The Demon Slayer Martial Saint Begins with Insect Refining

Chapter 341 Attack
On the Black Whale Dragon Boat, Su Yan returned from Li Xuanyang's place and placed the three dragon corpses directly in the room.

He waved his hand and released the Dragon-Eating Worms. The three dragon corpses, which still had some life left, immediately became agitated and restless after sensing the power of the Dragon-Eating Worms.

The Dragon-Eating Worm let out a low hiss, suppressing the power that had been holding back the three-headed dragon corpse. Under Su Yan's command, it flew up and devoured the dragon corpse in its mouth.

In less than an hour, the three-headed dragon corpse was completely devoured by the dragon-eating worms, and the power of the dragon-eating worms increased dramatically.

【Eating Dragon Beetle 300/400 (Mature Stage)】

"Mid-stage fourth tier, is that equivalent to the combat power of a fourth-level Dharma Aspect Realm cultivator?"

Su Yan's eyes flickered slightly as he thought to himself, "The Dragon-Eating Insect is at the fourth level of the Dharma Aspect, while the Devouring Soldier Netherworld Moth's transformation period is equivalent to the first level of the Dharma Aspect... Now that I have put the Dragon-Eating Insect in the open, the Devouring Soldier Netherworld Moth must transform as soon as possible."

Among the ferocious insects, only the Devouring Dragon Insect and the Soldier-Swallowing Nether Moth have truly crossed the fourth tier.

After their metamorphosis, the Molten Giant Scorpion (growing stage), the Divine Fiend Locust (growing stage), the Star Shadow Demon Spider (growing stage), and the Blood Bone Centipede King (growing stage) have been continuously growing stronger thanks to the large supply of pills from Su Yan, but they have not yet crossed over to the next stage and are only at the edge of the fourth tier.

Admittedly, with his current strength, ordinary Dharma Aspects would not pose a threat to him, but his opponents are not necessarily all Dharma Aspects.

The Devouring Soldier Netherworld requires two transformation materials: one is the Myriad Blade Geng Metal Beast, and the other is the Ten Strands of Dao Soldier Origin.

Neither of these items are ordinary; there is still no news about the former, but the latter is expected to be involved in this great battle.

……

The Black Whale Dragon Boat was extremely fast, and in less than half a day, it had already arrived at the border of the Eastern Wilderness Prefecture.

At this time, the border of Donghuang Prefecture was already guarded by the troops of Chijiang Prefecture. The Third Division penetrated deep into the capital city of Donghuang Prefecture—Dongji City, like a nail driven firmly into the vital area of ​​Donghuang Prefecture.

The Eastern Wilderness Prefecture is in chaos. Sects are not coming out, powerful clans are closing their doors, and bandits have formed armies that have already plundered the northern border of the Eastern Wilderness Prefecture and are spreading southward.

The entire Third Division guarded the key city, which prevented the banditry from sweeping through it. However, the Eastern Wilderness Prefecture has now become a paradise for robbing cultivators.

Roar

The Black Whale Dragon Boat entered the country and headed straight for Dongji City, with howling winds and floating clouds.

Just as they were flying over the towering mountain range of Tieshan County, which resembled an iron curtain, a dark figure suddenly appeared on a solitary peak at the summit of the mountain range.

A terrifying, deep roar echoed from Iron Mountain, black wings blotted out the sky, and towering poisonous gas mixed with green corpse energy rushed straight towards the Black Whale Dragon Boat.

The four Black Whale Dragon Boats, each a thousand meters long, appeared rather small in comparison to the enormous wingspan of the Black Winged Corpse Serpent.

defense!

The helmsman shouted, and dark red arcs of electricity shot out from the Black Whale Dragon Boat. The arcs dispersed at their ends, forming a huge net that enveloped the Black Whale Dragon Boat.

bang
The eerie corpse poison struck the protective shield, instantly shattering the layer that was strong enough to withstand a blow from a Golden Body Realm expert.

"Min Yuluo, you old devil, you actually dare to show your face!"

The Black Whale Dragon Boat nearly suffered a serious injury from the attack, but fortunately, Zhao Wenyuan flew over at that moment and unleashed a sword light that went straight for the Black Winged Corpse Serpent Dharma Image.

Behind him, the thousand-meter-tall Eight Desolate Spirit Deer rose from the ground, golden light transformed into sword energy, and its antlers formed two precious swords that merged into Zhao Wenyuan's hands.

With the Golden Deer Sword in hand, Zhao Wenyuan stared intently at a withered old man in black robes a thousand feet away.

"What a magnificent Eight Desolate Spirit Deer! Your master's Eight Desolate Spirit Deer almost pierced my heart."

The sound, like dry bones rubbing together, sent chills down one's spine.

Zhao Wenyuan said coldly, "Old ghost, today I will use deer antlers to kill you."

Min Yulu sneered: "How arrogant! You can talk after you get out of Tieshan."

The Black-Winged Corpse Serpent unleashed a devastating attack, sending a torrent of corpse poison crashing into the Black Whale Dragon Boat's perimeter.

Zhao Wenyuan's Eight Desolate Spirit Deer Dharma Image scattered golden light, forming a protective light barrier.

The sizzling sound seemed to be corroding everything.

bang
Suddenly, the Black Whale Dragon Boat seemed to be gripped by a giant hand, and it began to fall uncontrollably.

Iron Mountain was torn apart, and a huge pool of poison was exposed from the mountain. White bones were intertwined, forming a burial ground in the belly of the mountain.

The Black Whale Dragon Boat crashed heavily onto the ground, creating a huge crater. Dust billowed up, and thick smoke obscured everyone's view.

A large amount of poisonous fog flowed out of the mountain, instantly blotting out the sky and engulfing the entire area within a hundred miles into this great formation.

The Array of Ten Thousand Corpses!

Zhao Wenyuan recognized the formation at a glance, and he immediately drew his longsword, the sword light attempting to tear through the blockade.

However, the Blackwing Corpse Serpent had already spat out venom, which transformed into a black sword, directly intercepting the sword light.

Save your energy for collecting the corpses of your men.

Min Yulu left behind a cold sentence before his figure completely disappeared into the giant fog of corpse poison.

Low growls rose and fell, and one after another, poisonous corpses and ferocious beasts rushed out from the belly of Iron Mountain, the land, and the caves, turning into a terrifying scene of ten thousand corpses paying homage in the blink of an eye.

The Black Whale Dragon Boat was suppressed by the formation and could not open its defenses. A large number of zombies rushed directly onto the ship's deck.

"Slay the zombie horde and break the formation!"

Enraged, Zhao Wenyuan swung his sword, severing the poisonous corpse in half and turning half of its body into dust.

However, even with such a powerful attack, the poisonous mist released in an instant condensed into the shape of a black-winged corpse serpent, which then entangled itself around the attack.

The Black Winged Corpse Serpent and the Black Whale Dragon Boat were almost intertwined, making it impossible to kill them directly.

Unless he can cleave through all four Black Whale Dragon Boats with a single sword strike.

On the No. 1 Black Whale Dragon Boat, a horde of corpses surged forth, and poisonous fog continuously attacked, attempting to engulf the entire Black Whale Dragon Boat.

"Humph"

A cold snort came, and a red flame flew down from the top floor. It was as red as blood and danced like fire, but it did not have any high temperature.

The flames spun around, instantly clearing away all the poisonous mist.

"Slay the poisonous corpse"

Li Xuanyang's voice came, completely calm. Upon hearing this, the armored soldiers controlling the No. 1 Black Whale Dragon Boat drew their swords with a clang, their true intent condensing into their bodies and becoming one with them. Then they began to continuously attack the poisonous corpses that were trying to climb onto the cabin.

"Virus Killer"

Su Yan gave the order, and by this time Yang Kun and his brothers, Ling Yu'er, Zhai Long and others had already gathered their demon-suppressing guards to guard key positions.

At his command, Zhai Long shouted, "Brothers, form a battle formation and kill them!"

He immediately transformed into the form of a ferocious insect warrior, clad in armor, with his crimson arms standing out prominently.

The Golden Tiger was also in its ferocious insect form, resembling a bizarre insect-tiger. Its true intent plunged into the poisonous corpse, tearing and biting left and right. The poisonous mist sizzled as it eroded the corpse, but when its baleful aura rolled, it eliminated most of the poisonous mist.

His subordinates, the Demon-Suppressing Guards, were all originally from the Sacred Insect Guards, and the techniques they practiced were all derived from Su Yan's Ferocious Insect Technique.

As soon as the true meaning emerged, ferocious insects raged: giant crimson scorpions, armored centipedes, and strange worms exuding blood...

Clad in armor crafted from rock ant black crystal, they were especially ferocious when fighting the poisonous corpses, slashing and tearing apart their defenses.

The poisonous corpses had strong defenses, but Su Yan discovered that most of them were not carefully crafted by the Poison Man Sect. They were dressed in tattered clothes and were more likely not martial artists but mountain people.

Among the poisonous corpses, there are also powerful second- and third-tier poisonous corpses.

However, as soon as they appeared, Zhai Long, Ling Yu'er, and some Saint Insect Guards at the third and fourth levels of True Intent immediately intercepted them. The zombie horde was ferocious, but the defense line of Su Yan's twenty-four divisions was as solid as a rock.

"The poisonous gas and the poisonous corpses continue to merge, and the corpse gas seeps into the ground. As long as the poisonous corpses remain, the formation will not break?"

Su Yan saw through the trick. At this moment, the demon-suppressing guards on the other black whale dragon boats had also begun to strangle the poisonous corpses.

"Then kill them."

Su Yan's gaze was indifferent. With a wave of his hand, the Blood Bone Centipede King appeared, its massive body directly bypassing the Black Whale Dragon Boat and crushing into the horde of poisonous corpses.

Roar!
A cacophony of roars echoed as the poisonous corpses relentlessly attacked the Blood Bone Centipede King like swarms of ants.

However, how could their attacks possibly penetrate the Bloodbone Centipede King's carapace?

The Blood Bone Centipede King opened its mouth wide and swallowed all the poisonous mist. Within a radius of three miles, the poisonous mist dissipated.

"Charge and fight alongside the Blood Bone Centipede King."

With a wave of his hand, Su Yan summoned 100,000 Blood Bees and Fiend Bees, with Divine Fiend Locusts hidden among them. He then led over a thousand Demon-Suppressing Guards into the horde of poisonous corpses, heading straight for the poison pool.

The Blood Bone Centipede King was unstoppable, and the Blood Bees swept like sharp knives. Its demon-suppressing guards relentlessly attacked, and in a short time, it broke through the first poisonous pool in the mountain's belly.

The poisonous pool churned, and a poisonous corpse emerged, its eyes opening to reveal a ghostly emerald light.

Tier 4 Poison Corpse!

The venomous corpse suddenly burst forth, spraying venom everywhere it touched the ground.

The demon-suppressing guards were unable to dodge in time and were instantly pierced by the poison, turning into withered bones and rotten flesh.

The Dragon-Eating Insect flew out, transformed into a dragon corpse, and pounced on the fourth-tier poisonous corpse.

Rumble

The two plunged directly into the poison pool, causing it to tremble and tear open a huge crack.

The entire Corpse-Trapping Array began to shake, with the poison pool and poisonous corpses forming the array's core.

In its current dragon corpse state, covered by layers of dragon scales, its powerful defense and strength prevent the fourth-tier poisonous corpse from breaking free from its arms no matter how much it bites and struggles.

The dragon corpse opened its blood-red maw and, with a tearing bite, devoured large chunks of flesh.

After about twenty rounds, the Dragon-Eating Worm transformed into a Blood-Headed Poison Dragon and swallowed the fourth-tier poison corpse whole.

The poison pool was also destroyed by Su Yan at this time.

The Thousand Corpses Formation shook violently, and the poisonous substance thinned considerably.

Zhao Wenyuan seized the opportunity and cleaved the Black-winged Corpse Serpent in two with a single sword strike. The sword light traveled for miles, tearing apart a corner of the Ten Thousand Corpse Trapping Array.

"Interesting. None of the ferocious insect bloodlines are simple."

On the top floor, Li Xuanyang watched everything that was happening in the trapped formation. The demon-suppressing guards died in battle, but there was not a trace of emotion in his golden eyes.

The only thing he showed was a hint of praise for Su Yan's performance.

In his opinion, only a few geniuses could catch his eye.

Second brother Li Xuanwu, fourth sister Li Yinji...

Although Su Yan is only at the half-step Dharma Aspect stage, his ability to repel insects is unparalleled in the world.

If one were to join his ranks, there might be a chance to take command of the Demon Suppression Guard in the future.

However, the prerequisite is that you have to be obedient.

A glint flashed in Li Xuanyang's eyes as he pondered what the Poison Man Sect was planning during this trip to the Eastern Wilderness Prefecture.

Within the Ten Thousand Corpses Trapping Array, as the poison pools were destroyed one after another, the array was broken, the poisonous mist dissipated, revealing the desolate appearance of the Iron Mountain Range.

Within a hundred miles, the vegetation was withered and lifeless, and the mountain ranges were completely cut off, making it seem like a dead end.

"That old man is ruthless."

Zhao Wenyuan's face was icy cold. Min Yuluo had launched an attack on them at the cost of the spiritual energy and life of the Hundred Mile Mountain Range.

This is a provocation from the Poison Man Sect, a clear show of force.

However, Zhao Wenyuan's concerns were even greater than this.

What abilities does Min Yulu have to know the movements of the Demon Suppression Guards?
Was it an inside man or a local nobleman who leaked the information?

"Pack your things, let's head to Dongji City."

Zhao Wenyuan gave the order in a cold voice, and after a series of attacks, all four Black Whale Dragon Boats were damaged to varying degrees.

However, it did not damage the fundamental structure and can continue to operate.

The casualties of the Demon Suppression Guards have also been tallied: 127 dead and over 200 injured.

Although the number was small, the dignity of the Demon Suppression Guards was thoroughly trampled into the ground.

After setting sail again, Zhao Wenyuan and the other officials of the prefecture were on high alert on the way from the border of the Eastern Wilderness Prefecture to the Eastern Pole City.

However, there were no more high mountains like those in Tieshan County to block the way, and they successfully arrived at Dongji City in just two hours.

The Black Whale Dragon Boat landed outside Dongji City, its massive hull bringing an unimaginable sense of oppression and security.

Inside Dongji City, the people all climbed to the top of the buildings, craning their necks in anticipation, all wanting to see this behemoth-like flying ship.

The city's demon-suppressing guards ordered government officials and city guards to patrol the streets, which finally quelled the riot.

As everyone descended, Xu Yan, the Third Director of the Prefecture, had been waiting for them for a long time. He clasped his hands and said, "Xu Yan greets the First Prince and Prefect Zhao. Colleagues, please proceed to the Prefecture Office."

Li Xuanyang nodded, and the group followed Xu Yan straight to the government office.

At this time, the government office had been requisitioned by the Demon Suppression Guard. Seats were set up in the hall, with Li Xuanyang and Zhao Wenyuan seated on the left and right respectively.

On both sides were the heads of their respective departments, with the Third, Seventh, Nineteenth, Twenty-Fourth, Twenty-Seventh, and Thirtieth Departments seated respectively.

Zhao Wenyuan asked, "Xu Yan, what is the current situation in Donghuang Prefecture?"

Upon hearing the question, Xu Yan immediately replied, "I was ordered to guard the border of the Eastern Wilderness Prefecture to prevent the remnants of the Poison Man Sect from infiltrating. Initially, there was no trouble, but half a month ago, a group of remnants of the Poison Man Sect suddenly came down the Red River, broke through the pass in their black boat, and rushed into the Eastern Wilderness Prefecture. Two of my Danqiao commanders were killed in action."

Upon hearing this, everyone's hearts skipped a beat: "The person was left behind?"

"More than half were killed, but the gifts were not stopped."

"what?"

"Dragon Corpse"

Xu Yan said, "A demon-suppressing guard spotted a special coffin, but did not stop it. After the coffin entered the pass, I immediately entered Dongji City, preparing to seal it off and conduct an investigation, but unexpectedly, Donghuang Prefecture was thrown into chaos."

Xu Yan's face was grim. The Demon Suppression Guards had entered Donghuang Prefecture, and someone immediately spread the word that they were going to trample the Jianghu and turn Donghuang Prefecture into a second Lingnan Prefecture.

Such rumors naturally made everyone in the martial arts world feel uneasy.

Xu Yan was already difficult to deal with, let alone the sudden outbreak of banditry that led to the capture of three cities and the current state of affairs.

Anyone with eyes can see that someone is fanning the flames.
