The Insect Race ultimately has a source, which is the insect hive.
As long as the insect hive is destroyed, the hidden danger of the Insect Race could be eliminated without a fight. Of course, for the insect hive to plunge Xianyuan City into such a state, its scale must be absolutely enormous, perhaps even more than one; otherwise, it could not possibly breed members comparably strong as cultivators from the Divine Sea Realm.
Lu Ye had experienced the Insect Plague at the Spirit Stream battlefield, but those insects were all from the Spirit Stream Realm, and the defense inside their hives was not substantial.
There are also insect hives in the secret realm of the Ten Thousand Beasts Domain, but those can be dealt with by the combined efforts of Cloud River Realm cultivators.
The power of Xianyuan City is definitely not weak. The current city lord is only from the spirit ground, showing no overt power, but he is definitely among the strongest in the Divine Sea Realm.
