In the world of "Covering the Sky," one can refine Gu (a type of poison) to become an immo

Chapter 63: The Opening of Pandora's Box (2k)

"What are your qualifications?"

Ye Fan looked at the two unconscious, vegetative people with curiosity and asked.

"One is 60%, the other is 20%. But it doesn't matter, just use the Blood Skull Gu essence to refine your blood and it will help them improve."

Sha Xiao tossed two strength-enhancing Gu worms to Ye Fan and asked, "This one is 60% a second-stage Human Strength Gu, and this one is 20% a second-stage Bull Strength Gu. Which chicken's orifice do you want?"

Ye Fan smiled upon hearing this. A chicken? It really is!

He kept a straight face, thought for a moment, and said, "I want the one with the bull's strength. The Heavenly Horn Extreme Strength Gu is also made of beastly power, and its hollow cavity should be more suitable for carrying the Immortal Gu."

Sha Xiao gave a thumbs-up and smiled, "A wise choice."

As he spoke, he directed Ye Fan and the vegetative patient holding the thick oath to sit facing each other, and began to teach Ye Fan how to activate the killing move, Borrowing Aperture: "Ye Zi, first activate the Borrowing Power Gu on Chicken Number Two. Then, use the Hope Gu to activate his empty aperture. Finally, have him carve the oath inside the empty aperture."

Sha Xiao patted Ye Fan on the shoulder: "The difficulty of this killing move lies mostly in accurately activating the Borrowing Gu to locate the acupoint and getting the opponent to voluntarily sign an oath, but in the current situation, that's not a problem for us."

Ye Fan nodded, took a deep breath, and activated the Gu worm.

The True Essence was injected into the Power-Borrowing Gu, and its whole body trembled violently. Shining divine patterns appeared on its body, which were traces of the intertwining of humanity and power.

It looked at Chicken No. 2, the one who had signed the oath, as if it had seen some kind of treasure.

The Gu leaped off Ye Fan's shoulder, unfurled a pair of gliders on its back, and flew towards the chicken's belly.

Soon, it stood on the abdomen of broiler chicken number two and kept banging and tapping.

A moment later, as if it had found something, it dug open the abdomen of Chicken Number Two and transformed into a stream of light, merging into the wound.

"Hmm..."

'

The second broiler chicken, whose consciousness had become numb and who was like a vegetable, suddenly turned deathly pale, its eyes flickering as if in extreme pain.

Sha Xiao held the wooden-like Gu worm in her hand and sneered coldly: "Heh heh, want to wake up? You'd better just stay asleep and die."

The Gu worm in his hand was a fourth-order numb Gu that he had refined from the Dao traces extracted from these plant-like individuals after he accepted the memories of Immortal Venerable Yuanlian.

"Pang Bo, give me the Mind Power Gu!"

Sha Xiaochao waved to Pang Bo.

"oh oh."

Pang Bo quickly handed the Mind Power Gu to Sha Xiao.

The light emanating from the fourth-level numbness gu and the fifth-level mental strength gu merged together, resembling a green vine.

Sha Xiao manipulated the vines, which were both light and solid, to insert into the mind of Chicken No. 2 and began to modify him.

This is precisely the numbness-inducing killing move that Sha Xiao developed using the true meaning of the Yuanlian!

This deadly move can make a person forget that they are human.

From then on, his thinking became rigid, and he became a vegetable, without pain or feeling, only able to obey orders.

As the light continued to shine in, the pain on Chicken Number Two's face lessened and became more peaceful.

"Turtle~~~"

Pang Bo felt a chill run down his spine as he looked at Chicken Number Two, whose face grew increasingly pale but whose expression remained even calmer.

Finally, as the person's face grew calmer, in no time at all, the Gu that borrowed strength emerged from the abdomen of Chicken No. 2, carrying a huge, semi-transparent egg on its back.

The spherical object, which was semi-transparent in appearance, had densely packed golden runes engraved inside its cavity.

"Is this what they call an empty cavity?"

Pang Bo looked at the transparent sphere with its ever-changing light barrier and sighed.

This small ball is a treasure that symbolizes their life cultivation.

"Heave-ho, heave-ho," the Gu with its borrowed strength dragged the hollow into Ye Fan's abdomen with great effort, and pushed it in forcefully, wiping its forehead as if it were a real person.

The moment the orifice entered Ye Fan's body, his aura instantly increased.

Ye Fan suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Sha Xiao with a complicated expression.

"Phew—Old Sha, your method...is really effective."

'

He sighed, his words hesitant and ambiguous.

Sha Xiao patted Ye Fan on the shoulder and laughed, "Don't worry, I won't exploit everyone. Besides, as long as it's not excessive, plenty of people will offer themselves up willingly, so I have no need to plunder."

Ye Fan was stunned for a moment, his expression becoming even more desolate.

Because he knew that Sha Xiao was right.

Those who were originally incapable of cultivation, by offering their empty apertures to someone with better aptitude as a backup resource, also gained the capital for cultivation.

When he gave up on those empty apertures that couldn't keep up with him, those people, after regaining their empty apertures, didn't need to cultivate anymore and directly ascended to heaven in one step.

Or rather, in the future, people might even fight over a void that a cultivation genius like him could offer.

"This is truly opening Pandora's box..."

Ye Fan couldn't help but shudder and sigh at the thought of that cyberpunk future.

"Hehe, instead of thinking so much, let's take care of ourselves first."

"Besides, if you don't tell and I don't tell, no one will know about this killer move, and the problem will be solved, right?"

Sha Xiao retrieved the Power-Borrowing Gu and sat down in front of Chicken No. 1, smiling and comforting Ye Fan.

However, he knew in his heart that this killing move had already appeared and must have been recorded by the Great Dao.

In the future, as the art of Gu (poisonous insects) develops, someone will definitely figure out this technique on their own.

Even if they don't tell anyone, it's only a matter of time.

After Sha Xiao finished speaking, his thoughts sank into his mind and activated the fifth-level power killing move—Borrowing the Aperture.

"well..

"

Ye Fan sighed and sat down cross-legged, adjusting to controlling the two acupoints simultaneously while protecting Sha Xiao.

Seeing this, Pang Bo shrugged and dragged a few wild beasts to the edge of the lava, cleaned them up, and ate them.

For a moment, apart from the gurgling sound of lava and the rustling of the Thousand-Mile Wolf Spiders, there was no other sound in the underground cavern.

Time passed second by second, and I don't know how much time had gone by.

Suddenly, the Thousand-Mile Wolf Spiders all stood up at the same time and looked in the dark direction where the lava was flowing.

"Um?"

Ye Fan opened his eyes, his mind becoming alert.

He summoned the Gravity Gu and other powerful killing moves, and a wave of force swept across the direction that the Thousand-Mile Earth Wolf Spider was wary of.

Soon, the force wave returned with the message that two hundred meters away from Ye Fan, a humanoid figure was precisely walking towards them.

"How could they have fooled the Thousand-Mile Wolf Spider at such close range?"

Both Sha Xiao and Pang Bo used their killing moves and were dealing with their openings. They could not be disturbed and the battle had to be kept out.

A glint flashed in Ye Fan's eyes, and his mind raced through a thousand thoughts in an instant.

A Heavenly Horn Extreme Gu was seen perched on his shoulder, its divine power surging from the Spring of Life, silently dragging itself toward the approaching person.

"Cough cough..."

'

A low cough sounded, the tone uncertain: "Sha Xiao, are you really here?"
