"The rumor of the Holy Land Blood Scorpion Queen?" Ye Kong's interest was piqued by Chen Runing.
Chen Runing replied, "That's right. I heard it when my master was chatting with someone."
"Your master?" Ye Kong was curious. He had long heard that Chen Runing had left Four Foot City to learn from a powerful master, but he had never asked about it.
However, Chen Runing did not answer. Instead, he continued, "At that time, my master and that friend were talking about the Holy Land Blood Scorpion, and I was waiting by their side. Actually, what I told you about the Holy Land Blood Scorpion was also what I heard at that time."
Ye Kong nodded.
Chen Runing continued, "They were discussing why the Holy Land Blood Scorpion was so powerful, and why it had the secret that could alarm a Holy Emperor. Actually, I had already heard of the Holy Land Blood Scorpion before, but I didn't know how powerful it was. Therefore, I listened attentively, and I didn't expect to hear this secret. It turns out that the reason the Holy Land Blood Scorpion can reproduce so crazily without diluting its strength is because of the existence of the Scorpion Queen! "
This was not a secret to Ye Kong, but it was still quite shocking to Chen Runing at that time.
"Then what about the rumor?" Ye Kong asked again.
"Listen to me." Chen Runing continued, "At that time, I was very shocked by the existence of the Scorpion Queen, so I rashly asked, 'The Holy Land Blood Scorpion already has a female scorpion that can give birth to offspring, so why does it have to give birth to a Scorpion Queen?'"
Chen Runing's question was exactly the same as Ye Kong's. Anyone with a bit of a brain would think the same way.
Without any surprise, Chen Runing's master's answer was the same as the explanation Chen Runing gave to Ye Kong. He said that the Scorpion Queen's function was to prevent the Holy Land Blood Scorpion's strength from being diluted during the rapid reproduction process. The existence of the Scorpion Queen could ensure the strength of the Holy Land Blood Scorpion population for a long time.
This was what Ye Kong already knew.
But at this time, Chen Runing said, "When my master said this, all his friends suddenly chimed in. He said, 'Although what your master said makes some sense, he only said that the Queen Scorpion is good for the Blood Scorpions, but he didn't explain the origin of the Queen Scorpion!'"
This time, Chen Runing did not let Ye Kong wait. Instead, she continued, "My master's friend said that the Holy Land Blood Scorpion is different from other creatures. It has a very unique trigamous reproduction method!"
"Threesexual reproduction!" Ye Kong wasn't shocked. Rather, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He had been to so many realms, but he had never heard of something so new.
"Yes, that's right." Chen Runing said, "At that time, I was also very curious. What is the third sex other than male and female reproduction?"
There was no need for Chen Runing to be curious. Ye Kong also felt curious and stared at Chen Runing.
Ye Kong did not expect that Chen Runing would actually mention a sacred beast that he had never thought of.
"The third nature is the Vermilion Bird! The rumor that I'm talking about is that the Holy Land Blood Scorpion is formed from the power of the male and female scorpions and the Vermilion Bird! "
"So that's how it is." Ye Kong suddenly understood. No wonder the Holy Land Blood Scorpion was so powerful that even the Sage Emperor had to deal with it. It turned out that their bodies contained the power of the Vermilion Bird. As for the origin of the Holy Land Blood Scorpion, Ye thought that it was probably because the male and female scorpions were having sex, and then the Vermilion Bird suddenly appeared and participated in the Great War.
Of course, it wouldn't be so evil.
Chen Runing said, "Actually, I have some thoughts about this. I think that the Queen Scorpion is the descendant of the Vermilion Bird, so it has the power of the Vermilion Bird. The Blood Scorpion is the descendant of the Queen Scorpion, so it has a bit of the Vermilion Bird's power. Speaking of which, the Blood Scorpion is the descendant of the Vermilion Bird, but the Vermilion Bird doesn't approve of it. "
Ye Kong asked curiously, "Why do you say that?"
Chen Runing said, "If the ancestor of the Vermilion Bird, Emperor Zhu, had spoken, the Sage Emperor and the others wouldn't have expelled the Holy Land Blood Scorpion."
"You're right." At this point, Ye Kong completely understood. No wonder the Dragon Bone Whip rushed over so excitedly. It turned out that there was a Queen Scorpion with the power of the Vermilion Bird here. This was what the Dragon Bone Whip couldn't stand.
At this moment, the Dragon Bone Whip and the Queen Scorpion were fighting. The Dragon Bone Whip was no longer dispirited, and it was now full of energy. It fiercely pushed away the large number of blood scorpions stuck to its skeleton, and then lashed out at the Queen Scorpion.
This made things difficult for Ye Kong, who was on the tip of the whip. He would be courting death if he wanted to leave, but if he didn't, the whip would be no small matter.
Pa!
Under this whip, a huge whip mark was left on the back of the Queen Scorpion, whose body was translucent.
"Jiang!" The Queen Scorpion was hurt by this whip. It raised its head and roared angrily. It opened its four claws and clawed at the tip of the Dragon Bone Whip.
This Queen Scorpion was the descendant of the Vermilion Bird. It had the body of a giant insect, but it had the black and red claws of a giant flamingo. In the center of the claws, there were many flame symbols!
When Ye Kong saw the giant claws coming for him, he shouted in his heart, "Not good." He was on the tip of the Dragon Bone Whip, and this claw of the Queen Scorpion was aimed directly at Ye Kong. If he was caught, the consequences would be hard to say.
"Dragon Bone Whip, I'm going to die because of you!" Ye Kong couldn't dodge at all, so he could only take the risk and leave. At this moment, the surrounding space was occupied by the fiery-red blood scorpions of the Holy Land. Only the area around the Queen Scorpion was not surrounded by blood scorpions.
Therefore, Ye Kong's body flipped in mid-air, and he had already escaped from the Dragon Bone Whip. After drawing an arc in mid-air, he landed steadily on the back of the Queen Scorpion.
The Queen Scorpion's body was incomparably huge, and it didn't care about the landing of a small insect like Ye Kong. Its giant claws grabbed the tip of the Dragon Bone Whip. If not for Ye Kong's shrewdness and timely escape, his life would have been in danger.
The Dragon Bone Whip was grabbed by the tip, but it didn't show any weakness. It suddenly retracted all the barbs on the long whip, and it became incomparably smooth. Then, using this smoothness, it pulled the whip out of the Queen Scorpion's hand.
"Jiang!" The Queen Scorpion was enraged, and it pounced forward again.
The two giant beasts fought in mid-air, and Ye Kong could only lie on the back of the Queen Scorpion.
Actually, Ye Kong had some misgivings in his heart. No matter what, the Dragon Bone Whip was his weapon. Even if it was kept in the turtle shell, it still belonged to him! Of course, he had to help the Dragon Bone Whip. There was no reason for him to help the Queen Scorpion.
But how could he help it? On the other hand, Ye Kong had spent quite a bit of time on it. This Scorpion Queen looked transparent and smooth on the outside, as if its skin was very soft. However, in reality, its transparent skin was extremely hard. Even a Seven Leaf Blade would find it hard to cut through it.
Ye Kong thought to himself, how can I help the Dragon Bone Whip? Looking around, he suddenly remembered that the blood scorpions had a strong golden corrosive poison, but the Queen Scorpion didn't have any. Could it be that the blood scorpions didn't want to hurt its mother?
"Hehe, you don't want to hurt your mother, but I don't get along with you! Let me try. " After saying that, Ye Kong directly used his hands to crush a large number of poisonous pills, and then sprinkled a large amount of corrosive poison powder on the back of the Queen Scorpion …
"This is called giving them a taste of their own medicine."
