My Gu Can Cultivate on Their Own Chapter 20

He had finally reached rank six.

With six times the strength, Fang Yuan's physique had already surpassed most Foundation Establishment Stage Gu masters.

Moreover, he had the Drunken Gu, which produced more than a hundred milliliters a day, and his physique was constantly increasing.

Fang Yuan had the Bloodthirsty Gu continue to devour the raging flame bear's flesh and blood.

Unsurprisingly, he once again obtained the Raging Flame Rod Technique ability.

“It seems that as long as it is an elemental type demon beast, I can obtain a new ability after my Bloodthirsty Gu eats it.”

“Unfortunately, it has this limitation, it can only be used on the rod.”

The surviving members of the caravan started to collect the corpses of their comrades, burying them on the spot.

Yu Bing looked at her comrades who she had eaten with in the morning, but had now turned into an ice-cold corpse, and she was somewhat depressed.

4

Fang Yuan took this parting of life and death lightly. He shook his head and thought about the question that he had been puzzled about before.

“How can there be two demon beasts with conflicting attributes at such close proximity?”

This was a situation that absolutely went against common sense.

1

Not to mention demon beasts, even ordinary mutated beasts that did not have the ability also had territorial awareness.

The more powerful an existence was, the more serious this kind of awareness was.

Under normal circumstances, demon beasts like the raging flame bear and the frost wolf would be separated as far as possible, and their habitat would not be near the edge of the other's territory.

Because their attributes restrained each other, there was a possibility that they would start fighting over some small friction.

But now, they had appeared in the same place.

And they both attacked them.

This made Fang Yuan suspect that someone controlled these two demon beasts and did this on purpose.

Thinking of this, Fang Yuan seemed to have some ideas and immediately called Yu Bing over.

“Brother, what's wrong?”

“Do me a favor.”

Fang Yuan pointed at the two demon beast corpses that had yet to be put away but were already shriveled to the point of being only skin and bones, and said, “Use the Enemy Searching Gu and check their path when they came.”

“Brother, are you afraid that someone used underhanded methods?”

2

Yu Bing immediately thought of his concerns.

Fang Yuan gave her a thumbs up. “You are indeed my sister. As expected of your unparalleled intelligence, innate talent…”

2

“Stop!” Yu Bing covered her ears with both hands, her face slightly red, “Stop praising me, I will go now.”

The Enemy Searching Gu could trace and search for enemies.

Now that the two demon beasts were dead, it could only rely on their scent to determine where they came from.

This was a bit difficult. From time to time, there would be one or two interruptions due to unexpected circumstances, and it was a waste of time and effort.

Even so, Fang Yuan still persisted.

Soon, the scent traces left by the two demon beasts pointed to the same cave.

“There is indeed someone behind this.”

Fang Yuan sneered, “Sister, hide outside, I will be back soon.”

Yu Bing pouted, “What if the person behind the scenes is already watching us? They'll catch me later… Mmm… Mmm…”

Fang Yuan did not hesitate much. He directly covered her mouth and brought her into the cave.

However, it did not take long for them to realize that something was wrong.

The cave was very damp and cold. The deeper they went, the more it became like this.

In the empty environment, other than the sound of water droplets and their footsteps, there was no other sound.

There were no remains of bonfires, no food scraps, not even any traces of cultivation.

Other than some beast feces, there was nothing else.

This did not seem to be a place where anyone had stayed.

Even Yu Bing was not confident. She grabbed her Enemy Searching Gu and patted it. Her pretty face was filled with doubt.

“Are you broken?”

“Squeak Squeak!”

She did not expect the Enemy Searching Gu to sound like a hamster. It was quite a contrast.

Fang Yuan took a glance and suddenly saw a flash of light in the cave.

In just this short moment, his spirit was greatly boosted!

[Hunter Swallowtail Butterfly Gu] (Bronze) : Support type.

It was actually the Hunter Swallowtail Butterfly Gu!

Although he could not see its specific attributes, he had seen a detailed entry of this Gu worm when he browsed through the sect's books.

This was an extremely powerful Gu worm.

The power did not come from it's physical strength, but its ability!

One must not be fooled by its beautiful and exquisite appearance.

In fact, it could use its innate ability to control demon beasts that were even higher in level than it!

Just like controlling a marionette, it could directly control demon beasts!

This ability was a little similar to that of an in-game beast master, but its strong point was that it could completely control it without any restrictions like intimacy, so there was no need to worry about demon beasts betraying it!

For such a Gu worm, it would not be an exaggeration to say it was Silver rank!

“I really did not expect there to be so many opportunities on this trip down the mountain.”

Fang Yuan was unusually excited, pulling Yu Bing as he quickly approached it.

Soon, the Hunter Swallowtail Butterfly Gu appeared in his eyes.

Yu Bing was immediately attracted by its beautiful appearance.

She could not help but walk forward.

Fang Yuan lightly frowned, shouting, “Wake up!”

Yu Bing was stunned, and her beautiful eyes regained their luster, but she was still confused, “What… What is happening to me…”

2

“You are being controlled by it.”

“Ah?”

Yu Bing was shocked, “What Gu worm is this?”

“This is called Hunter Swallowtail Butterfly Gu, it can easily control a demon beast that is a few levels higher than itself.”

“Control a demon beast? Then why is it controlling me…”

“People with weak wills will also be affected.”

“…”

Yu Bing's pretty face turned slightly red. She only thought that the Hunter Swallowtail Butterfly Gu was very beautiful and wanted to take a closer look, but she did not expect herself to be controlled unknowingly.

Fang Yuan looked at the Hunter Swallowtail Butterfly Gu flying freely in the cave, his hands behind his back as he looked at it proudly.

“I know you can understand human language. Come, now you have two choices in front of you, choose me or choose my sister.”

“I don't want it!”

Hearing this, Yu Bing shook her head like a rattle drum, “I am about to go bankrupt raising these four, I cannot afford to raise a fifth.”

Fang Yuan laughed lightly, “It's fine, let it choose, this Gu worm is different.”

“Hmm?”

Yu Bing was puzzled, but Fang Yuan did not continue to explain. She was so depressed that she could not help puffing her cheeks.

1

Soon after, she saw the Hunter Swallowtail Butterfly Gu floating back and forth on the three pillars, finally landing on the third pillar.

Yu Bing looked at Fang Yuan, blinking her eyes as she asked: “Brother, what does it mean?”

“It means it wants to die.”

2

Fang Yuan's expression turned dark, the worm rod landed on his back as a flash of fire appeared. “I have not tasted butterflies yet, perhaps my Bloodthirsty Gu will be happy to help me try it.”

2

The Hunter Swallowtail Butterfly Gu shuddered, it quickly flapped its wings and flew to the first pillar.

That was Fang Yuan's position.

“Very good, you know your place.”

Fang Yuan kept his rod and raised his hand, watching the Hunter Swallowtail Butterfly Gu fly into his palm.

Looking at it up close, Yu Bing was attracted by its exquisite wing patterns, and her eyes unconsciously showed an infatuated expression.

Who knew that the Phoenix Butterfly Gu would fly up again and enter Fang Yuan's acupoints.

“Sigh, why did it run away…” Yu Bing said regretfully.

Fang Yuan scratched his head, “Maybe… you scared it?”

“….”
