Zixin was shocked, and a chill ran through her body.
This person clearly had the Spirit-eating Venomous Insect, but he didn't know that there were other Spirit-eating Venomous Insects.
This meant that this person didn't come out from the gap. Could he have been in the Wuji World all along?
However, according to Van Gogh's records, all the Spirit-eating Venomous Insects came out from this gap, so this person must have come out a long time ago.
Her heart beat wildly, and she immediately thought of the person's identity.
"Hey, you seem to recognize me?"
The man looked into Zixin's eyes, as if he could read her mind.
Zixin was so scared that she quickly closed her eyes and turned her face away, saying, "I don't recognize you!"
The man smiled and said, "Whether you recognize me or not, I can see fear and resignation in your eyes. It's good that you've accepted your fate. Now, can you tell me everything I want to know?"
Zixin was about to resist, but she suddenly saw a cold glint in the man's eyes. She couldn't help but tremble, and a chill ran through her body again. She was sure that if she struggled, the man would definitely kill her and search her soul mercilessly.
She swallowed hard and said in a trembling voice, "Many Spirit-eating Venomous Insects came out from this gap and attached themselves to the martial artists."
The man's eyes narrowed, and he stared at the gap, as if he was afraid. No one knew what he was thinking.
Zixin said again, "I've told you everything. Can I go now?"
The man snorted.
Zixin's heart skipped a beat as she sensed the murderous aura. She thought to herself, "He won't kill me again, will he?"
At this moment, several powerful lights shot over, and they all turned into their original forms in front of the gap. Everyone emitted the same aura, but the strength was different. They were all Spirit-eating Venomous Insects, and they all looked shocked as they stared at the gap.
"This feeling … Has that thing been activated by someone?"
A martial artist's face was full of fear.
"I don't want to go in anymore. I don't want to go in anymore!"
Another martial artist shouted, turned around, and ran back, turning into a light that flashed in the air. Suddenly, the man frowned and reached into the void.
The man who wanted to escape was instantly restrained, and he turned back into his original form. He was fixed in the air, and he struggled desperately. He said in shock and anger, "What are you doing?"
The man was expressionless, and he asked, "What's the state of that thing now?"
The man who was restrained said in shock, "What are you saying? I don't understand! "
The man snorted and clenched his fist.
"Ah! — — "
"Boom!"
The person who was being restrained exploded in the air, turning into a pool of flesh and blood. Countless red threads shot out. Some of them shot towards the man, while the others fled into the distance.
The man casually waved his hand, and the surrounding space shook inexplicably. Everyone was affected, and the large number of red threads were instantly grabbed by the man and absorbed into his body.
The man made a grabbing motion in front of him, and the portion that had escaped was pulled back into his palm. Not a single strand managed to escape.
"Bang!" Zixin was scared out of her wits. She knew how powerful this red thread was. It was almost invulnerable, and even divine weapons could hardly damage it.
The man who had been killed was at the peak of the Eight Star Thousand Realms Whirling Stage, which was only one level lower than her. However, this man had casually killed him with just two moves, and not even his corpse was left behind. It was likely that he had been devoured.
The other Soul Devouring Parasites were even more frightened. Their expressions changed drastically, and they glanced at each other before hurriedly spreading out and surrounding the man, forming an encirclement against a common enemy.
They were different from Purple Heart. They immediately knew that this man was one of their kind, but they did not take him seriously when they first arrived. Now that the man had shown them a skill, they were scared out of their wits. They immediately gathered together to form a rope.
"Who are you?!" a cultivator shouted.
There were more than a dozen of them, and the uneasiness in their hearts calmed down slightly. They thought that if they joined forces, they would not be defeated.
At the same time, they were very surprised. The man in front of them was one of them, but they had never seen him before.
"Who am I?"
The man said with a smile, "There's no harm in telling you. I want to know the state of that thing now. You should have just come out, right? Could it be that the magic power of that thing has loosened? "
One of the cultivators was silent for a moment before saying, "Are you talking about that jar?"
The man's expression changed slightly, and he snorted, "What do you think?"
That cultivator shuddered from being stared at, and he said, "It loosened a long time ago, but there was a seal on the outside, and we were never able to get out. Not long ago, the seal was taken away, and we came out. "
Another ancient martial art practitioner pointed at Zi Xin and said, "It was his companion who broke the seal."
The man frowned and muttered to himself, "How could it have loosened?" He stood where he was quietly, as if he had encountered a difficult problem, and fell into deep thought.
The Soul Devouring Parasites around him looked at each other, wanting to attack, but not daring to. They kept exchanging glances, but none of them had a unified answer.
"I get it now!"
The man suddenly shouted, scaring everyone. The man then said, "Van Gogh did not get that jar at all, so he could not control it at all. As such, he could only use part of the jar's power, and the seal it formed was not strong. This explains why the jar is still here. He could not have taken it away. "
Zixin's heart tightened when she heard that, and she became even more certain of the man's identity.
The man then continued, "No wonder Van Gogh did not use that jar to contain me. At first, I thought he was greedy for the treasure and could not bear to leave the jar behind, so he took it away. Now, I understand that he did not get it at all. Hmph, but then again, that jar is a supreme item, and it is not something that he could have taken away. "
When the men around heard the words "jar," they were all horrified. One of them then asked, "Who are you? Are you one of us? Why have we never seen you before? "
The man glanced around with disdain and said coldly, "When I was in the Heaven Jar, your ancestor was still an insect egg."
The dozen or so people looked at each other, not knowing how to respond.
One of them frowned and suddenly shouted in shock, "I know who you are!"
That voice immediately became respectful, filled with fear, respect, and disbelief.
That person then said with a trembling voice, "A long time ago, there was a Soul Devouring Parasite that escaped from that jar. According to the memories passed down from generation to generation, that person was called Double Nascent!"
Some of the dozen or so people's faces changed drastically, while others were still in a daze.
That person cupped his fists respectfully and said, "Sir, you should be at Double Nascent. Even if our ancestors were here, they would still have to submit to you."
Double Nascent snorted and said, "I didn't expect there to be people who understand. When I left back then, I devoured all of the powerful Soul Devouring Parasites, leaving only a dozen behind. They were too weak, and I was too lazy to devour them. You people should be the descendants of those weak parasites, right?"
That's all for today. Good night, everyone.
