Chapter Fifty-Eight: Evolution of Ghost Worms

The female ghost worm was no more than an inch long, and the male was less than a tenth of his length, which was about the same as a large lice. To say that he can swallow more than a hundred ghost pawns, Ma Yilong is really a little hard to believe.

Seeing Ma Yilong's surprised look on his face, Huo Wuyuan smiled bitterly and said: "The most important step in the evolution of this Yin Yang Ghost Worm is to devour ghosts! When I gave you a ghost pawn, I deliberately left a hundred in order to feed this ghost worm! As for not wanting you to see it, it was also because that scene was a bit cruel!"

When Qingyun Dao heard this, he walked to Ma Yilong's side, shook his head and told the scene he had just seen.

Huo Wuyuan released a hundred ghost pawns at the same time, using spells to firmly fix their bodies on the ground, but did not restrict the ghost pawns from making sounds, and then released the ghost worms, allowing it to choose the target to attack and devour.

Ghost insects do have the ability to devour ghosts, but they still have the initial stage of evolution in front of them, and they can only devour one ghost pawn at a time. Speaking of which, this ghost insect is also full of spirituality, and it likes to devour ghosts, but when it devours ghosts, it does not swallow them randomly, but selectively.

At the beginning, the ghost insect first aimed at a ghost pawn and spewed out a slender black gas. After the ghost pawn was sprayed by this black qi, it was as if it had been corroded, and its body quickly melted, and finally disappeared completely, turning into a stream of yin qi that was swept into the belly of the ghost insect by the black qi.

As his body melted, the ghost soldier showed an extremely painful expression and let out a miserable wail. This wail quickly infected the other ghosts, and for a moment they were all in extreme fear. And that was exactly what the ghost worm wanted, and then it began to scan the ghosts, and quickly found one of the most feared ghosts as its next target.

The reason why the ghost worm chose this way is to devour the ghost pawn of fear, which can make him improve even more, and the greater the fear of the ghost pawn, the more spiritual energy it will bring. However, the ghost worm's choice will also make the ghost pawns who can't avoid it more and more panicked.

The whole devouring process was tragic and abnormal, and the sound of wailing in the cave continued to come out. Later, even the Qingyun Dao people couldn't bear to look at it, closed their eyes, and sealed their ears with mana. And the reason why Ma Yilong, who was standing outside the cave, didn't feel anything was because Huo Wuyuan had set a ban in the cave in advance.

After listening to this, Ma Yilong finally understood Huo Wuyuan's good intentions, and he was also grateful in his heart. Ma Yilong smiled at Huo Wuyuan and bowed down, and began to look at the ghost insect after eating!

At this time, the length of this ghost insect was still the same as before, and it had not changed much. However, the figure of the ghost worm, looming in his eyes, is no longer so clear. Ma Yilong nodded with satisfaction, observing with his super divine thoughts, it would definitely be difficult for those who had poor divine thoughts to find out.

Huo Wuyuan smiled bitterly: "At this time, he has just swallowed these ghosts, and he has not yet finished evolving, and after a while, you will find that it must be completely different from now! However, when it is completely invisible, it will be difficult for you to discover its existence yourself." Therefore, you can't just rely on the female ghost worm to control him, according to my suggestion, from now on, you have to feed it with your own essence and blood for half a month!

When Ma Yilong heard this, he was surprised again.

Huo Wuyuan looked at Ma Yilong and said with a wry smile: "You don't have to be surprised, the method introduced in the book in your hand can't cultivate high-level ghost insects at all, what I teach you now is the real evolution method! As for why you want to get rid of female ghost insects, the reason is very simple, because the next step of evolution is to use female ghost insects as food to feed male ghost insects!"

Ma Yi heard this and nodded gloomily. The method that Huo Wuyuan said was indeed completely different from the book he got from Yan Kui. However, Ma Yilong really has nothing to doubt about the words of this ghost senior.

In the next half a month, Ma Yilong has been feeding male ghost insects with his own essence and blood according to the method taught by Huo Wuyuan. As the days go by, his induction with the male ghost insect continues to strengthen, and the control between the female ghost insect and the male ghost insect is quietly opened, and it is becoming more and more difficult to control the male ghost insect through the female ghost insect!

Half a month passed quickly, and everything changed.

When the male ghost insect looked at Ma Yilong at first, his eyes were very indifferent, and there was even a hint of hostility, but at this moment, he became very affectionate, and there was a faint trace of dependence. And between the male ghost insect and the female ghost worm, it has become completely strange at this moment.

After half a month, the spiritual energy produced by the ghost pawns that the male ghost worm had previously devoured had been completely absorbed by it, and his body had also undergone tremendous changes. Originally, the figure of the male ghost insect in Ma Yilong's sight had completely disappeared at this moment.

If you want to observe with your divine thoughts alone, Ma Yilong can't detect the existence of male ghost insects. However, at this time, a powerful induction has been established between Ma Yilong and the male ghost insect, and Ma Yilong can easily lock the location of the male ghost insect with this induction.

Moreover, at this time, Ma Yilong can also easily command the male ghost insect with his mind.

Seeing this result, Huo Wuyuan once again invited Ma Yilong outside the cave and set a simple ban. However, this time Ma Yilong did not stand honestly outside the cave, out of curiosity, Ma Yilong decided to eavesdrop.

Through such a long period of contact with Huo Wuyuan, Ma Yilong also has a certain understanding of the ban, and such a simple ban still can't stop him. However, the miserable screams made by the female ghost insect were indeed a little chilling, and Ma Yilong couldn't listen to it after listening to it for a while.

When Ma Yilong returned to the cave, everything was over. The female ghost insect is gone, and the male ghost insect also fell into a coma after eating the female ghost insect ten times his size, as if he was hibernating, and he could not wake up at all.

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye, and the male ghost worm finally woke up. However, at this time, this ghost insect is obviously different from before. What Ma Yilong sensed was that this ghost worm had a stronger ability to hide, and its body was much smaller than before, and even its ability to devour ghosts was also stronger. Previously, it could only devour one ghost at a time, but at this moment, a thin black line erupted, and it could turn three or five ghosts into yin qi and inhale it into its stomach in an instant.

The evolution of ghost insects made Ma Yilong excited.

In the past month, Zheng Jiang came back to visit Ma Yilong every three or two days and reported to him the situation on the Chiyun Dao people and Wang He's side. But for Zheng Jiang, Ma Yilong has never been able to fully believe it.

At this time, the ghost insect had completed the first two stages of evolution, and Ma Yilong naturally wanted to test it, so he used his heart to drive the ghost insect and tracked Zheng Jiang. In the end, it was confirmed that Zheng Jiang had indeed not deceived himself and was telling the truth.

Ma Yilong was happy, and further shocked Zheng Jiang, he used divination as a cover, and in front of Zheng Jiang, he made it clear what he had done in a day. Under such circumstances, Zheng Jiang completely gave up his luck in his heart.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Ma Yilong took further plans.

Three days later, his plan paid off. With Zheng Jiang's efforts, the people of Chiyun Dao finally announced the results of the handling of Ma Yilong, Wang Xian and others who were privately seeking revenge:

Wang Xian, as a senior who started one step earlier, took the initiative to find fault with just a little thing, and led Wang He and others to seek revenge in private, Wang Xian, Zhang Hun, Li Zhu, and Xie Kui are not forgiven, because they are dead, they will not be investigated.

Li Ao didn't know right from wrong, and although the broken leg was connected, he still had to be driven out of the mountain gate. Although Wang He also went with him, because he did not participate in the action, he was punished for thinking about it for 100 days. Ma Yilong, out of self-preservation, although he killed someone, he was also forced to be helpless and did not need to accept punishment! However, in order to prevent the matter from further expanding, Ma Yilong was not allowed to leave the sect within a year.

In order to show favor to Ma Yilong, Zheng Jiang informed Ma Yilong of the punishment result as soon as possible. After confirming the accuracy of this news repeatedly, Ma Yilong walked out of the cave with a smile and swaggered back to his cave in the outer hall.

An hour later, it was completely dark. On the steps down the mountain, a figure walked alone. This figure, in his twenties, seven feet tall, with a long sword behind his back, was none other than Li Ao who had been driven out of the sect.

At this moment, Li Ao walked freely, his broken leg had fully recovered, and he did not leave any disability, but his expression was extremely lonely. The reason why Li Ao wanted to go down the mountain at this time was to prevent someone from seeking revenge from him in private.

However, before Li Ao could walk out of the outer hall area, a dark shadow flickered in front of him, and someone grabbed his way. When Li Ao saw the face of the person who came clearly, he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. Because, the person who blocked his way was Ma Yilong!
