The Demon Slayer Martial Saint Begins with Insect Refining

Chapter 317 Tianyuan Changchun Valley

A terrifying roar unleashed a series of sonic waves, and a powerful force surged towards Su Yan.

Su Yan's expression turned cold, and the Blood Bone Centipede King beneath him shot out a beam of red light, shattering the attack.

At this moment, outside Tianyuan Changchun Valley, ancient trees swayed, and the tracks of three wild beasts converged outside the valley: the Rock Lion Beast, the Purple Blood Monster Ape, and the Purple Thorn Sky Winged Deer.

The leaders were all late-stage Tier 3 Calamity Beasts, followed by their respective clans.

The Rock Lion Beast, Purple Blood Ape, and Purple Bauhinia Winged Deer, who were initially facing off against each other, were instantly united by Su Yan's appearance.

The rock lion beast was particularly wary of Su Yan: "Human, this is our territory, get out of here!"

The Purple Blood Ape's eyes widened, and it did the same, its body enveloped in purple demonic energy like mist.

The Bauhinia Sky Winged Deer has wings as sharp as knives, exuding a piercing aura.

Su Yan looked past them and discovered that Tianyuan Changchun Valley was in a strange state. The vital energy was constantly gathering, and a thin mist enveloped the entire valley, vaguely forming a huge white semi-circular dome.

Seeing that Su Yan dared to ignore them, the rock lion opened its blood-red maw and unleashed a beam of yellow light that shot straight at Su Yan.

Su Yan remained calm, opened his palm and grabbed, the golden palm print of the Subduing Tiger King directly blocked the attack.

Subdue the Tiger!

The true meaning of the Subduing Tiger King appeared behind Su Yan. After breaking through the attack, the giant palm descended from the sky and instantly transformed into a colossal hand that covered the sky, pressing down on the rock lion beast.

The rock lion roared and rose up, its body swelling rapidly until it reached a height of over thirty feet.

However, upon contact with this enormous handprint, a powerful suppressive force emanated from the true intent of the Subduing Tiger King, directly suppressing the power surrounding it.

In an instant, his body shrank, and his body was directly grasped by a giant hand. With a crack, all the bones in his body broke.

The Purple Blood Ape and the Purple Thorn Sky Winged Deer were taken aback and immediately turned to flee.

The Rock Lion Beast was of similar strength to them, but it was subdued in one move. The person in front of them was simply beyond their ability to withstand.

However, how could Su Yan let them escape so easily?

The Divine Fiend Locust flew out, transforming into two blood-red tornado swarms of bees. In an instant, it caught up with them, engulfing them. Before they could even resist, they were invaded by countless malevolent energies until they died.

After easily dealing with the three third-tier calamity beasts, Su Yan flew to the edge of Tianyuan Changchun Valley.

"Such strong spiritual energy, it even has spatial fluctuations..."

Su Yan looked surprised. At this moment, Tianyuan Changchun Valley seemed to be in a special secret space.

Beyond the white fog, not only is visibility poor, but exploration becomes extremely difficult.

With a swift movement, he grabbed an ancient tree and tossed it into this special barrier.

The next moment, the ancient tree split in two, one half disappeared and the other half turned into dust.

Spatial turbulence!

Something must be happening in Tianyuan Changchun Valley, and this barrier is the obstacle that is blocking the Rock Lion Beast and the others.

Su Yan frowned slightly. Even he couldn't guarantee he could break through such a strong barrier.

"Such a barrier is likely the work of an ancient insect from the spirit realm."

Su Yan immediately took out the broken horn of the ancient spirit insect that Bi Qingman had given him.

The broken horn, resembling topaz, emitted a faint yellow fluorescence after sensing the power of the barrier.

As true essence surged into the broken horn, the spatial barrier before him immediately sensed the resonance of the same source of power, and the next moment it stirred up ripples like water.

The ripples only covered an area of ​​about ten feet, but the feeling of spatial turbulence had clearly disappeared.

A powerful suction force came, as if someone was pulling Su Yan. Caught off guard, his figure immediately disappeared outside the barrier.

Inside the Changchun Valley of Tianyuan, Su Yan steadied himself, his brows furrowed. The force that had pulled him in earlier had now placed him inside the valley.

What came into view was a bizarre scene: the vegetation in the valley was a mix of decay and growth, with one patch of withered yellow and rotten plants and another patch of lush greenery.

The vital energy was continuously drawn away and gathered into the valley. The barrier behind them had now completely returned to its original state, filled with spatial turbulence, making it impossible to escape.

Su Yan had a bad feeling; this valley was probably not just about ancient spirit insects.

rustling

On the ground, vines suddenly spread out continuously, as if they had come to life, and frantically attacked Su Yan and the Blood Bone Centipede King.

The Blood Bone Centipede King's demonic energy was as sharp as a blade, instantly severing the vines that attacked.

With a thought from Su Yan, the Blood Bone Centipede King immediately understood and began exploring deeper into the valley.

The Blood Bone Centipede King was extremely fast, flying low over the valley.

Su Yan discovered that it wasn't just the entrance to the valley that presented this scene of withered and flourishing life; the further in he went, the more severe this situation became, with withered and flourishing life intertwined, and the vines, neither dead nor alive, spreading throughout the valley like a spider web.

The vines seemed to attack relentlessly, without ever showing any signs of fatigue.

The Blood Bone Centipede King continuously severed the hair vines, and the further it went in, the more intense its attacks became, and the direction of its true essence flow became more and more obvious.

After walking for a quarter of an hour, Su Yan arrived at the middle of the valley, his body covered by dense, impenetrable vines.

The withered vines intertwined, with dark green lines hidden at the base of the vines, like a thin thread.

At this moment, the intertwined vines blocked Su Yan's path. At a narrow pass, the vines turned into a high wall.

"boom"

The vines, twisted like a wooden dragon, were several tens of feet long and half a foot wide, and attacked Su Yan and the Blood Bone Centipede King.

The Blood Bone Centipede King showed no mercy, opening its gaping maw and unleashing a blinding red beam that tore apart the vine-covered wall.

Wow
The sound of collapse came, and the moment the vine wall was torn apart, a white waterfall poured out, white bones, like a waterfall, shattered and scattered bone dust as they collided.

Su Yan's heart sank; the number of these skeletons probably represented all the creatures in the valley.

"You audacious junior, how dare you ruin my plans!"

A cold voice rang out, and a figure stepped out from the pile of bones. His clothes were tattered, his skin was deathly pale, and his muscular body was covered with strange tattoos.

He held a heavy scimitar made of animal bone in his hand, and his eyes, which seemed to be burning with will-o'-the-wisps, stared at Su Yan in a sinister manner.

"kill!"

Without saying a word, this person charged directly at Su Yan, his terrifying aura instantly reaching the strength of the Star Sea stage, his blade energy was chilling, and his attack was a hundred feet long.

Su Yan's golden body as the Subduing Tiger King appeared, and he punched the blade's energy, shattering it instantly. The nameless martial artist rushed forward, his speed leaving several afterimages on the ground.

The beast bone scimitar swept across the sky, its blade energy forming a net, attempting to envelop both Su Yan and the Blood Bone Centipede King.

At this moment, Su Yan saw the situation in the inner valley clearly. Two orbs of light, one yellow and one green, were intertwined in the air above the inner valley. True essence continuously poured into them, enveloping the two orbs of light.

Stimulated by the light, the vines spread to every corner of the inner valley, enveloping the many mummies and skeletons within.

The Blood Bone Centipede King spewed out poisonous mist, which destroyed the nearby blade energy like a tornado.

The nameless warrior seemed particularly enraged. He pointed his beast-bone scimitar to the sky and chanted incantations. Under the control of the vines, countless skeletons stood up and charged directly at Su Yan.

The Blood Bone Centipede King fought against the nameless warrior, and the skeletons all came to besiege Su Yan.

At this moment, Su Yan's gaze was indifferent, and he did not want to communicate with this person. He directly summoned his true meaning, which was a huge true meaning of the Tiger-Taming King. It was solemn and majestic.

"The Hundred Tigers Breaking the Army Seal!"

The Bright King formed a hand seal and swept across the valley.

As the golden light shone brightly, countless tiger shadows rushed out, like a ferocious tiger legion, carrying an eerie tiger aura, and charged into the skeleton legion.

The two sides were like black and white torrents. After the tiger shadow launched its attack, the vines were ignited by the evil energy and began to turn to ashes inch by inch.

Su Yan unleashed his full power, and in just a short while, the army of white bones was utterly routed.

"How can it be?!"

The nameless martial artist exclaimed in surprise, how could Su Yan have broken through his defenses in such a short time?

He was momentarily thrown into disarray, and the venom from the Blood Bone Centipede King's mouth transformed into swords, instantly shooting into his body.

puff
The sword pierced through his defenses, instantly penetrating his left chest.

Before the blood could gush out, the pierced wound had already been continuously corroded and decayed by the toxins, turning into a large hole.

The nameless warrior wanted to retaliate, but the Blood Bone Centipede King had been preparing for a long time. It swallowed him whole, crushing his life force.

After a lightning-fast battle, Su Yan stood atop a pile of bones.

Among the piles of bones were both human and wild beasts; it could be said that any living creature that appeared in the valley was now likely just bones beneath one's feet.

Su Yan frowned: "Such a scale cannot be achieved in just one or two years. Grandmaster Bi stayed in Tianyuan Changchun Valley for three years and did not notice such an anomaly at all. Could it be because the barrier was exposed?"

He had quietly noticed that the space he had entered seemed to resemble the outer Tianyuan Changchun Valley, but in reality, its size and boundaries deviated from the actual environment.

This feeling of being transformed is like arriving in a strange, mysterious place.

The ground beneath my feet was covered in white bones, producing an unpleasant grinding sound.

Su Yan walked into the valley. Vines covered almost every corner, and his true essence in the valley had almost reached the point of liquefaction.

He continued walking deeper into the cave, descending from a pile of bones about ten feet high, only to be met with a shocking scene.

There were over a thousand martial artists sitting cross-legged on the ground. Their appearance was similar to that of Lingnan Prefecture, and a large number of them were dressed in simple and plain clothes. However, they were all fierce and menacing. Judging from their appearance, they should be demonic martial artists, the group of people who were taken into Tianyuan Changchun Valley when the Hundred Caves Witch Sect retreated.

Su Yan's expression was solemn. The two groups of people, totaling nearly a thousand martial artists, had all turned into mummies, their flesh and blood hollowed out, leaving only dry skin and bones.

Their grotesque appearance resembled dried-up zombies, their faces contorted with rage and terror.

Using people to practice qigong!

These words involuntarily surfaced in Su Yan's mind, while two orbs of light, one yellow and one green, continued to absorb spiritual energy in the sky.

The Ferocious Insect Cauldron trembled slightly. Su Yan noticed this and a look of surprise appeared on his face. The two orbs of light were actually alien insects.

"Be careful, little friend!"

A weak voice hurriedly issued a warning. Su Yan looked in the direction from which the voice came from, and saw the source of the vines on a rock wall that resembled an old root.

On both sides were the mummified corpses of Danqiao Realm martial artists and third-tier wild beasts. In the middle, the person most severely entangled by vines, whose body was as withered as a withered old man in tattered green robes, actually slightly opened his eyes. His breath was faint, but he was not yet dead.

Su Yan narrowed his eyes, standing about ten feet away from the person.

The man warned with all his might, “Those are two ancient strange insects, the Spirit Realm Ancient Insect and the Spring and Autumn Withering and Flourishing Insect. The two restrain each other, and there is spatial turbulence within a few feet in front of them. Touching them may cause the destruction of your own body.”

"Who are you?"

When Su Yan asked the question, the man moved slightly, but he could not break free from the vines' restraints. His body had already been pierced by the vines.

"Young friend, save me! I am Master Changchun, and I have been ambushed and trapped here by the traitorous disciple Fu Lingze."

A glimmer of light appeared in Master Changchun's eyes; he finally had hope of surviving.

"Was that person your apprentice?"

Su Yan showed no intention of making a move, but simply asked calmly.

Master Changchun nodded almost imperceptibly and said weakly, "I was about to break through, but I was ambushed by that traitor and trapped here. He also stole the Ancient Spirit Insect and the Spring and Autumn Withering Insect. He tried to use my cultivation as fuel to refine the two insects, make them into Dharma forms, and forge the foundation for my future golden body."

"Young friend, save me! These ancient spirit insects and the Spring and Autumn Withering Insects are my thanks. I will teach you how to refine them."

Master Changchun spoke urgently, eager to seize Su Yan's only chance to live.

Su Yan narrowed his eyes slightly and then said, "Senior, don't worry. I have some experience in controlling alien insects. I will come to save you after I have subdued the alien insects."

"careful!"

Just then, the Spirit Realm Ancient Insect and the Spring and Autumn Withering Insect suddenly unleashed a terrifying power that nearly overturned the inner valley.

Their attack was aimed directly at Su Yan, but Su Yan waved his hand and blocked the energy attack.

At this point, the balance between the two has been completely broken, and if they are not careful, both alien insects may perish together.

"Quick! Quick! The two are out of balance. Use your true energy to balance their power. Use this secret technique to control them."

Master Changchun orally transmitted the secret method without any hesitation or consideration. If the power were to erupt, the first to be hit would not be Su Yan, but Master Changchun.

Su Yan turned around and prepared to channel all his power into the center of the conflict between the two ferocious insects.

Two such alien insects of this level have bloodlines of at least the fifth rank, and their strength has probably reached the peak of the third rank.

Such exotic insects are extremely rare even in the Ten Thousand Mountains, so it's impossible to miss them.

Just then, the vines danced wildly, heading straight for Su Yan. This time, the vines were as black as iron. At the same time, the Changchun Master, who had been sealed on the rock wall, suddenly rushed in and controlled the vines to rush straight for Su Yan.

"Kid, with all that thick flesh and blood of yours, you might as well give it all to me!"
