"Yes, Clan Leader!" The members of the Dwarf Demon Clan stopped what they were doing and respectfully responded.
Above, floating, Mu Rufeng silently watched this scene.
This Anrub was truly cruel to his own tribe, not hesitating to kill at a disagreement.
However, considering their large population, it was no surprise that Anrub was a Level 9 Ghost Emperor.
Afterwards, Mu Rufeng headed in a different direction.
He actually wanted to check the brain, or maybe the heart, or even the stomach to see if the Level 9 Ghost Emperor could detect him.
If he was discovered, he could just fight.
After all, he couldn’t die, and with the Virtualization Ability of the Illusion Heart Ghost King, it was possible that even the Level 9 Ghost Emperor wouldn’t be able to harm him.
Mu Rufeng was completely baffled.
He had no idea where he was; the Swallowing Sky Demon Whale was simply too vast.
Mu Rufeng had completely lost his sense of direction.
However, going back was not a problem, as Mu Rufeng had left a Rule Item locator on that camera item.
It would allow Mu Rufeng to precisely know the location there.
"Damn it, where exactly is this?" Mu Rufeng gazed at the white parasitic worms below, having no clue where he was.
But he knew that this must be the territory of the Insect Queen.
It was clear that those white parasites hatched from the eggs within the black liquid.
These white parasites looked quite different from Anrub’s people, but the one constant feature was the two antennae on their heads.
Another hour passed, and Mu Rufeng found the barnacle section.
The barnacle was oddly shaped, similar to those in the real world with the size of a basketball, with a large mouth below it.
It seemed the barnacle was the main body, surrounded by a multitude of tiny claws.
These parasites appeared to be gnawing at the Swallowing Sky Demon Whale’s flesh incessantly.
Fortunately, the flesh of the Swallowing Sky Demon Whale regrew quickly, otherwise it might have been completely consumed by these parasites.
"Ah, where exactly are the brain, heart, and stomach?" Mu Rufeng was somewhat speechless.
The inside of the Swallowing Sky Demon Whale was just too vast, lacking both direction and a map.
Even if Mu Rufeng caught some parasites and interrogated them, it wouldn’t have any use.
Because they also did not know where they were.
Mu Rufeng thought for a moment, since he couldn’t find it himself, he might as well leave.
As long as he got out, he could see the entire body of the Swallowing Sky Demon Whale and then he could identify the location of the brain, heart, and stomach.
After identifying, he could just point to a spot and rush straight there without turning, and he would surely reach where he wanted to go.
No sooner said than done, Mu Rufeng immediately flew upwards.
Mu Rufeng passed through the flesh of the Swallowing Sky Demon Whale, heading upwards.
On his way, Mu Rufeng saw a multitude of parasites.
All of them were feasting on the flesh of the Demon Whale.
But they would not gnaw on the same spot continuously; after eating for a while, they would immediately switch to another place.
The place that had been gnawed on before would begin to regrow flesh at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Even so, the recovery rate of the flesh couldn’t keep up with the consumption rate of the parasites.
Obviously, this was already the result of higher-ranking parasites imposing restrictions; otherwise, if left unchecked, the Demon Whale might have ended up riddled with holes.
The Swallowing Sky Demon Whale was not a normal creature; presumably, even if its flesh was completely eaten away, leaving just a skeleton, the Swallowing Sky Demon Whale would still not die.
Mu Rufeng wasn’t flying fast; it was about the speed of an average person running.
Another hour passed, and Mu Rufeng came upon a layer of black membrane.
This membrane completely blocked Mu Rufeng’s form.
Even with his virtualized body, he couldn’t pass through.
Then, Mu Rufeng found a gap and deactivated his Virtualization Ability.
"Is this the skin of the Swallowing Sky Demon Whale?"
Mu Rufeng murmured to himself, then put on his clothes and reached out to touch the membrane.
This membrane was very hard, extremely tough.
Mu Rufeng immediately deployed Sharpness, turned his palm into a claw shape, and fiercely scratched at the membrane.
A grating noise sounded, but not even a white mark was left on the membrane.
Mu Rufeng looked at his attributes.
[Constitution]: 15915
All three attributes were well over fifteen thousand.
But even so, he still could not break through.
Mu Rufeng then took out a Level 9 Brocade Spring Saber.
With Sharpness attached, he performed the Pig Killing Eighteen Techniques and even deployed the Rule Skill, Cut in Half.
Incredibly, he still couldn’t break through, only leaving extremely fine white marks, finer than sweat hairs.
At this rate, Mu Rufeng feared he could hack away for three days and three nights and probably still not penetrate this membrane.
After all, nobody knew how thick this membrane was.
Mu Rufeng fell into contemplation, what should he do?
Suddenly, Mu Rufeng thought of the Rule Item, the clown’s chainsaw.
He had just taken it out, but then he remembered that this membrane was the skin of the Swallowing Sky Demon Whale. Although the clown’s chainsaw could saw through anything, it excluded living creatures.
The Swallowing Sky Demon Whale was also included in this "living creatures" category.
Mu Rufeng put away the clown’s chainsaw and started rummaging through his Item Slot.
He searched for a long time but couldn’t find any useful item that could break through this layer of membrane.
