Mortal: Fight monsters and upgrade, I will enjoy immortality!

Just as the handsome young man died, the big man in yellow robe who was besieged by gold-eating bugs finally fell into complete despair.

After realizing that he could not escape the bite of the gold-eating beetle, the big man became ruthless and reversed the internal energy. After his face changed from red to white twice, his whole body suddenly swelled.

Then, it exploded with a loud bang, turning into a blood mist that filled the sky, and finally broke the encirclement of those terrible beetles a little bit.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the yellow-robed man's Nascent Soul immediately performed the secret art of teleportation and broke out of the encirclement.

But for Ye Ming, the distance of hundreds of feet was reached in an instant.

His body shook slightly and turned into a ray of golden light, crossing the void of hundreds of feet and appearing at the place where the yellow-robed man had self-destructed his body.

Then, the vertical lines between the eyebrows split open, revealing a black eyeball, and a thick black light shot out from the eyeball.

With a "puff", it swept across an empty space where no one was.

The big man's Nascent Soul stumbled and fell out of the space. His face was filled with despair, and he immediately begged for mercy: "Fellow Daoist Ye, please spare my life, please spare my life!"

As the Nascent Soul begged for mercy, a huge golden hand suddenly appeared above his head.

As soon as the light hand appeared, he felt a tremendous force locking the surrounding space, making it extremely difficult to move. No wonder his companions had been captured by the light hand before and had no power to resist at all.

Just as the bare hand was about to grab him, the big man's Nascent Soul said very quickly: "My master is the ancient elder of Tianyuan City, you can't kill me, you can't kill me, ah..."

Before the big man's Yuanying could finish begging for mercy, he was grabbed by a huge hand.

Ye Ming gently hooked his four fingers back, and the golden hand instantly returned to his front.

When the big man's Yuanying saw that Ye Ming did not kill him immediately, he immediately felt the hope of survival. He tried his best to suppress his fear and continued to beg for mercy:

"Fellow Daoist Ye, my master is really Elder Gu. My name is Huang Weilong. If you don't believe me, you can go to Tianyuan City to check. I really didn't lie to you. Please spare my life..."

"The Gu Yi in the early stage of fusion?" Ye Ming asked expressionlessly.

"Yes, yes, it is Elder Gu Yi. Don't worry, if I can go back alive, I will never take revenge on you, nor will I tell my master. On the contrary, my master has left a special soul mark in my soul. Once I die, my master will know it at the first time. Although Fellow Daoist Ye may not be afraid of what my master may do, it is still a trouble to some extent..." The big man's Yuanying kept talking.

However, there was no expression on Ye Ming's face, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry. The big man's Yuanying couldn't continue talking.

"Tell me why you want to attack my cave." Ye Ming suddenly said.

"It was all because of Wan Hong. He instigated us to come here."

"Tell the important point!"

"Uh, yes, yes, Fellow Daoist Ye, you have already advanced to the Refining Void Stage. Logically, you should have changed your spiritual place for cultivation. And you have been away for more than 200 years. So Yuque Pavilion held a meeting of elders to take back your spiritual place. However, since several Divine Transformation cultivators came before and after, they were unable to break the mountain protection formation you left behind. So we accepted the commission from Yuque Pavilion and came to take back the cave."

Yuanying instantly thought of a reasonable excuse, and while speaking, he also observed Ye Ming's expression.

"Really?" Ye Ming said lightly, and it was unclear whether he believed it or not.

This set of rhetoric is totally untenable. The claim in Yuque Pavilion that cultivators need to change their spiritual land after advancing to the Nascent Soul Stage is actually just a recommended practice. There is no mandatory requirement and it is the kind that can be implemented or not.

The reason why they dared to treat him like this was nothing more than a form of struggle between local monks and ascended monks.

Ye Ming made a mental note of Yuque Pavilion and then asked, "Let me ask you another question. How did that person recognize the magic treasure I was using? Do you know that?"

"Fellow Daoist Ye didn't know this?" The big man's Nascent Soul was visibly stunned when he heard this.

"Should I know?"

"Well, this spiritual treasure of yours has made it onto the Chaos Ten Thousand Spirits List, and its ranking is rising all the way. Many people are paying attention to it, so..." "What I'm asking is, you have never seen the Demon Dragon Blade, so why did you recognize it at the first sight?" A cold light flashed in Ye Ming's eyes.

"Fellow Daoist, calm down. There is a brief description of the Demon Dragon Blade on the list. Wan Hong didn't recognize it at first sight. He only recognized it after experiencing its characteristics personally."

Is the Chaos Ten Thousand Spirits List so spiritual? There is even an introduction to the treasures! Ye Ming's doubts flashed through his mind, and he asked the big man's Yuanying again: "Who else knows that you are here to attack my cave?"

"Fellow Daoist, I swear on my inner demon that I have no intention of coveting your cave. I was completely fooled by Wan Hong." Yuanying promised solemnly.

"How dare you! Just answer whatever I ask you. If you keep talking about other things, I will kill you." Ye Ming shouted.

"Yes, yes! In addition to the three of us, there are many fellow practitioners who know about it." The big man's Yuanying said casually.

He wanted to create an invisible perception so that Ye Ming would not dare to act rashly, and make Ye Ming believe that as long as they died here, someone would immediately know that it was Ye Ming who did it.

But this person still underestimated Ye Ming's decisiveness.

"Hehe, since I've already killed one, there's no need to worry about killing one more. Besides, if someone knows about this, I can use it to spread the word. If anyone messes with me, there will be no good end."

"Ah, what are you going to do? Ye Ming, you can't kill me! My master will never let you go!" The big man's Yuanying screamed in horror and struggled hard with his hands and feet.

But everything was in vain. After Ye Ming finished speaking, he clenched his four fingers with a little force.

Suddenly, the golden light hand also shrank to the middle at the same time, and a tremendous force surged out. With a "puff", it instantly crushed the man's Yuanying into pieces, turning into points of spiritual light and dissipating between heaven and earth.

"Hmph, if you dare to set your sights on me, you must be prepared to die!" Ye Ming was unconcerned about the threat from the big man's Nascent Soul. He looked towards the direction of Tianyuan City and sneered.

He is just an early stage of fusion. If he dares to cause trouble, he will never return!

As for the Yuque Pavilion, it seems necessary to help them straighten out their conduct.

Then, Ye Ming looked at the dozens of gold-eating bugs in the air.

After devouring the body of the yellow-robed man, the beetle made no further moves and just stayed in the air, buzzing in place.

These gold-eating bugs were the ones that were left here when Ye Ming left the cave more than two hundred years ago. The order given to them at that time was that anyone who broke into the cave without permission, whether it was a human or a monster, would be killed without mercy!

It is because of the existence of these beetles that Ye Ming feels more at ease about the cave.

What the gold-eating insect did today was to attack the intruders on its own according to the order it gave before leaving. It did not need Ye Ming's command, so the action just now did not consume any spiritual consciousness.

At this time, Ling Yuling came to Ye Ming.

She had been observing the situation from a distance, and only came over when she saw Ye Ming finished the fight.

"My husband, you did a good job in killing these local monks. They are so arrogant that they assign dangerous tasks to us." She said angrily.

"Oh? Is there anyone else who has offended you or made things difficult for you?" Ye Ming turned his head and glanced at his wife.

Ling Yuling rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "Forget it, I won't tell you anymore. I want to deal with them when I have the strength to do so. If someone offends me, I must do it myself, so that I can make my thoughts clear."

"Then you need to practice hard." Ye Ming smiled, then released his divine consciousness, covering dozens of gold-eating bugs at once, and at the same time connected to the marks deep in their souls through the blood marks.

Dozens of beetles made a slight commotion before flapping their wings and flying in front of Ye Ming, dancing up and down continuously, without any of the ferocity they had just shown when facing the enemy.

Ling Yuling looked at these ferocious-looking beetles and exclaimed sincerely, "Your spirit insects are really powerful. The spiritual pressure of a single one is only equivalent to that of the Nascent Soul stage. I didn't expect that thirty or so of them together could threaten the life of a Void Refining cultivator!"
