Yes, they are Netherworld insects!
Having finally seen the Netherworld River, Chu Mo would never forget this. Although he didn't know how to capture the Netherworld insects yet, he at least wanted to see these legendary creatures first.
When he reached the waterfall, the pile of golden fish scales was still in the sa place but what surrounded them took Chu Mo by surprise.
A dense mass... a large swathe of wriggling insects surrounded the pile of golden fish scales, the nearest already climbing onto them and beginning to gnaw.
This scene would cause even the faint-hearted to collapse in fright!
Even Chu Mo felt his stomach churning.
It was truly nauseating!
Instinctively, Chu Mo glanced at it with his Heavenly Eyes.
"Netherworld insects, originated from the Netherworld River, are a special kind of creature that contains life and death energies. Extrely rare. Highly poisonous, do not touch."
Not many creatures could elicit such a conclusion from the Heavenly Eyes, but what stunned Chu Mo even more was the sense of speechlessness.
Could my qi movent be really so strong?
Chu Mo scratched his head, feeling quite speechless himself. At the sa ti, he couldn't help but think a strange thought: Was I sucked into this land of sin, or did I co in so other way?
Because it was indeed too bizarre.
According to Wang Zhong, the first generation of cultivators here, no matter why they ca, shared one inescapable reason—they had violated the Heavenly Dao! But for various reasons, they weren't yet to die. They would be sucked into this despairing world.
Once here, they would lose all cultivation. The more cultivated a being was, the longer they lived because, although their powers were sealed, the strength within their bodies remained. It couldn't be used but could provide them with an extended life expectancy.
This wasn't good news for any cultivator.
Because the longer you live in such a place, the greater the tornt.
This place was a true prison, a prison set by the Heavenly Dao, making all creatures who entered feel despair.
But look at him again... Just as Wang Zhong thought, Chu Mo's entrance into this place felt more like a bizarre adventure! Not only did he gain a lot, but he also comprehended another Dao!
He also developed the proper reverence for the true Heavenly Dao!
Talking about man conquering heaven is simply nonsense.
Seas change into mulberry fields, everyone dies eventually, but the heavens always remain.
No matter the past, present, or future, this never changes.
That's why Chu Mo was doubtful and puzzled.
But now was not the ti for doubts. The banks were packed with Netherworld insects, and more kept crawling up from the Netherworld River... literally in the billions!
There were simply too many!
Chu Mo tried, using his magic power to draw one over, suppressing his disgust as he examined it.
Actually, looking at a Netherworld insect individually, it wasn't as disgusting as he had imagined. It resembled more a black snake the length of chopsticks.
Controlled by Chu Mo's power, it twisted awkwardly in the void, constantly emitting bursts of strange power from its body. This power was a mix of life and death energies, giving a very bizarre feeling.
Chu Mo thought about the Heavenly Eyes' identification of the Netherworld insect: A unique creature containing life and death energies. He thought: Could this thing be sothing that walks the edge of life and death?
According to normal understanding, a creature only has two states, one is alive, the other is dead.
And the Netherworld insects before his eyes seed to be living in a third state of existence!
They belonged neither to living beings nor to the dead.
"No wonder these things ... allow the Creation Fish to grow," Chu Mo, with his current level of cultivation, still found it difficult to comprehend the mysteries between life and death. Without dwelling on it further, he directly placed the Netherworld insect into the pool of the Azure Sky Divine Mirror.
Since this thing was extrely toxic and untouchable, Chu Mo was sowhat anxious, thinking that if the big rooster's words were unreliable, then the pool of Creation Fish might be completely ruined.
However, it turned out that although the big rooster was sotis unreliable, when it ca to crucial matters, it was quite dependable.
As soon as the Netherworld insect was placed into the pool, it instantly went mad, frantically fleeing towards the depths of the pool as if it felt a fatal threat!
Simultaneously, the usually very calm Creation Fish also went crazy, furiously rushing towards the Netherworld insect.
Almost instantly, that poor... supposedly highly toxic Netherworld insect was torn apart by four or five frenzied Creation Fish!
Torn to shreds!
The other Creation Fish that didn't get a piece were also frantically swimming around, seemingly becoming excited all at once!
"It really works!" Chu Mo was utterly stunned.
Then, he began continuously drawing these Netherworld insects into the Azure Sky Divine Mirror.
Initially, Chu Mo controlled the number, fearing he might overfeed the Creation Fish. But later, he simply started tossing large amounts of Netherworld insects into the pool.
The Creation Fish were crazy enough to eat as much as there was available!
Many of the Creation Fish, after consuming a large amount of Netherworld insects, began to rapidly grow in size. One of them, having eaten the most Netherworld insects, expanded threefold in size under Chu Mo's watchful eye in a short amount of ti!
Chu Mo's mouth twitched, feeling as if his understanding of the creatures of nature had been completely overturned.
At that mont, Chu Mo clearly saw the largest of the Creation Fish begin to lay eggs!
Excitent flashed across Chu Mo's face!
Even in the Heavenly Realm, Creation Fish were an extrely rare treasure, not just for their value in cultivation but also as a delicacy, which could tempt even an emperor.
If they could be bred in large quantities, then in the future, it would an a continual source of wealth!
However, what happened next left Chu Mo sowhat dumbfounded.
The eggs laid by the Creation Fish, as soon as they entered the water, imdiately vanished into nothingness... turning into energy and dispersing in the water!
A large number of eggs... followed one after another, and then, without exception, all dissolved!
At that mont, Chu Mo suddenly rembered sothing—reincarnation pool water!
He slapped his forehead, cursing himself for his stupidity. The big rooster had once said that in order to breed the Creation Fish and have them lay eggs, it was necessary to feed them Netherworld insects and keep them in reincarnation pool water.
At that ti, Chu Mo did not understand the true aning of these words, and perhaps not even the big rooster knew why; otherwise, he would have made it clear to Chu Mo.
"What do I do now?" Chu Mo looked dumbfounded as he watched the Creation Fish grow one by one, lay eggs, and then... all the eggs dissolved in the water.
Wasn't that just a complete waste of so many Netherworld insects?
Chu Mo couldn't help but look back at the largely emptied riverbank, but he was relieved to see even more Netherworld insects being lured out from the Netherworld River by the golden fish scales.
