God predicts a real daughter, and all the wealthy families kneel down and call their ancestors

The old man took a step back and retreated to the entrance.

Lu Zhizhi almost subconsciously released his spiritual energy to close the stone slab at the entrance.

The old man had a hunched back. The dim candlelight in the basement illuminated his wrinkled and grooved face, reminiscent of a mummy in a horror movie.

He smiled sinisterly.

"You don't have to close the entrance. I'm not planning on escaping."

"Because I want to see with my own eyes how you die here!"

Lu Zhizhi raised his hand and made a fire gesture, lighting the torch on the wall, and then he could see clearly.

The basement room is a square stone house.

There was something hanging from the ceiling, like a series of oval-shaped honeycombs.

Lu Zhizhi felt that the torches on the wall were too dim, so he made a fire gesture and lit the eight beehives in four directions.

A burning smell came, and in an instant a fire burst into flames.

Suddenly the light in the stone chamber brightened, but the scene became even more terrifying.

The burning oval was not a beehive but a bug's nest.

Perhaps an insect nest was burned, and hundreds of insect nests hanging from the ceiling were shaking.

It's not that the bugs are dead, but that they are some sleeping bugs!

Lu Zhizhi used the Fire Seal again, trying to burn the insect nests, but it was too late.

In an instant, the insect nests exploded, and countless flesh-colored insects fell out of the nests.

The bugs were covered in slime and it looked like raining all around them.

Not only was the slime disgusting, but everything that came into contact with it began to turn black as if it had been corroded.

Lu Zhizhi felt a chill. This bug was really beyond her tolerance. It was so disgusting!

He took out a purple gold talisman from his bag and ignited a circle of fire within a one-step radius around him.

Standing in the fire circle, he kept making fire gestures to burn the insects.

At this moment, she felt like she was in a sea of ​​fire, with burning insects everywhere.

Lu Zhizhi frowned and looked at the old man. The old man did not show any panic expression when he saw the insects being burned.

The corners of his mouth curved slightly, as if he was waiting for something.

After a while, all the fire went out, leaving only the circle of fire ignited by spiritual power under her feet still burning.

'Crack' 'Pop'

Like the sound of beans popping.

One sound, two sounds.

Then, a crackling sound echoed in the stone chamber, like corn popping and all the beans exploding.

Lu Zhizhi looked carefully and realized that the crackling sound came from the burnt insects on the ground.

At the same time, Lu Zhizhi felt an extreme pain in the back of his head.

At the place where Huo Xuan had planted the Worm Valley, it seemed as if something was about to pierce the skin and fly out of the brain.

Lu Zhizhi could no longer bear the pain, and his hands loosened, and the circle of fire under his feet disappeared.

The old man then started to chuckle.

"So this is all you can do!"

"I really don't know how Huo Xuan ended up in your hands!"

Lu Zhizhi couldn't hold on any longer and squatted on the ground, holding the back of his head.

She hurriedly gathered all her spiritual energy at the back of her head, trying to resist the thing at the back of her head.

When she just woke up, didn’t she say that the poisonous insect in the back of her head had been removed through surgery?

Why does it still hurt so much!

She was in so much pain that she couldn't think at all!

"what!"

Lu Zhizhi couldn't help but scream out.

The old man grinned grimly, and when he got tired of laughing, he held on to the wall with his hands.

"Do you think it's so easy to be the leader of the Xuanjing Sect?"

"I have been competing with Huo Xuan for decades and I have never been able to defeat her!"

Lu Zhizhi looked up and asked, breathing heavily.

"What on earth do you want to do? Are you Huo Xuan?"

The old man chuckled.

"I'm not Huo Xuan. I'm just an ordinary Xuan Master in the Xuan Jing Sect, but I also use Gu."

Lu Zhi felt a strange feeling on the back of his head. It didn’t seem to hurt that much, but he could still clearly feel that there were worms under the skin on the back of his head.

"You raised this Gu, right?"

"I advise you not to attack me."

"Even if I'm going to be killed by these bugs, I can take you with me before I die!"

"If I can't kill you, the man outside won't let you go either!"

The old man spread his hands.

"You are blaming me wrongly!"

"I'm not the one who wants you dead, and I didn't create these bugs!"

He walked slowly down the steps.

"I didn't lie to you. This place is indeed the secret library of the Xuanjing Sect."

"Don't underestimate the small size of the room. The place where you are standing is the core of the entire Xuanjing Sect's formation."

He raised his hand and pointed around.

"On these bookshelves are formations and mystical arts created by the Xuanjing Sect's Xuan masters over the past few hundred years, as well as some forbidden arts that violate the harmony of nature."

"Huo's Gu technique is superb. In comparison, his Xuan technique is a bit lackluster."

"I dare say that if it comes to a competition of mystical arts, anyone in the sect can defeat her."

"She knows all this herself, so she uses many excuses to plant poisonous insects in everyone in the Xuanjing Sect. If anyone dares to have bad intentions, she will kill that person immediately!"

The old man talked incessantly, but Lu Zhizhi was using the spiritual energy in his body to feel the bugs behind his head.

After trying a few times, she found that the insect did not attack her.

She pretended to listen carefully and used her spiritual energy to guide the poisonous insect.

"Huo Xuan thought that this way she could control all the people in Xuanjing Sect."

"But as time goes by, there are always new masters joining the Xuanjing Sect, and there are many Gu insect masters among them."

"She panicked when she found out that those Gu insect masters were not under her control at all."

"So, she set up a Gu insect formation in this place where the leader could be changed."

"Whenever someone tries to awaken this formation and change the leader, these bugs will wake up and launch an attack."

Lu Zhizhi looked at the insects all over the ground. The charred shells had shattered and no one knew what was inside.

"Didn't I just burn all these bugs?"

The old man gave a mocking smile.

"I've seen someone dodge Huo Xuan's sect leader's token and force his way into this formation."

"Everyone knows that Gu insects prefer shade and fear fire, so they will choose to burn them with fire."

"But Huo Xuan's insect is different. After being burned by fire, it will be catalyzed and transformed into another kind of insect."

The shattering sounds in the house stopped, the old man's face changed, he turned around and quickly ran back to the stairs.

He took out a piece of talisman paper and raised his hand to make a hand gesture.

Lu Zhizhi saw clearly and he built a protective shield around himself.

Before she could react, she heard the sound of wings flapping.

The stone chamber was empty and there were few things in it, and the sound of flapping wings was very obvious.

Lu Zhi subconsciously looked towards the source of the sound.

A small white butterfly flew out of the charred shell.

The butterfly was glowing faintly and flickering as it flew.

Little butterflies kept breaking out of their cocoons, flapping their wings and flying towards her.

wrong!

The butterfly was not white, but had powder on its body!

Although Lu Zhizhi didn't know what this was, he already had an idea in his mind.

The mucus carried by the fleshworm just now can corrode objects, so can the powder carried by this butterfly also corrode things?
