The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 810 - 329: Handsome Mermaid_2

"Even in the Nether Water where water attribute demons are few, a blind cat will kill a rat by chance, there will definitely be a probability of encounters..."

Hearing Ye Yin’s suggestion, Ye Hanjun nodded and said solemnly,

"Your Indestructible Cockroaches, although they just reached the Great Completion not long ago and cannot continuously advance their status for the time being."

"But the treasures we have obtained recently can be described as numerous, take whatever you need, don’t be shy."

"Ah, I’m not worried about these things."

Ye Yin tapped his cane, feeling somewhat troubled as he said,

"With the recent significant improvement in their diet, the number of GuaGua and the Cockroaches’ libido has increased, they can hatch a batch of offspring every seven days on average, and the total number of human-faced cockroaches will quickly exceed ten thousand."

"However, when we leave, I won’t be able to take them all with me, a significant proportion will remain on the island."

"I have a premonition that with the survival abilities of this species, even if there are aberrant insects and Heart-Devouring Beasts running rampant, they won’t be exterminated."

"When the Asura’s Tomb opens again in ten thousand years, this place will probably become a cockroach paradise."

"Our descendants may not know that there once were evil beasts here, they’ll only know that on the fifteenth level of the Asura’s Tomb, there’s a terrifying island called ’Cockroach Island’, crawling with indestructible cockroaches..."

"..."

Ye Hanjun opened his mouth, the look in his eyes becoming strange as he glanced over Ye Yin’s face.

Truth be told, he hadn’t thought that far ahead.

But now that it was mentioned, if the human-faced cockroaches truly thrived and multiplied continuously for ten thousand years here,

And if a ruler among them emerged to dominate the entire island, anyone coming here would indeed turn pale with fear.

"Children will have their own fortunes; if they encounter us, it’s just their bad luck."

Ye Hanjun ended his reverie and said with a nonchalant smile,

"Rather than that, I think you’re constantly enhancing the reproductive capabilities of the Indestructible Cockroaches."

"Once you leave here, other places will gradually become infested with cockroaches too, you’re leaving more than one surprise for your descendants."

"Ah, let nature take its course."

Unable to think of a better solution, Ye Yin let go of his worries and relaxed, saying,

"Cockroaches as a species have always been one of the oldest symbols among the Insect Fond Spirits, there must be a reason for it."

"But there are so many powerful and rare species from the Near Ancient Era in the tomb, maybe there will be a natural predator of the cockroach species, and when the time comes, survival of the fittest will prevail, and time will bear witness."

...

Fishing, searching for demon blood plasma.

Refining Spiritual Material, raising the status of Contracted Spirit Fond Spirits.

Training at the Gate of Life and Death, improving combat skills.

Before they knew it, three years had passed.

On this day, with the full moon aloft, its soft luminescence spilled over the solitary island, infusing the heart with a tranquil serenity that brought a unique experience.

Surrounded by an army of cockroaches, Ye Hanjun and Ye Yin arrived at the southern side of the island, their solemn expressions indicating that they were fully prepared.

"It’s time to leave this place."

"My children, I leave you here in hopes that you will grow strong."

"Should you one day branch out and establish your own powerful clan, your forebears, the Ancestors of Cockroaches and Mantises, would undoubtedly be heartened..."

Ye Yin squatted down, stroking the surging wave of cockroaches, feeling the hardness of their carapaces, a look of nostalgia and a sigh on his face.

"Ooh——"

Hovering in mid-air, Ye Hanjun held the skull of the Fish King, his body painted with seven-colored demon blood, his feet on deep Nether soil, murmuring incantations as if he were a shaman.

When he finished the summoning chant, the distant mists all dispersed, and a white sailboat appeared silently in the waves, ghost-like, in front of them.

"Let’s go, goodbye."

GuaGua, perched on Ye Hanjun’s shoulder, waved at the thousands of cockroaches tilting their heads upwards.

These little ones might be ugly, but after a few years together, he had grown somewhat fond of them.

"Hiss——"

Fearing that it wouldn’t have more human-faced cockroaches to eat in the future, the snake head took advantage of Ye Yin’s distraction and dived headfirst into the cockroach swarm, vacuuming them up like a whale.

By the time Ye Yin reacted, it had already devoured dozens of cockroaches, its belly protruding and the satisfied burp it accidentally let out contained a hint of contentment.

"You rascal."

Ye Hanjun tapped on Xiaoxiong’s head, and Xiaoxiong shamelessly rubbed back against him.

What’s eaten is eaten and can’t be un-eaten.

Who told them to grow so delicious, crunchy and popping with each bite, truly delectable.

"It’s certain that as long as the Chimera offspring are alive, they’ll be one of the strongest natural predators of the human-faced cockroaches."

"Encountering Xiaoxiong, even GuaGua and the Cockroaches would have no chance to resist..."

Ye Yin sighed, such sneaky eating wasn’t the first time, sometimes even with a pile of meat in front of it, Xiaoxiong still fancied a cockroach snack.

"Roar..."

Little Lazy Lion showed no interest in everyone’s conversation, rising leisurely to its feet, and with a gentle push off the ground, landed neatly on the sailboat.

As Tiantian grew older, its size became increasingly massive.

Goose Immortal, which could once surpass it, was now left far behind.

With a ’plop’, the similarly sized sailboat sank abruptly, splashing water and startling both Ye Hanjun and Ye Yin.

"Old Yin, is this sailboat reliable?"

"I have the feeling... it doesn’t hold weight well?"

Ye Hanjun lost his confidence, and Ye Yin, feeling helpless, tapped his cane and said,

"The designer of this island probably never expected that we would have such a Supreme Saint offspring among us..."

"Fortunately, I didn’t plan to take the whole cockroach army with us, all aboard and if it capsizes in one fell swoop, that would really be something..."
