The Demon Slayer Martial Saint Begins with Insect Refining

Chapter 449 Sweeping Robbery
The night was dark and the wind was strong, with snow howling.

The weather in the Frozen Lands changes so quickly that in a short time, Red Dragon City was covered with snow as thick as a calf.

Even martial artists would be unwilling to venture out in the dead of night under such severe snow.

Red Dragon City was quiet, except for a dark shadow tonight.

Su Yan took a step forward and headed straight for the City Lord's Mansion.

After several days of investigation by the Divine Fiend Bees, he had figured out the layout of the City Lord's Mansion and even the location of the restrictions.

He strolled in, and when he reached the very heart of the place, he still hadn't found anything.

The city lord's mansion was surrounded by towering walls and consisted of three large courtyards, one in front, one in the middle, and one in the back. Su Yan arrived at the last courtyard and finally stopped.

"Who are you, daring to infiltrate this place?!"

Ashiou, holding the Blood Dragon Blade, stood blocking the courtyard entrance with a sinister expression. His aura was overwhelming, and although his voice was not loud, he used his true energy to spread it throughout the entire Red Dragon City.

However, when the sound reached the edge of the courtyard, it was as if it had hit a soundproof wall, disappearing without a trace, like a clay ox sinking into water.

The sound couldn't travel out. His divine sense swept over it, and his face turned even more ashen. It was as if nine evil dragons had coiled and sealed off the entire courtyard, and an invisible barrier completely isolated the courtyard from Red Dragon City.

No, it not only encompassed the courtyard, but also the Red Dragon Secret Realm beneath it.

This guy came for the Red Dragon Tribe's treasures.

The Red Dragon Secret Realm contains the vast majority of the tribe's rare and precious materials, as well as its divine weapons.

This is why the clan leader personally oversees the city lord's mansion. The mansion is filled with layers of formations and shamanic restrictions. If an ordinary Golden Body Realm martial artist wants to come here, the formations will be activated the moment they step into the mansion, and the experts in the city will know about it.

However, neither the First Elder Ashiti nor the Second Elder Ashitu have been seen at all.

'Danger'

The enemy came prepared, and Ashio felt as if he had fallen into a deep, cold abyss.

"Hand over the token to the treasure vault, and I may spare the lives of your clan's other warriors."

Su Yan wore a bronze ghost mask, and his voice had long since become hoarse, like a scraped piece of iron, completely different from his original appearance.

Ashiou coldly cursed, "You coward who dares not show your face, you think you can rob my Red Dragon Tribe?"

Having said that, he emitted a crimson light, and a crimson dragon roamed around him, summoning his crimson dragon dharma form.

The dragon's roar resounded throughout the heavens and earth, but it was blocked in this courtyard.

"Red Dragon Formation!"

Ashijiu gripped the command token and forcibly activated the grand formation of the entire Red Dragon City.

However, before he could make a move, a terrifying cold current had already spread to his hands, instantly freezing his left arm that held the command token.

when? !

The spellcasting was interrupted instantly, and he lost all feeling in his left arm.

Ashio instinctively wanted to protect his left hand, so he activated his true energy to try and break the ice seal.

However, the cold air inside the cold bee bag kept pouring out, and instead of dispelling the terrifying ice seal, his true essence seemed to be spreading towards him.

Transform into a dragon!

Forced into a corner, Ashijiu immediately threw away his natal weapon, the Blood Dragon Blade, and merged his golden body into it, transforming it into a ferocious blood dragon.

Blood Dragon's Claw was still frozen, but the freezing process had finally slowed down considerably.

"The evolution time is still short, and the Extreme Cold Hell Worm is still lacking in foundation."

The Extreme Cold Hell Worm bloodline is slightly stronger than the Extreme Ice Ancient Worm, being a fourth-tier high-grade bloodline. However, due to the short time since its breakthrough, it has not yet converted its talent into strength, thus its strength is only at the mid-fourth tier.

Therefore, the attack unleashed by the Frost Bee Bags it mobilized could not be considered too strong.

If it were actually used to deal with the current Ashigurugi, it wouldn't achieve the desired effect at all.

The reason why Ash Vulture was instantly frozen was fundamentally due to Su Yan's Ten Thousand Insects Suppressing Prison Tower.

Within the Tower of Ten Thousand Insects, the first level is the Extreme Cold Hell, which combines the essence of the Frost Bee Bag, the Ice Mountain Hell of the Hell God Scroll, and the essence of the Extreme Cold Hell Insects to create extreme cold power.

Only with Su Yan's current strength at the seventh level of the Golden Body Realm was he able to freeze Ash Vulture instantly.

Ash Vulture, transformed into a blood dragon, looked down from above, its gaping maw spewing out countless rays of blood-red light that rushed straight at Su Yan's body, attempting to shatter the chilling aura.

But the next moment, Su Yan waved his hand lightly, and using the Frost Bee Bag as a channel, a large number of Ice-Melting Insects surged out from the Extreme Cold Hell. The Extreme Cold Hell Insects took the lead, and at this time, the Nine Fiends Devouring God Insects were hidden in the bee swarm, and there were also some Fiends that had turned into a dark blue color in the Ice-Melting Insect swarm.

The cold air and malevolent energy mingled together, instantly freezing the entire courtyard.

"Impossible!!! You're the Insect Sacrifice..."

Before Ashio could finish speaking, he was transformed into an ice sculpture, his life force rapidly fading away.

When the terrifying source of malevolent energy invaded his body, he had no chance to resist.

As his true essence dissipated and his golden body collapsed, Ashiou's astonished expression remained forever on his aged face.

The token fell to the ground with a clatter and was caught in Su Yan's hand.

Su Yan waved his hand to summon the ancient spirit insect, held the command token, and directly entered the secret realm of the Red Dragon Tribe...

The treasures of the Red Dragon Tribe will not all end up with Ashju, but there is no doubt that this place has the largest quantity of rare and precious materials and divine weapons.

Su Yan swept everything away, and even the Red Dragon Secret Realm itself was consumed by the ancient spirit insects, who devoured its essence.

Although the ancient insect of the spirit realm has entered the metamorphosis period, it does not mean that the Devouring Secret Realm cannot enhance its power.

"Clan leader!"

"Enemy attack!"

When trouble broke out in the secret realm, the First Elder Ashiti and the Second Elder Ashitu realized something was wrong and rushed towards the City Lord's Mansion like madmen.

The Nine Dragons Imprisoning Demon Cover blocked their path, and the two attacked frantically, which also alerted Su Yan, who was still in the secret realm.

"Are you here?"

With a wave of his hand, Su Yan put away the ancient spirit insect. At this time, one-third of the Blood Dragon Secret Realm's origin had been extracted, and large areas of space were collapsing.

Su Yan put away the Demon-Imprisoning Nine Dragons Cover, and the enraged Ashiti and Ashitu charged straight into the core of the City Lord's Mansion.

However, when they saw the completely lifeless Ashiou, their hearts skipped a beat, and a bad premonition immediately enveloped them.

Buzz

Countless ice-melting insects charged forward. The two used protective techniques, but Ashitu reacted too slowly. Almost instantly, a wisp of evil energy from the Nine Fiends Devouring God Insects hidden in the cold wave penetrated his body.

My body stiffened, and then I was completely engulfed by the cold wave.

Ashiti, who was standing to the side, withstood the cold wave, but his protective armor shattered instantly, and most of his body was frozen.

"Ice-melting worm...you are the successor of the Insect Sacrifice Martial Saint?!" A figure was moving away from the swarm of insects. The heavily injured Ashiti roared with all his might, but Su Yan had no time to pay attention to his question.

The warriors of the Red Dragon Tribe finally arrived and rushed forward to rescue Ashiti.

Of the three Golden Body Realm elders, two were dead and one was injured. The secret realm was destroyed. The Red Dragon Tribe was beyond devastated.

"Go quickly and inform Ashim!"

The Red Dragon Tribe was in a chaotic state, frantically assigning tasks while simultaneously guarding against a powerful enemy like Su Yan launching a surprise attack, as well as the possibility of surrounding tribes taking the opportunity to rebel.

However, they were unaware that Su Yan had already appeared on Balang Peak.

Balang Peak had long been devoured by the giant mountain worm, and now only a few spiritual veins remained on the outermost layer.

As soon as Su Yan arrived, the giant mountain worm immediately devoured the last part.

The entire Balang Peak began to collapse. As the mountain collapsed, terrifying avalanches roared in, burying one stronghold after another.

The martial artists at the Danqiao Realm were able to react and rush out of the stronghold, but none of the martial artists at the True Intent Realm or below were able to escape.

All the powerful warriors from the Red Dragon Tribe, Frost Wolf Tribe, and Uyghur Tribe out of their outposts rushed out, disheveled and furious, like wild beasts wanting to tear people apart.

"who is it?!!"

The giant mountain worm's terrifying body was fully exposed, and the terrifying power of a fifth-tier beast king on that massive body sent chills down one's spine.

Although it is still in the transformation period, after completing the absorption of a fifth-order spiritual vein, the giant mountain worm has already established itself at the fifth order.

Su Yan stood atop the giant mountain worm, and the power of the extreme cold hell flowed into the worm's body, making it look like a giant ice beast.

Experts from the Red Dragon, Uyghur, and Frost Wolf tribes blocked Su Yan's path.

A murderous intent permeated the air. The three families had expended countless manpower and resources in their struggle for the fifth-order spiritual vein, only to have it all destroyed by outsiders who had reaped the benefits. How could they possibly swallow this insult?

"Who asked you to come?"

Tuoba Hanyu, the Golden Body Realm elder of the Frost Wolf Tribe, questioned in a cold voice.

Su Yan merely raised his eyes slightly: "Kill him."

The giant mountain worm opened its enormous mandibles and unleashed a terrifying beam of light, blasting Tuoba Hanyu away.

Tuoba Hanyu was instantly injured, and two Golden Body Realm warriors from the Red Dragon Tribe and the Uyghur Tribe attacked.

However, before they could even reach Su Yan, they were engulfed by swarms of ice-melting insects and divine bees, and in an instant, they were turned into ice sculptures and fell to the ground, their bodies shattered. None of the Danqiao Realm and Dharma Aspect Realm warriors behind them escaped unscathed.

"The next tribe."

Su Yan then controlled the giant mountain worm and headed straight for the Frost Wolf tribe.

The Frostwolf tribe is no weaker than the Red Dragon tribe, and they have seven or eight Golden Body Realm experts on their side.

But at this very moment, half of the experts followed Ashimu closely, wanting to get a share of the spoils in the secret realm of the Insect Sacrifice Martial Saint.

The remaining forces were also divided up to compete for the fifth-order spiritual vein of Balang Peak.

There are only four Golden Body Realm experts left in the Frostwolf Tribe.

Su Yan first went directly up their Wolf God Peak. The giant mountain worm made no attempt to hide its power, devouring the mountain like a whale sucking its blood, and also absorbing the fifth-order spiritual vein.

The Frostwolf tribe chief and the four elders were alarmed and wanted to stop Su Yan.

Unexpectedly, the ice-melting insect swarm was immediately suppressed by Su Yan under the terrifying cold current, resulting in two deaths and two injuries, who desperately fled.

Frostwolf City eventually became Su Yan's backyard. He directly entered the city and seized all the rare and precious treasures, including the Illusion Moon Begonia.

The branches of the Illusion Moon Begonia are full and the petals are layered, numbering no less than a thousand. They are as crystal clear as glass, yet as thin as cicada wings. The light flows and changes from time to time. Even when picked, they are still like works of art.

Su Yan could sense the powerful illusionary ability of the Illusionary Moon Begonia, which also contained a moon essence comparable to that of a Golden Body Realm cultivator.

He took out the Moon-Eating Insect, which was already somewhat impatient when it sensed the Illusionary Moon Begonia.

Su Yan had obtained the Moon-Eating Insects from Bi Qingman for several years. Although he had been feeding them with pills, his luck was not as good as that of the Giant Flame God Scorpion and the others, so his progress was a little slower.

However, it has a good foundation. It was already a fourth-order bloodline and has not yet transformed. With continuous growth, it has reached the peak of the fourth order.

"Transform!"

Su Yan signaled the Moon-Eating Worm to begin devouring the Illusionary Moon Begonia. The Moon-Eating Worm flashed and landed on the Illusionary Moon Begonia.

Its mouthparts opened, and streams of brilliant, colorful moonlight-like essence were continuously devoured by it.

The silvery-white body of the Moon-Eating Insect is also changing, its colors shifting and changing, which is particularly captivating.

Su Yan waited quietly for three days. Then, the Ferocious Insect Cauldron released the power of the Ferocious Insects, and the Moon-Eating Insect formed a cocoon under the power of the Ferocious Insects.

Four more days passed, and the cocoon cracked and fissures appeared. A round, ferocious insect covered with mysterious patterns broke out of the cocoon and appeared before Su Yan.

The powerful aura fluctuated and was extremely subtle, as if the supernatural powers themselves had undergone earth-shattering changes during this transformation.

Su Yan could sense that the spiritual power centered on this ferocious insect was rapidly spreading, almost instantly enveloping the entire mountain range and suppressing the wild beasts within it.

[The Moon-Eating Worm successfully devoured the molted creature and transformed into the Dream-Eating Moon God Worm.]

"A fifth-tier superior bloodline, with a spirit as the sea, transforming into the moon to devour dreams..."

As Su Yan sensed the Dream-Devouring Moon God Worm's talent, his eyes grew even brighter.

Powerful, incredibly powerful.

It wasn't an absolute dominance in strength, but a complete transformation in mental talent.

If the Moon-Eating Insect uses mental power to attack, it is a ferocious insect that is feared for its ability to interfere with the enemy's perception.

The Dream-Eating Moon God Worm has completely integrated into the spiritual world. It can construct a dream world of spiritual composition, just like a domain, creating illusions, isolating perception, and devouring the scattered spiritual power of everyone in the world.

It can release dreams, feeding on people's dreams and mental energy. If it so desires, it can pull a city with millions of people into its dreams in a short period of time.

Such terrifying talent undoubtedly greatly enhanced Su Yan's abilities.

"Devouring dreams, attacking the spiritual realm—these abilities are remarkably similar to the essence of the Hell of Sins. If they were to merge, the Dream-Devouring Moon God Worm could become the ferocious insect of the fifth level."

Su Yan had some ideas in his mind. Whether it was a ferocious insect or a human, after the fifth level, it was more about comprehending, going towards the origin, and relying on the power of rules.

To further enhance the strength of the Dream-Eating Moon God Worm, it feeds on the spirit of martial artists.

Su Yan glanced at the giant mountain worm that had already devoured Wolf God Peak, his eyes narrowing slightly: "Two spiritual veins already. The giant mountain worm's strength is already at the mid-stage of the fifth rank. Once it finishes devouring the third fifth-rank spiritual vein, it will at least have the strength of the late-stage of the fifth rank. It can then be brought out openly from the Insect Sacrifice Martial Saint Secret Realm."

Since he was going to pretend to be the successor of the Insect Sacrifice Martial Saint and cause trouble in the Northern Barbarians, Su Yan would naturally not easily use the previous ferocious insects.

The Extreme Cold Hell Insect, Giant Mountain Insect, Spirit Realm Ancient Insect, and Spring and Autumn Withering and Flourishing Insect are all excellent helpers.

[Tier 5 Insect Lord: 792311/1000000]

"We're still short about 210,000 experience points. I don't know if the Giant Mountain Worms will be enough to level up after they molt. Let's go to the Uyghur tribe."
