"Hehe, hard to say. Otherwise, where would all these extra Spirit Veins have come from?" I was basically certain there was a big fellow hiding in here. Great Dragon had only copied the Spirit Veins of the lesser insects, and those Veins were extremely susceptible to the Mother Insect Emperor's influence.
Of course, although they were lesser insects, they still couldn't be underestimated. They did offer some benefits, after all. Most of the immortals who entered here and possessed spirit roots would be actively infused with Spirit Veins by the Mother Insect Emperor, allowing everyone who entered the secret realm to successfully develop spirit roots. The downside was that if they couldn't break free of its control, they would become puppets of the Mother Insect Emperor.
Thus, even though Great Dragon had successfully developed spirit roots by imitating the process, he had seemed almost possessed. Fortunately, I had promptly reconnected the Spirit Veins under his control, allowing him to regain his freedom.
While altering the Spirit Veins, I had also learned how to remove the control and seize control in return. Of course, I needed to try it before I could get any results, so I turned my gaze toward this Sealed-Demon Secret Realm.
"Dong Ren, it's too dangerous. How about changing it to the Withered Water Curtain Beast? This Sacred Water Beetle is terrifying..." Mei Yao couldn't help grabbing my sleeve.
"Little Yao, are you worried about me?" I looked at her with interest, immediately making her face flush. She hurriedly said, "I'm worried that you'll be controlled, and then everyone will be in danger..."
"Nice excuse. Tell me, are you more afraid that you'll fall into danger if I'm controlled, or that you won't be able to see me anymore?" I teased with a smile.
Mei Yao was
