Chapter 1409

In order to train the Heaven Swallowing Demon Butterfly well, he once read some classics of insect cultivators.

The current situation is very similar to raising Gu.

What is Gu?

Just as it is now, the swarm kills each other to breed the strongest Gu worms.

It's just that cultivating Gu is the work of worm cultivators, but the behavior of the butterfly group right now is spontaneous.

Gu Chen realized the possibility behind this tragic scene, so he didn't take any action to stop it, and observed quietly.

He observed for a day and a night, and slowly discovered some clues.

First of all, the cannibalism of the insect swarm began with the magic butterflies that ate the flesh and blood of the insect king.

They have changed the most after eating the flesh and blood of the insect king, so Gu Chen can recognize them at a glance.

Gu Chen found that less than one out of ten of these magic butterflies could evolve smoothly after eating the flesh and blood of the insect king, and most of them died inexplicably in the end.

After they died, perhaps unable to resist the attraction of evolution, other companions scrambled to eat their corpses, which triggered a large-scale cannibalism.

Secondly, the very few demon butterflies that have successfully evolved have greatly increased their ferocity, and will actively attack other non-evolved companions, thus intensifying the massacre.

Under the superimposition of the two reasons, the killing situation continued to deteriorate, which eventually led to a sharp decline in the number of butterflies.

"The butterflies are so red-eyed, even my orders are hard to be effective. It seems that we can only let the situation develop."

Gu Chen considered for a long time and realized that not intervening is the best choice.

This is a law of survival of the fittest in nature, but in the butterfly group, it is even more naked.

The insect king was able to evolve all the way to the pinnacle of the race back then, because he stepped on the corpses of countless creatures.

Now the butterfly group wants to transform, the same is true.

If the situation continues like this, there will eventually be two possibilities.

One is the complete extinction of the butterfly group, and finally a new insect king is born.

The second is that after the number of butterflies dropped sharply to a certain level, they formed a compromise with each other, and finally stopped killing, forming a new and stronger group.

No matter what the possibility is, as long as Gu Chen ensures that his control is still there, there will be no major problems.

"May as many of you as possible survive."

Gu Chen sighed, the butterflies had helped him too much from the past to now, and he didn't want only one to survive in the end.

The spiritual consciousness withdrew from the inner space, Gu Chen got up, pushed open the door of the room, and ended this retreat.

Outside the house, the sky is clear, blue sky and white clouds, a scene of indifference to the world.

"It's been so long, I don't know what's going on with the outside world? Has Lei County's blockade been relaxed, or is it getting tighter?"

Gu Chen thought that it was time to go back to Xing County to do some business, and he let Wu Li do the same. If he went back later, it might endanger the safety of the Ninth Realm.

After thinking for a while, he went to the residence of the ancestor of the Qian family.

In the past two months, other people should have been retreating and cultivating like myself, after all, they have all obtained different degrees of fortune.

Although the patriarch of the Qian family lives in seclusion, he has a lot of information channels in his hands, so he should have some understanding of the outside world.

Gu Chen soon saw the patriarch of the Qian family, who was picking fresh melons and fruits in his vegetable garden, enjoying himself.

"Gu Xiaoyou hasn't seen you for a few days, and he looks radiant a lot, maybe it's because of his great power?"

Seeing Gu Chen, the patriarch of the Qian family greeted him enthusiastically, and saw his breakthrough from his expression.

"It is indeed a small improvement, thanks to the old Patriarch Qian taking in."

Gu Chen smiled politely, and purple light flashed quietly in his eyes.

Under his deep sea purple pupils, the ancestor of the Qian family's cultivation can be seen at a glance, which is the realm of the seventh heaven.

This cultivation base is second to none in the longevity world except for the old Xuanwu, which is not easy.

But to the current Gu Chen, it is nothing.

He could easily see through the old Patriarch Qian, but the old Patriarch Qian couldn't see through him.

Gu Chen secretly used the deep sea purple pupil to spy, not because he couldn't trust the old Patriarch Qian, but because of habit.

He was a little curious about the origin of the other party's cultivation. Last time he said that he was proficient in numerology, but after Gu Chen snooped, although he couldn't figure out what kind of origin he was, he didn't look like the fate monks he had come into contact with.

But this doesn't mean anything. Being proficient in numerology doesn't mean you have to practice the law of destiny. You may just be interested in practicing Taoism in this area.

If this is the case, the patriarch of the Qian family was able to judge the situation and pretend to be dead, and then let Fatty Qian participate in the Xuanwu Banquet.

He is a businessman, and it is not surprising that he can do business in so many worlds.

"Gu Xiaoyou came to see this old man, presumably he wanted to ask about the outside world?" the ancestor of the Qian family asked proactively.

Gu Chen nodded immediately.

"In the past two months, Lei County's blockade has not been lifted. I heard that there are more troops stationed at the Chaos Path Window."

"However, the long-term blockade of the Chaos Path and Window has also attracted a lot of doubts from the outside world. I heard that many spies from various counties in the Chaos Sea have gone outside the Longevity Realm, and have been inquiring about the survivors of the Chaos Secret Land."

"Things are ups and downs, but there is also news about you, Gu Xiaoyou."

The patriarch of the Qian family sighed, when he mentioned Gu Chen, his eyes were full of meaning.

"Oh? I don't know what's the news about me?"

Gu Chen knew that the ancestor of the Qian family must know his real identity, and he didn't intend to hide this, otherwise he wouldn't use his real name.

"A Tianying and a Heavenly Punishment General from Xing County have disappeared in the Longevity World one after another. Xing County has been putting pressure on Lei County in the name of this."

"You also know that the relationship between Xing County and Lei County has always been bad. Because of this matter, the border between the two counties has been tense recently."

The patriarch of the Qian family shook his head and sighed. "Under the cloud of war, it is becoming more and more difficult for a family like my Qian family to do business in various counties. Especially once the chaos is closed, the money will be lost countless times every day."

"Isn't the Qian family's business all in the world under Lei Jun's banner?" Gu Chen was surprised when he heard this.

"My Qian family's business is bigger than Gu Xiaoyou imagined." The ancestor of the Qian family smiled meaningfully.

"Oh?"

Gu Chen couldn't help thinking deeply, the ancestor of the Qian family seemed to want to show off the financial power of the Qian family to him, but why?

He didn't think much about it, and he was more concerned about the current situation. If Xingjun and Leijun fought, he would be happy to see it, but it would not be good if he was the fuse.

It seems that it is time to solve all the problems and leave the longevity world as soon as possible.

"Gu Xiaoyou, I have something to ask you."

Seeing that Gu Chen didn't respond to his words, the patriarch of the Qian family sighed again.

"Patriarch Qian has something to say." Gu Chen came back to his senses.

"The old man wants to ask Gu Xiaoyou to take Darong with him." The ancestor of the Qian family said sincerely.
