Cultivation Bug Fuyo

A mysterious group arrives

Fuyo grew bored with the war. It was taking too long; he had been stuck in here for 3 days. He decided to fly around and explore the village. He flew through the air and visited various houses and shops along the streets.

He was like a ghost, he could fly through the walls and no one could see him. There were many villagers scattered around, hiding in fear and hoping for the best.

Of course, none of this was real that's why he could go where ever he wanted.

He saw a group of people standing guard by a window, they were acting very shady. They would look out the window from time to time and make sure no one was approaching the house. It was a seemingly normal house; a small one story shack with one window and a white picket fence. "Why would there be guards, guarding a place like this?"

He flew through the walls and looked around the place. It was just a normal shack; the two guards stood by the window. Another three were standing around and doing nothing. There was a little kitchen with an open fire stove and chimney. A little long drop toilet and that was it, there was nothing else.

"Well this can't be right."

Fuyo flew around but couldn't find anything; they didn't seem to be protecting any rare item or treasure.

Out the corner of his eye he noticed that the carpet had a little crease, like it had been folded over more than once. He inspected the carpet and guessed there must be something hidden underneath it. He flew through the floor and found himself in a small basement.

In front of him appeared a massive, metal door built into the hard stone wall.

"A vault? What's behind it?"

He flew straight into the vault door, it was big and mighty but it didn't impede Fuyo's way at all. The vault was dug deep into the earth; in fact it wasn't a vault at all, it was just a highly secure door. Behind the door was a large tunnel and at the end of the tunnel was a giant underground city.

There were thousands of bees here. Their feet were tied down in chains and some got whipped by the guards for working too slow. Fuyo looked around and saw giant Gorilla Bees, Bull Bees and even Mole Bees!

The Mole Bees were forced to dig massive tunnels deep into the earth, the Bull Bees were pulling big stones out from these tunnels and the Gorilla Bees smashed these big rocks into pieces. The Spirit Bees then sifted through the pieces and pulled out various crystal stones.

Fuyo flew around but he didn't know what they were mining. He had never seen any these items before.

Most of the extracted rocks were white, yellow and tiger-eye. But among them, there were also morganite and even a few blue sea colored crystals.

"What's so special about these stones that they would utilize a massive slave army like this? They even built a giant city."

He flew up and moved straight through the earth and appeared outside the village. He traveled very far inside the underground city and found himself quite a distance away.

Close to the ground not too far from him was an extremely powerful group of people.

"Who are these guys? Hold on, they look just like humans!" He was shocked that there were humans here.

This group were neither bee nor human but donned a human like body with a large set of wings attached to their backs. Seeing them would stun anyone. Despite them having wings they were not flying but standing on thin air. They were just like Immortals!

The group was made of old people, all of their eyes seemed to contain secrets of the universe. There were two elders with extremely muscular bodies and also an elder that wasn't quite as old as them. He stood out a lot because he was obviously a lot weaker and younger than the people surrounding him. It looked like he was arguing with someone but Fuyo couldn't quite see who.

He flew closer and in front of this young elder was a caterpillar.

"Caterpillar? Are they from the Caterbee clan?" Fuyo couldn't help but ask himself this question. But there wings were not butterfly like at all, they seemed closer to devils.

The strongest among them was Grand Meister Lao and he stood at the helm of the group. He wore a white sage's robe and had a long white beard; he seemed just like a wise old Kung Fu Master. Behind him were a set of giant white leather wings. They looked menacing, almost demonic.

Fuyo admired their features; they were completely human except their giant wings. It was so strange but he didn't question the weirdness of this world anymore.

Behind the caterpillar space started to distort. The young and weak elder suddenly coughed blood and passed out on the ground.

Fuyo couldn't make heads or tails of the situation. "What's going on?" He was incredibly confused. Did he just have a heart attack and die?

The space distortions rippled and twirled, then a bunch of hourglasses formed in mid air and floated there. They had purple sand flowing through them and in the middle was a little black tunnel that seemed endless.

It felt like a portal to another world.

"Where did all these come from?" Fuyo had never seen anything like it.

"Is this hourglass magic? What's the point in that? How useless!" Fuyo couldn't help but curse. Magic was such a gift yet they wasted it's potential by using it to keep time. One hourglass wouldn't bother Fuyo but there were hundreds.

"Is this guy obsessed with time or something?"

The hourglasses all had sand and each grain fell at exactly the same time like they were in sync.

"Looks like it'll take 3 days for all the sand to fall through."

Maybe it's a countdown until he breaks free from this dream? He couldn't help but have hope but he doubted his own thoughts because it didn't make sense for an hourglass to appear and tell him when he was going to wake up.

He couldn't touch anything or interact with anything. He felt like a spectator trapped in a world that wasn't his own. It was frustrating.

A wind started to blow from the little black tunnel. A morganite crystal like the ones Fuyo saw in the underground mines started flying out. There were so many hourglasses and each of them had stones pouring out from them. They formed a big mountain of stones shocking Fuyo and even the elders that were there.

"This...This is teleportation magic? Now that's more like it!" He had a massive smile on his face, teleportation was actually something incredibly useful. Can you imagine a massive army teleporting right into the enemies territory without them knowing?

But then he looked at the little black tunnel and couldn't imagine himself fitting through that little gap.

After the hourglasses finished spurting out massive amounts of morganite stones crystals they vanished.

In the end there was only one hourglass left and on that hourglass it had a name.

"Hong Long"
