Alan said helplessly: "Hey, time is running out. I have very few adult beetles Gu left. Now I'm just like bare-handed. I have almost no offensive Gu. I only have three days to prepare. It's too late."
They reproduced according to the usual procedures, so I had to use my own flesh and blood to forcefully speed up their growth cycle. Anyway, this is not the first time. In the evil witch cult, in order to make the Gu creatures grow stronger or be more connected to the mind
, it is normal to feed it with the host’s own essence and blood.”
"Will they grow faster if they eat your flesh and blood?" I said with some disbelief, "Does eating other people's flesh have the same effect? After all, it's just a thin slice in terms of quantity."
Alan replied: "Eating the flesh and blood of other creatures or humans is more or less useful. It depends on the type of poison and the preciousness of the food itself. The reason why the flesh and blood of the poison master himself is the most useful is
Probably because it contains my blood essence and the power of witchcraft. Compared with ordinary meat, it is equivalent to a tonic that directly strengthens the foundation."
Then he raised his arm and looked at it, confirming that the wound was indeed completely healed and no more blood was flowing out, and then said: "Just like your Taoist sect needs to use Taoist energy, in addition to relying on the toxicity of the poison itself, we raise the poison
In addition to energy and energy, there is also the power of witchcraft and Gu, which can strengthen Gu. It is also a kind of energy originating from heaven, earth and life, but it is not easy to be released directly through spells like you Taoist priests, and most of them need to rely on Gu.
Or a medium like lowering the head.”
"The power of witchcraft? No wonder, I was thinking that it is impossible for only Buddhism and Taoism to master the special cultivation and application methods of their own energy. However, it seems that you are more focused on expressing power indirectly through manipulating media." I couldn't help but think.
He suddenly realized, "Then how do you improve this energy? Are there any steps similar to sitting in meditation, letting go of the old and absorbing the new?"
"There are also things like the meditation practice you mentioned, or the ascetic practices of absorbing the energy of nature. However, from the perspective of the evil witch sect itself, those senior cadres like to offer sacrifices to the Silkworm God through various rituals in exchange for power, and we
These low-level grassroots personnel do not have such conditions to prepare for the ceremony, so they can only raise and refine the poison with peace of mind. Through the growth of the poison slowly, it serves as a way to communicate with natural energy, and in turn draws strength from it to increase their cultivation.
But there is one last thing..."
When Alang said this, he frowned, showed an expression of deep disgust, and said with some regret: "That is to directly feed living people to Gu creatures, and it is not a ritual of sacrifice to the gods, but a simple
Using the human body as a breeding ground for the growth of voodoo creatures is a method developed by a king in the ancient Dian Kingdom in southern Xinjiang called Xianwang. It is said that it can take advantage of the pain and pain of being devoured by voodoos before death.
Resentment is used to enhance the witchcraft power and viciousness of the voodoo itself, and it is extremely efficient."
He pointed to the scars on his arms and chest, and said: "Actually, this is a variation of this method, just the mildest one. If I plant all these longhorn beetles on a person,
If you cultivate it in your body as a seedbed, and continue to torture it to make it extremely painful, the beetle voodoo that hatches will be several times more powerful than what you have seen before, and its speed, strength, and toxic effects will all increase accordingly.
.”
Although I had thought about feeding living people to Gu before, after getting the confirmation from Alang's mouth, I just felt more and more terrible, because this shows that there is almost no actual price or threshold, as long as
If you can get enough living people, you can create Gu creatures that are far superior to your original level. This is almost an explosive leap without any cost.
It is no wonder that the evil witch sect can still have a place in southern Xinjiang in a modern society with advanced science and technology, and can even penetrate into the upper echelons of the secular world. In contrast, the cultivation of Buddhism and Taoism not only focuses on talent, but many people may have to work hard.
Even after meditating, practicing Qi, drawing talismans and chanting sutras for a lifetime, it is still not as good as feeding two more Gu worms.
But after all, in today's era, killing people is not as casual as in ancient times, so this method is still somewhat risky for Alang's class.
As we were talking, the sound of bubbles on the river became louder and louder, as if something was about to jump out. Alang seemed very excited when he heard the sound, and turned back and ran towards the river, and I also looked along.
I saw white beetles flying out of the lake one after another. The big horns on each head revealed a bright white and sharp light, and the wings increased from two pairs to four pairs.
But their bodies have become smaller, and their profiles have become more agile and strong. Alang's expression looked very happy. He picked one up and looked left and right, then turned back and explained to me: "My mother-in-law gave it to me."
The elixir has taken effect. I didn’t expect that the elixir could really promote the evolution of the voodoo so quickly. Now they have turned into Xuanhan longhorned voodoo. Logically speaking, this is a variant that will appear after at least ten generations of cultivation.
.”
Although I don't understand the art of voodoo, I can tell that it must be the elixir given by my mother-in-law that turned Alang's originally weak beetle vood into a stronger variety. No wonder he did not hesitate to cut his own flesh and blood today.
, we have to work overnight to produce these Gu creatures, which is undoubtedly good news before we travel.
In the next two days, Fatty and I worked hard to make a lot of charms, while Alang was tinkering with his beetles. When he had free time, he would also practice using the cloud-weaver butterflies given to him by his mother-in-law.
It seems that his power of witchcraft is limited, and the blue butterfly was not raised by him after all. It seems that it is very troublesome and obstructive to control. He can barely control two or three at the same time. This is the limit.
Grandma Alang's physical condition has gradually stabilized under the care of the ghost mother-in-law. However, the toxicity has not been completely eliminated. Coupled with the old age and frailty, she still has not been able to wake up. The mother-in-law said that she will see her recovery.
In this case, it will probably take at least a week or so to fully wake up and recover, so there is no point in rushing.
Although Alang was very worried, even his mother-in-law said so, so he had to put the matter behind him for the time being.
Finally, the agreed three days later arrived, and it was almost noon. Before Fatty, Alang, and I left, the ghost lady stopped us, gave Alang a bag of powdery stuff, and said: "You are so miasmatic.
It has been slightly improved, but I don’t know much about the Southern Xinjiang Miasma Technique, so its effectiveness is limited. It can be used in unexpected ways when defending yourself or against the enemy, so you only need to follow the usual miasma spreading techniques."
