Chapter 476: Golden Silk Silkworm and Heavenly Azure Flower

But before the old man and Ji Yin could release their spirit beasts and demon corpses, a sudden change occurred on the altar.

A bright green giant silkworm in a light cluster suddenly trembled, and then the golden light around its body dimmed rapidly.

Almost at the same time, the golden thread in its mouth snapped with a "snap" sound amidst a tremor.

"Not good!"

Wan Wan Tianming and the others of the righteous path, who were paying full attention to the treasure-taking matter, exclaimed in shock with greatly changed expressions.

But before they could take any action, the other few giant silkworms also appeared in the same situation.

After the same golden light dimmed, the golden threads of the other two giant silkworms also snapped on the spot.

This time, Wan Wan Tianming's heart sank to the bottom. His figure, which had already moved forward, was stunned in place.

But this wasn't the end!

Although the golden threads of the remaining three giant silkworms were still there, after losing the support of half their companions, they were pulled violently as if by a giant force, flying into the large hole.

Then a loud noise of heavy objects falling came, and the entire stone platform shook incessantly.

And the blue light at the hole dimmed immediately, and the coldness greatly decreased.

Seeing this scene, the righteous path people's expressions were all very ugly.

And the old demons like Ji Yin, who were just about to make a move, looked at each other with strange expressions, and the expressions on their faces were equally wonderful.

"Haha! Haha..."

Man Man Huzi held his stomach and laughed wildly. He laughed until the yellow beard on his chin trembled incessantly, appearing incomparably satisfied.

And at this time, Ji Yin and the old man in the Confucian robe also reacted, revealing gloating expressions, all looking toward the three righteous path people.

As such, Wan Wan Tianming's face turned even more livid.

For this treasure-taking, he had spent so much scheming and paid such a great price, only to end up being mocked by the demonic path people.

This made the fire in Wan Wan Tianming's heart surge up and he could no longer suppress it.

Suddenly, he turned around, glared at Ji Yin and the other three with gloomy coldness.

Ancestor Ji Yin and the old man's smiles froze.

The other party was a Nascent Soul mid-stage cultivator. Even if they belonged to the righteous and demonic paths, he and the other didn't want to easily form a deep feud with Wan Wan Tianming.

But Man Man Huzi glared back at him without politeness amidst this glare.

"Why, Sect Master Wan wants to compete with me here? I just want to learn the Heavenly Net True Technique among the three great divine techniques of Confucianism." Man Man Huzi said provocatively with a stiff face.

Wan Wan Tianming glared coldly at Man Man Huzi for a while, and finally, a look of reason returned to his face.

"Go!"

He flicked his sleeve and took the lead to leave the altar, not even caring about the few remaining Golden Silk Silkworms on it. He only summoned back the white flood dragon that was confronting the demonic path.

Tian Tian Wu Zi's expression was equally ugly. After putting away the giant turtle, he followed closely behind Wan Wan Tianming with a gloomy face.

That black, thin old farmer-looking man, apart from his eyes being somewhat cold, appeared relatively calm.

When the righteous and demonic sides brushed past each other, both sides were extremely vigilant and careful of each other.

But fortunately, although Man Man Huzi was incomparably arrogant, he didn't say anything to provoke the other party at this time, only watching Wan Wan Tianming and the others move away with a cold smile, and finally disappear out of the light curtain.

"I let the Azure Thorn Birds lurk at the entrance; if the righteous path fellows return, we will also know." The old man in the Confucian robe looked at the direction behind them and suddenly said this sentence.

"In that case, I will also send two Heavenly Capital Corpses to ambush at the entrance; if they suddenly sneak attack us, they can also do some blocking." Ancestor Ji Yin's eyeballs turned, and he laughed gloomily as well.

Qing Yi Qingyi Jushi was stunned upon hearing this, but immediately didn't say anything with a calm expression.

Then, he shook his Confucian sleeve, and a cyan light the size of a fist shot out, rushing into the sky.

And Ancestor Ji Yin reached out and threw something onto the ground, seemingly throwing out something.

Two wisps of black smoke emerged, then a fishy smell wafted out, and two tall, green demon corpses appeared before the crowd.

"Go," Ancestor Ji Yin pointed solemnly toward the entrance.

Instantly, the two demon corpses' bodies twisted and blurred, then vanished without a trace.

This scene made Han Li recall the strange situation when the demon corpses appeared suddenly that day, and his heart shivered, increasing his wariness toward these demon corpses.

However, when Han Li's gaze landed on the few Golden Silk Silkworms lying on the altar and trembling incessantly, he walked over out of curiosity.

But before he reached them, another person walked over at lightning speed. Han Li looked sideways and saw it was Xuan Gu, who had always been silent.

He felt somewhat surprised in his heart!

"What's going on? These Golden Silk Silkworms are also rare strange insects. Looking at the golden light they had just now, their cultivation level shouldn't be shallow. Wan Wan Tianming actually abandoned them without a hint of heartache; this is somewhat strange!" Man Man Huzi walked over and asked casually.

"They took the Heavenly Azure Flower. They forcibly raised their cultivation level with this item to lift the Void Heaven Cauldron a little. But now that the medicinal effect has passed, these Golden Silk Silkworms are considered completely useless." Xuan Gu only checked the giant silkworms for a while, then replied with a calm expression.

"I said how could Golden Silk Silkworms lift the Void Heaven Cauldron! So they borrowed this thing. Hehe! Wan Wan Tianming's trip this time is truly stealing a chicken only to lose the rice." Man Man Huzi laughed wildly upon hearing Xuan Gu's words.

"Heavenly Azure Flower! I didn't expect Wan Wan Tianming to actually find this item. I also once thought of using this method. But it's a pity that I haven't found a single Heavenly Azure Flower for so many years. But Man's junior actually knows this flower; it seems he is also not a nameless person. I wonder if Wu has ever heard of this person's name." Ancestor Ji Yin's eyes turned, and he stared at Xuan Gu's face and asked slowly.

"I just read more dead books. I don't have any great name; Senior Wu is joking." Xuan Gu smiled and said softly.

"Is that so?" Ji Yin said with a faint expression, not knowing whether his suspicions had been completely dispelled or if he was wary of Man Man Huzi on the side, so he did not continue to ask. Instead, he turned and walked to the side of the large hole, lowering his head to look down.

The blue light in the hole reflected off his face, making it look extremely eerie.

Han Li stood to one side, watching coldly, feeling some admiration for Xuan Gu's ability to endure.

He was actually able to face Ji Yin and still call him "Senior" with a normal expression; it seemed the temperament of the old demon Xuan Gu was truly terrifying!

But then again, apart from that Wu Chou, who here was easy to fool? Every one of them was an old fox who had lived for hundreds of years or more, and each was exceptionally treacherous.

Just as Han Li was thinking this in frustration, he heard the old man in the Confucian robe say:

"Since these golden silk silkworms are useless, let's just destroy them to avoid them being an eyesore here." After saying this, the old man flipped his palm, and a cluster of thorn-like cyan spheres appeared in his hand, about to be shot at the half-dead giant silkworms.

"Wait! This junior is quite interested in these golden silk silkworms, so please leave them for this junior to handle!" Han Li squinted his eyes and scanned the three giant silkworms, then suddenly had an idea and said to the old man.

"You want these things! Not only is their cultivation completely ruined, but they won't live much longer either." The old man in the Confucian robe revealed a look of surprise and confusion.

"This one has always had some interest in these exotic insects. Since they haven't died yet, this one would like to keep them for research for a while. I hope Senior can grant this request." Han Li said with a smile, cupping his hands.

Hearing this from Han Li, the old man in the Confucian robe did not reply immediately, but looked him up and down again, and then a thoughtful look appeared on his face.

This made Han Li feel uneasy, not knowing what the other party's intentions were.

"Cough! This old man was also a rogue cultivator in his early years, so I naturally know that rogue cultivators at the Core Formation stage are not like those disciples from large sects, and they are indeed a bit strapped for cash. Since young friend Han wants these wastes, then just take them!" After the old man in the Confucian robe shook his head, he said with some emotion. Clearly, he had misunderstood something!

Hearing this, Han Li rolled his eyes inwardly.

But on the surface, he could only take advantage of the situation, showing an embarrassed look and thanking him repeatedly.

Then he took out an empty spirit beast bag and put the three golden silk silkworms away.

Judging by their appearance, they had already had their original master's spiritual sense wiped away by Wan Wan Tianming at the same time they were abandoned. Therefore, they were collected into the bag by Han Li without any struggle.

"Han Li, stop busybodying with those messy things. Quickly release that blood jade spider; I want to see what level of spirit beast it is after all. Then I will have my fire pythons provide some coordination. We must succeed in one go!" After watching for a while at the entrance of the hole, Ji Yin called out to Han Li without looking back, a hint of fanaticism appearing in his eyes.

Hearing this, Han Li frowned secretly and walked over.

And Qingyi Qingyi Jushi and Man Man Huzi both looked at Han Li upon hearing these words.

"Don't worry, as long as you can retrieve the Void Heaven Cauldron, this master will definitely not treat you unfairly." Ji Yin turned around and said to Han Li with a kind expression, looking as if he was afraid he wouldn't do his best.

But after these words entered his ears, Han Li felt a chill rise up his back.
