Chapter 701: Hundred-Insect True Monarch

"You said the person who planted the Gu poison on you is the Hundred-Insect True Monarch?"

"Tell me about this Hundred-Insect True Monarch."

Only Nascent Soul stage cultivators can be called True Monarchs, so this Hundred-Insect True Monarch is a Nascent Soul stage cultivator; Su Fan is not surprised by this.

Because the Gu insect in Wu Yong's body indeed has the aura of a Nascent Soul stage cultivator.

"Senior! This Hundred-Insect True Monarch is a loose cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage; it is said that he has the cultivation of the Nascent Soul fourth layer. This person is an evil cultivator, a bug-controlling cultivator, who has quite a few strange bugs in his hands, and his means are mysterious..."

Wu Yong said everything he knew.

Hundred-Insect True Monarch, a bug-controlling cultivator; the cultivation world is full of strange things. Some people can control beasts, so controlling bugs is naturally no problem.

There is a bug-controlling sect in the Southern Wilderness Continent, also in Wu Guo; it is a Golden Core level sect, and the sect's strength is not small.

This bug-controlling sect, as the name suggests, can drive demonic beasts; of course, the demonic beasts in their hands are not demonic beasts, but spirit beasts, which have been cultivated and transformed by them since they were young.

That bug-controlling is also a similar means.

The bug-controlling sect can drive spirit beasts, which is equivalent to one person possessing two or even three or four combat powers.

For example, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, if he can cultivate a second-grade spirit beast, isn't that one person possessing two Foundation Establishment combat powers? The more spirit beasts cultivated, the stronger the combat power.

Of course, cultivating spirit beasts is not that easy either.

First of all, spirit beasts are all from the beginning, when they are still in the eggshell, the owner of the spirit beast has already planted a mark in this demonic beast egg, and when the other side hatches, it is equivalent to recognizing the master.

But this kind of demonic beast egg, demonic beast egg, is very precious, especially the higher the bloodline of the demonic beast egg, the more expensive the price.

Ordinary cultivators simply cannot afford it, and after hatching, wanting to cultivate it requires even more resources.

The growth of spirit beasts is similar to that of demonic beasts; even with the cultivation of human cultivators, the growth speed might be a bit faster, but compared to human cultivators, it will certainly be much slower.

This is the natural rule between demonic beasts and human cultivators.

Human lifespan is short, while the lifespan of demonic beasts is often several times that of human cultivators, so the growth of the two is naturally different.

So generally, those bug-controlling cultivators, one person being able to cultivate one or two spirit beasts is already very powerful; after all, they still need to cultivate themselves.

Bug-controlling is not worse than bug-controlling.

A Nascent Soul fourth-layer bug-controlling cultivator is certainly not simple, but this person is not from the Southern Wilderness Continent; it seems he came from another continent.

According to Wu Yong's words, he is also not from the Southern Wilderness Continent, but from the Southern Ying Continent; this Southern Ying Continent is the neighbor of the Southern Wilderness Continent.

Both are in the desert land south of the Yuanyang Realm, but this Southern Ying Continent is still south of the Southern Wilderness Continent, and its southernmost part seems to be a dead sea desert.

Wu Yong was originally from a sect in the Southern Ying Continent; the original strength of the sect was not inferior to that Qingmu Sect of Wu Guo, but later the sect had an accident, the Nascent Soul stage Supreme Elder in the sect died, and the sect was jointly destroyed by several other hostile forces.

He took the opportunity to escape.

Su Fan was not surprised by this; in the cultivation world, even a Nascent Soul stage sect is not very safe. Once there is any change, it is said that it will be destroyed.

Even in the Central Plains, those top-tier sects have many that have dominated for a hundred thousand years, and now it is said that they are gone.

It's just that generally, the top-tier sects in the Central Plains have a deep foundation, and they are rarely destroyed. Even if they decline for a while, because of their strong foundation, they will have a day of turning over.

And the sects in other places might be different; if they are destroyed, they might really perish.

Obviously, this Wu Yong is such an unlucky person; not many sect disciples could escape, and even if they escaped, they all fled to various places.

They didn't dare to gather, fearing being hunted down by the hostile forces, and became stray dogs, only able to wander to other cultivation continents.

Wu Yong is lucky; when the sect was attacked, he was not in the mountain gate, so he escaped, but he is also unlucky; not long after, he met that Hundred-Insect True Monarch, and then seeing that he was an alchemist, he was planted with Gu insects.

He was used as a tool for refining pills, and at the same time became the cultivation pool for the other side's Gu insects, becoming nourishment, and in the future, his entire cultivation would also turn into the other side's Gu insect's rations.

It can be said to be miserable.

But fortunately, the other side met him.

This can also be considered a great fortune in misfortune.

Wu Yong's background is extraordinary; at least placed in the Southern Wilderness Continent, he is also a core disciple similar to this Qingmu Sect, and his master is also a Nascent Soul stage cultivator of the sect; it can be said that he is a disciple born with a golden key.

Unfortunately, heaven has unpredictable clouds; the sect was destroyed in one day, and he also became a stray dog.

But this person's background is not simple; the inheritance in his hands is not simple. Su Fan doesn't care about the inheritance on him.

At most, it is some alchemy insights and pill formulas on him, which are useful to the Zixiao Sect; as for the inheritance, it is also what he cultivates himself, and there is not much of it, which is far worse than the Zixiao Sect.

In the Zixiao Sect, there are also cultivation techniques that can reach the Nascent Soul stage, and the five-element attributes are complete.

Taking action to save him is also because he is a fourth-grade mid-tier alchemist, and once he can reach the fourth-grade high-tier in the future, and once he can break through to the Nascent Soul stage, perhaps he can become a fifth-grade alchemist.

That is indeed a great supplement to the Zixiao Sect.

A fifth-grade alchemist, wherever he goes, is a superior, and everywhere will respect him; even in that cultivation holy land where Golden Cores walk everywhere and Purple Mansions are not as good as dogs, a fifth-grade alchemist can also become a guest of honor for many first-class forces.

Placed in this cultivation desert of the Southern Wilderness Continent, that is even more of a rare alchemy master.

Su Fan's current alchemy level is enough to reach the fourth-grade high-tier, but unfortunately, the Zixiao Sect only has one kind of fourth-grade high-tier spirit pill, the Holy Origin Pill.

This Holy Origin Pill is a spirit pill that restores magic power; one spirit pill is enough to allow a late-stage Golden Core cultivator to restore 80% of their magic power.

This pill is absolutely a life-saving thing for many Nascent Soul formation cultivators.

Exceptionally precious; one spirit pill is worth 1.6 million spirit stones.

The higher the grade of the spirit pill, the greater the price; third-grade spirit pills like the Foundation Establishment Pill are only about 20,000.

But for fourth-grade spirit pills, the price starts to increase by multiples.

Ordinary fourth-grade low-tier spirit pills that restore magic power all need tens of thousands of spirit stones, comparable to some fourth-grade artifacts.

And fourth-grade spirit pills that refine magic power are even more than 100,000, and some precious ones are even more than a million.

For example, the outer pill that assists Purple Mansion cultivators in forming the core, that is more than a million.

This Holy Origin Pill is a spirit pill that Golden Core peak cultivators must have for Nascent Soul formation and crossing the tribulation, so it is naturally exceptionally precious.

And wanting to refine this Holy Origin Pill, just many auxiliary spirit herbs need five hundred to a thousand years. ===== CHAPTER 702 =====
