Chapter 588 - Brain-Devouring Insect (1/2)

After hearing the explanation, Fang Ning asked the System, “I remember you have a Poison Prevention Orb that can cure all poisons under Legendary level. Will it work for this type of poisonous insect?”

“Nope.” The System was completely blunt.

‘Then what even are you good for?’

Fang Ning subconsciously started thinking, but he only dared to think in his heart and not say it out loud. The System was good for too many things…

“I know that you’re saying I’m useless again…” The System said bitterly.

“That’s not it. Nobody is perfect, there’s also no such thing as a perfect System. I’m very content with you now, so you don’t have to be upset.” Fang Ning quickly placated.

“Oh, of course I’m not upset. I’m just annoyed that that Poison Prevention Orb is too useless. There’re so many red dots, but I can’t even farm a single one.” The System said gloomily.

“That makes sense. There are several million people in Qi City, and more than 90% of them have been infected by this poisonous insect. It really is a good spot to farm for experience points. Wait, you really are a heartless System without conscience. A disaster is happening and all you can think of is your experience points.” Fang Ning was very speechless.

“Of course I am. I don’t even have a heart, so of course I don’t have a conscience.” The System said confidently.

Fang Ning was not in the mood to talk nonsense, so he spoke to Anderson instead, “Is there any way to restrain these poisonous insects?”

Anderson immediately replied, “Some Buddhist spiritual masters in the Upper Realm with true compassion and mercy should have developed a technique in response to this. I believe the Bodhisattva Spirit King should have one.”

Fang Ning nodded, took out his phone, and started to send a WeChat message…

Yes, he had long since added the Bodhisattva Spirit King as a Wechat friend.

Before long, he received a reply.

“The solution lies with Chong Daqing.”

Fang Ning felt gloomy after reading the message on his phone. ‘This Bodhisattva really knew how to stimulate the mind by using teachings. Can’t he just speak normally?

‘Or does he have some other scruples?’

Fang Ning could only raise his head to look at Chong Daqing.

It was currently hiding on the black dog’s head. It held a clump of dog fur while secretly peeking at the unconscious young man, as if it could not believe that there was such a terrifying insect dwelling in its body.

Fang Ning walked over and said kindly, “Miss Daqing, I have a request.”

“Oh, what do you need? I’m telling you first. If you want me to do something, you’ll have to pay.” Chong Daqing said matter-of-factly.

“Ah, as expected, someone who stays near vermillion will be stained red. Don’t worry, I’ll pay you.” Fang Ning assured it before saying, “The Bodhisattva said you have the solution to the poison.”

“Huh, why didn’t I know that?” Chong Daqing’s face was full of wonder.

The others stared at it with intense eyes.

The yellow dog Xue Ba suddenly said, “I heard that Miss Daqing is the head of the Spiritual Insects, so you should be the King of Insects as well. Maybe you can order those poisonous insects?”

“Oh, that sounds plausible.” Everyone began to comment.

“Oh right, we all forgot that Miss Daqing is actually a queen…” Someone said thoughtfully.

“Ah, I’m not any ‘queen’. Hm, but that doesn’t sound bad. Why isn’t anyone paying tribute to me then?” Daqing scratched its head with a forelimb, feeling puzzled.

“Uh, go ask the Bodhisattva about that. Now, Miss Daqing, please show your Celestial Aura and order these insects to obediently leave this person’s body.” Fang Ning hurriedly said.

“Alright, I’ll try.” Under the focus of the public’s eyes, Chong Daqing put aside its previous fear and emerged from the black dog’s head, and flew to the center of the site.

It crossed its legs and barked below, “You little poisonous insects, hurry up and get out here!”

‘Regardless of whether the problem was solved or not, the speed in which it enters its role really is quick.’ Fang Ning secretly thought.

The crowd watched closely, but did not see any movement on the young man’s body.

“How dare you disobey my orders. I’ll, I’ll, I’ll scare you to death!” Chong Daqing stammered out a few words. Then, its body trembled and a pink kingly aura suddenly appeared and pressed down.

All the people looked horrified. They had already sensed the strength of this aura. It was most likely beyond the peak of Lake-level, in fact, it had the atmosphere of a large ocean.

They never thought that this Chong Daqing who never revealed its talent would actually improve so quickly.

Although they could all sense it, after the mooncake appeared, the concentration of Vitality on Earth had further increased rapidly. Furthermore, the difficulty of breaking through the bottleneck had also decreased a lot.

Pond-level masters had formed a large crowd and Lake-level powerhouses have also begun to emerge one after another. Only Inland-Sea level supremacy was rare.

At least, no Earthlings have cultivated to this level. All of them were people from the Upper Realm.
