A week later!
Fumen Breeding Farm, Underground Poisonous Insects Cultivation Base.
Strife, shrieks, blood, and insect cries constantly occurred here.
When everything had returned to calm, the several-tens-of-meters-long body of the thousand-hand centipede began to grow layers of insect cocoons, wrapping its entire body as it entered a state of transformation.
Su Jie sat cross-legged in front of the thousand-hand centipede. The low-grade poisonous insects accumulated in the base had once again been devoured by the thousand-hand centipede, which had finally stepped into the much-anticipated fifth Spirit Refining stage for Su Jie.
In the dim Underground Gu Insect Base, the giant insect cocoon seemed to be breathing, akin to a beating heart, expanding and contracting rhythmically.
The cocoon swelled increasingly larger as it expanded, providing more sustenance for the poisonous insect incubating inside.
