Chapter 105: Death and Life

After my essence blood dripped onto the bug’s forehead, it was smoothly absorbed by the bug. When the bug absorbed my essence blood, everyone present saw that the bug was obviously much more energetic, and it was originally ovulating, and the purple egg had almost slipped out of a large part at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In this way, the female worm still had some energy left.

Gao Ning’s eyes flashed with a crazy light, and her face was filled with a strange sense of satisfaction. She held onto my arm tightly, looking at me as if she were looking at some kind of rare treasure.

The feeling after losing blood and essence is not sudden weakness, but slow weakness. After a short while, I felt like I wanted to lie down and take a good nap, because it was so hard for me to even stand up.

Gao Ning just stared at the female worm, Ling Ruxue looked at Gao Ning coldly, took his hand away from me, and then helped me personally. Hui Gen’er, who had not recovered, was also much better than me, and he also came over to help me.

I was so weak that my 1.8 meter tall body and 140 kg weight almost completely fell on Ling Ruxue. Out of male pride, I really wanted to stand up, but the dizziness made it impossible.

“It’s heavy, isn’t it?” I asked with a weak heart, looking at Ling Ruxue, who was calm and only slightly out of breath.

“Fortunately, we will definitely get out alive.” Ling Ruxue’s eyes flashed with an unwavering light, and I didn’t know where she got that confidence.

After answering my question, Ling Ruxue immediately asked Gao Ning, “You’ve got Chen Chengyi’s essence and blood, and your goal has been achieved. Can we go now?”

Gao Ning shook his head repeatedly and said, “No, no, no, young lady, you are too impatient. My snake spirit can still delay things for a while. I will not let Chen Chengyi leave no matter what before the female worm has laid its eggs.”

Ling Ruxue’s eyes grew cold, staring at Gao Ning and said coldly, “I won’t let you take away even a drop of Chen Chengyi’s blood.”

Gao Ning’s face suddenly became hideous, and he said in a low voice, “That’s not up to you. If the female worm fails to hatch, we will all die together!”

Ling Ruxue wanted to say something else, but I held out my hand to stop her. I was a little breathless and said weakly, “Let him take it. A little blood can be replenished if he needs it. You, be obedient.”

Ling Ruxue looked at me, her eyes revealing a hint of distress, and in the end she bit her lower lip and said nothing.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the purple egg had already discharged most of its contents. The female worm could not hold on, and it became weak again, even its breath of life was very weak.

Gao Ning took out the bone knife without saying a word. I smiled indifferently and let him take it.

This time, Gao Ning took a drop of blood from my forehead and then another from my chest.

I felt Ling Ruxue’s body shaking violently. I endured the feeling of weakness to the point of wanting to vomit, and tremblingly held Ling Ruxue’s cold hand, whispering very hard in her ear, “To live, endure.”

After my two drops of essence blood were dripped on the mother worm’s forehead, the mother worm let out a series of excited neighs, and then the purple egg was finally successfully discharged. It was just that between the egg and the mother worm, there was a magical tube, similar to the tube that connected it to the old monster that had been turned into pieces.

My vision was already blurring, and I only felt a wave of blackness in front of my eyes. I am not a medical student, and I don’t know how much essence blood a person should have in his life, but I know that I haven’t fainted after taking out so much essence blood at once. I have to thank my master for carefully nourishing me since I was a child.

When I was born, I had a strong spiritual sense and was too yin, which attracted a hundred ghosts to haunt me and caused me to lose the most yang and most spiritual essence. I felt that my body became very cold, which was the result of yin entering the body and yang not controlling yin.

Moreover, I felt that I was being entangled by a wave of residual negative energy. Would this room be free of negative energy?

The various pressures and weakness made me unable to stand any longer. I suddenly fell to my knees on one leg, causing Ling Ruxue and Huigen to stumble as well.

“What’s wrong with you?” Ling Ruxue asked worriedly.

I didn’t want her to worry, so I jokingly said, “Don’t you think that the tube that the worm is connected to the eggs is like a human umbilical cord?” But as soon as I said this, my eyes went dark, and I felt an overwhelming dizziness that made me unable to even kneel.

Ling Ruoxue hugged me from behind, supporting me, then grabbed my shirt tightly and whispered to me, “Chen Chengyi, you won’t die. You have to hold on. We’ll get out of here alive.”

I was too weak to speak, and I just nodded weakly. I happened to catch a glimpse of Huigen looking at Gao Ning with a strange, calm gaze. I wanted to ask, but I didn’t have the strength to speak. But the Buddha said that everything has a cause and effect, and he has a retribution. If there is no retribution, then I will be his retribution in the future.

This kid, I smiled weakly. He kept saying that the Buddha forbade anger, but I knew that he was really angry this time.

“Retribution, hehe, retribution is only for the incompetent. Who else can be a retribution for the gods? Hehehe…” Gao Ning obviously heard Huigen’s words. He kept grinning and laughing, not paying any attention to Huigen’s direct targeting of him. However, I could feel that this person had already become so extreme that it could not be reversed.

The insect chamber was quiet, except for a strange sound that resembled sucking. It was the strange sound coming from the tube connecting the egg and the female insect.

My vision was already not very clear, almost half-closed, but I could feel with my spiritual senses that the life of the female worm, not just life, but everything about the female worm was passing away at an extremely fast rate, and the purple egg had even begun to emit a faint glow.

At this time, the egg was the only thing that gave off a strange sense of vitality.

How familiar! Purple, fluorescent, these demons have noble colors. They are very noble, aren’t they? They play with people’s lives at will and change them.

Compared to the quiet of the insect room, the sounds outside were very noisy. When the female insect let out a excited neigh, it became very noisy outside. Of course, they were not just enjoying the noise, they were still moving.

My physical weakness, on the contrary, somehow released my spiritual senses. Although at this point, my spiritual senses were also weak due to the weakness of my soul power, they were just less restricted by my body, and they were more sensitive.

The reason I was certain they were moving was because I sensed that the snake spirit was getting weaker and weaker, and it wouldn’t last much longer.

At that moment, I heard a dull “boom” and then Gao Ning’s laughter. I turned my head with difficulty and saw that the female worm was already lying lifeless on the stone platform, without any momentum or ferocious expression. At this point, even a fool could see that the female worm was nothing more than a strange shell.

When it died, the strange purple color on its body began to fade rapidly, and the purple color on the eggs became brighter and brighter. The mother worm turned into a strange grayish white color, and the corpse lying on the stone platform gave people the feeling of decay. It was afraid that it would crumble if it was touched lightly.

The purple faded, and the gray-white color spread rapidly, eventually spreading to the pipe. The mother insect’s body was finally completely covered in gray-white, and with a few slight cracking sounds, the pipe actually shattered into pieces.

The egg emitted an unprecedented glow and remained quietly on the stone platform, full of a strange vitality.

The contrast between death and life was so glaring that it hurt to look at it. Gao Ning laughed wildly, walked over, carefully picked up the egg, and then gently placed it in his backpack. Finally, he turned to me and said, “You see, death is so terrible. Because of death, I feel that my life is so meaningless. I just try to make it meaningful. But you wouldn’t understand if I told you. I’m leaving, and you can leave too. Hahaha…”

After saying that, Gao Ning climbed into the hole without looking back. In his opinion, this was also a promise kept. After all, he had led us to the escape hole.

But how do we leave? I am too weak to even move, so how can we leave?

“You go, I have the essence of blood.” I said this with almost all my strength. I believe that Ling Ruxue must have understood what I meant, which was to let them go first, because I had the essence of blood, and this village would not kill me easily.

However, Ling Ruxue only looked at me calmly, and said softly but firmly, “No.”
