The Demon Slayer Martial Saint Begins with Insect Refining

Chapter 200 Yanwu Mountains
"If you make a move, a pseudo-spiritual weapon would be a good reward."

Nangong Hongyue looked at Su Yan. She did not ask why Su Yan could communicate with her at such a distance.

"Nothing is free in this world"

Su Yan said: "If the Ye family produces a Danqiao warrior, then the actions will no longer be decided by you. No matter what the situation is, the control will not be in your hands."

"Except for the Ye family, these two materials cannot be found in Nantian City in a short time."

Nangong Hongyue glanced sideways at the man beside her. If there was still a place to look for him, it must be in the Beast King Sect.

"Go find the Rocksteel Ant first."

The two of them left Nantian City and found a deserted place. Su Yan released the six-winged blood centipede and headed towards the Ten Thousand Mountains.

Nangong Hongyue showed the way, and the two did not go through the Hundred Peaks Barrier controlled by the Beast King Sect, but passed through the Hundred Peaks controlled by the Sword Sect.

After walking like this for a whole day, they finally entered the outskirts of the Ten Thousand Mountains.

The miasma was like colorful clouds, spreading between the mountain peaks. Tall trees formed forests, and layers of leaves were everywhere, like a green sea hidden in the mist.

The two men rested in a deserted mountain for one night, and continued on their journey the next day. After flying for about another three hundred miles, they saw a huge mountain range with protruding rocks and black trees.

"The Yanwu Mountains are ahead."

A trace of nostalgia flashed in Nangong Hongyue's eyes. When she was in the Scorpio Cave, these places were where she grew up and gained experience, but it was not the case now.

She stood on the back of the six-winged blood centipede, retracted her gaze, and said, "The Yanwu Mountains are close to the Hundred Thousand Mountains. It's the territory of the Fire Crow Tribe. They have always been xenophobic. Central Plains warriors who enter are usually hunted by them."

The Hundred Thousand Mountains naturally had inner and outer areas. The deepest areas were the domain of wild beasts, with third-level disaster beasts everywhere. Deeper still were fourth-level disaster beasts, and even fifth-level king beasts...

That is the truly ancient place. Even the old guys from the Beast King Sect don’t dare to go deep into it easily.

The outer circle is the central area with poor mountains and bad water, where humans and animals mix.

It turned out to be the residence of the major tribes in southern Xinjiang, as well as the sphere of influence of some disaster beasts.

Because the Three Flames Palace, the Holy Soldiers Sect and other evil sects were fighting against the righteous sects in Lingnan Prefecture, the righteous forces, together with the Demon-Suppressing Guards and Demon-Suppressing Army of the Dali Dynasty, forced them into this place, using the harsh terrain to retain a glimmer of hope.

After hundreds of years of recuperation, several large cities, black towns and tribes were formed, with their subjects or slaves as their own.

When the two arrived at the Yanwu Mountains, they were actually already close to these areas.

"Just be careful."

Su Yan was not afraid. Although he was not a warrior in the Danqiao realm, he would not be trapped here with his means.

There is lava flowing through the Yanwu Mountains. As soon as I approached, I could already feel a hot breath.

Su Yan controlled the six-winged blood centipede to land. The two stood on a hilltop. From time to time, billowing black smoke rose from several hilltops in the distance, forming a dark fog.

This kind of fog contains a lot of black dust, which not only blocks the vision, but also poses a risk of poisoning and suffocation if you stay there for a long time.

In such a situation, searching in the black smoke would probably be even worse than searching on the ground.

"Do you remember which hill we were on?"

The Yanwu Mountains are several times wider than the Yunling Mountains, and there are many branches extending out. It is not so easy to search them one by one.

"In the cave of Yangjiao Mountain, that place is rarely visited by people. I was being chased by wild beasts at that time and entered there by coincidence."

Nangong Hongyue paused for a moment, then continued, "Even if that nest of rock steel ants suffered a disaster or was hunted down over the years, there wouldn't be a single one left."

If it was an ordinary wild beast, she wouldn't mention it after a few years.

However, wild beasts such as bee colonies and ant colonies are different. Although their individual strength is not the strongest, they always have a chance to survive by virtue of their numbers.

"Then let's go to Yangjiao Mountain first."
-
Outside the Yanwu Mountains, a black-winged bull-headed eagle spread its wings and flew across the sky.

This black-winged bull-headed eagle is about seventy or eighty meters long, with a wingspan of up to nine people standing on its back.

The leader was a man with a heavy sword on his back, gray hair, and a thin body like a piece of dry firewood.

He sat cross-legged on the head of the black-winged bull-headed eagle, his body slightly bent, and his movements seemed as if he was taking a nap.

And on the back of the eagle, there were eight people standing behind him. When they swept their eyes over this man, there was a bit of fear in their eyes.

One of them was Ye Qin.

On his left and right were the second elder of the Ye family, Ye Liufeng, the third elder, Ye Liuyun, as well as the second wife, Ye Mang, and the third wife, Ye Shang.

The five of them were all experts from the Ye family, but the four people beside them were different from the Ye family.

A middle-aged man carrying a sword, a burly man in plain clothes, a middle-aged rough woman, and a bald monk, all of them looked very ugly.

"Master Ye, we've already gone deep into the Hundred Thousand Mountains. If we go any further, we'll probably be in the territory of the barbarians. There might even be people from the Demon Sect there."

The one who spoke was a nasty-looking monk named Wang De, a wanderer in Nantian City. He had reached the stage of divine integration and had practiced the golden body, making him quite powerful.

Ye Qin nodded slightly and said, "We're almost there. When the time comes, I'll have to trouble the four of you to help stop the Lingxi Tiger together with us."

The rough woman Li Jindie smiled and stroked the sharp dagger at her waist: "As you said, as long as the Ye family keeps their promise and the pseudo-spiritual weapon is in place, we are naturally willing to help."

The swordsman Yan San nodded without saying anything, but the commoner Song Qian raised his eyes slightly and said, "One pseudo-spiritual weapon per person, the price seems a bit high."

Ye Liuyun looked up and said, "This is a matter of great importance. We are willing to offer a price. All you have to do is contribute."

Song Qian glanced at the third elder, just smiled, and said nothing more.

Everyone was silent, looking towards the Yanwu Mountains, which were getting closer and closer.
-
On Su Yan's side, after Nangong Hongyue identified the direction, he rushed seventy or eighty miles into the depths of the Yanwu Mountains.

Although there seem to be fewer trees in this mountain range than outside.

But there are quite a few hidden wild beasts.

Within a short distance, the two were attacked several times by the reckless wild beasts.

Su Yan did not take action himself, but simply released the gold-eating monster insects. A white shadow like a knife flashed by, easily chopping off the heads of these wild beasts.

After a long journey, they finally saw a high, curved mountain emerging from the thick fog.

The protruding peaks are like antelope horns, and the rocks on the body are sharp and protruding, like swords.

rustling

As the two of them approached, they heard rapid friction sounds among the dead trees and weeds.

Looking closely, they saw a group of warriors in colorful clothes and dark skin, chasing after several people.

"People from the Fire Crow Tribe."

Nangong Hongyue recognized those people, and with a flash of her figure, she and Su Yan hid behind the rock wall.

The two men restrained their breath. At this time, the warrior of the Fire Crow Tribe drew his bow, and the beast horn bow suddenly shot out a sharp arrow, piercing through the warrior farthest away.

"Great skill, pouring true meaning into it, the arrow becomes a flaming crow, a warrior in the true realm of meaning."

Su Yan did not take action, and watched the encirclement and suppression with Nangong Hongyue.

Three Fire Crow warriors and four Central Plains warriors.

One was chasing and the other was fleeing. Although there were some warriors in the true realm of mind among the Central Plains warriors, they seemed to have been injured long ago.

In just over ten minutes, they all died under the arrows of the Fire Crow Warrior.

"Shameless thief."

Among the Fire Crow warriors, the leader Amuhe looked up at his two companions.

"Seize their weapons, strip them of their clothes, take their belongings and go back. Don't let the Central Plains warriors ruin our tribe's affairs." "Yes"

The three men were quick and nimble, quickly taking their spoils and then striding back to the foot of Yangjiao Mountain.

At this time, Su Yan and Nangong Hongyue were hiding behind a huge rock, watching them go away.

"Is there a treasure in Yangjiao Mountain?"

Su Yan lowered his head to look at Nangong Hongyue. The two of them were close to each other, almost touching.

Nangong Hongyue blushed slightly, stood up and distanced herself, then said, "I haven't heard of it. If there is any, I'm afraid it's just the discovery of mineral deposits or natural treasures."

She was a woman who came out of this mountain. She had heard of some treasure caves, secret treasures, and caves in the mountains, but Yangjiao Mountain was definitely not one of them.

When natural resources and treasures are ripe, it is common for tribal warriors to hunt, drive away beasts, and be on guard against warriors or other tribes.

Her eyes flickered as she said, "In this situation, I'm afraid there must be a natural treasure that is powerful enough to break through the Danqiao, otherwise the tribe's strength cannot be mobilized."

Su Yan heard her intention. Nangong Hongyue, who was burdened with a deep blood feud and was eager to make a breakthrough, was extremely persistent.

But he himself was also interested. As the saying goes, it is better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early. If there are really benefits, he might as well give it a try.

"What is the strength of the Fire Crow Tribe?"

"A medium-sized tribe, with a Danqiao realm leader in charge."

Su Yan's eyes lit up slightly, and with a wave of his hand, countless blood bees swarmed out and spread everywhere. In a blink of an eye, tens of thousands of blood bees had flown out.

"I'll explore the way first."

When Nangong Hongyue saw Su Yan's methods, her eyes lit up with surprise and she felt envious in her heart.

"Even witchcraft can't use insects to explore the way like this. How much mental strength does it take to achieve this level?"

Simply use the life and death of the poisonous insect to explore whether there is danger. Anyone who practices poison arts can do this.

However, if you want to train the insect to be as flexible as your own arm and to be able to sense and explore in such a wide range and on such a large scale, the required true energy and mental power are almost enormous.

Therefore, in her eyes, Su Yan was truly a demonic figure.

The two hid behind the rocks, and Su Yan seemed to be still beside Nangong Hongyue.

But in fact, the insect consciousness seed had already attached itself to the blood bee and began to penetrate into Yangjiao Mountain.

'There are quite a few people.'

Su Yan's blood bees had only flown three or four miles when they discovered something was wrong.

On the mountain road, you can see warriors from the Fire Crow Tribe guarding every few intersections.

They held long spears and wore black or brown leather clothes, revealing the blue tattoos on their bodies. They all looked very serious.

One mountain path, two mountain paths, three...

Almost all the roads leading up to Yangjiao Mountain are guarded.

They were all warriors at least at the Bone Tempering Realm. Just from the fact that he kept descending into the bodies of the blood bees, he could sense no less than a hundred of them.

"Even the foot of the mountain looks like this, this is quite a commotion."

The spiritual consciousness on the blood bee probed towards Yangjiao Mountain, and could vaguely feel that spiritual energy was slowly flowing towards Yangjiao Mountain.

The blood bees continued to spread, covering the periphery of Yangjiao Mountain, and approached Yangjiao Mountain silently.

Looking inside, there are several teams of true realm warriors from the Fire Crow Tribe patrolling.

Battles broke out from time to time, and many warriors who ventured into the Yanwu Mountains seemed to have sensed that something was wrong with this place and wanted to sneak into Yangjiao Mountain.

However, the operation was not smooth. The Fire Crow Tribe raised fire crows, which found the traces of these people like hunting dogs.

Along the way, battles broke out from time to time.

Su Yan ignored it and just approached quietly. Soon he reached the top of Yangjiao Mountain and found the place where the Fire Crow Tribe gathered the most.

Rift Valley of Yangjiao Mountain
The rift was like a knife, splitting the entire sheep horn in two from the root, tearing a huge hole of a hundred meters.

The blood bee approached carefully, and Su Yan sensed that the rift was filled with the elites of the Fire Crow Tribe.

"Roar"

A terrifying beast roar was heard, and a bloody violent bear was trapped by chains and locked here tightly.

It roared continuously, and its bear paws, like millstones, moved, causing the chains to rattle, but it still couldn't break free.

"This little secret realm will open up on its own in seven days at most. By then, when the spiritual energy gathers, it won't just be these flies that will come down the mountain."

The leader was a red-faced man with a burly build, and half of his body was tattooed with fire crows.

"Wulike, what's going on with the Black Bear Tribe and the Red Fox Tribe?"

"The Fire Crow Hunters have explored and haven't found any unusual movements, but spiritual energy is already gathering. It won't be long before we see visions of black dragons swallowing smoke. With spiritual energy surging, everyone will know there's something here."

The old man glanced at Wu Like, then said, "It's okay. We've been preparing for a few days. Let Wu Yun hunt down a few more third-level perfect...something!"

The old man Wu Nan's eyes flashed with light and he looked suddenly in the direction of the blood bee.

He raised the old wooden stick in his hand and attacked directly.

puff
The blood bee could not withstand the attack of fire at all and turned into ashes in an instant.

Ok? !

Wu Nan frowned, and Wu Like's face darkened slightly as he stood beside him. He then said, "I've never seen such a bee before."

"Servant insect, I don't know if it's a servant insect of the evil beast or a poisonous insect raised by humans."

Wu Nan is an old and experienced man. With so many warriors here, how could ordinary animals dare to approach him, let alone a warrior in the Danqiao realm like him.

There's something strange about the blood bee.

"Send the order down and see how many blood bees there are on this mountain!"

"Yes, patriarch."

Wu Like immediately walked out quickly and gave the order.

At the same time, Su Yan opened his eyes and gave the order in his heart, asking the blood bees to fly into the thick fog and hide.

He reacted extremely quickly, and the blood bees immediately hid themselves despite the discomfort in the thick fog.

"Come on, let's change places."

Su Yan pulled Nangong Hongyue up and hurried towards the weak points that E had just discovered. Soon they hid again.

Nangong Hongyue saw him stop and only then had the opportunity to ask.

"what happened?"

"The Fire Crow Tribe elder you mentioned is inside, and he has also captured a number of wild beasts and sealed them off in one place."

Su Yan looked at Nangong Hongyue and asked, "In the Hundred Thousand Mountains, what kind of situation would cause spiritual energy to continuously gather in one place, and not see any natural treasures?"

Nangong Hongyue didn't react for a moment, her face showing deep thought, and suddenly an idea flashed in her mind: "It's a small secret realm. The Fire Crow Tribe wants to attack the entrance of the secret realm in advance!"
