对付？”
Lin Xuan smiled in relief, saying, "Thank you for your assistance."
“ guāng shì wǒ men yún jiā ， kě néng shì dān lì báo ， dàn qiè shēn kě yǐ dài lǐng zú zhōng xiū shì ， shì shàng yī shì de 。” yún ruò yán lüè yī chí yí ， rú cǐ zhè bān de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ lǐ 。
“光是我们云家，可能势单力薄，但妾身可以带领族中修士，试上一试的。”云若颜略一迟疑，如此这般的声音传入耳朵里。
"Thank our alliance leader."
“ hǎo ， nà jiù yǒu láo xiān zi ， ruò shì lì yǒu bù dài ， lín mǒu zì rán huì pài rén jiē yīng de 。” lín xuān liǎn shàng lù chū xīn wèi zhī sè ， rú cǐ zhè bān de shuō 。
“好，那就有劳仙子，若是力有不殆，林某自然会派人接应的。”林轩脸上露出欣慰之色，如此这般的说。
Cloud Ruyan bowed gracefully before leading thousands of Yun family cultivators through the crowd.
“ duō xiè méng zhǔ 。”
“多谢盟主。”
Unlike ordinary cultivators, they did not summon their treasures but instead tapped on their waists, sending spirit beast pouches flying to their heads.
yún ruò yán yíng yíng yī fú ， suí hòu jiù dài lǐng yún jiā shù qiān xiū shì yuè zhòng ér chū 。
云若颜盈盈一福，随后就带领云家数千修士越众而出。
The bag mouths turned inward, and buzzing sounds filled the air as colorful insect swarms emerged from within. The Earth Dragon Insects had weaknesses, but these were beyond Cloud family's control, so they relied on their expertise in driving insects.
yǔ xún cháng xiū shì bù tóng 。 tā men méi yǒu jì chū zì jǐ de bǎo wù ， ér shì shuāng shǒu zài yāo jiān lián pāi ， yí gè gè de líng shòu dài fēi dào le tóu dǐng shàng miàn 。
与寻常修士不同。他们没有祭出自己的宝物，而是双手在腰间连拍，一个个的灵兽袋飞到了头顶上面。
Popping noises echoed as the demonic insects summoned by the Yun family not only numbered in the thousands but also included various types. This clan was renowned for its insect control; with thousands of elite members attacking together, it truly shook the heavens and earth.
suí hòu dài kǒu dào zhuǎn ， wēng míng shēng jiē lián chuán rù ěr biān ， wǔ yán liù sè de chóng qún yóu lǐ miàn fēi le chū lái 。
随后袋口倒转，嗡鸣声接连传入耳边，五颜六色的虫群由里面飞了出来。
However, these insects were useless against Earth Dragon Insects.
wǔ xíng xiāng shēng xiāng kè ， zhè dì jiāo chóng zì rán yì shì yǒu ruò diǎn de ， rán ér què fēi yún jiā suǒ néng zhǎng wò ， suǒ yǐ tā men jiù yòng zì jǐ zuì wèi shàn cháng de qū chóng shù yìng fù 。
五行相生相克，这地蛟虫自然亦是有弱点的，然而却非云家所能掌握，所以他们就用自己最为擅长的驱虫术应付。
The spirit beasts they controlled were scattered in an instant.
dàn wén pī lǐ pā lā de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， yún jiā jì chū de mó chóng bù jǐn shù liàng bù sú 。 zhǒng lèi yì shì fán fù ， gāi jiā zú bù kuì shì yǐ qū chóng wén míng de ， cǐ shí zú zhōng shù qiān jīng ruì yì qǐ chū shǒu ， dàng zhēn tiān dì yě yào wèi zhī biàn sè 。
但闻噼里啪啦的声音传入耳朵，云家祭出的魔虫不仅数量不俗。种类亦是繁复，该家族不愧是以驱虫闻名的，此时族中数千精锐一起出手，当真天地也要为之变色。
More demonic beasts joined the fray next.
rán ér miàn duì dì jiāo chóng què gēn běn méi yǒu yòng tú 。
然而面对地蛟虫却根本没有用途。
Unlike the low-level demons they encountered in the endless sea of demons, these new beasts not only numbered in the thousands but also had significantly higher levels than those used for reconnaissance.
tā men suǒ jià yù de líng chóng 。 qǐng kè jiān jiù bèi chōng le yí gè qī líng bā luò 。
他们所驾驭的灵虫。顷刻间就被冲了一个七零八落。
Like a river breaking its banks or a sea flooding, countless cultivators were overwhelmed by this sudden onslaught.
ér zhè hái méi yǒu jié shù 。
而这还没有结束。
The day after tomorrow, on Wednesday at 2 PM, Huan Yu will host an online Q&A session. You can ask about the game or any other questions there. Follow "blcxgame" for details and sign up. I look forward to answering your questions!
jiē zhe gèng duō de mó shòu ， yě jiā rù le dòu fǎ zhī zhōng 。
接着更多的魔兽，也加入了斗法之中。
Lin Xuan's heart sank as he realized he had fallen into a trap. He now faced two choices: abandon these outlying cultivators, or send more reinforcements—risking further losses.
yǔ tā men zài wú biān mó hǎi suǒ yù jiàn de dī jiē mó shòu bù tóng ， zhè xiē xīn chū xiàn de mó shòu bù jǐn shù liàng zhòng duō ， děng jiē yì yuǎn fēi nà xiē yòng yú shì tàn de mó shòu kě bǐ 。
与他们在无边魔海所遇见的低阶魔兽不同，这些新出现的魔兽不仅数量众多，等阶亦远非那些用于试探的魔兽可比。
Struggling with his decision, Lin Xuan was a brave and resolute cultivator. Delayed action often led to chaos. Although he favored the first option for its impact on morale, it would be too devastating.
rú jiāng hé jué dī 。 shì dà hǎi dào guàn ， qǐng kè jiān ， jiù jiāng chū zhàn de xiū shì yān mò le jìn qù 。
如江河决堤。似大海倒灌，顷刻间，就将出战的修士淹没了进去。
He had to take a chance!
míng tiān 。 yě jiù shì xīng qī sān xià wǔ liǎng diǎn ， huàn yǔ huì jǔ xíng yí gè yǔ dà jiā miàn duì miàn de xiàn shàng zuò tán huì ， dào shí hòu yóu xì huò zhě de wèn tí dōu kě yǐ wèn wǒ ， guān zhù bǎi liàn shǒu yóu wēi xìn “blcxgame”， yè miàn xià fāng jí kě bào míng ， huān yíng lái wèn wǒ wèn tí ó ！
明天。也就是星期三下午两点，幻雨会举行一个与大家面对面的线上座谈会，到时候游戏或者的问题都可以问我，关注百炼手游薇信“blcxgame”，页面下方即可报名，欢迎来问我问题哦！
"Let's all attack together and capture the main demon stronghold."
lín xuān xīn zhōng “ gē dēng ” yī xià ， àn jiào bù hǎo ， zì jǐ zhòng jì ， rú jīn yǒu liǎng gè xuǎn zé ， yào me zhuàng shì duàn wàn ， jiāng zhè xiē chū zhàn de xiū shì fàng qì ， yào me jiù zhǐ yǒu pài gèng duō de xiū shì jiù yuán ， rán ér què yǒu kě néng bào xīn jiù huǒ ， zhèng zhōng dí rén de xià huái 。
林轩心中“咯噔”一下，暗叫不好，自己中计，如今有两个选择，要么壮士断腕，将这些出战的修士放弃，要么就只有派更多的修士救援，然而却有可能抱薪救火，正中敌人的下怀。
But before he could finish speaking, a loud rumbling shook the ground as 云隐山脉 began collapsing.
lín xuān xīn zhōng nán yǐ jué zé ， dàn tā bì jìng shì yǒng gǎn guǒ lì de xiū xiān zhě ， dāng duàn bù duàn fǎn shòu qí luàn ， suī rán lǐ zhì shàng gèng qīng xiàng yú dì yī zhǒng xuǎn zé ， dàn nà yàng zuò ， duì shì qì de dǎ jī tài lí pǔ 。
林轩心中难以抉择，但他毕竟是勇敢果厉的修仙者，当断不断反受其乱，虽然理智上更倾向于第一种选择，但那样做，对士气的打击太离谱。
How was this possible? The protective barrier of万仞盘 hadn't been breached yet. Lin Xuan stared in shock; the explosion came from within Cloud Hidden Mountain—was there an enemy inside?
pīn le ！
拼了！
Even if so, with its vast expanse and various array formations protecting it, how could such a place be easily destroyed?
“ dà jiā yì qǐ chū shǒu ， gěi wǒ gōng xià yù wài tiān mó zǒng duò 。”
“大家一起出手，给我攻下域外天魔总舵。”
Lin Xuan was at a loss. He didn't know that thousands of black stone demons had entered Cloud Hidden Mountain under the cover of battle.
rán ér huà yīn wèi luò ， hōng lōng yī shēng jù xiǎng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， zhěng gè dà dì dōu zài chàn dǒu ， yún yǐn shān mài jū rán kāi shǐ bēng tā xiàn luò 。
然而话音未落，轰隆一声巨响传入耳朵，整个大地都在颤抖，云隐山脉居然开始崩塌陷落。
These creatures weren't particularly powerful but due to their innate abilities, they ignored array formations and integrated with the mountains, making them excellent siege weapons.
zěn me kě néng ， wàn rèn pán de hù zhào míng míng hái méi yǒu bèi gōng pò ， lín xuān chēng mù jié shé ， nà bào zhà shì lái zì yún yǐn shān de nèi bù ， nán dào yǒu dí rén hùn jìn lái le ？
怎么可能，万仞盘的护罩明明还没有被攻破，林轩瞠目结舌，那爆炸是来自云隐山的内部，难道有敌人混进来了？
They were highly valuable in the Outer Demonic Realm as well.
kě jí biàn yǒu ， yún yǐn shān mián yán shù shí wàn lǐ ， hái yǒu gè zhǒng zhèn fǎ jìn zhì shǒu hù ， yòu zěn me shì nà me róng yì pò huài diào de ？
可即便有，云隐山绵延数十万里，还有各种阵法禁制守护，又怎么是那么容易破坏掉的？
But now, Void didn't care about such details. As long as Cloud Hidden Mountain was breached, losing tens of thousands of black stone demons wasn't a concern.
lín xuān bǎi sī bù dé qí jiě ， tā zì rán bù zhī dào ， chèn zhe dà zhàn de yǎn hù ， yǐ yǒu chéng qiān shàng wàn de de hēi shí mó jìn rù yún yǐn shān le 。
林轩百思不得其解，他自然不知道，趁着大战的掩护，已有成千上万的的黑石魔进入云隐山了。
Order their self-destruction.
zhè xiē jiā huo de shí lì bìng bù rú hé ， dàn yīn wèi tiān fù de yuán gù ， néng gòu shì zhèn fǎ jìn zhì wèi wú wù ， qiě yǔ shān shí róng wéi yī tǐ ， nǎi shì zuì hǎo de gōng chéng lì qì 。
这些家伙的实力并不如何，但因为天赋的缘故，能够视阵法禁制为无物，且与山石融为一体，乃是最好的攻城利器。
Due to their integration with the mountain, the protective formations became useless and disintegrated. Mountains turned into rubble during this process, catching many cultivators off guard and sweeping them away.
zài yù wài tiān mó zhōng yì shì shí fēn bǎo guì dì 。
在域外天魔中亦是十分宝贵地。
Fallen!
dàn cǐ shí cǐ kè ， xū wú dāng rán gù bù liǎo nà me duō ， zhǐ yào néng jiāng yún yǐn shān gōng pò ， sǔn shī jǐ shí wàn gè hēi shí mó yòu suàn dé le shén me 。
但此时此刻，虚无当然顾不了那么多，只要能将云隐山攻破，损失几十万个黑石魔又算得了什么。
Even Cloud Hidden Mountain's main peak was not spared; beams of light shot out from its surface. However, few cultivators fell victim to this sudden crisis—after all, those on the main peak were at least 分神 level, battle-hardened veterans who wouldn't fall so easily even in a rush.
mìng lìng tā men zì bào 。
命令他们自爆。
...
yóu yú yǐ yǔ shān shí róng wèi le yī tǐ ， shǒu hù de jìn zhì zài zhè zhǒng qíng kuàng xià gēn běn jiù méi yǒu yòng tú ， fēn bēng lí xī ， wú shù de shān shí huà wèi le wǎ lì ， zài zhè guò chéng zhōng ， gèng bù zhī dào yǒu duō shǎo xiū xiān zhě cuò shǒu bù jí ， bèi tū rán fā shēng de wēi jī xí juǎn jìn qù 。
由于已与山石融为了一体，守护的禁制在这种情况下根本就没有用途，分崩离析，无数的山石化为了瓦砾，在这过程中，更不知道有多少修仙者措手不及，被突然发生的危机席卷进去。
A single mistake could ruin everything. Lin Xuan was both shocked and angry by the result.
yǔn luò ！
陨落！
Meanwhile, in the ancient demon palace of the Outer Demonic Realm, Void's laughter echoed nonstop as other demon lords were visibly pleased.
lián lín xuān jiǎo xià de yún yǐn shān zhǔ fēng yě bù néng miǎn sú ， cóng dì biǎo pēn shè chū yī dào dào guāng zhù ， rán ér zài zhè guò chéng zhōng yǔn luò de xiū shì què qū zhǐ kě shǔ ， bì jìng néng yǒu zī gé zài zhǔ fēng shàng de ， zuì chà yě shì fēn shén jí bié de lǎo guài wù 。
连林轩脚下的云隐山主峰也不能免俗，从地表喷射出一道道光柱，然而在这过程中陨落的修士却屈指可数，毕竟能有资格在主峰上的，最差也是分神级别的老怪物。
"Stone demons, you've done well. Order all your elite forces to come out; I want a decisive battle here, wiping out the main forces of cultivators and beastfolk."
shēn jīng bǎi zhàn ， qiě xiū wèi bù sú ， jí biàn shì fā cāng cù ， yě méi yǒu nà me róng yì yǔn luò 。
身经百战，且修为不俗，即便事发仓促，也没有那么容易陨落。
"Yes!"
……
……
The demon lords responded with thunderous agreement, sending clouds of demonic insects into action. This time, they wouldn't just watch but would lead their subordinates in person.
yī zhe bù shèn mǎn pán jiē shū ， zhè yàng de jié guǒ ， lín xuān zì rán shì yòu jīng yòu nù 。
一着不慎满盘皆输，这样的结果，林轩自然是又惊又怒。
This was far from over.
fǎn guān yù wài tiān mó ， nà huāng gǔ mó diàn zhōng ， xū wú hā hā dà xiào de shēng yīn bù jué yú ěr duō ， qí yú de mó zūn yì shì xǐ xíng yú sè 。
反观域外天魔，那荒古魔殿中，虚无哈哈大笑的声音不绝于耳多，其余的魔尊亦是喜形于色。
Rumbling sounds grew louder as the belly of 魔螺山 suddenly burst open, revealing countless strange demonic warships.
“ shí mó ， zhēn yǒu nǐ de ， chuán lìng xià qù ， jīng ruì jǐn chū ， wǒ yào yī zhàn ， jiāng xiū shì yǔ yāo zú de zhǔ lì jìn miè yú cǐ chù 。”
“石魔，真有你的，传令下去，精锐尽出，我要一战，将修士与妖族的主力尽灭于此处。”
Standing atop these ships were numerous heavily armored demon warriors. Unlike ordinary 天魔, these warriors exuded no pressure; it was impossible to determine their cultivation levels. The heavy weapons they held were also extremely peculiar.
“ shì ！”
“是！”
Clearly, they were formidable.
mó zūn men hōng rán yīng nuò ， yī duǒ duǒ mó yún hū xiào ér chū ， zhè yī cì ， tā men bù zài zuò bì shàng guān ， ér shì qīn zì dài lǐng shǒu xià ， wài chū zhēng zhàn 。
魔尊们轰然应喏，一朵朵魔云呼啸而出，这一次，他们不再作壁上观，而是亲自带领手下，外出征战。
Ding, ding…
zhè hái méi yǒu wán 。
这还没有完。
Strange sounds continued to reach their ears as cultivators turned to see a shocking sight: some peaks of 魔螺山 had transformed into giants standing upright. (To be continued…)
A single oversight can lead to a thousand mistakes!
At this moment, all eyes were fixed on the intense battle before them. As more and more demonic reinforcements arrived, the cultivators couldn't afford to ignore the situation. Under Lin Xuan's command, teams of cultivators rushed to aid.
Rumbling sounds echoed incessantly as法宝s flew across the battlefield, 灵光 danced through the air, and the dark, pallid demonic aura spread wildly in the void.
As time passed, more people joined the fray, their cultivation levels skyrocketing. Apart from the old monsters at the realm of渡劫, cultivators and 天魔 from the元婴 to 分神 stages were all engaged in combat.
Meanwhile, 魔螺山 and 云隐山 continued to clash, beams of light piercing through the sky, bringing destruction everywhere. At this moment, cultivators were like ants; a moment's distraction could mean their immediate annihilation.

Suddenly, an eerie horn blared across the heavens, and dark demonic clouds appeared in sight, buzzing loudly. These clouds were composed of countless demonic insects.
These insects had bizarre shapes. They were no more than an inch long, with bodies resembling locusts but heads like tiny dragon heads, spewing out demonic aura.
Though their fangs were small, they looked ferocious, their cold light piercing through the air as they lunged forward.
"Earth Dragon Insects!"
A cultivator's voice rang out in alarm. Lin Xuan turned to see a young woman around twenty-two or twenty-three years old with a beautiful face and at the late 分神 stage.
It was Fairy Ruyan!
"How is it that you recognize these strange insects, Fairy?"
"I report to our alliance leader, Earth Dragon Insects are one of the ten famous demonic insects in the Outer Demonic Realm. They are vicious and eat anything.
