Checking in for 100,000 Years-Chapter 447
"Master, the bloodline of this clansman of mine is incredibly thin, and it has experienced death many times." πππππ¨π²πππ¨π―ππ.ππΌπΊ
The Immortal Divine Silkworm remarked with a sigh after observing the white silkworm.
Ye Yun nodded silently.
Although the Immortal Divine Silkworm in the Cloud Mark Cave in the Divine Land was of the same species, it simply wasnβt comparable to the one in his warehouse.
Its bloodline was extremely weak.
It had long fallen out of the category of Immortal Level demon beasts.
That was why this particular Immortal Divine Silkworm could live inside the Cloud Mark Cave of the Divine Land.
"Are you saying it has lived for a long time?"
Moved, Ye Yun turned to the Immortal Divine Silkworm and asked.
"It should have, Master. Please wait a moment; let me see just how many times it has died."
The Immortal Divine Silkworm moved beside the white silkworm, its antenna cautiously touching the white silkwormβs antenna.
As their antennae met, the Immortal Divine Silkworm closed its eyes.
The white silkworm didnβt dare to move a muscle.
"Ah, truly enviable! You Immortal Divine Silkworms are virtually Eternal Life Forms. Once your life ends, you can be reborn after consuming a certain amount of energy."
A nearby divine pet, its form a hazy black silhouette, let out an envious sigh.
"Whatβs there to envy? Itβs not the only eternal demonic beast here," another divine pet retorted disdainfully.
Listening to the divine petsβ conversation, Ye Yun gradually recalled certain memories.
The Immortal Divine Silkworm, known as an Immortal Level demon beast, was also considered an Eternal Life Form, possessing an incredibly long and ancient lifespan.
Before death, as long as it consumed the energy stored in its body and spun a cocoon, it could live a new life after a lengthy incubation period.
However, only Immortal Divine Silkworms with the purest bloodlines could retain memories from their previous lives.
As for other Immortal Divine Silkworms, they would lose most of their memories.
The more diluted the bloodline, the more memories it would lose, and likewise, the fewer times it could die and be reborn.
"Sirs, Iβm not as strong as you imagine!" the Immortal Divine Silkworm suddenly said, opening its eyes and looking around fearfully, its tone humble.
HAHAHA... A roar of laughter instantly erupted from the surroundings.
It seemed those terrifying demonic beasts were quite satisfied with the Immortal Divine Silkwormβs humble demeanor.
After all, they were much stronger than it.
Thereβs always a higher mountain; here, no divine pet could afford to be too arrogant.
"Master, this Immortal Divine Silkworm has lived for approximately an era and has experienced death nine times. Itβs currently on its ninth life. If it dies again, it wonβt be able to be reborn," the Immortal Divine Silkworm said very seriously.
"Lived for an era?"
Ye Yunβs heart skipped a beat; he was extremely shocked.
In the world of the Divine Land, to live for an era is an unbelievably long time. Its lifespan is even more ancient than that of a Divine Dragon. It has witnessed the rise and fall of this world across hundreds of millions of years...
Itβs a pity, though. This Immortal Divine Silkworm has a diluted bloodline and has already died nine times. It probably doesnβt remember much.
"Great Silkworm Emperor, please save me!"
Hearing the Immortal Divine Silkwormβs words, the white silkworm seemed to realize something. As if grasping a final lifeline, it began to kowtow repeatedly on the ground.
It had lived for an extraordinarily long time. Due to its diluted bloodline, it had only nine chances at rebirth, all of which it had already used up.
It had lost all hope, only wishing to live out its current life safely and soundly.
Unexpectedly, in its despair, it encountered the Silkworm Emperor of its own kind.
If the Silkworm Emperor spared just a drop of its blood, the white silkworm could gain one more chance at rebirth.
If it had the opportunity to follow the Silkworm Emperor and perform well, it could earn even more chances to be reborn.
Having lived for such a long time, although many memories had vanished, the opportunistic creature did not give up on this excellent chance before it.
"Master, should I save it?" the Immortal Divine Silkworm asked Ye Yun earnestly.
"If it is willing to submit to me, you can give it a chance," Ye Yun said with a gentle smile.
He wanted to take in this Immortal Divine Silkworm because he realized something. This little creature had lived for such a long time; even if many memories were lost, it might recall something useful eventually. That would be very important to him. Perhaps this Immortal Divine Silkworm knew the origin of the Seven Stars. It might even provide some useful information later about the Blood-colored Broken Sword sealed by the Ancestor Dragon.
Upon hearing Ye Yunβs words, the white silkworm immediately scrambled to Ye Yunβs feet, kowtowing constantly and exclaiming loudly, "Thank you, Master! I am willing to submit to you and will brave any danger without hesitation!"
"Get up."
Seeing that the white silkwormβs attitude was acceptable, Ye Yun waved his hand gently, signifying his acceptance of the creatureβs submission.
"You little creature, follow the Master dutifully from now on. If you displease the Master, I wonβt give you another chance at rebirth," the Immortal Divine Silkworm threatened the white silkworm fiercely.
"Silkworm Emperor, rest assured. I am one of your subjects; how could I possibly do such a thing?" the white silkworm said quickly, a look of grievance in its eyes.
Since even their Silkworm Emperor was this white-robed Masterβs Divine Pet, how could this Immortal Divine Silkworm, with its diluted bloodline, dare to harbor any rebellious thoughts?
"Alright, letβs go out first," Ye Yun said, waving at the divine pets in the warehouse. Taking the white silkworm with him, he instantly left the warehouse and reappeared inside the Cloud Mark Cave.
Liu Yiyi waited quietly.
She knew Brother Yun had some secrets, but she wasnβt curious. As Brother Yunβs woman, Liu Yiyi knew what was appropriate.
"Go and retrieve your main body," Ye Yun said calmly, tossing the white silkworm in his hand into the air.
"Okay, Master!" the Immortal Divine Silkworm replied obediently, then turned into a beam of light and vanished into mid-air.
The entirety of Cloud Mark Cave suddenly fluctuated violently, and many white orbs of light appeared in various places.
"This little fellow has quite a few doppelgangers," Ye Yun commented with a chuckle.
The ability to create doppelgangers was one of the Immortal Divine Silkwormβs Innate Divine Abilities.
Among all these doppelgangers, one of them had to be its main body.
All its doppelgangers and its main body fused, transforming into a white Giant Silkworm tens of meters long. It came whistling from a distance and landed at Ye Yunβs feet.
A burst of white light flashed.
The massive body instantly shrank to about a meter in size.
"Master, Iβm here. All the doppelgangers have fused with the main body. Please take me away from this Cloud Mark Cave," the Immortal Divine Silkworm said with a laugh, its voice filled with yearning for the outside world.
Ye Yunβs expression shifted slightly. He asked, "How much of your past livesβ memories do you still recall?"
"Reporting to Master, I only remember my first master was called Cloud Trace Taoist; he was the creator of the Cloud Mark Cave. From my first life to my ninth, it seems Iβve always hidden here, feeding on the energy of creatures that perished," the Immortal Divine Silkworm replied honestly.
"HMM."
Ye Yun nodded. In an instant, he activated his Sky Exterminating Phantom Eye and scanned the Immortal Divine Silkwormβs memories. He found its sea of consciousness to be empty, almost desolate.
Although all of this Immortal Divine Silkwormβs memories have supposedly vanished, some parts must be hidden within its bloodline. As this ninth-life body matures, some memories should gradually awaken, Ye Yun mused to himself.
With this thought, he was no longer anxious.
Acquiring an ancient demon beast that had lived for an epoch was a huge gain from his journey to the Divine Land.
