Chapter 954: Chapter 954

The Chaos stones that Jia Yan initially clutched within his feet had long disappeared into his foot, transforming into strands of energy that carried a unique stimulating sensation, which flowed back into Big Mosquito’s body through the Condensation Fluid.

"So exhilarating!" Jia Yan almost couldn’t help but shout out loud at this moment, for this delightful sensation might be the most comfortable mutation he had experienced so many times!

Though the energy of the Chaos stones appeared to possess terrifying radiation, once absorbed into the body, it felt surprisingly tame. It was a stimulating shift in life, accompanied by a thrilling comfort felt deeply by the physiological organs.

The wounds Jia Yan had just received on his foot began to heal slowly at this moment, as the Condensation Fluid started its work there, gently undulating, enveloping Jia Yan from head to toe.

"No, I cannot afford to lose consciousness directly! This is the enemies’ den, and if I lose consciousness, who knows if I’ll ever wake up again!"

Jia Yan remembered that during his last transformations, he retained consciousness to some extent. That is why, even though he was mutating again, he continued to urge himself not to lose consciousness!

The pain within his body gradually intensified...

Jia Yan did not know how much time had passed; he only knew that here, he was about to face a most crucial moment for the future!

As long as he got through this, his strength would then soar, at least to the level of the Strong Ones, as every mutation had never disappointed him. Given the intensity of the mutations, and with his current access to True Energy, along with the Bluish Defense, his strength might surpass even some of the Strong Ones!

Of course, these were all speculative thoughts before the mutation completed, and Jia Yan had no idea where the Chaos stone would take his mutation this time. Every form of mutative material offered differing directions of mutations, and if this one didn’t significantly enhance his combative abilities, the following battles would be challenging.

Jia Yan’s consciousness was about to vanish.

Deep underground, where there was no light, no oxygen, and no life, this place seemed like a barren land. For Big Mosquito, everything in the dark engulfed him in waves of loneliness.

But loneliness was not unfamiliar to him; on the contrary, he was all too accustomed to it!

After his rebirth, night after night, fight after fight, he had always been alone. Even his family, due to their different species, no longer shared a sense of affiliation. Jia Yan could even feel his familial affections slowly fading.

This was a terrifying realization for Jia Yan—something that gave his life meaning was being eroded by himself.

Now, these feelings of loneliness made his longing for family intensify.

"How should I dispel this loneliness? Ah, despite how powerful I have become, my worries are not different from those of Humans. In fact, I am even worse off—they at least have friends, but what about me?..."

Pain continuously besieged Jia Yan’s body, but it was rather the unexplained loneliness that occupied more of his attention.

Suddenly, an unimaginably intense pain struck him!

"Uh! Hold on!" This burst of agony jolted him out from his self-pity. At this moment, for Big Mosquito, the only goal was to survive. The answers to all his troubles could only be found if he survived!

The waves of pain prevented him from thinking about anything else.

The excruciating pain began to dominate nearly all his thoughts, making it impossible for him to consider loneliness again, as surge upon surge of immense pain obliterated all such emotions.

"Uhhhh ahhh!!!" His Heart and Mind were in excruciating pain, and his body thrashed about in the mud.

This immense creature was spinning at a region about a hundred kilometers beneath the surface, causing the earth below to undulate like a landsliding mountain.

Booming resonances from underground tremors even caused earthquakes on the surface. But due to the distance, the fluctuations were faint, and almost every person above was too preoccupied to notice these changes!

Yes, all living beings on the surface at this moment could no longer pay attention to the subtle tremors of the ground. They were plunged into immense panic.

At this moment, the beings on the surface, whether the Strong Ones in the major collection points or those who came to collect, now knew that a Strong One who had won a slot in the gathering had caused trouble within a collection point, even fleeing!

"What?! Are you saying the troublemaker is Jia Yan? Our former external aide from Angel Camp? That’s impossible!"

"Right, how could it be Jia Yan, forget whether he had any motive, just the fact of his strength, escaping from under the hands of your Strong soldiers, is a big issue, and causing trouble? It simply can’t be him!"

At the collection point outside Angel Camp, a horde of Angel Camp’s entities were surrounded by soldiers and Strong Ones who had rushed to the scene.
