    Boom

    Chi Hong stood at the edge of the cliff, coolly watching the dense swarm of poison bugs below, his face radiating with satisfaction.

    The sudden commotion startled him, causing him to involuntarily pause and his face immediately assumed a more serious expression.

    "What is this…"

    "It's the scent of poison bugs, strong poison bugs. What's going on here? Has Chen Yue... does she still have a last card up her sleeve?"

    Chi Hong's face turned cold as he suddenly realized this. No longer at ease, he immediately leaped down from the cliff.

    "Ha ha. Come, come, the more of you that come, the happier I am. This way, my life essence worm can feast to its heart's content."

    The small bean by the cliff was excitedly shouting.

    With the wave of insects surging, Xiao Dou Ding was not at all panicked, but instead became more and more proud. She charged into the dense swarm of poison bugs, as if becoming one with them.

    By all accounts, being enveloped by so many poison bugs would surely cause injuries, but now, she not only had no injuries at all, but she grew more brave with every battle.

    More and more insects were dying in front of her, either being devoured by her two life essence worms or being consumed by Chen Mo's big and small treasures.

    Originally, Chen Mo was worried that Little Bean would run into trouble if she kept fighting like this. But seeing the other party's appearance, his worry seemed to be unnecessary.

    As Little Bean grew bolder with each battle, a figure suddenly descended from the sky—it was Chi Hong.

    "Chen Yue, you..."

    Looking at the chaos spread across the ground, Chi Hong's heart was bleeding madly. All of those poison bugs were carefully cultivated by him over time and claimed as his own with his own flesh and blood. Yet now, they were being slaughtered like ants by Little Bean, causing him immense pain.

    "Rascal! How could you still have poison bugs?"

    Chi Hong's face changed drastically. He tried to control the two life essence worms on Little Bean's body, but they showed no response.

    He took a closer look at the two life essence worms on Little Bean's arm, which he had never seen before.

    "Haha, Chi Hong, do you even have the face to say that you know all of me? Well, did you know that I have three life essence worms?"

    As she spoke, Little Bean proudly showed off the two life essence worms on her hand.

    "This is the Qing Niu worm, have you seen it? This is the Bu Ming Bee, have you seen it as well?"

    "Chen Yue, you've indeed surprised me. I didn't expect you to have such a hidden card up your sleeve. But do you think that just by having this, you can escape unscathed? If so, you underestimate me."

    Chi Hong's face turned serious, followed by a sudden movement. In an instant, the numerous insects rushed towards him.

    Little Bean has powerful life essence worms, Chi Hong also has his own life essence worms, and at the same time, his life essence worm is not inferior to Little Bean's.

    Chi Hong's hands were gently spread open, and suddenly, cracks appeared on the palms of his hands, as if they had opened into mouths.

    In the next moment, a colorful butterfly appeared, followed by a deep brown centipede.

    This is Chi Hong's life essence worm, recruitment soul butterfly, thousand blade centipede.

    "Come."

    "Go."

    Chi Hong spoke out two characters calmly, and in an instant, both the butterfly and the centipede moved. The butterfly fluttered its colorful wings, and in a blink of an eye, Chen Mo and Little Bean lost their senses as if their souls were taken, moving towards Chi Hong's direction without control.

    Afterward, the centipede's hundred legs moved simultaneously, and a series of blade-like attacks flew towards the two of them.

    Ding, ding, ding.

    Little Bean walked in front, and the blade-like attacks first fell on her, but it could not hurt her at all. Instead, it somewhat cleared her consciousness.

    Little Bean darted forward with a swift step, and just in time, she used her own body to block the attack that was about to injure Chen Mo.

    Chen Mo's consciousness also returned at that moment. He looked at Little Bean, who had blocked the attack for him, and asked with concern, "Are you okay?"

    "Brother, I'm fine. My other life essence worm is called the Bu Ming Bee. With it, I can be immortal and indestructible. These attacks won't harm me."

    Little Bean smiled, indicating to Chen Mo not to worry about her.

    "Hahaha, I truly did not expect this. Chen Yue, your life essence worm has such abilities. But do you think it can withstand so many attacks? I don't believe there are any life essence worms in the world that can be immortal and indestructible. Not even the most sacred ones can do so."

    Chi Hong sneered coldly, and the butterfly flying in the air flapped its wings again, attempting to control the two once more.

    Snap!

    At that moment, Chen Mo's hand landed on Little Bean's shoulder. With a curious gaze, Chen Mo remained silent.

    But Chi Hong suddenly froze. Why? Chen Mo and Little Bean showed no reaction, shouldn't they have lost their senses?

    Chen Mo tightly held the piece of Tianji original stone in his hand, "If you want to control our minds, you should also see if your life essence worm has that ability."

    With the Tianji original stone, Chen Mo's willpower became several times more determined. Furthermore, it affected Little Bean beside him, allowing her to also resist the influence.

    "Damn, how did you do it?"

    Chi Hong bit his teeth, his face turning even colder, "Since I can't control your minds, then I'll kill you directly."

    As he spoke, Chi Hong summoned his thousand-blade centipede and began to move it.

    Seeing this, Little Bean quickly stepped forward and delivered a heavy punch. Strong gale winds swept around, and in an instant, the butterfly flying in the air was hit and fell to the ground. Its wings were gone, leaving only its mangled body struggling painfully on the ground.

    "Puff."

    Chi Hong's lips spat out blood mist, and his face looked paler.

    Unlike ordinary poison bugs, life essence worms are bound to the worm master through soul ties. Any damage to the life essence worm will affect the worm master's body and soul.

    "Dammit, Chen Yue, you..."

    Chi Hong's face twisted in agony, and in the middle of his outcry, his expression changed abruptly from anger to fear.

    Little Bean has three life essence worms. Besides the two in front of her, there is another one, which was the bug she swallowed earlier and tried to attack her.

    However, after the bug was swallowed by her, Little Bean did not suffer any retaliation...

    Little Bean smiled and looked directly at Chi Hong, "It seems that you've also discovered that my life essence worm doesn't have the concept of death."

    "How, how can this be..."

    Chi Hong stepped back in terror, "Impossible, impossible. I clearly swallowed your life essence worm; it can't still be alive."

    "You also know that it's my life essence worm. How could it die so easily?"

    "Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you. My life essence worm Xiaohong has another name, which is called the 'Blood Yin Worm'"

    "It can hide in the human body, waiting for an opportunity to move and completely devour a person's flesh and blood without them knowing it."

    "Because of its difficult-to-use ability, I usually don't use it. But today, it seems you've accidentally hit the right spot."

    As Little Bean was speaking, Chi Hong's body suddenly stiffened, and he felt an intense pain. He raised his hands abruptly and saw that the flesh on his hands was slowly dissipating.

    Then it was his legs, and then his body, until his arms, legs, and body were completely turned into white bones.

    "No, no, I can't die, I can't die."

    With only a head left, Chi Hong's face turned extremely pale, looking like he was on the brink of death.

    At this moment, his life essence worm and the numerous insects beneath the cliff were rapidly rushing towards his body, trying to revive him.

    "Can it still live?"
