Immortal Road

"This matter is of great importance. I need to think about it carefully before I can give you an answer!" Chen Shang said after thinking for a long time.

Shi Chuan bowed and said, "This matter does require you to think about it carefully. I will wait for your order!"

In a blink of an eye, more than ten days have passed.

Shi Chuan sat cross-legged. This place is full of spiritual power and is a holy place for cultivation.

Shi Chuan is not in a hurry about this matter, and he knows very well that Chen Shang will definitely agree with his suggestion.

Chen Shang has been trapped here for many years, and the number of demon insects has gradually increased. If this continues, Chen Shang will not see any hope.

Shi Chuan's suggestion of raising insects and treating insects, although it is extremely harmful to Chen Shang, is the only way to solve the dilemma of demon insects.

The reason for making this suggestion is that Shi Chuan has seen through Chen Shang. This person is cunning by nature. It is probably not an easy thing for Shi Chuan to leave this place. In this case, Shi Chuan might as well go all out and try every possible way to weaken Chen Shang's strength.

As for Xiao Tian Zong, even if Shi Chuan wants to go now, there is no way. Chen Shang would never let Ishikawa leave easily.

And Ishikawa was also very clear that the five great monks of Xiaotian Sect must have done something to him. If he did not show up for a long time, it would definitely arouse their suspicion.

As for whether they could find this place and fight Chen Shang, it was not what Ishikawa considered.

What Ishikawa could do now was to gain the trust of Chen Shang and then escape from here.

While Chen Shang was considering, Ishikawa introduced the Star Soul Ancient God into the sea of ​​consciousness so that he could hear his conversation with Chen Shang.

The reason for doing so was that Ishikawa believed that his consciousness was enough to restrain the Star Soul Ancient God. Once there was any abnormality, he could immediately take it into the Immortal Mansion. Second. Although Ishikawa had a lifespan of more than a thousand years, he certainly could not compare with Chen Shang, a giant who existed at the beginning of the universe, so he had to ask the Star Soul Ancient God for some advice to avoid any loopholes.

After another full month, Chen Shang talked to Ishikawa for the first time.

"My friend, after careful consideration, I think your plan is feasible, but taming spirit insects is not an easy task!"

"Since I have proposed this suggestion, I naturally know a thing or two about taming spirit insects. However, my spiritual consciousness is weak and I cannot control a large number of demon insects, so I still need you to control these demon insects yourself!" Ishikawa bowed.

Ishikawa had long understood that Chen Shang would never give him the control of the demon insects, after all, this was a matter of life and death.

"The matter of taming demon insects. Just leave it to you, I trust you!"

After hearing this, Ishikawa was a little surprised. This was something I had never thought of.

The Star Soul Ancient God sneered and said, "There is nothing surprising about this. If he could tame demon insects, he would have done so long ago. Would it be your turn to teach him?"

"Thank you for your advice, senior!" Ishikawa responded with his spiritual thoughts.

"The reason why Chen Shang took a month to reply to you is probably to see if you are worthy of his trust. And according to my guess, he will never let you tame too many demon insects. Once a certain number is reached, he will definitely let you control the demon insects to fight against the demon insects outside!" Xinghun Ancient God said again.

"This junior has already anticipated this!"

……………………

Ishikawa and Xinghun Ancient God both saw through Chen Shang's intentions. But these are not what Ishikawa can control.

"Here are the demon insect mothers I carefully selected, about fifteen species, you can choose a few of them to cultivate! I will give you a year to see how the effect is!" After Chen Shang finished speaking. Fifteen demon insect mothers appeared in front of Ishikawa.

These demon insect mothers, the largest one is more than half a person's length. The abdomen is huge, and the smallest one is only the size of a thumb, with golden light on the body, which is very dazzling.

There are probably thousands of demon insects attached to Chen Shang. The ones that can be selected by Chen Shang must be the most ferocious and the fastest breeding among the demon insects.

Taming demon insects is not a complicated matter. Since the intelligence of the demon insect mothers is extremely weak, Ishikawa subdued all fifteen demon insect mothers without much effort.

Ishikawa waved his hand and sent out several wood spiritual powers, which were injected into the bodies of the demon insect mothers.

Then he waited slowly.

After several hours, the demon insect mothers began to lay eggs one after another, mostly dozens of eggs.

The smallest demon insect mother only laid one.

It only took an hour for the demon insect eggs to hatch, and hundreds of demon insects crawled around in front of Ishikawa.

Because they were in Chen Shang's body, the demon insects did not need to deliberately look for food. They dug Chen Shang's body on the spot to feed the mother insects.

In Ishikawa's consciousness, every move of these demon insects was clear.

The demon insect mothers quickly laid eggs under the feeding of the demon insects, and they hatched quickly. So on and so forth. After dozens of days, Ishikawa was surrounded by demon insects.

Tens of thousands of demon insects were flying around Ishikawa. Due to the abundance of food, the reproduction speed of the demon insect mother increased greatly, from dozens of eggs at the beginning to thousands of eggs.

The fastest-reproducing demon insects could actually grow by tens of thousands in a day.

Such an extraordinary reproduction speed was somewhat unexpected for Ishikawa.

In a year, how many demon insects would reach?

And the demon insects on Chen Shang were countless. With such a huge base number, the number of demon insects reproduced every day was probably a sky-high number.

Ishikawa once again realized the power of Chenshang's spiritual power. If he were an ordinary person, he would not be able to support such a large number of demon insects.

When the demon insects grow larger, conflicts will arise between them.

Although Ishikawa can control these demon insects through the demon insect mother, the demon insects' aggressive nature cannot be changed.

More importantly, Ishikawa cannot control every demon insect.

So Ishikawa had to disperse the fifteen demon insect mothers and set a range of activities for each group of demon insects to prevent casualties caused by fighting between demon insects.

Ishikawa's spiritual sense is not too weak, but when the number of demon insects reaches hundreds of thousands, Ishikawa has already found that his spiritual sense cannot be controlled.

At the same time, this is also what Ishikawa is puzzled about. The demon insect mother's intelligence is very weak, and her spiritual sense is even weaker. But she can easily control hundreds of thousands, or even tens of thousands of demon insects, and as the demon insect swarm grows, the spiritual sense of the demon insect mother will gradually increase.

When the total number of demon insects reached one million, the pressure on Ishikawa's spiritual consciousness was already very huge and he could not bear it.

Ishikawa had to stop the reproduction of the demon insect mother and concentrate on studying the problem of the growth of the demon insect mother's spiritual consciousness.

After dozens of days of research, Ishikawa found that the demon insect mother did not control the demon insect swarm through spiritual consciousness. Instead, it condensed the spiritual consciousness of all demon insects into one.

Therefore, the entire demon insect swarm was like a whole. When the demon insect mother issued an order, the demon insect swarm moved in unison without any chaos.

It was for this reason that the larger the demon insect mother's group, the stronger its spiritual consciousness.

However, for Ishikawa, it seemed not an easy thing to strengthen his spiritual consciousness by absorbing the spiritual consciousness of demon insects.

There was a natural difference between demon insects and human cultivators. Unless there was a special method, it would be difficult for Ishikawa to control the demon insect swarm like the demon insect mother.

Ishikawa could only settle for the second best and no longer try to control all demon insects, but to control the demon insect mother.

In each demon insect swarm, more than a hundred powerful demon insects were found. These more than a hundred demon insects were controlled by the demon insect mother, and then all demon insects were controlled by more than a hundred demon insects.

Although this would cause the demon insects to move slowly. But at least it can ensure that Ishikawa can control these demon insect swarms normally.

During this period, Ishikawa also carefully studied the differences between these demon insects.

The demon insects bred by the largest demon insect mother. They are huge in size, with their forelimbs transformed into giant claws, which are extremely sharp. Each demon insect can deal with several other demon insects.

There are also some demon insects that can secrete highly toxic substances, and only a small amount can kill a large number of demon insects.

It’s just that the amount of this highly toxic substance produced is very small, and once the highly toxic substance is secreted, it will cause the other demon insects controlled by Ishikawa to be poisoned and die.

But it is undeniable that this kind of demon insect is a natural killer. If you encounter a huge demon insect swarm, you only need to sacrifice a small number of this kind of demon insects to destroy the opponent’s demon insect swarm.

In addition, there are strange monster insects that can control the power of fire and ice spirits. Compared with ordinary monster insects, their damage is stronger, but their bodies are very weak. Even ordinary monster insects can be easily bitten to death.

What Ishikawa is most interested in is the smallest golden monster insect.

This monster insect has a very weak reproduction ability and can only reproduce a few per day, but the spiritual power consumed by this monster insect is more than that of the largest monster insect mother.

Each golden monster insect is like a carefully refined sharp blade. Its shell is extremely hard and its mouthparts are extremely sharp. Moreover, the body of the golden monster insect contains a lot of spiritual power. Once this monster insect is damaged, it is very likely to cause the monster insect to explode, and its power is comparable to that of a thunder bead.

"Friend Shi, the one-year period is about to end. Although you have tamed a large number of monster insects, you cannot compare with the monster insect swarms outside. Once you fight with the monster insects outside, these monster insects will definitely die! Then repeat this cycle over and over again. What good is it for you to do this?" The Star Soul Ancient God suddenly said to Ishikawa.

"Thank you for your concern, senior!" Ishikawa looked at the demon insects all over the sky and smiled, "I had already thought of it when I proposed to use insects to control insects. But I have other plans!"

A year is about to come, and during this period, Chen Shang has never appeared again.

But Ishikawa is very clear that his every move is under the attention of Chen Shang.

However, there is no flaw in Ishikawa's performance, and only Ishikawa knows his ultimate goal.

In the body of each demon insect mother, there is a special egg.

This egg will develop into a new demon insect mother.

If in the outside world, after the demon insect group reaches a certain number, this egg will be produced and bred into a new demon insect mother, so there will often be several demon insect mothers in a group of demon insects.

These demon insect mothers breed together and control the demon insect group together.

But in most cases, the new demon insect mother will choose to lead some demon insects to leave the demon insect group and become a new demon insect group.

Under Ishikawa's deliberate control, the special eggs in all the demon insect mothers' bellies did not develop further, but continued to absorb spiritual power and grow.

On the surface, Ishikawa only controlled fifteen demon insect mothers, but in fact, there were thirty demon insect mothers, fifteen of which only accumulated spiritual power and did not reproduce.

Although Chen Shang was familiar with demon insects, he would never have thought of the eggs in the demon insect mother's belly.

This was Ishikawa's final trump card.
