AST 2250 – Capturing the Black Ice Divine Worm, Receiving Divine Spawns

The toxicity of the Black Ice Divine Worm was a given . Regardless of human or some demonic beasts, even poison beasts would retreat at the sight of it . Moreover, the Black Ice Divine Worm’s spawns were also venomous, hence those aware would not have any motives towards its spawns .

“It’s the weakest while it’s spawning . Shall we?” Qing Shui smiled .

“Does that mean those eggs won’t be able to fertilize into tiny Black Ice Divine Worms?” Shen Huang asked pondering .

“Those eggs…” Qing Shui snickered as he looked at Shen Huang . The words made Qing Shui grow excited and he repeated them over and over .

Shen Huang flushed red . What dirty thoughts was this jerk thinking of now? She had changed ever since she met him . She shot him a glare . “Will you stop being so perverted?”

“I’m not . I’m really pure,” Qing Shui retorted with a serious voice .

“You’re a pure hooligan,” Shen Huang snapped back .

“Those eggs…”

“You’re still going on about it . ” Shen Huang continued glaring .

“I was just saying,” Qing Shui added in haste, “that those eggs would fertilize on their own without the Black Ice Divine Worm . Too bad they’re poisonous . Otherwise, I’m sure they’d taste great . ”

“Wouldn’t it be great if they could guard a clan when the spawns mature?” Shen Huang avoided using the ‘egg’ word .

Qing Shui’s eyes sparkled as he nodded . “That’s a good idea . I wonder how long they’d take to mature?”

“It won’t take long for the Black Ice Divine Worm . Typically it would take about twenty years for it to mature . However, its survival rate isn’t too high . Even though they’re toxic, more than 90% of them would starve to death . ” Shen Huang highlighted .

“What? Nine and a half of them would die out of ten?” Qing Shui spoke in disbelief .

“The Black Ice Divine Worm feeds on toxins to grow up . Not many of them can digest them while being young, some might starve and others would be poisoned to death . They aren’t like the matured Black Ice Divine Worm, which is why it’s difficult for them to survive,” Shen Huang explained .

Qing Shui sighed regretfully . These creatures were strong on the food chain, to the point where even those stronger existences would think twice before provoking them . It was a pity that they were few in numbers . Qing Shui wondered how he would grow them even if he took the spawns .

However, his Poison Scriptures came to mind, along with the poisonous lake within the Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal . There were innumerable poisonous creatures there . Qing Shui had placed some restrictions within the Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal and divided them into sections . Those in the poisonous sector wouldn’t be able to get out .

The Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal was big, and its space was comparable to that of a big country . It belonged solely to Qing Shui with medicinal herbs planted, along with a lake where sea creatures resided, and a poisonous lake . There was also a beautiful structure which looked akin to a crystal palace .

At that thought, Qing Shui realized that growing Black Ice Divine Worms wouldn’t be a problem . The Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal had enough space . Qing Shui could concoct a poison pill to feed these poison beasts . If they could really grow a batch of Black Ice Divine Worms, then their power would be terrifying . Once they matured, they would have no issues finding food on their own, and they could also last a long time without . That said, it was still better to feed on poisonous food as it could strengthen their bodies with the toxin .

Qing Shui watched the Black Ice Divine Worm . It had given birth to about eight eggs, each of them as big as a basketball . It had a faint ice glow, making a dent on the ground as they fell .

The eggs of a strong demonic beast were just as powerful . Otherwise, any wild little demonic beast of the bug or pest types would be able to damaged them . That would lower their survival even further . These eggs were so sturdy that even Martial King grade warriors wouldn’t be able to destroy them .

Finally, the ninth egg was out . The Black Ice Divine Worm seemed weak as it checked its surroundings warily . It was then when Qing Shui broke the restrictions around them . These restrictions were just a type of diversionary tactic, like a basic formation .

The Black Ice Divine Worm’s attention shot towards them when the restrictions were broken . The pair of black and radiant eyes were filled with murderous intent . Even Qing Shui flinched at it .

It was no wonder that this desolate beast was one of the Ancient Rare Species .

“Be careful . This demonic beast is vicious,” Shen Huang reminded .

“Was it its toxin that poisoned you previously?” Qing Shui asked curiously .

“Yes . I didn’t expect it to come all the way to the Icy Mountain of Northern Cloud,” replied Shen Huang .

“I’ll gift this creature to you as a pet in a bit . You can bring it out to poison anyone who offends you in the future,” Qing Shui smiled and said .

“There’s no antidote to its poison . You can only rely on yourself to look for one if you’re poisoned . ” Shen Huang shifted her attention to Qing Shui at that thought .

“I’m much stronger than I was previously . Right now, I’ll be able to dissolve its toxin . ” Qing Shui’s cultivation had increased significantly, and the Black Ice Divine Worm’s venom no longer posed a problem .

Shen Huang eyes lit up . “Your medical skills could really strike a name for themselves now . ”

“Hasn’t it always been this way? No one would claim the top if I proclaimed to be the second,” Qing Shui said arrogantly .

“How arrogant,” Shen Huang smiled as she replied .

“Humans . You have a death wish . ” At this time, a cold feminine voice reached their ears .

It was only then when Qing Shui realized that they had forgotten about the Black Ice Divine Worm . He had been too busy joking around with Shen Huang that he forgot about it after they had been discovered . With a glance at Shen Huang’s pinkish cheeks, he knew that she forgot about it too .

“Why don’t we strike a deal? Won’t you follow after my woman in the future?” Qing Shui smiled .

“I’ll definitely kill you . ” Even though Black Divine Worm’s body was weak now, its gaze was still murderous .

“How ferocious . I suppose there’s no point speaking with you . It’ll be difficult for even one of your children to survive if they are kept by your side . If you come with me, I guarantee they’ll all survive,” Qing Shui tried to tempt it .

“I repeat, you’ll definitely die . ”

As the worm fell, its gigantic stature lunged towards Qing Shui .  ‘How quick’ . A group of crystallized droplets rushed towards Qing Shui .

“What a weak attack!”

Qing Shui stood rooted to the ground . With a wave, Earth Thorns emerged . They were gigantic and able to shield Qing Shui completely .

Thump!

Earth Thorns collided with the Black Ice Divine Worm . However, the impact was completely deflected as the venomous toxin splashed towards Qing Shui again .

Nine Continents Mountain!

Bang!

The Black Ice Divine Worm’s body was much weaker than usual, and it was flung aside by the Nine Continents Mountain . After all, the Nine Continents Mountain had up to 140 billion Dao Force .

If the Black Ice Divine Worm hadn’t been spawning, it probably would not be as easy to knock over .

Thereafter, the Nine Continents Mountain smashed itself against the creature . Qing Shui didn’t feel bad for the creature either . Besides, Shen Huang had nearly been poisoned to death by it previously . It finally pleaded for its life after it was critically injured from the smashing .

Qing Shui retrieved a Supreme Sacred Beast Pill and passed it to Shen Huang . He said, “Have it eat this . ”

Qing Shui had done up a seal hastily and exchanged a drip of blood essence . This was the harshest master-beast contract . If Shen Huang died, then so would the Black Ice Divine Worm . However, Shen Huang would be fine even if the creature died .

The Black Ice Divine Worm didn’t have a choice . If it didn’t agree to the contract, it would die immediately . It didn’t want to die; it wanted to see its kids growing up .

Qing Shui had always been giving out the rewards after fighting, and this time was no different . Qing Shui gave Shen Huang the item and had her feed it . He took the role of the mean officer, so it was only natural that Shen Huang would play the nice character .
