All-class Gu Immortal

Chapter 120 Propagating the Golden Silkworm Gu, The Making of a Demon (First Update)
Once the specially made incense has burned out, almost all the poisonous insects within a five-mile radius will be attracted to it.

The teeth-grinding gnawing sounds inside the wooden king's cauldron have long since ceased.

Zhou Qing poured his true energy into it and found that the originally turbid amber-colored medicinal liquid in the cauldron had been completely drained.

Of the hundreds or thousands of poisonous insects, very few have survived.

There was only a purple spider the size of a fist, two large black centipedes over a foot long, and four colorful geckos left.

There was also a blue venomous snake, but it was covered in wounds and was swarmed by spiders, centipedes, and geckos, who devoured it.

Although the remaining poisonous insects were also wounded, their ferocious aura was much stronger than before.

The remains of poisonous insects covered the entire bottom of the wooden cauldron.

The remaining poisonous insects had already stopped fighting, but as Zhou Qing injected his true energy into the body of the Wooden King Cauldron, a faint, exotic fragrance wafted from the cauldron, and a thin, pale green mist gradually appeared.

"hiss--!"

The remaining venomous insects became ferocious and fought each other again, until only the fist-sized purple spider remained.

The purple spider had a large hole bitten into half of its head, and four of its eight legs were missing.

However, after being replenished by the ethereal green mist within the Wooden King Cauldron, it began to devour the remaining poisonous insect corpses, and the aura emanating from its body became even stronger than before it was injured.

"That's really cruel."

Zhou Qing sighed softly.

With just a period of feeding, the purple spider can recover and become even stronger, eventually evolving into a Gu worm.

Unfortunately, ordinary Gu worms were no longer of any use to Zhou Qing.

"Buzz!"

With a flick of his sleeve, Zhou Qing released four thumb-sized golden silkworm worms, which then flew into the Wooden King Cauldron.

"hiss!!"

The purple spider became ferocious and hissed warnings, but to no avail.

Four golden silkworm worms fell simultaneously, their sharp mouthparts tearing at the purple spider.

In the blink of an eye, the victor that survived the battle among thousands of poisonous insects became food for the Golden Silkworm Gu worms.

Natural selection, survival of the fittest.

If Zhou Qing doesn't want to become someone else's meal one day, he must climb to the top step by step.

The golden silkworm worms, about the size of a thumb, had an inexplicable appetite. After devouring the purple spider, they then completely consumed the remaining remains of the poisonous insects, leaving not a single drop of their bodily fluids or venom.

"ended."

Today's cultivation ends here. Just as Zhou Qing was about to retrieve the Wooden King Cauldron, he suddenly noticed something was wrong.

"Kaka!!"

A sound came from inside the cauldron again.

He looked closely and saw that the four golden silkworm worms had started killing each other after eating the remains of the poisonous insects.

Even when Zhou Qing used his bloodline power to command the Golden Silkworm Gu worms, he couldn't stop the battle.

"what happened?"

Zhou Qing's expression changed slightly. He did not activate the Wooden King Cauldron to release the special aura that could excite the poisonous insects.

Through the connection of bloodline power, Zhou Qing received a response from the Golden Silkworm Gu worm—hunger!
"Since you're hungry, then you can eat your fill!"

Zhou Qing lifted the wooden cauldron and moved it to another area.

He ran for seven or eight miles in one breath, almost entering the territory of Yufeng Mountain, which is connected to Black Wind Mountain, before stopping.

"Kaka!"

The four golden silkworm worms were still fighting inside the wooden king cauldron.

Three of the golden silkworm worms devoured two copper-skinned worms, thus undergoing another evolution.

In the two-on-one battle, the remaining golden silkworm worm that had not yet shared the copper-skinned worm quickly fell into a disadvantageous position. Under the nibbling of the other golden silkworm worm, its hard shell was gradually bitten through, and green fluid flowed out.

Zhou Qing took out all the remaining specially made incense sticks and lit them.

rustle
rustle
A moment later, chilling sounds came from all directions.

"so much?!"

Zhou Qing's gaze sharpened as he watched the poisonous insects rushing from the direction of Yufeng Mountain.

This time, the number of poisonous insects was more than ten times that of the previous one.

"Um?!"

Suddenly, Zhou Qing felt a gust of cold wind beside him. Whoosh!
He dodged the attack with a swift movement.

clang! !

A tremendous roar resounded, and the Corpse Worm King was sent flying backward, crashing into the Wooden King Cauldron. It then unleashed its ferocity and shot out.

Zhou Qing stared intently and saw a strangely shaped poisonous insect locked in combat with the Corpse Worm Gu King.

At first glance, it looks like a round beetle the size of a human head, but it has a tail that is more than two feet long, with fine, centipede-like legs at both ends.

The Corpse Worm King was tightly entangled by the tail of the strange poisonous insect, its carapace being gnawed away with a crackling sound, sparks flying everywhere.

"The deep mountains are truly dangerous!" Zhou Qing's gaze sharpened as he looked at the strange poisonous insect that had managed to suppress the Corpse Worm Gu King in such a short time.

The Corpse Worm Gu King is a top-grade first-tier Gu worm. Although its methods are somewhat limited, it is enough to rival an ordinary Bone Refining Realm martial artist in a one-on-one fight. It is truly astonishing that it could be suppressed in terms of power.

Zhou Qing had no intention of going up to help, because through the bloodline connection, he sensed the anger and violence of the Corpse Worm Gu King.

Clearly, the Corpse Worm King didn't take it seriously at first.

Now it's angry.

puff!

The Corpse Worm King suddenly swelled up, turning into a giant beetle over two meters tall and over one meter wide. Its sharp pincers tightly embraced the strange poisonous insect, instantly killing it and cutting it into pieces.

"Don't waste them, collect the remains of the poisonous insects."

At this moment, Zhou Qing, who was standing to the side, gave the order.

"hiss--!!"

Under the cold moonlight, the Corpse Worm King exhaled a breath of cold air from its sharp mandibles, its bulging eyes staring at Zhou Qing, as if the killing just now had completely unleashed its ferocity.

"Now! Immediately! Right now!"

Meeting the gaze of the Corpse Worm King, Zhou Qing narrowed his eyes.

After a brief silence, the Corpse Worm King shrank rapidly, returning to the size of a washbasin, and collected the remains of the strange worms into the Wooden King Cauldron.

'Still can't tame it.' Zhou Qing's eyes shifted.

"Click click!!!"

At this moment, the commotion inside the Wooden King's Cauldron once again attracted Zhou Qing's attention.

The four golden silkworm worms were about to determine a winner, but now, facing the siege of tens of thousands of poisonous insects, they were struggling to cope.

Among them, the golden silkworm worm that was initially severely injured gradually succumbed to the siege of the poisonous insects.

In particular, some tiny venomous insects burrowed directly into the cracks in the broken shell of the Golden Silkworm Gu Worm and entered its body.

A moment later, the injured golden silkworm worm collapsed and was devoured by numerous other worms.

The creaking sound was as harsh as metal rubbing together.

"In that case, let's add fuel to the fire."

Seeing this, Zhou Qing took out a piece of the Hundred Poisons Peach and threw it into the cauldron.

This caused a complete upheaval within the Wooden King Cauldron.

The loud noise lasted for a full half hour.

In the end, only three golden silkworm worms survived.

"Um?!"

After the surviving golden silkworm worms devoured the poisonous insects and the hundred-poison peach, they actually began to lay eggs.

More and more golden silkworm eggs covered the bottom of the wooden king cauldron.

"This quantity!" Zhou Qing's eyes widened.

Judging by sight alone, there are more than five hundred golden silkworm gu eggs here.

Even though the hatched golden silkworm worms are far less powerful than these three, their numbers reach several hundred, and the combat power they can form is quite considerable.

Moreover, with the existence of the Wooden King Cauldron, the food source for these golden silkworm worms can be guaranteed, and their growth rate will definitely not be slow.

Zhou Qing's lips curled up.

Once hundreds of Golden Silkworm Gu are raised and released at once, even a Bone Refining Realm martial artist would have to retreat.

Even the most skilled martial artist cannot train their body's seven orifices to be impervious to swords and spears.

"It seems I'm destined to become a demon."
