Chapter 16: Star Gu

  Chapter Sixteen: Star Gu

  I don't know what kind of Gu insect to refine, but refining some is always better than nothing. With Huo Hai's current strength, he doesn't have the ability to subdue powerful insects, so he can only use these ordinary insects as substitutes.

  I remember reading an introduction about the Star Gu somewhere, saying that it was made by refining a small insect called San Tu, which is very simple but extremely powerful. This wasn't something I read in the book left to me by my grandmother, but rather something I saw online before. Even Ho Hai himself had forgotten about it. However, when it comes to the power of this Star Gu, Ho Hai was very well aware of it.

  "Heh heh, ants can kill an elephant with their bites. If the quality of the ants improves, it'll be even more formidable. What if we replace them with wasps? Anyway, this world can't find any three-tracks insects, so let's just use other substitutes." This is what Hao Hai thought.

  So-called star worms, in essence, are just physically hard, with sharp teeth, and at most, add a good stomach. A large number of star worms are like locusts, wherever they pass, can be described as destroying everything. And after gathering together, it can also be used for defense. As long as it is controlled properly, it can even be used as a kind of magic spell. Huo Hai has been envying them for a long time.

  Think about it, with just a wave of my hand, I can intercept any attack. A large number of Star Worms charge forward, devouring everything in their path, how refreshing is that? If I can gather a big enough group, even if it's just the Spirit Bone realm, Huo Hai will be completely defeated.

  "Insects, need to be hard, so it's best to use beetles, teeth? Insect teeth are not bad. But still need to choose, use those with relatively strong teeth, well, this kind is good. What medicinal materials should be used?"

  Huo Hai muttered to himself as he thought about what he needed to do. The time spent observing the insects hadn't been wasted, and neither had his attempts at identifying the medicinal properties of the herbs. In fact, his knowledge of these herbs had even saved him from suffering a great deal. Fortunately, with the support of the spiritual energy, Huo Hai hadn't ended up like Shen Nong Shi, who had nearly died from poisoning.

  Now that I've reached the Spiritual Blood Realm, it's easier to withstand the medicinal effects. Some lower-grade spiritual medicines can even be tried out.

  The art of insect cultivation has been passed down for so many years, and now there's only this little left, fortunately, these are the true essence. Hao Hai wants to continue researching, can only rely on his own efforts, bit by bit, no one can rely on anyone else.

  The little bug was easy to find, and Huo Hai soon found a very suitable beetle. He even found another insect as an ingredient for the star hook. This insect had no other abilities, but it was highly adaptable. It had a good appetite and its recovery ability was extremely strong. Just like the gecko, it could regenerate its limbs after they were cut off, making it a great material to withstand impact.

  Two kinds of insects were caught in large numbers, and there were many more insects in Huo Hai's yard. As before, the insects were first fed a large amount of herbal medicine. The herbs were carefully tested by Huo Hai according to his previous prescription.

  Able to stimulate the desire for insects to devour each other, and also stimulate blood vessels, allowing insects to evolve. Spiritual energy is even more indispensable, after breaking through, Ho Hai can provide more spiritual energy. At the same time, feeding so many insects, there is no problem at all.

  A large amount of spiritual energy was fed into these little bugs, and their strength was growing to a visible degree.

  "It's almost done, now it can be refined. Unfortunately, there is no blood of a higher spiritual beast, otherwise the effect will definitely be better." Huo Hai shook his head and put these insects into jars one by one according to the proportion.

  He put in some ordinary beast blood, which also had a special technique to refine his own blood. The blood was not much, but just enough to make these insects recognize themselves as the master. After that, Huo Hai divided these things into jars and sealed them. Next, he placed the jar mouth on one side and didn't care about it anymore. Whether the insect was strong or weak didn't matter, as long as it succeeded.

  This world has a good environment, rich spiritual energy, and the medicinal materials have excellent efficacy. Huo Hai had already discovered that in this world, refining Gu insects would greatly increase the success rate. Gu insects were just a consumable item at present, and Huo Hai didn't attach much importance to them.

  In the following days, Hao Hai was as usual, every day was cultivation and research, life was very fulfilling. The effect of perfecting his body was to make Hao Hai's cultivation of spiritual techniques faster and more effective.

  Huo Hai, in order to avoid his cultivation rising too quickly, even spent a large amount of time practicing various combat skills. After several days, Huo Hai's combat strength had surpassed that of most high-level Spiritual Blood Realm experts, except for the fact that he lacked actual combat experience.

  That day, Huo Hai was outside catching insects when the sky suddenly darkened. Was it going to rain? But he felt that the humidity in the air wasn't very heavy. Huo Hai looked puzzled, put down the insects he had temporarily caught, and raised his head to look up at the sky. As soon as he did, his eyes widened in shock. "Heavens! What's going on? What is this?"

  In the air, appearing in sight, was actually a huge ship. No mistake, it was a boat, and even a large one with three masts. The surroundings of the ship were filled with various decorations, on which something was written or painted.

  The hull had a huge emblem on it, and from afar, it looked like a sword was stuck in the body of some kind of monster. The pattern was very strange and should be the emblem of some kind of force. But how did such a large ship fly up? Huo Hai's face was shocked: "Heavens, the technology of this world is even higher than that of Earth."

  No wonder Huo Hai was shocked, this thing is really too terrifying. Such a huge ship, how did it fly up there? If the earth can do it, it will definitely be a big deal. Not only Huo Hai, but everyone who sees it now is watching.

  Some people were hurt because they put down what was in their hands and didn't react. "What is this, how can the boat still fly in the sky? Are those spiritual beasts in front pulling the boat?"

  At this moment, a voice rang out not far away. Huo Hai turned his head to look and unexpectedly the person who came was He Yao, the second young master of the He family. Unexpectedly, after several days passed, such a big change occurred in the He family, and many people were implicated. He Yao actually still managed to run out and cause trouble, looking at his appearance, he seemed even more pleased with himself than before, not caring about what happened to his family at all.

  Hu Hai knew that, with the help of this incident, his father had eliminated a large number of people who opposed him in the family, and those who remained were relatively sensitive to their status and not easy to be taken care of, but their power was basically emptied.

  The power of the host increased, and as the second son of the host, he naturally rose with the tide. More people fawned on him, and it's no wonder that He Ya would behave in this way. I heard that Chu Yun Tian has come out again, and He Ya is bringing people to bully him.

  If it weren't for a huge ship suddenly flying in mid-air, I'm afraid the two people would have met by now.

  He Yaya also noticed Huo Hai's gaze, and suddenly became serious: "Haha, you guys who don't know the world, let me tell you. This emblem is the Cloud Chariot of Nan Yun Imperial City Academy, and those spirit beasts pulling the Cloud Chariot are specially cultivated by the academy. Even if we put it in our Western Frontier, not even our great families can cultivate them."

  Huo Hai nodded, and indeed, although they were far away and couldn't be seen clearly. But Huo Hai could feel that these spirit beasts pulling the flying boat had at least reached the Spirit Bone realm. With the abilities of spirit beasts, in the Foundation Building realm, they were much stronger than humans.

  Being able to raise so many Ling Bone Realm spirit beasts, even using them as carriage pullers, is indeed not something that ordinary powers can achieve. What surprised Huo Hai was that this Nán Yún country actually had such a powerful force, it seemed that he had truly been narrow-minded.

  "Second Young Master, what is the Cloud Chariot of the Imperial City Academy doing here? Did someone offend them and they've come to take revenge? This is troublesome. Even with these spirit beasts, there aren't many people in our Western Frontier who can handle them." As he spoke, the surrounding people began to feel fearful. When experts fight, ordinary people like them are always the ones most likely to get caught in the crossfire.

  He Yaya rolled her eyes: "Nonsense, the Imperial City College was founded by the royal family of Nanyun Country. How could they possibly attack their own western border? If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense. If you offend someone from above and something happens, you'll be the ones to blame."

  Everyone immediately shut their mouths, how much of this is real fear and how much is fake, Ho Hai can no longer tell. However, it's clear that many people are deliberately trying to curry favor with He, which is why they're acting like this.

  As expected, the mentally satisfied He Yao slowly opened his mouth and said: "Every ten years, the Imperial City College will come to our Western Border to recruit a batch of students. The requirements are under 30 years old, with good talent. Those who can enter the Imperial City College are all geniuses. Our Western Border's several family elders were from the Imperial City College in the past."

  "So it was like that, then Second Master, you will definitely succeed, right?" The servants all burst into a chorus of agreement.

  Just as He was excited, a voice suddenly sounded from afar: "It's him, this waste, who wants to join the Imperial City Academy. However, it's also true that if he uses his family's quota, he can indeed join. This quota is something that every family has to pay a great price for." Upon hearing this, Huo Hai immediately knew that someone was looking down on He.

  I already know enough today. Large families can spend a lot of resources to get quotas, isn't this the same as the money-making methods of those universities in the past? Give money and let them in, but in this world, just having money is not enough, the family must also have a certain status.

  Upon hearing this, Huo Hai didn't react, but He Ya exploded in anger: "Who, which bastard was it?" He Ya glared around with his eyes, as if he would pounce on whoever said it and give them a good beating.

  "What I said, how is it? Are you, Master He's young master, still thinking of using force?" A slender gentleman slowly walked out, shaking a fan in his hand. Upon seeing this person, the overbearing and arrogant aura immediately shrunk down.

  "So it's you, don't think I'm afraid of you, just relying on your family, what's the big deal." The words that followed were spoken in a low voice.
