58: Chapter 057: Collecting the Marrow-draining Insect_1 58: Chapter 057: Collecting the Marrow-draining Insect_1 Having done all this, Lv Zhong noticed Yan Yan carefully staring at him with unwavering eyes.
He couldn’t help but panic.
Yan Yan was right next to him, so it would be easy for her to detect the presence of the [Soul Devouring Bug]!
Instantly, Lv Zhong came up with an excuse.
Grinning at Yan Yan, he said, “Yan Yan, could you go to the small shop outside and buy some red dates?
After I have finished applying the needles to your mother, they will come in handy.”
“Oh, okay!” Yan Yan didn’t suspect anything.
The small shop was only about fifty meters away from the garage, she could quickly buy the red dates and return.
Immediately, she happily ran outside.
Once Yan Yan left, Lv Zhong, blocked Yan Nuchao’s line of sight and swiftly released the mother insect and the twenty larvae of [Soul Devouring Bug].
The [Soul Devouring Bug], which had already communicated with Lv Zhong, instantly transformed into more than twenty black flashes of lightning, without any hesitation they burrowed in through Mu Qiongfang’s mouth, retracted their soul energy and divided themselves into several groups, congregating where the death qi in Mu Qiongfang’s body had condensed.
However, they didn’t release their [Soul Attack Thorns] immediately.
Instead, they waited like soldiers in various parts of Mu Qiongfang’s body, standing by for Lv Zhong’s ultimate command.
Using his Spiritual Sense, Lv Zhong quietly sensed the whereabouts of the mother [Marrow Sucking Worm].
He discovered that it seemed to sense danger.
It was terminating the process of laying eggs and was ready to crawl out from Mu Qiongfang’s sternum.
Utilizing his Spiritual Sense, Lv Zhong carefully counted and found that, apart from the mother [Marrow Sucking Worm], there were one hundred and fifty-three larvae inside Mu Qiongfang’s body.
Although the number of these one hundred and fifty-three larvae was large, the sum of the harm they inflicted on Mu Qiongfang was less than one percent, the remaining ninety nine percent of the harm was inflicted by the mother [Marrow Sucking Worm].
It can be said, this mother worm was the main culprit that almost killed Mu Qiongfang.
Now that it sensed danger and wanted to flee, Lv Zhong won’t let it succeed!
At this point, Chen Ru hurriedly commanded the mother [Soul Devouring Bug] to attack!
A subsonic wave, hardly audible to humans, echoed inside Mu Qiongfang’s body!
With the attack launched by the mother [Soul Devouring Bug], the other Soul-Devouring insects also started attacking the [Marrow Sucking Worm] inside Mu Qiongfang’s body.
The Soul-Devouring Insect and the Marrow Sucking Insect are two different types of insects!
Among them, Soul-Devouring Insect can devour soul energy, also unleash soul attacks, possessing a very mysterious and unique attack power!
Whereas, the [Marrow Sucking Worm] can suck the marrow from different living beings, plunder the nutrients and life force from within the bodies of other living beings, and even evolve to absorb the Spirit Roots from the body of the one they sucked marrow from, to strengthen itself and evolve into the [Three Corpse Brain God Worm].
Its potential is astonishing, but, at the early stage, it is no match for the [Soul Devouring Bug]!
As Lv Zhong was afraid that the Level 2 mother [Soul Devouring Bug] might hurt the mother [Marrow Sucking Worm], he ordered the mother [Soul Devouring Bug] not to launch its most powerful attack, but to continuously unleash its minor soul attack spikes against the mother [Marrow Sucking Worm].
Trapped in Mu Qiongfang’s body, and with the Marrow Sucking Worm not being a match for a Soul Devouring Bug at the same level in the few stages before its evolution, it couldn’t hold on under the continuous attacks from the mother [Soul Devouring Bug] and passed out.
As the mother [Marrow Sucking Worm] fell unconscious, following Lv Zhong’s command, the mother [Soul Devouring Bug] entered through the opening previously made by the mother [Marrow Sucking Worm] in Mu Qiongfang’s chest bone and pulled out the mother [Marrow Sucking Worm].
Upon sensing that the mother insect of the [Marrow Sucking Worm] had merely fainted, Chen Ru covertly used his Spiritual Sense, combined with the seal made by his hands, to directly seal the mother insect of the [Marrow Sucking Worm] and put it into the [Plague God Pearl].
This [Marrow Sucking Worm] has the terrifying potential to evolve into the [Three Corpse Brain God Worm].
Its value is beyond estimation.
Once this creature evolves into the [Three Corpse Brain God Worm], it can devour the Spirit Roots of countless genius cultivators for its own use.
At that time, with this thing in hand, Lv Zhong will possess the ability to easily change the cultivation qualifications of others.
Furthermore, with the evolution of the [Three Corpse Brain God Worm], it can devour the essence, roots, and souls of gods and demons, or control the souls of gods and demons…
Of course, to evolve to this step, it requires time and massive amounts of spiritual energy.
Having collected this [Marrow Sucking Worm], Lv Zhong couldn’t help but show a joyous expression.
Most importantly, the [Marrow Sucking Worm] just now was a mother insect.
This made Lv Zhong feel as if a pie had fallen from the sky and hit him.
Since the mother insect of the [Marrow Sucking Worm] had been collected by Lv Zhong, the remaining larvae left in Mu Qiongfang’s body became somewhat insignificant.
Following the principle of striking when the iron is hot, he put the remaining larvae of the [Marrow Sucking Worm] that could be promptly pulled out of Mu Qiongfang’s body into the Plague God Pearl.
For those that couldn’t be promptly removed, Lv Zhong released dozens of [Poison-eating bugs] to enter Mu Qiongfang’s body to carry out assassinations.
These [Poison-eating bugs] directly killed and devoured them.
Within a short amount of time, Lv Zhong had collected more than thirty larvae of the [Marrow Sucking Worm], and the remaining larvae were gradually killed by [Poison-eating bugs] and served as a feast in their mouths.
At this time, Yan Yan had returned with red dates.
Not wanting to arouse Yan Yan’s suspicion, Lv Zhong asked her to go boil water and to chop and soak the red dates.
Yan Yan, unaware that Lv Zhong was deliberately keeping her busy, felt happy to be of help and cheerfully busied herself.
About twenty minutes later, all of the [Marrow Sucking Worms] in Mu Qiongfang’s body had been cleaned out, not a single one was left.
While Yan Yan was still busy, Lv Zhong quietly called back the [Soul Devouring Bug] and [Poison-eating bugs] he had sent into Mu Qiongfang’s body and put them into the [Plague God Pearl].
All of this was done without anyone noticing.
Having accomplished this, Mu Qiongfang’s condition should not be worse than before.
However, without subsequent treatment, she would still die.
After all, the Marrow Sucking Worm had been in her body for more than a month, nearly draining her Life Source Force.
At this time, Lv Zhong prepared to perform acupuncture on Mu Qiongfang!
In fact, simple acupuncture would hardly have an effective treatment on Mu Qiongfang’s current condition.
However, if it is combined with a certain amount of True Qi based on the [Yimu Biological Needle], it could be very therapeutic.
It must be known that in ancient China, acupuncture and True Qi were often used together.
Moreover, there were many acupuncture techniques that utilized True Qi, but now on Earth where spiritual energy is extremely thin, there are few martial cultivators, and even fewer martial practitioners.
As a result, a large number of acupuncture techniques have been lost.
The [Yimu Biological Needle] of the Lv Family has the magical power to stimulate the vitality in the human body, making it the most suitable treatment for patients like Mu Qiongfang.
Most importantly, Lv Zhong also has the [Life Source Force] released by the [Pathogenic Worm] in his body.
With the cooperation of [Life Source Force], the power of the [Yimu Biological Needle] will be magnified countless times!
PS: Finally, I woke up this morning and the power had not gone out, haha, very happy, let’s upload a chapter.
I’ll try to update more today.
