Chapter 373: Chapter 366: The Battle of the Two Gu_1
“Master, let me deal with it!”
The Green Silk Worm, having just completed its advancement, sensed its master being attacked and immediately volunteered to confront the Black Spider Gu wreaking havoc inside him.
“Hurry up and do it!”
Qin Niu was already in so much pain that his eyes were rolling back, almost exerting all his strength to issue commands to the Green Silk Worm.
The Green Silk Worm promptly burrowed into his nostrils.
He instantly felt an itch in his nose, followed by a series of sneezes.
Thankfully, the Green Silk Worm quickly made its way in.
It now possessed the ability to transform and navigate freely inside Qin Niu’s body.
After a while, Qin Niu felt an even greater pain in his stomach.
He writhed on the ground in agony, his cries of pain unable to alleviate the suffering of his body.
He was in too much pain to even curse at the Green Silk Worm.
The Green Silk Worm, without the ability, still insisted on confronting the Black Spider Gu.
Now, not only had it failed to subdue the Black Spider Gu but it had also aggravated its ferocity.
Just when Qin Niu was on the verge of fainting from pain multiple times, he was overjoyed to discover that the pain in his head was diminishing. Like ice and snow melting away, his head no longer felt as tight.
Then, his stomach didn’t hurt as much either.
As the severe pain eased slightly, out of curiosity, he immediately inspected the Green Silk Worm’s situation through internal vision.
Inside his abdominal cavity, he saw a mass of black energy entwined with a mass of green energy, tumbling and intertwined.
They were coiled together like two snakes.
“Green Silk Worm, can you bring it outside?”
Qin Niu communicated with the Green Silk Worm through his thoughts.
“No… can!”
The Green Silk Worm seemed very strained.
It only replied with two words and then fell silent. It was entangled in a fierce battle with the Black Spider Gu, unable to break free.
Qin Niu had been tormented by this Black Spider Gu for nearly two days, and he was on the verge of collapse.
Now that it had finally revealed itself, he had to think of a way to assist the Green Silk Worm in killing it.
He tried to use the power of his Everlasting Spring Technique to attack the black energy.
But it was of no use.
His Medicine King Sutra had only been cultivated to the Acquired Realm and thus he wasn’t able to channel power to attack the Black Spider Gu.
Even if he could attack, it probably wouldn’t be of much use.
The Medicine King Sutra and Everlasting Spring Technique he practiced were not combat Cultivation Techniques.
Moreover, this Black Spider Gu itself had an extremely strong defensive capacity. Even Elder Mei couldn’t handle it.
Qin Niu, finding that power attacks were ineffective, immediately switched to another method, mobilizing his spiritual power to launch an attack on it.
It was strange.
When the spiritual power hit it, it was like hitting a clump of air.
Qin Niu did not know whether it was because he was not skilled in mental attacks or because the Black Spider Gu was too special, immune to Mental Attacks.
Since it was inside his body, he was at a loss for what to do for a moment.
Time was slipping by.
The green energy formed by the Green Silk Worm seemed slightly inferior, gradually losing ground.
Even so, it was already very powerful.
It was the only one among all Qin Niu’s creatures that could contend with the Black Spider Gu.
“If only I could get it out of my body!”
Qin Niu frowned, painfully contemplating a strategy.
Use bait of blood to lure it?
It was inside Qin Niu’s body, able to freely feast on his blood and energy, so there was no chance it would come out.
Fourth and the ten Demon Ants had consumed the Blood Gu, which granted them the ability to transform.
They should also be able to burrow into Qin Niu’s body and fight.
Perhaps he should have them assist the Green Silk Worm in combat.
Fourth and the Demon Ants had extremely formidable combat power. They would certainly be able to inflict damage on the Black Spider Gu.
“Fourth, burrow into my stomach, kill that Black Spider Gu or lure it out.”
Qin Niu issued the combat command.
Fourth immediately crawled into his nostril, but after a while, it came back out.
“Master, it’s outside the intestines. I can’t get to it.”
Fourth burrowed into Qin Niu through his nostrils, either entering his lungs through the trachea or his stomach through the esophagus before making its way to the intestines.
But the Black Spider Gu was outside the intestines, so unless Fourth bit through Qin Niu’s intestines, it had no way to get out.
“Don’t you have shape-shifting abilities? Can’t you pass through the intestinal wall?”
Qin Niu asked.
“I can’t.”
It was quite helpless.
This left Qin Niu perplexed, how did the Green Silk Worm get through the intestinal wall?
“Green Silk Worm, how did you get through my intestines to the outside?”
“I don’t know…”
The situation of the Green Silk Worm seemed to be very bad, completely suppressed.
“Master… I can’t defeat this Black Gu, I can’t hold on much longer.”
It pleaded to Qin Niu for help.
“But I can’t help you!”
Qin Niu had already tried various methods he could think of, all ineffective against the Black Spider Gu.
As soon as he finished speaking, the mass of green qi within his body began to flee.
Qin Niu paid close attention with his thoughts.
He saw it easily pass through the intestinal wall and then enter the intestines, escaping outwards along the gut.
In the blink of an eye, it had burrowed out through Qin Niu’s nostrils.
With similar shape-shifting abilities, the Green Silk Worm was clearly much more formidable than Fourth.
Qin Niu even suspected the Green Silk Worm was originally part insect, part Gu.
Because the way the Green Silk Worm devoured the Blood Gu was completely different from how Termite did.
It seemed much more effortless.
As if a mantis eating a fly was that simple.
Not long after the Green Silk Worm had escaped, he felt abdominal pain again.
The Black Spider Gu had started causing trouble again.
Qin Niu kept monitoring it with his thoughts.
When the Green Silk Worm fled, it chased for a distance, but as soon as the Green Silk Worm passed through the intestinal wall into the interior of the intestines, it did not pursue any further.
Then the black qi slowly dissipated, and eventually, its shadow was no longer visible.
As if it had vanished without a trace once again.
This is the terrifying aspect of Gu.
When scattered, they become formless; when gathered, they form insects, and if they want to hide, they are utterly untraceable.
He was a bit worried before that the Green Silk Worm would be eaten by it if it lost the fight.
It turned out that even if the Green Silk Worm couldn’t win, escaping was not a problem at all.
This gave Qin Niu a few more opportunities to try.
While the pain in his belly was still just starting and within the range he could bear, he hurriedly communicated with the Green Silk Worm.
After escaping, the Green Silk Worm seemed to be exhausted.
It had automatically crawled onto Qin Niu’s head, sucking the blood from his scalp.
“Green Silk Worm, would you dare to fight it again next time?”
“I dare!”
“Can you escape if you can’t beat it?”
“I can escape any time.”
“In a moment, you go back inside and deal with it, and I’ll think of a way to try to get rid of it.”
Qin Niu issued the order.
One thing subdues another.
Right now, he had no way to find where the Black Spider Gu was hiding. But as long as the Green Silk Worm entered his body, it could coax the Black Spider Gu out.
This was very important.
As long as he forced it to reveal itself, he could think of a way to get rid of it.
As the Black Spider Gu released its poison within him once more, he soon was in unbearable pain, rolling on the ground, screaming incessantly.
The Green Silk Worm had sucked his blood and rested for so long, it had almost fully recovered.
It entered Qin Niu’s body again to help deal with that rampaging Black Spider Gu.
Before long, that mass of black qi once again coalesced inside the abdominal cavity and started fighting with the Green Silk Worm.
