Reverse War Surpass Immortal

Chapter 899 - 819: Rule Mother Worm (Part 2)

Along the way, he encountered quite a few Ice Corpses, and the other corpse worms sent him a special form of communication, which he responded to one by one without letting the other corpse worms notice any flaw. The other corpse worms then directed him towards the location of the Corpse Worm Mother.He advanced for more than thirty kilometers, finally arriving at a gigantic copper gate.

He widened his eyes, seeing the inscribed plaque on the copper gate which read "Zongtian Immortal Sect".

"What is going on here?"

He couldn't understand why the Corpse Worm Mother would hang such a plaque at its own nest. He extended his Divine Sense, confirming that there were no Ice Corpses nearby before he sneaked inside.

Once inside, he saw a huge room ahead, inside of which was an enormous creature resembling a caterpillar-like living form.

The creature's body was extremely massive, reaching hundreds of meters in length.

"This must be the Corpse Worm Mother!"

He sensed the Rule Power surrounding the area and found it very similar to the Demon Domain.

His eyes flickered with mystery; he truly couldn't understand why there would be such a bizarre Demon at Yuanzhen Continent.

"Could this Corpse Worm Mother create a Rule Power similar to that of the Demon Domain?"

After thinking for a while, he came up with a possibility.

Immediately, he called Ling'er from the Space Bracelet, asking it to search nearby to see if any Treasure could be sensed.

The Corpse Worm Mother in front was too large, making it difficult for Duan Gujin to bypass it and examine the surrounding area for treasure.

Thus, he asked Ling'er to sense the area.

After a while, Ling'er informed him that there was no Treasure sensed nearby.

"It seems the changes in Rule Power in this place, akin to the Demon Domain, are caused by this Corpse Worm Mother. Just what kind of Mother Worm is this?"

His eyes flickered, and he thought of another possibility.

"Could this Mother Worm be the Rule Mother Worm?"

He carefully recalled the records from some classics and believed the massive Mother Worm he saw now was the Rule Mother Worm.

The Rule Mother Worm is a kind of ancient worm that can alter the spatial rules of a place, leaving these changes since ancient times.

The classics documented that such Mother Worms are not skilled in combat; they can change Rule Power in a definite space to make it suitable for exerting their strength.

"It's said that the Rule Mother Worm contains a Beast Bone, which, if acquired, permits you to learn the Rule Combat Technique!"

Suddenly, Duan Gujin's eyes brightened sharply; he contemplated for a moment and felt his odds of victory in combat against this Rule Mother Worm were not high.

"If I were to battle it here, whether I could defeat it is unknown. I shall see if I can use another method to make it submit?"

He glanced around, discovering many frozen corpses of sea demons lying ahead.

Seeing those sea demon corpses, he promptly devised a plan—to use sedatives on the Mother Worm.

Luckily, he had previously prepared a large quantity of sedatives to deal with those sea demons.

He mixed in among the sea demon ice blocks, injecting the sedatives into one of the sea demon corpses.

Knowing the Mother Worm's substantial size, he understood that to incapacitate it, a sufficient amount of sedatives was required. Thus, he injected all the sedatives into a single sea demon corpse.

Afterwards, he hid in the shadows, observing the movements of the Rule Mother Worm.

Half a day later, he saw the Rule Mother Worm devouring all the sea demon ice blocks at once, marveling at its enormous appetite.

"Hopefully, those sedatives will take effect!"

Duan Gujin exhaled a misty breath, his eyes fixed resolutely on the Rule Mother Worm ahead.

Time slipped by, and after an hour, he noticed the Rule Mother Worm sleeping soundly.

His Divine Sense locked onto the Rule Mother Worm ahead, certain that it had been sedated, as its breathing was noticeably different from before.

"It's really wonderful!"

Relieved, Duan Gujin dashed up, his Divine Sense inspecting the Rule Mother Worm's interior.

A while later, his Divine Sense detected a glowing Beast Bone on the head of the Rule Mother Worm, which he knew was its essence.

Once he learned the 'Divine Rune' on the Beast Bone, he could master the technique to alter the surrounding Rule Power.

Duan Gujin took a deep breath, swiftly sealing the Beast Bone, then decisively struck to kill the Rule Mother Worm.

After its death, he promptly extracted the Beast Bone.

His Divine Sense delved into the Beast Bone, his expression changing drastically after a while.

"This Beast Bone is indeed marvelous!"

The Beast Bone contained cultivation methods left by the ancestors of the Rule Mother Worm.

His Divine Sense examined the methods, finding them exceedingly intricate.

"Learning these cultivation methods of the Rule Mother Worm is not easy!"

The methods required eighteen hands to perform simultaneously, and evidently, as a member of the Human Clan, he only had two hands.

Nevertheless, for Duan Gujin, manifesting eighteen hands was not entirely impossible.

However, this transformation skill heavily consumed Primordial Power and Spiritual Power, making it unsustainable for long.

"It's such a headache!"

While he could potentially transform into eighteen hands, achieving this was within reach.

However, it would require consuming one-third of his Primordial Power and Spiritual Power, transforming him into an eighteen-armed monster.

Besides, he'd still need to use up the remaining two-thirds of his Primordial Power and Spiritual Power to cultivate the Space Rules Secret Technique on the Beast Bone.

"With my current capabilities, mastering the Space Rules Secret Technique of the Rule Mother Worm is truly a challenging task!"

Duan Gujin exhaled a misty breath, checking the Rule Mother Worm's corpse to ensure everything was intact before putting the body into the Space Bracelet.

Upon leaving the secret chamber, he discovered that all the other corpse worms outside had perished.

"Once the Rule Mother Worm dies, all the other corpse worms will follow suit in death!"

He searched the entire Undersea Giant Cave but found no other treasures.

To prevent any mishaps in the Undersea Giant Cave, he immediately destroyed some Crystal Stones surrounding the secret chamber.

These Crystal Stones composed the Space Crystal Wall of the Undersea Giant Cave, and their destruction would lead to the collapse of the Space Crystal Wall.

Indeed, the next moment, he sensed seawater rushing into the Undersea Giant Cave, submerging the entire cave.

Quickly, he swam out of the Undersea Giant Cave, then headed towards the sea demons.
