Chapter 2209

~11 min read 2,049 words

These three Gold-Devouring Insects were the three spiritual insects that remained after tens of thousands of mature Gold-Devouring Insects and twelve candidate insect kings devoured each other.

Back then, under the threat of the Heavenly Tribulation's True Thunder, Han Li, in his anxiety, summoned all the Gold-Devouring Insects that were soaking in the Spirit-Washing Pool water and had fallen into a deep sleep of evolution after devouring a large amount of spiritual objects.

As a result, these Gold-Devouring Insects and more than a dozen candidate insect kings began to attack and devour each other after suffering from the True Thunder strike and devouring a bit of True Thunder power.

This surprised Han Li, and he was naturally both shocked and happy!

As a result, after he passed the Heavenly Tribulation and advanced to the Great Ascension stage, the entire insect swarm was left with only the three candidate insect kings, or they could be directly called 'half-step insect kings'.

These three half-step gold insects were not only far larger than the original ones, but their forms were also abnormally ferocious, and the deep purple patterns on their backs faintly formed the shape of lightning, making one feel terrified at the sight.

At the same time, the aura of the three half-step insect kings was far from what it was before, almost comparable to Body Integration late-stage cultivators.

Coupled with the indestructible bodies of these three giant gold spiritual insects and their terrifying ability to devour everything, their true power could be imagined!

But unfortunately, after these three half-step spiritual insects devoured to this point, they stopped devouring each other again, leaving only one spiritual insect.

Otherwise, the Gold-Devouring Insect King, which Qing Tian Yuanzi once mentioned that even True Immortals would have to retreat three times upon encountering, might have truly appeared in the world.

Han Li carefully observed the three half-step gold insects, his gaze flickering, and he secretly urged his divine sense.

The three half-step gold insects' wings trembled, and they instantly turned into balls of golden light, shooting out of the secret room.

For a time, only the sound of "Swish Swish" echoed in the secret room, and balls of golden light flashed in every corner, as if they were ghosts.

Wherever his divine sense urged, the three spiritual insects were like arms and fingers, without the slightest hesitation or lack of smoothness.

Seeing this, Han Li finally felt relieved and immediately formed a seal with one hand.

The three giant gold insects let out a hum, their bodies shrank rapidly, and they flashed into his sleeves, disappearing without a trace.

With these three half-step Gold-Devouring Insect Kings, Han Li was equivalent to having three formidable helpers at the Body Integration late stage out of thin air, which could be considered a huge benefit that fell from the sky.

Han Li's joy faded slightly, and after secretly pondering for a while, he sat cross-legged on the ground without moving, but his lips moved a few times, yet no sound came out, as if he were transmitting his voice to someone.

As a result, a moment later, ripples appeared in front of Han Li, and after a flash of silver arc, a figure appeared silently and said indifferently to Han Li:

"Fellow Daoist Han, are you looking for me!"

This figure was none other than Daoist Crab.

"Brother Crab, please sit! Now that there are only the two of us here, I think we can continue our previous conversation. For the sake of caution, I would like to ask you to repeat what you said before." Han Li first greeted Daoist Crab to sit down and said with a faint smile.

"Good. My previous meaning was very simple: you now have the conditions to become my true master. As long as you can complete a few more things, I can act for you and be driven by you from now on." Daoist Crab said indifferently.

"Who set these conditions you speak of? It couldn't be that Brother Crab came up with them on a whim, right?" Han Li asked cautiously.

"Of course this wasn't my own idea, but the conditions set by my former master. Only when someone who meets the basic conditions appears will I take the initiative to say these words." Daoist Crab replied without hesitation.

"Your former master is an existence like a True Immortal. Since these conditions were set, I imagine there must be a deep meaning behind them, and they wouldn't be fake. Brother Crab might as well state the subsequent requirements first, to see if I can truly do these things," Han Li pondered for a long time before saying word by word.

"Good. I have a list here with a few items; you find them all first." Daoist Crab nodded, raised one hand, and a blue jade slip flew straight toward the opposite side.

Han Li grabbed into the void with one hand and caught the jade slip, while frowning and asking: "Is it just this one thing?"

"Of course not! But if you can't even handle this matter, there's naturally no need to know about the subsequent matters," Daoist Crab said frankly.

"That makes sense!" Han Li nodded, stuck the jade slip to his forehead, and swept his divine sense into it instantly.

As a result, after a moment, Han Li withdrew his divine sense, moved the jade slip away from his forehead, and after looking at it again with a frown, he slowly said to Daoist Crab:

"The items in here are naturally not easy to find. Besides spending some time, I'm afraid I'll need a certain amount of opportunity to collect them all. If I'm unlucky, I might not be able to gather them all in this lifetime. Is Brother Crab sure that not a single one can be missing?"

"Not only can not a single one be missing, but even the weight of each type cannot be missing by a single point, otherwise it won't count as you completing this condition," Daoist Crab replied without hesitation.

"Alright. It seems that wanting Brother Crab to truly serve me is really not an easy task. I can only say I will try my best first," Han Li held the jade slip with one hand, and after his expression changed for a long while, he finally said with determination.

"Good, I hope you can truly succeed! If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving first." Daoist Crab nodded and said, his face expressionless, and after a sway of his body, he turned into an electric arc and merged into the void again.

Han Li looked at the ground where the other party disappeared, a strange look flashing across his face.

It seems his previous judgment was correct. This Daoist Crab truly gained a lot of spiritual intelligence after he advanced to the Great Ascension stage. It seems this pseudo-immortal puppet really has some secrets unknown to others.

After Han Li's thoughts turned rapidly several times, he silently put the jade slip into his storage bracelet and closed his eyes with both hands on his knees.

Having finally finished dealing with everything, he could finally sit quietly and adjust his breath to consolidate his realm.

Just like this, Han Li stayed in the secret room without coming out, and the outside world passed by day by day, and a month passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, Han Li, who was sitting cross-legged in the secret room, suddenly opened his eyes, and two blue sun-like piercing rays flashed and disappeared in his eyes. He suddenly patted his head with one hand.

With a "Pop", the top of his head opened, and golden light rolled out, and a small person a few feet tall appeared in the air after a flash.

The small person wore a green long robe, and his face was exactly the same as Han Li's, looking exactly like Han Li himself shrunk more than ten times. Behind his back was a small green sword, and on both sides of his shoulders and chest were three golden beetles the size of thumbs biting onto his lapels, looking like three golden pendants, appearing abnormally bizarre.

And as soon as the small person appeared, he lowered his head and carefully observed himself, a look of joy appearing on his face.

At this time, Han Li's original motionless physical body suddenly moved, and golden light flashed on his head again, and the top of his head, which had been wide open, closed on its own.

Then, Han Li's body moved, and he stood up on his own initiative, bowing slightly to the green small person in the air.

Almost at the same time, green light flashed on Han Li's physical body, and a green human figure that looked like Han Li also appeared on the side.

It was the spiritual body controlled by Qu'er, and it immediately stood respectfully on the side.

"You two take good care of my physical body. I want to try the Wandering Ten Thousand Miles technique of the Nascent Soul's solidification and completion. I will return in a moment."

The green small person swept his gaze downward and said with a solemn expression, spitting out Han Li's voice.

Then, with a sound of breaking through the air, the green small person disappeared in place with a flash.

Han Li's physical body and the green spiritual body below looked at each other, then sat cross-legged silently, both looking speechless.

And the small person transformed by Han Li's completed Nascent Soul appeared at an altitude of tens of thousands of zhang in the high sky with a flash. Looking down, the white clouds below could only be vaguely seen. Looking up again, what came toward him was the white hurricane making a buzzing sound. As it blew, the green long robe fluttered, and at the same time, his face felt a faint pain as if cut by a knife.

But seeing this, the green small person didn't feel shocked but laughed instead, whispering a few words:

"This extraterrestrial gang wind really lives up to its reputation. If it were the Nascent Soul that came to this height before, I'm afraid it would have been torn to pieces by this gang wind in a short time. Now, besides being a bit hard to endure, I no longer fear this gang wind."

As soon as the green small person finished speaking, he formed a seal with one hand again, and his whole body blurred, turning into a ball of golden light and merging into the gang wind, traveling through the wind at an incredible speed, and the altitude of his escape became higher and higher.

And as the green small person's escape speed increased and he climbed slowly, the white hurricanes rolling from all directions became more and more ferocious and terrifying.

In the gusts of wind, one could vaguely see wind blades forming out of thin air, and after a flash, they drew black space cracks near the green small person.

Seeing this, the green small person's pupils shrank slightly. After a moment of hesitation, he didn't intend to dodge and continued to ride the wind without hesitation.

With a "Swish", a wind blade flashed across the green small person's body, and instantly a thin crack appeared in the same place out of thin air.

The green small person blurred, as if he was about to be sucked into the thin crack.

But the small person suddenly twisted his body, and after a blur on his body, he broke free from the crack completely and continued forward as if nothing had happened.

The space cracks, which even Body Integration cultivators would regard as a place of death, could not harm this green small person at all.

Just as the small person climbed another ten thousand zhang like a stream of light, a low roar that could not be described came from higher up, and then a strange ripple rolled over.

The gang wind nearby trembled and shattered.

The void high above tore open, and a giant object suddenly stretched out, and with two eyeballs as big as a pavilion, it stared fixedly at the green small person below.
