Chen Zhiqing slowly wiped the black blood from the corner of his mouth. The unique taste spread in his mouth, and he actually found it quite good.
After all, he possessed the blood of a demigod, and this power surged within his body, bringing a strange sensation.
His scarlet eyes were filled with evil, the red color like a burning flame, revealing a dangerous aura.
He stared at the rolling purple lightning in his hand, its powerful force pulsating in his palm.
He curled his lips into a wicked smile.
“My life essence, with this, I can take Pear Blossom back.”
He murmured softly, his smile deepening.
In his heart, pear blossoms were his only concern, and he was willing to give anything to be with them.
At this moment, he could feel that his body was still shedding its skin.
He imagined that by the time he returned, the molting process would be complete.
At that time, he can directly cook the pears and peanuts into a cooked rice dish.
This thought stirred a surge of heat within him, and his eyes became even more fervent.
He seemed to already see a beautiful future, surrounded by pear blossoms, far away from this world full of danger and strife.
However, he also knew that the road wouldn't be so smooth.
But he was not afraid at all, and he held the purple lightning tightly in his hand, as if he had grasped the key to destiny.
"I can't die, I want to live forever, there must be some other way."
Yunzhi muttered to herself in the dimly lit room, her eyes revealing a strong will to survive and unwavering determination.
She frantically searched the room for ancient books, as if looking for a lifeline in a vast ocean.
Finally, an ancient book appeared before her eyes: "The Secret Teachings of the Gu Master".
The antique cover seemed to exude a mysterious aura, attracting her gaze.
She reached out her trembling hand and slowly picked up the book, as if holding the most precious treasure in the world.
My heart was racing uncontrollably, a mix of nervousness and anticipation.
Opening the book, densely packed words come into view.
Those ancient characters, seemingly bearing the marks of time, tell mysterious stories about witch doctors.
Yunzhi read intently, not missing a single detail.
She memorized every detail about how to become a Gu master and how to refine those magical Gu, her eyes sometimes focused, sometimes sparkling with excitement.
As Yunzhi delved deeper into her reading, she felt as if she had entered a completely new world.
This world is full of mysterious forces and unknown challenges.
She knew that this path might be fraught with danger, but she was willing to take the risk for the sake of immortality.
She gripped the ancient book tightly in her hands, as if she were holding her own destiny in her hands.
In this unpredictable world, she will surely find her own path to immortality with the help of this ancient book.
Yunzhi disappeared, and Tao Lao settled down with the remaining clansmen, becoming a famous traditional Chinese medicine practitioner.
In the blink of an eye, another ten years have quietly passed.
The rosewood has gradually grown taller and is now as graceful as a tender willow in spring.
She also started menstruating, marking her transition from a girl to a young woman.
She and her grandmother have spent twenty long years in this cemetery.
Her mother also underwent tremendous changes in the past twenty years.
Two horns grew from its head, curved and exuding a mysterious aura.
His skin was so white it looked as if he had applied powder, almost devoid of any color, making him appear particularly eerie in the dimly lit cemetery.
If it weren't for her slightly heaving chest, Ma Lihua and her grandmother would have thought she was dead.
Today, as usual, Ma Lihua went to the coffin in the cemetery to visit her mother.
As she approached the coffin, she was surprised to find that her mother had changed again.
Her figure seems to have improved, with a shapely figure, as if it had been carefully sculpted.
Her mother lay quietly in the coffin, her appearance both beautiful and strange.
Ma Lihua stared blankly, her heart filled with countless doubts and worries.
She didn't know why her mother had changed so much, nor did she know what these changes meant.
Ma Lihua reached out her slightly warm hand and gently touched her mother's face.
The cold touch on her mother's face made her heart tighten.
Ma Lihua tried hard to recall, attempting to search her memory for any gods of the Asura race in the past divine realm.
She frowned, her eyes focused yet confused, various images flashing through her mind, but she couldn't recall a single one.
The mysterious Asura race seems to have been buried by the dust of history, making them elusive and difficult to fathom.
"Pear Blossom, dinner's ready."
Ma Linghua's voice rang out from outside, breaking Ma Lihua's reverie.
Ma Lihua instantly put on a mask of pain; in recent years, her grandmother's cooking had become increasingly unpalatable.
She sighed helplessly, yet she could not disobey her grandmother's call.
"Grandma, I'm here," she called out towards the door, her voice filled with surprise.
Meanwhile, in the next room, Chi Huan was intently practicing with Gu worms.
Those tiny worms seemed to come alive in his hands, wriggling incessantly.
What Ma Lihua and her companions never expected was that they were actually in a valley of insects. This valley, hidden beneath the cemetery, was full of mystery and danger.
Countless venomous insects thrive here, forming a unique ecosystem.
Ma Lihua's steps toward the door were somewhat heavy; she had no idea what kind of unpalatable meal awaited her.
Chi Huan, however, was immersed in the world of Gu worms and completely unaware of the outside world.
This Insect Valley seems like a forgotten corner, full of unknown secrets.
