Two Realms Shuttle Gate: Don’t Call Me a Demon! - Chapter 871 - 871: no.478: top grade eight refinement gu_2

“Su Saint Heir!”

“Saint Heir!”

“Saint Heir!”

“Saint Heir!”

Amidst the thunderous cheers, Su Jie’s status once again ascended luxuriously, from a disciple catching insects to the Demon Sect Saint Child of Ghost Ridge Palace, second only to one, above all.

……

Ten days later.

In a desolate and uninhabited forest valley in the Ghost Ridge Palace’s region, Su Jie appeared here.

Upon returning to the Ghost Ridge Palace, Su Jie did not rush to venture out again, but stayed in Ghost Ridge Palace to recuperate and rejuvenate.

Bang!

On the ground ahead, a hill seemed like a beating heart, constantly collapsing and expanding.

Upon closer inspection, what hill was that? It was clearly a gigantic insect cocoon, enormous and coiled, resembling a hill.

This insect cocoon was naturally the thousand-hand centipede. Su Jie stayed in Ghost Ridge Palace primarily to strengthen the thousand-hand centipede.

Having obtained so many trophies from the Purple Mist Sect, just the number of top grade spirit stones alone was eight thousand, worth eight million low grade spirit stones. If counted as middle grade and low grade spirit stones, simply the spirit stones in Su Jie’s possession, not counting other treasures, amounted to twenty million low grade spirit stones.

Su Jie did not hold onto these spirit stones, except for a part used as an energy supply for the flying magical boat, the rest were all used to strengthen the thousand-hand centipede.

After Su Jie advanced to the Secret Realm, he gained the ability to strengthen poisonous insects, and the thousand-hand centipede had been strengthened by Su Jie many times in the past.

This kind of strengthening was more like upgrading car parts than spirit refining.

Su Jie consumed over ten million spirit stones, strengthening the fangs, insect armor, corpse hands, six wings, and more of the thousand-hand centipede, significantly boosting its power once again.

It’s no exaggeration to say, even if the thousand-hand centipede was just a top grade seven refinements, it could easily defeat a normal top grade eight linked gu worm.

During the strengthening process, Su Jie continuously fed the thousand-hand centipede a large number of poison insects, pushing it to the brink of a breakthrough. It was now evolving towards a top grade eight refinement gu worm.

As time passed day by day, another half month went by.

The insect cocoon, swelling to its limit, showed cracks. In this human-abandoned desolate place, a primitive aura spread out, a chilling murderous aura rose, and the rolling mountains seemed to tremble as if some ancient creature was about to awaken.

During this time, the weather shifted dramatically, and in the sky, dark clouds gathered, lightning flashed, and thunder roared, as if the wrath of gods was rolling across the heavens.

Crash!

A blinding light streaked across the sky, shooting straight into the insect cocoon on the ground.

This was traversing the thunder tribulation, and compared to cultivators, the risk for poisonous insects undergoing tribulation was greater, with even a slight mishap risking being annihilated by the heavens.

As the lightning tribulation struck the insect cocoon, dazzling arcs of electricity splashed around, and the next moment, were absorbed by the cocoon, seemingly becoming nutrients for its nurturing.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

More tribulation lightning struck down, each bolt like a celestial dragon roaring onto the cocoon, as if even the heavens wished to prevent the birth of a monster.

Yet even these terrifying lightning tribulations did not greatly affect the being inside the cocoon.

With an earth-shattering roar, countless beams of purple light burst forth from the cocoon, tearing it apart.

The thousand-hand centipede emerged from the cocoon, bathed in the dazzling electric light of the tribulation lightning, revealing its terrifying body.

Its massive form seemed as if it could break the sky itself.

The length of the thousand-hand centipede increased from three hundred meters to over five hundred meters, its form more massive and terrifying.

Its insect shell appeared deep black, as hard as if cast from iron, each scale the size of a millstone, its eyes like blazing fires, reflecting the surrounding trees, making them seem as if they too were aflame.

Roar!

The thousand-hand centipede let out a roar.

The sound shook the earth, like rolling thunder, striking fear into people’s hearts.

The thousand-hand centipede slowly rose, its massive body causing the ground to tremble, and the small animals in the forest fled in panic, while birds screeched and rushed toward the sky.

With its enormous and terrifying figure, every movement it made carried immense power, like a moving mountain. Wherever it stepped, the earth trembled, all things bowed down, and even each breath could transform into a gust of wind, almost inciting a storm, stirring up thousands of piles of snow, shaking clouds across ten thousand miles.

All around, in the valleys upon the thousand-hand centipede’s awakening, just casually stretching its body, massive cracks appeared on the ground, the valleys collapsed, leaving only ruptured cliffs and a cracked earth everywhere.

Swoosh!

Behind the thousand-hand centipede, six pairs of gigantic purple wings slowly unfolded, the wings covered in layers of scales, glistening with a metallic sheen.

A level ten gale rose from the ground, the thousand-hand centipede soared into the sky, flapping its wings, all the trees around sang in unison, soaring straight into the tribulation cloud of the sky dome.

The tribulation cloud then roiled, like waves in the sky, rolling and tumbling, manipulated effortlessly by the thousand-hand centipede.

Those lightning tribulations fell on the thousand-hand centipede’s body but couldn’t break its insect shell. It seemed like the thousand-hand centipede found it an amusing game, its body continuously absorbing the lightning tribulation, playing with zest.

The lightning tribulation lasted for several minutes, and whether it was due to time running out or the thousand-hand centipede playing it to collapse, it eventually dissipated slowly into the horizon.

With the lightning tribulation’s disappearance, this meant that the thousand-hand centipede had successfully passed it and advanced to a top grade eight refinement gu worm.

“Xiao Qian, come over here and let me have a look.”

Su Jie called out, upon hearing the master’s call, the thousand-hand centipede immediately maneuvered its body, swooping down toward Su Jie.

The wind pressure uprooted nearby trees, and as it approached Su Jie, the thousand-hand centipede began to slow down again, landing in front of Su Jie, emitting joyful sounds.

Buzz! Buzz buzz!

The thousand-hand centipede nudged Su Jie with its head, its calls particularly joyful, nudging while squinting its eyes, resembling a playful cat.

Of course, at this moment, the thousand-hand centipede’s ferocious and terrifying appearance and gigantic size were like a super monster straight out of a movie, nobody would equate it with a cat.

Su Jie patted the head of the thousand-hand centipede, just the original form of the thousand-hand centipede, over five hundred meters in length, much larger than the largest ship on Blue Star. Standing before it, Su Jie seemed like a tiny ant.

“This is truly a dramatic change.”

Su Jie stroked and observed the thousand-hand centipede, apart from its size, the most significant change in the thousand-hand centipede came from its head.

Here, a circle of fierce purple bristles had grown, occasionally flickering with purple lightning, from a distance resembling a thorny crown, adding a few touches of regal majesty to the thousand-hand centipede’s ferociously terrifying and brutal exterior.

Buzz!

The thousand-hand centipede eagerly showcased its new abilities after advancing to a top grade eight refinement gu worm to Su Jie.

Only to see the thorny crown atop the thousand-hand centipede’s head illuminate with a dazzling brilliance, its momentum surged, like towering mountains and vast oceans, unfathomable.

On the surface of the thousand-hand centipede’s body, pieces of grinding-sized scale armor revealed intricate and inscrutable, indecipherable, incomprehensible, and unpredictable mystical patterns. To the human eye, it was as if glimpsing incomplete and fragmentary fundamental truths of the Tao, causing a headache and the feeling of one’s head splitting apart.

“This is!”

Su Jie sensed a familiar aura, it was the aura of the Tao River, Su Jie could not mistake it.

Su Jie raised his head, the Tao River in the void was not opened, and then Su Jie thought of something, his pupils contracted.

Boom!

The thousand-hand centipede opened its mouth and spat, its breath having no specific form, yet seemed infinitely variable, containing the aura of the Tao River. Silently, a long and narrow ravine appeared on the ground, terrifying and inexplicable.

The thousand-hand centipede’s calls became even more joyful, those intricate patterns on its body became increasingly bright, and its body began not to limit itself to mere flesh, some parts of its body showing forms of energy, becoming ethereal, sometimes transforming its flesh into magma, sometimes into scalding steam, sometimes into hard steel, and sometimes into flowing streams of water.

The thousand-hand centipede casually manipulated the changes upon its body, the scorching magma caused a flowing lava river to appear on the ground, while the boiling steam made the surrounding area within a thousand meters transform into a high-temperature steam bath.

Seeing this scene, Su Jie finally confirmed his speculation, exclaiming: “Whoa, Xiao Qian, you guy, are you evolving towards those chaotic creatures in the Tao River?”
