Seeing the vines in Yan Junyu's palm, everyone cautiously stepped back a few steps, but Qi Ze stepped forward, attached his spiritual power to his fingertips, and pinched a vine for research. Yan Junyu subconsciously had the idea to protect him, the vines that were fierce and hairy immediately became soft, the black barbs were all collected into the stalks, and the jade-like smooth and lustrous branches and leaves swayed gently in the wind, showing a bit of cuteness. .
"Can you control it?" Qi Ze grabbed a small leaf and rubbed it.
"Not at first, as soon as you touch it, I will naturally understand what to do in a hurry." Yan Junyu stared at the young man's pale fingertips.
"Very good, this shows that you and the Gu worm have developed telepathy. But what we need to do is not to domesticate it, but to refine it, so this level is not enough now." Qi Ze took out a handful of thin Like sea sand, black crystals with a purity of up to 100% were evenly sprinkled on the ground, forming a circular pattern.
Yan Junyu asked curiously, "What is the difference between domestication and refining?"
"Tame is to train this Gu worm into your servant for you to drive. Refinement is to turn it into a part of your body." Qi Ze walked out of the camp and set up a huge isolation circle to avoid attracting Insect tide.
On the one hand, Langya was scared to death by Master Qi, and on the other hand, he was very interested in his methods. At this time, he asked boldly, "Young Master Qi, listening to you, domestication seems to be better. One more servant is more. A bit of fighting power." Anyway, he couldn't imagine what the consequences of refining would be, turning something that looked like a worm and a plant into a part of his body sounded terrifying!
"This is where you are short-sighted. Although domestication is easier than refining, and you don't have to suffer too much from flesh and blood, the domesticated Gu worm still has a sense of intelligence. Once the master's power is weakened and cannot be suppressed, it will violently Backlash. The higher the level of the Gu worm, the greater the possibility of backlash." Qi Zebu isolated the magic circle, walked slowly back to the camp, and continued, "The refined Gu worm has been wiped out of its mind, it is yours. A part of it, or a weapon, you can use it as you like."
"In this way, refining is safer." Yan Junyu nodded.
"Yes, but you will suffer more. Which one do you choose?" Qi Ze looked at him seriously.
"I'm not afraid of suffering."
"Okay, sit here, I'll teach you a formula," Qi Ze pointed to the three-meter-diameter circular array made of black crystal, and said, "Every day from now on, I will make it for you. For such a magic circle, you must sit at the eye of the circle and recite this mantra, and you can't stop all night. Remember, you must not stop, even if you are dying of pain!"
"I remember." Yan Junyu walked in without thinking, sitting at the eye of the formation, staring at the boy. As long as this person is always within sight, he can see as soon as he lifts his eyes, what kind of hardships and pains he believes he can survive.
"Master Li, please help protect the law, don't let irrelevant people come to disturb." Qi Ze sat down with his knees crossed and spoke politely.
"Okay." Li Ziqian hesitated for a moment before saying, "Master Qi, you don't need to call me Young Master Li, just call me by my name."
"Then don't always call me Master Qi, I'm still young." Qi Ze made a joke.
The two looked at each other with a light expression, but Yan Junyu was not at all jealous. They have always used honorifics to match each other. It can be seen that the relationship between the two is still very polite, far less intimate than their own.
"Okay, let me read one sentence, you repeat one sentence, pay attention to the movement of the spiritual energy in your body. Your memory has been unsealed, you should understand how to be lucky?" Qi Ze's hands were hanging in the air, placing them on the ends of his knees.
"I know." Yan Junyu adjusted his sitting posture while nodding, and then skillfully used his spiritual energy. He listened carefully to the boy's pronunciation, and then repeated each sentence, the nine black crystals sensed it and slowly released a black mist to wrap him.
That formula has a suppressing effect on the insects and beasts in the belly, but the magical energy released by the black crystal can make it grow and grow. The two methods are used together, like ice and fire, and it seems to be separated between hell and heaven. The worm immediately became frantic. It struggled and neighed while greedily sucking demonic energy, which was so hard for Yan Junyu that he almost lost half his life.
But he didn't pause for a single syllable, and after repeating it several times, he was able to recite the formula fluently without Qi Ze's guidance. The skin on his abdomen was almost torn apart, and countless tentacles stirred and stabbed inside, and the three vines wanted to break open from the palm of his hand and swarmed out. However, the formulae engraved on his body by Qi Ze in advance worked. Every time he was hit, a golden light would glow, suppressing the resistance of the insects and beasts.
Others didn't understand what was going on, they only saw Yan Junyu sitting in a cloud of black mist, with golden light shining from the top and bottom of his body, occasionally a few large lumps bulging out of his abdomen, which quickly disappeared, and he tossed it over and over again and again. Night. Everyone watching was panicked for him, but he himself didn't even frown.
Langya stayed there for most of the night before he fell asleep in fear, and said to a few cronies, "If you see the Yan family army in the future, hide away. Yan Junyu has such perseverance, and he must be a ruthless character in the future!" If it were himself, would he be able to endure such a situation pain? This question came to everyone's mind, and they were shaking and denying it.
When the morning light spread all over the camp, the black mist covering Yan Junyu was finally absorbed by him, and the crystal powder and nine fist-sized black crystals that formed the magic circle also disappeared.
"How do you feel?" Qi Ze stood up, shaking the dew from his hair.
"You stayed with me all night?" Yan Junyu's eyes lit up.
"Brother Li and I also watched over you all night." Ouyang Ye said with a sullen look. Xiao Hei floated down from the branch, and patted his chest with his little hand, as if to say "there is me".
"Thank you. I feel good." Yan Junyu opened his palms and called out three vines. They were both delicate and soft. They came to Qi Ze with a sway, gently swaying his wet black hair, and then rubbed against his cheek.
"Yesterday I couldn't completely control them, but now I can." Yan Junyu retracted the vines, and the tips of his ears were a little red. What he didn't tell the boy was that if necessary, he could feel everything in the outside world through the vines. The smooth black hair of the boy and the warmth of his skin were all transmitted into his sensory world with unparalleled clarity.
"Controlling it is just the first step," Qi Ze stretched out his hand, grabbed a small leaf of the vine, and explained, "The formula I taught you last night was the chapter on killing spirits, which can obliterate the sanity of low-level spirits. Knowing how far it can grow, so you can't tell you exactly how long it will take you to end the pain."
He stroked the veins of the leaves with his fingertips, and sighed, "Maybe it will be fine in two or three months, or maybe you will not be able to get rid of it for the rest of your life."
Yan Junyu tried his best to control his body's reaction, and said hoarsely, "You won't leave me alone, will you?"
"Of course." Qi Ze let go of the blade and nodded firmly.
Yan Junyu breathed a sigh of relief, arched his back slightly, and said in a trembling voice, "It doesn't matter, I can persevere no matter how long it takes. Sorry, I'll go take a shower."
Qi Ze thought that the Gu insect was doing something wrong again, and quickly asked two soldiers to help him down. Only Li Ziqian glanced at his lower abdomen thoughtfully. Although the camouflage uniform is very loose, some people have too much capital to cover it. Does pain make you estrus? I don't seem to have heard of it.
Yan Junyu stayed in the bathroom for half an hour before coming out. The group ate breakfast, folded various buildings and put them into the space button, and then went on the road again. The development of technology is too fast, and it does not seem to be a good thing for human beings. Once encountering strong electromagnetic interference, airships, airships, flying cars and other means of transportation are completely unusable, but not as convenient as four-wheeled cars. Yan Jiajun and the Red Ghost Star Pirates naturally did not have the habit of carrying antique cars, so they could only walk.
Fortunately, the special people had strong physical fitness, and the speed of the journey was not slow. It took seven hours to reach the original destination, and a lot of poisons were collected along the way. Qi Ze kept his spiritual eyes open all day, and let everyone collect which poison had the most spiritual energy. When they stopped to set up camp, many people hung up their laurels, and even Langya went through fire and water for Master Qi to help him get a transparent fish.
"Master Qi, you have such a good eye. The things you see are the most difficult poisons to get your hands on." After Lang Ya rested his crooked thoughts, he and Yan Jiajun got along happily instead.
"Do you know how Gu is made?" Qi Ze played with a bunch of bottles in a good mood.
"Put it in the tank to feed the poison." Langya replied.
"It's not that simple. To feed a Gu, you must first select countless young Gus, put them in a large urn, fill them with venom, and let them kill each other. The final winner is the adult Gu. Then put the countless adult Gus. Put it in a big urn, fill it with venom, let them kill again, and the final winner is the black gu. After the black gu, there is the silver gu, after the silver gu, there is the gold gu, after the gold gu, there is the gu king, after the gu king there is Immortal Gu. So you see, such a little poison is actually not enough." Qi Ze encouraged, "Please continue to work hard tomorrow."
Langya's face turned green, and just as he didn't know how to answer this, a star thief roared in dissatisfaction, "We have nothing to do with Yan Junyu at all, why should we die for him?"
"I use this energy stone as a reward, is it enough?" Qi Ze took out a fist-sized white crystal.
Langya's eyes brightened, and he couldn't help reaching out to pick it up. Although all the detectors were no longer available, he could tell with the naked eye that the purity of this power stone must be extremely high. The higher the purity of the power stone, the more crystal clear the color, like the one in Master Qi's hand that is transparent without a trace of impurities, it is almost unprecedented.
"Tenth-level energy stone?" Wolf Fang was short of breath.
"How many grades do you mean for a 100% pure energy stone?" Qi Ze asked him back.
"This is impossible!" Wolf Fang immediately denied.
"If you don't believe it, forget it." Qi Ze took back Bai Jing and said unconvincingly, "Without you, we would be slower at best, and it wouldn't be a big hindrance." For the sake of helping him catch aquatic poisons, he was reluctant to take out this top-level spirit stone.
Langya didn't dare to sell the brothers inexplicably, so he turned his head and stopped talking.
Qi Ze took out a black crystal and fed it into Yan Junyu's mouth, and then began to refine Gu worms. Fortunately, this planet's poison aptitudes are all good, and a single one is enough to be called a Gu King, but it doesn't need to start from becoming a Gu. The pottery urn he chose today was larger than the one he used yesterday, and the poisonous juice he poured into it was twice as much. .
"The procedure today seems to be different from yesterday?" Yan Junyu asked in a low voice.
"Every day's procedure will be different." Qi Ze's hands were covered with black fire, and he put his hands on the belly of the urn, slowly boiling the venom, and explained, "The Gu worms refined today will always be more powerful than yesterday, so the refined ones The means will become more and more severe.”
Yan Junyu nodded and asked no more. Li Ziqian and Ouyang Ye had long avoided, their nerves were not as strong as Yan Shaozhu's. Xiaohei sat in Mingrui's arms, dripping with drool.
The black fire boiled the venom so much that Qi Ze looked at it and poured the poison into it. After a fierce battle, the one that survived this time was a poisonous snake the size of a pinky finger. Its dark scales glowed with a cold blue light, with a single horn on its forehead and blood-red eyes. It looked more terrifying than the colorful silkworm yesterday. .
"Eat it while it's hot." Qi Ze grabbed the snake and handed it to Yan Junyu.
Yan Junyu pinched the snake's seven inches and was about to put it in his mouth, when Ouyang Ye, who had been peeking at this side, suddenly said, "If you let someone you like see this scene, do you think he will leave a psychological shadow? Don't you dare to kiss you?"
Li Ziqian burst out laughing, and the soldiers covered their faces one after another, not daring to look at the bleak expression of the captain. Yan Junyu, who never knew how to write the word "timid", hesitated. He looked at the boy and asked, "Will you dislike it?"
"None of my business?" Qi Ze scolded with a blushing face.
"If I let you kiss me, would you dare?" Yan Junyu asked persistently. The members of the Red Ghost Star Thief Group are all hooligans who love to join in the fun, laughing and laughing while repeating, "Master Qi, do you dare to kiss Young Master Yan? If you dare, we will respect you as a man!"
"I'm a real man without kissing!" Qi Ze yelled angrily.
"In your eyes, I'm a monster, right?" Yan Junyu swallowed the poisonous snake with a bitter expression, "I see."
"You understand!" Qi Ze couldn't see his self-abandoned appearance, so he dragged him over, nibbled at his lips, and asked, "Is that ok? insect?"
Yan Junyu laughed sincerely, using the power of pain to press the boy on the lawn and hug him tightly. Ouyang Ye's face turned green, and he could not wait to kick people away. Li Ziqian poked the fire with a wooden stick and gave him three words—God Assist.
Qi Ze didn't dare to push the man away for fear of hurting the other party, so he had to lie down obediently and let him bury in his shoulders, breathing heavily, and chewing gently. Yan Junyu originally thought that each attack would be more severe than the last, but this time, he actually had a feeling of unfinished business. If he can do whatever he wants with the teenager only when he is in pain, he would rather prolong the process indefinitely.
----
After refining more than a dozen Gu Kings in a row, the team finally reached a forest shrouded in dense fog.
"Wear a gas mask, this forest is very abnormal." Yan Junyu ordered in a deep voice.
"Indeed. All the forests are dead, but this forest is so dense that it looks wrong." Li Ziqian turned his hands into animal claws, took off a leaf and crushed it, frowning, "This kind of plant We have tested it on the road, and it is not poisonous, but it is highly poisonous here. It is an environmental problem."
"Well, be careful not to touch any plants, we camp in the sand at the edge of the forest." Although he suffered unimaginable pain every day, Yan Junyu's body recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye. He seems to have grown taller, stronger, more agile, and possessed extraordinary self-healing powers. In the first few days, he needed someone else to help him catch poison. Later, he did it all by himself, and the fighting style was very strange.
Three vines grew from each of his hands, and a blue flower bloomed at the top. The petals were full of dense teeth, which pierced into plants or animals and sucked them dry in an instant. He was like a harvester, leaving no nails wherever he passed. Over time, the vines grew stronger and stronger, and the black barbs all over the stalks kept oozing mucus, which was extremely poisonous at first glance.
The current Yan Junyu, in his own words, really looks like a monster. Of course, when he put away the vines, he was still the handsome young marshal, but his temperament was more restrained than before.
"Is there enough poison for today? Not enough for me to go in and find it." He put down the boy on his back and asked softly.
"Enough. Don't run around alone, we don't even know if it's dangerous." Qi Ze said disapprovingly.
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Yan Junyu laughed heartily.
The group began to camp and then assigned patrol shifts. Li Ziqian strolled along the edge of the forest holding Ming Rui, Xiao Hei floated above the two of them, holding a chubby poisonous insect in his hand. Suddenly, a strong wind hit, Li Ziqian immediately took Ming Rui to dodge, but Xiao Hei was caught by a vine and stuffed into a large mouth of blood.
It was a huge worm, weighing at least one ton, with a black carapace covering its body. Numerous vines protruded from the bottom of the carapace and attacked all living things. The ground began to sink, and it could be seen that it was hiding in the sand and waiting for an opportunity. Li Ziqian, Xiao Hei, and Yan Junyu became its number one target.
"Shoot, shoot quickly!" Wolf Fang roared with his particle gun. The dense fireballs hit the insect beast, causing its tentacles to break. But the danger was not lifted, instead it became worse, the broken tentacles turned into a complete, smaller worm and attacked the camp.
The insect tide took shape in the shortest time, even if Yan Junyu's vines could suck them dry, it would not be able to keep up with their strange splitting speed.
"Gather around me, hurry up!" Qi Ze ordered decisively.
Everyone came to him one after another, firing shells in all directions. Qi Ze summoned the small mecha, stuffed it with a radioactive ore, and ordered, "Blow it up!" The jets at the feet of the small mecha made a sharp whistling sound, and flew at a speed too fast to catch the afterimage. In front of the giant beast, he fired a pulse cannon into its mouth and threw radioactive ore into it.
The mushroom cloud rushed into the sky with a loud noise, and the insects and beasts were blown into countless pieces, falling to the ground like raindrops, and instantly developed into new insects and beasts, crawling towards a certain direction by instinct. The swarms of insects in the camp also turned around in unison and rushed towards that place. The team members who would be swallowed up in just a few steps showed expressions of the rest of their lives.
All the little insects and beasts squeezed into a huge ball, killing and devouring each other. Before long, they'll turn into a full beast again and attack. This kind of bug has no natural enemies, and it can't be killed at all. No matter how small it is, it can develop into a brand new individual.
The deep fear weighed on everyone's heart, making them gasp for breath. But the twists and turns, those huddled bugs suddenly rolled all over the ground like bursting mercury. Their tentacles flicked a few times and then went limp, and they were actually dead.
"Why did you suddenly die?" Ouyang Ye asked in fear.
"It's radioactive ore." Qi Ze recalled the small mecha and handed it a black crystal the size of a soybean grain. The little mecha immediately hugged and bowed happily.
Several soldiers put on protective clothing and ran over to sweep away the corpse of the bug. Sure enough, a radioactive ore and an octagonal black crystal were found at the bottom. "What is this?" they asked, holding up the crystal.
"Show me." Qi Ze's eyes were slightly bright, and he subconsciously wrapped the black crystal with his spiritual power to avoid another wave of insects. The radioactive ore was collected by Li Ziqian into the space button. Radioactive substances can not only kill insects and beasts, but also human beings, and have extremely bad effects on the surrounding environment. Therefore, they must not use this kind of lose-lose approach unless they have to.
"Young Master Qi, what the hell is this? Those bugs seem to give up attacking us just to compete for it." Ouyang Ye said with lingering fears.
Qi Ze knocked on his forehead and pondered, "This should be an inner alchemy. Only insects with a high enough level can condense. If you swallow it, the new insects can evolve immediately." However, this is just speculation, what is the truth? , further verification is required.
Qi Ze was pacing in the messy camp, and he didn't know what to think, but his breathing became rapid. He grabbed Yan Junyu's hand and said in a hoarse voice, "I have a way to help you refine Immortal Gu all at once. If this inner pill is useful, my idea will definitely succeed. That way, you will no longer have to endure every day's pain. It hurts." It seemed that only the last sentence was what he really wanted to say.
