"What?" Ning Ji lowered his head and stared at Yu Can. He asked in confusion, "What bloodworm?"
"My grandfather isn't unconscious because of a high fever, but because the Scarlet Turtle Bloodworms are absorbing his fragmented memories, which are being extracted from his earth soul." Yu Yuan raised his hand and pointed at the hair-like blood line between the old man's eyebrows. "Look, this thing that looks like a blood line is the Scarlet Turtle Bloodworm!"
Ning Ji was stunned. "What's a Scarlet Turtle Bloodworm? Also, why are you so sure? How do you know? "
He had too many questions about the Yu Yuan in front of him. This young man who had awakened his Earth Soul and Heavenly Soul was too abnormal.
The Yu Yuan who had awakened was completely different from the one he had seen and heard about before. He didn't seem like the same person.
"Most Scarlet Turtle Bloodworms come from the Rainbow Cloud Miasma Sea in the northern part of the Tranquil Continent. These poisonous insects are as thin as blood threads. Once absorbed between the eyebrows of a living being, they have the ability to extract the memories of the Earth Soul." Yu Yuan's face was cold as he said, "According to what you said, Yin Jue didn't rely on his own cultivation to extract my grandfather's memories. He relied on the Scarlet Turtle Bloodworm!"
"It comes from the Rainbow Cloud Miasma Sea?" Ning Ji was shocked.
The northern part of the Tranquil Continent was the most terrifying place in the world. The most evil Devil's Palace and Goblin Temple were both located there.
Even the powerful cultivators of the Tianyuan Continent wouldn't easily set foot in this place, lest they angered the Devil's Palace and Goblin Temple.
In the entire Haoran, the Rainbow Cloud Miasma Sea in the northern part of the Tranquil Continent was publicly acknowledged as the source of all the strange poisonous insects in the world.
When Ning Ji heard that the Scarlet Turtle Bloodworm came from the Rainbow Cloud Miasma Sea, he knew that his old friend was most likely dead.
"Yes, the Scarlet Turtle Bloodworm is a poisonous insect from there. It's also the main ingredient for refining the Soul Assimilating Pill. A true Soul Assimilating Pill can not only extract all the memories gathered in the Earth Soul, but also preserve its owner's life. As for the Red Turtle Bloodworm, because it hasn't been refined, it can only extract fragmented memories. Moreover, this worm is abnormally hot, causing the person who absorbs it to die from heat poison. "
"As for how many memories it can obtain, it all depends on how long the person it absorbs can last."
As he finished speaking, Yu Yuan was so angry that his body trembled slightly.
In his previous life, in the later stages of his life, because he was unable to open up his blocked meridians using the normal method, he had once immersed himself in the path of refining poison.
The Soul Snatching Pill was a type of poison pill. This pill was able to extract the memories of cultivators who had failed to form their Yin Spirit and unearth their hidden secrets.
After a cultivator's Earth Soul transformed into a Yin Spirit, they would no longer be affected by the Soul Snatching Pill. They could even send their Yin Spirit out of their body and sneak into the Soul Snatching Pill to kill all the strengthened Scarlet Turtle Bloodworms within the pill. Then, they could use the Scarlet Turtle Bloodworms to nourish their Yin Spirit, strengthen themselves, and increase their cultivation base.
As for those below the Yin Spirit Realm, it was very difficult for those in the Meridian Opening, Spirit Nurturing, Golden Hall, Shattering Mystery, and Minute Subtlety Realms to break free from the evil medicinal effects of the Soul Devouring Pill if they didn't have a secret art that could protect the earthly soul or a spirit artifact to protect themselves. Usually, all of their hidden secrets would be seized, as if they were completely naked and exposed.
"How do we kill this poisonous insect?" Ning Ji asked softly.
For the time being, he didn't want to think about how Yu Yuan knew the secret of the Scarlet Turtle Bloodworm that even he didn't know about. He only hoped that Yu Yuan, who was full of doubts, could solve the problem that troubled his old friend.
The Scarlet Turtle Bloodworm was clearly still extracting the memories of his old friend's Earth Soul, and the heat poison was still in effect.
If this continued, his old friend wouldn't be able to hold on and die from the heat poison.
"Do you trust me?" Yu Yuan asked all of a sudden.
Ning Ji looked at him and hesitated for a moment before saying, "You, who have awakened your Earth Soul and Heavenly Soul, are a bit strange. However, I believe that you won't harm your grandfather. After all, all the disasters he has suffered over the years were caused by you. "
Yu Yuan felt pain in his heart. He took a deep breath and said, "Alright, since you trust me, then help me prepare some things. Not only do I have to ensure my grandfather's safety, but I also have to use the Scarlet Turtle Bloodworm to teach the caster a lesson! "
"Isn't the caster Yin Jue?"
"No."
"If it's not him, then who is it?"
"It should be someone from the Frigid Yin Sect."
"What?!"
…
In the mountain forest outside Dark Moon City.
In the dark belly of a barren mountain, a cave that could only accommodate three or four people had been dug out. The entrance of the cave was mostly blocked by jagged rocks.
The inside of the cave was cold and gloomy.
Sitting with her back against the stone wall, Lu Mang was cultivating in silence. Every time she took a breath, she would glance at the fist-sized jade in front of her knees.
Inside the sparkling, translucent jade, there was a crimson blood string. If the blood string was magnified a hundred times, one would be able to see that there were streams of light converging on it from all directions.
The crimson blood string was the soul projection of the Scarlet Turtle Bloodworm, which was condensed from a drop of its Blood Essence. The streams of light were none other than Yu Can's memories.
"Yin Jue greets Master Lu!"
A soft voice suddenly echoed out from outside the cave.
Lu Mang's eyebrows furrowed as she opened her eyes and said indifferently, "Come in."
Yin Jue quickly entered the cave and curled up his body, as if he was afraid that he would take up too much space and annoy her.
"There are cultivators in Dark Moon City that even I am wary of. Even I have to be careful, lest I be targeted." Lu Mang seemed somewhat displeased. "Just do what I tell you. Don't come to see me too often unless something unexpected happens. Your cultivation base is still low. You'll be targeted easily, and I'll be exposed as well. "
"Master, I wouldn't dare to disturb you if something hadn't happened." Yin Jue hastily said.
"What happened?" Lu Mang asked curiously.
"Yu Yuan isn't dead. Not only is he not dead, but he's actually woken up. "Yin Jue lowered his head and said in a low voice," He's not stupid anymore. He can even talk now. "Master, is there any problem with the method you taught me?" Or did you make a mistake? "
"How dare you question me?"
Lu Mang, who was sitting quietly, suddenly had rings of silver light appear on the surface of her dark gray robe.
If one looked closely, they would discover that there were dozens of shining silver poisonous pythons swimming on her robe.
HISS! HISS!
The silver poisonous pythons seemed to have their tails connected to Lu Mang, while their ferocious heads were held high.
The poisonous pythons' white scales on their necks were like silver plates, giving off a cold, metallic luster. Their oily green eyes made people shudder.
XIU!
One of the silver poisonous pythons shot out like lightning and wrapped around Yin Jue's neck like a vine, and quickly tightened.
"Master, please spare my life!"
Last night at the Yu family's old mansion, Yin Jue, who was extremely fierce, was covered in cold sweat. He immediately knelt down and begged, "It must be my fault. Please forgive me, Master! Master, give me a few more days. I promise I'll chop off Yu Yuan's head, so that he won't have any chance of coming back to life! "
"Trash like you, I think you should just die." Lu Mang was expressionless as he watched the silver venomous python tighten its grip and nibble at Yin Jue's life force bit by bit. "Don't worry. After you die, the Lin family will arrange for a new servant to serve me."
"Please, please …"
Yin Jue's begging voice was already intermittent.
At this moment.
PENG!
The red blood line inside the green jade stone placed in front of Lu Mang's knees suddenly burned strangely.
CRACK! CRACK!
As the red blood line burned, the green jade stone shattered bit by bit. The inside of the stone seemed to be filled with ink, and it quickly turned from crystal clear to dark green and turbid.
"Who is it?!"
Lu Mang, who was about to kill Yin Jue on the spot, suddenly screamed like a demon. The other blood essence of the Red Turtle Bloodworm that she had placed in the middle dantian's profound gate also burned inexplicably.
When that bit of blood essence burned, it was like a sharp sword, piercing her profound gate as if it was about to be torn apart.
The lower dantian of a cultivator was where the spiritual energy of heaven and earth gathered, condensed and purified, and then flowed throughout the body.
The so-called profound gate was the middle dantian. It was a precious place to store blood energy, heal injuries, and refine the flesh and bones. It could be directly connected to the heart.
The upper dantian was where the three souls were and where the spiritual sense gathered.
The lower dantian gathered the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the middle dantian nourished the life force, and the upper dantian was the foundation of the spiritual sense.
Any one of the three dantians would be in so much pain that they would wish they were dead.
In the middle dantian's profound gate, Lu Mang, who had been struck by the blood essence, couldn't help but cough up a mouthful of blood.
"Strangle!"
Lu Mang hastily formed incantations, and dozens of silver poisonous pythons, including the one coiled around Yin Jue's neck, morphed into cold lightning bolts and flew into her middle dantian in the blink of an eye.
"Crackle!"
The silver poisonous pythons, which had shrunk thousands of times, flew in her middle dantian and finally destroyed the blood essence that had suddenly changed.
"You'll absorb that Red Turtle Bloodworm between Yu Can's eyebrows!" Wiping the blood at the corner of her mouth, Lu Mang's eyes were as cold as a ghost's as she stared at Yin Jue, who had almost died, and said, "What other powerful figure do you have in the Yu Clan that you haven't reported to me? Not only was my spell broken, he even managed to injure me with a backlash! "
"Impossible! The Yu Clan can't have such a powerful figure! " Yin Jue said with decisiveness that could sever nails and chop iron. "If the Yu Clan really had such a powerful figure, how could they have let me do whatever I wanted?"
"Then do you think I made the blood at the corner of my mouth myself?" Lu Mang shouted harshly.
"I wouldn't dare."
"Get the hell out of here! Investigate carefully for me. Apart from Ning Ji, who else from the Yu Clan has arrived recently? Also, find out if there are any strange figures hiding in the Yu Clan! "
With these words, Lu Mang took out a fragrant, dark-red pill and swallowed it. Her face became slightly rosier.
Yin Jue scrambled out of the cave in a hurry, and soon disappeared without a trace.
He was afraid that Lu Mang would vent her anger on him again.
"The Yu Clan …"
Lu Mang moved to the entrance of the cave and gazed in the direction of Dark Moon City, feeling gloomy. "Don't tell me that there's a powerful figure hiding in the Yu Clan. Why did the one from the Lin Clan insist on keeping the engagement despite everyone's objections? Someone who can break my spell and injure me is definitely not ordinary! "
…
In the Yu Clan in the north of the city.
A layer of black, sticky substance was smeared between Yu Can's eyebrows. Ning Ji's expression grew strange as he sniffed the pungent odor.
Beside him, Yu Yuan was holding a white porcelain bowl. Inside the bowl was the so-called spiritual medicine that he had made in front of Ning Ji to cure the Red Turtle Blood Worm.
The so-called spirit herbs were actually the twelve types of poisonous herbs that Yu Yuan had asked him to collect, mixed with the dead bodies of centipedes, scorpions, and bamboo snakes, and made into a sticky, stinky substance.
After the black, sticky substance was smeared between Yu Can's eyebrows and covered the crimson blood string, Yu Can's fever miraculously subsided.
What Ning Ji couldn't see was that the Red Turtle Blood Worm, which was as fine as a hair, was being burned by the black flame under the layer of skin between Yu Can's eyebrows.
During the burning process, the fragmented memories of Yu Can's earth soul that had gathered in the Red Turtle Blood Worm were scattered and returned to Yu Can's mind.
What Ning Ji didn't know was that Lu Mang, who was secretly casting spells outside Dark Moon City, was severely injured at the same time.
"It's almost done."
After a while, Yu Yuan reached out and gently tore the black, sticky substance off the old man's eyebrows.
The crimson blood string between the old man's eyebrows seemed to have been absorbed by the black, sticky substance.
Yu Can's fever had already subsided. His breathing had stabilized, and his face was no longer red.
"It's alright now. I'll go back and rest. If anyone asks, just tell them that the old man woke up on his own."
With these words, Yu Yuan left under Ning Ji's strange gaze.
