"Should've thrown you guys into the snake pit for cultivation!" The brawny man once said. When Xu Lan associated these words together with the living things inside the bamboo basket, an absurd idea popped into his mind.

Cultivation of Gu!

He had only seen these things in books and he was shocked by his own postulation. However, the more he thought about it, the more he got more troubled by it.

"Wow, this is magical! I didn't expect to see such fascinating affairs, this is such a fulfilling trip!" Fang Lingzi jumped excitedly. If the businessman did not catch hold of her, she might even fall and roll down the hill.

Before they reached the other side of the mountain, they could hear the panicky screams from Wu Ling yelling, "Grab her! Quick!" All of them rushed over at an instant.

"Blurgh!" Everyone started vomiting uncontrollably when they glimpsed the scene before them. They were so horrified that no one dared to look at the three individuals that were standing in front of the cliff.

No, it should be said that there were two people, because the other one would not be able to be classified as a human. He only took the form of a human, with a body, head and four limbs.

That person was completely naked but there was not a patch of skin on him. He was covered in venomous worms of all kinds, which gave him a pitch black figure. It was as if his skin was devoured by the venomous worms. At times, the shades of white from the bones were visible when the worms crawled over them. Suddenly, a small crimson-red snake plopped out from his eye socket.

The human body was used as a vessel for the cultivation of Gu!

"Argh! Aargh! Aargh!" Fang Lingzi hid behind the businessman and wailed in fear. That was when Wu Ling noticed the group of twenty to thirty people that were standing in front of her.

"Why are you here! Da Hei! Da Hei! Who allowed them to come here!" Wu Ling roared frantically and continued to command the fairer guy to capture the being.

The brawny man was fully prepped and started approaching the Gu being. The venomous worms gradually crawled out like a rising tide and crept onto the guy. Although he wore a thick layer of protective clothing, it was not sufficient to prevent the corrosion from the venom, which he howled in pain.

Wu Ling retrieved a bottle of white powder from her pocket and scattered onto the brawny man. The venomous worms that were creeping onto his body started to fall and dispersed. Even though the brawny man was covered in venomous worms, he still had a deathgrip on the Gu being.

Wu Ling sprinkled the white powder onto the Gu being and a graceful young lady appeared in front of everybody.

"Wu... Wu Ling! You... You used Xiao Ya to cultivate Gu! You... You!" The village chief pointed at Wu Ling and shuddered with rage. He was so angered that he could not breathe properly and fainted. The other members caught hold of him promptly and placed him on the floor.

"You're empathetic to a fault!" Wu Ling ignored the village chief who fainted and ordered the brawny man to put on some clothes for Xiao Ya. She walked toward Xu Lan with the support of her walking stick and asked, "Where's Da Hei?"

"In the house, we tied him up onto the pillar," Xu Lan, who had yet to come to his senses, answered blankly.

"All of you came over?" Wu Ling was boiling with anger and frowned.

Xu Lan nodded his head.

All of a sudden, Wu Ling tore off Xiao Ya's clothes with a rip. Then, she pushed her toward Xu Lan and sprinkled the white powder onto herself and the brawny man at the same time.

The cute, lovely Xiao Ya immediately transformed into a giant vessel that was full of Gu worms. The venomous worms that were subdued just moments ago covered the whole body of Xiao Ya and started creeping toward Xu Lan and the others.

"Run! Run faster!" The crew-cut guy yelled in terror while he turned around and started sprinting. Suddenly, there was a rumbling noise. A stone wall rose from the ground and blocked them from retreating.

"Run? Enjoy the caress from my dear darling baby! Hahaha..." Wu Ling laughed atrociously while looking at the hopeless bunch.
