Overlord: Insect Eater

Chapter 235 The response to the sky insects

When he came out of the clan leader, Tian Chong's face was obviously happy, and he obviously got some answers he wanted.

As for the reward given to him by the clan, he didn't care much about it. After all, it was nothing more than some resources. Now the Celestial Insect is not short of ordinary resources.

As for those rare resources, there may not be many of them in the Spirit Insect Clan.

It's just that for cultivating monsters like Tian Chong, it is impossible for the Spirit Insect Clan to ignore them. Even the leader of the Spirit Insect Clan is ready to directly declare Tian Chong as its first heir.

Of course, if there is a first heir, there will be second, third and fourth, so this is just to increase the status of Tianchong by half a level.

What really makes Tianchong happy is that the clan leader has promised to wait for the right time to take him to the depths of the insect world to meet the only remaining ancestor of the spirit insect clan, the ancient ancestor insect emperor...

This is the ancestor of the entire Spirit Zerg tribe, Dinghai Shenzhen, and the only pillar that keeps the Spirit Zerg tribe from dying out like other races over the long years.

Even though the Spirit Insect Clan Leader has now broken through to Heavenly Supreme, in front of this ancestor, he can still be deprived of his position as Clan Leader with just one sentence.

As long as he can gain this approval, the status and power of the Sky Insect in the entire Spirit Insect Clan will be second only to the clan leader!

"Well, let's solve these little troubles first..."

If you want to truly control the resources of the Spirit Zerg for your own use, you still need to have enough power in your hands. You can't let him do every little thing personally, that would be too cheap.

Just like now, in the Golden Stone Region, there are just some small figures testing the Holy Palace for the time being. If Tianchong takes action directly at this time, it will not only cause criticism, but also make other Holy Palaces and branches look down upon him. Even if Tian Chong becomes the first heir to the clan leader, it will be difficult to command these people...

They don't dare to resist openly, but it's always okay to defy them openly, right?Is it possible to kill all these people?This is obviously impossible...

Therefore, in many cases, internal power struggles cannot be suppressed directly and violently like outside.

"It's better to find some people who can be used first..."

After thinking about it, apart from the twelve branches of Tianmai, there is only one Snow Vein that Tianchong is familiar with. As long as he opens his mouth, these people can indeed bring some help to him, but it is absolutely impossible for them all to join the Twelve Holy Palaces. Under his command.

As for the reason, it is also very simple.

Not to mention that Tianmai is one of the four main bloodlines. It is independent. Even the clan leader cannot interfere in its internal affairs. Therefore, as long as the leader of Tianmai does not agree, it is impossible for the twelve branches to leave Tianmai. Otherwise, it will be a rebellion. clan.

As for the Snow Veins, as one of the large branch veins besides the four main veins, their goal is to become an existence like the main veins. Naturally, they are even less likely to join others and completely eliminate their hope of becoming the main veins.

What's more, the power of a large-scale branch lineage is too huge. If the Celestial Insect dares to take action directly, I am afraid that even the clan leader may take action to stop it, so these are excluded first.

"So now I can only choose some small and medium-sized branch veins to start with..."

Tian Chong didn't understand these small and medium-sized branch veins at all, and even not many people in the Twelve Sacred Palaces knew about them. After thinking about it again and again, Tian Chong still asked Tian Qiu, the master of the twelve branch veins, to help.

When he came to the twelve branches again, Tianchong clearly discovered the difference in the branches at this time.

As the pulse master Tianqiu was promoted to the upper level supreme, his status within the Tianmai instantly changed... Originally, with such strength, he was qualified to become one of the four elders of the Tianmai and become the fifth elder.

But considering that he is the only one in the Twelve Branches now, if he leaves the Twelve Branches, he is likely to be separated and annexed by other branches, so Tianqiu finally rejected the invitation of the Twelve Branches, Tian Jue, and chose to stay in the Twelve Branches. pulse.

As a result, the strength of the Twelve Branches suddenly skyrocketed. Both the surrounding spheres of influence and the vassals who chose to join in the service showed an explosive increase. This also allowed the original genius disciples of the Twelve Branches to gain more in the past two years. resources and strength have also increased rapidly.

The most obvious thing is that the five powerful young men selected together with Tian Chong. Except for the pervert Tian Chong, the remaining four people, headed by Tian Centi, have all received huge improvements.

Among them, the most exaggerated one, Tian Centi, has now been promoted to the ninth-grade supreme realm, and has become the most promising being to break through to the supreme realm and inherit the position of pulse master.

Of course, all of this is indispensable to Tianchong's contribution. If it weren't for the spiritual liquid that was given to Tianqiu, the latter would not have been able to break through in such a short period of time.

Therefore, when he saw Tian Chong, Tian Qiu was excited and excited for a long time. He held him and talked for an hour before he finally let go of his inner excitement.

"Oh, I didn't expect you to be so defiant as to break through to Earth Supreme in just one trip. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have allowed you to run for the Holy Son. It would be great to directly inherit our twelve branches... "

Inherited twelve branches, and then the heavenly veins... In Tianqiu's heart, being a saint son is not as satisfying as becoming the master of a bloodline, and the four main heavenly veins have probably eleven resources in their hands. The Son of God combined cannot compare.

Although the current leader of Tianmai is still Tian Jue, Tian Qiu knows very well that with the strength of the other party, he will soon be able to break through to the Great Perfection. When the time comes, Tian Jue will choose to join the group of elders in the clan, and then the master of Tianmai will It is very likely that it will fall on the head of the sky insect.

After all, with the current cultivation speed of Tianchong, it will definitely not be difficult to break through to the supreme level by then...

Tianchong just smiled after hearing this and did not tell the clan leader's promise to him before.

"I came here this time to ask for your help, Lord Vein. I want to know what small and medium-sized branches are around my Yunxiao Mountain Range, and which ones have development potential..."

Hearing Tian Chong's request, Tian Qiu's eyes suddenly lit up and he chuckled: "Why, it seems that you are planning to attack the surrounding area? I knew it when the ancestor of Wan Chong came over before, you brat He will definitely not stay peacefully in his Yunxiao Mountains..."

"Originally, I thought that I could help you, but now it seems that there is no need. As long as I know the news that you have broken through the Earth Supreme, I believe that the small and medium-sized branches around you will definitely take the initiative as long as they are not stupid. Door-to-door…”

Tian Chong nodded, he could naturally think of this.

"But before that, I still need to cultivate some of my own confidants. Otherwise, even if those regions have come over, I don't even have the manpower to manage them. Wouldn't I let them take advantage in vain?"

The most important thing is that the details of the two veins of the Golden Stone Domain are under the instructions of others. It is definitely not possible for them to take the initiative to vote, so they still have to take action.

Hearing this, Tian Qiu also agreed with this statement. Soon, he took out a spiritual power scroll and said: "Here is a record of the distribution of forces around the Yunxiao Mountains that I have investigated before. Take it and see if it is useful. .”

Tian Chong's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw this. He didn't expect Tian Qiu to be so careful and had already prepared everything he needed. "Thank you!"

It can be seen from this that Tian Qiu really cares about him, so Tian Chong is still very grateful.

Hearing this, Tianqiu waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's too disrespectful for you and me to say thank you. Besides, you left from the Twelve Branches. The stronger you are, the greater the benefit to us."

After chatting with Tianqiu again, Tianchong said goodbye and left.

After returning to his own Qilin Cliff Holy Palace in the Yunxiao Mountains, Tianchong opened the scroll, and then penetrated it with his spiritual sense and read the information inside.

There is not much information in the scroll, but the descriptions of the major forces and powerful men in the surrounding areas are very detailed.

In the three areas close to the Yunxiao Mountains, in addition to the two medium-sized branches of the Golden Vein and the Stone Vein, there are also the Wood Spirit Line, the Juli Line and the Ancient Insect Line.

Each of these branches has its own characteristics. For example, the Juli branch mainly cultivates ant-type spiritual insects.

Although ant spirit insects have always been in the middle and low-level positions among the Zerg tribe, they have a shape-to-power ratio unmatched by other spirit insects. In other words, of the same size, ant spirit insects have the largest weapon. Yes, the defense is also very good.

It is precisely based on this that the people of Juli's lineage fuse the ant spirit insects with themselves, making each of them extremely powerful and with amazing defense. They can be regarded as members of the melee sect within the spirit insect tribe.

But such shortcomings are also very obvious, so even at their most powerful stage at this time, they are only hovering at the medium branch level.

Another very distinctive one is the ancient insect lineage. As the name suggests, they are all people who study spiritual insects from ancient times.

For this group of people, those artificially cultivated spiritual insect races that appeared after ancient times, such as dragon centipedes, swallowtail butterflies, etc., cannot be called Zerg at all. They are all heretics and a shame to the Zerg!

And they reject all new races of spiritual insects and devote their lives to discovering and cultivating pure ancient spiritual insects...

Although this idea is good, there were too many types of spiritual insects that were exterminated in the world-destroying war, and many ancient spiritual insects were also eliminated in the torrent of the times because they could not compete with the new races for living space. .

This also led to the fact that although the people of the ancient insect lineage had a very long inheritance, their strength and number have never been able to increase. In the past thousand years, they have even declined a lot, and they have directly reduced from a large branch lineage to a medium-sized branch lineage.

But even so, they still insist that maybe some time in the future, their group of people will really disappear from the spirit insect tribe...

"However, such people are actually easy to conquer..."

Tianchong believes that as long as he can provide the other party with hope of survival, then they will follow him without hesitation and become the most loyal believers.

Of course, the only difficulty is how to make them believe in themselves...

"Hey, it seems like I have an ancient spiritual insect in my hand."

Tianchong thought of the nine-turn black-whiskered mosquito in his hand that he had ignored for all these years. This thing was a spiritual insect from ancient times. Nowadays, it is very rare even in the insect world. It is estimated that it can attract the attention of those "archaeologists". scientists' interest.

Of course, ancient and powerful spiritual insects such as the ancient clover and the ancient nine-headed insect have all died, and even their corpses and essence have been used up.

The Ancient Sword Butterfly can also do it, but his sword is fused with the Phoenix bloodline. This is the most disgusting thing for the Ancient Insect lineage, and it must not be said.

"Perhaps when I have the opportunity to meet the Ancestral Insect King, I can get some powerful ancient spiritual insects from the old man's hands."

"How about just putting some lava rock beetles on top..."

Although this thing is also an ancient species, there are a lot of them in the world, so its value and appeal are naturally not high.

Putting aside the matter of the ancient insect lineage, Tianchong looked at the information of the small branch lines again. Soon, he was attracted by one branch lineage.

"War puppet?" Tianchong raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"I have met people from the Demon Puppet lineage before, but the Demon Puppet lineage is a large-scale branch line with strong strength, but this War Puppet lineage is only a small branch lineage?"

This lineage of war puppets is very interesting. It should be that a group of spirit insect tribesmen who have studied war formation masters have actually found a new way to create a humanoid war puppet with spirit insects as the main body.

The most important thing is that these war puppets can gather and release fighting spirit. Just like the puppet army in Muchen's hands, they can also be used to set up battle formations.

Moreover, people from this lineage of war puppets are very talented in fighting spirit, and several of them have reached the level of war formation masters. Although this is due to the combination of their natal spiritual insects, they are also very strong.

It is a pity that the war puppet army that can be produced by the war puppet line now only has one kind of green armored mantis. Because it is just an ordinary heaven-level spiritual insect, it cannot bring out the full potential of the war puppet lineage. Strong combat power, which has caused their strength to never increase.

For so many years, the Zhan Puppet lineage has been trying to find some powerful spirit insect tribes that can replace the Green Armored Mantis, but they have failed. This has also resulted in them being able to only hang around at the bottom of the spirit insect tribe, unable to attract the attention of those big shots. focus on.

"This is a good helper. If we can conquer them, I will have the guards of the Holy Palace..."

A powerful escort led by a battle formation master is enough to help the Celestial Chong suppress several surrounding areas, so among so many branches, this war puppet line is the most urgently needed for the Celestial Chong.

"Are spiritual insects suitable as war puppets? Maybe I can really help them solve this problem..."

A slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Tian Chong finally chose his target. Then he would first conquer this lineage of war puppets and let them help him form a strong enough army.

As for the test of the Golden Stone Domain, the Ancestor of the Ten Thousand Insects is already stationed at the border of the Yunxiao Mountains anyway, and the other party won't be able to cause anything extraordinary in a short period of time, so let's wait until everything is ready before dealing with them...
