Chapter 238 - Taming the Iceworm

After speaking the last few words to You Zhiming, Ling Xiao took a step forward, and stepped onto You Zhiming's throat. Following a crisp "crack" sound, the situation came to an end and he was sent off to the west.

Immediately afterwards, Ling Xiao saw the remaining frost armor on his body turn into powder and fall onto the ground, melting into streams of water that flowed into the soil.

Ling Xiao extended his hand and placed it on the pulse point of You Huang's wrist, channeling his own Inner Qi. Very quickly, he found the Iceworm in You Tan's body.

Even if Ling Xiao did not do anything, the Iceworm would try to find a way to get out of the water and climb out of the water. However, since the Iceworm was dead, there was no life energy in them and they naturally could not provide enough nutrients for the Iceworm to live in.

The location of the Iceworm was located in the calm Dantian. It should be the most suitable place for the Iceworm to live.

Ling Xiao took out a dagger, carefully cut open his calm stomach, and accurately found the Iceworm's exact location.

Although he had just died, because he had activated the Frost Armor, his current corpse was extremely cold, and even a little stiff. Thus, when Ling Xiao slashed open the corpse, it was like he was slashing an ice cube.

"Creak." Ling Xiao cut open the last piece of skin, and after that, dark red blood flowed out extremely slowly. There were even some blood crystals that were frozen by the cold energy, and this was after a long period of calm death, or else the blood would have been frozen into ice cubes the moment it flowed out.

Ling Xiao saw that as soon as the tiny blood crystals were formed, they were immediately moved by something, like earthworms loosening their soil, and after that, a bug slowly crawled out.

This Iceworm was pure white, and a little blue, but because it was surrounded by fresh blood, it was completely red.

Seeing that, Ling Xiao said indifferently: Why don't you clean it yourself? The blood of the dead should not be what you like. "

When the Iceworm crawled out, it finally revealed its real body. It was half the size of a palm, which was terrifying. This showed that the Iceworm had spent a lot of blood essence to raise it.

Such a rare Iceworm, it naturally had some awareness. Even though it could not speak, it could still understand.

After hearing Ling Xiao's words, the Iceworm's body was covered in a thin layer of frost. It began to freeze the blood on its body, and then, with a twist of its body, the frozen blood crystals exploded with a 'pa' sound and fell to the side.

At this time, the Iceworm finally revealed its original appearance.

At first glance, Ling Xiao felt that he was a little fat and beautiful. If it was a fish, Ling Xiao would definitely not be courteous, he would grill it and make it into a roasted fish to eat.

"Your master is already dead. If you don't have a suitable living environment, you will soon die of exhaustion. It's not even winter yet, you won't be able to live through that." Ling Xiao observed for a while and continued.

The Iceworm twisted its body twice, causing a layer of cold light to burst out from its entire body, and suddenly, several ice arrows were shot towards Ling Xiao.

Ling Xiao waved the dagger in his hand, easily blocking the attack.

"Hehe, you have some backbone. You actually want to fight against me. You are just a worm without hands or feet, and you want to fight against me? Looks like I'll have to use you as a barbeque." Ling Xiao looked at the Iceworm with a slightly amused expression.

As if it understood Ling Xiao's words, the Iceworm struggled to twist and turn a few more times, but the frost on its body had already disappeared, and it seemed to be afraid of surrendering.

"Everything will be fine soon." Ling Xiao coldly snorted.

However, Ling Xiao was troubled, it was not practical to let the Iceworm burrow into his dantian to support it, with his own dense Qi, god knows how big he would raise the Iceworm to, at that time, it would create a burden on his body.

But if they did not give this Iceworm a suitable living environment, after a long time, the Iceworm would slowly dry up and die due to incompatibility with the surrounding environment. If it was winter, the Iceworm could still sink to the bottom of the lake and make use of the surrounding cold environment to temporarily extend its life.

Speaking of cold and sinister things, Ling Xiao suddenly thought of something.

Ling Xiao took out the Divine Wood King Cauldron s from his body. After observing them for a while, the corner of his mouth curled up.

Both the Yin energy and Yin energy were similar in nature. The only difference was that one was cold and the other was poison, but in general, all of them were yin attribute.

In this way, it would seem that the combination of the two would not result in rejection, but rather, it would likely lead to an even stronger existence.

Releasing his Qi, Ling Xiao absorbed a bit of the sinister Qi from the Divine Wood King Cauldron, then wrapped his fingers around it and extended them out in front of the Iceworm.

As if he had smelled the same scent as himself, the Iceworm that was originally afraid of him suddenly became brave and crawled up to his fingers, touching them with its tentacles.

Following that, the Iceworm happily twisted its body, and once again approached Ling Xiao's finger.

The following scene made Ling Xiao feel extremely gratified, because this was the same result as what he had expected.

The Iceworm started to absorb the sinister Qi, and very quickly, it was swallowed, following that it continued to stick to Ling Xiao's finger, as though it was not satisfied.

Seeing that, Ling Xiao laughed: "You still want more? "Of course there's no problem, but it just depends on whether you're willing to stop me."

When the Iceworm heard him, it twisted its body and took the initiative to crawl to Ling Xiao's feet. It slightly bent its body, and looked like it was bowing down towards Ling Xiao, just like a human, it had to admit that this Iceworm was definitely the most intelligent one in the world.

Seeing that, Ling Xiao could not help but laugh out loud: "Good, seeing that you are so sincere, then I will give you this chance, be good and listen, I will definitely not mistreat you."

Then, Ling Xiao placed the Divine Wood King Cauldron in front of the Iceworm and said: "This will be your home from now on. It will be filled with a dense, poisonous energy, you can eat whatever you want, but if there's something you need, don't be lazy."

When the Iceworm smelled an even purer sinister aura, it immediately twisted its body a few times in excitement, then swiftly rushed into the Divine Wood King Cauldron at an extremely fast speed. If not for Ling Xiao's constant surveillance, it would have thought that it was flying in.

"Tsk tsk, you really have a brain, to think that you actually know how to hide your abilities, I will let you go for now. When you are free, I will reveal all of your abilities to me." Seeing that, Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows and said.

When the Iceworm within the Divine Wood King Cauldron heard this, it slightly bent its body once again, expressing its determination to be obedient.

Seeing that, Ling Xiao nodded his head in satisfaction, then retracted the Divine Wood King Cauldron.
