There was a moment of silence in the room, as if no one could believe that the terrifying insect had died.
Only when the pale green sky was broken open and sunlight shone down on the ground again, allowing everyone to feel its warm glow, did they erupt in a thunderous cheer.
"Master Yun's cultivation has reached the divine level; he is invincible under heaven!"
"May the Cloud Cult Leader live a thousand years and unify the martial world!"
"Master Yun is accomplished in both literature and martial arts; his virtue extends to all living beings!"
...
Everyone offered sincere praise, even though they had been on opposing sides not long ago.
Faced with such terrifying alien insects, all of humanity instinctively united on the same side, and what did their usual grudges matter?
Hearing all sorts of flattery, Zu'an couldn't help but laugh. Everyone on the Demonic Sect was talented and spoke so well. He loved it here.
I just experienced the berserk attack of the Fetal Mother Demon Worm, and I not only learned about some of its special skills, but also some specific data.
Normally, the Fetal Mother Demon Worm is not as strong as the war priest we encountered in Purple Mountain, but as it reproduces more offspring, its power seems to be growing rapidly.
For example, its final attack just now couldn't even withstand the manifested Pure Bell, at which point its power increased by nearly five times.
If it were allowed to reproduce several more offspring, it might not be able to withstand the strain.
I just don't know if there's a limit to how many he can reproduce, or if there's a time limit between each reproduction.
At this moment, he felt warm currents washing over his meridians, and he seemed to become even stronger.
He knew that it was the Devouring Heaven Technique and the devouring power of the Kunpeng that had taken effect. It had just killed the Fetal Mother Demon Worm, which then multiplied and split into a bunch of offspring, including powerful figures like Lu Sanyuan and Chi Fuzi. Finally, they were killed together, which meant that everyone's cultivation had been devoured by it.
He checked the system's level bar and found that he was already at the peak of level 75.
I can't help but wonder, based on the previous growth rate, it should be level 76 by now, so why is it still at level 75?
He vaguely realized that even if he killed and absorbed the cultivation of some powerful enemies, he probably wouldn't be able to break through to level 76. This must be the limitation of this world.
Based on the information obtained from exploring various secret realms, the strength of a world's origin determines the level of cultivation that its practitioners can reach.
Clearly, compared to the previous Daoist secret realm and the demon race's Xia Dynasty secret realm, the origin of this world is weaker now.
No wonder Zhao Hao has been unable to break through to the Earth Immortal realm for decades.
It seems I'll have to break through in a more powerful world from now on.
Suddenly, an idea struck him. He went to the spot where the fetal mother demon worm had just been killed and picked up a ball about the size of a ping-pong ball from the ground. Its surface was uneven, like a tumor.
He could see clearly that the object seemed to have fallen from the womb-mother demon worm.
He was worried that the fetal demon worm was too contagious, and if anything was left behind, it might infect and demonize other normal humans. Therefore, he did not even dare to leave any survivors to interrogate them for information. He wanted to kill them completely as soon as he made his move.
Faced with such destructive power, even the original body of the Fetal Mother Demon Worm was reduced to ashes, but this thing remained unharmed, clearly indicating that it was no ordinary object.
At this moment, Mi Li's excited voice rang out: "This is a fetal gall worm!"
"Is it very precious?" Zuan was taken aback when he noticed her tone.
"Of course it's very precious. Even a thousand Fetal Mother Demon Insects might not be able to condense a single Insect Gall. You can think of this as a kind of divine essence or bloodline aptitude. If a Fetal Mother Demon Insect condenses this, then if it continues to develop normally, it will most likely evolve into a Fetal Mother Demon Insect Emperor and become the leader of the insect race. It's just unexpected that it perished in your hands halfway through."
"This thing is only useful to the insect race?" Zuan was immediately annoyed. He couldn't turn into an insect, let alone become an insect king. Moreover, the appearance of the demonic insect he had seen before was obviously not suitable for keeping as a pet. Therefore, such a precious thing was actually a waste in his hands.
“It’s not entirely useless,” Mi Li thought for a moment and replied, “I’ve heard that when humans use this, it’s like how demonic insects increase their power based on the number of offspring they reproduce. By killing enemies, they can stack the power of their attacks. However, once the attack is released, the gall will shatter and disappear, making it essentially a one-time consumable. It’s not as useful as it is in the hands of those demonic insects.”
“This is still useless,” Zuan clicked his tongue in amazement. “Killing enemies can stack the power of the move. If I keep accumulating this stack and drop it to thousands or tens of thousands of layers, wouldn’t I be invincible? Even if I encounter someone far stronger than me, I can still kill them with this move.”
“You wish,” Mi Li rolled her eyes. “It’s not that killing any enemy will stack your power. You have to kill someone stronger than yourself to successfully stack the power.”
Zuan: "..."
"These conditions are too harsh. If you encounter someone stronger than yourself, you'll be lucky to survive, let alone kill them."
“It’s certainly harsh on ordinary people, but true powerhouses are not afraid of a huge difference in strength. They can always find a way to kill those who are stronger than them,” Mi Li explained. “For example, the war priest you killed in Purple Mountain before, and even this womb-mother demon worm, their strength is actually stronger than yours, but because they are restricted by the world barrier, they cannot fight you in their complete form in this world. So you have already successfully killed beings stronger than you.”
Then Mi Li chuckled again: "Besides, which of the enemies you've encountered over the years wasn't stronger than you?"
Zuan was taken aback. It made sense. For years, he had been fighting against all sorts of powerful beings, just like in those online novels he read in his previous life. What kind of protagonist could he be if he couldn't challenge those who were stronger?
