Otherworldly Desert Dust

What???

Totem Sacred Sect Cai Huang??

Isn’t that his damned old dad’s host?!

Wu Hen had now mastered the cultivation abilities of the Totem Sacred Sect, which were previously granted by the host Cai Ting.

As Wu Hen cultivated the Holy Sect system to the Holy Infant level, this power had been imprinted on his soul and not just on his bloodline; even without bringing back the host body, Wu Hen had virtually inherited Cai Ting’s cultivation.

The host was probably completely lost or annihilated, and Wu Hen thought he would no longer have any connection with this host, but he never expected to encounter his father here in Red Port!

"The Totem Sacred Sect should be the governing sect of some Human Clan’s Divine Realm, and their influence spreads across Otherworldly Dust’s realms. This Infinite Red Port has one of their branch sects... Unsurprisingly, the Purple Robed Master and his disciples also set out from here and encountered us from Nuwa God End in the Divine Python Earth Vein," Chief Li said.

Upon hearing this, Wu Hen nodded in agreement.

The Purple Robed Master indeed was taking his disciples out for training, and since it was training, they definitely had a stronghold.

He hadn’t expected that their sect’s stronghold was right here in Infinite Red Port...

Suddenly, Wu Hen remembered the Boundary Power theory previously mentioned by Chief Li.

If Boundary Power were considered the gravity of a planet, then Infinite Red Port would be akin to a small solar system, drawing all passing civilizations into its domain and causing these civilizations to ultimately intersect and collide here.

Having encountered Holy Sect personnel in the Divine Python Earth Vein, there was a high likelihood that the people from this cultivation civilization were in the largest "port" nearby.

Frankly, Wu Hen was excited to hear this news!

He had already stepped into the Totem Sacred Sect’s cultivation system, which was now a branch in his own Evolution Chain Gate. If he wanted to ascend further, he must obtain a Spirit Key, and such keys were primarily held by major Sects! Explore more stories at NovelBin.Côm

"Unfortunately, that host has been lost; otherwise, I could have stolen some knowledge," Wu Hen sighed heavily.

"You’re somewhat underestimating the capabilities of our Nuwa Lineage,"

"We have capabilities?" Wu Hen said, surprised.

"In the culture of cultivation, advancing in realm often accompanies a transformation and rebirth, from a biological standpoint, each major advancement is akin to swapping a physical shell, moving closer to nature’s process of breaking the cocoon to become a butterfly," Chief Li explained.

"Ah?" This was the first time Wu Hen had heard such a theory.

But upon deeper reflection, Wu Hen felt that Chief Li made a lot of sense.

From the initial stage of flowing with Holy Blood, to condensing out a Holy Embryo, Holy Infant, Holy Child... each realm transforms the body radically, and while the appearance remains the same, it has completely transcended the mundane fleshly form, becoming a physique with sanctity.

"Their cultivation system starts with bloodline, and the process is to condense out a Holy Form. You already possess a Holy Infant, and this Holy Infant more than anything attributes to your identity," Chief Li stated.

"It’s much like the process of becoming a butterfly. In the beginning, all cultivators are like chrysalises, and actually, no one really remembers what a chrysalis looks like. Eventually, everyone flies in the sky, and it’s the butterfly form that their kind will remember and recognize, right?" Wu Hen quickly understood.

Chief Li nodded, realizing that Wu Hen indeed possessed a very high level of comprehension. Even without accidentally acquiring that supreme divine miracle material, he would have become one of the top figures in Desert Dust.

"Yes, you say you are Cai Ting from Totem Sacred Sect, and no one would question you, including the biological father of your host, unless someone who has been around the host daily, certain from behavior habits that you are not the person themselves, tries to discern through other means. It wouldn’t be possible," Chief Li said.

Suddenly, Wu Hen thought of his aunt.

His aunt quickly saw through it.

The reason was that she had been in daily contact with the host, and the soul of the host had actually been lost in Otherworldly Desert Dust long ago, so naturally, all his actions thereafter were abnormal.

According to Wu Hen’s understanding, Cai Ting was the illegitimate son of Cai Huang, with a very low status. Cai Huang even prohibited him from calling him father in public, which essentially indicated that this father never regarded Cai Ting as a legitimate offspring.

An illegitimate child, whom barely even cared about, and who was even abandoned early on to other sect members to fend for himself, then Cai Huang would certainly not be able to judge whether Wu Hen was an imposter by his behavior!

"Didn’t I just mention it? Never underestimate the abilities of Nuwa’s people," Chief Li continued.

"Oh, do tell."

"Emotionally intelligent version: Nuwa is an ancient god from the primordial era of the Human Clan. The reason we can awaken from losing our bodies among other clans is that our bodies carry the most ancient and orthodox Nuwa bloodline. We are the spirits of guidance for the Human Clan’s Ten Thousand Veins, leading all those lost in the Otherworldly Desert Dust back to the primordial, back into the womb of Nuwa," Chief Li explained.

"Oh, no wonder our true form is like that of a leaf butterfly. We are indeed tiny guiding spirits of the Human Clan. Hearing this, it seems we are rather noble and exalted. Then why do outsiders often call us Lower Seed People, Nuwa’s parasitic wasps?" asked Wu Hen, puzzled.

"In our biological world, do you know about parasitic wasps that lay eggs inside caterpillars?" Chief Li said.

Wu Hen nodded; he too was a man of great learning.

Parasitic wasps, especially parasitic wasps and cocoons. @@novelbin@@

"They lay their eggs inside caterpillars, and when the eggs hatch, the larvae of the parasitic wasps gradually consume the host’s internal tissues. Usually, they do not kill the host immediately. Instead, they allow the caterpillar to continue living and maintaining vitality, and in some cases, even manipulate the caterpillar to weave protective cocoons for their pupae."

"During the hatching of the parasitic eggs, they secrete neurosignals, and the accompanying polyhedrosis virus also disrupts the normal behaviors of the caterpillar mother, interfering with its instinctive judgments, causing it to also nurture the growth of the parasitic eggs throughout its lifetime."

Chief Li used a natural world example to explain the relationship between humans and the Nuwa God End.

"So to put it in low emotional intelligence terms, are we that hateful, filthy, despicable kind of parasitic wasps? Through secreting some kind of disruptive signal, causing Nuwa God End to carry the heavy burden of parasitic eggs forward, even with overflowing maternal love caring for us, the parasites?" asked Wu Hen.

Wu Hen recalled how he had recently been disrupted by a Jade Lady Mantis in his own biological signals, leading to a confusion in identifying friend from foe.

"We have influenced Nuwa’s cognition. As the Mother of Ten Thousand Veins, Nuwa hence releases a biological signal, influencing all people from the Otherworldly Desert Dust of the Human Clan..."

"This means, even if we take over a certain host, those linked to that host by blood, emotions, or causal bonds will also develop neurologically disordered emotional bonds towards us."
