噬金虫
Gold Devouring Beetles
📖 Definition
A legendary type of rare insect ranked 12th on the ‘Rare Insect Ranking’. They are metallic, devour metal and spiritual energy, and are known for their incredible hardness. Their true power lies in overwhelming numbers (tens or hundreds of thousands). They were discovered dormant under Xiaohuan Island and awakened by the scent of other insects. Han Li found they mature and reproduce rapidly when fed ‘Swaying Grass’, leading to cannibalism and egg-laying cycles.
