Chapter 750: Untitled

Su Fan did not attend Lu Qingshan's Nascent Soul banquet. It was not out of fear of exposing his identity; with his current cultivation, even a Golden Core Peak cultivator would absolutely be unable to see through his disguise as a Purple Mansion cultivator.

From the direction of Wu Guo, Wu Yong sent news.

It was news regarding that Baichong Zhenjun.

Wu Yong was a Golden Core Eighth Layer cultivator he had encountered when he was undergoing his tribulation; at the time, his cultivation was no worse than Lu Qingshan's.

Moreover, the other party was also a Fourth-Rank Alchemist.

It was just that he had been controlled by someone and poisoned with Gu Poison, but later he was rescued by Su Fan and then sent off to Wu Guo.

At the same time, he was also helping him scout for news of that Baichong Zhenjun.

Regarding that Baichong Zhenjun, he still had a fair amount of curiosity, especially regarding the other party's secret methods of using Gu, or the secret arts for driving Ancient Insects; he was quite curious.

He wanted to see them for himself.

In the world of immortal cultivation, there are quite a few Ancient Insects, and Gu Insects are merely one type of Ancient Insect; those exotic insects from ancient times are quite formidable.

The Insect Controlling Technique is also one of the hundred arts of immortal cultivation.

Among exotic insects, there are those for combat, and there are also those for support.

There are many combat-oriented exotic insects, such as the Golden Devouring Insect, the Blazing Fire Ant, the Iron-Feather Frost Centipede, and so on; these ancient exotic insects are all very powerful.

They are not single entities; once their numbers increase, they are extremely terrifying, especially the Ghost-Faced Fire Ladybug, which ranks third among ancient exotic insects; it is an extremely fearsome type of exotic insect.

Its body carries an extremely yin and cold fire that burns everything; once contaminated by it, it is very difficult to extinguish.

In the ancient era, there was an insect controller who once commanded this type of exotic insect and, with a Primordial Spirit Initial Stage cultivation, could fight against dozens of cultivators of the same rank.

In that battle, in order to extinguish this person, the Central Dynasty of the ancient era paid the price of thirty-two Primordial Spirit Stage cultivators before they finally killed this insect controller who hailed from the Southern Border, and that Ghost-Faced Fire Ladybug disappeared from Yuanyang Jie ever since.

Therefore, insect controllers are quite terrifying; once they command a fearsome exotic insect, their combat power will be elevated to the extreme.

Su Fan did not really care about those exotic insects that boosted combat power; what he wanted were some auxiliary spirit insects.

However, if you want to control insects, you also need the secret method for controlling insects; relying solely on Divine Soul suppression is useless, as most exotic insects have little intelligence.

Furthermore, many are quite bloodthirsty; once they cannot be controlled, once they are released, they attack both friend and foe.

Su Fan was very curious about that Baichong Zhenjun; if he could obtain the other party's secret art for controlling insects, even if it didn't increase his strength, it would at least be another means to have.

In the current world of immortal cultivation, Su Fan has no rivals. First of all, in terms of cultivation, his strength is already the absolute peak below the Primordial Spirit Stage; even Jian Wuji of Yunzhou is no match for him.

In a real life-and-death battle, he has too many trump cards.

Even without a Pure Yang magic treasure, he has weapons even more powerful than a Pure Yang magic treasure.

Having already cultivated to the Nascent Soul Stage, in these short few decades, his cultivation has improved once again, and he is now at the Nascent Soul Fourth Layer; the power of the Star Heart within his body has not even been consumed by one percent.

Theoretically, this Star Heart could at least raise his Fleshly Body to the Domain Lord level; if placed in the Main World, Su Fan guesses it would at least be enough for him to become an immortal.

In just a few decades, he broke through from the Nascent Soul First Layer to the Nascent Soul Fourth Layer; even those who have undergone Reincarnation are far from being able to compare to him.

Give him another hundred years, and he could reach the Nascent Soul Ninth Layer, then begin to charge toward the Primordial Spirit Stage.

Once he reaches the Primordial Spirit Stage, even those Half-Immortal Stage powerhouses at the Primordial Spirit Late Stage would have no way to deal with him.

In Yuanyang Jie, he has almost no threats; even with the massive invasion of the Demon Race two or three hundred years from now, it would be nothing.

To tell the truth, the Demon Race invasion has nothing to do with Nanhuang Zhou; the Demon Race's many invasions have always come from the direction of Donghai.

After all, there is a void crack in Donghai, which was a crack in the Fetal Membrane of Yuanyang Jie caused by the Immortal-Demon War at the end of the ancient era.

Naturally, invading from there is the easiest.

Otherwise, from other places, one would need to break the Fetal Membrane of Yuanyang Jie, and the power consumed would be immense.

Yuanyang Jie is merely one of the ten thousand worlds beneath the Immortal World, and the Demon Race is not infinite.

Every attack has a certain amount of power, so they always attack from Donghai, and the Human Race also builds strong defenses in Donghai every time.

The East Sea Thirty-Six Island Cities are the most essential places for the Human Race in Donghai; compared to the South Sea Ten Islands, they are incomparably stronger.

On ordinary days, these thirty-six island cities are garrisoned by at least no fewer than three Primordial Spirit Stage cultivators.

Once the Demon Race invades, not to mention that every island has a Primordial Spirit Stage cultivator sitting in command, there are at least no fewer than twelve Primordial Spirit Stage cultivators.

Even when the battle becomes intense, most of the Human Race's Primordial Spirit Stage cultivators will head to Donghai to engage in battle.

Currently, there is less than three hundred years until the next Demon Race invasion; once the Demon Race invades, every region will have to send cultivators to Donghai.

Every continent needs to send people, and every great war is extremely bloody; often, many people go and never return.

Never mind Golden Core or Purple Mansion cultivators; even for Nascent Soul Stage cultivators, the mortality rate there is extremely high.

The Yuanding Sect of those years, at its peak, was quite powerful, even once forcing the Demon Emperor of the Poison Dragon Swamp to retreat thirty thousand li before barely managing to block the Yuanding Sect's momentum.

However, in one Demon Race invasion, the Yuanding Sect lost three Nascent Soul Stage cultivators at once, including one Nascent Soul Late Stage and two Nascent Soul Mid Stage.

From then on, the Yuanding Sect began to decline, and coupled with the fact that the Demon Emperor of the Poison Dragon Swamp had advanced further in strength, the Yuanding Sect slowly could only shrink back into Wu Guo.

Of course, there are also those who reverse their fortunes in this Human-Demon War; fighting the Demon Race and killing them will be favored by the Qi of Luck of the Heavenly Dao of Yuanyang Jie.

The benefits of this are beyond what outsiders can know.

Many ancient sects are very clear about the benefits of being favored by the Qi of Luck of heaven and earth; the simplest is that it is easy to have an epiphany.

And one can obtain opportunities when going out.

Of course, besides this, after killing the Demon Race, the Demon Artifacts in the other party's hands are also treasures, as well as the Demon Origin on the Demon Race's body.

The Demon Origin is also a good thing; after removing and refining its demonic energy, it becomes the purest origin of heaven and earth. If it is returned to heaven and earth, it can naturally replenish the origin of heaven and earth, which is beneficial to heaven and earth.

Heaven and earth will bestow Heavenly Merit.

This thing is of great use to any cultivator; once a cultivator possesses Heavenly Merit, their cultivation will be smooth sailing, and bottlenecks during the cultivation process will become fewer.

More importantly, once undergoing tribulation, the Thunder Tribulation will be reduced significantly.

Su Fan's previous Thunder Tribulation was reduced significantly precisely because he led the Su Family and the Zixiao Sect to groom the Earth Veins, which was beneficial to Yuanyang Jie.
