Overlord: Insect Eater

Chapter 237 Mr. Long’s identity

After conquering the war puppet clan, the Celestial Insects temporarily ceased their activities for a while.

Of course, this does not mean that Tian Chong doesn't care about anything, because he directly gave Zhan Puppet Li the swarm of insects on the first floor of his Nine Worlds Tower that almost chewed Tian Chong and Xuexuan into bones.

The Demon Devouring Insect, which is also an ancient species of spirit insect, has all its abilities in its huge mouth and indestructible teeth.

The carapace of these devil-devouring insects is extremely hard. When they are in groups, even the ninth-grade supreme beings will have a headache if they are targeted by them.

And the most important thing is that this kind of spirit insect has a very peculiar characteristic, which is information sharing!
These demon-eating insects can transmit information that any one of them comes into contact with without any obstacles. Finally, the queen who controls the insect swarm will issue unified orders and then act as a whole.

This characteristic makes these demon-eating insects very suitable for being refined into war puppets, and easier to control. For the war puppet lineage, they are simply a dream love insect!

When the Heavenly Insect took out the Demonic Devouring Insect, Zhan Puppet was completely attracted in an instant. Especially when he knew that the strength of these spiritual insects was comparable to the supreme beings of level [-] or above, Zhan Puppet was even more attracted. Li was extremely excited.

"Lord Holy Son, how many are there of these demon-eating insects? Are there ten thousand of them? If there are ten thousand, then I can directly create a war puppet army of ten thousand, which is enough to serve as the guard of the Holy Palace. !”

Tian Chong was silent for a moment...

Ten thousand heads?Are the requirements so low?

After thinking about the indescribable army of demon-eating insects in his Nine Worlds Tower, Tian Chong didn't know how to answer for a while.

Unexpectedly, when he saw the Heavenly Insect Silence, Zhan Puppet Li thought that the number of these Demonic Devouring Insects was very rare, so he quickly said: "Actually, five thousand is enough. Only five thousand of these Demonic Devouring Insects are enough to rival me." I have one hundred thousand green-armored mantis troops in my hands."

Although he felt a little regretful, Zhan Puppet Li also understood that it was really rare for spiritual insects like Demonic Devouring Insects to live in large groups and were suitable for making war puppets, otherwise their lineage would not have been around for hundreds of years. The Qingjia Mantis Army is a kind of army of war puppets.

When Tian Chong heard this, he chuckled helplessly. It seemed that he was overthinking it. With Zhan Puppet Li's vision, he naturally did not expect that such precious spiritual insects, which he considered very rare, would be overrun in his own hands. Disaster.

"Okay, Zhan Puppet, you have misunderstood. I have more of these spiritual insects. I will give you [-] of them to study carefully, and try to make Zhan Puppet as soon as possible."

"Ten...one hundred thousand?!" Zhan Pupuli's eyes widened and he almost twitched away in excitement.

"I have never been so rich in my life!"

Of course, I dare not say the last sentence.

Zhan Puppet Li who got the spirit insect burst out with great enthusiasm, or in other words, all the Zhan Puppet masters who followed Zhan Puppet Li to the Holy Palace were very excited.

If such a powerful one hundred thousand war puppets could be produced, then their war puppet lineage would be enough to squeeze into the threshold of the medium-sized branch lineage.

Even if it is not so important for today's war puppet lineage, whether it is a medium-sized branch lineage, but this kind of thing that has been pursued for countless years is still a bit obsessed in the heart.

Tian Chong didn't care about this. After throwing the spirit worm directly to Zhan Puppet Li, Tian Chong was ready to return to the twelve branches of Tianmai again.

Because, there, the opportunity to have the ancient dragon centipede has not yet been obtained...

Outside the gate of the Twelve Branches Sutra Library, looking at the carved brass-colored dragon-shaped creature above, Tianchong smiled softly and said: "Master Long, it's time to get up..."

"Haha~~, which little bastard came to disturb Mr. Long and my rest again..."

After a big yawn, he saw the dragon-shaped creature carved on the door slide quickly, then swam down from the door and looked at the sky insect.

"Hey, it's your boy, come back..."

Before Master Long, who was still lazy at first, suddenly felt the difference in the young man standing in front of him at this moment, the whole dragon was suffocated.

"You...have you broken through to the Earth Supreme?"

Tian Chong chuckled and nodded.

It was obvious that Master Long was still in disbelief. He scratched his bronze forehead with his small melon seeds, and sparks flew out for a moment.

"It seems that Lord Long, I am really getting older and my brain is no longer functioning properly. Could it be that I have been sleeping for decades?"

Tian Chong was speechless.

"Long Ye, you read that right. I have indeed broken through to the Earth Supreme level, so I'm here to find you..."

After hearing the affirmation of the young man in front of him again, Mr. Long finally confirmed one thing, that is, the young man in front of him was really the young boy who came to be separated from him.

I just didn't expect that in just two years, this little guy would really break through to the Earth Supreme realm, which is really shocking.

"Good boy, it seems that I have underestimated you. Where is your ancient dragon centipede? Has it been promoted to the Insect King?"

Tian Chong shook his head. Is it so easy to be promoted to the Insect King?

Of course, even if he has not been promoted to Insect King, the ancient Sky Dragon Centipede who has been in the Nine Realms Tower these years has grown tremendously, both in terms of bloodline and strength.

"It's fine if you don't have it, it's fine if you don't have it. I'm afraid you won't listen to Mr. Long and I will directly promote that junior Long Centipe..."

Lord Long's reaction made Tian Chong puzzled. Could there be any problems with promotion?

After a moment of silence, Master Long suddenly asked: "Boy Celestial Insect, have you ever heard of the name Ancient Demonic Dragon Centipede?"

Tian Chong was surprised. This name was indeed familiar to him. He must have seen it in the ancient books of the clan. Could it be that Lord Long's true form is this ancient demonic dragon centipede?
Lord Long did not mean to wait for the Celestial Insect to answer, but continued directly: "Strictly speaking, the Dragon Centipede clan is not a subsidiary race of the Dragon clan like other dragon-type spiritual insects and spiritual beasts..."

"Once upon a time in the ancient wilderness, there were countless powerful orcs in the world. The strongest among them was called Dragon Ancestor, and he was also the ancestor of the current Dragon Clan. Many people know this, but what no one knows is that, in fact, the Dragon Clan It’s just one of the descendants left by the Dragon Clan, but it’s definitely not all of them!”

Tian Chong's heart stirred, and he looked at Master Long in surprise, as if he had thought of what he was going to say next.

"There are nine descendants of the Dragon Ancestor, of which the Dragon Clan in the present world is just one of them. The remaining eight are all different, and the Dragon Centipede Clan is just one of the other eight!"

Tian Chong frowned and said: "Then why is the Dragon Centipede clan reduced to this situation now?" Let alone compared with the entire Dragon Clan, even a small branch of the Dragon Clan is much stronger than the entire Dragon Centipede clan. many.

"Haha, are you a little confused? It's actually very simple, because the Dragon Centipede clan has been extinct since ancient times... In other words, except for the Dragon clan, eight of the nine sons left by the Dragon Ancestor have become extinct."

Skyworm: "..."

Very interesting, then what does this Heavenly Dragon Centipede mean to me?
Perhaps seeing the meaning of Tian Chong, Long Ye said lightly: "Today's Dragon Centipedes are just a new clan born from the blood of the Spirit Centipede clan and the Dragon clan. Although they have the name of Dragon Centipede, they are not the same as the ancient Dragon Centipede." It doesn’t matter anymore.”

"Then Lord Long, you..." Tian Chong couldn't help blurting out.

"Haha, that's right. I was the last ancient dragon centipede back then. Unfortunately, now I only have a trace of my true spirit left to live in this Scripture Pavilion. I am no longer considered a real life."

Tian Chong was silent for a moment, letting the waves in his heart calm down. He didn't expect that the mysterious Dragon Lord he met by chance had such a terrifying identity.

So why does the other party want to cultivate his own ancient dragon centipede? Could it be that he wants to continue the ancient dragon centipede clan?

Although today's dragon centipede and the ancient dragon centipede are already two completely different races, the dragon bloodline awakened in the ancient dragon centipe's body is the authentic dragon bloodline, and the ancient dragon centipe and the dragon race strictly speaking have the same source. , so this approach is not impossible to achieve.

But whether it can succeed or not, to be honest, Tianchong is not very optimistic.

But, it doesn’t hurt to give it a try…

"Boy Celestial Insect, let your junior Dragon Centipede follow me. If it succeeds, its strength may not be weaker than your greedy little thing in the future..."

Greedy little thing...

It took a long time for Tianchong to realize that he was probably talking about Jin Chan, right?
Jin Chan, as the person involved, also figured this out, and immediately shouted in Tian Chong's mind unhappily: "This old guy dares to look down on Uncle Jin Chan, Tian Chong, don't stop me, Uncle Jin Chan must let this old guy You know how powerful I am!"

Tianchong looked at this "sharp-looking" Jin Chan speechlessly, and said calmly: "I'm not stopping you..."

Jin Chan: "..."

Tianchong: "By the way, do you know anything about the so-called Dragon Ancestor?"

Jin Chan hesitated for a moment, then said: "There is indeed some information about the Dragon Ancestor in my inherited memory, but not much, and it is all intermittent..."

"Strictly speaking, this dragon ancestor should be the same ancient ferocious beast as the first six-winged golden cicada..."

"Ferocious beast?" Tian Chong frowned, a little confused about this title.

After all, the dragons are all divine beasts or super divine beasts, so how could the dragon ancestor from which they originated be a ferocious beast?Moreover, in today's world, those who can be called ferocious beasts are often powerful but have no intelligence and only know how to be cruel and murderous. No matter how you look at it, the dragon should not be called that. Ancestor?
Jin Chan gave an explanation for the sky bug's doubts: "You are overthinking. The ferocious beasts and ferocious insects in ancient times are not the same thing as the mentally retarded people in the world today..."

"The ancient evil beasts or evil insects are all aimed at the vast world. Just like our lineage of six-winged golden cicadas, the main way of growth is strictly speaking, by devouring all forms of energy in the vast world. This is for Isn’t it the most ‘ferocious’ existence in the entire world?”

Tianchong suddenly understood after hearing this.

"It turns out he is such a fierce person..."

It's no wonder that all the powerful beings that existed in the ancient times fell one by one, or even became extinct. If not, there would probably be no such world as it is today.

From this point of view, the six-winged golden cicada is relatively lucky, and the inheritance has not been interrupted, although the end of each generation is not very good...

As for the Dragon Ancestor, of the nine heirs left behind, only one Dragon Clan was left in the end. Even though this Dragon Ancestor was still tyrannical, he had to undergo changes and adapt to the new rules of the world before he could survive.

After a brief exchange with Jin Chan, Tian Chong finally understood some of the secrets of the ancient times.

Then when he looked at Master Long who had been waiting quietly, Tian Chong nodded without hesitation and said: "Master Long can take Tian Long Centi away. If there is anything that can be used by this junior, you can always do it." Feel free to speak!"

"Forget it..." Mr. Long said directly, showing resistance. "I finally left some good things behind, and I want to try to see if my dragon centipede clan can reappear in the world. The teacher asked you to bring in that greedy little thing. Isn't that inviting a wolf into the house?"

Well, obviously, Lord Long is very afraid of Jin Chan and doesn't dare to let Tian Chong know his background.

In this regard, Tianchong could not force it, and in the end he could only hand over the ancient dragon centipede to the other party. Then Tianchong himself returned to his holy palace and began to prepare for retreat.

He came back this time not to scheming and competing for territory with those around him. For the ancient holy abyss that would be opened in less than three years, he had to improve his cultivation.

Deep in the Yunxiao Mountains, next to a spiritual spring, a black tower more than ten meters tall is located. The surrounding rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth is absorbed by the black tower at a terrifying speed. Around the black tower, a huge phantom appears in the spiritual mist. Looming in the middle, occasionally, there are nine ferocious heads twisting and turning like giant pythons.

The seventh floor of the Nine Realms Tower.

After the Celestial Insects continued to extract the Spiritual Liquid, almost all of the Earthly Supreme Spiritual Treasure located on the seventh floor had been extracted.

But at this time, Tianchong had no intention of using the seventh-level spiritual liquid here. Instead, he took out the perfect spiritual liquid that he had obtained from the spiritual treasure trove of the master of the second palace in the north.

Golden light bloomed, and a golden stream of light flowed out from an ordinary-looking clay pot.

In the golden light, the golden light condensed to form a golden embryo about the size of a palm. The embryo was covered with extremely ancient lines, and it jumped slightly, like a living thing.

This is the perfect spiritual liquid, and it was condensed from the spiritual treasure of a half-step heavenly supreme master like the second hall master. Its value far exceeds what Tianchong got from the seventh level. .

"It's time to break through..."

After speaking softly, Tianchong took a deep breath, opened his mouth slightly, and swallowed the golden Yuan Fei-like spiritual liquid, and then golden light bloomed, drowning his body.

The next step is to wait, and as time goes by, the spiritual pressure around the celestial insect becomes stronger and stronger, and the golden light continues to expand, and finally it will even encompass the entire seventh layer of space.

　Autumn harvest, farming... I have been busy with these for more than half a month. I have never taken care of more than ten acres of land at home in the past years, but without my father, I suddenly found that farming is such a tiring thing... Tonight I Let's see if I can make up for yesterday's...
