Chapter 1053: Chapter 1041: Disgusting Ghost King
Song Yun suddenly took the Golden Cicada seriously, though it was merely just taking it seriously, not to the extent of being afraid. After all, a Golden Cicada isn’t like that mythical thing where eating it would turn your underwear on the outside and make you Superman, or immediately conjure up a Sacred Armor and become a Saint. It’s probably just that this Golden Cicada underwent some mutation and was then placed in an environment filled with toxins for raising, ultimately looking as impressive as it does now.
Actually, many things can be explained scientifically, like why the scorpion before could make Ghost King’s arm swell. It’s simply because while feeding the scorpion, certain chemical additives were mixed in, which the scorpion then transformed into a toxin that causes muscle hardening. This is akin to biological pharmaceutics; only biological pharmaceutics has grown into a relatively mature discipline, whereas Gu Technique remains a so-called secret in the Ten Thousand Hills, hence unknown to the outside world, leading to much weird speculation.
Ghost King held the Golden Cicada and pressed it on his arm.
Unexpectedly, a golden yellow substance appeared from the Golden Cicada’s stomach, looking somewhat disgusting.
Of course, this is just a refined way of speaking; crudely speaking, the Ghost King pressed the Golden Cicada so hard that it practically pooped.
Then this golden substance was remarkably pressed out to about the size of a fingernail by the Ghost King.
"What’s he planning to do?" Song Yun asked looking at Ghost King, not considering attacking at this moment.
Then Song Yun witnessed an astonishing scene.
The Ghost King actually took that poop which he pressed out of the Golden Cicada’s belly and directly put it into his mouth.
"Holy shit, that’s eating bug poop!" Song Yun felt his stomach churn, having seen perverted acts before, but nothing as perverse as this.
Many people eat bugs, raw cicadas, maggots, and such, but squeezing poop from bug intestines and eating it directly — Song Yun truly thought nothing could be more disgusting than this.
But after the Ghost King ate this poop, he seemingly obtained the power of Hercules, his whole face suddenly turning golden!
Of course, it’s just a semblance of gold, not that he transformed entirely into gold.
However, this sudden discoloration of his skin did astonish Song Yun; an ordinary yellow-skinned person turning into a golden human, this... this utterly defies natural laws.
Yet this golden hue came quickly and went quickly, Ghost King’s complexion soon returned to normal, making him appear suddenly more energized to Song Yun!
Yes, energized!
Song Yun could clearly feel that Ghost King’s eyes were brighter, his aura stronger, his skin better, his brains sharper, and even the freckles on his face disappeared!
"What happened now!" At this moment, the curiosity in Song Yun’s heart had far exceeded his desire to go to a death struggle with Ghost King.
"Not stopping my evolution is the greatest mistake you’ve ever made in this life, and you don’t have a chance to correct it." Ghost King said grinning, opening his mouth wide to let the Golden Cicada enter.
"Holy shit, so evolution is eating bug poop? This evolution truly defies my expectations!" Song Yun remarked.
"Seems like you don’t understand the mystery of my clan’s sacred object!" Ghost King scoffed, "What I just consumed is the essence that my clan’s Golden Cicada sacred object generates from devouring various precious medicinal herbs and rare toxins!"
"Alright, poop is essence, I’m convinced!" Song Yun said.
"Next, it’s time to witness miracles!" Ghost King twisted his hands, feet, and neck, then extended a hand toward Song Yun with a taunting gesture, saying, "Come on, let me show you what real Gu poison is!"
"Tch." Song Yun didn’t rashly charge ahead; the opponent had the upper hand now, if one rashly charges ahead, they might very well fall into a trap, and being beckoned by the enemy and actually obliging would be a disgrace.
Song Yun always despised those who went up just because someone beckoned them.
An expert ought to maintain the demeanor of an expert; when they signal you up, you deliberately refrain! Try to let them hit you!
Seeing Song Yun standing still, Ghost King said scornfully, "What, are you afraid?"
"Tch, why would I be afraid of you?" Song Yun laughed nonchalantly, "I’m actually quite curious about how powerful you’d become after eating bug poop, hurry over here. I can’t wait any longer."
"Hmph!" Ghost King snorted, he had the same thought as Song Yun; having finally subdued the Golden Cicada and become notably powerful, letting Song Yun strike first, then knocking Song Yun down with a few moves — what an achievement that would be!
Strike first?
Who obliges when they’re beckoned; this still counts as being an expert?
"Come if you dare!" Ghost King said.
Song Yun paused, then smiled, "Haha, I’m daring, indeed very daring, but my daring isn’t demonstrated in this sense, you come first, you come first, I’ll acknowledge you’re daring!"
"Hmph, would I oblige just because you beckon? You come first, I’ll acknowledge you’re daring." Ghost King sneered lightly.
"I think we’re wasting time." Song Yun said, "How about this, let’s take action together, just like earlier."
"I also think we’re wasting time." Ghost King said, "Since that’s the case, let’s act together!"
"Alright, I’ll count, if anyone doesn’t act, they’re not a man!" Song Yun said.
Ghost King nodded arrogantly.
As soon as the words fell, Ghost King directly charged toward Song Yun, while Song Yun adjusted his stance and motion, then laughed, "Fool, I let you move and you really moved, brainless huh? Haha, there’s a saying in this world: never trust your enemy’s words!"
Ghost King’s face darkened but didn’t stop, instead accelerating toward Song Yun while saying, "You’ll pay for your stupid act of mocking me!"
"Come on!" Song Yun took a deep breath, lunged large strides forward toward Ghost King as well, then said, "Let me see for myself if you turn into a Super Saiyan after eating bug poop."
