Chapter 663: Chapter 476: The Undying Centipede! News from Wang Xiao-yi (Big Chapter of 5k)_2

""A thousand hands, a thousand feet, driven by greed, how could they have attracted such a demon beast?"

Yu Yinye's brows furrowed.

The Thousand-Leg Centipede was not a common demon beast. It was recorded in the ''Demon-resisting Agency Work Manual'' that during the Year of Disaster, when fields were deserted and the rich monopolized food supplies leading to widespread hunger and corpses discarded in the wild mountains, devoured by jackal wolves and stray dogs.

The apathetic rich fed their greed, and the bodies of the starving villagers fostered this insatiable desire. Over the years, the accumulated corpses changed in the mountains, eventually turning into a demon beast that resembled a centipede with a thousand hands and a thousand feet, an endless hunger and unstoppable greed.

It was said that if one cut off all of its hands and feet, the last one would turn golden and ensure that a buried body would not decay, blessing future generations with longevity.
