Chapter 1904

Those spirit insects were struck by those magic techniques and immediately let out mournful cries, forced to separate. WwW. feiazw. CoM

Then the three "Han Lis" chanted words, and the magic techniques in their hands changed incessantly.

The dozen or so purple-patterned beetles seemed to have their minds controlled by some restriction. Even though they were full of unwillingness, after flapping their wings repeatedly, they all pounced on the white threads that had been sprayed out earlier and devoured them in large mouthfuls.

These beetles devoured at an astonishing speed, and the originally dense white threads were devoured clean in a short while.

The "Han Li" with pale green skin saw this situation and suddenly opened its mouth, actually spraying out countless specks of silver light.

These silver lights were only the size of beans, but as soon as they fell into the green giant tripod, they transformed into dozens of silver giant flowers the size of palms. The petals flashed with silver light and were covered with blood-red patterns, looking extremely strange.

When the dozen or so beetles saw these silver flowers, they let out sounds of joy and pounced on them again, and each silver flower was swallowed in an instant.

However, whenever a silver flower disappeared, another one would definitely emerge silently.

After the time it takes to eat a meal, these beetles had devoured thousands of silver flowers. As the purple patterns on their bodies flowed, they were actually faintly a circle larger than before.

And at this time, the golden "Han Li" suddenly opened its eyes wide, and groups of black flames actually sprayed out from its blood-red eyeballs. After a few flickers, they turned into a black sea of fire, sweeping all the dozen or so spirit insects into it.

A strange scene appeared!

These spirit insects opened and closed their mouths, actually spitting and swallowing these black flames incessantly.

Every time they swallowed and spat, the black flames decreased a little. Not long after, all the black flames were actually swallowed into the abdomens of these beetles, leaving not a trace behind.

At this time, the last Han Li let out a low shout, and with both sleeves waving in unison, two thunderclaps suddenly rang out. Then, with a flash of golden light, two golden arcs as thick as bowls shot out, and in a flash, they turned into two golden thunder nets that fell one after another, covering all the dozen or so beetles underneath.

"Rumble" explosive sounds erupted!

The two thunder nets turned into countless tiny electric arcs, and amidst the flickering golden electric light, they submerged all the beetles within.

But if one stared carefully, one could see that under the frantic strikes of the electric arcs, the purple patterns on the bodies of the golden spirit insects flickered on and off, but they stretched out their limbs and let more golden electric arcs strike them, looking completely extremely comfortable.

They were completely unharmed in the electric light.

I don't know how much time passed, but when the golden thunder light finally gradually converged and disappeared, the Han Li with the golden halo rotating on its head also opened its eyes. At the same time, the seventy-two small green swords in the halo on its head trembled and turned into countless green threads that shot forward, arriving in front of the dozen or so spirit insects in an instant.

"Clang, clang" sounds erupted. These green threads slashed onto these beetles as if slashing onto pieces of refined steel. Although they knocked them flying, the green light flashed, but not a single trace was left on these beetles.

These dozen or so spirit insects encountered this attack and immediately let out ear-piercing shrieks, each becoming incomparably angry. Then, they spread their wings, and their figures actually blurred, flickering incessantly above the giant tripod.

Even though those green threads were as fast as lightning, in the next moment they missed one after another, completely unable to slash these spirit insects whose figures had become incomparably strange.

But the Han Li in the distance who released the green threads had a sunken expression. With one hand pinching a magic technique, he flicked lightly at the green thread giant tripod.

After a muffled sound like a bell ringing, countless runes emerged on the surface of the giant tripod, and at the same time, an invisible giant force rushed out from it. Those beetles that had turned into light smoke were forced to reveal their figures again in the next moment, and even though their wings bloomed with dazzling golden light, their flight speed became as slow as a snail crawling.

And those green threads transformed from the small green swords, under the action of this invisible giant force of the giant tripod, not only did not decrease in speed in the slightest, but instead increased in speed like a fish in water.

As the green threads flickered, the entire space above the giant tripod completely turned into a green light screen.

The dozen or so purple-patterned beetles were in the center of the green light screen, like immobile targets, and were struck by hundreds of green threads at the same time.

The sound of metal colliding erupted like a rainstorm, incessantly!

In an instant, countless dazzling green lights flashed on the bodies of the dozen or so spirit insects, making it impossible for people to look directly at them for a time, but the shrieking sounds coming from the green light also became extremely ear-piercing.

The three Han Lis witnessed this scene, but their expressions did not change in the slightest. Two of them each frantically pinched magic techniques, frantically injecting magic power into the giant tripod. The last one had a layer of green Qi covering his face, frantically urging all the green sword threads incessantly.

For a time, in the entire secret room, apart from the "sizzling" sound of breaking through the air and the rumbling explosive sounds, no other sounds could be heard.

I don't know how much time passed, but suddenly the Han Li who released the green sword threads raised his eyes and beckoned with a finger at the void in the distance.

Immediately, those green threads paused, re-transformed into seventy-two small green swords, and shot back in a flash.

The golden halo on top of his head, which was originally expanding and contracting incessantly, just spun around and strangely retracted all the flying swords.

At the same time, the halo itself also "popped" and dissipated and disappeared.

And at the same time, the other two Han Lis also changed their magic techniques, and as spiritual light flashed on their bodies, they each retracted their cultivation techniques.

Above the giant tripod, those purple-patterned beetles that were originally submerged by the green light naturally revealed their figures again.

After such a long period of sword thread tempering, apart from still appearing angry, they did not have the slightest sign of mental wilting, and without the restriction of the giant tripod, they immediately spread their wings and shot toward the three Han Lis separately.

"Freeze!"

The three Han Lis saw this situation and did not have the slightest bit of panic, spitting out a verbal technique!

In an instant, the dozen or so spirit insects heard this sound and actually shook their wings, unable to maintain their balance in mid-air, swaying from side to side.

Almost at the same time, the green giant tripod buzzed, and a white glow rushed out, flickering and rolling all these purple-patterned beetles into it.

These spirit insects, even though full of unwillingness, were still honestly pulled into the giant tripod under the action of that white glow.

Seeing this scene, the "Han Li" who had just released the flying swords let out a light sigh, his expression relaxed, and he murmured in a low voice:

"They are indeed becoming harder and harder to control. It seems that what the secret technique said is correct. Once they grow to this point, the original control method is indeed not enough to control them. It seems that I must perform a re-recognition ceremony. However, having cultivated to the current level, the strength of these spirit insects is about the same, and further devouring is really difficult to carry out. It is really unlikely to cultivate a Bug King."

After muttering to himself, Han Li frowned slightly and fell into contemplation for a while.

Ever since he left the Underworld River place back then, he had been cultivating while searching for various rare materials he encountered on the way. After more than a hundred years, he finally returned to the human race again.

Upon returning to the race, knowing that there was not much time left before the Devil Tribulation broke out, he immediately summoned his three disciples, gave them some instructions, and then went into seclusion again after setting up layers of restrictions.

This time in seclusion, he had only two goals. One was to cultivate hard, using the power of the Underworld River Milk to improve his physique, striving to cultivate his magic power to the great completion of the mid-stage as soon as possible, and then attempt to break through the late-stage bottleneck.

The other was naturally to use the Ephemera Bug-Raising Secret Technique he had already obtained to try to cultivate a Bug King. If he could really cultivate a Gold-Devouring Bug King before the Devil Tribulation broke out, not to mention sweeping across the entire Devil Race, at least he would no longer be in danger of falling.

Therefore, even though he knew that the Supreme Elder of the Ephemera Race had handed this technique to him so easily back then, and there must be some problems with it, he still unhesitatingly planned to give it a try.

In the hundred-plus years since returning to the human race, he had already pondered this newly obtained bug-raising technique countless times, and combined with his original bug-raising experience, plus some unique innate conditions he possessed, he had also summarized a set of methods for cultivating a Bug King.

Most of this method was the same as the Ephemera Race's secret technique, but a small part was completely different. For example, in the Ephemera Race's secret technique, some spirit medicines that should be fed but were fed only once in a long while because they were too rare, Han Li, as long as he felt that this spirit medicine was indeed effective, and relying on having the mysterious small bottle in hand, unhesitatingly fed it to the Gold-Devouring Bug swarm every few days.

Also, because Han Li had the Evil-Warding Divine Thunder in hand, he unhesitatingly used this thunder to replace the other types of thunder-lightning power for tempering the bug bodies mentioned in the Ephemera Race's secret technique...

Of course, whether these changes to the bug-raising technique were really useful was naturally something only Heaven knew. But at least from Han Li's own perspective, the efficiency should be far superior to the Ephemera Race's method.

And sure enough, in a mere two hundred years, apart from keeping nearly ten thousand unmutated original mature Gold-Devouring Bugs as spares, Han Li put all other mutated Gold-Devouring Bugs together and used special methods to stimulate them to devour each other once again.

In order to control these new Gold-Devouring Bugs, whose abilities had greatly increased due to devouring each other, Han Li even had to spend a huge price to have his disciples purchase the green giant tripod treasure before him.

This tripod might not be worth mentioning in terms of fighting enemies, but after being re-refined, it could greatly strengthen his control over the Gold-Devouring Bugs.

So, after he made 120% full preparations and spent more than two hundred years of careful cultivation, he finally had the tens of thousands of mutated Gold-Devouring Bugs devour each other, leaving only the final thirteen purple-patterned Gold-Devouring Bugs in the tripod.

These new Gold-Devouring Bugs, as candidates for the Bug King, each possessed extraordinary divine abilities, and by joining forces, they could even withstand a mid-stage Body Integration cultivator.

However, when Han Li was overjoyed and wanted to let these thirteen spirit insects devour each other further, he suddenly encountered a problem that could not be solved. No matter how he stimulated these spirit insects with various methods, because their strength was equal, no one could do anything to any of the others.
