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

"Special Envoy, do we still want to go over there?" asked the woman named Bai Guo.

"Why are you going? Everyone, leave here immediately and wait until the noise over there calms down before making any plans. The restriction we are going to enter is thousands of miles away, so it shouldn't have much impact." The young man with golden horns shouted with a dark face, then ordered everyone to leave.

Then these people didn't dare to hang around anymore, and they all set up their escape lights and flew to farther places.

The young man with golden horns understood the situation thoroughly. If there was only one injured second-level Saint, they could still fight, but if there were two, they would have no chance of winning. If they didn't leave now, would they wait for others to settle the score with them later?
The celestial phenomenon brought about by the second incarnation was only slightly inferior to that of Ye Ming, but it was equally powerful, several times more than that of the general late stage of fusion.

The fire clouds and dark clouds that also covered the sky brought down seas of fire, ice cones, meteorites and other magical powers of the five elements.

However, the incarnation relied on the Great Accomplishment of the Hundred Meridians Treasure Refining Technique and displayed his powerful physical supernatural powers to easily defeat these attacks.

However, the incarnation was much weaker than Ye Ming's original body, and when the last lightning dragons appeared, there were dozens fewer of them.

And those extremely violent gold-eating insects pounced on the lightning dragons the moment they appeared, devouring them ferociously.

Before this group of thunder dragons could truly exert their terrifying power, they were surrounded by 20,000 gold-eating insects and quickly devoured.

After devouring the incarnation's thunder, the aura of each gold-eating insect became much stronger, and seemed to have reached a critical point.

They circled in the air more and more violently, making strange noises from their mouths, and suddenly showed extremely strong hostility towards each other.

Ye Ming was not surprised when he saw this, but was overjoyed.

At a certain moment, almost all the gold-eating bugs in the air suddenly moved at the same time, opened their ferocious mouthparts, and attacked the other nearest gold-eating bugs.

Suddenly, there was a loud "rustling" sound in the sky. Twenty thousand gold-eating insects turned into a large golden cloud and began to bite each other ferociously.

From time to time, a gold-eating beetle was devoured by several or even dozens of other gold-eating beetles.

Every time it devoured one or some other gold-eating beetles of the same kind, its aura strength would increase. Gradually, a hundred or so gold-eating beetles whose auras were obviously stronger than those of other gold-eating beetles of the same kind appeared.

Ye Ming took a closer look and found that these hundred or so gold-eating insects were the ones that had devoured the leaves of the Golden Thunder Bamboo. Because there were too few leaves of the Heavenly Thunder Bamboo, and he wanted to keep some to refine the Vajra Demon-Slaying Divine Thunder, he only selected the hundred or so gold-eating insects with the most powerful aura to feed them with bamboo leaves.

After eating the bamboo leaves, these spirit insects did undergo some changes, but they still did not reach the level of qualitative change. But today, they finally showed their peculiarities.

After its strength increased greatly, the gold-eating beetle seized the opportunity and frantically devoured all the ordinary gold-eating beetles nearby. It could swallow a whole ordinary spirit insect with just a few bites of its fangs.

Before long, all the ordinary gold-eating bugs were devoured, leaving only a hundred gold-eating bugs with several times more powerful auras.

The remaining gold-eating bugs were all covered with scars.

The moment the last ordinary gold-eating beetle was eaten up, the remaining much stronger gold-eating beetles jumped apart in the air, rested for a moment, and then stared at other gold-eating beetles nearby with ferocious eyes.

When the unfriendly buzzing sound sounded again, these gold-eating insects flapped their wings and flew out again without hesitation, pouncing on the closest ones to them, biting them with "crunch" and "crunch" sounds.

This time the fight was obviously more brutal than the previous one! Amid the shrill buzzing sounds, broken wings and limbs fell from the sky from time to time.

During the biting process, they would either spit out wisps of golden light from their mouths, or change their bodies to different sizes, all trying their best to use their magical powers to swallow the opponent without leaving any trace.

Their almost indestructible bodies did not seem to be of much use in this fratricidal battle, and were easily torn apart by the extremely sharp fangs.

Ye Ming watched all this with a burning gaze, without any intention of intervening.

About an incense stick of time passed, when there were only five gold-eating beetles left in the sky, the buzzing sound stopped, and these beetles jumped back one after another, breaking away from contact.

Although the fangs in their mouths were still rubbing, the hostility in their eyes gradually faded. I don't know if they were tired of fighting, or their strength was equal, or for some other reason, they actually stopped fighting.

After flying and circling, it swallowed up all the broken wings and limbs that fell to the ground.

At this time, the gold-eating bugs grew to three or four feet in size, with purple-gold stripes all over their bodies. They looked extremely ferocious, and exuded a terrifying aura. Surprisingly, each one had reached the level of cultivation equivalent to the middle and late stages of the fusion!

"This... how could this be? The gold-eating bug actually reached the fusion stage in one go?" Seeing this, Ye Ming was overjoyed, yet also surprised.

He remembered that when Han Lao Mo was cultivating the Insect King, he first cultivated twelve gold-eating insects in the Nascent Soul stage. Then, when he advanced to the Mahayana stage, he used tens of thousands of gold-eating insects to devour each other, and finally left three quasi-gold-eating insect kings in the Fusion stage.

However, these gold-eating bugs of his could achieve their goal in one step and directly produce a quasi-insect king. It was really incredible!

Thinking back carefully, the way I cultivate gold-eating bugs is very different from that of Han Lao Mo.

Old Demon Han just kept letting them devour, and then focused on cultivating twelve in the Nascent Soul stage. He then let these Nascent Soul stage candidate insect kings each lead a large group of ordinary mature gold-eating insects to fight and devour each other, and finally obtained three quasi-insect kings.

However, he had been constantly enhancing the individual strength of the gold-eating bugs from the very beginning, and only used the rainbow grass in the most critical moments to increase the number of the bug swarm.

And the most important thing is that his 20,000 gold-eating bugs absorbed a huge amount of pure spiritual power and five-colored runes and infused them into their bodies.

After this infusion, each gold-eating beetle has extremely powerful energy in its body, and its cultivation strength is far stronger than that of an ordinary mature gold-eating beetle.

And now, after such a fierce battle, the huge energy contained in all the gold-eating bugs was finally transferred to the five winners, allowing them to reach the fusion stage in one fell swoop and become quasi-bug king-like beings.

"This should be the only explanation that makes sense!" Ye Ming secretly thought about the reason.

Afterwards, Ye Ming released a huge divine consciousness on the five quasi-insect kings, trying to call them back.

Unexpectedly, these five quasi-insect kings made a buzzing sound at the same time, opened their mouths towards Ye Ming, and rubbed their fangs continuously.

"Huh! You actually have the thought of resisting?" Ye Ming was slightly stunned.

Then he snorted coldly, connected with the gold-eating bug's blood and soul, and uttered a low spell.

Suddenly, the five quasi-insect kings staggered at the same time, making shrill screams and looking extremely painful.

It lasted for a full cup of tea before Ye Ming stopped chanting the spell. The Quasi-Insect King stopped wailing, and his aura became stronger and weaker.

"I'll give you a small lesson this time. If you dare to do it again next time, I won't let you off easily!" Ye Ming said in a cold voice and waved his sleeves.

The five quasi-insect kings did not dare to resist anymore and flapped their wings, flew towards Ye Ming, and disappeared into the spirit beast bracelet with a flash of golden light.

"It seems that I need to re-plant the soul and blood restrictions on them, otherwise they will definitely be out of control the next time they advance." Ye Ming touched the storage bracelet and made a decision secretly.

After doing all this, Ye Ming glanced into the distance and left without saying a word.

With Ye Ming's spiritual power comparable to that of the Mahayana period, he naturally discovered the people of the Jiaochi tribe who were only a thousand miles away from him.

However, he had no intention of paying attention to these people for the time being. It was said that the Jiao Chi tribe came to Guanghan Realm this time with a major plot. Although he didn't know what the plot was, he had finished his own business and they were just starting. So he would wait a little longer until they were almost done, and then he could pick the fruits himself. Wouldn't that be wonderful!
As Ye Ming expected, on the third day after he left, the golden-horned young man and a dozen other members of the Jiaochi tribe returned to the original restricted area.

This place is not too far from the place where Ye Ming was undergoing the tribulation. Except for that restriction, all other places were in a mess due to fire, thunder, etc.

"Huh... Fortunately, the restriction is still intact." After taking a look at the intact restriction entrance, the young man with golden horns breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, the man said solemnly: "After such a long time, no matter whether that person succeeded in overcoming the tribulation or not, he should have left here far away. Let's break the ban quickly. In order to speed up the progress, I will work with everyone this time and strive to break the ban as soon as possible to avoid more trouble at night."

"Yes, special envoy!" A dozen people behind him said in unison.

Then a group of people started to get busy again.
