Jia Yan no longer cared about what was happening on the surface.

He was soaring through the cavern!

The buzzing sound in the confined space seemed exceptionally loud.

Echoes were heard from all around.

“Where does this cavern lead?

How is it that the Northeast Wild Tiger could extract the Black Night Liquid from the boiler through just a crack?”

All of this was still a mystery to Jia Yan.

The cavern he was in was five to six meters high and seven to eight meters wide.

Jia Yan tried to keep his flight at about three meters, which was halfway up the cave, so that he had the best chance to dodge any attack from any direction!

He felt that there must be some secret at the forefront of the cavern.

Otherwise, with the Northeast Wild Tiger’s modest setup, it would not have been possible to extract the Black Night Liquid that allowed it to undergo its third mutation!

Jia Yan had a hunch.

Having undergone three mutations, he must be quite a rare specimen since every mutation had been tremendously challenging!

He even found it odd, how did creatures like centipedes manage to mutate successfully?!

Even with just one mutation, Jia Yan felt it should be hard for most creatures.

If he hadn’t undergone self-training from birth coupled with the tenacity of a human soul, he probably wouldn’t have made it through the first mutation.

How could lower intelligence creatures overcome this hurdle?

“Wait!

I overlooked a detail.

The mutated creatures I have seen are mostly arthropods like centipedes and millipedes.

These creatures are much stronger than mosquitoes!

Could that be the reason?”

Jia Yan cleared his thoughts.

He felt he was right!

Mosquitoes are Diptera insects, and most dipterous organisms are relatively weak.

So far, he has not seen any other mutated mosquitoes apart from himself.

Jia Yan was a unique one.

“Thinking carefully, I haven’t seen any mutated aerial creatures, not just those from Diptera.”

“That’s right, most flying creatures are constitutionally weaker.

Their inability to mutate can be seen as normal.

So, among birds and flying insects, even if there are plenty of accidents, am I likely the only one who has mutated three times?”

Jia Yan was confident about his uniqueness.

After all, his human soul played a significant role in surviving all three mutations.

“But what was that fiery red centipede just now?

Was it also a mutated creature?

It was more than two meters long, which is simply unexplainable.”

In terms of mutation, a regular centipede would need to mutate at least three times in order to grow to over two meters long, otherwise it wouldn’t achieve such size.

Of course, the creatures in the cavern may not explainable by mutation, they could be ancient species that evolved over time and have been surviving here!

Jia Yan continued to fly.

The more he thought about some questions, the clearer they became.

Even regarding this endless cavern, Jia Yan had some hunch!

“If it provides sustenance for such a giant centipede, the forefront of this cavern might not be as it appears now!

Creatures must also be plentiful, otherwise, it wouldn’t be able to provide the necessary food for the centipede!”

Centipedes are carnivorous creatures.

Although they occasionally eat tender leaves and algae, their favorite is still meat.

Jia Yan believes that even if the previous centipede was gigantic, it likely wouldn’t change its dietary habits, so it was probably a carnivore.

For such a massive carnivore, there must be a large food source that allows it to survive; otherwise, it wouldn’t be possible.

So, Jia Yan was sure, there must be a different sight in front of the cavern.

Even, what might unfold before his eyes could be a huge underground world of creatures!

Jia Yan’s compound eyes were filled with intense curiosity.

An unknown complex world, that’s interesting, filling his zoology-loving soul with excitement.

If he were still human, the discovery of such a giant centipede alone would create a world-shaking headline.

Of course, the current situation is even better.

Jia Yan enjoys the feeling of experiencing a secret alone!

He continued flying forward.

Just as Jia Yan flew past a formation of stalactite, under the light of the luminescent moss overhead, a metallic reflection caught his eye from a corner of the cave.

“What’s that?”

Jia Yan flew over.

“Huh?
