Dual cultivation makes you stronger, everyone else is a prodigy, and I'm the only one slacking

The two quietly crept down, following the three members of the Wen family at a distance of about a hundred paces.

The cave was very deep, but not dark. Phosphorescent powder floated on the cave walls, and moths would occasionally hover around it.

Not all the moths went out to absorb the moonlight. The moths that remained here were easily killed by the three people in front, and the ground was littered with moth corpses.

After walking for a while, Bai Rongling stopped again.

Yu Luoning was puzzled and asked him telepathically, "What's wrong?"

Bai Rongling said, "Moths have the power to bewitch and confuse. Eat this; it's a pill specifically designed to prevent bewitching techniques from invading your mind."

Yu Luoning thanked him softly and swallowed the Soul-Avoiding Elixir he offered.

The two then maintained their distance and remained hidden in the shadows.

When they followed them deeper into the cave, a huge, dark cavern suddenly appeared before them, with a flat stone platform in the center. On the platform rested a gigantic humanoid moth demon.

The moth demon has two pairs of wings, one pair of forewings and one pair of hindwings.

Its wings are intricate and beautiful, and its body is covered with dark golden light patterns.

This moth demon had previously transformed into human form, and its slender and beautiful human silhouette could be faintly seen.

Yu Luoning couldn't help but marvel inwardly; he was actually a handsome moth demon.

If I hadn't seen Bai Rongling's true face, I might have been truly bewitched by this beautiful moth demon.

Bai Rongling looked at her and scoffed, "What, are you falling for her again?"

Yu Luoning opened her eyes wide and looked at him. "I... am I really that lecherous in your eyes?"

Bai Rongling sneered.

Yu Luoning retorted, "I just thought he was good-looking, so what? Everyone likes good-looking things, that's normal, okay?"

Bai Rongling gave a faint "hmm".

Yu Luoning pressed further, "What does 'um' mean?"

"It doesn't mean anything."

Yu Luoning stared at him. "Do you think you're better looking than him?"

Yu Luoning: ...

Yu Luoning was speechless. She glanced at the moth demon, then at Bai Rongling beside her who was half-veiled, and recalled Bai Rongling's stunning appearance when she took off her veil earlier. In the end, she had to admit it.

"Okay, you are definitely prettier."

Bai Rongling's eyebrows twitched slightly. "Only a little?"

Yu Luoning was completely speechless, thinking to herself, "This person is far too narcissistic."

Just then, a sound came from the three people in front. Yu Luoning and Bai Rongling stopped moving. Fortunately, they were covered by a white light of concealment magic and were not exposed.

One of them suddenly stopped and said, "Wait."

My companion asked, "What's wrong?"

The man turned and looked towards the dark cave passage, in the direction of Yu Luoning and the other person, and said, "I have a feeling that something is following us."

Yu Luoning's heart tightened, but Bai Rongling didn't even blink.

The Bai family has a long history of research in concealment techniques, so he has absolute confidence in his family's techniques.

At this moment, the elder of the Wen family also scanned the area with his divine sense, but found nothing. He then snorted coldly, "It's just a faint glow from a moon moth in the cave, nothing to be surprised about. Besides, there are three of us Nascent Soul cultivators here. Are we afraid of a few tiny insects hiding in the shadows?"

The three stopped paying attention to what was behind them and turned their gaze to the moth demon on the central platform of the cave.

At this moment, one person's "Opportunity-Seeking Compass" began to vibrate wildly.

He whispered to the two people beside him, "Found it. Look at the moth demon's chest, it's phoenix bone."

The three of us worked together to kill him. We'll discuss how to distribute the Phoenix Bones after we get out. What do you two think?

"Okay, I'll listen to you, older brother."

Before the words were even finished, the three of them simultaneously cast spells, setting up a barrier in an attempt to trap the moth demon.

At this moment, the half-human, half-demon that was dormant on the platform opened its green eyes, with a string of tiny pupils in the center of its pupils.

Seemingly disturbed from his peaceful slumber, his face showed a mixture of impatience and bewilderment upon waking.

"It's so...noisy."

His speech was not fluent, but that did not prevent others from understanding him.

After speaking, his gaze fell on the three Wen family cultivators, and he tilted his head as he looked at the compasses in their hands.

The next moment, the three members of the Wen family attacked him together.

Two golden rays shot out from the Moth Demon King's eerie green pupils.

The three of them rose into the air, and a blazing light shot out from their palms, merging into a dazzling beam of light.

The two forces collided in mid-air with a loud bang, and the violent shock almost caused the entire cave to collapse.

Yu Luoning, who was standing to the side, gasped.

Both sides are incredibly strong.

However, she hoped that the Moth King would win.

Although this moth demon king looked thin and weak, it exuded a majestic kingly aura. It was able to withstand three Nascent Soul cultivators on its own for so long despite their fierce attacks.

Before long, golden light spread everywhere, illuminating the entire cave so brightly that it was dazzling and blinding. Various spells were everywhere.

"How dare a mere insect be so presumptuous?" The elder of the Wen family scoffed and summoned a precious mirror.

Runes flickered in the mirror, and a huge flame was unleashed, displaying astonishing divine power.

Moths are naturally afraid of fire. The Moth Demon King, who was originally confused, suddenly changed his expression and one of his wings was instantly beaten and covered in blood.

The Wen family was overjoyed, thinking, "He won't last much longer."

Yu Luoning watched with bated breath, always ready to react.

He would wait until they were both severely injured, then seize the treasure and leave immediately.

If we could take care of these Wen family cultivators before leaving, that would be ideal.

Bai Rongling held her breath and stood half a body length in front of her, coldly saying, "Don't be in a hurry."

Yu Luoning nodded. Bai Rongling's cultivation was higher than his, so he would let him take the lead while he waited for an opportunity to act from behind.

Anyway, he's not her man, so she won't feel bad if he gets hurt.

Returning our attention to the battlefield, the wounded Moth King flapped its wings, causing countless phosphorescent particles to explode in the air.

All three Nascent Soul cultivators possessed magical artifacts capable of warding off evil spirits, so they were not afraid at all.

"You dare to show off your meager illusions before an old man like me?"

Then another magical artifact rose up, instantly isolating the spiritual powder from the outside.

Even more terrifying, as the Demon King flapped his wings to release information, the moon moths that were bathing in the moonlight outside the cave suddenly realized something and rushed into the cave like madmen. In an instant, countless moon moths covered the sky and filled the entire cave to the brim.

These moths have beautiful wings, shimmering with iridescent phosphorus powder, and they look poisonous.

Fortunately, Bai Rongling's invisibility spell has a built-in shielding effect, but the swarm of moths fluttering about will inevitably collide with the shield.

Bai Rongling braced herself against the wall, shielding Yu Luoning beneath her. The two huddled in a corner until, after a while, the moths that filled the sky gradually dispersed.

The two looked again at the center of the battlefield, and saw that the three Nascent Soul cultivators were actually fighting each other inside the cave.

Bai Rongling whispered, "They must have fallen under the Moth Demon King's illusion."

Yu Luoning raised an eyebrow. "This little moth is also skilled in illusion magic?"

Bai Rongling: "Generally, the Moth King can release eerie pheromones, and the entire moth swarm in the Demon Cave is under his control. In addition, the phosphorus powder on their bodies also has a bewitching power, which can interfere with the sea of ​​consciousness and confuse the mind."

Yu Luoning laughed and said, "That's for the best, let them fight like dogs."

As soon as he finished speaking, the magical artifact in the Wen family elder's hand shone brightly, and the three wounded individuals struggled to awaken from the illusion.

They immediately launched an even fiercer siege against the weakened Moth King.

The magical artifacts in both sides flashed continuously, and the battle was extremely fierce.

However, before long, one of the Wen family elders was seriously injured, and the other two were greatly depleted.

The Moth Demon King was also on the verge of death.

This is a perfect situation, at least for Yu Luoning. Both sides are hurt, which actually benefits her.

Bai Rongling seized the opportunity and, at the moment when both sides were at their weakest, sent a telepathic reminder: "Now!"

The next moment, he vanished like a fleeting shadow.

Sneak attack!

The moment Bai Rongling appeared, the two groups immediately became alert and attacked her simultaneously.

Hidden in the shadows, Yu Luoning smiled; this was the perfect moment for her to strike.

A short-range aerial maneuver is activated.

In the blink of an eye, she not only snatched the Wen family's Seeking Opportunity Compass, but also looted the storage bags of the three Nascent Soul cultivators.

Give it to me, you guys!
