Inside the creep area, inside the tomb.
Chu Yunsheng suddenly opened his eyes. What he saw just now was like a dream. However, the movement of the box that was trying to rise from the bottom of the tomb was transmitted to Chu Yunsheng's consciousness through Min. It was so real.
"Let it come up!"
Chu Yunsheng gave a simple command to the tomb to let them go. The mud box was rolled up by the pipe and carried all the way to the resting platform that Chu Yunsheng was sitting on, which was made of thin and soft pipes.
This time, it didn't have the pattern lock function. Chu Yunsheng opened it directly and took out the "energy bar" and the "map". Then the box was crushed into powder.
He directly threw the energy bar into the storage talisman. Now that the storage talisman was a level-three talisman, Chu Yunsheng didn't have to worry that it would explode because of the exhaustion of energy. However, as he stored more and more insects' bodies, the second storage talisman seemed to be running out of energy.
What he cared about now was the map. He didn't believe the five heaven's messengers were the hope of mankind. But whether he believed it or not, it had nothing to do with him. Didn't they say that he didn't have the authority to do this or that? In their eyes, he was just an ordinary human being with some outstanding abilities.
The reason why he looked at the map was to find the location of one of the candidates. He was very familiar with this person, but he just met her not long ago. She was Yu Xiaohai's cousin, Tan Ning!
He was very puzzled. Tan Ning was a weak girl. She was not awakened, and there was nothing special about her. Of course, other than her beautiful appearance, Chu Yunsheng really couldn't see anything special about her.
According to the silhouette in the mirror, Tan Ning's life force probably had the qualification to become the heaven's messenger. Chu Yunsheng didn't know anything about it. Because he didn't have the qualification, he didn't have the authority, so the silhouette in the mirror would not tell him.
Chu Yunsheng didn't want to waste his time thinking about it. Now that the way to leave the yellow mountain area was right in front of him, as long as the heaven's messenger returned, he would be able to leave this damn place and continue his journey.
He didn't want to stay here one more day. Whether it was the non-human beings, the giant birds, or the silhouette in the mirror, he just wanted to stay as far away from them as possible.
Moreover, he didn't want Tan Ning to be chosen as the heaven's messenger.
As an ordinary person, she didn't attract much attention. What she needed was nothing more than food. With his own ability, he could help Yu Xiaohai take care of her survival.
Once she became the Heaven's messenger, she would become the center of attention, and from then on, she would always be in danger. Chu Yunsheng couldn't fight against so many forces by himself, and he didn't have that much energy to waste, so he could only leave her to fate.
Also, if what the silhouette in the mirror said was true, from a psychological point of view, the burden on her shoulders was too heavy, so heavy that he did not even dare to face it.
Therefore, he needed to find Tan Ning as soon as possible and tell her everything. He wanted her to make her own decision. After all, he didn't think that his opinion might be the same as other people's.
But Chu Yunsheng would only give her two choices: if she chose not to fight for the position, he would still take her with him; if she chose to fight for the position, he would part ways with her here, and from then on, they would go their separate ways.
…
He collected his thoughts, stretched out his wrist, and glanced at the time. This time, he had only been in the Ancient God Domain for three hours, and the outside world was still shrouded in darkness. All sorts of insects were licking the sticky ground, and their hissing sounds were lingering in the air …
The tomb's egg-making work had also stopped for three hours. All the sticky liquid energy that came from underground was divided into two parts by Chu Yunsheng. One part was used to feed the baby Min, and the other part was used to make the growth liquid.
According to Chu Yunsheng's detailed observation in the past three days, his tomb could produce about 40 red-shelled insects on average every day by absorbing the slime energy from the outside and the underground.
This was a very terrifying output, more than 14,000 red-shelled insects in one year! And the most important thing was that there was more than one tomb!
No wonder when he was in Jin Ling city, through the golden-shelled insect's memory, that planet was almost drained by them!
Of course, this was calculated based on the amount of sticky liquid energy. In fact, a red-shelled insect needed three days to hatch. Chu Yunsheng's observation period was just a little more than three days, so he understood this point.
Using the absorption talisman, Chu Yunsheng calculated that to hatch a fully formed red-shelled insect, the whole process would consume about three units of Yuan Qi. This surprised him very much!
Every time he killed a red-shelled insect, he could only get about two units of Yuan Qi from its body. Including the part that disappeared after it died, he would lose at least one unit of Yuan Qi in an instant. He had lost about one-third of his Yuan Qi!
On the other hand, it could be calculated that the giant tomb he controlled could absorb about 120 units of Yuan Qi in a day, after deducting its own consumption, which could be converted into incubation energy!
Chu Yunsheng's Rong Yuan body only had 60 units of Yuan Qi in his body. If he didn't use the absorption talisman, he would need at least four days to absorb Yuan Qi from the surroundings. In other words, he would only be able to absorb 15 units of Yuan Qi a day.
Although this was already an incredible speed compared to when he was at Yuan Tian stage one, but compared to the tomb's horizontal speed, it was still very slow.
The tomb's daily energy was 8 times of his! And this was just a small tomb. If it was replaced by the giant tomb in the insect's world, what would it look like?
Although 120 units of Yuan Qi seemed to be a lot, in fact, if it was converted to a high-level insect, it would be very difficult.
Chu Yunsheng quickly listed the data:
A green-shelled insect could provide him with 18 units of Yuan Qi, but to hatch it, it needed 27 units of Yuan Qi. 120 units of Yuan Qi could only allow him to hatch four to five insects a day.
A golden-shelled insect could provide him with 36 units of Yuan Qi, and to hatch it, it needed 54 units of Yuan Qi. The tomb could only provide him with 120 units of Yuan Qi per day, it could only allow him to hatch two insects a day.
There were also worms, Snake Worms that could shoot fireballs from a distance, and even Purple Flame Devil Worms …
However, this method of calculating the number of insects based on the amount of sticky liquid energy was definitely wrong!
At least in Jin Ling city, other than the countless red-shelled insects, Chu Yunsheng had never seen so many green-shelled insects and golden-shelled insects. There must be something that limited the hatching speed of the high-level insects.
After Chu Yunsheng carefully thought about it, he confirmed that it was the growth promoting mucus that could speed up his cultivation!
Once the supply of the growth promoting mucus was stopped, the hatching speed of the high-level insects would immediately stop. No matter how much the growth promoting mucus was, it would be useless.
Because of the existence of the growth promoting mucus, and the fact that the tomb could not hatch one type of insect like what Chu Yunsheng had guessed, the number of high-level insects was greatly limited.
Chu Yunsheng still couldn't calculate the specific number. He had only controlled the tomb for less than four days, and the growth promoting mucus was only concentrated when he was in the divine realm.
So he still needed to continue the experiment.
But before the Min was fully formed, the other two tombs would be enough to hatch the insects. His tomb's main focus would be on feeding the Min and producing the growth promoting mucus.
Once the Min matured, Chu Yunsheng would be able to use it to indirectly control all the insects in the creep area. He would no longer need to rely on the purple flame monster to suppress and threaten them.
Not only could it be used to verify the experimental data and get the accurate production rate of the tomb, but it was also very important for him to break through to the next stage.
Chu Yunsheng arranged half of the tombs to feed the baby Min, and the other half to produce the growth promoting mucus. When he came back from the castle of Snowstorm, the accumulated growth promoting mucus should be enough for him to break through to the third stage of Rong Yuan body!
Before he went to bed, he used the sixteen diagrams that he got from the third island chain again. It was a set of physical combat techniques. Although its power was much weaker than his Qian Bi sword, it didn't need the help of any props. Although it might not help Chu Yunsheng in actual combat, it might be useful in some special situations.
However, Chu Yunsheng was already mentally exhausted, and he didn't have the mood to modify the ancient book. After resting peacefully for a night, the next day, when the shimmer was still in the early stage, he took out a relatively old set of clothes from the storage talisman and put it on. Then he took off the woolen headgear, and his long silver-white hair immediately fluttered in the air.
Looking at himself in the mirror, he estimated that even if Edgar was standing in front of him now, he might not be able to recognize him.
Then, he took out a dirty bedsheet and stuffed a few pieces of clothes into it. He carried it on his back and pretended that he had escaped to this place.
According to the map provided by the silhouette in the mirror, the first target he needed to deal with was in a corner of the castle of Snowstorm, and Tan Ning was in the center of the castle.
Chu Yunsheng summoned the golden-shelled insect and let it crawl into the crack of the shell. He also took away the purple flame monster and the other sealed insects. Then he left the creep area. With the baby Min in the tomb, the insects wouldn't be able to cause any damage …
The castle of Snowstorm was located on the west side, and Chu Yunsheng was on the south side. There was still a long way to go in the middle. On the way, Chu Yunsheng encountered a group of refugees. Chu Yunsheng took the initiative to approach them.
But he didn't expect that when he approached them, those skinny refugees were like hungry wolves that saw a lamb. They immediately rushed towards him and snatched the bag that he used as a disguise. In the blink of an eye, they tore it apart.
Seeing that there was no food in the bag, the refugees were quite disappointed. But they didn't forget to take away the clothes inside.
"Damn old man, do you have anything to eat?!" A skinny, fierce-looking woman threw away Chu Yunsheng's dirty bed sheet and scolded him.
"Fuck! Why are you still talking nonsense, hurry up and bring this damn old man here! I haven't eaten meat for a long time, hurry up and prepare a pot! "a skinny man with a big beard shouted angrily.
The eyes of the refugees that surrounded Chu Yunsheng instantly lit up, as if they had just seen something delicious.
Since the beginning of the dark age, although Chu Yunsheng was not a awakened person, he was still much stronger than a awakened person. He had never stayed at the bottom of the dark age as a weak person. So it was the first time that he encountered such a situation.
"You want to cook me?" Chu Yunsheng took out a pistol from his pocket and pointed it at the head of a young man who was trying to "subdue" him. (To be continued, if you want to know what happened next, please log in. Support the author, support the original reading!) (To be continued.)
