Chapter 163: Gu Insects Advance One After Another, Third-tier Infatuation Gu

"Not bad."

Zhou Sui felt very satisfied that his lifespan had increased to six hundred years.

Aside from the breakthrough in lifespan brought about by his own rise in realm, the most important factor was the help of the Dragon Elephant Gu.

Due to the power of the Dragon Elephant Gu, he had broken through the limits of his lifespan.

And this was merely the beginning.

As the Dragon Elephant Gu tempered him time and again, his lifespan would likely continue to increase; this was not the limit.

After all, the lifespan of the legendary divine dragon far exceeds that of ordinary beings; it is simply incomparable to short-lived species like Humans.

"The power of the Gu Insects has also increased; they have actually all collectively advanced to the Second-tier realm."

Zhou Sui stroked his chin.

To tell the truth, for him, the improvement of the Gu Insects was the most important thing.

The power possessed by every single Gu Insect was a trump card.

Clearly, the rise in his cultivation had also driven the rise in the power of the Gu Insects on his body.

The two could be said to complement each other.

"After each type of Gu Insect advanced to the Second-tier, their abilities have all improved to varying degrees."

Zhou Sui sensed a vast amount of information being infused into the depths of his sea of consciousness; this was all information transmitted to him by each Gu Insect after it had advanced to the Second-tier.

At the same time, it was convenient for him to understand the current situation of every Gu Insect.

First was the Clone Gu; after advancing to Second-tier Low-grade, it could now gestate more clones.

Previously, at the Qi Refining Ninth Layer, it could basically gestate nine clones; now at the Second-tier Low-grade realm, it could already gestate eighteen clones, basically doubling the amount.

If it could reach Second-tier Middle-grade, that would be thirty-six clones; at Second-tier High-grade, it would be seventy-two clones.

It could be said to be a doubling growth.

Of course, if it were only this, it wouldn't count for much.

More importantly, every clone it gestated could learn various skills, techniques, and the hundred arts of immortal cultivation on its own.

Basically, the content and insights learned by the clones could all be transmitted to the main body.

Although the efficiency was not as good as the main body, if one persevered, the content that could be learned would be quite substantial; by then, his main body would only need to focus on cultivation.

As for the various knowledge of the hundred arts of immortal cultivation, he could just leave it to his clones to handle.

"If that's the case, wouldn't I be equivalent to having eighteen extra brains that can help me learn various knowledge simultaneously?" Zhou Sui was very excited.

Clearly, the function of the clones was not just to help him gather intelligence or go on adventures.

At the same time, they could also help him learn.

It could be said to have infinite wonderful uses.

To tell the truth, there was simply too much he needed to learn; if he had a few more clones helping him learn, his learning efficiency would also accelerate and receive a crazy boost.

"It just so happens that the Book Gu has also advanced to the Second-tier realm; if combined with the Second-tier Clone Gu, it would be like adding wings to a tiger."

Zhou Sui clenched his fists.

Clearly, the Book Gu had also advanced to the Second-tier realm.

Besides the fact that the internal capacity of the Book Gu was larger—expanded a hundredfold compared to before—allowing it to store massive amounts of data, it had also birthed a more important ability, which was Knowledge Imparting.

Through the power of the Book Gu, he could impart his own knowledge data to others, helping them memorize various knowledge and thereby reaching the level of photographic memory.

Originally, he could only utilize the power of the Book Gu for his own use.

But now, any knowledge recorded by the Book Gu could be imparted to others.

This meant that his several Dao Companions could also enjoy such benefits.

Just like him, they could all memorize a vast amount of immortal cultivation knowledge.

Presumably, this could also help his several Dao Companions rapidly improve their cultivation and enhance their understanding of the Dao.

"The Wine Insect, Dragon Elephant Gu, Golden Light Myriad Poison Gu, Gold-Eating Insect, Dream Soul Gu, and others have all advanced to the Second-tier realm."

Zhou Sui stroked his chin.

Clearly, the abilities of these five Gu Insects had also undergone tremendous changes.

The Wine Insect, having advanced to the Second-tier, could now brew Second-tier Spirit Wine.

One must know that a pot of Second-tier Spirit Wine was worth at least five Middle-grade Spirit Stones, ten times that of First-tier Spirit Wine.

If he could brew Second-tier Spirit Wine in large quantities, the speed of making money would be like a banknote printing machine.

It could be said that the Second-tier Wine Insect was a banknote printing machine on his person.

As for the Dragon Elephant Gu that had advanced to the Second-tier, it still surged with a wisp of mysterious blood energy once a month, but the effect this wisp of blood energy brought to his body had also increased by more than ten times.

This also made the tempering effect on his body even more formidable.

There was also the Golden Light Myriad Poison Gu that had advanced to the Second-tier; it could now produce Second-tier deadly poison, and even releasing a tiny bit of this poison could kill a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

It could even threaten a Golden Core Cultivator.

Even if it couldn't kill a Golden Core Cultivator, it would still cause them a certain degree of trouble.

As for the Gold-Eating Insect that had advanced to the Second-tier, its abilities were naturally even more powerful; whether in defense or attack power, both had received a certain degree of improvement.

The current Gold-Eating Insects were still staying in the original Red Gold Mine, and basically, one thousand had been gestated.

It could be said that they basically formed a Gold-Eating Insect swarm.

If they were to move out collectively, they could absolutely slaughter numerous Foundation Establishment Cultivators and become an unprecedented insect plague.

However, Zhou Sui only had one hundred on his person right now; the other nine hundred were still being kept in the Red Gold Mine.

After all, the appetite of over a thousand Gold-Eating Insects was simply too large.

If he really kept them by his side, he was afraid he wouldn't be able to afford to feed them.

As for the Dream Soul Gu, it had already advanced to the Second-tier before, so the extent of its evolution this time was not particularly large.

However, the most astonishing degree of evolution was that of the Infatuation Gu.

This is because the power of the Infatuation Gu has now advanced to the Third-tier level.

"Third-tier Infatuation Gu."

Zhou Sui sensed the Infatuation Gu deep within his mind; its body was now covered in dense, pink Runes, as if its entire body were wrapped in endless affection and love.

Pink aura permeated from its body at every moment.

This pink aura surged into his limbs and bones, flowing into every corner of his body.

Thereby causing earth-shattering changes to his body and appearance.

And this was the ability born from the Third-tier Infatuation Gu—the Heavenly Charm Physique.

Now, the Infatuation Gu could release mysterious power at every moment, constantly remodeling Zhou Sui's physique.

Thereby causing his body to release a unique scent.

This scent was male pheromones.

And this scent had no odor; it could not be detected by any sense of smell.

But it could be perceived.

Once a female cultivator stood by his side, she would unconsciously smell a soul-captivating scent, causing her mind to be greatly shaken.

After smelling this scent, the female cultivator's favorability toward him would greatly increase.

It was as if she had fallen in love.

Of course, this power would not increase any of his combat strength; it was purely to increase his personal charm.

However, this charm did not take effect all at once, but rather subtly and gradually.

The longer one stayed by his side, the more one would feel the charm on him.

Even men of the same sex were the same; they would involuntarily develop a favorable impression of him.

Even his every move would radiate immense attraction.
