1080: Chapter 1024: Life-steal Golden Cicada, Mysteriously Void Time Insect, Supreme Powerhouse 1080: Chapter 1024: Life-steal Golden Cicada, Mysteriously Void Time Insect, Supreme Powerhouse “Breaking Barrier—”

Lv Zhong gave a slight chant, and all of a sudden, from the brow of the Soul Merit Golden Body in his Sea of Consciousness, a mysterious light of Heavenly Dao projected onto the box that resembled but wasn’t quite wood.

Breaking Barrier!

Forcefully tearing through formations and restrictions to permeate into the world within those formations and restrictions.

When cultivated to profound levels, this [Realm Breaking Power] could allow Lv Zhong to freely traverse All Heavens and Myriad Realms.

Moreover, provided his realm was sufficient, it wasn’t impossible for his actual body to traverse to realms above the Immortal World such as the [Sacred God Realm].

However, to reach that stage, Lv Zhong’s [Eye of Heaven’s Dao] must at least evolve into the [Eye of the Great Path].

“Hum…”

A sound like the ringing of morning bells and evening drums emanated from the Mysterious Box, directly shaking Lv Zhong’s soul.

Lv Zhong immediately felt the Seven Tiers Golden Lotus within him tremble frantically, hastily emitting endless Merit Golden Light to counter this strange sound.

Subsequently, the Green Lotus Flower Crown nearly shattered in an instant.

Luckily, the [Twelve Grade Azure Lotus] that Lv Zhong had transplanted into the core space of the [Great Annihilation Pearl] was not affected.

Sensing the Green Lotus Flower Crown, which aided Lv Zhong in suppressing his destiny, was about to shatter, it promptly projected a streak of mysterious green energy from within the [Great Annihilation Pearl] into Lv Zhong’s Sea of Consciousness, fusing with the prior Green Lotus Flower Crown.

Instantly, the entire Green Lotus Flower Crown solidified further, almost as though it became a living thing.

The now stronger [Green Lotus Flower Crown], combined with the Merit Golden Light emitted by the Seven Tiers Golden Lotus, forcefully annihilated nearly seventy-five percent of the energy.

The remaining twenty-five percent was directly devoured by the giant insect projection of the Insect Clan Crown.

Miraculous!

At this moment, Lv Zhong discovered that the Insect Clan Crown within his Sea of Consciousness, after devouring this twenty-five percent of energy, seemed quite at ease, even showing signs of excitement.

“This…”

Lv Zhong felt both astonished and delighted in his heart, and once again activated the [Eye of Heaven’s Dao], “Realm Breaking Power—”

Another extremely powerful light of Heavenly Dao landed on the symbols of the Mysterious Box in front of him.

“Boom…”

The box’s symbols gathered mysterious energy and once again struck back at Lv Zhong’s Sea of Consciousness.

At this time, Lv Zhong decisively ordered the Seven Tiers Golden Lotus and Green Lotus Flower Crown within his Sea of Consciousness to retreat, bringing the Insect Clan Crown, poised right in front of his Soul Merit Golden Body, to the front line.

“Sizzle…”

The Insect Clan Crown seemed to also sense this invasion of energy, not alarmed but delighted, transforming once again into a giant insect, devouring the mysterious energy like a whale consuming water.

“Rumbling…”

Suddenly, the mysterious symbols on the wood box trembled wildly, abruptly firing an extremely bright burst of white radiance, targeting Lv Zhong’s brow.

The giant insect projection in Lv Zhong’s Sea of Consciousness roared into action, receiving this endless power of the symbols without reservation.

After all the floating iridescent light was completely digested by the giant shadow, it seemed still unfulfilled, continually traversing and leaping in Lv Zhong’s Sea of Consciousness as if this mysterious symbol power was a real delicacy, indulging it endlessly.

At this moment, Lv Zhong couldn’t care about the shadow of the Insect Clan in his Sea of Consciousness anymore.

His eyes wide open—

“Snap…” With a soft sound, The Box finally opened!

Lv Zhong looked intently and saw a pearl the size of a glass ball, emanating a very gentle glow, illuminating the somewhat dim core space of the Great Annihilation Pearl.

“What…

what is this?” Lv Zhong stared and to his surprise found that it was not a pearl, but rather an egg from some unknown creature!

And inside the egg, there was another egg!

Because if one looked carefully, one could see several live embryos inside.

Moreover, they contained extremely terrifying vitality.

“Huff…”

Just then, the shadow of the Insect Clan inside Lv Zhong’s Sea of Consciousness suddenly transmitted a mysterious stream of information to his Soul Merit Golden Body.

“Life-steal Golden Cicada!

A super Alien Insect born from the long-extinct Insect Clan civilization.

Capable of stealing the lifespan of countless creatures for its own use.

It is a true unparalleled demon, mastering only two supreme techniques!

One is to crazily absorb the lifespan of other beings; the second is to burn lifespan to convert into a self-destructive attack ‘Traceless Years.’ It’s a move that kills a thousand enemies at the cost of self-harm of eight hundred.

However, the Life-steal Golden Cicada, which can steal the lifespan from others, never fears this mutually assured destruction move.

Instead, it uses it frequently, earning itself the supreme title of ‘Time Assassin.’ But as it gained lifespan theft, so did it fall.

Because it could steal lifespan, it was truly an insect of eternal life.

Therefore, numerous mighty cultivators coveted this trait, and so the Life-steal Golden Cicada fell into decline…”

Life-steal Golden Cicada?

The self-destructive ‘Traceless Years’?

Capable of instantly burning the lifespan of both enemies and itself?

And yet an insect of eternal life with no end?

Even through cycles of Samsara, they barely managed to persist without dying, although with each cycle, their strength would diminish slightly…

Lv Zhong was momentarily stunned; he suddenly recalled that Monk Tang, who became famous through Journey to the West before becoming a disciple of the Buddha, seemed to be a golden cicada child.

“Could it be that Monk Tang was also a Life-steal Golden Cicada?” Lv Zhong’s heart skipped a beat, and he involuntarily got goosebumps.

Legend has it, before reincarnating as Monk Tang, the golden cicada child had undergone nine cycles of Samsara, ultimately being eaten by Sha Monk in the Flowing Sands River.

But really, was it Sha Monk who ate the nine-times reincarnated golden cicada child?

Perhaps not!

Otherwise, in Journey to the West, could Sha Monk really resist the temptation in his heart, not eating Monk Tang again?

During the journey to the West, could Sha Monk have been so meek?

Could a creature that eats humans really be tamed so docilely by just a few words from Guanyin?

Thinking of the experiences of Bai Suzhen and Teng Qing (Xiao Qing), Lv Zhong suddenly felt that the road to the West undertaken in the story of Journey to the West was perhaps also a tremendous scheme laid out by various powers.

“Heh, for the great flourish of Buddha’s Door, they truly are ‘far-sighted’ and scruple at no means…” Lv Zhong sneered, his gaze returned to the [Life-steal Golden Cicada].

Following the information transmitted by the giant insect shadow in his Sea of Consciousness, Lv Zhong knew that this [Life-steal Golden Cicada] was truly an extremely powerful Alien Insect.

Even if it reincarnated into something else, the bloodline of the Life-steal Golden Cicada within it wouldn’t change completely, at most it would be constantly weakened.

Such a power of bloodline inheritance was indeed very strong.

However, having deciphered this mode of bloodline inheritance, in the future, whatever form Lv Zhong’s descendants reincarnated into, they would be able to find their roots…

Temporarily sealing the egg that contained many a [Life-steal Golden Cicada] with restrictive seals on the [Chaos Spring Wood], Lv Zhong then imitated the process to strike at another treasure box, neither like gold nor jade, along with two metal nameplates.

Only after the [Giant Insect Shadow] in the Sea of Consciousness had fully absorbed the hidden strength of the symbols on the remaining three treasures did it contentedly revert to the [Insect Tribe’s Crown] and stayed in Lv Zhong’s Sea of Consciousness.

But receiving the feedback from it, Lv Zhong was plunged into a frenzy of ecstasy.

Inside that treasure box, neither like gold nor jade, another extraordinary insect was sealed.

This insect was also a top-tier Alien Insect from the ancient bug civilization era—the Mysteriously Void Time Insect!

This [Profundity Light Shadow Insect], from the era of the ancient bug civilization, was born the supreme King Bug.

They were the thieves of time!

They were the creators of space wormholes!

They could ignore the erosion of time, steal time, and even control time.

As they gradually matured, they would evolve from King Bug to Emperor Insect.

Each Emperor Insect was a supreme being who controlled the Time Law.

It can be said that each [Mysteriously Void Time Insect] Insect Emperor embodied the Time Dao Mark, and also, this Time Path Dao Patterns had to reach Top-grade Peak State.

Even without reaching the top-notch boundaries, possessing Top-grade Peak [Time] Path Dao Marks, even a Sage who proved the Dao through strength might not be able to defeat such a supreme [Mysteriously Void Time Insect]!

Indisputably, in understanding and comprehension of time, the [Mysterious Shade Bug] were far superior to any other species.

…

When the mysterious symbols on the two metal nameplates were decoded, they detailed the peak civilization of the ancient bug era and a cultivation method called [Heart of Time], authored by the strongest Insect King of Mysteriously Void Time Insects.

In the Primordial Era, Innate gods and spirits stood in great numbers; various species that had inherited the strongest bloodline from the Chaos Demon Gods grew and prospered.

At that time, the champions of each species led their people in growth and expansion.

In that era, the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth was extremely concentrated; countless powerhouses fought fiercely over worldly treasures.

Every species became stronger in battle and evolved through combat.

However, in another world, a handful of supreme Insect Gods born out of Chaos began to develop rapidly and discreetly amidst the great wars between the races.

The Insect Clan’s breeding ability was incredibly strong, a fact that far surpassed that of other species.

What was more terrifying was that the Insect Race commonly favored gathering in groups and living in colonies.

When encountering enemies, they preferred swarms to individual combat.

In conflicts with other species for resources and territory, the ferocity demonstrated by the Insect Race Group Army terrified all other species.

However, at this time, the Insect Clan had become a force to be reckoned with, not something that a simple alliance of species could defeat.

Moreover, with the [Profundity Light Shadow Insects] as the sovereigns of the entire insect race, the Insect Clan could predict and act preemptively in every battle.

After more than a dozen major wars, not only had the Insect Clan not been defeated, but instead, the allied forces of many species had suffered heavy losses.

As a result, naturally, it led to the dissolution of the alliance.

And thus began the ancient Insect Clan’s march towards dominating the universe.

However, a disruption to the Insect Clan’s rapid development came during an incident.

A mightily powerful Chaos Demon God intruded into the world of the Insect Clan and stole a treasure that was crucial to the development of the Insect Clan.

As a consequence—

Mysteriously Void Time Insects, Nine Nether Bad Luck Insects, Echo Insects, Holy Light Heaven-burning Butterflies, Dark Silence Black Hole Insects, Unrivaled Tyrant Body Insects, Nine Heavens Shocking Thunder Insects, Lighthouse Longevity Insects, Life-steal Golden Cicadas…

Numerous powerful Insect Gods formed a group and pursued this Chaos Demon God, only to venture into Chaos and enter a vast and mysterious world unwittingly.

In this world, suddenly there were eight abnormally powerful “humans” engaged in intense battle.

To the shock of all the Alien Insects and even that Chaos Demon God, this battle was astonishingly one against seven!

As a result, that dominant overlord, with his dying counterattack, not only killed two of his foes but also severely wounded five others.

And at the moment of this overlord’s demise, a weird look of surprise flashed through his eyes.

Then, he shouted, “Haha, my lineage will not be cut short; one day, my descendants will surely lead billions of Insect Gods into the Sacred God Realm, haha…”

As soon as his voice fell, his eyes burst with an intimidating killing intent.

Suddenly, the Chaos Demon God who had stolen the treasure of the Insect Clan fell directly under this piercing gaze.

And following into this mysterious world, countless top-tier odd insects instantly felt this wisp of murderous intent pierce through countless worlds, not only completely destroying the Insect Clan World but even sealing up numerous insect eggs…

Only the [Mysteriously Void Time Insect] Insect Emperor, relying on its top-grade peak [Time] Great Path Pattern, was able to initiate a bid for escape in the moment before the killing intent in the strongman’s eyes solidified, barely opening a tiny space-time wormhole to leave this mysterious world.

Even so, when it rushed back to the world of the Insect Clan, it was almost on its last breath.

Using its last secret technique, it sealed an egg of the [Mysteriously Void Time Insect] Insect King and left some information for the revival of the Insect Clan before perishing.

Thus, the once-mighty ancient Insect Clan all of a sudden declined.

Countless top-tier Insect God powerhouses disappeared, becoming the greatest mystery of the Primordial Era!
