After pondering for a moment, Jian Shang was the first to take out the Heaven Grade tome, the Heavenly Gu Codex, and learn it...
A flood-like torrent of information exploded through his mind. The number of powerful cultivation techniques controlled by the Cosmic Star Tribulation increased by one, reaching ten.
Several hours later, Jian Shang had roughly digested it and gained a general understanding of Gu insects—their common knowledge, secret lore, profound truths, and so on.
The situation truly was just as Jian Shang had feared most. The Gu-Insect Civilization of the Laos region began with nurturing Gu and raising Gu, much like keeping a pet; yet in the middle and later stages, it involved refining Gu and merging with Gu, as mysterious as the legendary external incarnation. Its ultimate realm was... Human-Gu Unity!
Of course, the Gu insects used by the overwhelming majority of Gu practitioners were ordinary ones. Gu Mothers were as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.
The Rainbow Demon Butterfly Gu Mother had been passed down since ancient times. It had been accidentally acquired by the Chenla Witch King, establishing his might as a Witch King. It might have been the Laos region's only Gu Mother, at least on the surface!
"Merge? Or not merge?!"
Jian Shang held the Rainbow Demon Butterfly Gu Mother in his left hand and the "Heavenly Gu Body" crystal in his right, hesitating.
Why think so much?! I already merged with the Beast-Fusion Civilization, so why fear adding a Gu-Insect Civilization?! With the Cosmic Star Tribulation controlling it, could I really be afraid that this unorthodox Gu-Insect Civilization might cause some accident?
After carefully considering it, Jian Shang hardened his heart. In the end, he could not bear to give up the Heaven Grade tome, the supreme Gu Mother treasure,
