Chapter 42: Bustling at the Huo Residence

  "Can we get the points up?" Huo Hai said calmly. The two people finally reacted.

  "Alright, alright, I'll take care of it." As he spoke, a large pile of runes flashed on the crystal plate in front of him, and after a burst of light, all the marks on the accumulated scorecards completely disappeared.

  At the same time, he placed Ho Hai's card next to him, and after a flash of light, he returned the card to Ho Hai: "It's done, just infuse spiritual energy and you'll be able to see it." Whoever can get so many points isn't an ordinary person, no matter what, they're not someone who can be easily offended. He's not just some test administrator next door, but a cultivator with the realm of Spiritual Being.

  Huo Hai nodded, and after infusing a stream of spiritual energy, the card immediately displayed his personal information, including his name, age, and accumulated points. There were also some additional details that would only be added after he entered Huangcheng Academy.

  After confirming that there was no mistake, Huo Hai bid farewell and left under the shocked gaze of everyone. He didn't care about anyone, if he let them react, it would be troublesome. Until Huo Hai's figure disappeared, they finally came to their senses.

  "It's gone, let him go, you all wait here, I'll go back and ask what's going on." Huo Kai instructed the other elders to turn around and leave. What they didn't see was that after Huo Kai left, Huo Yan's eyes were filled with jealous and resentful glances. The other elders also had their own concerns at this time and wanted to go back and take a look.

  "Alright, settle down everyone. Time is almost up. Those who don't have enough points can come and exchange them for spirit stones. Of course, you can also keep the cards for yourselves. Anyway, by the time of the next trial, the cards will be replaced. These cards will become useless."

  The examiner's voice echoed in everyone's ears. The original plan to keep the card and sell it to other test-takers next time also fell through. Now, they could still exchange some spirit stones, but if they didn't this time, there would be no use for them next time. No wonder nobody had ever sold their leftover score cards from last time.

  Different from before, everyone present now has worries. They were really frightened by Ho Hai's previous card.

  Not long after returning home, Huo Hai caught up from behind: "Huo Hai, what's going on? How did you get so many cards. Don't tell me your cultivation has reached the Spiritual Bone realm, even if it is, that's not possible."

  Huo Kai, being an expert in the realm of spiritual boundaries, could see Huo Hai's current state at a glance and naturally wouldn't think that Huo Hai had any real strength. Huo Hai said nonchalantly: "Actually, it's very simple. I just got lucky and found 10,000 points while I was in the South Mountain." Then, Huo Hai started fabricating stories about discovering the Iron Armor Dog King's tribe.

  Then, a powerful spirit beast appeared out of nowhere and slaughtered all the Iron Armored Hounds before turning its attention to this ordinary person. Anyway, no one saw it, so who could prove anything?

  Even if a powerful spirit beast really ran over, no one saw it, and Huo Hai could say whatever he wanted. Even if there were people protecting the periphery, sometimes powerful spirit beasts could still pass through their surveillance range, and that was not impossible.

  Huo Hai didn't distrust Huo Kai, nor did he not want to speak out. The problem was, this secret method of controlling insects, how could he explain it? How could he explain its origin and its nature? And even if they believed him, what could they do about it? For the sake of the entire family, he would definitely have to hand over the method for refining the Gu insect.

  Gu insect refining is actually just a branch of a theoretical system. To hand it over to others, everything needs to be explained thoroughly. It's not much, very simple, but the power is unknown to anyone.

  The specific power depends on how strong the final insect is. This is the foundation of Huo Hai's survival in this world, and Huo Hai will not take it out easily. Moreover, those so-called family members, Huo Hai does not believe in them at all.

  In this world, there are only a few people that Ho Hai can truly believe in. As for the so-called family members, to be honest, when he was on Earth, seeing those internal struggles within families had already left Ho Hai with a sense of suspicion and fear. Since that's the case, before breaking through to the Lingzhu realm, Ho Hai wouldn't let ordinary people know about his insect secret.

  After breaking through, it doesn't matter even if you know. Just use Beast Spirit Master or Insect Spirit Master to disguise your identity. The insects that Hao Hai can raise are not comparable to those so-called Insect Spirit Masters.

  Although there were many doubts, Huo Kai still believed in the end. Huo Hai had never deceived anyone before and his character was very good all along. Plus, he had lost his memory for a period of time, so Huo Kai didn't have too much suspicion.

  The only bit of suspicion was completely dispelled a few days later. Because some people who came out revealed Ho Hai's tactics. These tactics were actually the tactics used by Ho Hai to use hidden weapons.

  That's right, hidden weapons, not insects. With a flick of his hand, a large number of starry hidden weapons were released. Using so many hidden weapons at the same time, with such incredible speed and power, and controlling them with precision. It was enough to demonstrate Ho Hai's formidable strength, in front of him, even the strongest masters of the Spiritual Blood Realm didn't have the ability to resist. This kind of strength had already surpassed that of ordinary Spiritual Bone Realm cultivators.

  With such great strength, everyone attributed it to a very mysterious hidden weapon technique. Unexpectedly, the Huo family actually hid such a powerful hidden weapon technique, if not for this matter, they really wouldn't have known about it.

  Then, the Huo family became thoroughly lively. Other large families, even medium-sized families, came one after another, hoping to observe the Huo family's hidden weapon techniques. Of course, some people were trying to probe the Huo family, while others wanted to form an alliance or surrender. The scattered cultivators thought about how to join the Huo family; such a powerful force was really too terrifying.

  Huo Hai himself was not idle, as he was being pestered by Huo Yun'er. After a long time of pestering, Huo Hai finally revealed the powerful strength of Xiao Jin and Xing Huang to Yun'er alone, but no one else knew about it.

  Even if Yun'er accidentally slips up and says something, no one will believe it. Huo Hai himself won't admit it anyway.

  Knowing how formidable these insects are, Huo Yun'er starts to pester Huo Hai. She wants Huo Hai to give Xiao Jin to her. Since Xiao Jin is now useful, it's only natural that he can't be given away. Thus, Huo Hai's gloomy days have arrived. Yun'er isn't afraid of the insects in Huo Hai's household either, and every day she sneaks into his courtyard. Outsiders who don't know the truth are envious of this brother-sister pair's good relationship.

  Helpless, Huo Hai couldn't drive people away, so he brought in a lot of beetles and continued to cultivate the Star Gu. This time, during the trial, the powerful strength of the Star Gu made Huo Hai fully realize the mighty power of this thing.

  No wonder someone said that a group of star worms could destroy everything. In this world, even if they can't destroy everything, once they really gather together, the high-ranking masters of the spiritual realm are simply unstoppable.

  In addition to cultivating new Star Gu, the old Star Gu breaking through the Ling Blood Boundary Spirit Beast also needs to be put on the agenda. Once these Star Gu complete their transformation and become Ling Blood Boundary, they can easily destroy the Iron Armor Dog King with a single attack. The number of Star Gu that died from counterattacking the Iron Armor Dog King will not exceed ten.

  At this time, the star moths have begun to transform. More than 500 star moths, one after another, in the place prepared by Huo Hai, protruded strange **, transforming themselves into an oval object. The oval object was extremely hard, even harder than the cocoon when they were first born.

  As for Huo Hai, this is within the time limit, no new star worms have been born, and the old star worms are still degenerating. Huo Hai himself has lost his strongest guarantee. Only a small Jin can protect himself by his side. So, Huo Hai will no longer leave the Huo family's courtyard.

  Now, because of Huo Hai's outstanding performance, it is unknown how many people secretly want to kill him. If he goes out, isn't that giving them an opportunity? Every day, a large number of people come to visit the family. The purposes are varied, and most of them are related to Huo Hai. Precisely because of these people, Huo Kai cannot ignore them, or else he would offend too many people.

  These days, the higher-ups in the family have been living a life of pain and joy. The pain is because they don't have any free time at all, and even their cultivation time is almost gone.

  As for happiness, it's something that others bring. Those who want to get in good with the Huo family have been sending over precious gifts. These things alone are enough to match the entire Huo family's income for one or two years.

  These people are crazy, Hao Hai is annoyed. Just now, another family came with their daughter to visit. No wonder, this is for Hao Hai's sake, wanting the two families to be in-laws. Hao Kai hasn't thought about such things yet, so he simply declined them all. If he really liked someone, he would probably offend other families with similar intentions.

  People outside the family are crazy about getting into the family, and inside the family, it's not peaceful either. Huo Hai's hidden weapon technique has the ability to challenge across levels. This is something that has never appeared before, how can it not shock people?

  After searching the entire library, no one found any records of this hidden weapon technique. Later on, not even a single elder had learned this hidden weapon technique. Some people began to speculate wildly. Is this a unique method exclusive to the direct descendants? Or did the direct descendants deliberately hide it away so that others wouldn't surpass them?

  Some people with various thoughts began to think about how to get this method. Huo Hai was always in his own yard and never came out, so they had no chance. Huo Kai was also very busy and didn't have time during the day.

  After a while, when Huo Hai left, the opportunity became even more elusive. No way, I must get it done as soon as possible.
