Eternal Life as False Emperor-Chapter 60 - 56: King Yan’s Rebellion?

This object has another function in Nanyue County: breeding Gu insects!

Placing Gu insects into a vessel made of Black Jade can keep them vigorous and conceal their aura, making the cultivation effect even better.

As for Zheng Yi, the Black Jade King Cauldron was presented along with the Moonlight Gu by Shen Xing.

At this moment, it has become the best vessel for Zheng Yi to breed the Moonlight Gu — or should I say, the Blood Moon Gu!

Inside the Black Jade King Cauldron, over a dozen Moonlight Gu were entangled together, biting and tearing at each other, all to compete for a drop of essence blood that Zheng Yi had just dripped into the Great Cauldron!

Breeding Blood Moon Gu!

The mother Moonlight Gu had long since laid eggs, with the first batch resulting in seventeen larvae.

According to the Dongyun Spirit Insect Blood Sacrifice Technique and the Nanyue Gu Cultivation Secret Technique, insect-type spirit insects win by sheer numbers.

However, there must be a queen, king insect, or several leader-level spirit insects to command the swarm’s attack.

What Zheng Yi is doing today is breeding a king insect within the swarm!

This method, while breeding the king insect, also cultivates the ferocity and murderous intent of the spirit insects, making the pack of Moonlight Gu even more fierce.

"Zhi zhi zhi..."

"Sss sss sss..."

The seventeen Moonlight Gu engaged in intense battle, gnawing each other with their tiny mouths and devouring each other in large bites.

As they battled, they wiggled toward the direction of Zheng Yi’s essence blood, immersing their entire bodies in it, constantly absorbing the power of the essence blood.

At the same time, rays of moonlight shone down on them, infiltrating their bodies slowly, healing their wounds and replenishing the Moonlight Essence within them.

Finally, after the frenzy of killing and devouring, only eleven Moonlight Gu were left standing among the seventeen.

The other six Moonlight Gu had all become the nourishment for these eleven Moonlight Gu.

Their bodies became plump and white, looking like silkworms ready to spin cocoons.

The difference was, a faint red thread could be seen on their bodies, marking them as different.

Seeing this, Zheng Yi didn’t hesitate to drip another eleven drops of essence blood onto them.

The mixture of essence blood and Moonlight Essence was gradually absorbed by the eleven Moonlight Gu.

Eleven drops of essence blood equated to eleven years of lifespan!

Ordinary cultivators would not have the generosity or determination to use their own lifespan to cultivate Moonlight Gu.

"Zhi zhi zhi~"

Suddenly, one of the eleven Gu insects let out a series of sharp cries.

It abruptly turned and bit down on a nearby companion, tearing into it in large bites.

The bitten companion screamed and fought back, engaging in a fierce battle with this Moonlight Gu.

Seeing this, the other Moonlight Gu all moved off to different areas to continue absorbing essence blood and Moonlight Essence.

"Oh?"

Zheng Yi’s eyes lit up slightly, but he didn’t stop this Moonlight Gu. Instead, he watched it with interest.

"The other Moonlight Gu have almost eaten their fill; they’ve absorbed enough Moonlight Essence and essence blood and will enter a short ’digestion’ state."

"In this state, they become like cats that have eaten too much, needing to sleep for a while to digest the energy within them."

"Essence blood, Moonlight Essence, I didn’t expect this Moonlight Gu to have the time and constitution to fight!"

"Seems like this Gu insect’s potential is unusual, perhaps it’s similar to the queen insect..."

After the time it would take to make tea, the sounds of tearing and biting finally subsided.

In the end, the Moonlight Gu being bitten was entirely devoured by this Gu insect.

Along with it, the two drops of essence blood were also absorbed.

The entire creature’s size was far larger than the ordinary Moonlight Gu, as big as a Saintess Fruit.

The moon-white body also clearly displayed that blood-colored thread.

The other nine Moonlight Gu were clearly inferior in both size and the blood-colored thread.

"Zhi zhi zhi~"

Suddenly, this Moonlight Gu slightly raised its head, opened its mouth, and shot out a nail-sized Moon Blade.

With a piercing sound, the Moon Blade shot out sharply and sliced off a nail-sized piece of Black Jade from the edge of the Black Jade King Cauldron!

"Such an impressive creature!"

Zheng Yi exclaimed in surprise that this Moonlight Gu managed to master the Moon Blade attack so quickly?

Moonlight Gu, besides the ordinary biting attack, can also emit a Moon Blade by utilizing the Moonlight Essence stored within them.

The more moonlight absorbed, the more magical power contained within the body, and the more powerful the emitted Moon Blade!

"Zhi zhi zhi?"

Suddenly, a blood-colored flying insect about the size of a baby’s fist crawled out from Zheng Yi’s left shoulder.

This flying insect looked like a moth, but it was blood-red.

The moonlight shone upon it, with a layer of moon-white halo emerging on its surface.

Blood Moon Gu, queen.

This was Zheng Yi’s first cultivated Moonlight Gu queen, and it had grown to this level.

He had conducted experiments with it before, and found that the Blood Moon Gu’s Moon Blade was blood-red.

With a single strike, it easily penetrated three inches of steel!

If such power strikes a person, it would be enough to kill an Innate Realm Martial Artist!

As soon as the Blood Moon Gu queen appeared, the nine Moonlight Gu in the Black Jade King Cauldron immediately lay docilely within, their heads pressed against the Jade Cauldron.

As for that Moonlight Gu, it actually lifted its head, its small eyes staring fiercely at the Blood Moon Gu queen.

"Buzz buzz buzz..."

The Blood Moon Gu queen spread its wings, almost becoming a blur as it landed inside the Black Jade King Cauldron, and slapped the Moonlight Gu onto the ground with a paw.

I’m your mother!

Dare to glare at me?!

Blood Moon Gu slapped the Moonlight Gu with a paw repeatedly, terrifying the Moonlight Gu into letting out "Zhi zhi zhi" cries, scrambling around to evade the maternal paw.

Watching this, Zheng Yi couldn’t help but laugh a little, "Why does this feel like a mother disciplining a naughty child?"

"Don’t kill it; I still need it."

"Zhi zhi zhi...!"

The reply was a series of sharp cries from the Blood Moon Gu queen.

With a thought, the Yin Yang Treasure Mirror appeared in his mind.

Line after line of text also appeared conspicuously.

[Life Master: Zheng Yi]

[Talent: Yin and Yang]

[Lifespan: 24/113]

[Cultivation Technique: White Lotus Reincarnation Divine Skill Second Layer (125/1000)]

[Hundred Battle Blood Slaughter Saber Third Layer (11225/100000)]

[Overall Strength: First Grade]

[Innate Spiritual Energy Progress (Tier One): 5/10]

Due to breeding the Moonlight Gu, the lifespan was down to just 113 years, crystalizing Zheng Yi’s sense of urgency.

"A hundred and thirteen years left, meaning I can live another 90 years? Too little!"

"Only breeding a dozen Moonlight Gu cost this much, what about next time?"

"I must have the concubine candidates enter the palace soon!"

Zheng Yi’s mind stirred, and the Blood Moon Gu crawled back onto his shoulder.

His tone turned icy, "Little bug, I have a task for you."

"Go, do not disappoint me."

"Buzz buzz buzz..."

Blood Moon Gu spread its wings as thin as cicada’s, swiftly taking off, almost transforming into a streak of blood light shooting out.

And its flight direction was targeting... Cining Palace!

Besides being able to shoot out Moon Blades for attack, the Blood Moon Gu also has the ability to drain a person’s energy and terrify their mind.

If you wish to save face, I shall grant you one!

"Your Majesty~"

Liu Cheng’en hurriedly walked in: "Greetings Your Majesty, where shall you rest tonight?"

"Head to... Consort Bi’s place."

"Meanwhile, I can also see Noble Lady Zhen, and Jie’er and Yu’er."

The White Lotus Reincarnation Divine Skill is only at the second layer, and he needs to continue working hard to break through soon.

"As you wish!"
