Overlord: Insect Eater

Chapter 8

A few days later, Mu Chen knocked on the gate of Tian Chong's small courtyard.

"Beiling Academy, I didn't expect you, Mu Chen, to be a student of the Academy, so are you planning to go to the Fifth Academy next?"

Hearing that Mu Chen actually came to say goodbye to him, Tian Chong said with a look of surprise on his face.

"Yeah, counting the time, I'm afraid the quota for the Fifth Great Court will be released, but I don't know how many places our Beiling College will get this time."

Mu Chen looked at Hongxia in the sky with his dark eyes, and a slender and soft shadow was reflected in the depths of his eyes. She had long silver hair like the Milky Way and clear eyes like glass. The little face is often full of indifference, but he knows how soft it is under that indifference.

Also as a man, Tian Chong saw what this guy was thinking at a glance, immediately clicked his tongue twice, shook his head and said: "Little brother Mu Chen, you don't look like you are worried about the number of places in the Fifth Great Court, but you seem to be thinking about a people……"

Tian Chong's words directly drove Mu Chen out of his memory, and then he looked at the other party in surprise, and when he saw the narrow eyes, he couldn't help but blush slightly.

After all, he is only a teenager in his teens, and he will inevitably feel a little shy when someone sees through his mind suddenly.

"Brother Tianchong, don't make fun of me..."

Tian Chong took a playful look at this guy, and said with a light smile, "There's nothing to be ashamed of, it's just human nature. It's just that you can't forget it so much, I'm a little curious about what kind of girl it is... ..."

"No, I'm not obsessed with it..." Mu Chen's voice lacked confidence.

Tian Chong raised his hand and patted Mu Chen's shoulder, and said meaningfully: "Little brother Mu Chen, I am optimistic that you will not be ordinary in the future, maybe you will have a place in this great world in the future, so, practice hard..."

Seeing Tian Chong who had turned and left, Mu Chen was stunned for a moment.

He couldn't understand, why Tian Chong seemed more confident than himself that he would become a strong man in the future?Could it be that he saw something that he didn't know?

Suddenly, Mu Chen thought of the Great Buddha Art left by his mother. From all signs, his mother's identity must not be simple, maybe it really came from a certain powerful force in the Great Thousand World people...

And this day, could the worm see some characteristics of the spiritual power he cultivated?

He wanted to continue to ask something, but he didn't know how to open his mouth. For a moment, Mu Chen felt his heart was in a mess.

A long time passed like this, Mu Chen looked at Tian Chong who had already entered the room, let out a long breath with a complicated complexion, and couldn't understand why he fell into chaos just because of the other party's words.

Maybe the other party really saw something, but from the looks of it, he probably wouldn't talk too much to him, so why should he bother himself?
In the final analysis, this world is still respected by strength, as long as one has enough strength, one day all the mysteries will be solved!
With such a determined heart, Muchen left the small courtyard where Tianchong lived, bid farewell to Mufeng early the next morning, and then rushed to Beiling City from Mucheng's teleportation spirit array, and then went straight to Beilingyuan. go.

……

……

Tian Chong stayed in Muyu for another five days. During this period, Mu Feng finally gathered all the materials he needed, and he made two low-level spirit insect sacs, plus the spirit insects configured during this time There is also an insect net specially used to catch spirit insects. Although the grade is a bit low, his preparations can be considered preliminary.

Everything was ready, so Tian Chong also felt that it was time to set off.

The Black Nether Abyss is still very dangerous, and although the location of the Nine Nether Birds is in the depths of the Black Nether Abyss, it is not the core area. If you want to search for the trace of the golden source silkworm, it means that the celestial insects have to continue to go deep go down.

At that time, it is impossible to say that they will encounter existences more terrifying than high-level spirit beasts. Tian Chong has already made psychological preparations.

The next day, Tian Chong bid farewell to Mu Feng early, and then put all his things into the mustard bracelet, with two spiritual insect sacs hanging on one side of his waist, and his own insect flute on the other side, facing towards the city of Mu. Go to the beehive twenty miles away.

After these days of my own nurturing, I think the number of this devouring bee colony should have recovered by [-]% to [-]%.

And this time, Heavenly Insect specially prepared an evolutionary liquid specially used to catalyze the evolution of the spirit-eating bees, and he also planned to test this group of spirit-eating bees.

Arriving at the mountain where the beehives were located, the first thing Tian Chong saw was the dense layer of dark clouds in the sky. The entire huge mountain range was silent at this moment, not even the chirping of insects and birds, and it was filled with a breath of death.

Seeing this, Tian Chong couldn't help but frowned. It seemed that he didn't have his own control. Even if he ordered these spirit devouring bees not to kill wantonly, the mountain still suffered disaster within its radius.

In fact, Tian Chong walked all the way, and there were few people on the road next to it, so he was obviously frightened by the dark cloud-like bee swarm in the sky.

Let's just say that a spirit insect master must never lose his spirit insect sac... Otherwise, you will not even be able to enter the human city, because before you get close, people will come to chase you away.

It seems that the few days I stayed here also caused a lot of trouble for Mu Feng.But this is the Muyu domain, and the domain owner Mu Feng has the final say on everything, so even if there is trouble, it will have no effect on it, at worst, just issue an announcement.

Of course, if Tian Chong left on his own initiative, then Mu Feng would probably be very happy in his heart.

He took out his spirit insect flute and put it near his mouth. With the melodious sound of the flute, the dark clouds in the sky began to change, and then turned into a spiral storm, rushing towards the sky insect from the sky.

Tian Chong looked at this scene calmly, and when the spirit devouring bee storm approached him, a spirit insect sac flew out of his waist under the control of spiritual power, and then opened automatically...

Just like a pool with the water outlet opened, the water in the full pool swirls and rushes into the water outlet.

And the spirit devouring bee swarm in the sky was also sucked into the spirit insect sac while spinning.

In the end, the tens of thousands of spirit-eating bee swarms all entered the palm-sized spirit insect sac...

The celestial insect's consciousness entered into the spirit insect sac, and then saw that the dense bee colony was staying in a gray chaotic space at this time, and they all fell into dormancy.

And because of the sufficient aura in this space, not only will these spirit-eating bees not die here, but they will accelerate their growth during dormancy. This is the peculiarity of the spirit sac!
The effect looks similar to mustard seed bracelets, Qiankun bracelets, etc., but the advantage is that the spirit insect sacs can store living things. Although the two spirit insect sacs in the hands of today's insects are only elementary and can only hold specific types of spirit insects, outsiders It is definitely a rare treasure.

It's a pity that this is a unique method of the Spirit Zerg, and others cannot learn it!
After collecting all the spirit-eating bees, Tian Chong took out his specially prepared spirit-eating bee evolution fluid, and then poured all of them into the spirit insect sac.

After seeing the medicinal liquid that entered the chaotic space, being turned into mist, and being inhaled by the spirit devouring bees together with the aura, Tian Chong couldn't help but look forward to it...

Looking forward to this evolution can bring some surprises to myself!
……

……

Came to Heimingyuan again, the environment here is still harsh, especially when Tian Chong returned to the place where Jiuyou crossed the catastrophe, and found that a volcano there had completely turned into a basin.

The basin was pitch black, with traces of being burned by volcanoes everywhere, and even some places where the magma hadn't completely condensed, still showing a liquid flow.

Tian Chong sighed again, just looking at the power of the flame, it can be seen that the Nine Nether Birds are equally terrifying even when they have not advanced to become the Nine Nether Birds!
After looking at it, Tian Chong didn't stay here, but headed towards the location of the black ghost ant's nest that he had found out at the beginning.

This Black Nether Ant nest is 150 miles southeast of this starting point. It is not considered the deepest area of ​​the Black Nether Abyss, but it is still dangerous. The attention of the spirit beast.

When he was less than ten miles away from the ant nest, traces of the black ghost ants could already be found around.

What Tian Chong didn't expect was that these black ghost ants were not the elementary spirit insects he had imagined, but intermediate... and he also saw with his own eyes a soldier ant the size of a millstone ejecting a mouthful of black magma-like liquid from its mouth. Something, directly killed a mid-level spirit beast Earthshaker, then cut the huge Earthshaker with its sharp upper jaw, and brought it back to the ant nest with its companions as food.

This scene made Tian Chong both surprised and delighted. What surprised him was that these black ghost ants were too strong, which would cause him great difficulties in subduing him in the future; he was also happy because these black ghost ants were powerful. If you subdue it, then it will be of great help to the next search for the golden source silkworm!
"Black magma, could it be that these black ghost ants were also affected by the Nine Nether Fire on the Nine Nether Birds, and that's why the mutation happened..."

Tian Chong looked at these black ghost ants, thought carefully in his mind, and found a possibility to mutate his group.

The Nine Youques did not know how many years they had stayed in the Black Nether Abyss. Anyway, in Tian Chongyuan's memory, he arrived at the Hei Nether Abyss more than 20 years ago.

At that time, he happened to meet Jiuyouque, who had failed to cross the tribulation for the first time, and then moved his mind, wanting to take advantage of this rare opportunity to sneak in, but in the end he was caught by the other party's Jiuyouhuo. burn to death...

With the horror of the Nine Nether Fires, it is not uncommon for such a long period of time to have an impact on the spirit beasts and insects living around.

If we understand it with modern people's thinking, it is "natural selection, survival of the fittest".

"Catch a black ghost ant first and try..." Tian Chong thought to himself.

Afterwards, he sent out some spirit devouring bees, and then looked for the soldier ants who were alone.The process was not difficult, and soon he found his goal.

"Squeak..."

Seeing the human beings suddenly appearing in front of him, the soldier ant screamed excitedly, obviously happy because he finally found a piece of meat.

Tian Chong didn't care so much, the sound of the flute came out, and then the black ghost ant, who was rushing excitedly, suddenly seemed to be drunk, and his footsteps began to sway...

Ecstasy, which can make the target's consciousness confused and fall into a lost state.

Afterwards, Tian Chong stopped the tune, waved out strands of spiritual energy threads with both hands, and quickly condensed into a large net in the air, directly restraining the confused black ghost ant.

Afterwards, Tian Chong stretched out his index finger, and flew out a blood-colored spirit seal from the fingertip, which directly sank into the forehead of the black ghost ant...

Immediately afterwards, Tian Chong felt that there was a chaotic consciousness in his mind, it was the black ghost ant who fell into confusion!

The blood-colored spirit seal is one of the means used by the spirit insects to control the spirit insects. It is called the blood control talisman. With the runes condensed with their own blood, the spirit insects can realize the consciousness of the spirit insects controlled by the spirit insects controlled by the insects. It is a secret technique unique to the spirit insect race, which cannot be mastered by ordinary insect masters.

In the following time, Tian Chong caught a low-level spirit beast and let the black ghost ant bring it back to the ant nest, while he himself left a trace of consciousness on the black ghost ant to investigate the ant. Nest details.

This can be regarded as one of the means that the original body is best at. Out of a cautious character, the original body has always acted according to the principle of making a decision before acting. The only impulse is to meet the Nine Nether Birds and then die. It's... I have to say that this is unlucky enough!
The place where the black ghost ant's nest is located is a huge pitch-black mountain. There are no plants growing on the mountain, and there are pitch-black rocks everywhere. On the top of the mountain is a small basin like a crater.

There are several three-foot-wide exits at the bottom of the mountain. At this time, countless black ants are coming in and out. Countless corpses of spirit beasts, and even trees are dragged into the holes by these black ants.

The celestial worm's spiritual consciousness was attached to the soldier ant, and it entered the winding mountainside from a cave.

The area of ​​this ant nest is very large, almost the entire mountain has been hollowed out, and the interior of the mountain is like a big maze. If outsiders enter, they may not be able to figure it out for ten days and a half months.

The soldier ants brought the corpse of the spirit beast, and instinctively came to the place where the opponent's nest was fed. As soon as they entered the range, the heavenly insect's consciousness was almost washed away by the bloody smell that soared into the sky.

Moreover, he also found that the black ghost ant responsible for arranging the corpses of the spirit beasts in this cave has turned red all over, with a pair of strong upper jaws, and its strength is several times stronger than that of ordinary soldier ants.

The fighting power of these blood-colored black ghost ants is obviously much stronger than that of ordinary soldier ants, and they are even close to being comparable to high-level spirit beasts.

"Not bad, these blood-colored black ghost ants have stronger potential, and they are worth cultivating." Tian Chong thought very satisfied.
