Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension

The silkworm chamber is not big, with the roof, floor, and surrounding walls all constructed of Blue Steel Rock. The entire room is arranged with multiple sealing formations to prevent the Devouring Immortal Silkworm from escaping.

At the center of the silkworm chamber, there is a waist-high dark cyan vat, from which a rustling sound emanates.

Zhao Sheng walked in and saw seven black silkworms the length of a human finger, plump and round, lying on a Moon Rabbit's corpse, ravenously devouring it.

Visible to the naked eye, the Moon Rabbit's corpse was left with pale bones, and the flesh was swiftly consumed.

Zhao Sheng nodded in satisfaction at the scene, but his daughter let out a scream of fear, burying her head into her father's embrace, not daring to glance again.

Zhao Sheng patted his daughter's back, smiling wryly. He hadn't expected her to be so timid.

Originally, he had intended to hand over one Devouring Immortal Silkworm to his daughter for her to raise personally, but now it seems that plan has utterly failed.

Seeing this, Zhao Sheng could only take one young silkworm and then led his daughter out of the silkworm chamber.

Thirty minutes later, in a cultivation room of the Hidden Dragon Pavilion.

Zhao Sheng sat cross-legged on a Jade Mat, casually placing a golden bowl on the floor before him, then slightly shaking his right hand.

With a gentle ding, a small piece of dark gold meat fell into the golden bowl.

The piece of meat was the size of a grain of rice, and though its original owner had died many years ago, it was still fresh as ever and emitted a faint fragrance.

Zhao Sheng took off the silkworm bag, opened the bag's mouth, and released the Devouring Immortal Silkworm.

This plump black silkworm seemingly smelled an exquisite delicacy as soon as it emerged, its body arched high instantly and then catapulted out, moving as fast as a black bolt of lightning.

Even with Zhao Sheng's extraordinary eye power, he could only barely see a trace of black light flashing briefly.

After swallowing the gold skin, the Devouring Immortal Silkworm suddenly twisted violently, starting to crazily move and crash inside the golden bowl.

At a glance, it looked like black electric light flickered indistinctly within the bowl, accompanied by a continuous buzzing sound.

Zhao Sheng watched the events in the golden bowl with a serious expression, not interfering.

After about an hour, the Devouring Immortal Silkworm's speed greatly reduced, becoming listless, as if its excitement period had ended.

But at this moment, its size had nearly doubled, growing to the length of a palm, with its waist diameter reaching two fingers wide.

Hiss!

Just as Zhao Sheng was about to retrieve this large silkworm, it suddenly began to spin silk, rapidly spewing large amounts of black-and-white silk as it started to cocoon.

In just a moment, a black-and-white cocoon the size of a fist appeared before him.

Zhao Sheng showed a pensive look, carefully putting the cocoon into the silkworm bag.

To be cautious, he put in seven or eight Moon Rabbit corpses, including one that was a Second Order Moon Rabbit King.

Before this, Zhao Sheng had not anticipated that the flesh of a Returning to Void Realm Demi Immortal would have such a powerful effect.

The Devouring Immortal Silkworm had actually cocooned!

Could it possibly "transform from a chrysalis into a butterfly" in the future?

Yet, when he combed through the ancient books in his clan and all the information he gathered in Returning City, there was no mention of the Devouring Immortal Silkworm undergoing such metamorphosis.

In contrast, the notion of cocooning seemed quite credible!

Indeed, the Devouring Immortal Silkworm does cocoon, and it can cocoon multiple times in its lifetime.

Every time it emerges from a cocoon, it signifies a successful evolution.

While recalling certain rumors about the Devouring Immortal Silkworm, Zhao Sheng thoughtfully walked out of the cultivation room.

Days later, those in power within the Chen Family finally relented to Zhao Sheng, reluctantly accepting Chen Mingzhi's "choice."

As an old father, Zhao Sheng was thoroughly concerned for his daughter.

For the sake of her path, he personally prepared a "generous gift," hoping to apprentice her under the family's Alchemy Master, Chen Dali.

Chen Dali gladly agreed, after all, the gift was too tempting.

A single copy of "Elixir Path Introduction" alone was enough to make this Alchemy Master drool with excitement!

Zhao Sheng was an Alchemy Grandmaster in his previous life, and the "Elixir Path Introduction" he personally penned is invaluable to an alchemist.

If he didn't need to "hide" his strength, there wouldn't be a mere Alchemy Master teaching his precious daughter.

Even so, Zhao Sheng already planned to give his daughter a "rare opportunity."

Surely, an Alchemy Master's legacy estate would be considered a rare opportunity.

As for the "Great Sun Burning Heaven Art," Golden Crow True Fire, Magical Pill Furnace, master inheritance... all sorts of opportunities would naturally be fully prepared.

Of course, it's too early to mention all this!

When his daughter turns eighteen, Zhao Sheng will secretly arrange for her to receive this "gift from her old father."

...

As autumn goes and winter comes, another year has come to an end.

Late at night, Zhao Sheng woke up from his bed, beside him a jade-like, alluring body.

He did not disturb Chen Qi'er, silently floated up, dressed, and quietly left.

Soon after, he appeared in the cultivation room, activating the surrounding barrier restrictions.

After preparing, Zhao Sheng sat down on the ground, his Divine Sense entering the Sumeru Space.

Suddenly, his face showed a bit of shock, discovering that the Sumeru Space had expanded, at least "one circle" larger than before.

"...the space lengthened by at least a foot, and the space volume increased by about the size of a room... as suspected, my hypothesis was correct!" Zhao Sheng thought to himself, eyes shining with a strange light.

Initially, he had once hypothesized that the items within the Space Immortal Heaven seemed to contain more or less the Power of Space-Time.
