Zombie Cultivation Across Worlds-Chapter 57 – Two-headed Python, Fate Gu
Ocean Blue Star, East Lake City, Haotai Hotel.
Chu Xuan found himself once again in this familiar place.
He appeared on the rooftop, as usual.
Chu Xuan preferred the rooftop for its expansive view, choosing it over the hotel rooms.
As soon as he arrived, he heard Little Tiger's excited roar.
In the next moment, a massive, robust figure charged towards him like a tank.
In the blink of an eye, it was right in front of Chu Xuan.
Its large head kept rubbing against Chu Xuan.
To outsiders, this might seem strange.
But this was how the Yin Corpse expressed affection.
Chu Xuan smiled and nodded, "How have you been while I was away?"
"Roar, roar, roar!" Little Tiger gestured energetically.
Pointing east, then west.
Jumping and running around.
It was quite a lively performance, full of emotion.
Of course, Chu Xuan couldn't understand just by looking at these antics.
He relied on the connection between his Divine Soul and Little Tiger to grasp the thoughts it conveyed.
"As I expected, everything is mostly normal, but a small incident did occur."
Chu Xuan nodded slightly.
From the thoughts Little Tiger transmitted, he learned.
A Two-headed Python had appeared in East Lake, over twenty meters long, dominating the area.
Many transcendent creatures around had been hunted by the Two-headed Python.
Two months ago, it wreaked havoc in East Lake City.
Black Edge Security Company suffered heavy losses and had to seek help from the Linjiang Army.
The Two-headed Python even recklessly tried to enter the Yin Soul Snatching Formation.
However, it rushed out shortly after entering, its Divine Soul seemingly affected.
Little Tiger also had a confrontation with the Two-headed Python, giving it a severe beating, causing it to escape with a broken tail.
Now, it's uncertain whether it entered Longjiang or is hiding deep in East Lake to recover.
Currently, the Linjiang Army has dispatched over a hundred personnel to East Lake City, searching various water bodies for the Two-headed Python's whereabouts.
Little Tiger and Little Leopard have encountered them, but each time they quickly vanished into the darkness.
Those Linjiang Army soldiers were too weak to even notice their presence.
Chu Xuan was quite interested in the Two-headed Python.
The transcendent creatures of Ocean Blue Star seemed quite different from the demonic beasts of Cangxuan World.
If it were an ordinary demonic beast entering his Yin Soul Snatching Formation, it would have long become nourishment for the formation.
Yet, the Two-headed Python managed to enter and leave alive after a brief stay.
This intrigued him.
Its Divine Soul might have unique qualities.
If extracted, it might serve as the main soul for a formation.
However, there was no rush.
Since the Linjiang Army team hadn't withdrawn from East Lake City, it meant the Two-headed Python was still there.
A mere Two-headed Python, could it be stronger than a Foundation Establishment cultivator?
When he had the time, he would deal with it effortlessly, not considering it a significant matter.
"Where's Little Leopard?"
Chu Xuan asked casually.
"Roar, roar, roar!"
Little Tiger pointed north.
Chu Xuan nodded, Little Tiger said Little Leopard had gone out to hunt.
Because all the zombies in East Lake City had been wiped out in the last zombie tide.
Over the past year, although some zombies wandered in from surrounding cities, their numbers remained relatively low.
Little Tiger and Little Leopard simply went to neighboring cities like Shuanglong City to hunt.
Chu Xuan was very confident in their abilities.
It was the zombies in those cities that needed to worry.
"You stand guard here."
Chu Xuan said casually.
"Roar, roar!"
Little Tiger thumped its chest heavily, looking solemn.
Chu Xuan sat down cross-legged and immediately began cultivating his life-bound Gu Insect.
The Blood Insect Book detailed two requirements for cultivating a life-bound Gu Insect.
The source of this c𝓸ntent is freewebnøvel.coɱ.
First, form a Blood Insect Sack.
Second, feed the life-bound Gu Insect with Essence Blood.
Now, the Blood Insect Sack had already formed.
Chu Xuan needed to feed the Blood Steel Wire with Essence Blood.
"Steel Wire, come out."
Chu Xuan called softly.
A slit opened in his palm.
The Steel Wire emerged, affectionately rubbing against his arm.
Chu Xuan forced out three drops of Essence Blood, his face instantly turning pale.
The Steel Wire, as if it had smelled a feast, quickly approached and devoured the drops of Essence Blood.
"Whew... The production of Essence Blood is really slow."
"On average, it seems to take three days to produce a single drop."
Chu Xuan shook his head helplessly.
He couldn't give too much Essence Blood at once.
Otherwise, it would overfeed the Steel Wire.
In the blink of an eye, a month passed.
Three days per drop of Essence Blood, plus the initial three drops, Chu Xuan fed the Steel Wire a total of thirteen drops of Essence Blood.
The bond between him and the Steel Wire grew stronger by the day.
Until the last day.
The fourteenth drop of Essence Blood was consumed.
Chu Xuan suddenly felt a clarity of mind.
The Steel Wire felt like an extension of his own body.
With just a thought, the Steel Wire knew what to do.
It was truly as if it were part of him!
Thus, the life-bound Gu Insect was successfully cultivated.
This way, the Steel Wire's combat power would greatly increase.
The possibility of backlash would significantly decrease.
However, if the Steel Wire were injured, Chu Xuan would also feel the pain, suffering severe trauma.
That day, when Wu Teng's Brain-eating Insect Queen was killed by Hui Kong, Wu Teng nearly fainted, a result of the severe backlash from the death of his life-bound Gu Insect.
Chu Xuan gently stroked the Steel Wire, a satisfied smile on his face.
"My choice was indeed correct. Cultivating a life-bound Gu Insect is too time-consuming, it can't be done in Cangxuan World."
"Unfortunately, the Blood Steel Wire egg I planted earlier not only failed to hatch but died."
Chu Xuan recalled the previous incident with some regret.
It seemed the Blood Steel Wire egg had some inherent issues.
After absorbing his blood, it silently dissolved over a month or two.
"My next Gu Insect can be of a completely different type."
"Perhaps I can have the Steel Wire mate with a stronger Gu Insect to produce a new type of egg."
"That's also an option."
After some time of study, Chu Xuan had thoroughly mastered the Blood Insect Book.
He was well-versed in how to cultivate better Gu Insects.
His life-bound Gu Insect's bloodline had already surpassed ordinary Blood Steel Wires.
If anything, it could be considered a mutated Blood Steel Wire.
It was entirely possible to find an opportunity for it to mate with a stronger Gu Insect to produce eggs.
Of course, such eggs would be unstable, akin to opening a blind box.
If it went wrong, it would waste considerable effort and time.
"That's about it, let's go out and see where that Two-headed Python is now."
Chu Xuan gathered his Spiritual Power, shaking off the dust that had settled on him.
"Roar, roar!"
Little Tiger roared happily.
For the past month, apart from hunting, it had stayed by Chu Xuan's side without leaving.
It was delighted that its master needed it.
Seeing Little Leopard's less enthusiastic roar nearby, it gave it a big slap, roaring in its face.
As if saying: The master is here, and you're not roaring enthusiastically enough, what's the point of having you!
Little Leopard whimpered in grievance, as if admitting its mistake.
Chu Xuan laughed and patted their heads.
He had seen Little Tiger's loyalty.
"Come, accompany me for a walk."
"Roar, roar!" Little Tiger and Little Leopard both let out excited roars.
Chu Xuan stored them in the Corpse Raising Tower, took out the Heavenly Force Flying Sword, and soared into the sky.
