Chapter 5 005 [Yambu]

Half an hour later.

Chen Sheng, who deliberately took a detour through secluded roads, came to an old mining area that had been mined out.

This place has been abandoned for many years. Not only is it far away from the current main mining area, but the tunnels supporting the wooden pillars are also crisscrossed like a maze. The miners who need to run around for food all day rarely come here.

Chen Sheng had previously discovered an oval natural cave here, about three meters long and two meters high, and used the cave as a backup residence.

At this time, he sat cross-legged in the quiet and deep cave, took out the mangy dog's ring, put it close to his eyes and observed it carefully for a long time.

"After waiting for so many years, there are finally some unusual changes."

Whispering softly, he opened his career panel.

At this moment, a new line of text suddenly appeared below the profession named [Yambu Chongzhi] on the panel.

[Profession 1]: Yambu Insect
Level: Lv1 (1/100)

Talent: Concealment

Advancement requirement: Devour a space-attribute ingredient of sufficient quality. (Note: Insects need to eat to grow.)
The profession of Yamabu Chongzhi appeared on the panel from the beginning after Chen Sheng solved the mystery in the womb and awakened the golden finger five years ago.

Because the word "Yambu" makes people think of many things, he guessed that the professional ability of the Yambu insects should be related to time travel.

At that time, Chen Sheng thought he had obtained a profession that could travel through the world, and he had fantasized about using its ability to return to his original world. Unfortunately, after trying various methods, he was unable to get it to include even a single skill.

But after so many years, this talent of concealing the secrets of heaven has been silently protecting him, the person who sneaked into this world, and preventing him from revealing his identity as an extraterritorial demon.

I never expected that today I would have the opportunity for career advancement by chance.

"Squeaky-"

The cheerful squeaking of a mouse interrupted Chen Sheng's thoughts.

When he looked up, he saw a black rat rushing out from the darkness, running to his feet, standing up, and jumping around, trying to get close to him.

Chen Sheng didn't dare let it touch him.

This clever rat, inspired by the miner's [shepherd rat] talent, has been hanging out with rats for a long time. It might be carrying some deadly germs. It would be troublesome if it were infected.

[Rat Herder]: This talent makes one naturally close to rats. One can actively communicate with fixed groups of rats. If one persists for a long time, there is a chance that the rats will become intelligent and transform into spirit rats.

The probability of this transformation is actually not high.

During the five years at the Black Mountain Gold Mine, Chen Sheng nagged all the rats near his residence, but only this one clever rat was born, which had awakened its intelligence and could understand human speech.

But one is enough.

Although this clever rat was so weak that it could even kill a child with one kick, it had the ability to control the rat group, which gave Chen Sheng a sufficient sense of security in the gold mine.

He took out the steamed bun he had picked up from his arms, broke it into small pieces and fed it to the spirit rat.

"I'm going to eat something soon, and then something might happen.

If someone breaks into the cave during this time, can you guarantee my safety?"

The rat nodded: "Squeak~Squeak~"

"Very good, you are a good boy."

In the heart of the mouse that was inspired by professional talent, the status of the mouse herder was extremely high. Chen Sheng's praise made it overjoyed. The next moment, it ran out happily and began to arrange a group of mice for defense around it.

After arranging everything, Chen Sheng took off the gem from the ring with his fingers, washed it in the water tank in the cave, then lay on the tattered bed and swallowed it in one gulp.

The gem had just passed through his throat when it disappeared inexplicably.

The solid form melted away in an instant, and the existence confined within the gem was quietly released. Then came a feeling of fullness that filled his body and mind, making him feel stagnation from the inside out.

The feeling of fullness made Chen Sheng curl up like a fetus, his consciousness falling into a deep, peaceful slumber. During his sleep, a translucent secretion emanated from his skin, gradually accumulating, covering him, and solidifying, until he was enveloped in a large, smooth, oval egg.

There is no sun or moon in the mine, and time passes slowly without anyone noticing.

I don’t know how much time passed.

Pfft!

A white hand suddenly broke out of the egg, followed by another one.

As he stretched his hands to the sides, Chen Sheng's body emerged from the jelly-like gelatinous egg.

After his upper body was freed from the restraints, he first looked down at his body which seemed to be the same as before, then looked at the rubber eggs which still wrapped around his lower body, and couldn't help but show joy on his face.

At this time, on Chen Sheng's career panel, the level of [Yambu Chongzhi] has been promoted to Lv2, and a talent called "Reincarnation of Himself" has been added.

[Reincarnation of Others]: The innate magical power awakened by the Jambu insect after it metamorphosed into the larvae stage can separate its will and descend into another world, replacing the consciousness of its own counterpart in another world, absorbing the power systems of different worlds to supply the growth of the original body.

"Yambu is located in the southern Jambuvipa, and is the precious tree that gave birth to the world. According to legend, each fruit on this tree is an independent and vast world.

Among the heavens of Jambu, except for a few naturally born different species, all sentient beings can be classified into the five categories of insects: shrimps, scales, hairy insects, feathers, and insects, and humans are one of them.

And insects that possess the ability to freely shuttle between the Jambu Fruits, regardless of their species, are all—Jambu Insects.”

"Can it be reincarnated into another world and replace the consciousness of its counterpart in another world?
Now that I am trapped in a cage, unable to escape, this talent that gives me the opportunity to access the power systems of other worlds is indeed the ability I need most right now."

Don’t be fooled by the fact that Chen Sheng killed the members of the Dog Head Gang as easily as butchering dogs, looking like a real master.

In fact, there are hidden worries about his future.

That is, according to his current training speed, in half a year at most, the two martial arts he has mastered will be cultivated to the highest level, and there will be no further progress after that.

By then, staying in the gold mine will just be a waste of time.

Therefore, he had already made up his mind that if he could not acquire higher-level martial arts within six months, he would escape from prison by force after six months.

Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected turning point today.

Chen Sheng was eager to try it out and wanted to experience the effect of reincarnation immediately.

But considering that his original body would fall into a coma when he was reincarnated and he needed to store enough food in advance, he crawled out of the insect egg.

As soon as his feet touched the ground, he discovered that the originally empty cave was now filled with cloth bags and clay pots.

Has anyone been into the cave?

Did you leave something behind with you?
Chen Sheng's heart skipped a beat and he jumped out of the cave. However, after taking two steps, he saw the smart rat leading a group of rats guarding outside the cave in an orderly manner.

He stopped, summoned the spirit rat to his side, and asked what happened. After listening to it squeaking for a while, he frowned and said.

"You mean, I've been asleep for three days, and all these things appeared out of thin air while I was asleep?"

Chen Sheng moved his feet, opened the bag and jar and took a look. He found that the cloth bag was filled with rice and flour, and the earthenware jar was filled with oil and water.

He stood there thinking for a moment, and a guess emerged in his mind.

These foods should be what Mangy Dog stored in his space ring. As he digested the space-attribute gem, they fell from the void into the real world.

"Whatever I want comes to me. My luck is really too good."

Chen Sheng walked around the cave and found that this batch of food was enough for him to eat for half a year, and he immediately felt relieved.

"Now that we have enough food and drink, let's try out the effects of my reincarnation..."
