At four in the morning, the Blue Moon was hanging high, casting a faint, weapon-like sheen over the sky. Despite the clear weather, everything still appeared hazy, as if shrouded in thin clouds.
At that moment, two sleeping centipedes, corrupted by their greed, suddenly opened their lantern-like eyes. Their eyes, initially red, had turned pale blue under the dim light of the Blue Moon.
Though Li Yao had been expecting this transformation, seeing it firsthand still left him feeling a chill down his spine.
Hiss hiss...
The two gigantic pairs of eyes turned towards Li Yao. Startled, he quickly averted his gaze and huddled against a stone wall, holding his breath.
These colossal worms, comparable to mountain pythons, withdrew their gaze.
Then, their eyes shot out four rays of light, which landed on the grey worm eggs. The originally grey eggs also started to radiate a faint blue glow.
