Chapter 786

Because its entire body has eight parts that are precious materials for pill-refining, it earned its name!

Its numbers are scarce, even exceeding the "Jade White Treasure Rabbit," which is likewise a culinary treasure-medicine.

And the characteristic of the Eight-Treasure Centipede is that it feeds on a cultivator's flesh and blood, and drinks primordial force as its beverage.

But if the cultivator's cultivation base is too high, it will easily cause the Eight-Treasure Centipede within the body to be unable to digest, leading to being stuffed to death alive.

Or else it will produce a rejection reaction, dying on the spot.

Therefore, the usual rearing method is to proceed step by step, feeding the Eight-Treasure Centipede's eggs into an infant's body, allowing them to form a symbiotic relationship.

Only in this way can the Eight-Treasure Centipede grow up normally.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yan shook his head again, muttering to himself:

"But this method is clearly unsuitable for use on Zhou Yan. Zhou Yan's pill Dao aptitude is outstanding, and he is also a successor of the Medicine King Valley. If one wishes to obtain an adult Eight-Treasure Centipede as a medicinal ingredient, any other person would suffice; there is absolutely no need for Zhou Yan himself, unless......"

Jiang Yan's expression gradually grew solemn.

He suddenly recalled that his Master had once said.

If one wishes to maximize the medicinal efficacy of the Eight-Treasure Centipede.

One must have the consumer use the bloodline of a close kin as a guide.

Thereafter, when the Eight-Treasure Centipede reaches adulthood, it can burst forth from the body and be used by oneself!

And the higher the symbiote's aptitude and cultivation base, the better the quality of the Eight-Treasure Centipede within the body.

"Looking at it this way, this Valley Master of Medicine King Valley, who is renowned far and wide for his benevolence and righteousness, is not as simple as he appears on the surface........"

The Valley Master of Medicine King Valley is a Heaven-Man realm powerhouse, and also Zhou Yan's father.

Father and son spend day and night together.

How could he not know of the abnormalities on his own son's body?

Therefore, Jiang Yan now dared to assert that there is still a grand scheme hidden on the other party!

No wonder he dispatches a Myriad Manifestations realm powerhouse to protect him at all times.

After all, Zhou Yan himself is a genuine, solid treasure-medicine......

But all of this holds no meaning whatsoever for the current Jiang Yan.

He gathered his thoughts, looked again at the Eight-Treasure Centipede before him, and murmured:

"Even though the differing bloodlines cause the medicinal efficacy to not be maximized, based on its own merits alone, it still counts as a great tonic medicine of Heaven-grade quality!"
