The Demon Slayer Martial Saint Begins with Insect Refining

Chapter 273 The Metamorphosis of the Flame Armored Scorpion
Wu Tianxing's expression changed drastically. A small, pitch-black earthenware jar appeared in his hand. It was as black as ink, with blood-red markings swimming around it, like countless tadpoles.

He said sternly, "Nangong Hongyue, watch me take you down first, then kill your man."

He was already feeling scared. With a wave of his hand, five third-tier ferocious insects appeared. Whose offspring was this, that of a Dharma Aspect Realm or even a Golden Body Realm cultivator?

Even if he were to reach the third level of the Danqiao Realm, he might not be able to escape unscathed.

He opened the jar, and billowing black smoke, like a swarm of snakes, rushed towards Nangong Hongyue. The wind howled and the cold air was terrifying.

Behind Nangong Hongyue, the five true beast spirits of the Five Poisons Heart-Forging Gu emerged: Black Gold Silkworm, Blood Fiend Marrow Worm, Blood Scorpion, Yin Cicada, and Soul-Hooking Worm.

Each strand of true meaning contained a strong killing aura and exuded a vast amount of true energy.

The Five Poisons Heart-Forging Gu is the core technique of the Heavenly Silkworm Cave. Gu is a technique, and it can also be used to break through the Dharma Form.

Although it is not as powerful as the Subduing Tiger King Body Technique, it does not mean that it is weak.

The five true intents unleashed their attack, the five-colored light merging into blood-red light, directly impacting the black mist of the Gu jar.

In an instant, the mountain trembled, and the aftershocks resembled ocean waves, as if they were about to overturn mountains and seas.

Wu Tianxing was startled, his eyes filled with disbelief as he looked at Nangong Hongyue.

Nangong Hongyue retreated ten feet, but the Gu jar's attack did not harm her at all.

This also means that she, who is only at the peak of the first level of the Heavenly Realm, has the potential to compete with him, a martial artist at the third level of the Heavenly Realm.

This, how is this possible? !
The shock I felt was indescribable, replaced by an unspeakable fear.

Yes, it was fear. If Nangong Hongyue had such power, then there was a possibility that she could kill him.

'No, it must be that my Gu worms have been controlled! Damn it!'

With a fierce determination, he looked at the Blood Bone Centipede King with resentment and fear. The five Gu worms were completely suppressed, especially his own Black Gold Silkworm, which was bound by chains of phantoms and then enveloped in a sea of ​​blood by the Blood Bone Centipede King.

He did recall them, but it had absolutely no effect.

He hardened his heart and immediately decided to capture Nangong Hongyue before threatening Su Yan, his lover.

The jar in his hand suddenly transformed, growing to a size of about ten feet.

"The Gu mist transforms into countless insects, devour them!"

The billowing black smoke transformed into hundreds and thousands of ferocious Gu worms, rushing forward like a hundred-foot-high wave, their cries incessant, and a chilling aura sweeping over them, as if they would engulf Nangong Hongyue's delicate body in the next moment.

"Five Poisons Devouring Souls!"

Within Nangong Hongyue's body, five Gu worms emerged, their true essence merging together and arranging themselves in five positions, opening their blood-red maws to devour the black mist.

The Heavenly Fiend Transformation!
She no longer held back. A martial artist at the third level of the Danqiao Realm has gathered all three Dan, so how could their cultivation be simple?

The previous confrontation was merely a test; now, they are going all out.

Even without her signature Gu worm, she still felt immense pressure.

So she activated the ferocious insect body within her, and insect armor appeared one by one. Her eyes flashed with a fierce light, her black hair danced wildly like silk, and her body was surrounded by a murderous aura.

The natal spirit artifact, the insect bell, flew out from his hand, ringing out with a clear, crisp sound that spread outwards infused with his true essence.

The moment the black mist came into contact with the sound, it instantly dissipated.

Wu Tianxing raised his hand to form a seal, and a pitch-black palm descended from the sky.

With a flick of her slender hand, Nangong Hongyue condensed her evil energy into a blade, and with a wave of her hand, she shot it out.

For a time, their moves flew back and forth like dragons and tigers fighting, each move dangerous and deadly, and it was impossible to determine a winner for a while.

On the other hand, the situation is one-sided.

Su Yan didn't make a move himself. The Rock Demon Ant Queen's body was like a small mountain, and her divine sense transformed into thousands of blades, rushing straight towards the Black Stone Ancestor.

The Black Stone Ancestor has lost his natal artifact, and now it is extremely difficult for him to defend himself.

The blade of the spirit is invisible and intangible; it is often only noticed when it is right in front of you.

Old Ancestor Black Stone had no choice but to use other spiritual weapons to deal with the situation; in his hand was a long sword that was entirely blue.

He swung his longsword through the sword net, attempting to intercept the spiritual blade.

The Rock Demon Ant Queen did not comply with his wishes. She opened her enormous mandibles, aimed them at his head, and unleashed a storm-like mental shock.

bang
Black Stone Ancestor was unable to dodge in time and could only slash at the target with the blue stone sword in his hand.

The strike rang out with a clang, the blade shattered, and the immense spiritual impact struck the Black Stone Ancestor directly.

The Black Stone Ancestor collapsed to the ground, his mouth and nose filled with blood, his eyes tightly closed, and the damage to his soul was fatal.

The situation was even more difficult for the Blood Banner Ancestor, whose natal Blood Banner had indeed reached the strength of a third-tier high-grade weapon.

His attack was accompanied by a fluttering blood banner, summoning five or six immortal blood ghost generals, each at least at the half-step Dan Aperture stage, with the main soul ghost general being a third-tier blood ghost.

The torrent of blood never ceases, and the blood demon never dies.

However, his opponent was the Blood Dragon Worm that had transformed into a Blood Dragon.

This blood dragon is no ordinary creature. It is modeled after the half-step Great Sage who once traveled through the southern city of Shuiling. Even though it does not have the strength of a half-step Great Sage, it still possesses a certain charm.

The blood dragon soared into the sky, its blood energy gathering like clouds. With just a few leaps and tail swings, the blood banner lost its effectiveness.

The control of the blood-red aura was directly seized by the Blood Flood Dragon. In its Blood Flood Dragon form, the Blood Dragon Worm swallowed the Blood Banner whole and brought the Blood Demon under its control.

How could Blood Banner Ancestor have imagined that he would be so severely restrained?
They were wiped out before they could even resort to other methods.

Yan Xi was singled out by Su Yan, his face turning a terrifyingly ashen.

He was already deeply aware of how terrifying the man in front of him was. If he couldn't resist him, he wouldn't be able to escape once all the ferocious insects were free to attack.

"Flame, kill him."

Yan Xi went all out from the start, unleashing the Fiery Purple Scorpion, whose massive body was twenty or thirty feet long, resembling a small mountain.

Its entire carapace was as hard as if it were cast from amethyst, and flames flowed endlessly within this purple carapace, with an inextinguishable purple flame burning on its tail hook.

As soon as it appeared, the surrounding temperature rose rapidly like a furnace, the vegetation withered and burst into flames.

As soon as the Fiery Purple Scorpion appeared, it summoned a raging torrent of purple flames and sprayed them toward Su Yan.

Yan Xi also took out the Demon Flame Hook and slashed at Su Yan's head.

Seeing that he had summoned the Fiery Purple Scorpion, Su Yan's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he thought to himself, "This is exactly what I've been waiting for."

The Ten Thousand Insects Prison Tower flew directly over, and hundreds of prison-suppressing chains broke through the purple flames, slamming heavily onto the Flaming Purple Scorpion.

bang
The fiery purple scorpion swung its pincers to block, like a massive shield, fiercely protecting its body.

"A late-stage Tier 3 wild beast is indeed troublesome."

Su Yan's expression became more serious. A late-stage third-tier wild beast was almost equivalent to a martial artist at the third level of the Heavenly Realm.

This Fiery Purple Scorpion is the clan's guardian beast, nurtured by the Fiery Cave for hundreds of years, and possesses an even more profound heritage.

"You little thief, taste my Demon Flame Hook!"

With a flick of his Flame Hook, a hundred-foot-long fiery slash hurtled straight at Su Yan. Su Yan's gaze turned icy, and his Star-Picking Hand instantly materialized, his pale, jade-like palm striking out as if he were catching a tiny sparrow.

broken!
With a grab of his star-picking hand, the Flame Slash instantly transformed into a sky full of sparks.

Yan Xi's eyes widened: "How is this possible?!"

Su Yan shook his head and looked at him. The beast storage bag shook, and the Spirit Rhinoceros Tiger was released.

"My Lord"

"Play with him."

The spirit tiger's eyes flashed with ferocity, and its single horn instantly emitted a bright red light, shooting out a blood-fiend divine light that shot straight towards the fiery mat.

Yan Xi hurriedly tried to stop it, blocking the demonic flame hook in front of him. The blood-fiend divine light fell on it, instantly eroding it and turning it into a dim color.

Yan Xi's cultivation level is only at the second level, which is not bad, but compared to Su Yan?

Su Yan is at the peak of the first level of the Heavenly Realm, and he is constantly suppressing his true essence. The gold content of his nine-turn true essence golden core and the thirty-six star apertures in his body is so high that even if someone from the second level of the Heavenly Realm came, it would be impossible to tell who would be stronger.

"You young human, don't be so arrogant."

The Fiery Purple Scorpion gathered its killing intent, and its two pincers drew out purple flames, crossing and blocking Su Yan.

With a clanging sound, the prison chains connected into a network, directly blocking the flames.

Chains of imprisonment attacked the Fiery Purple Scorpion from all directions.

Enraged, the Fiery Purple Scorpion slammed its fist into the ground, causing the entire mountain to tremble. Earth fire surged forth like pillars, heading straight for Su Yan.

"seal up"

True meaning emerged behind Su Yan. The True Meaning of Subduing Tiger King lowered his eyes as if in sorrow, held up a tower with his large hand, and released a hundred-foot red light.

A terrifying sealing power immediately enveloped the entire area.

The pillar of fire instantly dissipated, and those wisps of flame vanished like drifting catkins.

The intertwined chains of the prison now clung to it, and the Fiery Purple Scorpion tried to struggle free.

Unexpectedly, it felt as if a towering mountain was weighing down on its massive body, making it increasingly difficult to struggle and move.

When the first chain wrapped around the Flaming Purple Scorpion, the sealing power suddenly intensified.

Its spear-like scorpion legs were bound, and its pincers tried to cut the chains, but more chains, like long snakes, locked its limbs.

In just a few breaths, the Fiery Purple Scorpion was completely sealed off, and all the purple flames were forced into its body.

"Fire flames!"

Yan Xi was extremely anxious and wanted to get away to come and help.

As a result of this distraction, the Spirit Rhinoceros Tiger seized the opportunity, biting off his arm and piercing his body with a powerful Blood Fiend Divine Light, knocking him to the ground, his fate unknown.

Beneath the iron chain cage of the Ten Thousand Insects Prison Tower, Blood Banner Ancestor and Black Stone Ancestor had already been killed. Even Yan Xi had his Golden Core sealed and his life taken by the pursuing Spirit Rhinoceros Tiger.

Although Wu Tianxing was still fighting, he used seven-tenths of his strength to save his life. He was filled with fear and anxiety and was unable to exert his full strength.

Su Yan glanced at it and immediately ordered, "Go and keep an eye on Wu Tianxing."

The five ferocious insects, along with the Spirit Rhinoceros Tiger and six other third-tier wild beasts, surrounded them. Wu Tianxing's heart sank to the bottom. Let alone escaping, even self-destruction might not be able to harm the enemy in the slightest.

“Nangong Hong…”

He had just opened his mouth when he saw Nangong Hongyue suddenly condense her murderous aura, and the insect bell in her hand transformed into a slender sword of murderous energy.

"die!"

With this strike, Nangong Hongyue's five Gu worms combined their power with her true intent.

She was struck by the Gu jar, her body staggered, and her hard insect armor shattered inch by inch, but her gaze showed no sign of retreating.

A sword flashed coldly, its murderous aura penetrating the body.

A bright red spot appeared between Wu Tianxing's eyebrows, and he died instantly.

"Mother, I've avenged you..."

As Nangong Hongyue fell, the Blood Bone Centipede King flew over and caught her, gently landing her on the ground.

The Heavenly Fiend Mother Locust controlled the essence of the fiendish energy and poured it into her body. Suddenly, she saw the spiritual energy around her begin to gather little by little, and her body became lighter, showing signs of a breakthrough.

A large hand pressed on her shoulder, and true essence surged into her body, circulating through her body several times before being channeled into her True Essence Golden Core.

"The fifth stage of the elixir is still a bit short. I'll try to break through again when the True Essence Golden Core reaches the seventh stage. With the bloodline of the Heavenly Fiend Mother Locust, reaching the seventh stage might not be impossible."

Nangong Hongyue looked up at Su Yan, her eyes filled with tenderness, and nodded softly, saying, "I will listen to you, sir."

Nangong Hongyue meditated to rest and recover from her physical exhaustion, while Su Yan released the Flame Armored Scorpion.

As soon as the Flame Armored Scorpion appeared, it became extremely agitated, its attention almost entirely focused on the bound Flame Purple Scorpion.

Su Yan chuckled: "Swallow it and then begin your transformation."

The Flame Armored Scorpion had been with it for a long time, but because it couldn't wait for the Fiery Purple Scorpion, its transformation progress had been slow.

It should be noted that in the True Realm, the Flame Armored Scorpion is a tank with a hard shell like a mountain or steel, making it much stronger than the Blood Bone Centipede King when it was a six-winged blood centipede.

I wonder what I'll look like after this transformation.

Upon receiving Su Yan's order, the Flame Armored Scorpion immediately came to the front of the Blazing Purple Scorpion and opened its ferocious, guillotine-like mouthparts.

The Fiery Purple Scorpion's hard carapace was crushed by its mandibles, and flames shot out. The flames, powerful enough to melt stone and break metal, landed on the Fiery Armored Demon Scorpion's body, but it was like a drop of water falling into the ocean.

The demonic flames on the Flame Armored Scorpion's body flickered like excited hyenas, instantly enveloping the purple flames and then slowly swallowing them up.

With each wisp of flame consumed, the demonic fire would rise a few more degrees.

Despite the Fiery Purple Scorpion's greater strength, in terms of the quality of its flames alone, the Demonic Flame that Devours All Flames is undoubtedly more powerful.

The Fiery Purple Scorpion tried to struggle, but under the seal and restraint of the Ten Thousand Insect Prison Tower, its struggles were futile.

Even a True Person in the Dharma Aspect Realm would find it difficult to produce a fourth-tier spiritual weapon so easily.

However, such a magical artifact happened to appear in Su Yan's hands, and even became the thing that suppressed it. It was truly fate.

As time passed, the Flame Armored Scorpion devoured the Fiery Purple Scorpion, and its body began to emit a crimson light, gradually enveloping the Fiery Purple Scorpion.

Su Yan's Ferocious Insect Cauldron trembled slightly, and its power was continuously injected into the cocoon. As time passed, the cocoon, which was as big as a small mountain, gradually turned as red as a gemstone.

For a full day and night, Su Yan and Nangong Hongyue stood before the cocoon, feeling the powerful energy gestating within.

"Click"

A crimson light burst forth, and cracks began to appear on the cocoon, from which powerful third-order energy surged forth.

[The Flame-Armored Demon Scorpion devoured the molted remains of the Glossy Spirit Flame, the Fiery Heart Mystic Ore Crystal, and the Blood of the Subspecies Fire Scale, transforming into: the Molten Mountain Giant Scorpion]
