The Deities murmured amongst themselves, especially those from the Hunyuan Martial Dao Saint Realm, who were clearly displeased with Li Yang.
"Li Yang's status as a genius means nothing in the face of the Gold-devouring Insect. As a genius, he might attract a few dozen aliens trying to kill him, but now that he has the Gold-devouring Insect and is still so weak, he could attract hundreds, even thousands."
"Once word spreads that Li Yang has entered the Slaughter Battlefield, he'll be in danger everywhere!"
"If Li Yang dies, the Gold-devouring Insect will just end up in the hands of a powerful alien anyway."
"So greedy. He's so weak, yet he's hoarding the Gold-devouring Insect and refusing to let go."
...
The Gold-devouring Insect is clearly a weapon against Deities. In their view, it would be best used by a Deity—a powerful one at that.
After all, some top-tier Deities could withstand the Gold-devouring Insect's attacks long enough to kill its weak master!
