After her senior sister was reborn, she actually became a powerful and arrogant protagonist?!

Looking at the insects, Gu Lin fell into deep thought, a rare occurrence for him.

As far as he knew, these demonic insects, whether juvenile or adult, could not leave the human body.

Moreover, it's an adult like the one in front of us.

It flies in mid-air and has wings...

"This is truly beyond my expectations."

"Who exactly trained these people?"

Hey.

Boom!

The insects in the cave seemed to sense that their time was coming to an end.

Faced with the parasitic flesh so close at hand, they began to frantically and recklessly charge at the formation.

Various noises surrounded my ears, making my scalp tingle.

"These insects are raised by Shi Aotian, the sect leader of the Black Stone Sect."

"Or perhaps, these insects are all his disciples."

insect?

Gu Lin subconsciously turned around to look at Chu Luobai.

When I met the other person's eyes, which were filled with intense sadness, my heart skipped a beat.

disciple?

Could it be that...

Gu Lin turned around abruptly and instantly released his divine sense.

A faint afterimage instantly appeared on the insect's body.

Those hideous, roaring phantoms trying to break free from the insect's body.

Seeing this, Gu Lin's pupils contracted slightly, and he managed to squeeze out a few words.

"Using human souls to feed insects..."

"Shi Aotian, you really did that."

In his previous life, Gu Lin discovered the ability to refine the human soul onto the demonic insect about half a year later.

Several leaders of various sects were also incited by Shi Aotian.

They brutally slaughtered their own disciples within the sect.

He refined it into offspring, which became his own nourishment.

Now that they know so much in advance, the disciples of those sects should be able to escape this calamity.

"I'll go in and take a look."

Gu Lin's voice was chilling, and he seemed to have just emerged from a harsh winter snowstorm.

Just looking at it from afar gives one a chilling feeling.

The anger emanating from him was like a volcano lurking beneath a thick layer of ice, ready to erupt at any moment.

Even Qiu Lin and Xiao Lin, who were standing at a distance, could feel it.

Xiao Lin's worried gaze fell on Gu Lin, then he looked at Chu Luobai.

At this moment, his senior brother gave him a sense of unfamiliarity, and he was somewhat hesitant to approach him.

But for some reason, he had a feeling that the female swordsman in front of him could stop his senior brother.

"Um, do you need my help?"

Chu Luobai had no intention of stopping them; instead, she took the initiative to ask.

"No need, my formation can only protect myself."

After Gu Lin finished speaking, he strode through the formation and walked into the cave.

The insects inside the cave smelled the scent of blood and flesh and instantly went into a frenzy.

The swarms of insects craved fresh flesh and blood, and longed for bodies to parasitize.

Gu Lin frowned as he watched the insects frantically approaching him with their mouthparts wide open.

He held a black talisman in his hand.

The moment the spiritual energy circulated, these insects vanished from their original spot.

Those annoying sounds also disappeared.

"The methods of a genius talisman cultivator are indeed formidable."

Chu Luobai exclaimed in admiration, passed through the restrictive formation, and walked to Gu Lin's side.

"It's dangerous here, Fellow Daoist Chu, it's best not to come in."

This was the first time Gu Lin had ever encountered such a bizarre, talking insect.

Seeing Chu Luobai follow him in, he couldn't help but remind him.

"It's alright, I've already taken the Spirit Protection Pill."

Chu Luobai shook his head and said meaningfully.

"Fellow Daoist Gu, would you like one?"

"No need. Such treasures should be reserved for those who need them more."

Gu Lin refused without hesitation.

Chu Luobai didn't insist. She knew that with Gu Lin's personality, even if she gave it to him, he wouldn't eat it.

Giving him one for research is enough.

“Fellow Daoist Gu is right. Let me lead the way for the rest of the journey.”

They walked into the cave with practiced ease.

Without Shi Aotian's deliberate suppression, the smell of rotting flesh and blood permeated the entire cave.

Some of the insects that Chu Luobai had previously eliminated were not completely dead.

The insect's body twisted and turned in the blood that had fallen to the ground.

Even though Gu Lin had prepared himself mentally, he still didn't expect to see such a tragic scene.

"Blood Pool, forging the soul."

"Such vicious methods are rarely used even among the demonic cultivators of the Southern Frontier."

"Where exactly did Shi Aotian, a minor sect leader in Qingzhou, learn his skills?"

Gu Lin squatted down at the edge of the blood pool.

Rays of light emanated from his fingertips and expanded outwards in concentric circles.

The larvae that had been lying dormant at the bottom of the water were awakened by the light.

Countless bubbles rose from the bottom of the water.

The gurgling sounds were like countless drowning people desperately calling for help.

Gu Lin lowered his eyes, letting the larvae gather around his hand.

Chu Luobai stood silently to the side, the only sound in the air being the popping of bubbles.

After a long while, Gu Lin slowly raised his head.

"Only by completely eliminating the influence of the blood pool through the Karmic Fire Array can the souls of these people be released."

"And was a different Demon Language Insect ever born here?"

Gu Lin carefully chose his words, unsure of how much the cultivator before him actually knew about the Demon Language Insect.

He had never met the cultivator in front of him before.

Gu Lin had a persistent feeling that the other party had seen through him.

"Fellow Daoist Gu, are you referring to the mother insect?"

Gu Lin was taken aback.

Sure enough, the female cultivator in front of him knew far more than he had imagined.

"That's right, it's the mother insect."

"The mother worm is on Shi Aotian's body. Although I intended to leave him there, but..."

Chu Luobai recounted the entire story to Gu Lin.

Gu Lin felt a chill creep down his spine as he listened.

While he was following the wrong clues, these demonic insects had already begun to wreak havoc in an unknown place.

If Chu Luobai hadn't discovered it early, Xiao Lin wouldn't have been there either.

It's uncertain how long it will take to discover this place.

At that time, all the towns in the vicinity of Blackrock Sect will become fertile ground for the Demon Whispering Worms.

The horrific scene of corpses strewn across the fields will be repeated.

In that instant, an unprecedented sense of powerlessness welled up in Gu Lin's heart.

He was in a hurry to follow the clues to the southern border, but he forgot that there were still remnants of evil forces in the Qingzhou region.

Outside the cave.

Qiu Lin and Xiao Lin stood at the cave entrance, peering inside.

A strong smell of blood wafted from the cave, and the two exchanged a glance.

"Why hasn't Senior Sister come out yet? Should we go in and check on her?"

Faced with Qiu Lin's suggestion, Xiao Lin shook his head frantically.

"It's alright, my senior brother is here, nothing will happen."

The scene of being surrounded by insects is chilling just to recall.

Qiu Lin, in particular, is almost traumatized by it.

At this moment, he admired his senior sister from the bottom of his heart, for she could still walk into the cave without changing her expression under such circumstances.

"Indeed, if the sky falls, my senior sister will hold it up."
