The Heavens: From Film and Mythology to Conquering Myriad Realms

After subduing the Gold-Eating Insects, Lu Yao was in a very good mood.

"Well done!"

Lu Yao patted the heads of the two Blood Jade Spiders and took out two Spirit Feeding Pills to feed them.

"Chi chi chi chi!"

The two blood jade spiders immediately displayed an affectionate expression.

"Let's go back."

Lu Yao smiled and waved his hand to put them into the nest of the Origin Time.

Immediately, Lu Yao's mind stirred, and his figure arrived at a bug chamber in the Origin Space.

Countless gold-devouring insects had broken free from the spider silk and were flying around everywhere.

Lu Yao's heart stirred, and the Haotian Pearl immediately emitted a faint light, enveloping the entire insect chamber of gold-devouring insects.

After a short while, the gold-devouring insects that had been flying around haphazardly calmed down and stayed quietly in the insect chamber.

"These gold-devouring worms are too weak and useless."

Lu Yao looked at the tiny gold-eating insect on his finger and shook his head.

The Gold-Eating Insects are quite powerful, and with the combined might of their swarm, even a Foundation Establishment cultivator would perish on the spot.

However, it's still too much of a stretch to deal with Core Formation cultivators; going up there would just be suicide.

Therefore, Lu Yao still needs further training.

After thinking for a moment, Lu Yao left the insect chamber and went to the alchemy room.

He took out the Black Mystic Furnace, and countless spiritual herbs flew out, beginning the alchemy process.

Currently, there are only a few hundred Gold-Eating Insects, which is insufficient to make the Insect Swarm effective. Lu Yao plans to give these little guys a helping hand.

Albizia julibrissin, dragon's blood flower, red sand...

As countless medicinal essences were extracted, they were quickly thrown into the Black Mystic Furnace by Lu Yao.

A moment later, the fire went out, and countless pink pills flew out of the furnace and fell into empty pill bottles.

"Haotian Pearl! Appraisal!"

Item: Beast Lust Pill

Grade: Premium

Effect: It uses the yin and yang energies to arouse the desires of demonic beasts. Consuming it will stimulate the instinct for pleasure and put the beast in a state of extreme excitement.

This elixir is a divine medicine that can stimulate the mating of gold-devouring insects. It was a recipe he collected by chance and belongs to a special type of elixir.

Lu Yao refined five bottles this time, which is enough for these hundreds of Gold-Eating Insects.

Upon returning to the insect chamber, Lu Yao took out several Beast Lust Pills, crushed them into powder, and fed some to all the Gold-Eating Insects before leaving them alone.

After leaving the insect chamber, Lu Yao returned to his cave on Xiaohuan Island.

It took several hours to refine the four materials given by Master Yuan Jun and Master Kan Qin into pills.

He kept only two bottles of ordinary quality pills, and refined the rest into high-quality pills for his own use.

In the period that followed, Lu Yao refined many other pills, and stored up a considerable number of pills for treating injuries and restoring mana.

A month later, when Lu Yao returned to the insect chamber of the Gold-Eating Insects, he was greeted by countless golden-yellow insect eggs.

Under the scan of divine sense, there were actually several thousand of them, and many of the gold-devouring insects were still laying eggs.

"Not bad, not bad. Once we collect 10,000 of them, we can initially form a fighting force."

Lu Yao nodded, quite satisfied with the scale.

They left behind a considerable amount of spirit-feeding pills and spirit spring water for these gold-devouring insects to gnaw on.

Another month passed, and Lu Yao packed up all his belongings on Xiaohuan Island and prepared to leave.

The only opportunity on Kui Xing Island was the Gold-Eating Insect; there was nothing else for Lu Yao to worry about.

He now plans to travel to the outer sea of ​​the Chaotic Stars and choose an island to move the Free and Unfettered Sect out.

If you want to go to the outer sea, you can either go there yourself or take the teleportation array of Tianxing City.

The distance between the outer sea and the inner sea is so great that even a Nascent Soul cultivator would need several months to fly there, so Lu Yao abandoned this option.

The second method is to spend money to take the large teleportation array in Tianxing City and teleport directly to the outer islands of the Chaotic Star Sea.

However, according to the original story, it took Han Li several months to reach Tianxing City from Kuixing Island. Although Lu Yao was a Core Formation cultivator, he could not fly at full speed, so he was at most a month faster than Han Li.

Once he leaves, he probably won't return to Kuixing Island.

Stepping out of the cave, Lu Yao's hand gestures changed, and light waves rippled outside the cave as several array flags flew out and landed in Lu Yao's hands.

After confirming that nothing had been left behind, Lu Yao transformed into a stream of light and headed towards Kui Xing Island.

Several days later, Lu Yao, disguised as the Ice Mist Hermit, returned to Kui Xing Island.

The three Core Formation cultivators, including Mu Long, were also excited to receive Lu Yao.

"These are the spiritual items you require, fellow Daoist."

Master Yuan Jun and Master Kan Qin took out ten spiritual items, used their magic to lift them into the air, and handed them to Lu Yao.

"These are pills." Lu Yao nodded. They were all materials he hadn't collected yet. It was indeed the fastest way to have others collect them. If he had to search for them one by one, it would probably take much longer.

"Fellow Daoist, your success rate in producing pills is truly rare. I have never seen an alchemist with such talent as you in Tianxing City."

Kanqin's expression shifted slightly, and she smiled as she spoke to Lu Yao.

"Fellow Daoist liked it instantly."

Lu Yao chuckled lightly, not taking the woman's praise to heart.

"I have prepared fine wine and delicacies. Fellow Daoist, why don't we have a discussion on the Dao?"

A glint of light flashed in Yuan Junzhen's eyes, and a slight smile appeared on his face.

"No need. I have some important matters to attend to, so I won't stay any longer. Now that the request for the pills has been fulfilled, I'll take my leave."

Lu Yao shook his head. He had no interest in discussing the Dao with three cultivators in the early stages of Core Formation; it would be meaningless to him. So he decided to take his leave.

"It's a pity. Since you have other matters to attend to, we cannot refuse you. Please leave."

A hint of disappointment flashed in Yuan Junzhen's eyes, as if he regretted not having a chance to discuss the Dao with Lu Yao.

"Farewell."

Lu Yao nodded, then immediately took to the air, intending to fly away.

A cold glint appeared in Yuan Jun Zhenren's eyes as he glanced at Mu Long Zhenren and Kan Qin Zhenren.

"Do it!"

Master Mulong gave a soft shout, and the three of them conjured hand seals, causing three pillars of light to rise from all around Kui Xing Island.

"What do you three mean?"

Seeing the three beams of light fall and realizing he was trapped by a formation, Lu Yao turned around and looked at the three of them calmly.

He never expected that these three people would dare to attack him. The people of the Star Palace didn't even have professional ethics; they actually wanted to become a Tribulation Cultivator.

"Why are you in such a hurry to leave, fellow Daoist? The three of us would like to invite you to stay on Kui Xing Island for a long time, to enjoy the beautiful scenery together, and perhaps even help us refine some pills. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"

Yuan Jun Zhenren hovered in the air, revealing a smug smile.

In his view, Lu Yao, who was trapped by the three of them with their formation, was already a sitting duck, and they could capture him in the blink of an eye.

Both Master Mulong and Master Kanqin wore cold expressions, their eyes filled with greed as they looked at Lu Yao.

Controlling a master alchemist would bring unimaginable wealth. Not only would they have no worries about their future supply of pills, but they could even sell them for a large sum of spirit stones.
