Eternal Life: My Lifespan Increases Daily

Chapter 638: Chapter 427: Eight-eyed White Worm, Magic Technique Success Rate! (Double-length Chapter)

The captain was already deeply impressed by Song Changming’s personal prowess.

No matter how strong the Water Demon was, Song Changming caught them as easily as catching ordinary shrimp and crabs from the river.

The key point was that Song Changming was still so young, looking to be just over twenty, barely an adult.

He was a native of Lei City and had just assumed the position of Lei City Captain not long ago. With limited information channels, he hadn’t actually heard much about the Grand Marshal of the Nineteenth Army before.

That’s why he was so amazed by the power Song Changming displayed at the moment.

”You?” Song Changming suddenly looked over, making the captain inexplicably nervous, as if he were being stared at by a giant beast.

”I am Lei City Captain Du Wei, I see, I’ve seen the Grand Marshal!” the captain hastily clasped his hands in a salute.

Song Changming nodded. It was just that this person seemed unfamiliar to him, not one of his men, which was why he asked.

Not far away, the wails of Water Demons arose one after another, as if they were being tortured.

About an hour later, Xiao Peibai returned, bringing with him the results of the severe interrogation.

The army had its own methods for interrogating the Demon Race, summarizing years of experience in combating the Demon Race.

Not many from the Demon Race could withstand their interrogation.

Evidently, these Water Demons were not among the few who could withstand it, soon confessing everything.

”You say this water insect came from Baitian Temple?” Song Changming’s gaze fell on the giant insect lying on the ground in the distance, its body fluid oozing.

The insect’s body was blue, round and plump, with bristles on its body and four eyes on its head.

This was the powerful Water Demon that had just stirred up the waterspout.

It turned out this demon was connected to the Baitian Temple of the Alchemy Taoist!

After all these years, Song Changming was once again linked to the Baitian Temple and Master Baitian.

Of course, it wasn’t entirely a coincidence.

After all, the Thirty Six Grotto Heavens of Nanzhou was near the border of Yun Province, adjacent to Cui Bai Dao where he resided.

Every year, quite a few demons from the Thirty Six Grotto Heavens of Nanzhou would come to cause trouble in Cui Bai Dao.

Song Changming had dealt with many demons from there, but this time he encountered the Baitian Temple’s demons from the Thirty Six Grotto Heavens.

”Strictly speaking, this insect demon does not belong to Baitian Temple. It is a mixed-blood demon of the Eight-eyed White Worm Race, and Master Baitian of Baitian Temple is of half-human, half-demon blood lineage. The demon blood part is also from the Eight-eyed White Worm Race.

Therefore, it was Master Baitian who used this bloodline connection to find this insect demon, specifically to capture people for him...” Xiao Peibai explained the connections one by one.

As for the other Water Demons, they were just shrimp soldiers and crab generals under the command of this insect demon.

A few months ago, it brought the demon crowd here to the river for capturing people, as orchestrated by Master Baitian behind the scenes.

After listening to Xiao Peibai, Song Changming approached the massive, thick insect body.

”Don’t kill me, I’ve surrendered! I’ve surrendered!” The insect demon squirmed, fearing Song Changming’s approach.

It was completely intimidated by Song Changming’s formidable power, no longer as arrogant as before.

”The Eight-eyed White Worm Race is a prestigious clan of great demons from Yuan Province, reputed to possess the bloodline of the Ancient Insect Race, with demon power said to reach the heavens and shake all ages. Why are you so timid and cowardly despite having this bloodline?” Song Changming said with a sneer.

Due to his life-and-death grudges with Master Baitian, he had already thoroughly investigated the intelligence about the Eight-eyed White Worm Race.

It must be said that this insect bloodline indeed had a glorious history in the past.

Even now, although the Eight-eyed White Worm Race has somewhat declined, it is still one of the top great clans in the Yuanzhou Demon Realm.

Even across the entire Nine Provinces Demon Realm, the name Eight-eyed White Worm is a well-known presence!

With a strong background and solid foundation, the half-blood lineage of the White-haired Worm is also what Master Baitian has always relied on!

”Yes, indeed, I possess the bloodline of the Eight-eyed White Worm. If you kill me, all the other white worms of the same clan will sense it, and you won’t be able to escape. You should think it over carefully!”

The insect suddenly threatened with a show of bravado.

Upon hearing this, Song Changming lifted a finger, and a bolt of thunder light shot out from his fingertip, piercing through the insect body instantly.

Then Song Changming’s finger lightly raised, and the thunder light seemed like a several hundred meters long light sword, slicing through the insect body like cutting tofu, splitting it in half.

The insect immediately felt immense pain, its life force rapidly declining.

”Painful, agonizing, I was wrong, spare me, spare me!” The insect wailed again, not caring about its image at all.

It realized that Song Changming had no fear of the threat from the Eight-eyed White Worm Race.

In reality, its threat didn’t exist at all.

It did have the blood of the Eight-eyed White Worm Race, but that only accounted for a very small part of its demon blood.

In its 100% demon bloodline, it probably didn’t even make up 10%.

Therefore, its death wouldn’t truly matter to that group of Eight-eyed White Worms, nor would they have any so-called sensing of its demise.

After all, throughout the years in the demon realm, demon tribes with mixed blood from the White-haired Worm Race weren’t too few.

If they had to worry about the life and death of any random mixed-blood insect, they’d be overwhelmed.

In comparison, the person from Baitian Temple, Master Baitian, was different.

He is half-human, half-demon, with the blood of the Eight-eyed White Worm Race making up most of his lineage.

So, he might indeed be considered a clan member by the Eight-eyed White Worms, requiring more careful consideration.

”Do you want to live?” Song Changming asked, as the electric sparks on his fingertips had not yet dissipated, looking at the water insect before him.

”Yes! Yes!” The insect demon responded repeatedly.

”As long as you spare me, I’ll do anything.”
