Chapter 416 What a guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes!

The wound appeared large and was bleeding profusely, but the Saber-toothed Tiger King was, after all, a high-level pet beast, and its regenerative abilities were extremely strong.

The scab quickly formed and fell off, and granulation tissue appeared on the wound, which healed very quickly.

Before long, the saber-toothed tiger king's damaged flesh and blood had been completely restored.

This batch of black fleas died, but the next wave is coming.

Countless black fleas, like ants in a boiling pot, swarmed out from the cavity, surrounding it like a tide, their faces filled with terror.

It seems that the giant rock butterfly king's attack just now frightened the black fleas.

The saber-toothed tiger king's massive teeth, which could be encircled by ten men, were completely hollowed out, leaving only a shell.

It looked pitch black and a bit scary.

The surrounding teeth were also affected, developing pits of varying sizes.

If left unchecked, these pits will inevitably develop into deep, unfathomable cavities, eventually forming collapsed holes.

Red Yang Qi appeared on Ye Bai's body, and he raised the Sun Blade and gently swung it.

A flash of fiery red Yang energy passed by.

A dazzling light instantly illuminated the entire dark mouth.

The black fleas covered their eyes and let out sharp hissing sounds.

At the same time, there is a feeling of being burned by the scorching sun.

In just a moment, these black fleas stopped moving.

Their bodies were torn to pieces, turning into bursts of strong acid that scattered outwards.

He originally intended to keep some young black fleas for research, as these parasites evolve at a truly terrifying rate.

Larger pets have an ever-growing number of parasites inside their bodies, and their strength is also extremely high.

However, when Ye Bai saw the jet-black, translucent eggs of the black flea insects, he instantly changed his mind.

There should be enough black flea eggs for experiments.

Who knows, they might even be able to breed an even more terrifying black flea.

"Ever-Changing Butterfly, put away the insect eggs. These eggs are excellent materials for experiments."

These worm eggs are attached to the teeth one by one, each about the size of an adult man's palm.

With a mere flap of its wings, the Myriad Transformations Butterfly absorbed hundreds upon hundreds of insect eggs into Ye Bai's pet space, sealing them away.

"Let's see the results of the culture in the lab later."

"If cultivated properly, parasites can also be a subject of research."

Parasites are used to raise Gu worms; who knows what kind of Gu worms they will become.

In fact, often, changing your perspective can lead to unusual solutions.

After taking care of these little cuties, it's time to extract this decayed tooth.

This decayed tooth, like a malignant tumor, had caused the saber-toothed tiger's wound to become even more ulcerated due to its putrid and rotten parts.

The gums below were also swollen.

Well, this must be a huge project.

Ye Bai was quite troubled, wondering what method he could use to completely remove the tooth.

If only I had oxen or horses to help me.

Ye Bai was thinking about which of his pet beasts would be suitable for this job.

The ever-changing butterfly on the side stuck out its tongue somewhat reluctantly.

The environment here is too harsh; the ever-changing butterfly doesn't really want to stay here.

Just then, a cool breeze blew from behind.

With a clang, a black parasite that looked somewhat like a praying mantis appeared behind Ye Bai.

However, the Myriad Transformation Butterfly transformed into the Golden Light Butterfly at this moment, blocking the parasite's attack.

The black mantis arm broke off and stuck upside down in the ground, black liquid dripping from the wound.

"There are actually Dark Mantises here."

Ye Bai revealed a look of surprise.

In fact, the dark mantis is not a pest; rather, it is a beneficial insect that feeds exclusively on carrion.

This dark mantis was probably kept inside the body of a saber-toothed tiger king to eliminate pests.

However, it is unknown what caused the black fleas to multiply on such a large scale.

Logically, the Dark Mantis should feed on black fleas, so why does it allow them to grow unchecked?

[Evolutionary Path: The Dark Night Blood Mantis absorbs the blood of powerful beasts to evolve into an even more powerful being.]

"The Dark Mantis."

"Sunflower Fairy, can you enslave the Dark Mantis?"

Ye Bai thought the Dark Mantis was quite useful, and he wanted to have the Sunflower Fairy enslave the Dark Mantis, and then have the Dark Mantis perform surgery on the Saber-toothed Tiger King.

With this ox and horse, Ye Bai suffered less.

However, one Dark Mantis isn't enough, since the Saber-toothed Tiger King's injury area is too large.

At this moment, the Dark Mantises began to emerge one after another.

The Sunflower Fairy flew past them, and a white light fell on the Dark Mantis's forehead, whereupon a rune appeared.

The Dark Mantis bowed respectfully to the Sunflower Fairy.

Sunflower Fairy looked at Dark Mantis with an air of arrogance.

"Sunflower Fairy, make the Dark Mantis obey my commands."

The Sunflower Fairy waved her hand, and the Dark Mantises immediately lined up in a queue.

"Dark Mantis, burst the Saber-toothed Tiger King's blood bubble."

The Dark Mantises raised their sharp scythes in unison and slashed fiercely at the wound of the Saber-toothed Tiger King.

In just a moment, the Dark Mantises were flung away, their bodies crashing into the fleshy wall, unable to move for a long time.

It seems the Dark Mantis is willing but unable; its prized sharp mantis arms are simply no match for the attack.

"Northern Star Wolf Blade".

Ye Bai immediately understood why the black fleas were so rampant.

The Dark Mantises need to cultivate Black Fleas to break through these blood bubbles; they can only successfully evolve by absorbing the blood of high-level alien beasts.

That's why they let the black fleas grow, and they don't care if the tooth rots and smells bad.

It seems that the urge to evolve has become their instinct.

Two long blades, one red and one blue, easily pierced the blood blister, and dark red blood gushed out like a spring.

The foul-smelling blood flowed all over the ground.

The dark mantises raised their heads like hyenas, eagerly approaching the blood and devouring the saber-toothed tiger king's blood.

Their bellies swelled up at a visible speed, turning a bright red.

The crimson blood mist seeped directly into their bodies, causing them to transform at an even faster pace.

Spiderweb-like cracks appeared on the shell, and after a few crackling sounds, a large number of broken shells fell to the floor, clattering and clattering all over the place.

The Dark Mantises evolved; their bodies instantly shrank, making them look more refined. Ye Bai was slightly speechless. Evolved already?

However, he soon realized that these Dark Mantises were very likely on the verge of evolution, just one step away from it.

That's probably why the Dark Mantis is so eager to pop the blood bubble and drink its fill of blood.

As the Dark Mantises molted, these guys started doing some shady things.

Blood-red mantis eggs bobbed up and down in the blood.

The Dark Mantis is raising its offspring using the blood of the Saber-toothed Tiger King.

Ostensibly, it was to cure the saber-toothed tiger king's illness, but in reality, it was for their own reproduction!
What a guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes!

"Okay, time to work."

"Let's get this cavity out first."

"Northern Star Wolf Blade".

With a snap, the decayed tooth shattered into pieces under the attack of the Northern Star Wolf Blade.

Numerous tooth fragments were scattered all over the ground, some even deeply embedded in the flesh, making Ye Bai feel a chill run down his spine.

Good heavens! If I were to do something like that with my own mouth, I would definitely be spinning 720 degrees and ascending to heaven on the spot.

This is absolutely terrifying.

Just thinking about it sends chills down my spine. Luckily, it was only the saber-toothed tiger that was injured.

Blood gushed from the ruptured wound, and the Dark Mantis unleashed a blood feast.

The swollen area healed at a visible speed as blood splattered.

At that moment, a white tooth grew out from the damaged area.

Not long after, the cavity was filled.

Wang Hu and Song Fu'an saw that the saber-toothed tiger king's previously swollen face had subsided, and they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Ye Bai truly did not disappoint in the field of pet healing.

"It seems that the Saber-toothed Tiger King should be able to recover its health soon."

Wang Hu said with emotion.

"Yes, the saber-toothed tiger king has a very strong attack power. With it as a security guard, I feel much more at ease."

"And this guy is the leader of the beasts."

Song Fu'an said with a smile.

Not long after, Ye Bai led a large number of Dark Night Blood Mantises out of the Saber-toothed Tiger King's mouth.

When Wang Hu saw the Dark Night Blood Mantis, he was immediately stunned.

Good heavens, where did these things come from? How come there are so many of them?

"Stop looking. These are all parasites living inside the saber-toothed tiger king. They're just beneficial insects, I suppose."

"It can gnaw on the wounds inside the saber-toothed tiger king's body, and the two have a symbiotic relationship."

"The Saber-toothed Tiger King's injuries have almost healed; it just needs a few more days of rest."

"You guys go back."

Ye Bai felt that the Dark Night Blood Mantis had limited potential, so he still planned to take it back to the research institute for further study.

This should be considered a completely new track.

"Lin Lin, help me find out who in Yan Kingdom is skilled at raising Gu poison."

Lin Lin emerged quietly from Ye Bai's shadow. It could move freely among any shadow, a unique talent of the paper doll race.

"Yes, Lan Fenghuang of the Five Poisons Sect."

"She is Zhang Yuelu, one of the Twenty-Eight Mansions."

"Blue Phoenix is very skilled at cultivating Gu worms. If you have any questions, I can arrange a meeting with her."

Ye Bai nodded: "Help me arrange a meeting with Lan Fenghuang."

"The best time would be in the next few days."

"Once the Young Lin Cup starts, I'll be extremely busy."

Lin Lin floated in the air and nodded.

"Understood, I'll contact them for you right away, don't worry."

A barefoot girl, adorned with silver ornaments from head to toe and with two red snake chains dangling from her ears, is on a mission.

Just then, the red-chained snake beside her spoke.

"Blue Phoenix, one of the Twenty-Eight Constellations is looking for you."

"I wonder if you'd be interested in talking to him."

"He said he had important intelligence about Gu worms."

"If you're not interested, I'll just refuse."

Lan Fenghuang listened and smiled with interest.

"Let him come directly to me."

"I just happen to have a short break now."

“If I’m interested, I will naturally go and find him.”

The red-chained snake briefly acted as a mouthpiece: "Here's the thing, Blue Phoenix, I have a batch of extremely special parasites that I found inside other high-level pets. I don't know if you'd be interested."

"If you are interested, I can send you a batch of insect eggs for research."

"I think if the two of us work together, we should be able to develop new types of Gu worms."

Upon hearing the message from the Red-Chained Serpent, Blue Phoenix's playful eyes darted around.

"no problem."

"Parasites, that's definitely a very new field."

"Our Five Poisons Sect has indeed not put any effort into pet parasites."

“We can definitely work together.”

"I need two more days to finish my current work."

Blue Phoenix watched as the ferocious Titan Serpents crawled out of the ground, and a happy smile appeared on her face.

"My little darling, come quickly into your big sister's arms."

"Plant my Gu worms and become a puppet under my control."

On Ye Bai's side, Lin Lin quickly reported back to him about Lan Fenghuang's reply.
