The Demon Slayer Martial Saint Begins with Insect Refining

Chapter 89: Insect Feeding System
"what?!"

Ding Meng stared at Su Yan's mask, as if he wanted to see through it to see if the face underneath was the person on the wanted poster.

However, he was disappointed. No matter how hard he looked, he could not find the face beneath the mask.

"It can't be Pang Tianfeng. If Pang Tianfeng had such a method, how could he be forced to retreat by Xu Guan?"

Although he thought so in his heart, he was in a stronger position than the enemy and dared not say a word against it.

"I have met Mr. Pang."

"Pack up and go to your lair later."

A cunning rabbit has three burrows. Although Ding Meng looks like a black bear, which robber who survived is not cunning?
Although this valley looks like a wooden house, there is not a single valuable item in it. It is clearly a base for operations, not a nest.

Ding Meng knew he couldn't refuse, so he agreed honestly.

Su Yan's mind moved, and he ordered the blood locusts and their blood bees to pounce on the corpses on the ground, and then began to bite and suck blood continuously.

The bloody scene and the appearance of being eaten alive would frighten even the bandits who had been robbing for years.

You know, less than a quarter of an hour ago, these people lying on the ground were all their brothers.

After devouring a large amount of flesh and blood, the blood bees will also absorb the blood into their bodies to temper it, and then feed it back to the blood locusts.

There were more than ten corpses of warriors. Although they were slightly weaker than the wild beasts, a lot of essence and blood were converted from them.

The blood locust's energy accumulation has increased a lot, but its experience has not increased much.

Not only does it need a large amount of blood as a reserve, it also needs precious elixirs to nourish itself in order to advance.

This is also the reason why Su Yan established this so-called Holy Insect Path.

The purpose is simple, it is just to build a system to feed the insects.

The more insects you refine, the more resources you need to advance each insect.

He was running around all by himself, and even though he was very capable, there were times when he was unable to handle everything.

Not to mention, there are too many shortcomings in the collection of medicinal materials, trading of elixirs, and information collection.

Since blood locusts can control larvae on a large scale, they should play a greater role besides group attacks, such as controlling a group of cannon fodder.

Ding Meng and the others watched as Su Yan's insect beasts devoured the corpses of their former companions.

Then he took Su Yan to their lair. Although they were active in the Heigou Forest, they robbed along the roads that were necessary to pass around the Heigou Forest.

But the old nest was not in Heigoulin. Instead, after twists and turns, it went out of Heigoulin and headed straight for an inconspicuous hillside twenty miles away.

After crossing the hillside, there is another valley. Through the lush forest, you can see that there are many wooden houses in the valley. They are stacked and covered by the valley wall, forming a small village.

"Take out all your treasures."

Ding Meng and the others' faces turned grim, but they didn't dare to disobey orders. They took Su Yan to the warehouse to see the medicinal herbs, mountain products, and wild animal materials they had looted.
Robbery is a business with no capital, but how and when to sell the looted items are all problems.

So it's not surprising that something is left with them.

Su Yan took a quick look and nodded, quite satisfied: "Not bad, the materials are quite complete."

Waving his hand to let Ding Meng and the others go out, Su Yan collected all the herbs, leaving only a part of the herbs for the Bone Tempering Pill, and began to refine it.

After a night, Su Yan left the room with thirty bottles of bone-strengthening pills, but found that there were only fifteen thieves left in the valley.

"That's right. Only two of you died. You're more obedient than I expected."

His words seemed to be a compliment, but to Ding Meng and others, they sounded particularly cold.

When they woke up in the morning, they saw two companions in the Blood Moving Realm. Their blood had been completely sucked out, their stomachs ripped open, their internal organs rotten like paste, and their flesh and blood were blurred.

"Sir, he. They..."

Ding Meng was scared. Such a way of dying must be so painful. The wailing last night almost echoed throughout the entire valley.

However, the man in front of him who claimed to be the Holy Insect Dao seemed not to have heard it.

Cold, cruel, and mysterious.
Such a person was not someone a casual cultivator like him could afford to offend, and he did not want to die in such pain.

Su Yan seemed to be kind and said slowly: "Guess where the eggs will stay after they enter the stomach?"

Everyone's body trembled, and a look of fear flashed in their eyes. They seemed to have thought of something.

"Stomach, intestines, internal organs, brain, heart. The eggs are very small, so they can slowly migrate to many places. You can try to deworm them, but if you're unsuccessful and they hatch from stress, it's not my fault."

Su Yan's smiling tone sounded like a devil, draining the strength from everyone, and a chill spread all the way down their spines.

It’s over.

They knew that it would be impossible to escape this method with their methods.

"Here, one bottle per person."

Su Yan threw a porcelain bottle to each of them. Everyone was afraid and did not dare to open it easily.

"The Bone Tempering Pill was made with your materials. Gather the materials from now on and I'll start refining it into pills. Although I'll take the lion's share, you'll still be needed to make the soup and water."

Giving a slap in the face and then giving a date, even though it is a fatal slap, it is better to give a date than not giving it at all.

Everyone calmed down a little. Su Yan looked outside the valley and said, "Follow me to the Horned Pig Forest."

Su Yan led a few surviving bandits to the Horned Boar Forest. Without any hesitation, he walked in with a swagger.

"Ding Meng, what are you doing in my territory?"

Perhaps because they were traveling together, Su Yan and his companions were stopped by Guillotine Cai Peng, Bone-Eviscerating Sword Wang Cang and their five brothers as soon as they entered the Horned Boar Forest.

The seven men were all wearing masks, looking like birds and beasts, tall in stature, and holding weapons in their hands.

Although their faces cannot be seen, Cai Peng's knife and Wang Cang's sword are both very recognizable.

"I'm looking for you to do business with."

Ding Meng looked at the seven people and felt secretly resentful. Why was he the only one to be enslaved? If he had found more people, they would have suffered the same fate.

The ill intention in his words had already been noticed by Cai Peng and Wang Cang on the opposite side. Ding Meng's emotions were too obvious.

"Ding Meng, don't refuse a toast and drink a forfeit. Get out!"

Cai Peng's eyes turned cold, but he stared at Su Yan who was next to Ding Meng.

Su Yan raised his eyes slightly: "Let's do it."

At the command, Ding Meng, who had been wanting to take action for a long time, rushed towards the Bone-Eviscerating Sword King Cang opposite him.

More than ten men also started fighting, fighting with the five brothers on the opposite side.

Cai Peng's guillotine was taken out, and he rushed towards Su Yan with a sharp sword.

He was a master who had reached the minor success stage of the Yang Yuan Realm. He was confident that he could chop off Su Yan's head within seven steps.

"Clanging"

The big knife came in front of him, but suddenly he saw Su Yan grabbing it with one hand.

Although it is a mortal body, it makes clanging sounds like metal and stone.

Cai Peng was shocked. It was impossible for his body to be so strong. It must be outer armor!
He only caught a glimpse of a black armor plate on Su Yan's hand, but he didn't know that it was not outer armor or inner armor at all.

Instead, it was Su Yan's insect bone armor body, which was protected by a body defense, and its strength was several times stronger than that of gold and stone.

The influx of true energy and sword energy was also absorbed by the armor.

Su Yan's brows furrowed, and he felt his entire arm become numb and sore, his feet sank, and his body swayed.

"Hmph, even if you have armor, how dare you fight me?"

Cai Peng was an experienced robber, so he naturally noticed Su Yan's subtle movements and immediately felt that there was an opportunity.

However, Su Yan took a few steps back to avoid the successive blades. With his hands raised, his eyes were like swords. The insects are coming!

Countless blood-red blood bees suddenly appeared, as if flying out from his sleeves.

The black cloud turned into a red cloud and flew over, trapping the unprepared Cai Peng in it.

Cai Peng swung his sword continuously, chopping and slashing without stopping, but the number of the blood bees was simply too large.

He could chop down dozens or even hundreds of them, but he couldn't kill thousands of them in an instant.

Su Yan's blood bees formed a cloud, which contained three thousand blood bees, including dozens of knife-like blood bees.

This is the upper limit of the blood locusts' current accumulation and control of blood bee eggs. About three thousand blood bees are enough to form an extremely terrifying combat force.

Cai Peng wanted to escape, but after just two steps, he felt a bloody wound appear on his body.

The blood bees used their sharp beaks to scratch his skin and pierce his body. Even though he was wearing inner armor, it could not protect every part of his body.

His blood was sucked by the blood bees, and he soon felt weak.

Su Yan reached out to grab him at this time, and Cai Peng had no time to distract his attention.

He was hit hard in the chest and flew backwards, losing his ability to fight.

Wang Cang and the other six people were shocked when they saw Cai Peng like this.

But before they could make a move to escape, the remaining blood bees swarmed over and did the same thing to them, subduing them all.

Su Yan threw the Three Corpses Brain Pill containing insect eggs to Ding Meng and forced them to take it.

Without wasting any words, he dragged out the most seriously injured Old Seven, ordered the insect eggs to hatch, and cut open his stomach so that Cai Peng and others could see it clearly.

"You've all swallowed the eggs. In just a quarter of an hour, they'll have spread throughout your organs. It's your choice whether you want to live or die."

Cai Peng and Wang Cang looked as pale as death. How could they have any choice in this situation?

His pale face lowered: "Sir, we are willing to live."

The six survivors immediately understood their position and all wanted to stay alive.

Su Yan also ordered them to take out all the supplies from the old nest, which were all top-quality medicinal herbs and treasures, including many weapons, which were obviously their spoils of war.

This time, Su Yan did not refine the herbs into pills because he was short of time.

We agreed with Elder Lichuan that we would be out in five days, but now it has been four days. If we delay any longer, we will miss the time.

Su Yan simply let Ding Meng, Cai Peng and others lead the way and head straight for Moshi Mountain.

Ding Meng knew what Su Yan was thinking and was secretly shocked. Who was this fake Pang Tianfeng? He was so bold that he even took down three gangs of thieves. Did he really want to be the King of the Green Forest?
He is not bragging. Among these green forest bandits, one person in the Yang Yuan realm is enough to form a small force.

If the true meaning is not revealed, ordinary warriors can do nothing about it.

If several people in the Yangyuan realm unite together, who can control them except the true intention?

When the group arrived at the foot of Moshi Mountain, they saw that the mountain was extremely dangerous. There was only a narrow path leading into the mountain and up the mountain. Rugged rocks blocked the way ahead. The further in they went, the steeper the path became.

There is only one way up and down the mountain. There is a pass at the most dangerous place halfway up the mountain, which is the Moshizhai.

In such a dangerous place, even a true warrior would inevitably suffer some losses.

Not to mention ordinary warriors.

When they arrived at the foot of the mountain, they had already been discovered by the Moshizhai bandits on lookout. The pass was full of bandits, about hundreds of them, ready to throw stones and bows and arrows.

When we reached halfway up the mountain, we were only two or three hundred meters away from the pass. Looking up from below, we saw a large village built along the mountainside.

The outer wall is a high hardwood wall, covered with a thick layer of mud and straw, which cannot be burned by fire or washed away by water.

Going up, there are bandits ready for battle and a large number of defensive equipment.

"Cai Peng, Ding Meng, you two have crossed the line."

As soon as the people arrived, the cunning sheep-loving old man Yang Kun was already shouting loudly on the gate of the village, his eyes bright and shining.

"Retreat immediately. We may still be neighbors someday. If you come any closer, you'll be pierced by an arrow. Even if you're at the Yang Yuan realm, you won't be able to get up here."

The cunning old man was very cunning. He had already noticed that something was wrong and was determined not to let this group of people get close.

When Cai Peng saw this scene, he was also worried that Su Yan would use them as cannon fodder in the fight.

He whispered, "Think twice, sir. Everyone knows that the cunning old man of Moshi Village is a veteran in the Yangyuan realm, but few know that they are brothers, and their younger brother Yanglun is also a Yangyuan realm warrior. With the two of them guarding the area, we cannot storm it by force."

"Prepare to enter the city."

Cai Peng was stunned by Su Yan's words, and then he saw the mysterious man in front of him. With a wave of his hand, the swarm of insects like a red cloud appeared again and rushed towards the bandits upstairs.

Cai Peng was suddenly startled. He only used ordinary thinking to look at it, but forgot that this gentleman had other abilities.

When the red cloud came, the cunning old man immediately ordered his men to shoot arrows, and a large number of arrows flew over.

But when facing blood bees, such attacks have no way to restrain them.

The blood bees instantly enveloped a large number of ordinary bandits, and their attacks prevented them from concentrating on defense and forcing them to be wary of their own safety.

In just a few moments, a large number of bandits were injured and some fell down.

The tight defense became a joke. The cunning old man's face changed drastically, and he strode forward with a torch in hand: "Use fire!"

His younger brother Yang Lun also came to help immediately, constantly using fire to disperse the blood bees.

But how can they take full account of the long battle line above the mountain stronghold?
Not to mention, the two of them were also among those besieged.

"It's still too few. We need to accumulate more. Three thousand isn't enough."

Su Yan showed a hint of regret, then said to Ding Meng and the others, "Go up to the city wall and capture those two brothers."

Without arrow defense, the city wall is not unbreakable.

Following Su Yan's order, Cai Peng, Ding Meng, and Wang Cang gritted their teeth and accepted the task.

The three men rushed over quickly. Ding Meng blocked with his arms, lifted them up with great force and threw them up, throwing Cai Meng and Wang Cang up one after another.

As the two men went up, they wielded their swords and knives to clear the area around them, then lowered the rope to lead Ding Meng and his brothers up.

There was chaos on the city wall for a while. The two brothers, Cunning Sheep Sou, realized something was wrong and rushed over.

Su Yan took a step forward, stepped on the blood locust, and sent it flying upwards.

On top of the village, the fight was fierce.

Three against two, they already had the upper hand, and with the blood bees constantly supporting them from the side, the two brothers, Cunning Sheep, were soon completely suppressed.

He was knocked to the ground in a short while.

The remaining bandits had already surrendered and did not dare to attack rashly. If they stopped, the blood bees would not attack.

Even if there were occasional bandit leaders in the Blood Moving Realm who were angry and launched a surprise attack, they were all captured one by one by Su Yan's Blood Moving Warriors.

The impregnable stronghold was breached by Su Yan just like that, as if it were a joke.

"Please spare our lives, my two brothers are willing to pay the price."

"Take the medicine if you want."

Without waiting for the two brothers, Cunning Sheep Sou, to beg for mercy, Su Yan planted insect eggs in all the warriors in the stronghold who were above the level of Blood-moving Warriors.

Killing the chicken to scare the monkeys, letting them see the power of insect eggs, even the cunning sheep old man Yang Kun looked ashen at this time, knowing his own fate.

"Take inventory of the population and resources in the village, and prepare the corpses and wild beast blood food for me. From today on, this village will be renamed the Holy Insect Village."

Su Yan gave the order. With this stronghold, the basic power integration was completed, and it was time to start plundering resources.
