“I’ll give you two paths,” Lin Ming said coldly.
“I’m willing, I agree!”
A sharp voice sounded.
“Then get the hell out!”
After hearing this voice, Lin Ming snorted coldly.
“Master, Master!”
After Lin Ming finished speaking, a poisonous insect appeared in front of Lin Ming.
“You Little Guy, you’re quite powerful, you can create double illusions,” Lin Ming looked at the poisonous insect and said.
“This is the ability of our nine-headed worm. If we evolve to the highest level, we can create a nine-layered dream realm!”
After hearing Lin Ming’s words, the poisonous insect said proudly.
“Nine-layered dream realm?”
Lin Ming frowned. With this power, it could be said that most people would be trapped.
“What level can you trap? With your current power, even I, a level-7 mage, would find it difficult for you to trap me,” Lin Ming said.
“Your level-7 is too different from others’ level-7.”
“An ordinary mage or a level-9 mage would find it difficult to escape,” the nine-headed worm said.
“Among the people who were just controlled, there were some level-9 mages.”
The nine-headed worm hated it the most when others questioned the power he controlled.
“As long as you are in the illusion, you will be controlled if you take down or eat anything.”
The nine-headed worm spoke again.
“Your current strength is at most level-9, right?”
Lin Ming asked.
“Yes, it is indeed very difficult to control someone with level-10 strength.”
The nine-headed worm still admitted to this matter.
“However, up until now, I’ve only produced two heads, and can only create a double illusion. If a third head appears, then I can completely control a level-10 expert,” the nine-headed worm said confidently.
“Sage Realm expert, how many heads do you need?”
Only three heads were needed to control a level-10 expert.
This was simply a monstrous poisonous insect.
Moreover, the upper limit of this nine-headed worm could be understood from its name.
The highest level was to give birth to nine heads.
“Six,” the nine-headed worm said.
“What’s your upper limit?”
Lin Ming still asked.
“Nine heads, nine layered dream realm. A Sage Realm level expert can be controlled by it,” the nine-headed worm said.
“You must have read the myths and legends,” Lin Ming sneered and said.
“What I said is true. It’s true. However, our clan has been cursed by the Dragon clan. It’s very difficult for us to break through again after giving birth to three heads.”
At this moment, when the nine-headed worm heard Lin Ming’s doubts again, it was obvious that it was very unwilling.
“The Dragon clan’s curse?”
When he heard this, Lin Ming’s interest was piqued.
When Lin Ming was on earth, he had heard of some grudges between the nine-headed worm and the Dragon clan.
However, those were also myths and legends.
He did not expect that it would really come true in this world.
“Yes, our ancestors also participated in that great battle and created the nine-layered dream realm, causing many Sage Realm experts to fall into it.”
Among them, even some of the powerful dragons were not spared.
“In the end, our ancestors were ambushed by the dragons and cursed by them. The curses of those who have reached the Sage Realm and above can affect our bloodlines.”
The nine-headed worm spoke in a somewhat indignant manner.
“Therefore, up until now, the strongest among us nine-headed worms can only reach three heads, which is the level of a level-10 expert.”
The nine-headed worm told Lin Ming about itself.
“That’s useless. Although level-10 sounds very strong, it’s still not enough,” Lin Ming smiled and said.
Level-10 strength was one of the few experts in the outside world.
Even some of the heads of the strongest families in the capital had just reached level-10 strength but level ten strength was really not enough for Lin Ming.
“Level-10 is still not enough, you really are…”
Hearing Lin Ming’s words, coupled with Lin Ming’s constant provocation, he was finally anxious.
“So it means that the three heads of you will not be able to break through.”
“It is because you have this kind of thinking,” Lin Ming said.
Whether it was a human or this poisonous insect in front of him, as long as it was bound by his thoughts, no matter what it was, it would be difficult for it to improve again.
“Don’t just stand there and say it. Then why are you only using level-7 magic?”
The nine-headed worm also did not want to be outdone.
“Although I am a level-7 mage, I also have two elements. The other element, dark magic, has already reached level-9,” Lin Ming said.
Although this was the power that the Demon King had transferred to him, it was his own.
“Also, it has only been less than a year since I started cultivating. Tell me, how long did it take for you to give birth to two heads?”
Lin Ming spoke again, looking at the nine-headed worm with ridicule.
“Less than a year since you started cultivating? I think you must be dreaming.”
He had just witnessed Lin Ming’s dual-element cultivation.
He had only spoken to refute Lin Ming to gain some respect.
“I’m too lazy to talk to you. Have you considered the two choices?”
Lin Ming waved his hand and asked.
Lin Ming was very interested in subduing the nine-headed worm, especially after hearing about the nine-headed worm’s origin.
“Two choices. You didn’t say it just now. Tell me now,” the nine-headed worm said.
“Either die or sign a contract with me,” Lin Ming said.
“I knew you would say that. Okay, I’ll sign it,” the nine-headed worm said helplessly.
His life was in Lin Ming’s hands at this moment.
If Lin Ming wanted to take his life, he simply couldn’t resist.
“One look and I can tell that you have too much brain and enough intelligence.”
Lin Ming smiled. Look, having one more brain was useful.
A wise man submits to circumstances. Two heads of this nine-headed worm were equivalent to two wise men.
“Come.”
Lin Ming spoke.
“Respected God of Contract! I am willing to sign a contract with the nine-headed worm!”
Lin Ming summoned the God of Contract.
“Respected God of Contract, I am willing to serve Lin Ming as my master…”
As the two of them made the contract, the contract was officially activated.
“You are also about to break through?”
Lin Ming looked at the nine-headed worm and asked.
Just now, they had signed the contract.
Lin Ming could sense that the nine-headed worm was about to break through.
“Yes, but after breaking through for a long time, it was still unable to give birth to a third head.”
The nine-headed worm nodded and sighed, but there was nothing it could do.
“Let me help you.”
Lin Ming smiled and directly sent an extremely pure power of energy and blood into the nine-headed worm’s body.
The nine-headed worm felt an intense heat flow, which attacked its body, causing its body to be instantly surrounded by a wave of power.
