System: Infinite Evolution into Qilin Bloodline

finally come!

Zhang Hao came to the Khmer king's tomb to search for special items.

Unexpectedly, a special item was discovered as soon as they entered the ancient tomb, before even reaching the main burial chamber.

But what on earth is this green-skinned insect? There isn't even an ant around, except for the human skin puppet.

He had already used sound waves to locate and detect the location, and was very certain that there were only human skin figurines nearby.

Moreover, these human skin figurines were all hollow, so the green cicadas could not have been inside their bodies.

"Uncle, what are you doing?"

Wu Tianzhen was following behind Zhang Hao when he noticed that Zhang Hao had suddenly stopped.

Have you ever heard of the green caterpillar?

"Yes, I saw it in the old man's notebook before. I heard that the Qingfu insect was one of the important methods used by the ancients to find their relatives."

The green cicada is divided into a mother cicada and daughter cicadas. No matter how far apart they are, the mother cicada can sense the location of the daughter cicadas.

I've heard that this kind of insect needs to be fed human skin; once it sees blood, it will eat the person, leaving behind only the skin.

Before Wu Tianzhen could finish speaking, everyone around her turned to look at the human skin puppets.

"Do you think these human skin figurines might have been made from the leftover human skin from raising caterpillars?"

"I think it's very possible, otherwise, peeling so many people's skin would be disgusting enough to make people die of disgust."

Zhang Hao looked at the human skin figurines throughout the tomb. If it was really as the fat man guessed, they were all products left behind from raising Qingfu insects.

What was the purpose of the Khmer Empire that led them to sacrifice tens of thousands of people to raise the blue worm?

"Hey, look at this human skin figurine, it's still elastic."

The fat man couldn't help but reach out and pinch the human skin puppets next to him, and found that their skin was just as bouncy and smooth as that of a living person.

"what!"

The fat man suddenly screamed and pulled his hand back.

"Damn it, the ancient craftsmen were so careless; there are still sewing needles left on it."

"Fatty, look at your fingers!"

The fat man stretched out his injured finger, and it was clear that the finger had turned black, as if it had died.

"poisoned!"

The surrounding crowd gasped in surprise.

Zhang Hao frowned. He first used the Qilin blood to detoxify the fat man, and then looked at the human skin puppet.

There was nothing unusual about the spot where the fat man had just touched, nor were there any traces of needle marks.

If that's the case, then how did the fat man get injured?

He extended a finger and slowly approached, and at that moment the entire human skin puppet suddenly stretched out and turned into a flat human skin.

The human skin seemed to have a life of its own; it suddenly pounced on Zhang Hao, enveloping him and reverting to its human skin puppet form.

The sudden scene terrified everyone.

"Brother Zhang Hao!"

"Uncle!"

"Boss, I'm here to save you!"

After a brief moment of stunned silence, Wu Tianzhen, Fatty, Yi Sa, and Ding Yudie immediately drew their daggers and rushed forward, ready to tear the human skin puppet apart.

"Fuck!"

The fat man raised his dagger and stabbed it hard into the human skin puppet, but not even a pinhole-sized wound appeared on the puppet.

"Fatty, you look so strong, but I didn't expect you to be so weak. You can't even pierce a human skin."

After Ding Yudie finished speaking, she also raised her dagger and stabbed down.

The result was exactly the same as when the fat man was stabbed; there wasn't even a tiny wound the size of a pinprick.

"Damn, this human skin puppet is made of human skin, how can it be so tough? Even cowhide would be torn open with this cut!"

"You say I'm weak? I don't think you're much better."

"Alright, stop arguing. Uncle is still inside. Let's hurry up and figure out a way to get him out."

Wu Tianzhen used a dagger to make cuts on the human skin puppet, trying to wear it down with persistent dripping water.

But all he did was in vain; it had no effect whatsoever.

Among the group, Yi Sa was the strongest, and even she couldn't do anything about the human skin puppet.

Cutting with a knife or burning with fire will have no effect whatsoever.

"Brother Zhang Hao?"

Yi Sa patted the human skin puppet, wanting to ask about Zhang Hao's situation.

"I'm fine, don't worry."

After being wrapped in human skin, Zhang Hao found himself inside what felt like a giant stomach.

The skin continuously secretes strong acid, and his clothes were instantly corroded.

If his body weren't as hard as diamond, he would probably have been completely digested by now.

He carefully observed inside the human skin puppet's body and suddenly had a bold conjecture.

Actually, this human skin figurine is different from other human skin figurines; this human skin figurine is actually a green worm.

The fat man pricked his finger while pinching it, causing it to bleed, which finally woke up the green-bellied worm.

The legend of the green-skinned worm eating people is also true.

Otherwise, it wouldn't make sense that he attacked first and his body secreted strong acid.

Zhang Hao looked down at his clothes, which were about to be completely corroded away.

Without thinking, he stretched out his hand and chopped it forward in a chop motion.

With a "rip," a hole was torn open in the human skin puppet.

Then, grabbing both sides of the opening with both hands and tearing hard, he ripped open a large hole and crawled out of it.

As soon as Zhang Hao emerged, the human skin puppet collapsed to the ground like a deflated balloon.

"Uncle, are you alright?"

Wu Tianzhen saw Zhang Hao's tattered clothes and worried expression.

Zhang Hao took off his shirt, which was mostly corroded, and threw it on the ground, revealing his perfectly sculpted muscles.

"I'm fine, everyone don't need to worry."

As Zhang Hao spoke, he took off the fat man's coat and put it on himself.

"If I'm not mistaken, this human skin figurine is a Qingfu insect."

After saying that, he rubbed another human skin puppet next to him with his hand.

The moment your finger touches it, a large hole appears in the human skin puppet's face.

Zhang Hao experimented several times, and each time the situation was the same; only the human skin puppet that had just swallowed him was elastic.

In other words, his guess was correct.

That human skin figurine was actually a blue-skinned worm.

"I was wondering why human skin was so tough, practically impervious to swords and spears. Turns out it's a green-skinned insect."

"Thank goodness Brother Zhang Hao is so capable. If I had been swallowed up, I would have been doomed."

"Who can argue with that? With skin that tough, how could anyone tear a hole and escape with their bare hands? Only the boss could do that!"

"That insect is so weird, how come it looks like human skin?"

Zhang Hao shook his head. It was also his first time seeing a green-feathered insect, and he didn't know anything about this kind of insect.

He looked at the human skin figurines on the ground and felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

"Alright, stop thinking about it. The Khmer royal tombs are full of eeriness. Everyone be careful from now on."

Zhang Hao let the others go first while he followed behind. After everyone had turned around, he touched the corpse of the green worm.

"System, fuse with the Qingfu insect!"
