Chapter 8 Blood Worm Gu
The fifth-level 'Ghost Shadow Centipede' has an attack power equivalent to that of a monk at the thirteenth layer of the Qi training period, coupled with the countless first- and second-level 'Ghost Shadow Centipedes' nearby, it is naturally extremely threatening to Lu Xiaojia, who only has a cultivation of the twelfth layer of the Qi training period, and Ye Shengying, who is at the thirteenth level of the Qi training period.
Ye Shengying had already released the 'Black Yin Insect', and Lu Xiaojia also took out the exquisite little sword, and the small area was tense at the moment, and the atmosphere became extremely tense.
The two fifth-level 'ghost shadow centipedes' saw the 'Black Shadow Worms' flying in the air circling in the air, and the 'Black Shadow Worms' who made an attack posture retreated a little fearfully, but they didn't intend to stop there, they just vibrated their front whiskers and let out a low snort.
With Xie Ling's current cultivation, he naturally wouldn't be afraid of them, but when he heard Ye Shengying say that the fifth-level 'ghost shadow centipede' was extremely rare, and he was only one step away from advancing to the sixth level and giving birth to a pair of flying wings, the thought moved in his heart.
Xie Ling was thinking about how to subdue these two spirit insects, while Ye Shengying and Lu Xiaojia were thinking about how to kill them. At this moment, suddenly, the two fifth-level 'ghost shadow centipedes' on the opposite side seemed to smell something, twisted their bodies, and actually turned around and shot out from behind.
Xie Ling saw a pang in his heart, and instantly expanded his divine sense to the limit, covering the surrounding distance of two hundred zhang.
"Huh 6161616161" He frowned and turned to look diagonally into the woods diagonally.
Although Ye Shengying and Lu Xiaojia couldn't sense anything with their divine senses, they were far more proficient in poison than Xie Ling, and it would never be easy to scare off two fifth-level 'ghost shadow centipedes', and they would not hesitate to strengthen the talisman light shield by three points at the expense of spiritual power.
It didn't take long to hear the sound of the whirring wind, the sound of brushing and pulling the leaves, first a peculiar smell came from the opposite side, and then I saw a three-foot-long beast, it looked like an ordinary skunk, covered in brown and black hair, a pair of small eyes swept towards the three of them, and then quickly went in the direction of the fifth-level 'ghost shadow centipede' to escape.
"It's a ferret, oh my God, it's actually advanced to level five!" Ye Shengying exclaimed.
Weasel is the nemesis of ghost shadow centipedes, their innate attributes are not high, and they generally stop advancing when they reach level three, so they will not tolerate ghost shadow centipedes advancing to level three or above. This time, not only did there be two fifth-level ghost shadow centipedes, but also a fifth-level spirit weasel, Ye Shengying slapped his head and said: "I know why these two ghost shadow centipedes can advance to level five, it was the spirit weasel just now that deliberately let them live until now, it has to advance again, only by eating two ghost shadow centipedes of the same level is possible, it already has a trace of spirituality!"
"Tut-tut 6161616161 what a bold spirit beast, it does this, the pair of fifth-level ghost shadow centipedes also have a chance to advance to the sixth level, as long as you eat it, no matter who survives to the last moment this time, there will be a new king in this area!"
Xie Ling also sighed when he heard this! This is the case between beasts and beasts, how is it not the case between people and people, to become a king, every step is to trample on the body or will of the loser to move forward, whether you want to or not!
The three of them sighed a few words and continued to move forward, having to find a place to stay before dark.
They walked the mountain road that the disciples of the Absolute Poison Sect usually entered, but this road was usually rarely walked, and it was already full of thorns, so it was not difficult to break them, but the speed was not fast, and when it was almost dark, they only crossed a mountain.
The gurgling stream flows through the rocks, this mountain stream is the place where Ye Shengying is scheduled to stay, there is water, the terrain is open, and there is nothing else except the rocks.
Xie Ling was about to pour water to drink, but was stopped by Ye Shengying, "Be careful of Gu worms" After he finished speaking, he took out a white porcelain bowl from his arms, bent down to scoop up a bowl of water, and then threw a pill the size of a mung bean into it. At first, there was no reaction when the pill was suspended on the surface of the water, but after a while, the originally calm clear water rolled up, and Xie Ling was surprised to see that there was actually a trace of tiny red worms floating out of the water, twisting his body and wondering how many!
"This is a blood worm Gu, they are generally put down in the water by people, and after being accidentally eaten by humans and animals, they will lurk in their internal organs, and they usually look no different from normal people, only Gu people can see it. Once they activate the Gu worms, the abdominal pain will be like a knife, and the worst will be eaten by the blood worms in an instant and the internal organs will be broken and killed, which is extremely cruel!" Ye Shengying said as she poured out the water in the bowl.
Xie Ling was secretly frightened when he heard this, and looked at the gurgling stream and was speechless!
"You can't drink this water, let's eat an apple!" Lu Xiaojia threw over a red apple.
Xie Ling took the apple, saw Ye Shengying frowning and looking at the upper reaches of the stream, and wondered: "What, is there anything wrong?"
"Blood Worm Gu, like the Great Logarithmic Gu Worm, can't be exposed for too long, there may be someone on it!" he muttered.
Xie Ling had already swept the surrounding area with his divine sense, but he didn't find anything abnormal, thinking that maybe that kind of Gu person had stayed away, maybe the divine power was above him and couldn't detect it, no matter what kind of thing it was, it was always good to be more careful in this dangerous jungle.
Lu Xiaojia sat on a protruding rock, eating an apple in her mouth, but she didn't seem to be too worried.
Ye Shengying took out a gourd and poured out some white powder around the three of them until they formed a circle.
"Sprinkle them, and ordinary snakes and insects won't crawl in the dark!"
Xie Ling smelled a faint spicy smell, and also found a larger stone to sit down, the mountain road is not easy to walk, and the energy consumed is far greater than usual, and it is time to rest and recuperate.
The night was very dark, and the starlight in the sky fell on the stream, and in the upper reaches of the stream, the lame old man in sackcloth looked at the three people below, carrying a cloth bag. Suddenly, a strange smile appeared on his face, he put down the cloth bag on his back, opened the opening tied to it, and poured out a bunch of wriggling blood nematodes from it, dozens of times the size of the blood worm Gu that Ye Shengying scooped up from the stream, each with the thickness of a finger, a thin head and tail, and an average size. They slowly swim into the stream and descend down the stream.
Gu poison belongs to a large category of wood poison, and the Absolute Poison Sect used to have hundreds of sects of all sizes before the opening of the Scorpion Needle Mountain. Among them, there are two major sects, namely the Golden Silkworm Sect and the Grass Ghost Sect.
There are many types of Gu, and the Golden Silkworm Sect mainly focuses on raising Golden Silkworm Gu. This kind of Gu insect is said to be fearless of fire, water, and fire, invisible and traceless, and good at changing, so it is the most difficult to eradicate. The Golden Silkworm Gu, which was regarded as a holy insect by the Golden Silkworm Sect, was the Yuan Shen Monk who saw it, and he had to flee when he heard the wind, which was extremely powerful.
The Grass Ghost Sect is very peculiar, it only accepts female disciples, it is said that they use their own menstrual blood to raise Gu, and after the Gu worms are formed, they can be sent to them, and they have great power in their gestures.
These two major sects gradually decayed after the Absolute Poison Sect entered Southern Xinjiang, and finally completely disappeared hundreds of years ago, only a small number of disciples are still scattered outside, continuing to continue the inheritance, but they are already alone, and they can no longer achieve absolute control over Southern Xinjiang in their heyday!
The lame old man in Mai is surnamed Wu, and his name is self-styled, which is one of the few relics of the Golden Silkworm Sect. A few months ago, he received a shocking news about the true cause of the fall of the Golden Silkworm Sect, this news was too shocking, if it wasn't for the person who delivered the news and handed him a token of the sect at the same time, he would never have believed that it was true.
After he finished releasing the Gu worms, he put away the cloth bag, this cloth bag is not an ordinary thing, it is a water-attribute magic weapon, those Gu worms like moist places, it is just right to use it.
Coming out of the hermitage, through various ways, Wu Zidao contacted the remaining fellow disciples he knew, and met Ye Shengying and others in Gulong Town on the way to the meeting. Originally, before doing that big thing, he didn't want to be too public. Who knew that Ye Shengying took out the 'Black Yin Insect'. This kind of spirit worm, which has a restrain effect on most poisons, suddenly aroused his covetousness, so he rushed ahead of the three of them and lowered the blood worm Gu into the stream.
This was originally a perfect method, but it was unexpectedly seen through by the cautious Ye Shengying, so she had to use a big move to directly release the blood worm Gu adult.
Blood Worm Gu is a kind of Gu worm that is sacrificed with the blood of humans and animals. They are divided into three stages, the first stage is the larvae that Ye Shengying scooped out of the stream. Under normal circumstances, these larvae are dormant and cannot be seen by the naked eye when they are placed in water, and Ye Shengying only woke them up from their slumber with medicine at that time. This kind of Gu worm is usually eaten when the opponent is not paying attention. It mainly uses water as a medium, which is regarded as the poison of water.
The second stage is the adult. The person who raises the Gu selects the best one from the larvae, stimulates it with secret techniques, feeds it with blood food, and under the continuous sacrifice, the body becomes huge, and the sharp weapon can still be connected by itself when it is cut in two, and it is not afraid of water and fire, and the blood does not stop flowing when it is bitten, and the wound can never heal. When a patch of blood worm Gu adults crawls towards you, you'd better run away.
As for the third stage, it is the mother worm. The adults will devour each other under the stimulation of the secret arts, and the last thing left is the mother worm. This kind of Gu worm with extremely tenacious vitality and rapid movements, when Monk Jindan saw it, he could only take a detour, and he didn't dare to provoke it lightly. The lame old man in Mai only cultivated in the early stage of foundation building, and he had not yet been able to cultivate a mother worm, but this bag of adult worms had already allowed him to kill strong enemies many times!
