Chapter 1406: Improved Totem Insect
…"As the sense of being possessed sensed that the spiritual energy within him was nearly depleted, a look of intense panic suddenly appeared on his face. He could no longer maintain the spiritual ener...A glimpse of the Tianmu butterfly, a mere shadow revealing a hint of the scene.
...but it gave Qin Sang a very dangerous feeling.
He couldn't plainly tell Mu Guzhu and the others, so he could only vaguely remind them.
If they don't listen, Qin Sang won't force them.
At the very least, he definitely needed to wait for the beam of light to weaken before going in.
Fortunately, the three masters of Mu were astute and experienced. They could sense that something was amiss without Qin Sang needing to say much.
"I just don't know how long I'll have to wait..."
The Qi-surname cultivator showed a worried expression and looked around.
The ethereal sea is no longer as calm as it once was.
The aftermath of the light pillar's emission formed a ferocious storm, sweeping across the entire Linghai Sea.
Everywhere the eye can see, towering waves are endless.
Ahead of them, the sea collapsed, revealing a giant chasm. At its depths lay the source of the beam of light, and the broken lotus flower.
Besides the four of them, no other figures or boats were visible at the moment.
But they all knew this was just temporary.
Such a commotion, it's impossible to hide. Lower-level cultivators are insignificant, but if there were Nascent Soul cultivators nearby, they would surely be drawn in.
“Just watch and wait, everyone. Recover first so you’re prepared for what comes next. If we delay too long, it might turn into a treasure hunt…”
The Valley Master couldn't help but chuckle wryly when he thought of the time and effort he had invested in breaking the formation.
and not counting others.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
For this, he had always attached great importance to the self-destruction of the Yan Jade Bee. Arranging the Three Spirits Disk Array twice and refining two altars was also a huge consumption.
Also made a deal with Qin Sang.
I only hope that the future harvest can make up for the losses.
>
With the lotus broken, there's no need for the Three Spirits Disk King Formation anymore. Entering the Pure Sea Sect, with the Fire Jade Centipede's own realm, it could perceive the Ten Thousand Spirit Fruit.
Mu Guzhu stops the insect formation.
Qin Sang stretched out his hand, and the fire jade centipede flew back to his palm.
Originally a fiery red, the body now appears dull and lifeless.
The fire jade centipede lay on Qin Sang's hand, not even willing to move its two sides of feet, its whole body stiff and its breath weak.
If not for Qin Sang being able to sense the consciousness of the Fire Jade Centipede, he would have thought it had turned into a sculpture.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
“Bang!”
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Qin Sang took out a jade bottle.
Inside, there is spiritual dew bestowed by the Valley Master. It can alleviate the injuries caused by spirit insects.
>
After entering the Jinghai Sect, one still needs to be led by the Huo Yu Centipede. Every little bit of recovery helps.
The spiritual dew dripped before the fire jade centipede, and was immediately licked clean by it. It perked up a little, its body swaying slightly, then fell back into a deep sleep.
Qin Sang glanced at it and retracted his hand into his robe.
"Friend of the Way"
Qin Sang reminded Mu Guzhu that their previous agreement was due to be fulfilled.
The fire jade centipede has proven its worth, and the entrance has been found. Although it's currently inaccessible, it's not Qin Sang's fault.
The head of the Mu Sect let out a light sigh, somewhat unwillingly tossing a jade slip to Qin Sang.
>
Qin Sang politely declined and hurriedly probed the contents with his divine sense.
Of course, the Valley Master wouldn't hand over her entire legacy to him. Inside was only the secret art of manipulating natal insects and poisons unique to Hundred Flowers Valley.
Qin Sang had anticipated this, but seeing it still made him sigh in wonder. It truly came from the same source.
He was right. The Hundred Flowers Valley's signature technique of insect manipulation was a refined version of the Wuzhu clan's legacy, transformed into a secret art suitable for human cultivation. The refinement was incredibly ingenious, widening Qin Sang's horizons.
Even if Qin Sang cultivated the original version of the natal insect Gu technique, he couldn't do this.
This couldn't help but make Qin Sang wonder, are there truly prodigies in this world who possess unparalleled talent and learn an unprecedented secret art, allowing them to come up with such ingenious methods out of thin air
However, this kind of modification is not without its flaws.
Firstly, disciples who cultivate natal insect gu must possess a water-type spiritual root and must contract a spirit worm that aligns with water power as their natal insect gu to minimize the risk of being devoured by it.
Qin Sang glanced at Mu Guzhu and understood why the disciples of Baicahua Valley all had spirit insects like this, including Mu Guzhu himself.
Secondly, even after modification, the spirit worm is not as close to its master as a natal worm gu of a shaman cultivator.
>
The Jade Tablet only contains information for those below the Nascent Soul stage.
However, Qin Sang didn't force it, these were enough to let him see many things.
>
The higher the realm of alteration techniques, the more difficult they become.
Qin Sang guessed that the inheritance of Baihua Valley was limited, possibly only reaching the late or middle stage of Yuanying. He wondered if the valley master had risked everything to break into Jinghai Sect in search of a way forward
"Huh"
Qin Sang suddenly realized a problem.
The inheritance of Hundred Flower Valley is not as good as the original version.
Their relationship with their natal insects is not as close as that of the Tianmu butterfly and itself.
>
The chances of successfully ascending for oneself as a Tianmu Butterfly should be higher than for the cultivators of Baihuagou!
This unexpected discovery made Qin Sang quite pleased. If he could find the Wanling Fruit later, his chances of ascending would increase significantly! Unfortunately, the Huoyu Centipede wasn't his natal insect Gu, so whether it could break through to its fourth transformation in the future depended entirely on luck.
As for the fat silkworm.
Qin Sang has been hesitating, wondering if she should use the Spirit Ascension Ritual on it.
The fat silkworm wasn't his spirit insect, the chance of success was certainly pitiful. It would be a waste of opportunity, not worth it at all.
Furthermore, the fat caterpillar's abilities are single-minded. It can now easily withstand the fierce toxins released by the metamorphic stage frogs, which is enough to cope with most situations and there is no need to force further advancement for the time being.
These thoughts flashed through my mind.
Qin Sang destroyed the jade slip in front of Mu Guzhu, and with a wry smile, he transmitted his voice: "No wonder Daoist friend is so generous. It turns out that you have cultivated your natal insect gu, occupying the position of your natal magic treasure. Even if I obtain this secret art, I wouldn't be able to cultivate it anymore."
The Head of the Sect, Mu, burst into laughter. "My sect's transmission is special and has extremely high requirements for talent. Even if your aptitude is sufficient, Dao Chang, you have already missed the opportunity to cultivate. However, this was created with great effort by my ancestors, and it should be able to inspire Dao Chang."
"As you say, friend."
Qin Sang nodded perfunctorily.
During their whispered conversation, the visions not only failed to weaken, but grew stronger.
It's more than twice as inflated as before.
Qin Sang and they were forced to retreat a distance.
Time flows slowly.
Soon, one night passed.
It was the morning of the next day.
Qin Sang and his companions tirelessly watched every change in the anomalies.
In the distance, a ship was floating on the sea. Several figures stood on deck.
Two of them were cultivators at the Golden Core stage. They traveled through the Void Spirit Sea and saw a vision, thinking it was a rare treasure emerging. Overjoyed, they rushed to find it, but unexpectedly bumped into four Nascent Soul ancestors, all trembling with fear.
Fortunately, the other party was not a completely ruthless person and did not kill to cover up the matter.
In a short while, another immortal cultivator's treasure ship arrived and was also detained, bound by a simple restriction on the sea surface. No one dared to speak up.
The Empty Spirit Sea is safe and has always been an important shipping lane.
More and more people and boats were drawn in, all left behind.
As for the people in other places, Qin Sang and they could no longer take care of them.
Another day and night has passed.
The visions grew increasingly intense.
As of yet, no Yuanying has made an appearance.
Just as they were in a state of panic, the beam finally stopped expanding and began to shrink!
Please: wap.shuqugeYu nodded in understanding and said, "Let's have both of you ask the fellow cultivators to stop first. Although the flesh puppets were born from the Black Tower Array, they are not sentient beings, no...
