Chapter 1061: Chapter 420: Underground Oral Cavity (Part 3)
As expected, it’s just soil down here.
Liang Yuan used Earth Escape underground and continued to delve deeper.
At about five to six meters deep, he could no longer go any deeper.
He felt that beneath his feet was no longer soil but solid flesh.
"Just as I suspected, this is merely covered by soil."
As Liang Yuan thought of this, something else occurred to him.
"Logically, since I came through the nose of this Floating Island creature, the nose should lead to the mouth."
"Where I am now is its mouth."
"This soil could have been blown by the wind or washed by water into its mouth, but it shouldn’t have gone into the esophagus or trachea."
"I just need to move where the soil is thinner, and I’ll surely find a way into the body of the Floating Island creature."
Liang Yuan’s eyes flashed briefly, but he then frowned again.
Neither the esophagus nor the trachea are paths of blood vessels.
To find the heart, I must follow the path of the blood vessels to reach it.
Based on the biological knowledge Liang Yuan had encountered, entering the esophagus or trachea and continuing inward might lead to the lung area.
The heart and lungs are a unit and should not be far from each other.
However, the problem is that Chen Zheming mentioned how during its life, the Floating Island creature was immensely powerful, with incredibly tough flesh that humans could hardly penetrate.
If he wanted to go from the lung area to the heart area, it would be difficult to carve out a path.
"Wait, others can’t do it, but I might."
Liang Yuan’s eyes suddenly lit up, and he thought of a method.
He immediately moved swiftly using Earth Escape toward areas where the soil was thin.
After about two kilometers, the soil layer ahead began to thin.
Liang Yuan was secretly shocked.
"It only thinned after two kilometers? Does that mean this Floating Island creature’s mouth, when alive, was at least over two kilometers wide?"
Liang Yuan couldn’t imagine what kind of power could kill such a gigantic mutated creature.
He couldn’t help but think of the giant octopus crouching at the gate of Linjiang University.
Seeing that giant octopus had already left him stunned back then.
But now, being inside this Floating Island creature’s corpse, he truly understood what ’gigantic’ meant.
If this Floating Island creature were alive, even the giant octopus crawling up the university’s gate would be nothing but a snack for it.
Liang Yuan couldn’t help but lament humanity’s insignificance, becoming even more cautious of the mutated creatures of the flood.
His desire to enhance his strength grew even more intense.
Any arrogance he had after unifying Yangshan had completely vanished.
He felt as though he was back in the days just after the great flood, trapped in a building, engulfed in weakness and helplessness once more.
That sense of unease and fear urged him never to stop training, a burning desire to swiftly increase his strength.
After about another kilometer, the soil layer had thinned so much that it could no longer conceal Liang Yuan’s figure, being only about one and a half meters deep.
Liang Yuan simply emerged from the soil layer and continued forward.
As the soil layer thinned, the surrounding plants also began to vanish.
Without those phosphorescent mushrooms for illumination, it felt incredibly dark and cryptic here.
Unchanged in expression, Liang Yuan proceeded for several more hundred meters before a vast expanse of ice-blue light appeared ahead.
Liang Yuan immediately quickened his pace and soon got a closer look.
Just ahead, the soil layer had completely vanished, revealing a vast area of ice-blue ground and walls.
The ice-blue walls and land were covered by a thick layer of frost.
Liang Yuan immediately reached out to touch the frost on the ground.
A ball of Flame erupted from his palm.
Boom!
The Flame burned, quickly melting the surface frost.
With the frost melted, a layer about seven to eight meters thick revealed rock-hard chunks of flesh!
This was the actual flesh of the Floating Island corpse!
