In this space, there was a stench permeating the air.
All around, broken insect eggs were scattered about, emitting that foul odor.
A black figure slowly emerged, revealing his true appearance in this dim space.
It was a gaunt middle-aged man clothed in black robes, with strange, undeveloped antennae on his head, making him look markedly different from a human.
The middle-aged man ignored the stench, pulled out an insect egg from his bosom. The egg contained a powerful energy.
He could even see through the egg a tiny, bizarre insect beast, emitting a sharp screech.
"Golden Core?"
"Heh!"
The middle-aged man let out a cold laugh, took the insect from the egg, and discarded the broken shell.
He swallowed the insect in one gulp.
Instantly, his face contorted in extreme pain, as if he were enduring immense agony. Something seemed to be writhing within him, causing his flesh to ripple like waves.
"Ah!!!"
