Chapter 167: Traces of the Hall of Souls

In the blink of an eye, another week had passed.

Now, there were only three days left until the inner sect competition at Yunlan Sect.

In the valley behind the back mountain.

In a corner of a mountain cave, Gu He created a cave out of thin air.

The walls of the cave were covered with moonlight stones, brightening the originally dim cave.

In the deepest part of this cave, there was a secret chamber about a dozen yards in size.

At this moment, Gu He stood in front of the secret chamber, his gaze fixed on the dozen or so blood-red insects clinging to the cave walls.

These blood-red creatures had wings on their backs, covered in tough, blood-red scales. Upon closer inspection, one could see sharp mouthparts growing in their mouths.

Outside the secret chamber, Gu He carefully observed these blood-red creatures, feeling the bloody aura emanating from them, and a faint smile appeared on Gu He's lips.

These eighteen blood-red creatures were the Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas.

Since obtaining the Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicada eggs, Gu He had come to this mountain valley and created this cave, placing the eggs in the secret chamber.

After years of nourishment by Dou Qi, the Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas finally hatched today.

This made Gu He somewhat pleased, and he immediately came to the cave to observe.

These Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas were not very large, only slightly larger than ordinary insects.

However, the aura emanating from these Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas made Gu He feel satisfied.

All eighteen Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas hatched from the eggs, each possessing strength equivalent to a four-star demon beast, comparable to a human Dou Ling's cultivation.

However, the Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas, being insects, naturally had low intelligence. Even though Gu He had signed a master-servant contract with them, given their intelligence, they could only complete simple commands.

Although Gu He was somewhat disappointed, he could reluctantly accept it.

As long as these creatures obediently followed commands, their intelligence should improve as their strength increased in the future.

During this time, Gu He also collected some ancient books about poisonous insects. At this moment, he was no longer as ignorant as before.

Through reading these ancient books, Gu He learned that in ancient times, someone specifically created a Poisonous Insect List for these powerful poisonous insects. It recorded hundreds of powerful poisonous insects.

Among them, the Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicada happened to rank ninth on the Poisonous Insect List.

Although the Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicada ranked high on the list, according to the descriptions in those ancient books, their individual abilities were limited, relying entirely on large numbers for victory.

If there were only a dozen or even dozens, they would not be very useful even after reaching adulthood.

Only when their numbers reached thousands or even tens of thousands could they truly live up to their ranking on the list of extraordinary insects.

Thinking of the scene where countless Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas would fill the sky, attacking without end, Gu He couldn't help but shudder.

It was a change in their aura!

After devouring the beast corpse, the aura of these Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas became even more bloodthirsty.

Strands of blood-red energy entwined around them, giving off a chilling sensation at a glance.

"It seems that I'll have to bring a beast corpse every day in the future."

Seeing this scene, Gu He felt somewhat helpless.

Once these Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas multiplied, it would probably take extremely powerful beast corpses to sustain them.

After giving the command for the Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas to stay in the secret chamber and not go out, Gu He slowly walked out of the cave.

As soon as he stepped out, an extremely rich dou qi rushed towards him.

Looking around, most of the void in the valley had been filled with particle-like mist, making the vision somewhat blurry.

Releasing his soul power, Gu He could completely see the situation in the valley.

With a thought, Gu He's figure appeared next to the medicine garden.

During this time, Gu He had taken another trip to the Miteer Auction House and planted the three Tier 6 spiritual herbs they had collected.

Now, in the medicine garden, disregarding the Tier 4 and Tier 5 spiritual herbs, the number of Tier 6 spiritual herbs had reached fifteen.

Seeing that the spiritual herbs in the garden were growing well, Gu He nodded in satisfaction. Then, following the opening created by Cai Er, he left the valley.

The next moment, Gu He's figure returned to his own yard.

Just as he was about to walk towards the pavilion, Gu He suddenly changed his expression, looking towards the direction of the back mountain of Yunlan Sect.

"Such a powerful aura..."

Gu He released his soul power, immediately sensing a strong unfamiliar aura.

"This is... the Hall of Souls!"
