Chapter 182 - 17 Lifespan Experiment_i



Without a doubt.

In front of a Foundation Establishment cultivator, even the most powerful Qi Refining stage cultivator is as negligible as a clay rooster or pottery dog, unable to withstand a single blow.

Especially when this Zhu Jianyi is actually quite ordinary among Qi Refining cultivators.

Nevertheless, at this moment, casually using his mana to effortlessly seize his opponent, Wang Ba, he felt a sense of satisfaction he had never experienced before.

“So this is what it feels like to crush an enemy?”

A sweet taste of victory lingers in Wang Ba’s mind.

Defeating Qi Refining stage cultivators as a Foundation Establishment cultivator, is something other cultivators would be ashamed to mention.

However, since he started his cultivation journey, Wang Ba has scarcely faced any enemies, never once defeating an opponent single-handedly.

It’s all thanks to the Spirit Beast.

Moreover, being a heresy cultivator in the Tianmen Cult, he had always been cautious and treaded on thin ice.

Never did he experience the thrill of controlling the clouds and rain, or the sense of awe and power that other cultivators have felt.

Now, with a mere wave of his hand, he can easily seize a Stage VIII Qi Refining cultivator. He finally understood why many heresy cultivators in the Cult would rather be Rob Cultivators than stay in the Tianmen Cult.

Truth to be told, after experiencing the joy of bullying rogue cultivators outside, it’s hard to go back and bow down to the people of the Tianmen Cult. Sensing this change in his mindset, he immediately calms his mind and dispels the distracting thoughts.

At present, he cannot leave the Tianmen Cult.

Though he doesn’t want to submit, he keeps Zhao Feng’s words about ‘Mutiny of Dragon-Snake’ in mind.

The time is not yet right.

Now, he can only abide by his status and wait for the right opportunity.

The flurry of thoughts in his mind is complex, yet momentary.

Extending his hand, he summons a large hand with his mana alone and presses Zhu Jianyi, who has realized the situation and is attempting to escape, to the ground.

At the same time, twenty-eight Iris Invisible Needles pierced through several low-class disciples who were with Zhu Jianyi and who hadn’t had the chance to escape upon realizing the situation.

Wang Ba didn’t immediately kill them, he merely struck down their Mana to prevent them from sending messages.

“Ex… Excellent senior!”

Zhu Jianyi, who had lost all his composure, wore an astonished and terrified expression, far removed from his previously righteous demeanor in the Ghost

Market.

Straining his neck, he stammers:

“Junior was blind, blind! Please spare me senior! My family has plenty of assets that I am willing to offer senior!”

“My master is right in Jinhe City, and 1 am well-regarded. He will surely reward you. I beg you, please do not kill me…”

“There’s no need to use him to threaten me.”

Wang Ba looked down at him coldly and said:

“I’ll ask, you’ll answer. Rest assured, if you lie, I’ll ask those juniors later. If your answers differ, you know the result.”

“Yes yes yes!”

Upon hearing Wang Ba’s words, Zhu Jianyi, who was pinned down, hastily nodded his head in agreement.

Wang Ba didn’t exhibit any mercy. He wasn’t sure what use the Yin Devouring Insect had, but its presence in the pills was clearly no good sign.

Zhu Jianyi probably wasn’t a kind person either.

While Wang Ba himself wasn’t any major Saint.

But when dealing with such people, he has no remorse or guilt.

“What is the purpose of this Yin Devouring Insect?”

He posed the question that he was most curious about first.

Taken aback by the question, Zhu Jianyi hesitated before he realized the pressure on him was increasingly becoming greater and exclaimed promptly, “I’ll talk! I’ll talk!”

He then spoke rapidly: “The Yin Devouring Insect is my master’s destined Spiritual Insect. He splits them into Mother and Child Insects. The Mother Insect only has one, while the Child Insect has ninety-nine. Once the Child Insects are ingested and refined by cultivators who are unaware, they don’t die. Instead, they latch onto the cultivator’s mana and parasitize the cultivator’s Dantian, growing gradually with the help of the cultivator’s mana. After reaching maturity, they consume the cultivator’s mana, blood and essence, Yuan Qi, and return to the Mother Insect which is then nourished. They then revert to larvae again, and my master… can also absorb a part of the essence.

“My role is to help my master distribute the child insects.”

What a wicked cultivation method!

Wang Ba inwardly marvelled.

In other words, if everything goes smoothly, these Spiritual Insects will devour ninety-nine cultivators every so often. Afterwards, they will return to the Mother Insect and Master Lin carrying the essence of these cultivators’ bodies.

With such means of cultivation, it’s no wonder that Master Lin’s cultivation progresses rapidly.

“Does this Yin Devouring Insect have any drawbacks?”

Wang Ba couldn’t help but ask.

Moreover, this Yin Devouring Insect’s method of cultivation, no matter how evil, seemed too overpowered.

Theoretically, so long as there are enough rogue cultivators to deceive and intake, Master Lin’s cultivation level can consistently improve until he steps into the Golden Core Realm or even the Nascent Soul Realm…

If this is true, then the various traditions of the Tianmen Cult seem to pale before these Spiritual Insects.

Zhu Jianyi hesitated. Seeing the cultivators collapsed not far away, the few most likely unable to withstand Wang Ba’s interrogation, he gritted his teeth and said:

“Of course there are!”

“Aside from aiding in cultivation, the Yin Devouring Insect has no combat abilities. Furthermore, if the child insects feed the mother insect too frequently, the mother insect will suppress the owner once she gets stronger. And if it absorbs too much at once, it will bring about undesirable changes.

Wang Ba slightly nodded. At last, it made sense.

If such a self-advancing and nearly transcendent cultivation method doesn’t have some limitations, it would indeed be irrational.

Then he asked the question that he really cared about:

“If 1 want to enter your Ghost Market, where you exchange Second-Class artifacts, are there any specific requirements?”
