HCB Chapter 518: Level 7 Poison Centipede
Chapter 518: Level 7 Poison Centipede
"So you have to be bitten by poisonous insects in the order you want?" Bai Lan nodded: "I understand."
"Most of the poisonous insects in the Hundred Poison Tomb are high-level fourth or fifth-order poisonous insects. They are not very scary if they are picked out individually, but when they gather together, even a Jindan cultivator will be infected with their venom if he is not careful. In the deepest part, there is also a sixth-order Nether Color Poison Centipede. Most cultivators who enter the Hundred Poison Tomb die at its hands."
"So why do you know so clearly?"
Xuan Shazi said proudly, "Because this Hundred Poisons Tomb was created by me in the past for the purpose of refining poisons. It was not called this name back then. It was just a medicine garden in my cave."
Bai Lan's eyes lit up. Capturing Xuan Shazi to refine the elixir was like capturing the right soul. This old man really had something up his sleeve. He was very good at raising poisonous insects.
The Hundred Poisons Tomb, which is notorious in the demon world, is actually his former poison refining laboratory. If he is given enough experimental materials, wouldn't he be able to create a Thousand Poisons Tomb or a Ten Thousand Poisons Tomb?
If the Myriad Poison Tomb could truly be refined, she would really like to crush the talisman and throw True Lord Suiyun in to try...
Seeing Bai Lan's strange expression, Xuan Shazi waved his hands helplessly and said, "Before I died, I still had time to take care of them, but since my death, no one has been there to clean up these poisonous insects. Thousands of years have passed in a flash, and these poisonous insects have broken through the seal one by one. Perhaps it's because there is a spiritual vein under my cave, and they all refused to leave. They have been entrenched in my cave, and it has gradually become a dangerous place for demons."
"...Apart from the spiritual vein, are there any other treasures in your cave?" Bai Lan looked expectantly.
"No, that Dark Color Poison Centipede was able to grow to the sixth level because it developed a wisp of intelligence and swallowed most of the elixirs in my cave, which is why it has grown to its current level." Xuan Shazi became more and more angry as he thought about it. He slammed the alchemy furnace fiercely and said, "Evil beast, if I didn't have a physical body now, I would definitely capture it and refine the elixir myself."
"It's okay. The master will take care of it for you. After I have refined my body that is immune to all poisons, I will move the Tomb of a Hundred Poisons to the side of your cave so that you can study and refine poisons." Bai Lan patted Xuan Shazi's shoulder.
Xuan Shazi's eyes lit up: "Thank you, Master!!"
Bai Lan flashed away from the Void Stone, transformed himself into the appearance of True Man Qingxuan, and walked into the Tomb of Hundred Poisons.
"Tell Jin Heng that True Person Qing Xuan is being tortured in the Hundred Poison Tomb. If she is willing to hand over a wisp of her soul, you will open the seal. If not, True Person Qing Xuan will be trapped and die in this Hundred Poison Tomb."
Chi Yue and the other Nascent Soul cultivators of the Demonic Path exchanged a look of surprise, "Master Qing Xuan? Who is that?"
"do not know."
"He's called a True Man, so I guess he's just a Jindan kid... Could he be the son of True Monarch Jin Heng?"
"...As far as I know, Jin Heng has no offspring."
"Forget it. The Demon Lord must have her reasons for doing this. She once used Bai Ling, a mortal woman, to exchange for countless cultivation resources from the Great Elder. We didn't even know that Bai Ling was the Achilles' heel of the He Ghost, but she knew it clearly... I think she must have practiced some secret technique that can see through the most obsessed things in people's hearts." Elder Gu Teng said in a deep voice.
Bound Soul also nodded in agreement: "The Demon Lord's methods are indeed unfathomable."
As everyone was talking, their eyes would occasionally look towards the silent former Demon Lord, Chiyue, in the distance.
"Look at what I'm doing. The Demon Lord wants to capture Jin Heng alive. You'd better be careful when you act." Chi Yue snorted coldly, flicking his sleeves. "If Jin Heng dies accidentally, and the Demon Lord wants to kill you to bury him, I can't stop him."
"Yes! Ancestor Red Moon!"
At the same time, Bai Lan, who had already stepped into the Tomb of Hundred Poisons, looked calmly at the dark poisonous insects crawling, flying, swimming or wriggling in front of him. Under the venom, the walls, ground and even the spiritual power in the cave were filled with thick green poisonous gas.
These poisonous insects were either gnawing or spraying venom, and were attacking her spiritual shield in groups, as if they had seen some absolutely delicious food.
One or two would be fine, but when a group of poisonous insects attack together, the poison is extremely toxic, and the spiritual shield cannot last more than half a day under the erosion of the poison.
After saving a file, Bai Lan looked at the system beside him and handed him a protective magic weapon: "You stay here and scan and record the types of poisonous insects. Sort them from the lowest level, the third level, upwards, and list their toxicity one by one."
"Life Binding Silk, you stay here and help him contain the poisonous insects."
He raised his hand and shot out the transparent silk thread in his hand. The life-binding silk instantly tied up dozens of flying ants and poisonous bees in place, making them hiss and scream, making it easier for the system to record them.
The system tightly grasped the umbrella-shaped magic weapon and the bag of spirit stones handed to it by Bai Lan: "Received! So, host, what are you going to do..."
"To capture a thief, we must first capture the leader. I'm going to go meet that Dark Color Poison Centipede. If I kill it, perhaps the remaining poisonous insects will become obedient."
"Wait a minute!" Elder Fu suddenly spoke up. "That Dark Color Poison Centipede isn't a sixth-level one, it's a seventh-level one. This insect has already reached the transformation stage of the demon beast realm. It seems like it broke through not long ago."
Bai Lan paused.
The transformation stage means that there is a human-shaped centipede inside?
"Good boy, there is a purple light on the head of the centipede, and it is a mutated one. It has discovered you, Bai Lan girl. I suggest you capture it alive. The Dark Color Poison Centipede is rare, and the mutated one is even harder to come by in a thousand years!" Old Fu said excitedly.
As soon as Mr. Fu finished speaking, a black and purple figure slowly walked out from the depths of the cave with a hissing laugh.
A seventh-level demon beast can transform, but the transformation is incomplete and it will relatively retain many characteristics of the original form.
For example, the poisonous centipede in front of you has tentacles and poisonous hooks on its head. Its body is slender, and you can vaguely see seven or eight pairs of poisonous limbs on its sides and the tail segment behind it.
"Human, trespassing into our territory, die!"
The centipede seemed to have just mastered the skill of speaking. It slowly uttered a short sentence and then crawled towards Bai Lan at an incredible speed. It was behind Bai Lan in an instant and tried to sting him.
A green light flashed under his feet, and Bai Lan had already stepped on the green dragon and moved to another place. He looked at the poisonous centipede calmly: "Too slow, how come the one with eight legs can't outrun the one with two legs?"
