The Demon Slayer Martial Saint Begins with Insect Refining

Chapter 362 The mantis stalks the cicada
"This guy is so strong."

Su Yan had now fully unleashed the Ferocious Insect Technique, pushing the bloodline of the Wind and Thunder Insect to its limit. He was completely enveloped in the power of wind and thunder, with the wind and thunder wings behind him flapping continuously, carrying the two of them away from the Thousand Wood Mountains at a speed of hundreds of feet in an instant.

However, even at this speed, the Green Vine Tree Dragon behind them was still in hot pursuit, with a distance of less than one or two hundred feet.

The Green Vine Tree Dragon is at least a late-stage fourth-order cultivator, equivalent to the seventh or eighth level of the Dharma Aspect realm. Its relentless pursuit has already startled many people on the ground.

Su Yan remained calm and continued to increase his speed.

The green vine dragon behind them drew ever closer, its eyes gleaming with ferocity.

If we don't establish our authority today, everyone will think that the Thousand Tree Mountains are easy to bully in the future, and then it will be Old Tree Dragon and his group that will be in danger.

Flying leaves lock the sky!

Countless emerald-like leaves swept in, instantly covering a distance of a hundred feet, heading straight for Su Yan and Long Qiushui.

Su Yan shifted his body, dodging the attack of the flying leaf. He turned around and pointed, a golden light flashed, and the Star-Picking Hand transformed into fingers, annihilating the flying leaf.

"A mere third level of Dharma form, yet he possesses some skill."

Qing Teng Shulong was furious. He looked down on Su Yan's cultivation level and despised the previous Wanren Gengjin Beast even more. If it weren't for his greed for a mid-stage fourth-order wild beast, how could he have been ambushed to this extent?

Su Yan flew more and more rapidly, and soon they had crossed the Thousand Trees Mountain Range and arrived at the edge of the Golden Sands.

At this moment, Long Qiushui's eyes flashed with white light. With a wave of his hand, he condensed a white beam about ten feet long, which instantly shot towards the Green Vine Tree Dragon.

Frost like a dragon, the Green Vine Tree Dragon was suddenly attacked, and immediately rolled over, trying to dodge the attack.

However, at that moment, the spirit-sealing talisman hidden within the white light exploded instantly, transforming into a Xuanbing white python, which blocked its path with endless chill.

dead!
Enraged, the Green Vine Tree Dragon slammed its claw into the spirit seal, sending it flying. Even the strongest ice could not withstand its furious attack.

A top-grade third-tier spirit-sealing talisman was directly destroyed by his powerful attack. It was equivalent to solid ice at the Dharma Aspect Realm, which was also destroyed in an instant.

The two distanced themselves from Qing Teng Shulong and were about to step into the Golden Sands.

Just then, the Green Vine Tree Dragon suddenly solidified its aura and instantly transformed into two phantoms, appearing suddenly in front of Su Yan as if it had been teleported.

"I've chased you for so long, now you'll leave your life behind."

Without saying a word, he immediately attacked, his giant claw sweeping across like a withered branch of a towering tree.

Su Yan was blocked from both sides, especially the one in front of him, which was the true form of the Green Vine Tree Dragon. Its aura was so solid that it pressed down on him like a mountain.

"Not necessarily."

However, Su Yan laughed. Suddenly, a buzzing sound rang out, as if a huge hole had been squeezed open in the ground. Countless Fiend Bees and Blood Bees soared into the sky from the sandbar, numbering in the hundreds of thousands in an instant.

Qing Teng Shulong was startled. Everywhere he looked was blood red, with a buzzing sound like thousands of blades scraping against each other, and the pervasive baleful aura further obstructed his vision.

"Go away!"

He quickened his attack, and the giant claw of the heavens fell, instantly annihilating tens of thousands of evil bees and blood bees, heading straight for Su Yan's main body.

However, with this grab, Su Yan and Long Qiushui's figures were like bubbles, completely pierced and disappeared.

boom!
Qing Teng Shulong then realized that the two people in front of him had become illusions at some point.

Deceiving too much!

Deceiving too much!

Countless vines spread out from his body, attacking the surrounding area. He was like a madman, but no matter how the vines swept across, they could only eliminate all the evil bees.

As for Su Yan, he had already disappeared.

……

The endless yellow sand, the wind and sand flying.

Su Yan and Long Qiushui suddenly appeared in the Golden Sands. The powerful gravity pressed down on them, and the flow of true essence in their bodies increased more than usual.

Both of them had exhausted a lot of their true energy, but fortunately the old tree dragon did not find their traces, and they finally escaped its pursuit.

The reason they were able to escape was due to Su Yan's caution; he hid all the blood bees and evil bees of the Divine Fiend Locust on the edge of the Golden Sandbar, taking advantage of its unique terrain.

The sudden attack of the Fiend Bees obscured the view, the Moon-Eating Insects created illusions, and the Ancient Spirit Insects briefly tore through space, along with the wind and thunder power of the Wind and Thunder Insects, allowed them to move three thousand feet in an instant.

"Let's find a place to recover first."

Long Qiushui nodded, and Su Yan summoned the Star Shadow Demon Spider. The two sat on the Star Shadow Demon Spider, whose legs moved quickly, carrying them deeper into the Golden Sands.

Within the Golden Sands, there are special geological veins and powers. The higher one flies, the greater the energy consumption. Moreover, flying in the vast Gobi Desert is undoubtedly a very eye-catching activity.

Su Yan did not choose to fly, but instead used the Star Shadow Spider to travel.

The two rode the Star Shadow Spider for about three hundred miles before stopping in a particularly secluded part of the Gobi Desert.

Amidst the yellow sand, a Gobi valley appeared, with towering yellow stones standing sideways like giants in the sand, their overlapping forms creating an entrance about forty or fifty meters wide.

The two entered, and thanks to the cover provided by the Yellowstone, the sandstorm was much less intense.

After resting for a while, Long Qiushui lit a fire and set up a simple formation around it.

“I will protect you here. You should first transform the ferocious insect. Once the tomb in the chaotic rocky mountain is opened, even the Golden Sands may not be safe.”

"clear"

Su Yan nodded. As he fled, he caught a glimpse of the situation on the Golden Sands. He was in a hurry and caught sight of two ambushes and ambushes, which was quite dangerous.

The Devouring Soldier Netherworld was summoned by Su Yan, and its injuries were immediately apparent. How could it not be injured after withstanding the attacks of three fourth-tier calamity beasts?
Su Yan took out the three Seven-Star Rejuvenation Pills he had previously refined and gave them all to the Devouring Soldier Netherworld.

After Devouring the Soldier Netherworld, he placed several spiritual weapons he had previously seized on the battlefield of the Eastern Wilderness Prefecture in front of the Devouring Soldier Netherworld, allowing it to devour them and repair its body.

Su Yan also released other ferocious insects. Apart from the enormous Molten Mountain Scorpion, the Divine Fiend Locust and Star Shadow Spider, which were easy to hide, became the core of guarding the valley.

Strands of shadowy threads emerged from the Star Shadow Spider's mouth, then continued to penetrate deeper into the ground, forming a dense spiderweb beneath the Golden Sands, acting like radar to detect any possible movements within a hundred miles.

The Divine Fiend Locust activated its innate ability, transforming its body into fiendish bees and scattering into the Golden Sands.

After doing all this, Su Yan took out the Ten Thousand Insect Suppressing Tower, which contained the Ten Thousand Blade Gengjin Beast that Su Yan had been suppressing.

At this moment, the Thousand-Blade Gengjin Beast became even more weak. It had already been severely injured by Su Yan, and now it was sealed by a hundred chains of prison-suppressing chains behind it. Its power was constantly suppressed by the Prison-Suppressing Tower, and its head could hardly stand up.

"Let me go... I'm willing to exchange my life for the news of a sixth-tier Golden Origin Sacred Fruit. Didn't you want your pet beasts to break through? That thing is even more precious..."

At this moment, the Thousand-Blade Gengjin Beast finally understood why this person had schemed against it.

If he so desperately craved the bloodline of the Devouring Soldier Moth, then that bloodline might very well be a powerful tonic for the Devouring Soldier Moth. Now that he was a prisoner, he could only offer his greatest value in exchange for his life.

"A sixth-tier sacred fruit. If you had this, you would still be stuck at the mid-fourth tier."

Su Yan glanced at him, his tone calm.

Seeing his expression, the Thousand-Blade Gengjin Beast felt a glimmer of hope; at least the person before it cared about this news.

"I don't have it, but I know where I can get it, and I guarantee I can get it."

"What you're saying puts me in a difficult position."

The Myriad-Blade Gengjin Beast immediately said, "Fellow Daoist, you have formed a death pact with me, so you can know that I dare not lie. The sixth-tier Golden Origin Sacred Fruit is located in the Forbidden Land of Burial Mountain within the Great Tomb of Chaotic Stone Mountain. Only pure metal-type origin can summon it. I encountered it there many years ago, but it was not yet ripe. Now it should be almost ripe. As long as you come with me, I can help you obtain it..."

"no need."

Su Yan raised his eyes slightly and said, "If you can't get it, then don't talk about it. You might as well wait to die."

As the words fell, the Thousand-Blade Gengjin Beast, having lost all its trump cards, threatened sharply, "Fellow Daoist, show mercy where you can! If you kill me, the Azure Vine Tree Dragon will not let you off, and you will not be allowed to leave Xizhou Prefecture. I am..."

Before he could finish speaking, a muffled thud came from inside the Myriad Blades Gengjin Beast, and its soul vanished instantly.

Su Yan was startled and reached out to look. His face showed a look of horror. It turned out that a restriction had been placed inside the body of the Thousand Blade Gengjin Beast, and now the restriction was broken.

"what happened?"

Long Qiushui noticed something was wrong and immediately stepped forward, her delicate brows furrowed slightly.

"The Thousand-Blade Gengjin Beast is no ordinary wild beast; it's a wild beast that has been placed under a restriction by someone else. It also has someone behind it, and..."

Su Yan extracted a green liquid resembling ink from the body of the Ten Thousand Blade Gengjin Beast, and a foul stench immediately wafted out.

This smell is too familiar. In the Eastern Wilderness Prefecture, Su Yan had personally slaughtered too many poisonous corpses, and he had also seized countless Poison Man Sect classics in the Azure Medicine Valley.

This situation, combined with the information from the classic texts in his mind, created a synergy between the two...

"The Poison Corpse Forbidden Curse is a servant beast of the Poison Man Sect."

Su Yan's eyes darkened, and he said, "Let's find another place. Although the Poison Corpse Forbidden Curse cannot be tracked, I'm afraid some members of the Poison Man Sect in Xizhou Prefecture will sense something is wrong, and it will be troublesome if they come after us."

Out of caution, Su Yan and Long Qiushui could only collect the corpse of the Ten Thousand Blade Gengjin Beast and then immediately leave the Gobi Valley.

The two traveled another hundred miles in the opposite direction of the Thousand Trees Mountains, turning back and around several times, before finally settling down again in a new, secluded sand valley.

"almost."

At this moment, the Devouring Soldier Moth, which was hiding in the Insect Realm, had recovered from its injuries.

Su Yan threw out the corpse of the Thousand-Blade Gengjin Beast. At this moment, the Devouring Soldier Youming immediately stepped forward to devour it. Its body was like a huge black hole, and in an instant, it swallowed the huge body of the Thousand-Blade Gengjin Beast.

A crimson light emanated from the cauldron of ferocious insects within the body and immediately entered the Devouring Soldier Moth's body. The crimson light gradually formed a huge cocoon, and the power of transformation was constantly changing the Devouring Soldier Moth's body...

As time passed, the Devouring Soldier Netherworld's bloodline was already powerful enough, and now, after another transformation, its bloodline alone has probably reached the top level of the fifth rank.

Its potential is so great that even a Golden Body Realm expert in the Desolate Martial World would probably have to admit it has the potential to become a Demon Saint.

However, such a transformation cannot be accomplished in a day or two.

Unbeknownst to the two, the great tomb of the chaotic rock mountain, hidden deep within the Golden Sands and constantly drifting in the spatial interlayer created after the great battle of the Martial Saints, had suddenly descended upon the depths of the Golden Sands.

The jumbled rocks form a mountain, over three thousand feet high, reaching straight into the clouds at a glance, with the rocks floating around like stars.

The mountains rise one after another, and small spaces formed by fragments of secret realms are nested together. What looks like a mountain gate may lead you into a medicinal garden from ten thousand years ago...

This rocky mountain, amidst the golden world of the Golden Sands, is like an incomparably conspicuous piece of black gold, attracting all martial artists above the Danqiao realm to flock to it like mad bees and butterflies.

If one could obtain the opportunity to become a Martial Saint, then who would dare say they couldn't become the next Martial Saint?

Wave after wave of people headed toward the Great Tomb of Chaotic Rock Mountain, and the carnage gradually spread throughout the entire Golden Sands.

Some people ventured into the mountains to seize treasures, while others committed murder and looting in the Golden Sands.

In the Thousand Trees Mountains, a group of seven people, dressed in gray robes to conceal their faces, stood on the outer edge of the mountains.

"That old tree dragon has gone mad! No one in the Dharma Aspect Realm is allowed to enter the Thousand Wood Mountain Range. Could it be that he killed the Myriad Blade Geng Metal Beast?"

"not necessarily"

The burly man at the head of the group had a deep look in his eyes: "Although the Thousand-Blade Gengjin Beast made a move here, the aura of the Poisonous Corpse Curse is not here. Someone else killed it."

The burly man wore a dark blue-green ghost mask, making it impossible to discern his expression.

He looked up into the depths of the Thousand Trees Mountains and said in a hoarse voice, "Let's enter the forest and take care of that matter at the same time."

Having said that, he took a step forward, his aura completely undisguised, and instantly entered the Thousand Wood Mountains.

"court death!"

A furious voice rang out, and thousands upon thousands of vines appeared in mid-air, blotting out the sky and heading straight for them, threatening to kill the seven people instantly.

However, the burly man at the head of the group had a vicious, dark blue-green dragon with a rotten head—the Corrupting Heart Poison Dragon—appear behind him. It devoured and corrupted all the vines in one gulp, causing them to fall from mid-air.

"Rotten Heart Demon, what do you want to do?"

The figure of the Green Vine Tree Dragon appeared, its aura heavy and its tone full of apprehension.

Who killed the Thousand-Blade Gengjin Beast?

"It's one of yours?!"

Green Vine Tree Dragon was shocked, but the Corrupt Heart Demon remained unfazed and coldly asked, "I will only ask you a second time. If you answer, then consider me as if I never came today."

"you……"

Green Vine Tree Dragon was unwilling, but the seven people behind the Corrupt Heart Demon had already surrounded him.

At this moment, there were only four fourth-tier calamity beasts in the Thousand Wood Mountains, including him. Even if they fought head-on, they would be at a disadvantage.

"I don't know. That guy is slippery. He hid in the Golden Sands and escaped."

Qing Teng Shulong said coldly, "If you want to cause trouble, you can go find him. If you kill him, don't forget to congratulate me."

"Golden Sandbar..."

The Corrupt Old Demon's eyes flickered slightly, then he said, "Let's go."
