Overlord: Insect Eater

Chapter 166 Battle

The choice of the Tenth Son was indeed somewhat unexpected, but it was also in line with his character.

"Heavenly Worm, I wonder what your plans are next?" After a brief chat, the Tenth Son asked casually.

Tian Chong said with a flat face: "Next, I will find a quiet place to practice spiritual power, and see if I can make a breakthrough before the end of the Emperor's Tomb..."

After going through many tests in the Nine Realms Tower, Tian Chong's physical body has been greatly improved, and his spiritual power has also been greatly tempered in the process, so now he has reached the edge of breakthrough.

Hearing this, the Tenth Son secretly said "It's a pity" in his heart. Originally, he wanted to invite this guy to explore an emperor's tomb with him.

You must know that he is not the only Holy Son who entered the Zonghuang Tomb, and the competition among the Holy Sons is even more intense than that between ordinary people.

The reason why the Tenth Son chooses to befriend the Heavenly Insect may not be because he doesn't want to use the other party to help him.

It's just that Tian Chong found the reason too well, and from the ups and downs of spiritual power fluctuations around him, it can be seen that he is not lying, so all the words that the Tenth Son had prepared suddenly had no effect.

"After the Zonghuang Tomb, there will be a battle for the Holy Son. With your strength, Tianworm, you should have a great chance to stand out, so it is right to work hard to improve your cultivation base. As long as you can make up for your shortcomings in this area, there will be a lot of opportunities." It is very possible to sit on the position of No.12 Holy Son." The tenth holy son, Chong Yang, said sincerely.

Tianchong nodded with gratitude on his face, and said, "Thank you Holy Son for your teaching, I will pay attention to this."

Chong Yang nodded, and after speaking a few unnutritious words to Tian Chong again, he left with his own people.

As for the group of people around, they saw that they had nothing to eat and no profit, so they left one after another.

It's just that Tianchong noticed that among the leaving crowd, a gaze stayed on him for a long time. At first, he thought that someone was trying to trick him, but later he learned from Xuege that The person who just looked over turned out to be the first genius of their last Tianmai class!

"You guy is really, don't you even know the geniuses in your own lineage?" Xue Ge was very speechless to the surprised-looking Tian Chong beside him.

You even need yourself, an outsider, to introduce someone from your clan to him. How miserable are you in the clan?
Tian Chong didn't think anything of it, anyway, in the entire Tianmai, he could only remember one or two younger generations, and the only one who could speak was Tian Yi...

But thinking of Tianyi, it seems that this guy has also come to the Emperor's Tomb, but he doesn't know where this guy is now.

Putting these irrelevant situations behind for a while, Tian Chong looked at the snow gnat beside him, smiled lightly, and said, "Go, I have something good to show you..."

Regardless of whether Tian Chong's ambiguous words were intentional or not, Xue Ge was very interested anyway, and followed Brother Jie directly into the house...

On the fifth floor of the Nine Realms Tower, in the flame world composed entirely of magma, the figures of celestial insects and snow otters suddenly appeared here.

The sudden high temperature directly made the seventh-rank supreme's snow otter almost stretched. In this environment, her strength was at most only [-]% left.

"This is..." Xuege quickly used spiritual power to arrange a layer of heat insulation around her body, and then looked at Tian Chong with a puzzled expression.

"Hehe, this is within the space of the Zonghuang Tomb before, this is the fifth floor."

Xue He frowned when she heard this, she didn't expect the fifth floor to be so dangerous, if she was allowed to break into here alone, not to mention that she was only a seventh-rank supreme, I'm afraid even a ninth-rank supreme would be too difficult to pass the level !
There is no way, such things as attribute mutual restraint still have a great impact on her performance.

"Is there anything special here?" Xue Ge's pretty face was slightly wrinkled, she was very uncomfortable with the environment here.

"It's nothing, it's just that the spiritual energy here contains strong fire energy, which has a strong supporting effect on body refining and energy refining. In addition, the rich spiritual energy here is sixteen times that of the outside world. The speed of cultivation here will definitely exceed Your imagination." Tian Chong said with a smile.

Hearing the words, Xue He immediately thought that the other party wanted to help her improve her cultivation, but she ignored that her spiritual power attribute was completely incompatible with this place, so she apologized: "Thank you for your kindness, but my spiritual power attribute and It's completely the opposite here, those auras that contain anger may be good medicine for ordinary people, but they are completely poisonous for me, so I can only decline your kindness..."

Tianchong immediately showed a look of surprise when he heard the words, and said, "Ah, I know...but I didn't tell you to practice here, did I?"

Xuegu: "?"

Seeing such a cold girl showing the question mark face of his bankrupt sister Max, Tian Chong couldn't help laughing out loud.

Under a sharp gaze, Tian Chong quickly used his master's privileged ability to directly bring the two of them to the sixth floor...

Feeling the terrifying power of extreme cold around him and the suddenly active spiritual power in his body, Xue Yan was instantly sure that this man was deliberately messing with him just now!

"boring!"

Couldn't help but give this wicked man a supercilious look, Xue Yan immediately tossed it to the back of his mind, then cheerfully rushed into the ice and snow in front of him, and even opened his arms, as if wanting to give the sky a hug. The look of a hug.

Such a place is my home field!
Especially after feeling the extreme cold power fused in the aura in this space, Xue Ge was very surprised. If she can practice here, her improvement speed will reach a terrifying level, even Even the power of ice in its body will be strengthened.

"Can I practice here?"

"Naturally!" Heavenly Insect nodded.

"If it wasn't for you this time, I wouldn't have gotten such a great opportunity, so I have to thank you very much."

This is the truth, if he hadn't met Xuegu, he would never have been able to find this emperor's tomb with the Nine Realms Tower as the main body, let alone get this high-level holy object.

It can be said that the Heavenly Insect owes too much favor this time...

"No need, it was agreed at the beginning, you help my snow gnat monster break through to the eighth rank, and I will bring you to this insect emperor's tomb. It is entirely your own ability to obtain these abilities, and has nothing to do with me."

Xuegu was very sober and said directly.

Tian Chong nodded, and had a new understanding of the other party's heart and character.

Sure enough, the reality is not to write novels, how can there be so many brain-dead all wanting to trouble the protagonist.

"Are you sure you don't want to, so you don't want to see what the thank you gift I prepared?" Tian Chong said with a playful smile.

Xue Ge didn't even think about it, and said directly: "No need, I said, no matter what you have prepared, I won't..."

Before the words were finished, Xue He couldn't speak any more.

Because, at this time, in Tian Chong's hand, a ball of transparent football-sized light ball is floating in the palm of his hand, and within this transparent light ball, one can clearly see a miniature ball with six heads and nine bodies. The little monster is cruising in the light group.

"This, this is..." Xue He felt that her voice was trembling, even though she had been telling herself in her heart to be calm and maintain her image, it was useless at all.

"Six heads, nine bodies and forty-eight thousand feet, is this an ancient cold cockle?!" Xue Cockle's voice was a bit sharp, which shows how shocked the girl was at this moment.

That is the ancient cold gnat, one of the most powerful ice-type insect emperors in the legend. Except in the records, the snow gnat has never seen such a terrifying existence.

Compared with it, her own natal spirit insect, the snow gnat, is nothing at all!

"That's right, it's the ancient cold gnat, and he was also the owner of the emperor's tomb..." Tian Chong was very satisfied when he saw the shocked look of the girl opposite, and nodded.

"The one in my hand now is the last bit of spirit of this ancient cold gnat. Although there is only such a small amount, it is still a priceless treasure for the spirit insects of the cold gnat."

"How about it, do you still want to refuse?"

Tangled, very tangled.

This is what Xue He was thinking at this time.

This guy is so hateful!
Xue Yan can be sure that the man in front of him did it on purpose.

But looking at this ancient cold cockle spirit, she really didn't have the courage to say the words of refusal confidently.

"Forget it, I won't tease you, this was prepared for you. But this is not for free, after you return to the snow veins, you need to give me a hundred ice silkworms with the highest qualification!"

Now there are hundreds of Snow Soul Orbs in Tian Chong's pocket. If there are enough ice silkworms with high aptitude, then he can cultivate a group of ice spirit butterflies.

As for basic ice-type spirit insects like ice silkworms, that is one of Xuemai's signatures, and only they can produce a sufficient number of ice silkworms that meet the requirements of the heavenly insects at one time.

"This...thank you!" Taking a deep breath, Xue Ge solemnly thanked Tian Chong.

She knew very well that those ice silkworms were just an excuse, let alone a hundred, even a thousand or ten thousand, they would not be able to compare with this ancient cold cockle.

Of course, the reason why Tian Chong did this was not entirely because he wanted to repay the snow gnat's favor. More importantly, when he got the Nine Realms Tower, he had already promised the true spirit of the ancient cold gnat that he would give the snow gnat a favor. The soul has found a cold clam species with sufficient qualifications as a sustenance.

Of course, this soul essence is not something that the ancient cold gnats are about to seize and rebirth. After all, this soul essence does not contain any soul breath except for the purest blood power.

So there is no such thing as seizing the house, it's just that the ancient cold gnats want to leave a little something for their own group.

"It's still early until the end of the exploration of the Emperor's Tomb. The environment here is just right for your snow gnats and monsters to fuse with this spirit. Next, you should practice hard here..."

According to Heavenly Insect's guess, if the snow gnat magic worm can perfectly integrate the soul, it may be promoted to the level of the blood of a generation of worm emperors, and its strength will definitely enter the ninth-rank supreme realm. There are huge benefits to be gained from this process.

As for Tian Chong himself, he was planning to go to the fifth floor to practice.

Compared with the tempering of the power of extreme cold, he prefers the fire that is full of the fifth floor, or he can combine the two to experience the pleasure of the nine heavens of ice and fire...

The fifth floor of the Nine Realms Tower, the world of flames.

A huge black mountain range stands in a crimson magma sea. What is strange is that this black mountain range can actually see a very obvious head and tail, like a bull nesting in the water.

And just below the bull's head, outside a red hole that looked like a crater, a tiny figure was sitting here cross-legged.

Needless to say, this person is a worm.And this huge black mountain range under him is the lava rock beetle king who has lived here for countless years.

After Tian Chong got the master of this Nine Realms Pagoda from the hands of the ancient cold gnat true spirit, all the creatures here have a new master, and that is Tian Chong.

"Although the concentration of aura in the fifth layer is only half of that in the sixth layer, the lava rock beetle king can devour the magma at an extremely fast speed to transform into a more pure and hotter spiritual power, and this spiritual power It’s much stronger than the fire-filled aura floating outside.”

This is also the reason why the Heavenly Insect chose to practice on the lava rock beetle emperor. He even released the ancient Heavenly Dragon Centipede, which is also of the fire attribute, to allow it to devour energy here to practice.

The only one who was unhappy was probably Jin Chan, because just now No.90 had rejected his proposal to devour those lava rock beetles here eight times.

I don't know if it was the special switch that Jin Chan was turned on by devouring the group of ice and snow spirits before, but now this little thing has been obsessed with it.

In particular, each floor of the Nine Realms Pagoda has so many powerful attribute Zerg and the terrifying aura, which makes Jin Chan covet.

"Anyway, outsiders can't come in here without your permission, and you don't have to worry about being discovered by outsiders..." Jin Chan was still determined to reason with Tian Chong.

It's a pity, he didn't see the crux of the problem clearly from the very beginning!
"You should give up on this idea. This is the most important treasure in my hand. If you swallow this group of spirit insects that have existed here since ancient times, then I will Wouldn't the Nine Realms Tower be half destroyed? So don't even think about such a thing!"

Seeing that Tianchong refused so simply, Jin Chan immediately felt downhearted.

Forget it, stop loving, get tired, destroy it...

Ignoring Jin Chan's thoughts, Tian Chong slowly closed his eyes and began to practice.

Time passes quickly in this space.

During this cultivation process, Tian Chong's Golden Cicada Reincarnation Art was fully activated, which allowed him to devour spiritual power at an extremely terrifying speed, and even the concentration of spiritual energy on the fifth level was absorbed by him. Some are in short supply.

Without any hesitation, Tian Chong directly took out all the last Fallen Origin Pills, and even at the end, even the Supreme Spiritual Liquid was swallowed by him.

Under this kind of huge energy supply, the sea level of the Supreme Sea in the vision behind Tian Chong has obviously risen, and the sea water transformed by the spiritual power is also deeper, and there are extreme waves between the rolling waves. The tyrannical spiritual power exploded.

The spiritual coercion emanating from the worm's body is increasing at an astonishing speed...
