Chapter 168 (1/2)

I was disappointed and wanted to leave here. My foot stepped on the sludge. The sludge was separated to both sides. Suddenly, I saw some small star animals like earthworms in the sludge.

They drilled out of the sludge, and then soon got into the sludge and disappeared. They moved quickly in the sludge. Before I could see it clearly, they had lost their trace.

Are these star beasts that I have never seen living in this quagmire? Curious, I reached out to dig up the sludge and caught an earthworm like star beast that had no time to escape.

The captured earthworm like star beast wanted to escape, but after leaving the sludge, its action became very slow and there was no way to escape.

I carefully looked at the star beast and carefully recalled all kinds of star beast atlas I had seen in my head.

A moment later, I had a flash in my mind and suddenly thought of a spirit beast that had disappeared for a long time.

I read relevant records in a book, which said that this kind of star beast I caught.

This star beast is called eudemon. It is a star beast with changing shape as it grows.

Like a butterfly, different stages have different forms. The origin of the name eudemon is precisely because its form is constantly changing.

Eudemon is not aggressive. It is a low-level star beast. It feeds on small insects in the sludge and is at the low end of the food chain.

They used to be everywhere in the new world.

When Eudemons were young, they were like earthworms. When they grow up, they will become like fish.

Adult Eudemons are birds with wings.

Adult eudemon is the most delicious food. Raw and cooked food are excellent delicacies. It is a very famous delicacy in the new world.

It is precisely because they are very delicious food, loved by humans and the vast majority of carnivorous star beasts, endlessly captured, and have been extinct for hundreds of years.

I also read about Eudemons, saying that the more important reason why humans catch Eudemons is that adult Eudemons secrete a white colloidal substance on their body surface. This colloidal substance is a natural elixir that can prolong human life.

This white gelatinous substance is named life prolonging cream by humans. It is said that taking one or two of this life prolonging cream can make an ordinary person live ten more years.

If it is a warrior, because it can be absorbed more thoroughly, this number has reached an amazing 20 years.

For human beings, ten or twenty years are very precious. It is difficult to buy and find thousands of gold.

Under normal circumstances, the life span of human beings is only about a hundred years. Even if a martial artist reaches a high level of cultivation, he will have an additional life span of up to several decades.

Taking the life prolonging cream will add ten or twenty years of life at once. Anyone will try their best to get the life prolonging cream.

So many years ago, when humans discovered this, they began to catch Eudemons endlessly, want to raise them, and get longevity ointment from them when they grow up.

Over time, no matter where the Eudemons are, they are all captured by humans, and we can no longer find a wild Eudemons.

The Eudemons kept by humans, I don't know what's going on, slowly degenerated. After they multiplied for several generations, they slowly stopped breeding, and no new Eudemons were born.
