Chapter 174 - Upper Limit of Success
Chapter 174: Upper Limit of Success
“Master!”
Poisonous insects used the spirit of many people as food, and then grew but the upper limit of each poisonous insect was innate.
Like the nine-headed worm, it could be said that only a few magical beasts could have this upper limit of growth.
And the nine-headed worm’s growth ingredient was the power of energy and blood!
However, it was very difficult for it to obtain a large amount of the power of energy and blood!
After all, if it were to directly devour it, it would only be flesh and blood, it would not have much to do with the power of energy and blood.
Moreover, here, if another life entered, the competition would be extremely intense!
Here, they were all poisonous insects, thus the nine-headed worm’s illusory realm would be greatly weakened on other poisonous insects.
And here, if the nine-headed worm’s illusion was weakened, it would not be able to hold on.
Thus, it was very difficult for the nine-headed worm to give birth to a third head.
The nine-headed worm cried out in surprise, but quickly closed its eyes and started to absorb the power of energy and blood given to it by Lin Ming!
He knew that this opportunity was too rare.
Moreover, as a poisonous insect that used the power of energy and blood to grow itself, it knew how pure the power of energy and blood that was given to it by Lin Ming was!
At this moment, he was like a dry ground, being injected with water, desperately absorbing water!
“Pull!”
Suddenly, a crack appeared on the nine-headed worm’s head!
And with the appearance of this crack, the nine-headed worm’s breakthrough had an opportunity!
“Master! Please continue to give me a portion of the power of energy and blood!”
The nine-headed worm spoke with extreme excitement.
It had not been able to break through after so many years. At this moment, it had just recognized Lin Ming as its master, and it had already obtained the opportunity to breakthrough!
It could be said that one move from Lin Ming could save it many, many years of cultivation time.
“Okay.”
Lin Ming nodded. The nine-headed worm had now signed a contract with him. The power that it could grow would be useful to him.
Moreover, this nine-headed worm only had two heads at this moment, and it could control a level-9 mage.
This was enough to prove how terrifying the nine-headed worm was.
If the nine-headed worm successfully gave birth to a third head, it could directly let a level-10 expert enter the third layered dreamland.
In the future battles, Lin Ming would not even need to fight.
Moreover, it could also control a level-10 expert.
This was practically a godly battle weapon.
Moreover, the nine-headed worm’s growth limit wasn’t limited to just three heads.
Six heads could create six layered dreamland, trapping even Sage Realm experts within.
If it had nine heads, it would be comparable to a high-tier magical beast like the Dragon clan.
With such a growth limit, Lin Ming was willing to spend some effort to nurture it.
Furthermore, it had a contract with him. Unless the nine-headed worm broke through to the God-tier, he did not dare to have any thoughts.
“Crack!”
The nine-headed worm’s head had finally broken out from the crack!
The nine-headed worm’s body had already begun to tremble.
Of course, this was not caused by pain, but by excitement.
However, although the head had been born, it was very small.
This was because its strength had yet to reach perfection.
Nine-headed worm still needed to grow!
However, in Lin Ming’s hands, not only had the nine-headed worm broken through, Lin Ming had also saved it the remaining time.
The power of energy and blood in Lin Ming’s hands became even denser, directly surrounding the nine-headed worm.
The nine-headed worm fiercely absorbed the power within.
As time passed, the nine-headed worm’s third head had already grown to almost the same size as the first two heads.
Lin Ming continued to let the nine-headed worm absorb it.
In the end, this last head even exceeded the first two heads!
Lin Ming stopped injecting his power of energy and blood, and the nine-headed worm also grew to three heads in a short period of time!
“Thank you, Master!”
The nine-headed worm thanked Lin Ming from the bottom of its heart.
“Whose deceptive technique is the strongest here?”
Lin Ming asked.
“Naturally, it’s the blue poisonous bee that calls itself the Bewitch King,” the nine-headed worm said.
“However, his upper limit is only level ten. Master helped me break through this time, and his strength is no longer as good as mine,” the nine-headed worm said respectfully.
In the past, the nine-headed worm had been suppressed by the blue poisonous bee.
However, it was different at this moment. Because of his bloodline, even if he had just broken through, he could still suppress the blue poisonous bee.
“Also, his strength has reached its limit. Master doesn’t need to pay attention to him.”
The nine-headed worm spoke again.
“Okay.”
Lin Ming nodded.
A level-10 blue poisonous bee was indeed not worth his effort.
The nine-headed worm that signed the contract this time had the most potential on this plate and was the strongest poisonous insect at this moment.
“Let’s go to the next plate.”
Lin Ming opened his mouth and flew towards summer plate with the nine-headed worm.
As the illusion was broken, the exit of the spring plate was exposed in front of them.
“Save me!”
Suddenly, a voice sounded.
Lin Ming turned his head. It was the level-9 mage that he had just saved, but had left him.
Lin Ming turned his head, but did not make a move.
Since he was willing to leave, and had no intention of repaying his kindness, Lin Ming did not have the responsibility again.
After all, Lin Ming was the one who saved this kind of ungrateful person. He had done his best.
With Lin Ming’s departure, this level-9 mage was once again controlled by the poisonous insects here.
And this time, he would be controlled for the rest of his life.
“Do you understand this plate?”
Lin Ming asked the nine-headed worm.
“I don’t. Actually, each plate has its own seal. If I did not acknowledge you as my master, without the existence of the contract power, I would not be able to pass through this plate,” the nine-headed worm shook its three heads and said.
Mountain Wuqi had a common seal, and each plate had its own seal.
The seal was one layer after another. Thus, until this moment, the terrifying existences of Mountain Wuqi couldn’t leave this place and endanger the human world.
After all, if any one of them left this place, the outside world would find it hard to resist.
“Mm. Summer plate is extremely hot. Can you resist it?”
Lin Ming nodded and asked the nine-headed worm.
“Yes. Our physical strength is the same as the Dragon clan’s.”
The nine-headed worm nodded.
“That’s good.”
Lin Ming smiled. The nine-headed worm had always compared him to the Dragon clan. It was quite interesting.
If the nine-headed worm couldn’t resist the hot temperature, then all his efforts would have been in vain.
“Let’s go.”
As Lin Ming spoke, they entered the summer plate.
Lin Ming’s clothes curled up the moment he entered.
Lin Ming smiled and changed into his magic clothes.
Lin Ming was a fire mage to begin with, and his body was extremely strong.
The temperature here had no effect on Lin Ming at all.
It was even beneficial to Lin Ming’s cultivation!
