370: alien gu worms

Li Haotian vanished from before Liu Yu in an instant with a flash.

The map provided by the other party clearly marked the current locations of those Sects.

Following the map, he quickly arrived at his destination.

Below him was a Sect; the Spiritual Qi here was clearly not dense, yet they had established the Sect here.

Li Haotian frowned slightly because he actually sensed strong spatial fluctuations here.

It was as if there were a spatial fissure; after scanning with his Divine Sense, he immediately realized that a spatial fissure had been torn open here by some powerful existence.

Li Haotian never expected that after he had been away for a while, the Alien Race would start stirring again; it seemed the lesson he gave them before wasn't enough.

At this moment, this Sect was holding an Apprenticeship Ceremony, which was a ceremony for recruiting new Disciples.

"Their Sect is very powerful. Among the current Ten Great Sects in the world, our Sect actually ranks sixth, which is enough to show our prestige."

"If you want to successfully join the Sect, you must first undergo a Sect test. Only those who pass the test prove they have the talent to join our Sect."

A white-robed old man stood there with a calm smile on his face.

"If you can pass the test, you can all become our Sect Disciples."

As soon as he spoke, the atmosphere was ignited. Everyone wanted to pass the test and become a part of the Sect; although not number one in the world, the title of sixth in the world was terrifying enough.

Li Haotian's figure flashed and he hid among the crowd of Disciples. He had already sensed an Alien Race aura from the white-robed old man.

The other party was indeed a genuine human, but his aura actually contained an Alien Race scent, which made Li Haotian a bit puzzled.

A large number of Disciples wanting to join the Sect walked together towards a certain direction, where a cave appeared; the so-called test should be inside this cave.

Li Haotian blended in and soon noticed that the aura in the cave was unusually familiar.

This kind of evil aura was something that even a Demonic Cultivator could not possess.

Inside, an extremely powerful Alien Race Powerhouse was hidden; the other party's strength must be very terrifying.

"Alright, the test is inside. Go in. As long as you pass the test, you can become Disciples of our Sect!"

"The Sect's test is very strict. If you fail to pass, the fate awaiting you is very likely death."

"Basically, ninety percent of people can pass the test, and only less than ten percent fail, so everyone can rest assured!"

The crowd immediately erupted in cheers and scrambled to pour into the cave; Li Haotian, mixed in the crowd, also entered with them.

No one thought they would be the unlucky ones among that ten percent; everyone felt they could join the Sect and live a glorious life.

An amused expression couldn't help but appear on Li Haotian's face. Many of these people were Mortals with no talent for Cultivation, so it was basically impossible for them to pass any real test; the test the other party mentioned likely referred to something else.

Just after everyone entered, the surrounding environment suddenly began to change, as if everyone had been teleported elsewhere.

Everyone felt an extremely sweltering environment; only Li Haotian understood they had been transported into a narrow space.

A terrifying monster appeared before everyone. This monster had eight legs, and green viscous liquid constantly dripped from its mouth, sizzling as it touched the ground.

The moment it appeared, everyone immediately erupted in screams and panic. Only a few who were slightly braver and had some Cultivation began to launch attacks against it.

However, their Magic Treasures and attacks landing on this giant monster not only had no effect but even caused the other party to have some abnormal reactions.

"Hahahaha..."

This monster actually spoke human language, then shook its body and forcibly transformed into a human appearance.

Everyone was stunned by the scene before them. Li Haotian just watched calmly, wanting to see what tricks they were trying to play.

"Come, as long as you can swallow this Medicinal Pill, you can become Disciples of our Sect."

While speaking, the man grabbed a handful of Medicinal Pills from his bosom. These pills looked pure white and flawless; some even fell to the ground, emitting a crystalline glow.

The crowd frowned in confusion, not understanding what the person in front of them meant at all.

One of the Powerhouses at the Golden Core Realm stepped forward and picked up a Medicinal Pill. With a gentle squeeze in his hand, a lively, jumping insect was immediately pulled out of the pill by him.

"Hmph, trying to hide a Gu insect inside a Medicinal Pill? Is this your test?"

"Now that I've discovered this situation, does it mean I've passed this stage?"

That Golden Core Powerhouse had a confident smile on his face, thinking that being the first to point out the insect issue would earn him praise. Sure enough, the person opposite him showed a brilliant smile.

"There are indeed good prospects in this batch. To think you could discover this insect so quickly, you have indeed passed the test."

The smile on this person's face looked very sunny, but with just a gentle wave of his hand, that Golden Core Powerhouse's head immediately flew off. His headless corpse collapsed to the ground. The scene terrified everyone into screaming again, and various powerful Cultivators began throwing Magic Treasures at the opponent.

Li Haotian just watched the scene before him with a calm expression.

He now seemed to understand why that fellow just now had an Alien Race aura; it turned out they had been implanted with this kind of Gu.

As their Cultivation increased, the aura of these Gu would naturally increase as well, similar to the insect inside Nezha's body.

Once they reached a certain Realm, those insects would likely be able to invade their brains and then control them, turning them completely into Alien Race Puppets.

After Li Haotian figured this out, he decisively stepped forward.

Everyone had already given up resisting; the strength of the person before them exceeded their imagination. He didn't even need to defend; no matter what means these people used, they couldn't break his skin.

"I advise you to obediently eat these Medicinal Pills, otherwise you will only become food for me to eat. You can make your own choice now."

"To tell you the truth, most of you are Mortals and don't even have Spiritual Roots for Cultivation. You have no chance to Cultivate at all. After eating this Medicinal Pill, perhaps you can use this insect to Cultivate and improve your own strength."
