My Journey to Godhood as a Caterpillar

As devil was currently controlling the girl no words would shake her out of her stupor, maybe only if Chu Mang was here but that wasn't going to happen but Yun Jhin still had a plan as he mimicked Chu Mang's voice and he said:

"Darling remember when we first got you to the fields so you can see a rabbit?"contemporary romance

Tears started to drip out of the girl's eyes unconsciously as the voice struck a chord in her heart and she whispered:

"Papa?"

Suddenly Yun Jhin appeared in front of her as he cut one of her arms off! The girl clutched her stump as the devil directly ignored her soul and took control of her body as a raspy voice came out of the girl's mouth:

"Aren't you a smart human cultivator, taking advantage of the girl's weakness and then disfiguring her instantly, I like you human, your body would be a very much needed aid to my recovery."

Yun Jhin snorted as he looked at the devil as he said:

"Thinking you can take my body devil? I know what you have done to the sword devil sect, I have the cultivation technique you left behind right here and I already taught it to some of my disciples."

Some disciples came forward as they inched closers to the controlled girl's body, they were glowing red as if seemingly ready to explode. The girl frowned as he observed the canon fodder disciples inch closer to her body, the devil shook his head as he looked at the disciples and said:

"So the sword devil sect changed hands, whatever, I know how to easily counter the technique."

He snapped his fingers as the glow on the disciple's bodies faded away, the disciples looked down at their hands wondering what happened to their technique. Yun Jhin narrowed his eyes as he said:

"What have you done devil?"

The devil chuckled as he didn't say anything and started attacking again, using the girl's body he savagely tried to choke Yun Jhin's body, the speed increase of the girl's body was exponentially bigger than before as her skin started to melt and drip on the ground near, some of the skin even dropped on Yun Jhin's robe and hardened immediately.

Suddenly from the girl's forehead, a devilish red face quickly entered the consciousness space of the patriarch to only find nothing there, a chuckle came out in the empty consciousness space as soul willpower directly struck the devil's body, the wounds on his body opened immediately as he shrieked in pain, his physical body was ejected from the patriarch's consciousness as it appeared on the ground near the dying girl's body.

The girl dying throes were ignored by Yun Jhin as he got up from the ground dusted himself scrapping the dead petrified skin from his robe easily, he looked down at the devil that was clutching his wounds, he looked like an insect with sharp claws and teeth, no maw could be seen as only his teeth were visible, he had wings on his back and as he stood down there on his back he looked like a cockroach who couldn't get up after falling on it's back.

Yun Jhin's hand directly hit a meridian point in the body of the thing, clogging his blood flow and slowing his regenerative abilities to nothing, he stood there writhing in pain as Yun Jhin told the disciples to disperse, the corpse of a devil was very useful to the current Yun Jhin, especially that he was a Ki cultivating expert.

Yun Jhin dragged the body back to the treasury under the wide-eyed stares of everyone, elders and disciples alike, even his 'son' Miedo didn't know what to say to his father as the door to the treasury locked itself.

Yun Jhin chuckled as he looked down at the downed devil and his arm directly went to the being's skull as it crushed it and he absorbed the soul, the information from the soul wasn't very useful as bits and fragments here and there were destroyed, it seemed not only was his body injured so was his soul, Yun Jhin grumbled as he didn't find the information he wanted, the current location of the entrance to hell!

The entrance to hell would shift locations every 100 years and he wasn't sure how much time passed since he was reincarnated so he wouldn't waste his time to go and find the former entrance to hell as there was a chance his journey would be in vain!

The soul of the devil didn't have much information so after he fully absorbed it he used the remainder of the soul energy to mend his soul by quite a bit, even though it was damaged and fragmented he felt that he was halfway to the third stage of the heavenly realm.

As his main body left the patriarch's body he immediately went to devour the devil, the taste of the meat was different from humans, it was acrid and it smelled horribly, the bones were though and hard to crunch, the blood was acidic, the wings tasted like sandpaper, devils weren't things that he liked to eat, even in his former lives, only devils found other devils to be delicious, but when they got ahold of human meat they even stopped eating themselves as they found each other to be too disgusting.

As he finished the devil's body he felt that he was only a hair away from breaking through to the third level, as he used his nutrients to quicken the mending of his soul instead of strengthening his body, he was already at the max rank of the current caterpillar form so he didn't need anything else before evolving.

[Host devoured a middle-level devilish entity at the Ki Refining realm, body extremely damaged, nutrients insufficient for the host to evolve to a devilish caterpillar, host needs to eat 500 whole devils above the host's current cultivation base to evolve into a devilish caterpillar!]

The devilish caterpillar could reach rank 9,500 and it was one of the strongest known caterpillars, however, it wasn't the strongest, there was still the celestial caterpillar which could reach rank 9,999 and the fortuned caterpillar which was the strongest caterpillar that could reach the max rank at 10,000.

However, to reach these caterpillars was impossible as technically speaking he had to eat celestial beings at the god realm, there weren't even that many celestial beings in existence, there was a very low chance for him to become a celestial caterpillar as for becoming a fortuned caterpillar that was out the question as well.

Where would he find 999 other fortuned ones to devour? technically speaking fortuned ones were born each 500 years, so that meant he would have to live for 500,000 years to be able to devour 1000 fortuned ones.

The average lifespan of a god realm cultivator was 100,000 years and the most Yun Jhin reached in his former lives was 200,000 years, that was with the cultivation of multiple bloodlines and constitutions that he stole, he was basically at the peak of longevity that a human could reach, even though he could technically live more being a caterpillar he still couldn't live to 500,000 years, let's not even speak about the fortuned one's locations, even though he could identify them when he saw them, he would have to see them first!

As Yun Jhin looked down at the ground where the body of the devil stood he shook his head, the devil had nothing on him anymore, all of his belongings were either used up or destroyed when he fought with the one that injured him, Yun Jhin could use more materials from hell to hasten this current body of his into the transformation of the living undead, he would mostly have to use this body until he could either find a more talented one or evolved from his mind-transforming caterpillar form.

Yun Jhin took a hold of the opportunity of devouring the devil and strived to break through to the third level of the heavenly realm, with the marble in his hand he used it to mend his soul faster as he sat cross-legged.

After 3 months of continuous cultivation, he finally reached the 3rd stage of the heavenly realm and sighed as Sun Sisheng's body reached the 4th level. He knew that he couldn't get stronger anymore in this environment, it was too poor!

He might even need to leave the sects earlier than he planned, due to the good fortune in form of the devil's body and soul he became way stronger than before and gained another stage of cultivation, however, the material that he sough-after wasn't found at all, he thought that his subordinates were mostly useless, how couldn't they find the plants he needed?

He just needed a few more plants to be able to concoct the pill so he could transform Sun Sisheng's body into a living undead. Yun Jhin sighed as it was time to take the bull by the horns and go into a plant harvesting adventure himself, his subordinates weren't reliable at all when suddenly Miedo banged on the door of the treasury as he said with joy in his voice:

"Father, one of the disciples from the fairies sect found one of the plants that you wanted, she came here and awaits for your orders!"

Yun Jhin's eyes narrowed as he heard that, this was an interesting coincidence, the moment he wanted to go adventuring himself, one of the plants he sought was sent to his door, he left the treasury and met with the woman that got her hands on the plant, she was a small woman that stood at 1,57 meters and she had a fair complexion due to the cultivation technique she trained in.

Her body wasn't that hot as her chest area was as flat as a board and her thighs weren't thick, she looked like a little school girl that hasn't matured yet, the girl's hands were trembling as she presented Yun Jhin the dark flower that he needed, it was a Yin Corpse flower that required the gathering of both Yin ice energy and Yin corpse energy to grow.

Yun Jhin patted the girl's head and indicated for her that she could leave. The girl didn't even say an eep as she left with her head down, she bit her lips and left the palace. Yun Jhin looked at her receding back and said:

"Give her 5 food pills and 10 spirit stones, also do her one favor."

Even though Yun Jhin was an evil overlord he couldn't keep his subordinates starved if they put in good work or else they would revolt against him, he did try that once in a former life and he had to kill all of his subordinates in the revolt making him having a harder time gathering information and resources.

Yun Jhin then went back to the treasury as he left the plant with the others, now he was only missing a dragon flower, white ginseng, an undead worm flower and a maggot of the highest level. These were the main ingredients needed to create the corpse transforming pill combined with the others that he already had such as the blood devil rose and the ice lotus, now that he had Yin Corpse flower he was closer and closer to his goal of transforming Sun Sisheng's body.

Even though one of the ingredients was found Yun Jhin didn't want to loiter around waiting for the other's to be found as one year or so already passed since he gave the order for the materials to be found and only one of them was found after such a long time!

He needed to take on the fields himself and find the materials, his lifespan was limited and he couldn't waste it on waiting, he already learned this from his former lives, no matter what he did the faster the better!

In the end, death would come no matter in what form, death on the battlefield, death peacefully in your bed, death by assassination, etc.

So rushing to complete your goals was the best way of cultivating, of course, rushing cultivation would leave sequelae and impurities but with the pieces of knowledge, he gained from his former lives Yun Jhin could neutralize all of them!

After he made sure he kept the ingredients in a good location he left the sect behind as he exited the forest and went to a nearby city, maybe there he could find some of the ingredients he needed, as they couldn't be found in the wild that meant either mercenaries or herb pickers might have picked them by accident thinking that they could be valuable, he already visited both sects and took as many spirit stones as he could.

He needed to get his hands on a spatial bag these days.
