I can see experience bars after being transported to another world.

However, with Rek's blessing, the swarming insects showed obvious resistance to this flesh and blood. This was a unique ability of the fifth rank, which could make them immune to the pressure from the forbidden flesh and blood in front of them to a certain extent.

Moreover, while the flesh and blood were devouring the swarming worms, the swarming worms were also devouring the flesh and blood beneath them.

In this continuous cycle of mutual devouring, Rex gained a constant stream of energy, with large amounts of forbidden energy surging into his body.

He uses this power to continuously nourish the swarms of insects he has summoned.

At the same time, Rek was also sending out a continuous signal to gather more swarming insects from the depths of the earth and among the mountains. There were far more wild swarming insects wandering in this world than he had created.

Thus, with the continuous support of the swarming insects, the vast sea of ​​insects piled up layer upon layer and clung to it, forcefully suppressing the flesh's counterattack.

In just a few dozen breaths, countless swarming insects leaped over the top of the giant wall and poured down from the other side, surging into the sea of ​​blood within the inner city.

From Lu Yuan's perspective, the sight of those swarming insects cascading down from a height of nearly a hundred meters resembled a black waterfall, falling vertically from the top of the fleshy wall and crashing into the dark red sea of ​​blood, splashing up large amounts of black and red debris.

Meanwhile, the sea of ​​insects, resembling dark clouds, continued to fall from the sky, sprinkling the entire inner city like raindrops.

Those swarming insects that gather high in the sky are noticeably larger and carry a more intense pollutant load.

Where they fell, obvious pits appeared in the flesh. The insects burrowed straight into the flesh like nails, forcing the plant roots intertwined in the flesh to come and block them, barely managing to stop them.

However, this greatly weakens the attack and defense of flesh and blood, which is equivalent to opening a path for Rek and buying him time.

The swarming insects descended upon the flesh and blood of the inner city, and Rek began to command the insects to carve a path through the sea of ​​blood.

It was an extremely brutal and utterly unskilled method: to twist all the followers into a black torrent, plunge headlong into the churning sea of ​​blood in the inner city, and forcefully push them toward the Tower of Learning.

The swarming insects frantically devoured the flesh and blood in front of them. The flesh and blood kept trying to spread and seal the wound, but the insects lined up in a long line behind them, leaving a large number of insects to guard wherever they went, preventing the flesh and blood from healing.

And so, the swarming insects used their bodies to carve out a black passage inch by inch in the sea of ​​blood.

A large number of swarming insects died on this road, their corpses engulfed in flesh and blood, their black carapaces embedded in the dark red flesh.

But more insects kept surging up from behind, stepping on the corpses of their companions to continue forward without stopping for a moment.

The cycle of devouring and death between the swarming worms and flesh continued, and the width and length of the passageways constantly changed. The flesh and blood were not entirely indifferent; it was just that the newly born taboo had its sights set on the Tower of Knowledge and had temporarily ignored Rex.

Rek's humanoid silhouette was at the very center of the insect swarm, constantly shifting with the undulations of the passageway.

Lu Yuan stood atop the Tower of Learning, gazing at the distant sea of ​​blood, a sea of ​​black and red intertwined, where one direction was being covered by darkness.

It was a black, winding passage stretching from the outer city, seemingly about to be swallowed up by the flesh and blood on either side, yet it never ended. The passage was steadily approaching the Tower of Learning.

It was Rick who came, and he came for him.

Lu Yuan was taken aback for a moment.

He stood atop the tower, the cold rain lashing his skin, and a complex feeling welled up inside him—a mixture of helplessness, gratitude, and other things he couldn't quite articulate.

Even if Rex hadn't come, Lu Yuan would have had a way to escape on his own. He could have let the Sea of ​​Knowledge completely envelop the entire Tower of Learning, then open a gap in another place and throw himself out, somewhat like teleportation.

However, the area is limited. With his current abilities, moving from the inner city to the outer city is no problem at all. But now that Rek has arrived, there might still be hope for another battle.

Because at that moment, Lu Yuan had a very bold idea.

What if the coronation were to fall to Lake?

However, this idea was interrupted by another, more pressing change.

The newly born taboo hanging above the inner city seemed to have noticed Rek, the human who had intruded into its domain, or rather, the strange one.

Previously, it was constantly trying to take control of its body while attacking the Tower of Knowledge.

It's worth mentioning that the gray mist surrounding the main tower, where the figure on the wall appeared to be on the verge of collapse, could not be broken by any attack from the newly born forbidden, just as if the figure on the wall was putting on a show.

It had ignored Rex at first, but as Rex continued to advance, it finally noticed the figure.

It had completely broken free from its previous chaos and gained full control of its body. A sudden burst of black and white light erupted from its surface, turning the surrounding sky a dazzling gray-white.

Of the six polluted eyes, four opened simultaneously, their dark pupils looking down from above at the uninvited guest clearing a path through its territory.

Without any hesitation, Lu Yuan controlled the countless Knowledge Insects through the symbiotic connection, issuing them the command to help Rex.

At the same time, he couldn't just sit and wait for his doom, so he decided to make one last attempt. Authority roared, and the rift tore open wildly. The rift that had originally only hung above the Tower of Learning expanded to almost half the size of the inner city at the same moment, and a large number of weapons made of words slowly emerged from the rift of knowledge.

However, at that moment, the four eyes suddenly turned and locked onto Rex.

The next moment, flesh and blood swelled up. The entire inner city's sea of ​​blood surged at the same time, all the flesh and blood surging in the same direction. It even abandoned the Tower of Learning, preparing to first crush the insect that had invaded its territory.

Large amounts of dark red flesh and blood gushed out from the ground and building ruins, swarming toward the tunnel that Rek had carved out. Their numbers and speed were several times greater than before, and they had a clear purpose: to devour the swarm of insects.

Rex's passage narrowed rapidly under the onslaught of flesh and blood. The black swarm of insects and dark red flesh and blood tore wildly on both sides of the passage, and the insects were devoured, crushed, and melted into the blood mist in large numbers.

But this alone is not enough to stop Rex, because the number of swarming insects he controls is enough to fill the entire inner city.

The swarm of insects seemed to have received some kind of command; instead of falling haphazardly, they crashed down towards the crown itself.

The insects swelled and crowded together in mid-air, and when they fell to a certain point, they exploded with a bang, and more tiny insects burst out of their bodies and pounced on the surrounding flesh and blood.

However, the difference between the Forbidden and the Fifth Order is not just about power, but about authority.
