Information on this insect flashed through Lin Xuan's mind, and his expression changed drastically as well.
It could rival a Spirit Division-stage cultivator?
If the legends were true, then he was in real trouble.
Though he had slain Old Devil Gu, Lin Xuan did not think his own strength could truly stand on equal footing with an old monster at the Spirit Division stage. That had been the result of all sorts of chance coincidences; the same situation could never be replicated.
Lin Xuan even wanted to turn and flee.
Because a Purple Patterned Corpse Insect this large really did look like a mature form, almost no different from the legends.
Fortunately, at that very moment, a flash of insight passed through his mind, and Lin Xuan calmed down again.
No!
Although raising this insect was dangerous, he had never heard that one needed to self-destruct when using it.
If that were so, then no matter how boundless this insect's power was, no one would raise it. So what exactly was Thin Demon's purpose in doing this?
Could it be that this insect was actually still far from maturity, and that this demon, for the sake of revenge, had poured all the Dharma power in his body along with his natal vital energy into the insect's body?
If he did that, he could indeed force it to mature in an extremely short time.
Mm, that had to be it.
Because this explanation was the most reasonable. Only by using self-destruction could he inject as much Dharma power and natal vital energy as possible.
Lin Xuan was also widely experienced, and in an instant, he thought of this possibility.
If that was truly the case, there was no need to fear it too much.
Because a Demon Insect force-ripened that way
