Chapter 167: Traces of the Hall of Souls

  In the blink of an eye, another week had passed.

  Now, there were only three days left until the inner sepetition at Yu.

  In the valley behind the back mountain.

  In a er of a mountain cave, Gu He created a cave out of thin air.

  The walls of the cave were covered with moonlight stones, brightening the inally dim cave.

  In the deepest part of this cave, there was a secret chamber about a dozen yards in size.

  At this moment, Gu He stood in front of the secret chamber, his gaze fixed on the dozen or so blood-red is ging to the cave walls.

  These blood-red creatures had wings on their backs, covered in tough, blood-red scales. Upon closer iion, one could see sharp mouthparts growing in their mouths.

  Outside the secret chamber, Gu He carefully observed these blood-red creatures, feeling the bloody aura emanating from them, and a faint smile appeared on Gu He's lips.

  These eighteen blood-red creatures were the Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas.

  Siaining the Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicada eggs, Gu He had e to this mountain valley and created this cave, pg the eggs in the secret chamber.

  After years of nourishment by Dou Qi, the Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas finally hatched today.

  This made Gu He someleased, and he immediately came to the cave to observe.

  These Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas were not very rge, only slightly rger than ordinary is.

  However, the aura emanating from these Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas made Gu He feel satisfied.

  All eighteen Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas hatched from the eggs, each possessing strength equivalent to a four-star demo, parable to a human Dou Ling's cultivation.

  However, the Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas, being is, naturally had low intelligence. Even though Gu He had signed a master-servant tract with them, given their intelligehey could only plete simple ands.

  Although Gu He was somewhat disappointed, he could relutly accept it.

  As long as these creatures obediently followed ands, their intelligence should improve as their strength increased iure.

  During this time, Gu He also collected some a books about poisonous is. At this moment, he was no longer as ignorant as before.

  Through reading these a books, Gu He learhat in aimes, someone specifically created a Poisonous I List for these powerful poisonous is. It recorded hundreds of powerful poisonous is.

  Among them, the Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicada happeo rank ninth on the Poisonous I List.

  Although the Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicada ranked high on the list, acc to the descriptions in those a books, their individual abilities were limited, relyiirely e numbers for victory.

  If there were only a dozen or even dozens, they would not be very useful even after reag adulthood.

  Only when their numbers reached thousands or even tens of thousands could they truly live up to their ranking on the list of extraordinary is.

  Thinking of the se where tless Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas would fill the sky, attag without end, Gu He couldn't help but shudder.

  After all, after reag adulthood, the strength of the Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicada was parable to a Seven-Rank Demo, equivalent to the human Dou Aor realm.

  With thousands of Dou Aor-level creatures ag together, even the most powerful forces would find it extremely difficult to handle.

  Therefore, what Gu He o do now was to quickly mature these Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas and thehem reproduce as soon as possible. Only then could the quantity skyrocket.

  But saying it was easy, doing it was really difficult!

  Firstly, maturing the Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas required terrifying Dou Qi.

  Just this requirement alone would stump most people.

  Fortunately, Gu He possessed the Nine-Colored Sacred Lotus, which could absorb the power of the stars to dense Dou Qi.

  Now, the Dou Qi in this valley was enough to mature these Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas.

  Of course, wanting to mature the Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas with just Dou Qi was far from enough.

  The Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas had a natural bloodthirsty and violent disposition. They o be fed with flesh and blood daily to stimute their nature and accelerate their growth.

  Certainly, relying solely on dou qi was far from enough to mature the Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas.

  The Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas had a naturally bloodthirsty and brutal disposition. They needed daily feeding with flesh and blood to stimute their nature and accelerate their growth.

  Thinking of this, Gu He's mind stirred, aook out a beast corpse from his ste ring, throwing it into the secret chamber.

  The "fragrance" of blood and flesh instantly attracted the attention of the Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas.

  Buzzing sounds echoed in the secret chamber.

  Although these Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas were eager to devour the beast corpse, without Gu He's and, they could only endure, emitting anxious roars.

  Seeing this se, a faint smile appeared on Gu He's lips.

  Very good.

  Although these creatures had low intelligehey had one advahey were absolutely obedient, able to follow orders without any other unnecessary thoughts.

  "All right, you start."

  Gu He gave the and as the creatures became more and mitated.

  As Gu He's voice fell, the Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas that were inally ging to the cave walls turned into several blood-colored shadows, directly poung on the beast corpse.

  ch, ch, ch...

  Following that, the secret chamber echoed with gruesome sounds of tearing and biting, the sound of them feasting.

  After a moment, the beast corpse in the secret chamber was pletely devoured, not a single bo.

  Watg this se, Gu He's eyes sparkled with amazement.

  These dozen or so creatures, after dev such a rge beast corpse, showed no ge in their bodies. It was truly unbelievable.

  Carefully sensing with his soul pu He discovered subtle ges in the Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas.

  It was a ge in their aura!

  After dev the beast corpse, the aura of these Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas became even more bloodthirsty.

  Strands of blood-red energy entwined around them, giving off a chilliion at a gnce.

  "It seems that I'll have t a beast corpse every day iure."

  Seeing this se, Gu He felt somewhat helpless.

  Ohese Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas multiplied, it would probably take extremely powerful beast corpses to sustain them.

  After giving the and for the Bloodthirsty Poisonous Cicadas to stay in the secret chamber and not go out, Gu He slowly walked out of the cave.

  As soon as he stepped out, aremely rich dou qi rushed towards him.

  Looking around, most of the void in the valley had been filled with particle-like mist, making the vision somewhat blurry.

  Releasing his soul pu He could pletely see the situation in the valley.

  With a thought, Gu He's figure appeared o the medie garden.

  During this time, Gu He had taken arip to the Miteer Au House and phe three Tier 6 spiritual herbs they had collected.

  Now, in the medie garden, disregarding the Tier 4 and Tier 5 spiritual herbs, the number of Tier 6 spiritual herbs had reached fifteen.

  Seeing that the spiritual herbs in the garden were growing well, Gu He nodded in satisfa. Then, following the opening created by Cai Er, he left the valley.

  The moment, Gu He's figure returo his own yard.

  Just as he was about to walk towards the pavilion, Gu He suddenly ged his expression, looking towards the dire of the back mountain of Yu.

  "Such a powerful aura..."

  Gu He released his soul power, immediately sensing a strong unfamiliar aura.

  "This is... the Hall of Souls!"
