The Demon Slayer Martial Saint Begins with Insect Refining

Chapter 240 Fourth-order Insect Master
The three did not loot the entire Baicang Valley, although they did attack and suppress the Baicang ancestor.

However, there are so many people in Baicang Valley that it is impossible for the three of them to search them all.

Moreover, even if they could force these disciples of Baicang Valley to search on their behalf, they probably wouldn't get much benefit.

They have no way of getting hold of the treasure of the Bai Cang Ancestor.

The three of them came out of Baicang Mountain and found another way out of the mountain.

They stopped for a while after leaving the Baicang Mountains. Lan Yunyue and Xia Wan'er headed towards the Beast King Sect, while Su Yan came a step later and headed towards Nantian City.

Su Yan returned to Nantian City in just one day after riding the six-winged blood centipede.

Nangong Hongyue was in charge of Hongyue Danfang. After several months, Hongyue Danfang and Shengchong Chamber of Commerce were thriving.

As Nangong Hongyue continued to practice the Five Poisons Heart-Forging Gu, her cultivation of the Half-Step Danqiao became more and more solid, and the increase in strength also dispelled the prying eyes of many people.

Under the leadership of Yang Kun, Yang Lun and the other five, the Holy Insect Chamber of Commerce is also developing continuously.

With the help of the blood marrow worms, the cultivation of several people progressed extremely rapidly, and they all reached the realm of true artistic conception.

With the five people joining forces, and the small secret realm in the Yanwu Mountains steadily producing precious plants and wild beasts, the three tribes of Fire Crow, Black Bear, and Red Fox also reached cooperation with the Holy Insect Chamber of Commerce. With a large amount of goods exchanged, the profits naturally continued to increase.

In particular, the rock ant black crystal produced in Nanyang Mountain became a famous forging material in Nantian City in a short period of time.

The first-level rock ant black crystal is better to use than the first-level spiritual ore black steel. It is more refined and has better true energy conductivity.

The second-level rock ant black crystal is the main material for forging second-level weapons.

It can be said that the Holy Insect Chamber of Commerce can make a fortune by relying on the Rock Ant Black Crystal.

Su Yan only met Nangong Hongyue once, and she handed him her earnings of several months, which was almost 300,000 first-level Yuanshi.

Su Yan went directly to Nanyang Mountain and began to retreat there.

The one guarding this place is the cunning sheep old man Yang Kun, as well as many true realm warriors from the Holy Insect Chamber of Commerce.

Only Yang Kun and a few others knew about Su Yan's arrival.

As soon as he settled down, he went directly to the underground nest of the Rock Demon Ant Queen and began to retreat.

"It has bred quite a few rock demon ants."

The underground ant nest is like a fortress at this time, two or three hundred meters deep underground, and the interconnected tunnels divide the entire ant nest into three areas.

The upper area was excavated by rock ants under the planning of Yang Kun and others. It was used to devour rock and soil, transform rock ant black crystals, and hand them over to Yang Kun and others for mining.

The middle layer is an underground ant nest dug by the rock ants themselves for reproduction, living and defense. The rock ant black crystals form the walls of the second and third layers to prevent enemy invasion.

The Rock Demon Ant General and a small number of Rock Demon Ants, including their eggs, are active on this layer.

The third floor only has the Rock Demon Ant Queen and four of the strongest Rock Demon Ant Generals. This is the Queen Ant's bedroom.

In the entire ant nest, the number of rock demon ants has exceeded three thousand, which is a very high number.

On the third floor of the ant nest, Su Yan sat cross-legged on a stone platform.

Release the six-winged blood centipede, the flame-armored demon scorpion, the sky-destroying mother locust, the shadow-horned spider, and the soldier-devouring ghost moth.

They all stood guard on both sides, their bodies shrinking to about ten feet in size.

He took the sealing crystal of the Erosion Dragon Worm in his hand, and vigorous vitality immediately came from his palm.

"After a few days of feeding with insect essence, I thought I could recover a little more, but I didn't expect that the third level is already the limit. But it's okay, at least the essence is intact."

Su Yan pointed his finger, and his true energy invaded the seal, breaking the formation that sealed the Erosion Dragon Worm.

With a snapping sound, the red crystal shattered instantly.

A powerful aura suddenly spread out, and the dragon-eating insect suddenly jumped out and attacked Su Yan directly.

The powerful aura seemed to be ready to fight the dragon beast.

"How dare you rebel?"

Su Yan's eyes were calm. The powerful mental force of the Rock Demon Ant Queen had already pressed down on him, like a big hand that slapped the Erosion Dragon Worm to the ground.

Thousands of shadow threads shot out and entangled the body of the dragon-eating insect.

The dragonworm continued to struggle, but saw countless phantoms of weapons floating above it.

Poisonous fog rolled on both sides, and demonic fire danced, completely surrounding him.

Su Yan's eyes were calm as he stared at the dragon-eating insect that was surrounded by six ferocious insects.

"I know you have some intelligence, so how about giving you one last chance?"

The voice was calm. When the dragon-eating insect heard it, it was slightly shocked and dared not struggle anymore.

It was just instinct just now. If you don't know what's good for you, you will not end up well.

[Dragon-Eating Insect (can be refined)]

[Born in a dragon cocoon, feeding on dragons, seizing the dragon's essence, one can transform into nine dragons and become the most powerful beast in the wild...]

The information of the dragon worm appeared in front of Su Yan, and Su Yan's mind moved: Refining
Suddenly, the ferocious insect cauldron in the body vibrated, and a red light shot out from the cauldron and penetrated into the body of the Erosion Dragon Insect.

The light gradually merged completely with the Erosion Dragon Worm, connecting it with the Evil Insect Cauldron bit by bit.

After about an hour, the refining was finally completed.

[Insect Master: 1/10]

[Features: Insect Bone Armor, Insect Sense, Bloodline Gift]

[Insect World Space: 10 cubic meters]

[Erosion Dragon Bug: 1/100 (Newborn)]

A powerful force suddenly surged into his body, deep in his blood, as if resonating, and Su Yan suddenly let out a roar.

"boom"

His true energy surged instantly, his whole body turned red, and the power he emitted slightly was enough to shatter the entire stone platform.

Not only him, the seven ferocious insects were completely crawling on the ground at this time, the power of their blood resonated in their bodies, and their unique blood power was converging into Su Yan's body.

His body continued to grow stronger, but Su Yan's will remained extremely calm and clear.

Blood is in sync!
He could feel that his bloodline was upgrading, gathering the bloodlines of the seven ferocious insects and merging them into one, and was being promoted to the bloodline of the insect master.

"If you can't suppress it anymore, then break through."

Originally, Su Yan wanted to suppress his cultivation at the half-step Danqiao level until his foundation was further solidified before considering a breakthrough.

But now, when the Insect Lord's bloodline appeared, his foundation had become the most solid.

He endured the severe pain and sat cross-legged on the gravel.

The surging true energy was like a raging river, wreaking havoc in his body's meridians.

Under the impact of the true energy, Su Yan's body continued to crack and blood flowed out of his skin, but the next moment it was healed by the powerful blood power.

He guided the huge amount of true energy into the inner scene of Dantian, and the lake that once accumulated true energy was stirred up by huge waves.

The seeds of insect consciousness determine the world

Su Yan's spiritual body stood in the inner scene, and his powerful mental power spread out, instantly stabilizing the surging true energy.

"True essence turns into liquid, condensing into golden elixir"

He silently recited the key to Danqiao breakthrough. Whether it was Xiang Ge's breakthrough, or Gu Sanqian and Long Qiu Shui, they had all mentioned the key points of breakthrough.

Danqiao, Danqiao, it's only called Danqiao when a golden elixir is present. This golden elixir is the condensation of essence, energy, and spirit, the ultimate manifestation of a warrior's physical and mental refinement in the realm of body forging and true artistic conception. Those who achieve a perfect artistic conception and abundant true essence condense a top-grade golden elixir.

If the artistic conception is flawed and the true essence is not retained, it will be difficult to achieve the elixir.

The fuller and more perfect the golden elixir is, the better it can accumulate true essence and then give birth to its own Dharma image.

There are high and low grades of golden elixirs. If it is higher, the true meaning has been understood and condensed to the extreme, turning into lines of elixir patterns. The elixir has undergone nine transformations and is a top-grade golden elixir.

However, to what extent must one cultivate one's true intention, and to what degree must one condense one's true essence, before one can achieve the ninth level of elixir cultivation?
You should know that every turn is no less than a pill-making process.

To make a top-grade golden elixir, one only needs to make the elixir three times.

However, Su Yan currently has the confidence to do so.

"Chengdan!"

Su Yan mobilized his strength, and the Zhenyuan Lake in the inner scene suddenly became like a dragon sucking water. Several Zhenyuan tornadoes rose from the ground and gathered in front of him.

He controlled the surging momentum with his mind, continuously gathering and compressing it. A golden light, as big as a grain of rice, lit up at the center.

As soon as the crystal appeared, it became the center of the vortex, continuously absorbing the true energy that was poured in.

The crystal grew bigger and bigger, and in a blink of an eye it was the size of a thumb, which could be called a golden elixir.

The power emerging from Su Yan's body is still surging and gathering, and the insect master's bloodline is constantly transforming.

Only half an hour had passed and the golden elixir was formed. It was as big as an egg, round and full, and its true essence was condensed.

At this time, the interior of the Dantian, with the golden elixir as its formation, instantly became extremely solid. Su Yan's spiritual body standing in it was like a god, and it was even easier to control.

However, even with the golden elixir in control, the surging true energy showed no sign of stopping.

"In that case, let's continue."

Su Yan had no intention of breaking through two levels in a row. He didn't have enough understanding of the middle dantian and the upper dantian, and he was not well prepared. It was not appropriate to break through rashly. It was better to be steady than to be numerous. He wanted to achieve the ninth level of elixir.

Under Su Yan's control, the golden elixir in his body suddenly collapsed and cracked. The golden elixir, which was originally the size of an egg, suddenly shrank and became the size of a fingernail in the blink of an eye.

The huge mental power was compressed madly, and the entire interior seemed to have entered a high-pressure space.

Long Qushui appeared again, and four tornadoes of true energy continued to pour in.

The compressed golden elixir once again absorbed the true essence, gradually returning to its full state...

After two hours, the second-level pill was completed, and the power of true meaning gathered into a pill pattern, which, together with the blood source of the ferocious insect, turned into a light red pill pattern.

The elixir was transformed into the second stage, but in just a moment, Su Yan burst out his mental power again, directly collapsing the second stage golden elixir.

After five hours, the elixir had completed the third transformation. The strength of the golden elixir was several times that of the previous one. The true essence in the body had decreased a lot, but it was still surging.

After five hours, the elixir had completed the fourth transformation, and the surging state of the true energy in the body had calmed down a little, but the true energy lake in the inner scene was still bottomless. Although the true energy in the meridians was not as surging as a river, it was still endless.

The elixir turns five, six, seven...

Su Yan stayed in the insect nest for three full days. When he turned seven times, the true essence in his body was finally absorbed completely, and the entire golden elixir was almost intact.

The eighth transformation took a whole day to condense. The pills in his body continued to replenish his body. The Seven Flowers Awakening Pill given by Nangong Hongyue was also swallowed by Su Yan. With the help of the two Star Acupoints to open up the true essence, the pill was finally completed.

At this point, even with the mental strength enhanced by the Insect Consciousness Seed, Su Yan felt it was a bit difficult to hold on.

At this time, Su Yan's face was pale. Under the ruins of the platform, there were pills everywhere. No matter whether it was Guiyi Yuandan or Longhu Jindan, all the pills had been swallowed by Su Yan.

The true energy in the body gradually fills up, like a calm river.

After Su Yan finished adjusting, a hundred poison seals suddenly appeared around his body, connecting him with the vicious insects. The vicious insect cauldron was also vibrating slightly at this time to mobilize the connection between him and the vicious insects.

"Nine Transformations of the Pill"

As soon as Su Yan had a thought, the Fierce Insect Cauldron seemed to launch an attack, and the already extremely hard golden elixir in his body collapsed again.

The true energy began to gather, surging like a whirlpool.

At this time, all the demonic energy and insect energy from the evil insect flowed into Su Yan's body.

The river surged again, Su Yan's body swayed slightly, and after calming down, he began to continuously condense the golden elixir.

Three days and three nights, the final nine revolutions lasted for three days and three nights, and the spiritual energy of the entire Nanyang Mountain was converging towards the underground ant nest.

bang
On the day Su Yan broke through, Nanyang Mountain shook slightly, and all the rock demon ants prostrated themselves on the ground.

Nangong Hongyue, who was guarding the camp in the mountains, suddenly opened her eyes, and Yang Kun, Yang Lun and the other five also showed excitement.

"It's done!"

From the moment Su Yan reached the second stage of transformation, they sensed that he was making a breakthrough, and they successively put down their current tasks and stood guard here.

It took about half a month for the true essence to be gathered like this, and it was repeated eight times. Although no one knew what Su Yan was doing, every time the spiritual energy was gathered again, it was far more powerful than the last time.

Now this happened for the ninth time, which meant that Su Yan succeeded.

At this moment in the underground ant nest, Su Yan's aura was as deep as the ocean, far surpassing that of a Danqiao realm warrior like Ancestor Bai Cang.

He restrained his breath and slowly opened his eyes. His eyes were sharp, like a sharp sword.

"Bloodline Gift, no wonder it's called a Bloodline Gift. It transforms all the bloodlines of fierce insects into one's own. Although it doesn't possess their full power, its essence is one level higher. It should be called the Insect Master Bloodline."

The blood gift has two functions. One is to use the blood of the ferocious insect to enhance the blood foundation of the insect master, making it a higher-level blood. The cultivation, perception, blood recovery, etc. are several times better than before, and it will also integrate various characteristics.

The second function is even more core. It uses the bloodline of a certain vicious insect as a prototype and bestows it on creatures that are not vicious insects, creating the bloodline with the power of the insect master.

The closer the connection, the more it will be suppressed by the insect master's bloodline.

This is the work of nature, creating the roots and bones, and establishing the ethnicity.

Su Yan couldn't help but smile. The power of the fourth-level insect lord far exceeded his expectations. Moreover, the space of the insect world expanded a hundred times, reaching 100,000 cubic meters, which was equivalent to several football fields about two or three meters high.

With such a change, Su Yan could boldly plant not only the Lingqiao Tongming fruit tree, but also other precious plants.

"Spiritual Tiger"

Su Yan released the Lingxi Tiger. The moment the third-level tiger saw Su Yan, it immediately lowered its head and became extremely respectful.

It was already filled with shock, as less than half a year had passed.

Su Yan has actually broken through the Danqiao realm.

The aura that had not yet completely subsided seemed to be enough to suppress it easily. The person standing in front of him was not a warrior, but a mountain.

"Owner"

Su Yan nodded slightly: "You did a good job when dealing with the Bai Cang Patriarch. What reward do you want?"

He smiled, but Lingxihu lowered its huge head: "It's my duty."

"Then I will grant you a bloodline."

He placed his big hand on the Lingxi Tiger's head and activated his third characteristic - the gift of blood.

A drop of gem-like blood fell into the Lingxi tiger's mouth and immediately merged into its blood.

The roar of a tiger suddenly sounded, and the hard armor around its body began to mutate.

Its body suddenly grew in size, and at the same time, many spikes grew on it. Its strength and aura were rising steadily, and suddenly a trace of demonic energy containing evil spirit appeared in its body.

The Lingxi Tiger changed its appearance drastically, its tail turned into a blood-red tail hook, and it looked even more ferocious and domineering, vaguely resembling the shadow of the Tiansha Mother Locust.

What it obtained was the bloodline of the Heavenly Evil Mother Locust.
