Chapter 47: South Vietnam Gu Worm (Please collect and read)
Zhonghe Hall.

The dusty Shen Xing walked in quickly, knelt down and said, "I am Shen Xing, paying my respects to His Majesty. Long live the Emperor!"

"I love you!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Compared to the last time we met, he looked much older and more tired.

But his eyes are still bright and there seem to be some injuries on his body?
half year ago.

Through Concubine Shu, she learned from Prime Minister Yang that there might be cultivators in Nanyue County. In addition, she needed officials and noble families in Nanyue County to offer poisonous insects, so she specially sent Shen Xing to lead people to Nanyue County on official business.

In addition to Shen Xing, Ma Jinwu also went deep into the martial arts world to look for traces of the Mayfly Tower.

Unfortunately, there is still no news about the Mayfly Tower until now.

However, Shen Xing has already returned from Nanyue County.

I don’t know what good news he will bring?

Zheng Yi asked directly: "Did your Excellency find any traces of the immortal cultivators during your trip to Nanyue County?"

"Your Majesty, I have done my duty!"

"What do you mean? Have you found traces of the immortal cultivators?"

Zheng Yi's expression changed and he sat up straight subconsciously.

Shen Xing said: "Your Majesty, I went to Nanyue to collect precious poisonous insects for your Majesty, and then I met the Nanyue tribe's high priest, Elder Shen Yue."

"Not only did Elder Shen Yue give me a precious Gu worm, he also gave me the secret method of the Nanyue people to raise Gu worms."

Zheng Yi asked curiously: "One?"

"According to Elder Chen Yue, this insect is called the 'Moonlight' mother insect. It can grow by absorbing moonlight and can reproduce by itself to form a clan."

"After the ritual is successfully performed, the Moonlight Gu can form special internal force in the human body, absorbing the essence of the moon to form internal force with special properties, which can be released to attack the enemy."

"Moreover, the Moonlight Gu can also fly out and attack on its own under the command of the priest."

"Moonlight Gu? Absorbing the essence of the moon? So magical? Where is this Gu?"

"I have handed this position over to the eunuch outside the palace."

"Send it up!"

Soon, Xiao Guizi walked in quickly holding a wooden tray.

On the wooden tray, there is an exquisite wooden box.

Zheng Yi opened it and found that there was indeed a special insect inside.

This insect is shaped like a crescent moon, and its appearance is crystal clear, like a piece of blue crystal.

The overall look looks like a coiled blue caterpillar.

Next to it, there was a booklet. I opened it and took a casual look. It contained the precautions for raising this Moonlight Gu.

"Ok?"

He soon discovered something was wrong.

The secret recipe for raising and cultivating the Moonlight Gu contained several paragraphs that were very similar to the "Dongyun Spirit Insect Blood Sacrifice Method" in his mind.

In other words, it is the content extended from the "Dongyun Spirit Insect Blood Sacrifice"!

Could it be that Nanyue County is indeed related to the Ephemeral Sect?

Training spiritual insects and raising poisonous insects?
Zheng Yi suppressed his doubts and asked, "What else? Cultivation matters?"

"Your Majesty, according to what High Priest Shen Yue said, more than 30 years ago, the High Priest of the Black Yue Tribe spent a lot of resources and the lives of his tribe members to cultivate an immortal Gu insect called 'Aphid'."

“Who would have thought that on the day of its completion, a figure shrouded in black mist suddenly appeared and snatched the Gu worm away. He also slaughtered hundreds of Black Yue clan warriors, and even the Black Moon clan’s high priest was killed. The Black Yue clan then began to decline.”

"Later, they occasionally spotted this person in the Nanyue County territory, but he disappeared soon after. Now, it has been nearly ten years and no one has found him."

"Because this happened only 30 years ago, there are still many people who experienced it firsthand, and we learned about it from their own mouths."

"The Black Moon Clan's chief priest seems to have mastered magical arts and can control poisonous insects, but unfortunately he is no match for the man in black."

"The Black Yue tribe? The chief priest of the Black Yue tribe?"

Zheng Yi asked curiously, "Is it the tribe that ruled Nanyue County thirty years ago?"

"Yes!"

Most of the people living in Nanyue County are members of the Nanyue ethnic group, who are divided into dozens of different clans, large and small.

More than 30 years ago, the strongest clan was the Black Yue clan.

But for some reason, hundreds of strong men from the upper echelons of the Black Yue tribe suddenly died overnight, which gave the White Yue tribe an opportunity. Together with the Dayu court, they captured the Black Yue tribe's base camp and occupied the entire Nanyue County.

Unfortunately, until now, there are still remnants of the Black Yue tribe hiding in the deep mountains and forests of Nanyue County, fighting against the Dayu court and the White Yue tribe.

The so-called Baiyue tribe refers to the Nanyue people who surrendered to Dayu.

Today's High Priest Shen Yue is the High Priest of the Baiyue Tribe, and also the most prestigious and powerful priest in the Nanyue County area.

"According to High Priest Shen Yue's guess, the mysterious person who snatched the stem borer aphids is most likely a cultivator hiding in Nanyue County!"

Shen Xing said: "Its overall strength is about the same as that of a Xiantian Realm warrior, but it has many tricks. It is best at driving various poisonous insects, which are even more than the poisonous insects of the Baiyue tribe."

"For this reason, High Priest Shen Yue requests that we, Dayu, mobilize the Longxiang Army to join forces with their Baiyue tribe strongmen to search for the mysterious cultivator together."

"After finding it, the Baiyue tribe will only take the mysterious cultivator's method of refining the Gu worm. Everything else will belong to Your Majesty!"

"Innate Realm..."

Zheng Yi murmured.

Among martial artists, the strongest are those at the Xiantian realm.

Xu Mujun, the ancestor of Taiyi Dao, and the ancestor of Yinshan in Wu Kingdom are all powerful people in the innate realm.

One man is enough to resist an army of ten thousand.

But even then, they can be killed.

As long as you are willing to sacrifice human lives and fight with the lives of thousands of soldiers, you can always tire them out and then kill them!

"This matter..." Zheng Yi thought for a few breaths and said, "We'll discuss it later!"

"His Majesty?"

"The south has more mountains, and it is impossible to mobilize a large army. Xiantian Realm warriors can use the mountain terrain to conduct guerrilla warfare everywhere."

Zheng Yi said: "Let alone mobilizing a large army, even if a hundred thousand troops enter South Vietnam, the Xiantian Realm warriors can leave calmly."

"Not to mention the cultivators who have many methods!"

"Tell High Priest Shen Yue to first locate the mysterious man. It would be best if we can communicate with him."

"As long as this person is willing to come out and join our Great Yu Dynasty, I am willing to give him the gift of a royal title!"

Shen Xing could only say: "Yes!"

"Shen Xing, you did a great job this time. Go down and rest for a few days."

Zheng Yi said: "From now on, I will have to rely on you to contact High Priest Shen Yue."

"Yes, I will obey your command!"

Shen Xing said respectfully and left quickly.

Zheng Yi, on the other hand, stared at the Moonlight Gu in his hand and fell into deep thought.

"Moonlight Gu, Nanyue County, Mayfly Sect? There seems to be some connection between them?"

"You can use the 'Dongyun Spirit Insect Blood Sacrifice Method' to sacrifice the Moonlight Gu, but I have to see the difference between the two first..."

After returning to Qiankun Hall, Zheng Yi began to study the "Dongyun Spirit Insect Blood Sacrifice Method" and the method of cultivating poisonous insects handed over by High Priest Shen Yue.

The two are very similar, yet there are huge differences in subtle details.

To be precise, the Dongyun Spirit Insect Blood Sacrifice method uses one's own blood essence to refine spirit insects, allowing the spirit insects and the practitioner to communicate with each other and grow rapidly.

The secret method of cultivating poisonous insects handed over by High Priest Shen Yue is to cultivate the poisonous insects with special materials, let the poisonous insects kill each other, and then select the best ones and control them with secret methods.

Compared to the "Dongyun Spirit Insect Blood Sacrifice Method", his secret method of cultivating poisonous insects takes longer time, and the strength of the cultivated poisonous insects is not as good as that of spirit insects.

"In that case, let's use the Dongyun Spirit Insect Blood Sacrifice Method to cultivate the Moonlight Gu. I wonder what the effect will be?"

He bathed, burned incense, and meditated.

Three days later, he adjusted his condition to the best and then took out the Moonlight Gu Queen.

"Essence and blood... are the essence of the human body, the innate essence, and the original power of the human body."

"The stronger the blood essence, the stronger the person's physical condition, strength, and energy will be."

"Similarly, the longer the life span, the stronger it will be."

"In other words, blood essence is life span!"

He concentrated his mind and calmed down, stretched out his right hand, and forced a drop of bright red blood from the tip of his index finger, which dripped onto the Moonlight Gu.
