Overlord: Insect Eater

Chapter 35 Insect Realm
In Feiling City, in the flower hall in the back garden of the City Lord's Mansion, Tian Chong and Tian Fu sat facing each other.

"Miss Tianfu, I don't know what you said before, what do you mean?"

Tian Chong poured a cup of tea for the other party with his own hands, and asked in a deep voice.

Tianfu didn't answer directly, but looked straight at Tianchong's face for a long time, and then said: "Before I say this, I need to confirm one thing, your name is Tianchong, and your father's name is Tianchong ( qú), is it?"

Tian Chong frowned, a little surprised that the other party even knew his own life experience.

"Not bad! But, how do you know this?"

Seeing Tian Chong's confession, Tian Fu's expression softened slightly, a smile appeared on his face, and he said, "That's good. The reason I know this is because I, like your father, come from the No. 12 branch of the main surname." , and your father was the inspector of Flying Spirit City before me!"

The main surname of the twelve branches?The inspector of Feiling City?

These names are very strange in Tian Chong's memory. I don't know if the original person doesn't know it, or the memory he inherited is incomplete.

Seeing the doubtful look on Tian Chong's face, Tian Fu was also slightly taken aback, as if he didn't expect the other party to have doubts about his words.

Moreover, if the information I read at the beginning is not wrong, Tian Chong is probably over 30 years old, at least about the same age as me, but the person in front of me now looks like a boy of seventeen or eighteen... …

If the other party hadn't personally admitted that her father's name was Tianzhu, she would not have dared to confirm the other party's identity.

"I don't know what happened to you to make you so young, and I don't want to know. But as long as you admit that your name is Tian Chong, the son of Tian Chong, and you have lived in Feiling City since childhood, then what I just said is absolutely true. Can't go wrong."

Tian Chong nodded slightly, pondered for a while, and asked: "Some adventures have indeed happened to me. Although I have reshaped my body, my memory is somewhat incomplete. But these are all things in the past. Now, I'm very interested in the Twelve Branches and Supervisors you mentioned, if you don't mind, Miss Tianfu, you can explain it in detail."

Tian Fu nodded, wondering what kind of opportunity this guy had encountered to reshape his body. If he could also encounter such a good thing, how could he be sent to such a remote place by the clan? small place!

"We Spirit Zerg have four main veins, and the most powerful of each main vein is the person with the main surname. Our Tianmai main surname is divided into twelve branches, each of which has millions of main surnames, and you and I It comes from the last of the twelve, which is No.12."

"As for the supervisor, it is a means of monitoring the forces under each branch's command."

"For example, Feiling City belongs to our twelve tribes, and I am the inspector from the twelve tribes."

"The duty of our inspectors is actually very simple. We just need to keep an eye on the Supreme Spiritual Liquid that Flying Spirit City pays to the higher authorities every year. We don't care about anything else, even big things like the replacement of the city lord."

"Anyway, no matter who is in charge, as long as he can guarantee that he will hand in a lot of Supreme Spiritual Liquid every year, then the superior will not care..."

Tian Chong suddenly nodded, so the so-called supervisor is still a leisurely job.

I just don't know if I can use my power for personal gain to make some extra money for myself...

"Then if the inspector died, wouldn't the higher-ups not pursue it?" Skyworm asked again.

After hearing Tian Chong's question, Tian Fu immediately thought that this was probably because the other party wanted to inquire about the disappearance of his parents.

In this regard, there is no need for Tian Fu to hide it, and he can sell the other party a favor, so why not do it?

"Naturally, it is impossible to ignore it!"

"After your father disappeared, the higher-ups sent many people to investigate, but in the end they returned empty-handed. I just knew that your parents' disappearance seemed to be related to the previous city lord, but before the investigation found any useful news, The city lord is also dead..."

Tianchong raised his brows, recalling some of the original body's previous memories, and combined with what Tianfu said, he immediately felt that the disappearance of the original body's parents might not have been such a simple matter.

However, since there was nothing to be gained by even sending people to investigate at the beginning, now that decades have passed, I am afraid that it is impossible for me to continue to investigate, so this matter is likely to still be regarded as a deadlock. The koan has been maintained like this.

"Okay, I also understand the matter. But before you said that sitting on the position of the city lord is good for me, I don't know what to explain?" Tian Chong put these things aside for a while and asked again.

"Because only if you sit on the flying spirit city master, we will have the opportunity to meet the flying newt domain's domain master at the flying newt domain alliance meeting three months later!" Tianzhu said seriously with a pretty face .

"Flying Newt Domain Alliance? See the domain master?"

Tian Chong frowned even deeper.

"Flying newt domain master Tianxun is the son of the elders of the twelve branches, and it is said that he is a powerhouse of the seventh-rank supreme level. Only through him can you really get in touch with the real strongmen of the twelve branches."

Tian Chong's eyes lit up, isn't this the opportunity he wanted?
Seeing his expression, the corner of Tianzhu's mouth curled up into a smile, and continued: "After half a year, the opening time of the insect world every three years will come.

This time, our twelve teams have a total of ten places, all of which are selected from among the talents of the younger generation.There are no more than five of the younger generation of our twelve branches who can reach the supreme cultivation level, and for the remaining five places, there is a high probability that some people who are below the supreme realm will be selected.

I think with your current fighting strength, you should still have a good chance of competing for the last five spots..."

"Explore the insect world?!" Tian Chong's heart was shocked, and the whole person became a little excited in an instant.

You know, this insect world is the biggest treasure of the spirit insect race!

There are countless treasures that the spirit insect masters covet, a large number of powerful relics, and various ancient spirit insects that have become extinct in the outside world. Each of these is of great help to the spirit insect masters.

"What are the strengths of our twelve most promising younger generations?" Tian Chong couldn't help asking.

Tianfu smiled wryly and shook his head.

"I don't know that, but I heard that it is called the first day of our twelve branches. It is a person called Tian Centipede. He is not yet 30 years old, but he is already a third-rank supreme powerhouse, and he has several powerful ones in his hands." The Supreme Spirit Insect, and even the Supreme God Insect, in terms of real combat power, I am afraid that it is much stronger than the previous city lord Migratory Locust!"

As soon as this remark came out, Tian Chong immediately became serious.

The strength of a spirit insect master is not only based on his cultivation, it can be said that more than half of the combat effectiveness of a spirit insect master depends on the spirit insects he controls!
"Several powerful Supreme Spirit Insects, and even Supreme God Insects..." Tian Chong murmured.

The so-called Supreme Spirit Insect and Supreme God Insect, although the difference is only one letter, but the difference between the two is worlds of difference!
The difference is like a spirit beast and a divine beast...

Supreme spirit insects refer to spirit-level bloodline insects whose strength has reached the supreme level, such as the nine-turn black-bearded mosquitoes of the heavenly insects. Although they are called heaven-level spirit insects, their bloodlines are still at the level of spirit beasts. Not a mythical beast!

As for the specific gap between the two, in fact, look at the little cultivator of Tian Chong, a three-day-level monk, relying on the supreme god insect like the ancient sword butterfly, directly pairing the supreme powerhouse like the octopus with the supreme spirit insect. You can see it in seconds.

Now the only self-confidence that today's worm has is that he has such a powerful supreme god worm to back him up, but with such a trump card, when facing those talented children who are carefully cultivated by the master, he instantly becomes without an advantage.

Seeing that Tian Chong's face became gloomy at a speed visible to the naked eye, Tian Fu also comforted him.

"Actually, you don't have to worry too much, after all, there are still a few supreme god insects.

And you also have such powerful gods and insects as the ancient sword butterfly, even if you can't compare with the strongest ones, you still have a chance to compete for the ninth and tenth, so you can also get the qualification to explore the insect world..."

Tian Chong nodded silently, agreeing with the other party's words.

But he is very clear that things are definitely not as simple as Tianfu said. If he wants to obtain the qualification to explore the insect world, he must at least upgrade his cultivation to the supreme trilemma...

What's more, at least one more supreme-level spirit insect is required!

As far as spiritual strength is concerned, Tian Chong is not worried. After all, he still has the little trick of Jinyuan Tiancan that can swallow the Supreme Spiritual Liquid. Half a year is enough for him to break through.

The key is that the spirit insects are more difficult to solve...

Don't look at the nine-turn black-bearded mosquito in Ye Chen's hands is very perverted, and can even directly devour the flesh and blood of other sky-level spirit insects, but its highest level is just as difficult as that of a god, and it needs special training to break through the supreme method to assist.

But Tian Chong doesn't have such a secret method in his hands!
"It seems that if you want to increase your chances of winning, you really need someone to support you..." Tian Chong muttered inwardly.

The reason why Tianzhu recommended himself to connect with Tianxun and Tianxie father and son is also because this time Elder Tianxie does not have any talented children who can be handed out, which will invisibly affect his influence in the Twelve Branches .

And the appearance of Tian Chong can just make up for all of this, and it is a win-win result for both parties, and the elder Tiansting will definitely not refuse.

In other words, the so-called Lord of the Flying Spirit City is nothing more than a pedal for the worm, and if he jumped onto the high platform with the help of this pedal, then the pedal is useless.

At that time, if Tianchong can really become a young genius in the twelve branches of the main surname, then he will naturally stay in the clan and be vigorously cultivated, so why would he be allowed to be a city lord in such a remote place!
As for Tianxue, because of the credit for this recommendation, she might be left in the Flyingxolotl domain by the domain master Tianxun, and she will be able to escape from this sea of ​​suffering...

"Three months, I can just take advantage of this time to see if I can raise my cultivation level to the Heaven-reaching Realm, otherwise I won't be able to see that domain master at that time, and he might not be able to see me in high regard!"

To this, Tian Fu also agrees very much.

"You don't have to worry about the affairs of Flying Spirit City at all. Just let anyone manage it for you. The main thing is the resources of Flying Spirit City. Now that you, as the city lord, can use them at will, you can just use them to practice!"

What Tianfu said reached Tianchong's heart.

In the following time, Tian Chong directly became a hand-off shopkeeper, and all affairs of Feiling City were handed over to the leader of Lingdie to manage, and even boldly delegated power to them.

Anyway, there is no big power in the entire Feiling City now, and those who do not have the supreme level of combat power do not even have the qualifications to compete, so even if Tian Chong, the city lord, is nowhere to be seen when he just took office, no one dares to jump out and give birth. thing.

At this time, the Heavenly Insects were holding various resources they had searched, and threw all of them to the golden cicada in the light cocoon, and then the energy swallowed and transformed by the golden cicada, they divided the accounts one by one, one by one, and started their own practice. .

Breaking through the Heaven-reaching Realm in three months is actually nothing to a true genius.

Didn't Mu Chen in the original work break through from the Heaven Transformation Realm to the Heaven Reaching Realm in just one month?

Although there is a powerful spiritual array in the middle, Tian Chong also has Jin Chan, a small cheat that can supply perfect spiritual power infinitely, so there is no difference between the two.

It's just that the path of the truly strong is full of thorns and tribulations, and only those who can walk through it step by step in the end can obtain the final tempering.

On the road of cultivation, oneself is king!
It is a bit astray to use the spiritual power devoured and refined by the golden cicada like Tian Chong to cultivate.

This may allow his strength to skyrocket in the short term, but in the long run, this is a disadvantage, and will become a demon on the path of Heavenly Worm to a real strong man.

Of course, no one can remind Tian Chong at such a time, he can only comprehend everything by himself.If he can wake up naturally, then this experience will also be a great improvement for his state of mind.

The time has lasted for a month under such circumstances, and the spiritual power in Tian Chong's body has become stronger and stronger, faintly reaching the limit of the Heaven Transformation Realm.

Tian Chong feels that he only needs to take one more step to break through to the Heaven-reaching Realm, but every time he wants to take this step, he always feels that there is something inexplicable blocking him.

This made the Heavenly Insect in cultivation frown.

Now there are two paths in front of him, one is to directly break through this obstacle by relying on powerful aura.

With a steady supply of golden cicadas, he is very confident that he can do this.

As for the second way, it is to suspend your own improvement first, spend some time to sort out yourself, and find the reason that imperceptibly blocks you.

For a person who has fallen into the pleasure of cultivation and improvement, the second choice seems not easy, because the process of continuous improvement and becoming stronger is very addictive and unable to extricate oneself.

In the end, Tian Chong still restrained his desire, and abruptly cut off this state of continuous improvement, allowing the body caught in the desire to become stronger to have a moment of respite.
