Chapter 255: Evolution of the Myriad-Change Silkworm into a Five-Elements Butterfly?
"Then secretly use the Thunder Light Butterfly to finish off these Two-Winged Black Centipedes."
"Space Pelican, you go."
Ye Bai suddenly thought of something; the Space Pelican currently seems to still be at the Fourth Rank.
It seems a bit underpowered against the Two-Winged Black Centipedes.
"Forget it, Myriad-Change Silkworm, you go instead; turn into a Thunder Light Butterfly Clone."
A wisp of electric arc radiated from the Myriad-Change Silkworm's body.
In the blink of an eye, it transformed into a Thunder Light Butterfly.
The Myriad-Change Silkworm's body size was a circle larger than the clone's.
Just as it fiercely flapped its wings, violent lightning fell from the sky, shocking the Two-Winged Black Centipedes until their bodies trembled and they foamed at the mouth.
The thin-as-cicada-wings wings on their bodies all turned into ashes.
With the Poison Dragon Butterfly acting as bait, there were two Thunder Light Butterflies behind it constantly dealing finishing blows.
After a period of time, the ground was covered with the corpses of Two-Winged Black Centipedes.
"These are good things; they are highly nourishing."
Ye Bai put on a pair of gloves as thin as cicada wings.
These gloves were woven from the insect silk spat out by the Myriad-Change Silkworm.
They possess the ability to isolate toxins.
Ye Bai was seen twisting off the heads of the Two-Winged Black Centipedes and removing the charred wings.
Upon seeing this, the Sunflower Emperor split off a clone and learned from Ye Bai's example to process the Two-Winged Black Centipedes.
Ye Bai only stopped after tidying up a basketful.
"Phew, this amount should be enough."
"Space Pelican, the pot."
"Nether Wolf, fire."
"Sunflower Emperor, water."
The three Pet Beasts cooperated with great tacit understanding.
The Space Pelican opened its large mouth, and an iron-cast cauldron flew out from within.
This cauldron was as large as the ones used in cafeterias to cook food for the masses.
The Sunflower Emperor poured water out from its petals.
The Nether Wolf sprayed flames from its nostrils.
Ye Bai then threw the processed bodies of the Two-Winged Black Centipedes into the cauldron to stew.
The water quickly began to boil, making a bubbling sound.
"That's about right."
"This is the first time I've been able to purge the toxicity of the Two-Winged Black Centipedes."
"Dahui, pour out the water in the pot."
"Sunflower Emperor, repeat the action of adding water."
"Nether Wolf, continue to bring the water to a boil."
Ye Bai repeated the instructions, and after repeating this five times, seeing that the bodies of the Two-Winged Black Centipedes had all become as white as jade, he finally nodded.
"Doing it to this extent is about enough."
"This now means the toxicity of the Two-Winged Black Centipedes has been purged."
The Myriad-Change Silkworm sneakily stuck out its tongue, wanting to curl up a Two-Winged Black Centipede to taste it.
Ye Bai casually picked up a wooden stick and gave the Myriad-Change Silkworm's tongue a heavy smack.
Ah.
The Myriad-Change Silkworm's eyes widened, and a stinging pain came from its tongue.
"Stop pretending there; I didn't use much force."
"You'll recover from this minor injury in the blink of an eye."
"These Two-Winged Black Centipedes aren't cooked yet; if you eat them now, they won't have any flavor at all."
"Endure it a little longer."
"Sunflower Emperor, pour the oil."
Golden-yellow liquid was poured out from the Sunflower Emperor's petals.
This was all high-quality sunflower seed oil, which Ye Bai had added spices to and boiled.
"Nether Wolf, continue to spray fire."
Ye Bai picked up a tree branch and inserted it into the oil pot.
After a series of bubbles appeared around the branch, he had Dahui throw the boiled Two-Winged Black Centipedes into the oil pot.
A crisp sound of deep-frying appeared.
A rich fragrance emerged, and the Myriad-Change Silkworm's saliva was about to flow out.
"Don't rush, don't rush."
Ye Bai watched the Two-Winged Black Centipedes rising and falling in the oil pot and shook his head.
At this time, the Sunflower Emperor had already quickly used surrounding branches to weave a strainer.
"Alright, Sunflower Emperor, scoop them out."
"Sprinkle salt, pepper, and chili powder into the centipede meat."
The Sunflower Emperor quickly rolled the strainer, and like Salt Bae, sprinkled down a large amount of salt, pepper, and chili powder.
It ensured that every part of the centipede meat was coated in salt, pepper, and chili powder.
A mouth-watering fragrance rushed toward them.
The Thousand-Change Silkworm could no longer wait.
It used its tongue to roll up a pile directly and put it into its mouth to chew vigorously.
The moment the food entered its mouth, the Thousand-Change Silkworm froze.
A rich flavor danced between its lips and teeth; this centipede meat tasted like marinated chicken and was extremely tender.
It seemed to be tightly bound by many two-winged black centipedes coated in salt and pepper.
No, no, it couldn't stop, it absolutely couldn't stop.
The Thousand-Change Silkworm had only tasted one bite, and by the time it came to its senses, only a small portion of the centipede meat remained in the Zhua.
The Nether Wolf chewed in large mouthfuls, its eyes fixed firmly on the Zhua, a classic case of eating from the bowl while looking at the pot.
The Space Pelican had long since stored a large portion of the centipede meat into its space pouch, pulling out a piece to chew on whenever it wanted to eat.
Even the Sunflower Emperor, a plant-type Pet Beast that could live well just by relying on sunlight, couldn't help but toss a few pieces of centipede meat into its mouth. Dahui grabbed a handful with one claw, eating until its mouth was dripping with oil.
Except for the True Dragon Spirit, which remained unmoved, the centipede meat was being snatched up like crazy.
Looking at the empty Zhua, the many Pet Beasts looked at each other.
It wasn't enough to eat; what should they do if they still wanted more?
That, of course, meant starting another pot.
After being wined and dined, Ye Bai sat on the back of the Space Pelican and began to search for the Butterfly Sacred Valley.
Since it was the Butterfly Sacred Valley, it was certainly a place that only butterfly-type Exotic Beasts could possibly find.
However, the thing Ye Bai lacked the least was butterfly-type Exotic Beasts.
Thus, the Thousand-Change Silkworm transformed into the appearance of a Thunder Light Butterfly and flew in the lead.
It sensed a faint, lingering call and instinctively flew in one direction.
At this moment, Ye Bai was pondering a question.
Since the Thousand-Change Silkworm could already transform into a Thunder Light Butterfly.
Could the Clones split off by the Thousand-Change Silkworm evolve into Five Elements Butterflies, and subsequently into Five Elements Sacred Butterflies?
After all, the Thousand-Change Silkworm did possess the evolutionary path to evolve into a Five Elements Butterfly.
And its Mimicry could simulate all Exotic Beasts that evolved from Baibian Can, Thousand-Change Silkworm, and Thousand-Change Silkworm.
Now that the Thousand-Change Silkworm could evolve into a Thunder Light Butterfly, it meant that the Clones should also be able to evolve.
As for the Five Elements Butterfly cubs in the Butterfly Sacred Valley, he would just catch them and take them for his grand-teacher to study.
The Thousand-Change Silkworm, transformed into a Thunder Light Butterfly, suddenly shivered all over.
Why did its body suddenly tremble? Was its body weak?
Such a thought suddenly appeared in the mind of the Thousand-Change Silkworm.
Five Elements Butterfly Secret Realm, Imperial Capital Research Institute branch.
At this time, Su Qingxian had already received the news that the Five Elements Butterflies they had captured had laid Pet Beast Eggs.
She looked happily at these Pet Beast Eggs, which were as crystalline as jade; inside, a chubby body seemed to be wriggling.
Through Su Qingxian's research, the Five Elements Butterfly was a brand-new species of butterfly-type Exotic Beast, and its wings were colorful.
Like glazed glass, they glowed with five different colors under the sunlight.
It was also with the help of Zhang Dashan that Su Qingxian had managed to capture one male and one female Five Elements Butterfly.
Around these two Five Elements Butterflies, there were also butterfly-type Exotic Beasts of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth attributes providing protection.
Now that the Five Elements Butterflies had finally laid Pet Beast Eggs, this couldn't help but make Su Qingxian feel a little excited.
Under the stimulation of heavenly treasures, the Pet Beast Eggs cracked one after another, and white, chubby worms appeared.
Su Qingxian's expression suddenly stiffened; why did this thing look more and more like a Baibian Can?
Could she be dreaming?
After checking again and again, Su Qingxian recognized the reality; not to mention, this thing was indeed a Baibian Can.
In other words, the cubs of the Five Elements Butterfly she had been working so hard to find were just Baibian Can.
The corners of Su Qingxian's mouth twitched; so after all her fussing for a long time, the only conclusion she reached was that the cubs laid by the Five Elements Butterfly were Baibian Can.
She was suddenly speechless.
Baibian Can could be grabbed by the handful on Blue Star; was there any need to run here to study them? Was she just bored and looking for trouble?
Now, there was an urgent need to study how a Baibian Can evolved into a Five Elements Butterfly.
It was just that Su Qingxian did not know that these Baibian Can possessed a jade-like radiance between their brows.
In other words, these Baibian Can were actually the even rarer Thousand-Change Silkworm.
At this time, Zhang Dashan walked into the Laboratory.
"Qingxian, congratulations, the Five Elements Butterfly cubs have been born."
At this moment, Zhang Dashan's gaze fell upon the Thousand-Change Silkworm.
His expression also stiffened, and then he rubbed his eyes, looking incredulous: "Qingxian, am I getting old and dim-sighted? Why do I see so many Baibian Can?"
"You didn't bring Baibian Can into the Five Elements Butterfly Secret Realm, did you?"
Zhang Dashan smiled awkwardly.
"You didn't see wrong; these are indeed Baibian Can, and they were also born from the Five Elements Butterflies."
"This is a major discovery; the Five Elements Butterfly actually evolved from a Baibian Can."
"I worked hard for two months, only to reach this conclusion."
Su Qingxian was simply torn between laughter and tears.
"By the way, have you discovered the location of the Demon Seal?"
Su Qingxian asked suddenly.
Zhang Dashan shook his head with a bitter smile.
"This Five Elements Butterfly Secret Realm is quite large; I haven't discovered it yet despite my rash searching."
"However, I have already deployed Hellfire Clones in numerous places."
"Once a demon appears, I will immediately notice it and teleport over via the Hellfire."
"Then I can follow the clues to find the location of the Demon Seal."
"Rest assured, Qingxian, as long as I have this demon's corpse, I can apply to the higher-ups to allocate personnel and reinforce the seal."
Su Qingxian looked toward the sky outside the window.
At this moment, the sky was filled with twinkling stars.
"I hope so; these are troubled times, and I just hope nothing happens."
Su Qingxian sighed deeply and said.
To be honest, her brow had been twitching wildly since just a moment ago, and she felt a faint sense of unease in her heart, as if something bad might happen.
But the Five Elements Butterfly Secret Realm was extremely important, and if possible, Su Qingxian did not want to leave this Secret Realm.
"As for the Western Research Institute, I will let someone else fill in for me for a while."
"The Demon Seal is the top priority right now."
"Qingxian, you should focus on your research with peace of mind."
"I won't let anyone disturb you, not even a demon."
Zhang Dashan said resolutely.
"To be honest, I don't have any leads, so I might need to ask Xiao Xue and Ye Bai to help me."
"Xiao Xue is an expert in researching the Baibian Can, and Ye Bai also has a deep understanding of the Baibian Can."
