All-class Gu Immortal

Chapter 64 The Record of Strange Insects and the Blood Refining Gu Technique (Please continue reading!)

"Glug~! Glug~!"

As soon as Zhou Qing returned to the edge of the pool, large bubbles began to rise from the once calm surface.

The next moment, a dark figure was flung out of the water by Erqing's silk thread.

Its graceful trajectory is like that of a highly skilled fisherman.

thump!
A stiff corpse was thrown ashore.

Zhou Qing went forward to examine the body.

Several months have passed since my last visit.

However, the temperature underwater was very low, so the body did not show any signs of decomposition.

He appeared to be a thin, middle-aged man, but his fatal wound was a stab wound to the back of his heart.

"So, it must have been Zhang Jian who ambushed him."

Zhou Qing pondered.

The clothes on the corpse's chest were bulging. He pulled them open and found a black animal skin bag inside, about the size of a normal thread-bound book.

He picked up the bag.

The bag was slippery, with no signs of sewing or opening.

"This"

Zhou Qing tried to pull it a few times, but found that she couldn't budge it at all.

Boom! Boom!
Erqing, who was underwater, kept throwing up bright yellow Gu stones.

In a short while, twelve Gu stones appeared on the shore.

After waiting a while, Erqing surfaced, returned to the shore, and used a silk thread to hoist up a black harpoon that resembled a trident.

"Puff puff." Erqing indicated that all the useful things below had been hoisted up.

"Awesome!" Zhou Qing gave a thumbs up.

If he lived by the Blackwater River, he could probably make a comfortable living just by relying on Erqing's fishing skills.

"Pfft!"

Erqing was very pleased with itself. Seeing that Zhou Qing was pulling on the animal skin bag, it flew forward as if it was observing something.

"What's wrong? Did you see something?!" Zhou Qing asked.

"puff!"

[There is the scent of Gu worms.]

"Are you referring to the inside, or the package itself?" Zhou Qing was taken aback. This time, he used all his strength to pull on the animal skin bag and felt a force contracting.

"We can't exactly say this bag is some kind of Gu worm, can we?" Zhou Qing was taken aback.

At this moment, the jade tablet in the soul also did not react.

"Puff~"

【possible.】

"Forget it! This is too much trouble!"

Zhou Qing placed the animal skin bag on the ground, drew his demon-slaying sword, and the long, dark blue blade gleamed with a cold light.

He raised the blade high and slashed at the edge of the animal skin bag.

puff!

The front half of the knife was embedded in the soft mud by the pool, while the animal skin bag remained unharmed.

"Huh?!" Zhou Qing noticed that the animal skin bag seemed to shrink slightly just before it was hit, which caused him to miss the target.

"This is."

Zhou Qing picked up the animal skin bag again, this time gripping it tightly, with the blade aimed at the center.

"Break!" Zhou Qing roared, raising his longsword high before bringing it down hard.

"Sizzle~"

As if hearing the sound of a zipper being pulled, Zhou Qing's long knife stopped less than an inch from the animal skin bag.

There was a hole at the top of the animal skin bag, like a zipper being pulled open.

Is it really alive?!
Zhou Qing spread a piece of burlap on the ground, turned the animal skin bag over, and poured out all the contents.

In a short while, a pile of miscellaneous items appeared.

"Good heavens!" Zhou Qing exclaimed in surprise. The animal hide bag, about the size of a book, looked completely empty, yet it could hold so much stuff?
Looking at the colorful bottles and jars in front of him, Zhou Qing arranged them neatly according to size.

Immediately afterwards, he picked up two palm-sized leather booklets.

The text above is crooked, ugly, and a bit hard to read.

Zhou Qing stared at it for a long time before he could recognize what was written on it.

Records of Strange Insects

Blood Refining Gu Technique

Zhou Qing's face lit up with joy, and he first opened the Record of Strange Insects.

"First-tier Gu worm".

The first line of the Record of Strange Insects contains four small characters.

Below are the names and images of the Gu worms.

Zhou Qing was stunned by the several strange and unusual Gu worms inside.

[Tier 1, Low-Grade Gu Insect: Leather Bag Gu, Support Type. Crafted from the stomach pouch of a giant black lizard and the core of a century-old willow tree. Can be used for storage. Between inanimate and living matter. Cannot molt or be combined with other materials.]

Soon, Zhou Qing discovered a description of a Gu worm that resembled the black animal skin bag in front of him.

"This thing is actually considered a Gu worm?!"

At this moment, a line of text also appeared on the jade tablet.

You have acquired a new Gu worm – the Leather Bag Gu (Unranked)

【Skin Bag Gu:.】

The above description is similar to that recorded in the Record of Strange Insects, but slightly more detailed.

Zhou Qing continued reading and soon found the Green Silk Gu.

[Tier 1 Low-Grade Gu Insect: Green Silk Gu, Support Type. A low-grade Gu worm born naturally, with low intelligence, growing entirely according to instinct. Its maximum racial rank is Tier 1 Low-Grade. A few higher-quality Green Silk Gu can metamorphose into juvenile wine worms or poisonous flower butterflies under extremely harsh conditions. It cannot metamorphose.]

"The Green Silk Gu is just a low-level Gu worm." Zhou Qing was stunned. Was he mentally deficient?

Isn't this pure nonsense?
"It seems that the powerful one is not the Green Silk Gu, but the 'Jade Tablet'!"

Zhou Qing originally only used the jade tablet in his soul as a proficiency panel.

It now appears that the Jade Tablet's true abilities extend far beyond what it currently possesses.

[Tier 1 Mid-Grade Gu Insect: Golden-Backed Centipede, Combat Type. Evolved from various large centipedes, the adult Golden-Backed Centipede possesses weak fire poison power; its venom has a strong corrosive effect. Consuming fire-attribute Gu insects and exotic beasts can transform it into a Tier 1 Supreme-Grade Gu Insect, the 'Melting Gold Centipede'. Consuming highly venomous Gu insects, exotic beasts, and evil entities can transform it into a Tier 2 Low-Grade Gu Insect, the 'Soul-Devouring Centipede'. Can be combined for refinement.]

"I never expected that Crimson Flame would be the Gu worm with the highest evolutionary potential among my subordinates?"

Zhou Qing continued flipping through the pages, and the last page was surprisingly about wine lovers.

[Tier 1 Top-Grade Gu Insect: Wine Insect, Support Type. Naturally formed innate wine worms are Tier 1 Top-Grade. Acquired wine worms cultivated from the Green Silk Gu are Tier 1 Mid-Grade. Cannot molt, can be combined for refinement.]

"Are there really innate and acquired types of alcohol addiction?" Zhou Qing was taken aback.

He put down the Record of Strange Insects.

This book records a total of ten types of Gu worms.

Although there were no detailed steps for refining the Gu, he was no longer completely clueless like before.

"Blood Refining Gu Technique!" Zhou Qing picked up another booklet.

"What a sinister witch cult!"

Zhou Qing turned to the first page, which began with a detailed description of the secret technique of using living people to assist in the refining of Gu poison.

The method was extremely cruel.

When he turned to the second page, a small, blood-stained piece of paper fell out of the book.

"This is."

Zhou Qing picked up the note and looked at it.

The writing on it was blurry and illegible, with some parts stained by blood.

Zhou Qing read out the words she could recognize by putting them together.

"Within the sect, under the protection of the Dharma, food, the Wooden King Cauldron, the Heavenly Fiend Demon Corpse, Black Wind Yellow Dragon Mountain."

I recommend this book: "Who Plays Go After Everyone's Reborn?"

If we're reborn in the 1980s, who's going to play Go?
You're saying the prize money for the competition is the amount due in 2024?

Saving the future of Chinese chess is our inescapable duty!
