The Demon Slayer Martial Saint Begins with Insect Refining

Chapter 188 Preparing to Climb the Rankings
Su Yan's gaze undoubtedly made Pang Tianhu's heart flutter. He thought to himself, "He is indeed not an ordinary disciple. But since you have offended the Qing family, then you are unlucky."

Before the Qingtian Yiyi battle, Su Yan was just a whetstone in the eyes of the Qing family.

But after that battle, it became Qing Tianyi's inner demon.

The true meaning that warriors cultivate is the integration of spirit, blood, and true essence. If they want to continuously condense and improve the true meaning, they must have an unstoppable momentum.

It can be to cultivate one's mind through fighting, constantly consolidating one's momentum, and then achieving condensed momentum and spiritual unity, or it can be to be firm in one's own path, seek within oneself, and cultivate true intention.

Regardless of the method, as long as the spirit is intact, it will naturally be easier to make progress and it will also be easier to make breakthroughs.

On the contrary, if there are obstacles in your mind, it will naturally be difficult to calm down.

Qing Tianyi has been practicing very hard these days, but his progress is not as good as before.

The Qing family intended to break this inner demon and also wanted to suppress Su Yan and establish the Qing family's prestige.

"Qing Family, Pang Tianhu! Ranked 187th on the Tiger List, please teach me!"

Pang Tianhu's eyes were stern, like a ferocious tiger.

A blood tiger rose up behind him, which was the true meaning of the blood tiger, and the murderous aura was heading straight for Su Yan.

Su Yan also found it ridiculous: "Who gave you the courage to think you are better than me?"

"You won't know if you're strong until you fight."

Pang Tianhu decided to fight and attacked directly. The tiger shadow entered his fist and rushed towards Su Yan's face.

Su Yan's eyes turned fierce, and without any hesitation, he raised his hand and condensed a star-picking hand that was more than two meters long.

The stars are shining, and the domineering aura is revealed.

The fist shadow came in front of him, and the Star-Picking Hand slapped it directly, and was suppressed in an instant.

Pang Tianhu was shocked. He was at the initial stage of Condensation Stage, but he couldn't even withstand a single punch?

He became energized and rushed out with the Blood Tiger's true power, trying to crush Su Yan.

But the next moment, Su Yan only saw the true meaning of raising his eyes and grabbing the blood tiger that was rushing towards him with his hands.

The blood tiger roared with its true intention and launched a fierce attack.

But the Star-Picking Hand was even more powerful. With just a pinch, most of the body was shattered.

Pang Tianhu rushed forward, his internal energy was shaking, and his true meaning was hit so hard in the first encounter that his breath was also unstable at this time.

"roll"

Su Yan transformed his Star-Picking Hand into a fist and punched out like chasing stars and catching the moon, directly knocking Pang Tianhu away.

Although Pang Tianhu is strong, he is inferior to Su Yan, who has condensed the six true meanings, continuously strengthened the meridians throughout his body, and has rich true energy.

His strength doesn't have much of an advantage.

After only a brief fight, the true meaning of the mysterious beast behind Su Yan, which was like a ferocious insect, faintly emerged.

Pang Tianhu had already fallen to the ground, bleeding from his mouth and nose, and was unable to get up for a while.

"What are you doing!"

The disciples of the Mountain Protection Army filed in, their eyes sweeping over the disciples present.

The pupils of Li Jin, who was in the lead, shrank slightly. The calm and composed Su Yan and Pang Tianhu, who was lying on the ground, formed a sharp contrast.

However, this Pang Tianhu is an inner disciple ranked 187th on the Tiger List. Su Yan has only been a disciple for less than a year, and only managed to reach the 200th position on the Tiger List two months ago.

"Tengwang Cave took action. Do you want to go to the Law Enforcement Hall to receive punishment?"

Li Jin snorted coldly, and Su Yan simply said, "Then we'll have to ask him."

"Senior Sister Li, it was Junior Brother Su Yan that Pang Tianhu challenged."

Someone came out to support him, but Li Jin could see it without him having to say anything.

"There was violence in Tengwang Cave. Pang Tianhu will go to the Law Enforcement Hall to receive punishment."

Pang Tianhu recovered at this time and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

"Disciple accepts the order."

The farce subsided, but the eyes of all the disciples in the valley looking at Su Yan were very different.

Su Yan's strength may be even greater than the rumors say.

I'm afraid that such a disciple will become a true talent in the future.

Su Yan glanced at everyone indifferently, turned around and walked towards Tengwang Cave, stepping into the cave.

The vines continued to spread, wriggling slightly, and emitting a faint fluorescent light, as if they were alive, as they moved towards his body.

A special power began to envelop his body, and mental pressure came.

Su Yan concentrated his spirit and gradually added true meaning to his body to resist this pressure.

嗖

A vine came and headed straight for Su Yan's face.

The Star Moon Centipede's true meaning transformed its tentacles into sweeping across and cutting the vines off. In an instant, the vines turned into shadows and disappeared.

Su Yan suddenly realized that this was an illusion and the training in Tengwang Cave had already begun.

As soon as he took a step forward, the surrounding environment changed dramatically.

The original cave disappeared, the vines continued to grow and turned into towering trees, and a dark forest suddenly appeared in front of him.

With the appearance of the forest, Su Yan suddenly felt an eternal and deep sense of oppression in his spirit.

"Is this how you sharpen your spirit?"

Su Yan walked towards the center of the forest, constantly concentrating his mind and circulating the power of his true meaning. Suddenly, the Star-Moon Centipede half appeared and resisted the pressure.

The further he walked in, the more he saw the moving vines and swaying tree shadows, and every move was filled with a majestic spiritual oppression.

Countless vines attacked and went straight for the spirit. When they hit the body, the body was not seriously injured, but there was a pain like a needle prick.

Su Yan only took one hit, but he cheered up. He used the true meanings of the Star-Moon Centipede, the Gold-Eating Demon Insect, and others to continuously cut off the attacking vines.

"When true intention is condensed, it generates power. When power is condensed, it becomes a minor deity..."

Su Yan's eyes became brighter and brighter, and his mental consumption continued to increase, but his understanding of the true meaning became clearer and clearer at this time.

Tick
Su Yan continued to go deeper, and suddenly there was a dripping sound on the leaves. Raindrops as big as beans fell, and a layer of white frost formed on the leaves in an instant.

Su Yan was also hit by the freezing rain. In just a moment, he felt as if his spirit was frozen.

The consumption of mental energy increased.

A rustling sound was heard in the woods, and a group of mandrills made of vines attacked and headed straight for Su Yan.

Su Yan raised his eyes, unafraid, without the slightest fluctuation in his spirit.

The Star-Moon Centipede, the Poisonous Star Ape, the Green-Scaled Poisonous Dragon, the Flame-Armored Demon Scorpion, the Sky-Evil Mother Locust, and the Gold-Eating Demon Insect, the six true meanings emerged, guarding Su Yan like guardians.

kill!

A steady stream of mandrills attacked, and Su Yan's true beast spirit fought hard.

Every time a mandrill falls, it will turn into a fluorescent rice grain and merge into the body of Zhenyi.

The true meaning continued to solidify, and Su Yan's mental strength was constantly being consumed like a flood.

One hundred...

Su Yan felt that his mental strength was gradually being exhausted.

The more mandrills die, the stronger the cold pressure of death around them becomes.

The power of Tengwang Cave was far beyond his imagination.

His eyes were determined as he continued to control his true beast spirit attack.

Two hundred... When the corpses of the mandrills covered the ground and turned into fluorescent light, the 201st one turned into a Yaksha monster.

Su Yan's heart sank: "Has his mental energy been depleted to the point of leaking out?"

The Yaksha monster is not the monster in the Tengwang Cave. It is possible that the Tengwang Cave captured his mental fluctuations and created this monster.

"I want to see what you can see."

The pressure intensified, and Su Yan felt as if his shoulders had sunk.

If the spiritual body could manifest, I'm afraid it would be bending over and resisting now.

"Su Yan, give me back my Ma family's life!"

Ma Tianhong, transformed into a Yaksha monster, rushed over. Su Yan looked up and saw the gold-eating monster insects rushing over...

In the final fight, from three hundred to four hundred, and finally to five hundred and twenty-one, the Yaksha King's pressure drained his last bit of mental strength.

嗡

Su Yan was mentally shaken and had already arrived at the entrance of Tengwang Cave. His face turned pale and it took him a long time to step out.

Outside Tengwang Cave, there were many disciples who were preparing to enter the cave to practice. They were all looking at Su Yan who had just walked out with shock on their faces.

"Two hours. I lasted two hours the first time. Even Senior Brother Xiang Ge couldn't last that long."

On the Dragon Ranking, Xiang Ge is already a very high-ranking disciple, and his abilities are not exaggerated.

Is it not appropriate to compare Su Yan with such a person?
Some people couldn't help but want to refute, but when they thought about the fact that Su Yan had persisted for two hours.

Under the increasingly strong mental pressure and the siege of countless wild beasts and enemies, he persisted for two hours.

This is enough to prove the terrifying power of his mental strength and his terrifying fighting ability.

Su Yan walked through the crowd, his mind immersed in the harvest he had just gained.

[True Artistic Conception and Wishful Thinking Period: 205/400 (Great Success)]

"After just one session of training, I've made nearly a hundred points of progress. No wonder it's a prime place for training... But it also has something to do with how long I've persisted."

Su Yan naturally didn't think that everyone who entered Tengwang Cave would experience this effect.

He strode out of the valley with an amused look on his face.

Since there has been a breakthrough in the Ruyi period, I might as well find something to do to continue the momentum of my true intention.

Su Yan came to Guizang Mountain. In the martial arts arena, many people had noticed the changes. Su Yan's name suddenly rose above Pang Tianhu.

"When did Junior Brother Su defeat Pang Tianhu?!"

Everyone was confused, especially the disciples of the same period.

Wang Wuyang murmured, "It's only been two months and three days, only two months since the last arena, monster."

In just two months, this speed of progress is truly unimaginable.

"What do you think, Junior Brother Su, is he ready to continue his fight?"

Someone couldn't hold back any longer and finally asked the question.

"That's for sure, but the speed will definitely not be as fast as before. I think Pang Tianhu is just trying his hand. Maybe this time he can climb into the top 150."

The person who spoke was Bai Wenyue. Only after fighting with Su Yan did he know how terrifying the strength of his contracted beast was.

If you are at the same level as him and your skills are insufficient, you will definitely not be able to defeat his contracted beast.

Some people in the crowd disagreed with this view, and before they knew it, they started arguing with each other, each saying their own thing.

But no one noticed that behind the crowd, Su Yan had been pulled aside by Gu Songla.

"Junior brother, you are really surprising."

Gu Songde's words were not a polite remark, he really was a little confused about the background of his junior brother.

Although it is still the second level of the True Realm, this combat power should be considered one level higher.

There are countless geniuses in the Beast King Sect, as numerous as crucian carp and carp swimming in the river.

But there are really not many people who look like this.

"Pang Tianhu was the first to strike, but are the Qing family behind him really idiots?"

Su Yan spoke frankly, and Gu Songde chuckled: "Junior brother, you have made a mistake."

"Ok?"

Gu Songde said: "The Qing family is not really that arrogant. They have two Danqiao in one family. Qing Yunheng and Qing Yunke are both geniuses. They have been in charge for a hundred years and have built up such a huge industry for the Qing family."

After Gu Songde said this, Su Yan's eyes flickered slightly, and he thought of a possibility: "Is the Qingyun Heng lineage deliberately provoking others to reduce the presence of the other lineage?"

"That's a bit true, but Qing Yunheng himself is a domineering elder."

Gu Songde said, "His behavior does have the effect of alleviating the sect elders' concerns about them. But it's more about winning over talent and competing for resources."

"If the Qing family's reputation grows and its influence grows, then some outer disciples, or even inner disciples, will have to find a good place to stay when they come down the mountain, right?"

The Qing family's power in Nantian City needs to be strengthened, and a strengthened family power can also feed back to Qingyunheng and recruit more talents.

Pang Tianhu is one of them.

Su Yan frowned slightly: "The sect has become a family, and no one is here to take care of it?"

"How to manage it, or do we need to manage it?"

Su Yan was stunned, but saw Gu Songde laughing.

A sect is not a company, but a group of strong people.

Although it is not good for a certain lineage to be family-based, isn’t the lineage that is passed down from master to master another kind of family-based approach?
As long as the strongest leader and the sect's ancestors are still there, everything will run stably.

The sect only needs to deal with those who are disobedient.

"If you are worried about the Qing family's revenge, there is no need to worry. Even if Uncle Long is not here, no one dares to provoke your lineage easily."

"Brother, I want to trouble you with something."

Gu Songde was stunned: "What do you want to do?"

"Help me collect the names of the disciples related to the Qing family on the inner sect tiger list."

Gu Songde:?

People wouldn't dare to kill you easily, but isn't it a bit too much to single out someone like this?
"Don't piss off Elder Qing Yunheng, or he'll lose face and deal with you."

Su Yan smiled and said, "It's just a challenge on the Tiger List. The sect's method is great."

Gu Songde nodded and said, "I'll give you the list this afternoon. There are quite a few disciples from the Qing family, and there are a few who are on the Tiger List, but not many."

Gu Songde was a man of action. He said it would be done in the afternoon and asked a reliable disciple to deliver it. Then the things were delivered to Su Yan's courtyard.

“虎榜98名，青天宇真意境四境修为、虎榜129名青紫萱真意境四境修为，虎榜145、157、169名……”

After reading the list, Su Yan sighed slightly, thinking that the Qing family was indeed something special.

It would be unreasonable if two Danqiao realm warriors had been operating for hundreds of years and had sufficient resources but did not produce a few geniuses.

However, what surprised him was that the Qing family was actually a family of spirit sealers, especially the head of the family, Qing Yunke, who was a third-level mid-grade spirit sealer who could make third-level spirit sealing talismans.

This is not some niche profession.

He had also used soul-sealing talismans such as the Misty Smoke Bear, and had seen how powerful soul-sealing talismans were in imprisoning animal souls or sealing in true intentions to fight on their behalf.

If used properly, it is no less than a master of the same level.

It was precisely these abilities that allowed the Qing family to gain a firm foothold in Nantian City and become one of the eight families in Nantian City.

"Okay, let's start with Zhao Yian, ranked 169th. He's the son of the Qing family's guard and an admirer of Qing Zixuan... isn't he a bootlicker?"
